What does Mars mean?
Mars is drive and assertion — willpower, eros, conflict. It shows what you fight for, how you push a yes through or draw a no, and where the energy arrives when you really want something. Mars explains your fighting style, your sexual flavour, and the way you mark a boundary.
What does Leo mean?
Leo shows up. Heart, stage, generous gesture — and the courage to actually play a role without half-hiding behind it. Where Leo acts, something is put in the light, celebrated, given; life gets a stage and you allow yourself to stand on it.
Mars changes stage and brings its theme into the key of Leo. Anyone with a question for Mars will get different answers in the coming weeks.
