Mars in Capricorn in the Eleventh House

The placement of Mars in Capricorn indicates that your desires are likely to be goal oriented and focused on success to a greater extent than is true with most people. Your actions tend to follow your desires, seeking to achieve your goals in the most practical way possible, for you see practicality is the surest route to success. Having Mars in Capricorn, this often manifests as drive and ambition motivating actions that produce results. Much of the behavior and many of the personality characteristics associated with Mars in Capricorn are a result of your need to act in order to achieve your desires and ambitions.

The placement of Mars in Capricorn often produces tension and stress.  This is symbolized by the natural square between Capricorn and Mars-ruled Aries.  However, the tension produced is often constructive, generating energy that is harnessed to produce results. Capricorn is the Cardinal Earth sign. The active earth principle of associated with Capricorn symbolically forces the functions associated with Mars to operate through structure and in practical ways. The will (desire) must be made concrete through action. This may inhibit and stifle the initiative and spontaneity associated with the Mars energy. With Mars in Capricorn, the positive and constructive outcome of restricting the active Mars function is to strengthen it through focus and discipline.

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

Inseguridades

Having Mars in Capricorn, your insecurity is that you do not believe that you are worthy of success and, consequently, your actions are programmed for failure. Yet, there is an inner drive that demands success of you and this only intensifies your insecurity because it engenders a fear of the consequences of your inevitable failure. As an individual with Mars in Capricorn, your ego does not allow you to submit to discipline, which you see as a punishing task-master.  Without discipline, attempts to achieve are without success. Your insecurities and feelings of inferiority may result in “fear of success.” At any rate, you seem to be blocked at every turn. Self-doubt caused by past failures creates a self-perpetuating cycle of failure in which you are trapped. Alternatively, with Mars in Capricorn, you may use your ambition and drive to cover deeper insecurities, overcompensating by your always acting to achieve your ambitions no matter what the cost. This may produce outward “success,” but inward failure and it does not resolve your inner insecurities.

Mars in the 11th House:

Mars in the 11th House suggests that you desire a broader field of action than most people are satisfied with. This may stem from a need to feel socially useful, a desire for recognition, a need to feel part of a group or a concern about the state and future of humanity. Having Mars in the 11th House, the scope of your activity can range from involvement in clubs and other social groups to broad involvement in civic affairs, social causes or even world affairs. Generally, you may feel that you need to make a difference in the world, or your community, and, therefore, you must take action that extends beyond yourself and your own concerns.

With Mars in the 11th House, your actions will also tend to be future-oriented, or designed to have an impact that outlasts yourself. Because of your broad involvement, you may be very busy with activities that are outside the scope of home and work. Although you may have many interests, you will generally be focused and committed once you become engaged in taking action. Because of your orientation toward the future, you may be very good at planning your actions. Having Mars in the 11th House, you are also likely to act more often in group situations than alone.  Sometimes, however, you may be reluctant to take action unless you have the approval of the group. The group, or whatever organization or cause provides you with outward extension, may become a vehicle for propelling and motivating your active energy. In this way, you become more energized and able to accomplish things.

Inseguridades

As an individual with Mars in the 11th House, if you are inwardly insecure, you will find it difficult to maintain your self-esteem without the approval of others. You have very little authentic individual identity and you, therefore, take your identity from your group involvement and from how others see you. You take action within the group that is designed to enhance your own status and draw the attention of the group towards yourself. With Mars in the 11th House, you may act on behalf of the group, generally as its leader or jockeying for a leadership position, but you are really acting on your own behalf. All of your protestations of good will and concern for others are just that. You would really not do anything to benefit anyone unless it did you some good. Your actions never go against the group’s will, for you could not stand to fall out of favor with the group.

Enfoque de los deseos

With Mars in the 11th House, your underlying desire is generally to outlive yourself through your actions having an impact that reaches beyond your own individuality. More specifically, you may desire the recognition and approval of some group or some organization or institution that is greater than yourself. You usually want to feel part of something that is more than yourself. To the extent that you transcend yourself, your desire will be for the welfare of the group to which you belong. The farther you transcend yourself, the wider this group becomes, until it can become all of Creation.
