ROLE OF MARS (KUJA)

                                    

The secret of the birth of Mars:

Role of Mars is the lord of red objects.  It is supposed to be the son of Earth.  It represents energy and power.  The energy which he gets from Sun and Moon maintains the continuity of life.

"Vikesi", the daughter of the demon Hiranyaksha, was interrupted by fire when Lord Shiva wanted it. The sweat drops from the angry Lord Shiva fell on Parvati, she swallowed them and became pregnant, unable to bear the radiance, and fell on the earth. Mars married Shakdevi of Avanti town and had a son called Sumarajuna. Kuju is wearing a scepter in his right hand and a garland in his left hand

According to the mythology Mars is one of the nine planets which has golden chariot drawn by eight horses.  It has a masculine nature with a cruel and warlike temperament.

A person affected by Mars is a teenager, glowing complexioned with glossy, curly hair.  He has eyes of an angry man with redness and cruelty of a lion.  He is active, daring but kind and generous too.  He is an expert in his ability to vanquish enemies.  If Mars is malefic in a natal's horoscope then he is very rude, always willing to quarrel and laudsome.
