How you feel about Mars placements depends in large part on how you feel about Mars as a planet and what it stands for. In classical astrology it was known as the “lesser malefic”—a bad-news planet, signifying conflict and violence. Wherever it showed up in the chart was where you would have these things in your life.

And, indeed, Mars does stand for self-assertion, and points to our initiative, competitiveness, and our willingness to fight. Its placement by sign and house indicates what kinds of things make us angry, what causes we’re willing to fight for, and where conflict is likely to arise in our life. In the 8th house, the issues will be around shared resources and shared values. When we enter into a close relationship such as marriage, we need to work out how we’re going to manage things together, as a team. How we handle things like money, sex, chores, and child-raising is no longer up to us individually, but becomes a shared issue that we will have to work out and, probably, keep working out.

A basic meaning of Mars in the 8th is reliance on other people’s resources in order to fulfill one’s own personal goals. If everyone is happy with the arrangement, then this can be fortunate—“good”—indeed, for then you have the chance to do your thing while enjoying the support of others. If you’re a pimp living off the avails of prostitutes, then that is not so good; but if you’re doing artistic or charitable work with the use of others’ resources, then perhaps that’s the only way for the work in question to get done.

Mars in the 8th might also point to someone who can act effectively on others’ behalf with respect to their resources, with things like investing and wealth management. It also suggests a heightened sexual and creative nature, and many people would regard these things as good.

As ever, the aspects to Mars will be important in showing how it will manifest in any given case. Hard aspects will tend to bring out the conflict side of these issues, while flowing aspects will bring out the supportive and harmonious sides.

The operation of Mars, more than that of any other planet, depends on how selfish we are. In a basic sense it is the planet of selfishness. We all have a selfish side, as well as certain self-interests that are entirely legitimate and just; all these are ruled by Mars. The 8th house puts all this to the test, in a sense, since it rules other people’s things and other people’s issues. The highest use of Mars in the 8th, I suppose, is in finding win-win situations. I suspect that the placement of Mars in this house gives one special ability to do this.

All other things being equal, the Leo man might be drawn to different kinds of women for different reasons. His nature is that of the lion, so some women may be “prey” to him: conquests that he enjoys hunting down. Leo is an amorous sign and quite given to erotic adventures. He might “like” these prey women—but is that the sort of interchange you’re looking for?

If you’re thinking about longer-term mating, then you need to be the lioness to his lion. This doesn’t necessarily mean that you need to be a Leo yourself; but you will be helped by having certain qualities of passion, strength, and boldness. The Leo man tends to have a big ego, and you need to recognize and feel comfortable with that. It’s okay to challenge and fight him sometimes; indeed, he likes women who are feisty and hot-blooded. But at the end of the day he needs to know that he’s the king, and even the queen must ultimately defer to him. You’ll do much better to join as his fearless and trusty ally against whatever external adversaries he may have; then you’ll be in with him behind the shield of his ego, and he may well regard you as his indispensable companion. Maybe even without knowing it, a Leo man likes a woman who is smart and tactful about dealing with his ego.

If massaging a man’s ego is something that sticks in your gorge, then the Leo man is probably not for you. But if you’re open to this idea, then relating with a Leo man can have big benefits. For one thing, he’s among the most romantic of men, and is not shy or backward about expressing his feelings. Of all men, he’s the most likely to make passionate declarations of love—and to mean them. If you like being wined, dined, and given presents, this could be your guy. He knows how to make you feel special. He’s generous, warmhearted, and fun to be with. Is he temperamental and maybe even a big baby at times? Well, yeah, but it’s all in a day’s work for the lioness.

Of all men, Leo is the one who will most make you feel like a queen. If you remember that the king is always number 1, then you should get along with him just fine.

Okay, astro snapshot time:

Moon in Leo: Most likely, your mother was a proud woman and you drew in pride through her milk. Pride can manifest in various ways, from the subtle to the obvious, but your earliest emotional programming taught you that you are someone special and that you deserve to be paid attention to and, yes, deferred to. Naturally warm, generous, and fun-loving, you may find it hard to express or even to acknowledge feelings that are ignoble or unworthy: things like neediness, shame, fear, or envy. Those are for lesser people—ordinary people. You love applause and you expect to be in charge.

