Mars in Capricorn · the character of drive
Mars in Capricorn
Mars is the character of your effort: how you want, how you push, and how you burn when you're crossed.
Mars in Capricorn — from your Starborn reading
Ambition with a long fuse, that's the shape of it here. Drive is exalted in this ground: you climb methodically, one handhold at a time, and the summit you're eyeing is usually one nobody has noticed you eyeing. Effort is disciplined to the point of self-denial; you postpone almost any pleasure for a result. Anger runs cold, not hot, the withheld approval, the dry remark that lands like a dropped stone, the door quietly closed. This is control, and control is your strength until it becomes the whole personality. At your best, you're the one still building when the noisy starters have gone home.
