Strong Mars in the 1st House

A planet is considered to be strong when in its own sign, exalted, or in a friendly sign. Jupiter, Sun, and Moon are the friendly planets. And Saturn, Rahu, Ketu, Venus, Mercury are considered enemies.

Mars owns the rulership of signs Aries and Scorpio in the natural zodiac. Aries is the first sign of the natural zodiac and is the fiery sign and very impulsive, spontaneous, and action-oriented.

Whereas Scorpio is the 8th lord of the natural zodiac and is a watery sign. This sign governs things that are mysterious, undercover, or even suspicious.

Now most important part to check the strength of a planet is that these two signs owned by mars should not fall in the Dukh Sthana like the 6th house, 8th house, and 12th house.

And if these two signs get the rulership of Lagna, 11th house, Kendra or Trikona then they get power to make a raj yoga. Here in addition if Mars gets (PAC) position, aspect, conjunct with a friendly sign, own sign, or even exalted sign then it gives amazing results.

Weak Mars in the 1st House

Mars will be considered weak if with Malefic planets like Rahu, Ketu, Mercury, and Saturn. And even if with planets, it is inimically related like Venus. plus the lordship of the 6th house, 8th house, and 12th house.

Thus if Mars is the 6th lord, and the 8th lord and posited in Lagna, then it can give you health issues, and if in inimical sign then it can make the person aggressive, and clever, and stubborn. Here this type of Mars will work on lower principles. He is selfish, quarrelsome, argumentative, and can be even violent at times if there are more afflictions.

Mars in 1st House can give secret affairs

The 8th Lordship Mars can bring secret affairs to your character. It gives a daring attitude, and if with Rahu or Saturn, it can also give a criminal mindset. Such people use their intelligence to cause harm and to be brutal. They are prone to depression if a weak Moon also connects to this irritated Mars.

Such people lose their temper very fast and are out of control, perhaps creating drama. They believe in attaining things by hook or by crook. Since they don’t believe in moral values and ethics. Also, they will never bother about the emotions of others for their benefit.

In my experience, such people do what they want in Mars period but when Jupiter takes the power they get results of their Karma in the form of chronic illness or some major setbacks.

The 12th lordship of Mars is weak but cannot cause harm unless it has other afflictions. This Mars can make a person spendthrift, research-oriented, and also have great imaginative or intuitive skills. Since the 12th house depicts your hidden talent. They can be spiritual, as well since the 12th house is the last Moksha house. Hence this Mars in 1st house can make a person settle abroad, dive into mediations, become philanthropists, or join different religious organizations.

A weak Mars in the 1st house, actually makes the person irritated and restless all the time. It will not allow a person to stay in one job for long due to its hasty decisions.

But even this kind of Martian person can get involved with machine-related jobs like factory machines or some industry where more laborious work is required. Also jobs like hair saloon, tailor, or even carpenter.
