The Relationship Between Mars and Assuredness

In Scorpio, the assertiveness there through Mars is a lot more long lasting and a lot more dangerous in the sense of holding resentment.

Again, we're talking about that polarity because Mars in both signs that rose both areas in Scorpio opposes the Venus and Taurus and Libra.
