Mars in Capricorn in the Sixth 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 Áries.  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.

Inseguranças

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 6th House:

Mars in the 6th House suggests that, though you may engage in many externally directed actions, the ultimate aim of your activity is to improve yourself and, particularly, to refine the rough edges of your personality. The 6th House symbolizes the gradual shift of focus from self to other. Consequently, you desire to present to others an image and a person that lives up to your own ideals and values. Consciously or subconsciously, therefore, having Mars in the 6th House, your actions are designed to make you a more suitable person for social contact and social interaction.

As an individual with Mars in the 6th House, this often involves you learning more humility and learning how to subordinate your own desires to the will of others. Therefore, the desire/action function may not appear to be particularly strong in you. It may appear that you are suppressing your own desires and acting on other people’s desires or wishes. In actuality, you are manifesting your deeper desire to sublimate your ego in order to gain the favor and respect of others.

Inseguranças

With Mars in the 6th House, if you are inwardly insecure, you will continually find yourself in subservient positions and you will chafe at your lack of ability or opportunity to actualize your own desires. You will be frustrated at the restrictions that are placed on you and at how you have to work and obey others in order to obtain what you want to have. To willingly submit appears to you like admitting defeat. In truth, having Mars in the 6th House, you do not want to submit out of fear that your own individuality will disappear and be consumed in serving the will of others.

Having Mars in the 6th House, you are not so secure of your own identity that you feel you can maintain your integrity as a slave of the will of others. Out of this fear of submission, you often attempt to control your circumstances and your own actions. You may become obsessed or absorbed in the detail of exerting control and not letting anything get out of your control. Since the world is ever fluid and since so many  circumstances are beyond your control, with Mars in the 6th House, your level of frustration is bound to show  itself through either loss of temper, or scattered, wild or neurotic activity, or further  attempts to obsessively maintain control.

Foco dos desejos

As an individual with Mars in the 6th House, you are likely to have a desire, either conscious or subconscious, to achieve perfection. You may therefore experience a constant desire for self-improvement.  Sometimes, this may manifest as never being satisfied with yourself or the level to which you have attained. Thus, you may experience more the frustration than fulfillment. You may also have a desire for health, good working conditions and relations and, generally, to be thought of as a good and competent person.
