Mars rules this sign, so here it is in its own sign and strong. These people have a strong mind, considerable determination, and hold respected positions; they may become property owners. They are proud, vengeful, and critical. They may show aptitude for occult sciences or succeed in secret, hidden work. These are energetic, confident people who suffer from insults, fire, and battles.

Here, Mars is in its second, nocturnal domicile, visiting Pluto. This will give you strong will, softened and balanced by intellect and heightened sensitivity. You are likely to have a love for struggle or even harsh and severe trials, though with a certain detachment. For example, on the battlefield, you would probably observe from above or the side. Usually, the heavier the circumstances you face, the stronger you become. You likely have excellent strategic and tactical abilities; your actions are typically clear and deliberate. You may simply sense when and where to strike. Since Scorpio is a Water sign, it gives you strong intuition. You may also be distinguished by exceptionally precise actions, and it is nearly impossible to defeat you. This is one of the strongest positions of Mars. Additionally, your expressions of passion are usually explosive. Generally, your will seeks to achieve the impossible, and in this pursuit and passion, you often care little for yourself. Sometimes you may even cross the boundaries of what is allowed. Your will may manifest in experimenting on yourself, your essence, soul, or body (medical and spiritual experiments thrive on such energy). You are generally not suited to live in calm conditions because then you would feel “bursting” from within, as Mars here visits Pluto, which gives you almost otherworldly activity. If you lack the opportunity to express this activity, you may either suppress yourself and engage in self-destruction (when your aggression turns inward) or lash out at those around you. At times, you may be inclined to destroy everything around you because little satisfies you. You likely perceive life as a field of struggle and seek places to apply your strength. In spiritually undeveloped individuals with a “broken” Mars, cruelty, a tendency toward sadism, and vengefulness after defeats, or a “hardening of the heart,” may emerge. Many rebels against the existing order have also been born with Mars in Scorpio. Often, Mars in Scorpio creates a drive toward professions related to danger or death. You may excel as a tester or stunt performer. You may also exhibit paranormal abilities or even magical talents.
Het Monster. Planets in the Zodiac Signs
A life full of struggle and anxiety. Danger of a violent death through secret enemies. Dangerous wounds. If Mars and Scorpio are in the 6th, 8th, or 12th house—much sorrow through women. With a square or opposition to the Moon and Mercury (and in conjunction with the Moon)—an arrogant, unsympathetic character. With a conjunction or trine to Jupiter and Venus—negative signs significantly diminish. Intense feelings, courage, resilience. Not even death frightens them on the path to their goal. Their motto: “all or nothing.” Strong sexual needs with a weak Saturn—sexual perversions. Vindictiveness. With a heavily afflicted aspect—rudeness, cruelty, a desire to dominate others.
Catherine Aubier. Astrological Dictionary
Actions are secretive, well-thought-out, and precise. Ability to remain in a state of aggression for a long time without letting it show; vindictiveness. A constant spirit of rebellion. Excellent focus, though aggression can sometimes be destructive.

As always when the ruler appears, the sign feels confident in itself; with poor development, this confidence is false. Mars gives Scorpio a sense of colossal inner strength and especially hypnotic abilities. At the same time, this strength demands application, and in its lower octave, it is mostly destructive. Scorpio consumes itself and others, and there is little they can do about it, especially when defeated. Here, development is particularly difficult because Mars in Scorpio creates an inner sense of correctness in what a person does, even (and especially) when their actions are destructive. Indeed, the Martian Scorpio is a natural black teacher, designed to destroy dead forms. As they develop, however, they begin to sense the need to work more subtly and learn to distinguish between the dead and the decayed from the living and growing, which are often closely intertwined. The axe gives way to the plane, but not immediately: in difficult moments, there is a strong temptation to return to the well-tested, simple, yet reliable tool. Mars complicates Scorpio’s perception problem, focusing their attention only on what is accompanied by a strong energetic flow; everything else is difficult for them to perceive, and internally, they value it little. This temptation remains with them for a long time until a final switch to higher energetic flows occurs, though even then, slips are possible. The issue of active behavior is also tied to the rise in energy levels: the Martian Scorpio cannot act weakly; they act strongly—or not at all, though in principle, they can regulate the intensity of the flow. The problem of their inner life is equally acute; they must learn to finely distinguish their lower programs from higher ones and strive not to destructively annihilate the former but to transform them into the latter. The idea of completely and thoroughly reforming oneself, eradicating evil entirely, is unrealizable (and generally impossible).

Mars in Scorpio
Great intensity of feelings, iron courage, and steadfastness. You may reach the highest peaks of spiritual success or plunge into the abyss of moral downfall. Everything depends on wisdom and motivations. Richness of ideas, boldness, energy—especially in difficult situations. Strong sexual needs and magnetism. Marriage brings benefit. Relationships recognize only friendship or enmity. It is difficult to achieve compromise with you. You are silent and secretive. Rudeness or cruelty is possible. You make dangerous enemies. Possible legal troubles, solitude or confinement, unsuccessful travels, accidents, or actions against your will.
You possess an exceptionally strong will. Pursuing a goal, you fulfill your desires passionately, persistently, and decisively. You are capable of absolute concentration and striking self-discipline. Once you make a decision, you are unyielding. No one can sway you. You are obsessed with your desires. Your intuition is highly developed, and sometimes you do not even know why you act in a certain way rather than another. At the same time, you are quite secretive. Others may not immediately see the intensity of your intentions or desires, as you act calmly and restrained. You often manipulate people, compelling them to do what benefits you more than them, yet without displaying aggression.
You dislike clashes and conflicts, but if you encounter active resistance, you become a dangerous opponent. Here, something primitive and primordial awakens in you.
Typical ailments: hemorrhoids, fistulas, venereal diseases, stones, gout, blood poisoning, lice, streptococci, abscesses. You endure illnesses heavily, with fever.
