# Mars in Capricorn
Het Monster: Mars in Capricorn Priceless time is irreversible, And I do not waste it on trifles. Success is promised only by what is obvious And in which I have no doubts whatsoever. A child with Mars in Capricorn will probably be a pragmatist. Do not expect them to waste much time on things they see no practical purpose in. They want tangible results. With a real goal in mind, this child will work very hard, as they are ambitious and desire success, recognition, and rewards for their progress. You will likely find this child remarkably mature and responsible for their age. From the time they start walking, you may sense that they seem a bit older than their years. They tend to follow all established rules and have strong self-discipline. Even in their youth, you will likely be surprised when, after discussing their future career with them, you see them taking real steps toward that goal. Sometimes your Mars-in-Capricorn child may seem too serious, overly pessimistic, or as if they feel blocked. It is probably best for you to allow them to set their own goals. This child’s practical approach may tempt you to push them beyond their real capabilities. They need to feel that the power to achieve their goals lies within themselves. They are likely quite disciplined without any pressure. You should explain to them that sometimes you can break through an obstacle after a pause—that rest and recreation are beneficial. A person returns to their task refreshed, with new energy. Let this child try their hand at music. Playing a musical instrument often proves to be a very valuable outlet, a balancing tool for this serious, goal-oriented nature. Play board games with them. They will likely excel in strategic thinking—a brilliant trait worth nurturing.

In this sign, Mars is exalted; this is the best placement for Mars. I know many people who have this combination in their horoscopes, and all of them are energetic, devoted individuals capable of working selflessly for long hours. These people can handle important, complex tasks; they have good friends; and their family matters sometimes experience periods of disorder. According to Dr. B.V. Raman, the most renowned Indian astrologer, such people “will love luxury, become educated, famous, and possess great zeal.” These individuals work for the benefit of a good cause, and they are invariably helpful to their relatives. In their past lives, these people practiced sacrifices, observed vows of celibacy, and engaged in spiritual service. This position of Mars (like any other planet’s exaltation) in a horoscope must be treated with respect. We can also note the opportunities associated with real estate, mechanical work, mathematics, surgery, sports, military affairs, and other areas governed by Mars.

Here, Mars is a guest of Saturn, who provides excellent concentration. This is the sign of Mars’ exaltation. In this position, you will exhibit concentrated willpower; you may be distinguished by the secrecy of serious actions. Rarely can anyone guess what you will do or initiate next. Generally, you appear completely impenetrable on the surface: neither in words nor in gestures do you reveal your distant intentions. Since Capricorn is associated with high goals and planning, you can calculate in advance what you need to do and what impression you need to make. Usually, you have an excellent combination of strategy and tactics, and you often manage to align long-term and immediate plans. Typically, in conflict, everything is planned out; you take an ironclad position that is very difficult to shake. This position of Mars gives the ability to survive in any conditions and achieve everything. And, as a rule, when necessary, you are ready to work until the very end, even to the point of death. You are likely to display enormous diligence when the matter is worth it, remarkable endurance, and the ability to carve your own path. As an example, it can be noted that Mars in Capricorn is often found in great military leaders. While in battle you are capable of the impossible, in the worst case, you may completely disregard any laws and norms. It is quite possible that you feel no remorse and usually use others coldly as tools for your victory. In the best case, you may selflessly fight for the achievement of some higher goal, for the triumph of a higher Divine Law.

Many military personnel have Mars in Capricorn. They despise bohemianism and do not understand their children who lead a “flawless” lifestyle.

Developed Mars gives an exceptionally hardworking and constructively working Capricorn who can implement fantastically difficult projects and programs alone or with a small team. Initially, however, they need to catch the rhythm of their fate and understand what it wants from them, at least on the surface—something that is not easy in youth, especially when a Capricorn suffers defeat. The Mars-in-Capricorn individual knows how to infect others with their energy, equally constructive and inexhaustible. But this energy is always within them and always demands an outlet; if a Capricorn does not find it, they begin to turn against themselves internally and destroy themselves like a Scorpio, though even more destructively. That is why ideals and a practical goal are so necessary for them. This position of Mars is characteristic of high-ranking military organizers, figures in the military industry, sports administrators, and certain specific sports (marathon, fencing). Underdeveloped Mars complicates a Capricorn’s perception of reality and reduces their flexibility, provoking false initiative, impulsive energetic actions, etc., which, by the law of cause and effect, has severe consequences for the Capricorn. They must master the cautious Capricorn ethic with double attention—something that is quite difficult, especially before the age of 30, but is compensated by the level of subsequent realization and external authority, which, however, is not obvious in youth.

Strong energy in professional matters. Materialists who care about tangible results can support a family. They move slowly but steadily and clearly toward their goal. Politicians. Talent for organization and leadership. Military personnel. They despise bohemians and do not understand their children who lead an idle lifestyle. They may use others to achieve their goals, wasting their humanity. Stinginess, stubbornness, and cruelty.
You pursue your ambitious plans with full responsibility. You are a disciplined, persistent, and energetic person, and your goals are material and concrete. You want to become a great leader, wield significant influence, and command authority. You enjoy being in charge. You are capable of working without rest, sacrificing immediate gratification for long-term plans. In your dedication to work, you can easily cross the line where this dedication becomes painful. You are an exceptionally responsible person; your conscience does not allow you to leave a task unfinished, no matter how small the oversight.
You are an excellent strategist, achieving success by creating a realistic and feasible plan and executing it step by step. Here, you do not take risks or succumb to gambling. You rely on your efforts and perseverance, not on luck. You have natural shrewdness and an instinctive understanding of private enterprise, as well as the ability to manage large businesses.
