Decode Your Mars Sign: Where You Hold Rage & How to Heal It

How do you express anger—and where do you hold it in your body? In astrology, Mars rules anger, drive, conflict, and how we assert ourselves. Your Mars sign reveals your personal “rage language,” showing how you react under pressure and where you may somatically store that tension. When unexpressed, Mars energy doesn’t just disappear—it lodges in the body, creating emotional and physical stagnation. Below, discover how each Mars placement processes anger and how to begin releasing it through a simple somatic ritual for emotional healing.
