What it feels like

Doing things in a way people will remember is half the fun for you. Effort for its own sake feels thin, while effort with heart in it feels like the whole point. Creative work, performing, leading and playing all switch your engine on. There is a sunny bravery here, the kind that steps forward when the room goes silent and someone asks for volunteers.

Pride is the hinge of your temper. A slight to your honour lands hard, and you may roar before you think, though you rarely stay angry once someone offers a genuine apology. Loyalty runs deep in you. Standing up for a friend in public is one of your favourite ways to be brave, and you do it with style.

Your gift

Heart. You make other people braver simply by going first and making it look fun.

Your growing edge

Wounded pride. A small snub can feel like a coronation that got cancelled.

In love

You court in grand gestures and you want to be adored back, loudly and often.

In your work

Leading, creating or performing brings out your best, especially when your effort is seen and appreciated.

How Mars works

Mars shows how you go after what you want, how your anger moves and where your courage lives. Its sign describes the style of that drive, from charging straight in to simmering patiently for months. Think of it as your engine and your fire, with the sign telling you what fuels it.
