A. Podvodny: Sextile Mars – Jupiter
Sextile of Mars: Work may be a burden or a necessity, but never a dishonorable pursuit. The sextile of Mars gives the individual an opportunity to refine and raise the vibrational level of the energetic flow inherent to the Planet. This opens prospects for constructive activity, during which the Planet (and Mars itself) is effectively integrated, and the person learns to align their strength and energy with the needs of the Planet—presenting certain difficulties and requiring effort, though not perceived as excessive. However, if the individual instead rejects all possibilities for constructive activity related to the Planet, after some time they will feel that their inner energy finds no satisfying outlet, becomes stagnant, and may eventually lead to depression, feelings of inferiority, or sudden disharmonious energy outbursts (aggression from the external environment).
From the standpoint of inner life, this aspect allows raising the frequency of one’s own energy system, occurring through interaction and visible adaptation of subconscious programs related to the Planet, and energetic, particularly ancient instincts, which thereby acquire a more civilized form. Here, integration enables channeling destructive and low-level energy from the external world into constructive frameworks. For example, a well-integrated Mars–Pluto sextile may produce an educator working with antisocial teenagers.
Sextile of Jupiter: Brilliant opportunities are better given than taken. Credit must be given to Jupiter: any of its aspects (especially major ones) to a Planet expands possibilities within its spheres completely free of charge; the only question is how to properly respond and wisely manage them. The sextile of Jupiter gives the person an interest in expanding the areas ruled by the Planet and a deeper understanding of its principle in both outer and inner life. Jupiter will offer numerous favorable opportunities, presenting them with its characteristic grandeur. Yet the person who assumes that, just as the horn of plenty began to operate, it will continue effortlessly, is greatly mistaken. Personal effort will be required; brilliant prospects will demand corresponding work for realization (Jupiter will certainly assist along the way, but assistance will still require some form of payment, just as one must reciprocate help from unexpected benefactors).
The sextile of Jupiter is beneficial in that it expands the possibilities and forms of work and provides a deeper, broader understanding of the Planet’s principle—especially if the sextile is actively integrated. Characteristic of Jupiter’s sextile is that the person receives opportunities on credit, often required to repay in indirect ways (not on a “you give to me, I give to you” basis, but rather “you give to me, I give to someone else”), which is not always easy for the person to understand. At a low level, the individual perceives Jupiter’s sextile as a trine and attempts to absorb all advances without giving anything in return, leading to unpleasant consequences—particularly, seemingly excellent opportunities suddenly and permanently closing. The person then feels unjustly treated by fate, often accompanied by a major aspect hinting at megalomania. Integrating the sextile means not only greatly expanding and effectively utilizing the Planet’s spheres of influence, but also contributing numerous promising developments to the external world.
