Tuesday is ruled by Mars, the fourth planet out from the sun. Mars is known for "go out and get it" energy. Also, in Aries season, the influence of Mars is accentuated, because Mars is the ruling planet of Aries. It brings assertive energy, leadership, and courage to the day and the Aries season.

The thumb has long been associated with this energetic planet. An upright thumb symbolizes what is good and desirable. Pointed down, it represents what is not. Invoke Mars by putting both thumbs up. Intone:

With Mars in tow, I am good to go, ready to pursue my goals.

Now get to it.

Throughout the day, as needed, harness Martian energy. With thumbs up, repeat the affirmation. Each repetition connects you to the assertive Martian energy. Use it repeatedly for your own progress and gain.
