Mars in Libra in the Third House

The placement of Mars in Libra indicates that you are likely to have desires that spring from a need for social interaction and that your actions are likely to be influenced by your need for social relacionamento and harmony. This often manifests in a certain grace, balance and harmony in your actions because you are motivated to please others and you are careful not to cause social disharmony through your actions. Much of the behavior and many of the personality characteristics associated with Mars in Libra are a result of your desire for and involvement with preserving social harmony.

The placement of Mars in Libra is often problematic. This is symbolized by the natural opposition between Libra and Mars-ruled Áries. Libra is the Cardinal Air sign. Libra’s association with the qualities of balance and harmony generally lead you to be concerned about how your actions may upset others. This hampers the assertiveness that is a function symbolized by Mars and an essential component of the Mars energy. With Mars in Libra, you may often find that you must suppress your own desires and act in an environment of concern for others or even have to act through others. Thus, developing the Mars-symbolized functions to their full potential may be challenging.

Mars also symbolizes the animus in the psyche. Thus, if you are male with Mars in Libra, you are likely to model your masculinity in order to incorporate characteristics typically associated with Libra. This may present some problems, in that Libra is associated with a softer, more passive energy than is typically associated with the masculine.  If you are female, you are likely to be attracted to someone who projects or embodies Libra-associated traits.

Inseguranças

With Mars in Libra, when you are insecure in your selfhood, you are unsure of the role of self in your relation to others. This being the case, you are generally reluctant to be assertive in a relationship, for to be assertive, you must be aware of and confident of your own position. Having Mars in Libra, the result is that your actions are likely to be dominated by others’ desires. It is difficult for you to take independent action and you always seem to be dependent on another for direction. If called upon to take your own action or express your own desires, you cannot and look for someone else to act or to tell you what to do.

Mars in the 3rd House:

Mars in the 3rd House is compatible with its externally directed nature. The 3rd House is associated with early and simple contacts with your environment and with learning about that environment. The outward focus and explorative nature of the 3rd House allows the action principle of the Mars energy to freely assert itself within the limits of a realm with which you come directly in contact.

With Mars in the 3rd House, your desires are likely to be stimulated by your immediate environment. Your actions are likely to be focused on affecting your immediate environment. Much of this contact may involve interaction at the mental level, since the 3rd House is ruled by Mercury. Consequently, much of your energy and activity may be directed toward learning about the world or communicating within the immediate circle of your contacts.

Having Mars in the 3rd House, since so much of your activity involves interaction with the concrete world around you, if your Mars principal is functioning well, you are likely to develop much competency in dealing with the day-to-day aspects of life. Of course, if your Mars energy is dysfunctional, you are likely to find everyday life to be fraught with problems. With Mars in the 3rd House, you are also likely to be assertive in your daily life, especially when communicating with others.

Inseguranças

As an individual with Mars in the 3rd House, insecurities in the Mars function stems from a feeling of weakness and inferiority which is the result of a distorted and overemphasized view of your ego’s role.  This may manifest as either timidity and incompetence or, due to overcompensation, as aggressiveness or overachievement. It will affect you at both the desire and action levels.

When focused in the 3rd House, the dysfunctional energy readily finds it  outlet in your interaction with the environment. At the desire level, you may be insufficiently motivated due to your belief that you cannot overcome a hostile environment. Or, you may have improper desires, which are either suppressed or which require you to act aggressively toward their fulfillment. At the activity level, with Mars in the 3rd House, you may feel thwarted in your actions by the environment or by your inability to take competent action with respect to it. Consequently, you may withdraw from active involvement in every-day life.

At the other extreme, having Mars in the 3rd House, you may be impelled to assert your will onto your immediate environment and act over-aggressively towards it. Whether this has good or bad effects on others and society depends on your relationship to your superego. Whether you act the hero or the villain, you will suffer distraction and imbalance in your inner life because of your absorption with affecting the world through your actions.

Foco dos desejos

With Mars in the 3rd House, your desires will be associated with your immediate environment. The link between the senses and desire – which is their natural association – will be even more prevalent. Paradoxically, this link being so obvious enables you to more easily control the desire/sense complex, if you truly wish to do so.

Normally, however, as an individual with Mars in the 3rd House, your desires will arise from your experience. You may easily be susceptible to verbal suggestion. A yearning for immediate gratification of desire is also common with this placement. More positively, you may focus your desire on learning – acquiring knowledge about your environment. With Mars in the 3rd House, you are likely to have a desire to communicate, which will be positively expressed as long as you have something worthwhile to communicate. Otherwise, your communication is simply asserting your ego.
