Mars in Virgo

Mars in Virgo means the planet Mars was in Virgo when you were born. Mars spends about six or seven weeks in a sign, and longer when it is retrograde.

Virgo is a mutable earth sign. Mars takes about two years to go round the zodiac. In a chart it is how you act, what you want and how you get angry.

How you act

Precise effort

Your energy may go into getting it right. You probably work in careful, repeated gestures, improving as you go, and feel restless when things are sloppy or left undone. You tend to show strength by being useful. Irritation can build over small things and come out as criticism, often aimed at yourself. Perhaps your drive is a craftsperson's. The rest might be allowing the work to be finished, and yourself to stop.
