Mars in the 10th house

The 10th house is career, standing and public role. Mars here is ambitious and open about it. These people push for position, take charge readily and are known for drive rather than for diplomacy. Military, sport, surgery, engineering and any competitive field suit them. The 10th house cusp shifts with the clock, so the birth time has to be right before reading a planet this close to it. The cost is enemies made on the way up, and rank chased past the point it serves anything.