Scorpio Ascendant: You grew up in an environment that you did not experience to be safe, and learned early to watch your own back. The people responsible for your well-being—like your own mother—let you down or betrayed you, giving you serious difficulties around the issue of trust. You learned how to read people without letting them read you, learned how to press their buttons or twist their knobs to get them to act the way you needed them to act. You probably keep a poker face and rarely smile. You’re conflicted inside because you want relationships that are close, intimate, and caring, but you can’t help keeping people at arm’s length, not letting them into your world.

Sun in Capricorn: Your mission in life will be related to the Capricorn themes of ambition, social ascendancy, and managing sometimes limited resources. Your view of the world may have been shaped by early experiences of lack, including the experience of your own father, who may have been distant, unavailable, a task master, or a disappointment to you. These things may have embittered you, but they have also made you resourceful and given you staying power. With your Scorpio Ascendant, you are probably a very effective and even formidable person who achieves his or her goals. With your sunshiny Moon in Leo, people mostly don’t realize what a tough customer you are.

Jupiter, Saturn, and Rahu cooking up right now?

First, these planets cause changes or disruptions in the areas of work (Saturn), education (Jupiter) and the health sector (Rahu, which pushes towards total reform in one or the other of these important sectors).

The planet Saturn also lifts the veil on mistreatment and the lack of care.

What you may not know is that this harsh reality had to come out in the open so that a great transformation or reform could finally take place.

A beautiful renewal is looming on the horizon.

It will not snap into place, but a political will is watching over it.

When the planet Rahu steps in!

If your current job is boring or doesn’t challenge you enough, Rahu will alter the circumstances, changing the course of your destiny.

This is the case with many signs of the zodiac right now.

At best, you invest yourself in completely new things while learning on the “do the job” by doing, not a strategy.

Doing a good job becomes synonymous with resourcefulness, momentary inspiration or instant creation.

Quite a challenge!

Some people get involved in joint ventures or cooperate to help and support the health system or elder care.

The new trend is that no matter what performing art you do, you want to feel free to express your style and originality on the web.

Rahu opens the door to the possibilities offered by the virtual.

In teleworking, research is turning to the possibility of introducing new projects, programs or incentives to stimulate the economy despite the confinement.

Or several other zodiac signs must move to a department or branch in the same workplace.

The important thing to remember is that all of this will generate beauty and goodness shortly.

The planet Saturn imposes borders, important limits, but which will not last in time.

Many will find work and rebuild their financial and/or material health.

In some cases, Saturn prompts you to embrace an entirely new vocation, which intrigues or interests you.

Now is a good time to take on any training that would give you new skills or perspectives.

That said, and if you can, keep your old job until you find a job to replace the one you have, or until you have enough training to jump into new businesses.

The nature of Rahu is science, technology or the realm of computers, research and great discoveries.

Its current position bodes well.

Over the weeks, we went into captivity: the world has almost stopped spinning.

Great Saturn!

Many people realize that their relationship is not going anywhere.

Otherwise, domestic and family violence wreaks havoc or disagreements are geysers that explode with force.

Some couples, therefore, find themselves under high relational tension, which can be quite scary!

The time has therefore come to take good care of ourselves and, if necessary, use the tools and therapeutic care that are available to us to give our existence a backbone.

On the astrological advice of the planet Saturn, according to its degree of positioning on the great wheel of the zodiac: “At this point, the future interacts with the present to free it from the inertia of the past.

On the threshold of our immediate future, we are allowed to have a vision, a revelation, essential elements of the next and still unknown stage of our evolution.

The keyword is MEDIATION.

Above all, trust life!

So if you have a Stressful time then The breathing exercise that will help you relax

Life today has become more stressful than in any other era.

What if you had a way to relax, immediately and without any effort?

Get a breathing exercise that will require you one minute a day and will do wonders

We all need tools to help us relax, especially today when life has become more stressful than any other era.

Even before the Corona life was stressful – data overload, endless statements on social media, a continual stream of news to the mobile device and constant tension to be available.

Add to that stress at work, payments, rent, marital relationships, relationships with parents or children – and we quickly realize that we are not in a simple situation.

On top of all this, we add contemporary events like war, corona, difficult street conversation and personal fears, alongside a lack of sleep and a desire to make ends meet as much as possible.

No wonder we do not collapse.

Stress is not necessarily a bad thing.

