Mars in Leo

The placement of fiery Mars in the fire sign of Leo works well for you. There is a strong zest for life within you.

 Mars is a good initiator of things, which means you can foster your inner drive to initiate tasks. This complements the fixed quality of Leo which maintains your energy to see tasks that you have started to their completion.

You act with authority and power, and your personal magnetism generally means that you get what you set out to achieve. It can give you great leadership qualities, although you may be over-controlling of others.

Leo is also a very creative sign and in a higher sense Mars has the potential for your creativity to be a vehicle for learning about your true identity spiritually as well as personally. For example, Shakespeare’s work contained much wisdom about the hidden depths of life through his creative plays.

However this placement does come with a tendency to emotionally react without thinking and you can have a fiery temper which quickly subsides.

This is one of the more sexual positions of Mars. In relationships, you demand loyalty and admiration.
