Sex is an integral part of life for most of us, and the secrets to improving your sex life can be found in your astrological chart. The red planet, Mars, is named after the Roman god of war, but it represents much more than the way we fight; it is also connected to our primary sexual desires.
Scroll down and find your Mars sign to understand what kind of love you need in the bedroom, and if you have a special someone in your life, make sure you look at their sign too, because sex is only good when both people get exactly what they want!
Ram
Mars is Aries’ ruling planet, so he feels at home here. Your sex drive is greater than that of your peers and this makes sex a central point in your life. While quality is always important in the bedroom, quantity can often be just as important for an Aries Mars. To improve your sex life, keep satisfying that desire morning, noon and night!
Taurus
Mars doesn’t like to be in slow Taurus… unless we’re talking about sex. Taurus rules the 5 senses, so a full experience in the bedroom is important. Soft and hard kisses on the neck are particularly exciting for this earth sign, but don’t forget to set the mood with good lighting and soft music if you really want to take things to the next level.
Twin
Gemini is ruled by Mercury, so when it comes to major excitement, dirty talk is at the top of the list. This allows foreplay to start before you even get home. A playful game of banter while on a date will set the tone for a steamy end to your evening, but don’t forget to use your hands—the part of the body that Gemini rules—to really get into the mood.
Cancer
Cancer is the divine caregiver of the zodiac, so you want to care for others and take care of yourself. Being in love is the sexiest thing for this Mars sign! Because Cancer is a water sign, having an emotional connection makes sex much more fun, so while a casual fling can be fun from time to time, the best sex happens with someone you love.
Lion
Since you’re ruled by the Sun, having a Leo Mars means you’ll do whatever it takes to be in the spotlight. Because of this, you may find that you have the most fun in the bedroom when you make a performance of it. Role play, use costumes, be loud and never forget to tell your Leo Mars partner how good they look naked. The more a Leo Mars is complimented, the more excited he will be!
Virgin
Many people will say that Virgo is prudish, and in reality Virgo is represented by the Virgin, but that should not be taken literally. This earth sign cares about one thing in life, and that’s being absolutely perfect, so when it comes to the bedroom, Virgo uses that same neurotic perfectionism to show its partners a good time. In fact, bringing your partner to climax can sometimes be just as exciting as getting there yourself!
Scale
Libra Mars people are lovers and peacekeepers, but sometimes their easy-going nature can turn them into a habitual people pleaser. This is not good for a relationship and can often lead to resentment and heartbreak, but it is not a bad trait to have in the bedroom! Libra Mars is a giver in bed, but what really turns you on is when your sexually attractive nature is recognized by your partner. Nothing is hotter than hearing “good girl/boy.”
Scorpion
Scorpio is known as one of the sexiest signs, and that’s partly due to the fact that Mars is the traditional ruler of this water sign. Unlike the fire sign Aries, the energy in Scorpio Mars is as intense as it is deep. Sex is not just a physical connection between two (or more) people, but it is an emotional experience between souls. To spice things up in the bedroom, try taking deep breaths together while maintaining eye contact as a form of foreplay.
Archer
When it comes to sex with Sagittarius Mars, you’ll be laughing hysterically one second and totally engrossed in hardcore the next. Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, so joy comes easily and should be honored in the bedroom with a Sagittarius Mars. This fire sign appreciates the full range of human experiences, so to balance the jovial aspects of sex, you’ll want to bring a powerful force to lovemaking. You will laugh and cry with a Sagittarius Mars in your bedroom!
Ibex
Mars in Capricorn is an exalted placement, meaning this is one of the best Mars signs! Capricorn Mars understands and understands the power dynamics in any situation, and especially likes to play with them in the bedroom. Sometimes you enjoy being the more dominant partner, but because you are quite dominant in your daily life, it is often more exciting to take a completely subordinate role in bed.
Aquarius
Like the other air signs, the best way to get an Aquarius Mars sexually aroused is to stimulate his mind first before ever touching his body. You are most attracted to people and experiences that are unique and eccentric. This also happens to be the most sexually liberated sign, often known for experimenting with multiple partners, polyamory, and relationship anarchy. So if you want to enhance the atmosphere in the bedroom, you can try adding some extra body to the mix.
Fishing
Pisces is the most intuitive and empathetic zodiac sign, so sex can often feel overwhelming for a Pisces Mars. Because of their sensitivities, they tend to be more passive in the bedroom, making it easier to tap into their partner’s energy and meet their needs without saying anything. Since you are prone to fantasy, it can be a good idea to role-play and invite whimsy into your next sexual experience.
