OMG My natal Mars is in Libra. 3 marriages and 3 divorces when I found out about their secret other lives. I am so grateful to you Christopher for helping me understand, and be at peace with this pattern in my life. ❤😌
I"m so glad that you found this week's Horoscope Highlight helpful @raventree333. Mars in Libra is a very complex placement in a natal chart. 😊
@@christopherrenstromastro You have such a gift for this! One of a Kind! A moment ago above, I made up the term "de la Complex" to comment on my own Libra issues, inspired by your brilliant analyses! TY!
Can't wait for Sir Renstrom's perspective. So, so good, no doubt!
Woke me!🤗
Looking forward to my Sunday morning coffee with you, Christopher!
You enrich my vary spirit Christopher! -with your intellect and colorful vocabulary and personal cadence. You are a gem, and I am so grateful to be threaded along on your storytelling journeys. I adore you, Thank you.
And I adore you @Lillie33. Thank you SO MUCH for watching. It means a lot! 😊
Oh My! Christopher you are such a Brilliant teacher! Thank you Astrology Hub for these lessons. Deep gratitude from us astrology students. Blessings of Abundance and Benevolence to All Here. 💕🕊️🙏🏼
And we here at Astrology Hub are so grateful to YOU @mylighthouse888 for stopping by and watching. It really means a lot! 😊
fascinating to learn the relationship of scorpio & libra. libra losing scorpio claws! as a scorpio rising, sag sun & libra mars & venus: I led a rebellious & hedonistic life while studying various schools of philosophy & mysticism in depth. but it was on an intellectual level. later in my forties, I made an extraordinary (& antithetical to my nature !) decision to travel to a foreign city & care for a friend suffering with MS and completely paralyzed. this was not a rational decision. I was mysteriously compelled to do so. during the 18 years as sole caregiver I experienced extreme mutual control & manipulation, sometimes resentment-- an on-going internal struggle between my rational mind and the love based commitment to a human being who had no other support. a forgotten man. now 8 years have passed since his transition. in retrospect this tragic experience has enriched my life and self awareness. all the suffering I witnessed and felt emotionally and physically have internalized the intellectual knowledge I had accrued. it's a miracle & I am grateful. I stayed the course. Christopher, your session resonates. thanks.
Wow! That's some story! Thank you SO MUCH for sharing it with us. I really appreciate it. 😊
I remember from my etymology class that conjugal comes from the Latin roots "con" - together and "jugum" - yolk.
Wow! Really? Have got to look that up! 😊
So fascinating! I have Mars in libra as my husband did. Very interesting the plays between people as you showed per the "scarlet pimpernel. I remember that movie. Thanks so much, enjoyed this explanation very much. ❤
They seek him here, They seek him there, His clothes are loud, But never square
It will make or break him so he's got to buy the best 'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion
And when he does his little rounds 'Round the boutiques of London town
Eagerly pursuing all the latest fads and trends 'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion
(The Kinks, 1966)
I loved the story, as usual. Wonderful Christopher!!
Are you kidding? Are those really the lyrics???? Oh, I have to listen to that song now. Thanks for sharing!!!! 😊
The Scarlett Pimpernel is one of my all time favs.
Thank you
Namaste
Isn't it wonderful? Oh, I'm so glad you like it @arielog1941. 😊
This is the highlight of my week. I always learn so much.
Me too!
I love that you just used Sink Me in a sentence@@Joandearc594! That made my day!! 😊
Thank you, Christopher, I'm going to find the 1972 version of the Scarlet Pimpernel and enjoy the nuances you have described today. 🧐💌
An extremely enlightening and, as always, delightful presentation. You really deliver, Christopher!
I'm so glad that you enjoyed this week's horoscope @lauracivitello. It was a lot of fun to do. 😊
Libra always plays the long game. 😂 my big sis is libra sun. Totally get this.
Thank you for a good laugh! It’s not often I hear you guys throw in a “what’s his face” comment😄. Excellent as always!
Oh, yes. the "what's his face comment." Thank heavens TheTimeForChange44 reminded me that his name is Ammit. Can't believe I went up on that . . . 😑
I watched The Scarlett Pimpernel 2 weeks ago on CZcams, it was delightful.
