According to astronomical facts the Mars is the fourth planet from the Sun and the immediate next one from the Earth in order of distance. Both the earth and the Mars follow elliptical orbits and Mars’s orbit being much larger than that of the earth, the distance between the earth and the Mars is not always the same; the maximum and minimum distances are 401 million km and 54.6 million km respectively and, the average distance is about 225 million km. It is called red planet because it looks red from the earth.
In astrology Mars is called as the planet of war; Venus is called the planet of peace and love. Mars vs. Venus: war and peace. Mars is a masculine and natural malefic planet. In the zodiac it rules the signs Aries and Scorpio.
The Aries’ Mars signifies steadfastness and quick action. He is sanguine and agile. On the other hand, the Mars of Scorpio is a mental warrior; he strongly builds up its defensive wall before it attacks another.
He is the reservoir of tremendous dynamic energy and rules over our animal instincts for survival, sexual urge and aggression. We know that every planet possesses triple aspects: Positive, negative and neutrality. For its positive qualities, the Martian energy represents our enthusiasm, optimism, freedom, pride, independence, sovereignty, courage, bravery, victory, valour, guts, determination, confidence, rationality, sympathy, adventurous activities, and action.
In its negativity, it stands for idleness, recklessness, hopelessness, impulsiveness, assertiveness, timidity, cowardice, accidents, wounds, bruises, cuts, injuries, penetration, cruelty, meanness, malice, adamant and rigidity of nature, short temper, quarrelsome nature, arrogance, argumentative and aggressive in every point of nature, indecisiveness, defeat (in wars, any competitions) In fact, devoid of positive Martian energy, the mankind would just remain idle, hopeless and disinterested to action.

In the planetary cabinet in Vedic Astrology, the Sun and the Moon are assigned the position of King and Queen respectively and the Mars attains the position the General.
