Mars Transit In Capricorn

Planetary transit cycle of 2024 is going to witness a power transit which is going to create quite intense results.

The transit, I am talking about is none other than Mars, which is entering in the sign of Capricorn on 4th of February 2024.

Capricorn sign is the tenth sign in natural zodiac scheme and is the sign where Mars achieves exaltation.

Capricorn sign lord is Saturn and Mars is its enemy. In astrology, Saturn represents hard work, obstacles, diseases, misery, and pains whereas Mars is prime karaka of war and anger.

Saturn is already present in the sign of Aquarius since 24th January 2023. This means Mars transit there is directly going to affect our lives in deeply manner and if Mars is afflicted in your horoscope then Mars transit in Capricorn can cause issues in your life.

NOTE: Mars transit in Capricorn is very important this year because Mars will be in Capricorn at very crucial stage when world is already dealing with wars and political instability.

Mars in medical astrology represents blood, physical injuries, anger, and violence. In sign of Saturn, planet Mars is very powerful and right around that time Saturn is going combust also.

Mars is a natural malefic planet and tends to create negative results if afflicted. On another hand, Mars can produce Rajyoga when in a planetary relationship with a benefic or yoga karaka planet. It is very important to understand that Mars rules over Aries and Scorpio zodiac in a Horoscope. Which means we have to consider the lordship of Mars and other basic points which are stated below.

• Mars achieves exaltation in Capricorn zodiac.
• Mars is enemy to the lord of Capricorn zodiac lord Saturn.
• Mars will tend to destroy the house where it is sitting.
• Mars have additional aspects which are 4th, 7th and 8th.
• Generally, Mars gives good results in 3rd, 6th, 10th and 11th house but still we do need to see other factors also.

Most important here is that we should look into ashtakvarga calculation of Mars and while decoding this transit results a good weightage to the ashtakvarga bindus in the house where Mars is transiting should be given.

If these bindus are more than 28 than results will be favorable and if more than 30 then the results will be fabulous.

Also, check if retrograde Mars transit in Capricorn is going over 22nd Drekkana or 64th Navamsha.

Any malefic planet like a retrograde Mars over these sensitive points results in injuries or health issues.

Though it is sure that the final outcome of all the work done during this phase will be good and effective for your career progress. It can be said as an auspicious transit for sportsmen and politicians but still, there will be a delay in getting results for them also.

This period can prove good for those who earn their bread and butter through business. Mars transit will give them strength to expand and explore their financial horizons. Losses are seen if you stretch your luck beyond possible limits. This period of Mars is not looking auspicious for marriage and relationships and if you are looking for the match then you have to wait until it is over.

Effects On Sagittarius Ascendant

For Sagittarius ascendant there is a wide confusion over its inherent functional nature, it is best you read this article for it. 

For purpose of this article I am considering Mars as a benefic planet for them and during its transit in Capricorn sign Mars will be transiting over their 3rd house.

For Career, Mars Transit in Capricorn seems to be negative to me. There will be a hindrance to your growth and success. You may feel overburdened with work and responsibilities. It is best you take a break during this period because Saturn, Rahu and Ketu transits are not looking auspicious either.

The second house in a Horoscope rules over wealth and since Mars is going in Capricorn, it is best you keep a check on your expenses. 

Your earning will decline to die this period and no efforts for the increase in it are going to help you. Family assets may go under disputes and you may find yourself fighting for your share in inheritance. Though chances of success in it are quite low and may end up wasting your time, efforts and money into it.

The second house where Mars is going is 8th from 7th house and Mars generally does not give good effects here. Which means you may face unhappy with your spouse during this period. Marital disharmony will be there which will affect your work abilities. Those who are looking for marriage may find the support of luck on their side.

Again second house is a maraka house and being 12th house lord Mars is not welcome here. You may indulge in smoking and drinking and this could affect your health in the long run. There are chances of physical injuries also especially around the last week of August.

Your seniors may not like you and even your workmate may conspire against you.

A mistake done in past can come and haunt you during this time. You should try not to hold enmity with anyone in your workplace and try to pass this time with caution and patience.

Technical exaltation of Mars brings the condition of Ruchaka Yoga but due to retrograde motion, good effects of it will not pass. Instead, I see some troubles for you, especially against your property, vehicles and valuable assets. You should try to keep them safe and guard them with utmost caution. This period of retrogression is quite small in comparison to Saturn and Jupiter. 

The only good thing I see is help from mother and maternal relations which you will be getting in this period. Retrograde Mars will be casting a direct aspect over your 7th house of marriage and relationships which means you should stay cautious during this period of 63 days. There could be health troubles to your partner and also a bad relationship with him or her will bother you.

There could be troubles from blood pressure and chances acute fever is also there. Driving may possess risk for you so staying cautious and safe should be the top priority.
