Planetary magick uses the energy of planets to support your goals. Mars is the planet of action, courage, and determination. Its energy is strong, direct, and helps you face challenges or break through barriers. If you need motivation, want to start something new, or must overcome obstacles, Mars can give you the drive and confidence you need. Mars teaches us to use logic and willpower, not just emotion, to solve problems. It awakens your inner strength—not to harm others, but to help you work hard and pursue your goals with confidence.
To use Mars’s energy in daily life, wear bold colors like red or scarlet. These colors are linked to Mars and can help you feel more confident and assertive. Listen to music with a strong beat, such as drums or martial rhythms, to boost your motivation. Physical activity is also helpful: try dancing, practicing martial arts, or taking a brisk walk to activate your energy.
In your magickal practice, you can strengthen Mars’s influence with certain tools. Carry or wear red jasper for protection and courage. Burn dragon’s blood resin or incense during rituals to make your intentions stronger. You can also anoint candles or charms with dragon’s blood oil to empower your spells. For the best results, do spellwork for motivation or strength on Tuesday, the day ruled by Mars, or during the planetary hour of Mars.
You can even use Mars’s energy in the kitchen. Cook with ingredients like basil, onions, garlic, and especially chili peppers. These foods add heat and energy to your meals, helping you feel more active and ready to face challenges.
Let Mars’s power give you courage and determination. Whether you are starting a new project, standing up for yourself, or just need motivation, remember that Mars’s energy is always available. Use it to guide your actions, fuel your determination, and help you reach your goals. Stand tall, act with purpose, and let the energy of Mars support you every day.
