Mars is the planet that rules Aries. This means that both of their energies are very similar and in sync with each other. This is a time of great confidence, heightened drive and powerful beginnings. Consider how this combination affects the character and life of men and women.
Transit
Mars is the planet of action. When he is in Aries, he is on top of the world. He is strong, independent and fierce. There is absolutely nothing that will stand in his way and be able to interfere, no matter what he wants to achieve. Mars in Aries always triumphs.

We will want to pave the way, push ourselves and train our bodies and minds. We are more likely to do things that we have never done before during this transit. Mars and Aries are both trying to get things done. Success comes from participation, not conquest.
And while this incredible burst of energy can be beneficial, it can also be a problem in our lives and relationships. Because we are less concerned about the consequences at this time, we may exhibit impulsive behavior. We may find that we experience more outbursts of anger or that our direct approach to problem solving irritates others. Mars in Aries makes us all feel like we belong in every situation.

"I did it my way" is your life motto. You know what you need. Know how to get it. However, be aware of the limits that may affect your personal growth. Focusing time and attention on yourself is good. You are more comfortable with the idea of "ego" than others.

Besides, your intellectual abilities help you convince others. You do not take into account the dissatisfaction, but often have to deal with the emerging resentment from others.

Mars in Aries in a woman is a very harmonious and natural placement. It will give her an excess of energy, which can affect the material body. This is especially true if Mars is in some way connected to the Ascendant, line of charts, or planets in the First House. However, the meaning of Mars in Aries in houses varies only slightly, which depends on the meaning of each particular house.
Mars tends to govern activity and our aspiration. The red planet governs our actions and areas of life where we apply our energy to get results, but can also signify life spaces where the struggle for our goals is met with resistance from other people (or life itself). Naturally, this planet is also associated with all kinds of violence and anger, as it is quite impatient and explosive. Against the background of even brutal men, Mars in Aries in women makes them real "dominoes" and mistresses of life.
Ares patronage
Since ancient times, the red planet has been given the name of the Greek god of war, Ares, and his Roman equivalent, Mars. Its energy is extremely masculine, symbolizing the male archetype (together with the Sun, as it is one side of the dual Sun-Moon axis). Its opposite counterpart is Venus, creating with it the axis Mars - Venus in Aries inas another archetypal incarnation of Yin - Yang. An interesting fact is that even the ancients were wary of the forces represented by the gods Ares (Mars). There were very few temples to Ares when compared to all the other gods of the Greek Pantheon. Of course, he received his share of respect, but without special sacraments and cults of admirers, since war and violence were always undesirable.
Analyzing this through a psychological filter, it can be said that he was in a rather calm mode, only being called when the war had already broken out to lift the spirits and create a holy madness for the warriors.
Planetary aspect
In the sign of Aries, Mars is seen in domicile. Thus, it has its highest efficiency. It should be noted that Mars takes about two months to move to the next sign. Once every two years, Mars has a retrograde period, where it moves backward on the celestial canvas. Sun in Aries - Mars in Aries - very powerful combinations for the natal chart, because the fiery planet works with the utmost force and can become an endless source of energy even in regard to the whole nation! Of course, this combination can be extremely eruptive and must be carefully controlled by each individual. A conscious approach to the functions of Mars can help him channel all this abundance into he althy and productive activities, reducing any opportunities for uncontrolled and extreme expressions. Aries is the first sign of the zodiac and the planet Mars is itsruling celestial body.
Aries is also the natural ruler of the First House, which governs our ego as well as our body and head. This will make Aries in Mars quite selfish and competitive. This placement creates the archetype of a warrior and a winner. These traits are repeatedly associated with the physical body, which helps to become athletes, citizens who join the military or other types of power units. In addition, he gives a tendency to become a hero, a pioneer who decides to jump first into the fire, while everyone else is standing and waiting. Although the last phrase may be taken metaphorically, this aspect really helps people choose the profession of firefighters. They are very fast not only in making decisions, but also in action. This is another reason that makes them great in martial arts and sports as their body can be even faster than their mind.
Fit-tempered temperament
Mars in Aries in a man creates a quick-tempered temperament bordering on aggressiveness. However, their anger can pass as quickly as it begins. Of course, they must protect themselves and those around them from this trait of their character. This character trait can be dangerous for people around if anger is unfounded or is the fruit of a misunderstanding. If you have this deficiency, be sure to try to tame your reactions and wait until your mind clears. This is especially true if you notice an uncontrollable irascibility behind you. When retrograde Mars in Aries is subject to adverse affects fromthe side of others, the individual may experience fits of anger, causing significant aggression. The best way to deal with the problem is to let go of the excessive energy of Mars through sports or other activities that involve physical work. Consulting a psychologist can also help.
Stubbornness
Persons with this sign placement are stubborn in the worst sense of the word. On the other hand, they expect the same from other people. Usually such partners are difficult to find, which can lead to misunderstandings on both sides. "Martian" people will be furious if someone indirectly tries to push them into some action that is not in their interests, or tries to convince them.
Determination
Their decisions and actions are incredibly fast. Even if they have a predetermined strategy of behavior, the result of their actions will still be completely different than expected or planned. They just don't have time to plan a strategy. Only intuition can be a tool for making the right decisions. Imagine a "karate fighter". He doesn't really think about what step he will take, he just does it. Such is the nature of Mars in the constellation Aries.
