Mars in Virgo in the Seventh House

The placement of Mars in Virgo indicates that you have a need for your actions to be perfect. This often manifests itself as a particularization of action. By focusing on small details or by breaking action down into manageable events and then organizing your course of action, you may feel that can control your actions and improve your chances of approximating perfection. This desire for your actions to be seen as correct tends to lead you to internally limit your desires to what is “proper.” This may save you from “wrong” actions. Much of the behavior and many of the personality characteristics associated with Mars in Virgo are a result of your striving for perfection in your actions and desires.

The placement of Mars in Virgo may be complex or ambivalent, as symbolized by the natural quincunx between Virgo and Mars-ruled Aries. Virgo is the Mutable Earth sign. The fine-grained earth of Virgo symbolically forces the Mars energy to be restrained and disciplined, flowing only through circumscribed channels. If the active and self-assertive nature associated with Mars does not chafe at the restriction associated with the Virgo qualities, its energy (and your desires and actions) will be refined, contributing toward your quest for perfection.

Mars also symbolizes the animus in the psyche. Thus, if you are male with Mars in Virgo, you are likely to model your masculinity in order to incorporate characteristics typically associated with Virgo. If you are female, you are likely to be attracted to someone who projects or embodies Virgo-associated traits.

Inseguridades

As an individual with Mars in Virgo, because you are insecure within your inner self, you feel burdened with the ideal of perfection and you feel that you can do nothing right. Your ego knows, however, that if ever Real Perfection is attained, that is its death. So, in fretting about imperfection (in reality, avoiding the quest for the Real Perfection), you may waste your time trying to perfect what is good enough or fix what is unfixable. Or, faced with an internal demand for perfect order, you may revolt, give up trying to attain the ideal and exist in a state of disorder and chaos.

Mars in the 7th House:

Mars in the 7th House suggests that you need to achieve a balance between your need for relación and your need to assert your own will. Traditionally, Mars is in its decline in the 7th House and this placement is often associated with a weak or unassertive will and a submissive nature. The placement of Mars opposite the house that it rules, however, suggests that the path for you to travel, with regard to actualizing your desire/action function, is one of resolving opposites and seeking complements between apparent opposites. With Mars in the 7th House, you may have a tendency, particularly early in life, to be out of balance when it comes to asserting your will within the context of the desires and wills of others.

As an individual with Mars in the 7th House, you are likely to pursue your desires through your involvement in relaciones. The actions that you are most concerned with are likely to take place within relationships or may involve cooperation or partnership with others. One-on-one relationships are likely to be particularly important for you in achieving your goals.  Naturally, when you are operating in this mode, you will tend to treat the desires and motivations of others with consideration. Having Mars in the 7th House, you will likely bend to the will of those with whom you are involved. You realize that your welfare, the attainment of your desires, is dependent upon others and, therefore, you will usually seek to please or gain the favor of others. If carried too far, this could lead to an unbalanced desire/action function. It could even lead to dependence or co-dependence.

Inseguridades

With Mars in the 7th House, if you are inwardly insecure, you will secretly harbor your desires but will not express them without the “permission” of others. Even then, you act only in ways that you believe are sanctioned by your relationship. You may well have no idea what your true desires are. Your actions may be totally dominated by the (perceived) desires of your partner. You may, thus, be perceived as weak-willed and totally under the domination of your partner.

Having Mars in the 7th House, though you do not acknowledge your own desires, they nevertheless exist and will assert themselves, often deviously and perversely. While thinking that you are doing what pleases your partner, you may actually be engaged in achieving your own agenda. Thus, the actions that you perform in the context of your relationship often go awry and conflict between you and your partner is likely to be the result.

With Mars in the 7th House, you may feel that you can never do what is right to please your partner. In fact, often you do not do what will really please the partner. Sometimes your partner’s reaction may be violent or demeaning. With your own desires continually unacknowledged and frustrated, you may be overwhelmed by impulsive and often destructive actions. This may fuel the conflict that exists within your relationship.

As an individual with Mars in the 7th House, sometimes the roles may be reversed. You will over-compensate for your insecurities about your desires and actions and for your fear of being dominated by others. You will preempt these fears by becoming the dominant partner in a relationship. Driven by the need to protect your own self-perceived weakness, you may become particularly aggressive and dominating in your relationships with others.

Enfoque de los deseos

Having Mars in the 7th House, your desires are focused on or through relationships. You have a strong desire for close relationships. You may very well feel that you cannot live happily without being in a relationship. You may see participating in a successful relationship as a primary goal in your life. Consequently, you may work very hard at pleasing your partner and developing the relationship.

With Mars in the 7th House, you are likely to be aware of your partner’s desires and take them seriously.  You may feel that you have very few desires of your own, but that you and your partner’s joint desires are sufficiently motivating. It is not uncommon for you to receive much of your motivation from your partner. The challenge with Mars in the 7th House is for you to learn to express and act upon your own desires within a relationship. This will result in the relationship actualizing as a fuller partnership.
