How Mars Keeps Getting Us into Trouble
Filial Piety Begins or How Mars Keeps Getting Us into Trouble And Neptune Keeps Bailing Us Out
By Rick DiClemente
It’s as if we don’t listen. It’s as if we don’t learn. Maybe we are starting to.
Mars has continuously gotten us into hot water. Mars, the aggressive war-like planet; Astrology’s testosterone-filled red aggressor has historically lied to us. Yes, without a doubt, it has saved us on many an occasion, too. Mars is in all of our charts and certainly is represented in the collective. Its voices such things as: “If you want something, go take it.” “Might equals right.” “Only the strong survive.” It’s what’s left over from Newton’s antiquated 3-dimensional world that worked, for a while, but is now giving way to the quantum arena.
Mars is certainly needed in your chart so that you can fight for yourself, stand up for your rights and gives you the ability to go and get what you need. It is the ego’s right-hand man. If your Mars is weakly placed in your natal chart, well, it just isn’t easy for you to assert yourself and this can bring about a myriad of problems. However, if it is too strong, you will be tempted towards its shadow-side: heavy-handedness and selfishness
We are certainly seeing how the old Martian world is dying (well, many of us are) as we see the inherent truth in what David Hawkin’s book, Power vs. Force, was all about. Force is the illusion that you can bowl something or someone over and somehow benefit. Power is allowing the Universal power/intelligence to work through you. It can’t be defeated. You can’t punch the ocean effectively.
