How do you go about setting and obtaining your goals? How do you get what you want? Do you know what you want? Do you need a push? How do you pursue a mate? On achieving your goals, do you push ahead or do you need to be pushed? Do you strive for promotions? Or are you so laid back you have the whatever happens, happens attitude?

I've read that mars in pisces kind of goes along with the flow and tends to let things just fall in their laps? I've read mars in pisces people need a push sometimes. Just curious if this is actually true and what yall's thoughts are on it.

My mum and one of my two main exes have Mars in Pisces.

None of them were ambitious or strived for promotion. My ex became my boss by chance and then refused any further promotion or responsibility. I was wearing the trousers in the relationship.

They were both extremely tight with money and obsessed with savings. Despite earning more than a member of the parliament, my ex was bringing home stuff discarded by other people, used coupons for everything and made sure he didn't spend a penny on me without receiving it back during the same day.

My ex wants an early retirement and is afraid of failure. My mum disliked working.

Did they pursue a mate? My ex never pursued someone. My mum tricked my dad (aqua) into marrying him.

I don't know if this has anything to do with Mars in Pisces, but these were the two people I quarreled the most in my life. We simply irritated each other on a daily basis (maybe due to my Sun in Pisces, warming up their Mars, lol?). My ex was in a constant defensive mood. My mum was a control freak (maybe due to her being a Taurus).

interesting. maybe it is other "aspects" too.

my ex is a mars in pisces conjunct merc/sun, but he was NEVER tight with money. He spent it lavishly, much to his great detriment. There was no balance. If he got, for example 30 grand, he would spend it within a few months tops. Lavishly having parties and inviting friend and foe alike, drugs everywhere, to the point where you wonder how the hell did this happen? He hated the thought of coupons and saving to him sounded foreign and outerspace.

Mars 21 deg Pisces

For me this placement seems to affect me in the area of failure. I mean I don't always have to succeed the first or second time around BUT when I mess something up big (at least in my mind it's big) it tends to really discourage me. When I was younger I would just quite half the time when I got to that point but now that I'm older... even though the fear of failure truly scares me I try to push ahead and most times works out for me. I always like to say these days that "you can never fail if you never give up"

I wouldn't say I never pursue women I just don't like to put up with hard to get if there is no positive reinforcement. Plus, to me in my mind, going after everything that pleases my eye makes me feel like some slimy rabid hyena who can't control himself.

I guess I don't like trying to make a women want to be around me... I just want her to want to be around me. It feels a lot more genuine that way.

Mars in 22 Pisces, conjunct venus in 5th as well but I guess more notably trines Saturn. I think that combination might be why I don't really relate to what they say about pisces mars going with the flow.

In certain ways yes if things fall into my lap I'm not going to complain but I have certain goals and aspirations that I want to reach perhaps I just go about it differently to others. When I have a goal I have several ways of going about it so if a plan fails then I'd take a step back probably wade through why I failed then push forward again.

When it comes to work I guess this idea really works well with Cap merc, suppose it's a laid back but pushing approach. I wouldn't say I strive for promotions and this might be putting things arrogantly but I am confident I can run things better than most therefore I'd like to be in a higher position. Might also be the house it falls in plus other aspects, work is important for me, work is something I always end up being passionate about.

When it comes to love, Hell no 😛 I tend to to be very straight forward in that department, if I fancy someone then yes I'm going to try and not wait for things to happily go my way.

When it comes to long term stability of 'life' things though like general happiness and well being then yeah. I do feel like I drift a lot sorta meandering or walking through aimlessly. I'm one of those people that are happier in a relationship than without one, sorta like I do need a purpose to live and finding that purpose is hard. This is where I feel where a push is great because I can wallow at the bottom of the fish pond for too long.

What about sex? Would you rather the partner initiate or do you prefer initiating?



I'd say If I had to pick one... I'd probably rather the partner initiate then me. Not so much because I don't want to have sex or that I'm too scared or wussy to do it... just it feels good to know 100% they want it and I'm not the one coercing/forcing/imposing my sexual desires onto them.

I know that works both ways obviously so I wouldn't always be the one not innitiating I suppose, I just feel more comfortable knowing I'm not making you do it because it's something that I want. And especially at the start of a relationship with someone... how can you be the initiator and not make the other person feel that that is not what your after them for.

YES we all can appreciate some good SEX... just especially at the beginning being overt about that stuff tends to confuse things in my opinion.
