Transit Mars in 2nd House
At this time your ego will be more identified with your possessions. You will tend to correlate your financial position with your worth, and even if you have a healthy bank balance, you may still feel like a slacker. Your desire to have possessions is strong now and you’ll feel the urge make impulsive and unnecessary purchases to gratify your ego. When you sense that urge coming over you remind yourself that you are falsely identifying your ego with what you possess, and that doing that will, in the end, assure that what you possess will to some extent be possessing you. But of course, you can use your possessions to accomplish a lot, so it’s a good idea, if you feel the need to buy new things, to try to focus on tools of your trade or items that you can use to get ahead in your life. There are productive possessions and indulgent possessions, so make sure you distinguish between them. During this transit you feel a certain defensiveness about your opinions and beliefs. When they are challenged you may get very touchy and end up getting into arguments. Just as your possessions should become part of your ego, neither should your opinions. Wear them lightly, and when they are challenged be thankful for the opportunity to learn.
