Mars in Pisces

Mars in Pisces acts by feeling and by flow. Drive is diffuse, intuitive and easily discouraged; energy comes in tides and is best spent on art, care and the sea. Anger is swallowed and turns into sadness or evasion. This is the placement of the healer and the dreamer. The work is to aim at something, to finish it, and to let the anger out as anger.

In plain words

Mars stands for your drive and your temper. In Pisces, that works in a Pisces way: gentle, dreamy and easily swept along. You feel what others feel and need time alone to recover.
