In
the Zodiac, ANGARAKA or MARS is regarded as a God of
martial character, red in every aspect. Even the Romans
held him as their Guru. In the Zodiac, He is the Lord
of "Mesha" and "Vrischika". He stays
1 1/2 months in each Rasi taking 18 months to complete
the cycle.
A
prayer to this planet frees one from debts, poverty
and illness afflicting the skin. This graha bestows
property and conveyance (Locomotion). A prayer to Angaraka
can restore loss of eyesight. Tuesdays are intended
for the worship of Angaraka who loves the chanting of
Sama Veda. If one observes the fast on Tuesday for 21
times, the unlucky influence of Tuesday (Mangal) can
be got rid off. The legend that depict the influence
of the worship of MANGAL goes as follows, and is narrated
whenever a worship or offering is made to the deity.
Mars is activity and will activate whatever 'house'
it is in or wherever Aries appears on your chart. These
will be the departments of your life where you participate.
Mars also brings trouble and arguments to these areas.
Sometimes you are too quick in these areas and don't
stop to think or give others a chance to keep up with
you. Mars in the third house, for example, would mean
that you like to pass all the other cars on the road.
Mars can be physical participation or mental participation,
depending on the sign or house it is in. An air sign
tends toward mental participation. Mars will fight for
what it wants, again, physically or mentally.
This is the area of your performance, your accomplishments,
and the manner in which you handle them. It is the direction
in which your energy travels, what kind of energy you
have, and what you want the energy to do.
Mars rules the sign Aries and therefore retains all
the characteristics of that sign as well as of the first
solar house.
Mars rules weapons (such as guns or knifes), cars (along
with the planet Mercury), the army (or other ground
fighting force), athletics, and in general all physical
activity and motion.
Sun
being the king of solar system, Mars is the commander.
Mars indicates martial powers, martial arts and influences
energy, drive, administrative spirits and leadership
abilities. Both Sun and Mars produce heat, difference
being Sun has a life preserving heat and the explosive
heat generated by Mars might endanger the lives. Mars
rules over the bone marrow and generation of red blood
corpuscles, human blood, and the disease resistant power
of human body. Mars rules Aries, openly aggressive,
and Scorpio, secretive in nature.
