Mars is a great protector and a brave warrior in the pantheon of the gods. Indian myths say that Mars, Mangala or Kuja, was born from a drop of Shiva’s sweat when he performed a severe penance. Shiva sent him to the sky and blessed him to be the protector of lands and women.

The energies of Mars are fiery, impetuous, hot. He personifies the strength of the body and mind, oversees the movement of blood, the work of muscles.

Mangala is an unfavorable planet, as its nature is anger, aggression, constant movement. People with strong Mars cannot sit still, they have many plans, goals, ambitions. Often they are adrenaline addicted, adventurous.

Disharmonious Mars can give outbursts of anger, uncontrolled aggression, hatred, vindictiveness, cruelty, frequent injuries, cuts, bruises and burns, increased libido.

Weak Mars gives apathy and cowardice. Often a person cannot stand up for himself, does not know how to express anger correctly, there may be painful sexuality, in physics this will give muscle weakness, anemia, low blood pressure.

Working with the energy of Mars is necessary for all people. Many traditions and stereotypes of society do not allow the energy of anger to manifest itself naturally. Many owners of strong Mars do not know where to direct it, how to properly protect themselves and express discontent.

All upayas for Mars should start on Tuesday.

Recommendations for working out Mars:

* Based on myths, the birth of Mangal from a drop of sweat speaks of the main upaya – it is necessary to allow the body to move so intensely and quickly so that the Martian energy is transformed and exits through sweat. Weak Mars does not give the desire to actively move, therefore, in such cases, it is recommended to do soft exercises from hatha yoga and other physical practices. Ashtanga yoga classes are perfect, as this system implies a clear sequence of asanas and breathing.

People with weak Mars are encouraged to set goals and gradually, consistently achieve them. Sports and body workouts are one of the best features.

* Get rid of fears, learn to express anger correctly.

* Grow and feed birds of prey, roosters. And also take care of thorny plants.

* Practice ahimsa (the principle of non-violence) on yourself and on other living beings.

* Tuesday is the day of Mars. On this day, one should fast and read the mantra OM KUM KUJAYA NAMAHA 108 times.
