ALMUTEMMars Square Midheaven
Mars represents your energy, your desire and the courage to act; Midheaven, your vocation, your place in the world and your reputation.
Mars square the Midheaven kindles conflict in the public life: friction with authority, rash ambition, and the risk of staining the reputation through dispute or imprudence. Well governed, it is courage that drives the career forward by main force.
The square places Mars near the Ascendant or the Descendant. Near the Ascendant, the person wants to do everything their own way and clashes with hierarchies and rules; near the Descendant, it is associates, clients or rivals who generate the friction. Tradition warns of a reputation wounded by public quarrels. But Mars also gives initiative, and many with this position end up working for themselves, where their impatience stops being a problem and becomes an engine.
