That&#8217;s why I&#8217;ve invited Special Guest Astrologer, Chef Gordon Ramsay (sure, he&#8217;s also an astrologer, why not?) to help drive home some points about two very interesting Mars placements: Mars in Gemini and Mars in Cancer. And by &#8220;interesting,&#8221; what I mean is &#8220;oh dear God, put the machete down!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Okay, seriously: no Mars placement is perfect,<strong> but Mars in Gemini and Mars in Cancer both have at least their fair share of issues.<\/strong> Read on as I describe what each of these Mars Signs implies for you if you have that placement in your birth chart, and then Chef Ramsay will yell at you about it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Mars in Gemini<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Mars in Gemini loves directing its aggression and sense of adventure into verbal and intellectual situations<\/strong>, where (most of the time) aggression and a sense of adventure aren&#8217;t particularly welcome. You favorite way to resolve a conflict with a loved one is usually with a solid verbal assault, followed by a few sharp verbal stings, and finishing up with mild confusion as to why everyone wants to walk on eggshells to avoid provoking your anger. <strong>Much of your anger and aggression seems to start with minor incorrect details or logical inconsistencies, which you secretly can&#8217;t stand.<\/strong> People with Mars in Gemini often have better than average mechanical ability, or better than average ability to figure out where that extra park in the do-it-yourself furniture kit is supposed to go, and\/or whether or not the thing will stand on its own without it. You have a good sex drive, but it can be a little fickle and unpredictable. Teach your mate to talk dirty and it will help with this.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;Don&#8217;t try to talk your way out of this: the filet is damned near raw on one side and burned on the other. Ever heard of a little f&#8211;cking thing called &#8216;consistency of effort&#8217;?&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>Mars in Cancer<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is perhaps the trickiest placement for Mars; <strong>you have just as much drive and aggression as anyone else, but have more difficulty expressing it properly.<\/strong> People with Mars in Cancer are more prone than others to suppressing their anger, and ultimately pointing it inwards; resulting in high blood pressure, ulcers, and sometimes even gagging when sufficiently angry. That&#8217;s because you are sufficiently sensitive to the feelings of others around you that you realize that lashing out really does hurt people&#8230; and you don&#8217;t like that. <strong>You&#8217;d have more of a reputation as a sex bomb if your considerable drive wasn&#8217;t linked to your fluctuating moods<\/strong>, making you look kind of fickle to your partners. Any natural shyness or inhibitions you may have will eventually go away once you are in a genuinely caring, supportive relationship. Once you are past the childhood issues you were handed (and oh yes, you <em>were<\/em>), you will make an excellent parent.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;The Beef Wellington is undercooked and you tried to hide it with sauce, and you managed to burn your finger doing it. You can&#8217;t be a chef if you&#8217;re afraid of the f&#8211;king grill or hurting the meat&#8217;s feelings.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/Ko-fi.com\/mcurrie\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Hey, did you enjoy reading that?