That was Leslie Howard
Christopher I find this episode fascinating and it helps me sort out several relationships over the years! Love you! ❤😅⚖️~ Patty
Zounds, Christopher. And I was always blaming my Capricorn Sun for my perverse perseverance in two LTR's that I had such a hard time giving up on, despite the multitudes of red flags. It was always my self talk about, how can I fix this? or what other route up this mountain can I take? Thanks for enlightening me to my Mar's in detriment in Libra and that being the more likely reason my warrior Mars could not easily walk away without a win in those battles. Interestingly too, both were Aries Suns. My Libra Mars and Moon (wanting both sides of the story heard,) didn't really stand a chance. Thanks for this Zodiacal elucidation. I also looked up the origin of zounds, short for Christ's wounds. I never would have thought that. This has been one amazing revelatory podcast. Thanks for broadening my starry horizons! You are simply the best.
I"m so glad that this week's horoscope resonated with you @patriciahansen51. Mars in Libra is one of its most complex placements IMHO. 😊
You're delightful to listen to. Your story telling is so captivating.
Good story. Makes me think of one of my favorite action films: True Lies.
Bravo! 👏🏼Another great, amusing and delightful performance, thank you Christopher, your teachings are so much fun. I have Mars in Libra and looking forward to my Mars return💕
I'm so glad that you enjoyed this week's episode @venusin1st. Thanks for watching! 😊
OMG! This so explains elements of my nature. Zorro and the Lone Ranger were favorites of mine and I have, more times than I can recount, been a secret benifactor. And realtionships and marriage - well I've been single for 31 yrs after 23 yrs of marriage. Sitting 1 degree from my Libra Mars, in the 11th house, is Neptune. It was like you were talking right at me.
Mars in Libra Natal placement for me, 3 marriages, Wow! Thank you! Astrology does allow us to be kinder to ourselves when we understand the nuances. Love listening to you❤
Being kinder to oneself is indeed the great gift of Astrology - as well as being kinder to others because you can actually see where they're coming from. I'm so glad that you enjoy these broadcasts. It means a lot to me @marlapeters9359. 😊
You are simply the best❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Better than all the rest...better than anyone...anyone I've never met. (a la Our Queen Tina)🤩
I would watch Christopher just telling about movies and books. This was riveting!
Fascinating about Libra and Scorpio and yet it makes so much sense.
Doesn't it? I thought so too when I unearthed that fun fact. 😊
@@christopherrenstromastro and the Scarlet Pimpernel brought back great memories of high school, as soon as you said it my brain said is he in heaven or is he in hell? 😂
Once you hear it it sticks! @@venusstromberg1500
I am De-stressing myself with the most enjoyable person,the only thing is the time is too short 😅, Thank you Christopher❤
I'm so glad that I could help you de-stress @eyerusalemhunt1096. I love doing these spots and am happy that you like them. 😊
My first husband was Aries…a nasty man for this naive young virgin away from her family for the very first time…I did become a slave and was for years…I didn’t realize I still had shadow work and forgiveness to do regarding our marriage…and him…you have helped me understand his character more clearly resulting in many of the choices he made…you are amazingly talented at bringing to life the basic life-force-focus for a person born into a specific sun sign…thank you for your offerings 🙏🎶🕊️
…”a nasty man-role”…no doubt we’ve played many roles together here on Mother Earth…thanks Christopher…
Amazing as always Christopher. Leslie Howard played Ashley in Gone with the Wind. He was sort of forced into the role and resented it. He felt he was too old to play Ashely and never read the book. He died when the flight he was on was shot down by Luftwaffe during WWII.
Yes. I remember his untimely death, but didn't know about him not wanting to play Ashley Wilkes. It's understandable given the way he pales by comparison to Rhett. 😊
How fun was this!! Loved the story.
Good morning Christopher, another great hour spent with you! My Mars is in Libra and a lot of the things you said made sense. I find getting married completely reprehensible. Never gonna happen to me. Now I have to seek out that movie "The Scarlet Pimpernal." Thanks again and have a great day!
I hope that you enjoy The Scarlet Pimpernel. It's a lot of fun! 😊
Christopher THANK YOU this one is a true gem
Christopher, I could listen to you ALL day, you are so entertaining! Thank you!
