February 5-March 15: Mars Transits into Capricorn
Mars is exalted in Capricorn, which is ruled by Saturn.

energy while rulership is its most effective expression.
Basically, in the sign of exaltation, the planet functions freely as
per its true nature and delivers positive results in our life.
Conversely, in the sign of debilitation, the planet cannot function
freely because the nature of sign does not harmonize with the
nature of planets.
