The Mars conjunct ascendant natal aspect suggests an extremely active person. It is hard for you to sit in one place for a long time. You love being on the go. You have a lot of energy and you have to find out the best way to spend it in a constructive way. Mars conjunct ascendant natal indicates a person who loves to be active.

Unless you have a strong Saturn in your birth chart, you need to work on developing self-control and self-discipline in order to make the most out of this conjunction. Planets in the first house can also make you too focused on yourself, sometimes failing to see other people.

When afflicted, Mars conjunct ascendant in the natal chart can indicate anger issues. You can be very impulsive, sometimes acting from muscle before your brain gets to think about the situation. This conjunction can also suggest an aggressive person if it receives hard aspects from malefics, such as Pluto or Saturn (and if the entire chart points into this direction).