The Secret Pimpernell - You had me laughing out loud when you were playing his part! Debby in Kansas
Excellent explanations about Mars, Libra and planetary dignities in general. Thank you Christopher, always. You so willingly and enthusiastically teach and share your wisdoms and you are adored by trillions! xo
You are very sweet @jodiearrington. Teaching Astrology is such a joy for me! 😊
I am an astrologer. I am a Mars in Libra women. So insightful, Christopher! I am so in awe of your information and how you explain things that are so subtle. I am so glad I learned about Chiron with you!
I"m so glad that this week's Horoscope Highlight resonated with you 1983usroxana. Also happy that you enjoyed the Chiron segment. 😊
Thank you as always.
You are the highlight to my week Christopher! 💎
And you are the highlight to mine @IsisKhu. 😊
Mars rx in Cancer here and Mercury in Sagittarius, Jupiter in Capricorn..so many planets in detriment 🤣 Love « The Scarlet Pimpernel »! Time to rewatch it! ❤Thank you, CR! 👏🌟☀️🌝🌎🎭🍿🌟♌️😎
You are a great storyteller. Love the way you present the show
You tell a great story!
I thoroughly enjoyed your telling this arrangement between Mars and Libra as they meet in destiny.
WOW I so appreciate your love of drama, theatre and the planetary players. Bravo Christopher; I can’t wait for the next fireside chat 😊🪴
I'm so glad that you enjoyed this week's horoscope @sophfores430. And the next fireside chat will be this Sunday. I hope to see you then. 😊
Thank you Christoper 🌼
I loved that story! Thank you for painting such a perfect picture of Mars in Libra.
Beautiful video. Keep them coming. 🌟
I'm so glad that you enjoyed this week's episode @SMG338. And I will certainly keep the videos coming. Thanks for watching! 😊
I really enjoy every one of your expert reflections, thank you for sharing your light and insight!
A super interesting talk and it's funny as I loved the Scarlet Pimpernel from the 1970/s film. You acted out Sir Percy perfectly. Make a movie and star in it it would be a hit...thanks for insight into astrology and all that it affects in our lives....but seriously I'd watch you talking about scrubbing a sink as you are so amazingly funny and witty and ever so informative.
great comment about scrubbing a sink! Me also :)
Well, I did scrub the sink a few days ago. Maybe I should have filmed it? 🤣
Oh, brilliant - thank you Christopher! I have Mars in Libra on the 11th/12th cusp opp Saturn in Libra in the 5th. Really gained insights 🙏
Love this depth of theatre...this is gonna escalate profoundly hence forth😇😍😎
Always on must watch
😊😊😊👏👏👏💕💕💕Love Sunday coffee with Christopher!
I love your teachings. Thank you for what you share each week. I always learn so much.
LOOOOOVE this! And every presentation by Christopher!
And that LOOOOOOVE is mutual @tokentobbe. Thank you SO MUCH for stopping by and watching! 😊
Such a marvelous story teller!!! Thank you
(13:47) Ammit is the Hippopotamus (lion/crocodile) monster that eats the heart (soul) of the corrupt person. What I love about the story is not only the secret identity, but the point is that what you want, does not always play out strictly that way. There is always a curve and although we cannot totally control the situation, we DO need to consider the consequences. They do have a way to come back to bite you, or in the case of the story, reveal, augment and/or reinforce the importance of the relationship. Thank you, Christopher!
You're welcome @TheTimeForChange44. And thanks for the assist with Ammit. Still can't believe I went up on that name. I talk about it all the time . . .
Welcome to the Mercury retrograde in Virgo (details), Christopher. 😂I don't know about you, but it's the simple things lately that temporarily leave the brain and it is frustrating! Still, thank you as always for what you do for all of us!❤
I hear you!!@@TheTimeForChange44
I find this interesting, especially while the idea of applying for a remote contract administrator job is in my purview…I have Libra on the Tenth and I do spend most of my working hours working on contracts. In the law firm we say “ x is getting in bed with y” to mean two parties are in negotiations, establishing the terms of their agreement. The use of language is telling on deeper levels than I realized. Both “getting in bed” and “parties” are Venusian terms being used in modern day law
You got it @user-xi4zb8mI7g! It's amazing how much Astrology speaks to us in every day language.😊
Beautiful explanation I resonate from the Philippines with love.❤❤❤
Wonderful! So Information packed that i have to keep rewinding to review snippets that i missed on the first go round. Mars description made me chuckle so hard…as an Aries, I had to acknowledge…yup that’s me lol. I now have to watch another movie!! So Good!!
