What does Mars mean?
Mars is not just about your temper, but how you exert force, strive for, cut in, protect boundaries, express desires, and how to push energy into action when facing resistance.
Mars is the force that pushes your “I want” into reality
If Venus is about liking, Mars is about reaching for it. It represents direct effort at the level of action, advancement, competition, cutting, striving, and survival. The presence of Mars often determines whether a person will rush forward, go around, endure it when encountering a problem, or whether he will accumulate it first and then explode. It is a very realistic energy interface, because without Mars, many wishes cannot be realized at all.
Mars is not a subsidiary impulse, but a part of the actual execution ability.
Look at Mars, not just for anger, but for how you use your power
Some people's Mars is very direct, and they hit the target as soon as it comes; some people's Mars is more hidden, observing first, then arranging, and finally exerting force; some people use Mars in competition, and some people use Mars in protection and defense. What's really important about Mars is "how to use your power", rather than simply and crudely judging your temper. It can tell you how a person deals with resistance, desires, and boundaries, and it can also see why action sometimes gets stuck or detours.
If you can look at Mars, you can often understand a person's attitude towards life.
Where does your strength come in handy, and where is it most likely to go awry?
The most noteworthy thing about Mars is not just the word "action", but those particularly real situations: why you always retreat when you should fight, why you easily go too far when you are in a hurry, why you are embarrassed to ask for it even though you have desires, and why you regret it first in every conflict.
When these experiences are translated into clear structures, you will know better what your power language is and become better at using it.
