In response to emergency-conflict situations aggressive thoughts and feelings race through your mind and aggressive hormones prepare your body for energized effort and fast action. You take the initiative, move quickly, speed, go on the attack, throw a tantrum, scream, yell or hurl abuse. Whatever… it’s just your aggressive urge responding to what’s going on.

Your chart’s planet power summary measures two sets of Mars data. One, his relative power or strength, is fixed and constant; and two, his harmony or discord, is most likely variable.

The position of Mars on your chart’s planet power summary allows you to rate his influence as prominent, non-prominent or weak.

If Mars has the highest astrodyne score he’s your dominant planet and he’s the dominant influence in your life. If Mars has a percentage score above 8.3% you should rate him prominent. It indicates that Mars is having an above average – prominent – influence in your life. If Mars has a percentage score below 8.3% you should rate him non-prominent. And if Mars has a very low percentage score you should rate him weak.

There’s a direct correlation between the strength of Mars and the frequency at which you experience aggressive thoughts, feelings and impulses.

The harmony or discord of Mars allows you to rate his functionality as harmonious or discordant.

If Mars has a harmony score you should rate your aggressive urge as harmonious and your aggressive thoughts and feelings as constructive and effective. They’re embedded with harmonious psychokinetic power that inclines towards construction, less damaging strife and misadventure and favorable outcomes in conflict situations.

If Mars has a (-) discord score you should rate your aggressive urge as discordant and your aggressive thoughts and feelings as destructive and ineffective. They’re embedded with discordant psychokinetic power that inclines towards destruction, strife, mishap, misadventure and unfavorable outcomes in conflict situations.

But the harmony or discord score won’t be absolute and it’s likely that amid the harmony there’s discord and amid the discord there’s harmony. Whatever… the net Mars harmony or discord score allows you to rate the functionality of your not-conscious aggressive thinking. There’s a correlation between the two.

Mars discord requires careful management and you should create a Mars harmony-discord profile that details the Mars aspects in harmony/discord order. The Mars aspect structure in your birth chart allows you see life situations where your aggressive thoughts, feelings and actions are inclined to be effective and beneficial or ineffective and harmful.

You’ve been influenced by your Mars culture too. You’ve been trained to express your aggression in a gender appropriate way. And it’s highly likely that you’ve grown up and live in a culture defined by aggressive confrontation, competition, winning, conflict, violence, guns, danger, anger, harshness, hate, abusive sex, foul language, alcohol, gambling, haste and urgency which influences what you think, feel, say and do.