Well, there's a rose in a fisted glove And the eagle flies with the dove And if you can't be with the one you love, honey Love the one you're with❤
Maybe one of the Isley Brothers has Mars at 25-26 Libra, Sabian symbol is An Eagle and a Dove changing into one another.***🦅🕊🌹✊🏾 and rose in a fisted glove is definitely Mars Libra signature😂
My partner is a scorpio sun/rising, i am a libra sun stellium in the 4th we both have libra mars! Completely accurate to the t.
Thank you Christopher ❤🙏🏼✨
Thank you Christopher! You are an amazing astrologer, historian and story teller ❤✨🙏🏻

Thank you Christopher! 💝 Greetings Carla
Thank you again… I’m getting up to speed!
Thank you xxx I remember the film. Xxx
I thought it was the heart that is weighed against the feather?
It is. Isn't that what I said? I hope that's what I said . . . 🤨
Christopher you are an amazing story teller!!!! I enjoy your talent immensely. Thank you for sharing. ❤
You're welcome @jeanne3877. And thank YOU for watching! 😊
Namaste, thank you so very much ❤️ Mr Christopher NAMASTE ❤
I have a stellium in Libra, Natal Sun Moon Mercury Neptune & Mars in Libra. I finally gave up on finding a relationship. A real balancing act. I suspect my ability to walk away and never look back is my Mars. Painful. Lonely at times. But I am okay with it.
Thank you Christopher! I Love your storytelling. So inspiring and insightful!! 😺💜
Fantastic I loved this! Thank you Christopher ❤ you created a perfect opening for my day…
And thank YOU for making me a part of your day @unadavies372 . You are certainly a delightful part of mine! 😊
Everybody is kung fu fighting... Or killing adversary with love. Mars Libra. Libra is the fist in the velvet glove.

Fast as lightening

Well put.
This is so interesting about the masking and how Libra works in partnership/marriage. I actually am a Scorpio Ascendant so Mars is my chart ruler and with it in Libra I can definitely feel the energies of Scorpio present in my relationships, through deceit, intense sexual interactions, and some kind of challenge in power dynamics. My Mars is also conjunct Chiron within one degree so it’s been a great struggle to remain in romantic relationships as they always seem to induce this deep, deep pain. Luckily though I’ve had access to amazing healers who have assisted me in realizing this self sabotage and the wounded memories around sex and personal agency so I can maybe one day have a beautiful marriage. But it’s a work in progress!
THANK YOU Christopher! Natal mars in libra, 12 house… The Scarlet Pimpernel has always been one of my favorite novels… little did I realize it would foretell so much if my life ! You answered so many questions.
My goodness ! I LOVE how you express the tales of the Stars into a story of stories. :-)
If you ever get a chance to retire ( LOL) you could start a you tube just on the stories alone. I have not read any of the books that you mentioned, so I get a "2 fer" one with each of your enlightened sharings. Thank you and bless you for Being! Much Gratitude and Massive appreciation! 🥰
I adore your story times
Thank you, Christopher! 😄 Another in-depth and thoroughly entertaining horoscope highlight! 👏🏽👏🏽 This child of Mars thanks you for your well-balanced description of Mars energy. Also, for a moment, I thought I was seeing a screensaver picture of Bert Convey, a game show host, on the screen behind you. Now that's a name from the past! 😁
It most certainly is! Alas the picture is of Anthony Andrews from the 1970s TV film Scarlet Pimpernel. I hope you get a chance to watch it. He's BRILLIANT!!! 😊
@christopherrenstrom2002 Yes! I realized it was Anthony Andrews after inspecting further. 👁☺️ Yes! I do intend to watch this movie version soon. Who can resist this wonderful cast and story? 😊
❤❤❤❤❤❤ always so much fun and I ALWAYS learn something! Thank you.
omg. christopher, you better make those audio books. artistic talent should not go to waste. i'm serious, please look into it.
