6. Mars Transit 2023

In astrology, a Mars transit is believed to have an impact on a person’s life and personality. According to astrological beliefs, Mars is associated with energy, assertiveness and ambition. Therefore, its transit through the different zodiac signs can trigger changes in these areas for people whose chart is affected. In other words, Mars, also known as the ‘red planet’, takes one and a half months to change its position from one zodiac sign to another.

This whole process of change in its position is known as Mars transit. Consequently, natives will be able to reap the benefits of Mars placement in their navamsa charts if Mars reaches the three, sixth, and eleventh houses. On the contrary, natives will have to face hardships if Mars is placed in 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th and 12th houses in their navamsa chart.