When it came to moderation, pressure could do us good and bring out the best in us.

Studies from the last decade like the one done show that limited time pressure improves memory and increases alertness.

But like so many things in our time, we have no control over the sources of stress – and the shortlist we mentioned here includes at best only half of the things that bother us.

Over time, this endless stress leads us to illnesses, mental strain and burnout that can lead to momentary breakdown and even heart disease.

It’s time to say enough.

Like we must listen to our body, our psyche and stop.

To continue on the path we are in is only madness and will only harm us and those around us.

We have a duty, to ourselves and to the people we love, to return control to our hands and regulate that pressure.

We must find a way that will allow us not only to deal with stress but also to clear from the table all the stressors that do not contribute to us but only harm.

In other words, we need clarity of thought so that we can decide what is important and what is not.

Under pressure every problem seems big, every problem seems important and even if it is not a problem – we are still dealing with commitments or events that we promised to reach.

Without clarity of thought, we cannot filter.

What do most people who want to relax do?

Take advantage of the weekend for parties or events.

Going to the sea, travelling for walks or in other words adding more commitments and demands on their body and mind.

This is not the way to relax.

This is not the way to take control back.

This is not the way to reach clarity of thought.

The truth is that the technique is relatively simple.

So simple that it’s hard for people to believe it’s all there is to it – and so they refuse to use it and look for more complex tricks and tools.

You guessed it, it only adds to the stress.

The truth is that in this case, you have nothing to lose: the technique requires one minute a day, that’s all.

If you make sure to do it every day, you will see changes in your behaviour, your choices and your ability to deal with situations.

Moreover, once this technique is mastered, it can (and should) be used at peak moments to clear the pressure cloud.

The exercise can be performed anywhere.

Even in the middle of the day on the chair in the office.

If you can close your eyes, fine but not obligatory.

Ready?

1. Take a deep breath for a count of five.

2. Hold the air for a count of three.

3. Exhale orally for a count of five.

4. Hold and do not breathe for a count of three and then repeat this pattern.

This special breathing is performed for one minute every day.

The solution is to breathe properly.

Why Is It Important?

Bottom line we are not breathing properly.

Most people in the Western world do not breathe properly.

We breathe flat breaths and do not put enough oxygen into the brain and muscles, which in itself adds to the pressure and does not detract from it.

When we breathe according to the pattern we have presented here, we first slow down our pace.

Second, we put more air into the lungs, more oxygen into the body, and allow it to regulate itself better.

Using this technique daily lowers stress, reduces blood pressure and contributes to the clarity of thought that is so important to us.

Beyond that, daily practice of this breathing will allow us to make it a habit and in moments of unbearable stress, we can immediately stop and use the technique to relax and look at what lies ahead without the blurring fog of stress.

Within 30 days you will see a change in the way you deal with things, in your attitude and even in your posture.

It is almost tragic to know that such a simple technique that benefits people is no longer in use.

We encourage you to try the technique because you have very little to lose and so much to gain.

I have done broad research on denial of marriage in astrology and found out some key combinations to check the denial or no marriage yoga in any chart. These combinations must be seen in D1 and further D9 and D60 must give the confirmation.

Here are the key yogas:

Ketu is a separative and a saintly planet (who doesnt want to acquire relationship desires) and when it combines with venus or close to ascendant or 7th house cusp with 5 degrees, it is the first indication of denial of marriage in a chart.
If ketu is present in ascendant of D1 and D9 chart both with venus in affliction, then it clearly means the person would live a single life forever and will never marry
If the nakshatra lord and sub lord of 7th house cusp is no way connected with 2,7 or 11 house then there is no marriage yoga in person’s chart
If 7th lord goes in 12th house of isolation with ketu then the chances of no marriage is more
If 7th lord is aspected by many malefics like ketu and saturn, the chances of marriage is less
In some rare texts, ascetism or sanyas yoga is given which are given below:

Very strong Moon and lagna/lagna lord with no house being majorly afflicted
Presence of four or more planets (none being combust) in the same house
A strong mahapurush yoga or a mahabhagya yoga along with any indications of sanyas
Venus being aspected by Saturn alone, being debilitated in Navamsa but strong in all other divisions.
Venus conjoined moon with malefics likes saturn & mars in the 8th house makes a great sanyasi yoga