Funny you should mention audio books. Getting ready to pitch one so keep fingers crossed! 😊
Fabulous Chris!
Ahhh beautiful as always
Hi! This me, Mars in Taurus!
*me T00!
👋🥰✌️😌
…As comfortable as a tomboy in a Disney princess dress 😂
Wow👁️✨👁️ Thank you so very much, Christopher! I came to get insight into my daughter's Mars♎ placement, but ended up learning tons about my husband's chart...he has Mars conjunct Venus at 1°♈8H, this has given my so much to think about. I also have a new perspective on my 12H♉Mars 🤔✌️🥰
So ...your Mars is in mutual reception (relationship) with your husband's Venus, that's Hot !!!
Well, now using whole sign house system, your Mars rules your 6th & 11th, Your husband's Venus rules his 2nd & 9th, start there, using the mutual reception, and the chemistry between his Venus ( the woman) your Mars (the man) hope this helps
You are so great….thank you
I am a Libra rising with Mars there. I discovered my 2 X's were not who they said they were in a Narcissistic way. I wish it had been in a more heroic deception than with a personality disorder. This puts new light on my past and the why.
But what should those of us that have birth charts with Mars in Libra expect from August 27 - October 11th???
You bring so much more meaning to the classics. Thank you.
Me too! The ex is a narc, as is my dad.... And it's crazy, as my marriage was imploding (and I used to say after we separated that I had no idea who he really was) he told me once: [I] got tired of wearing my mask, so I took it off". And that's when he became a monster... yikes
Mars in libra. I fight for onlly that which i need to win. I dont want others to lose, either.
And lets do it nicely....and FAIRLY.
Well, that could explain the challenges I have with my 30 year marriage! My Mars in Libra won’t let me give up 😩?
You got it! 😊
That was awesome ❤ I have Mars in libra 7th hs, intercepted, with Pluto conjunct Uranus in the Virgo part of 7th. 😒 all that opposite my Taurus moon and NN and pisces Saturn conjunct Chiron. 😮

Thank you for this Christopher! What effect does it have when a planet in detriment such as Mars in Libra goes retrograde?
Good question! Let me think about that and get back to you on it. Maybe we'll do a session on it one day? 😊
My Mars is in Aries 😊
Mars exalted Capricorn 28 degrees. 5th house I’m a fighter I get what I want. Lol. But I’m very giving and I share every. But I believe an Eye for and eye. I want to be first and the best.

Great storytelling as always ❤
I have my sun in Scorpio (in a stellium), and my moon in Aries (in a stellium)...my Mars in Cancer 🤦♀️.
I also dont get along with Libra males 😂😂😂
Anthony Andrews (Bridesmaids Revisited)
The Best!!! 😊
Omg 😱 I’m Mars in Libra and I married a foreigner who turned out to be completely different to the person I married. I also moved to their country. There has also been a power struggle / secrets etc btw our two families. I’m still very much connected to him and it’s been nigh on impossible to break away because of the children and he’s stitched me up over the house in the divorce so we still after 14 years of divorce own a home together. But on the other hand I have chosen to stay because their were financial incentives for the children to stay and even though there has been much f*ckery we do have this kind of warped relationship where it’s ended up more like a business relationship where both receive payoffs. We divorced legally but didn’t have a divorce in the Church so in the eyes of the Church are STILL married. How bizarre! 😳🤦♀️ I am text book Mars in Libra. 😮
My goodness! You most certainly are! I'm glad that you've been able to find a way for the situation to work for you and hope that you haven't been too hurt in the process. 😊
@@christopherrenstromastro Aries rising so luckily I’m a bit of a warrior so that’s got me through 💪🏻 ha ha x
Oh gosh I don't know which one is more true in my life. Depending on chart system I'm either Virgo or Libra Mars 1st/2nd house but the Libra Mars describes so closely what happened between my partner and me that it's uncanny. Might have to do something with NN in Libra in the second house too (that one doesn't change with the house system) but wow, spot on from tomboy in Disney Princess thing to this weird "partnership" (perhaps without happy ending like in the movie)
1st house at 14. 😮
