Mars in Sagittarius: What It Means and How You Desire
The crusade Mars: power that runs on meaning and dies in obligation, truth as blunt instrument, and medicine with a dose as the fix.
Mars in Sagittarius means the planet of drive and desire sat in the zodiac's freest sign when you were born, and your engine runs on horizon: you pursue what expands you, fight for what you believe, and lose all power the moment something becomes an obligation.

What Mars in Sagittarius means
Drive as crusade. Your energy is enormous and conditional: attached to meaning, it moves mountains; attached to a cubicle, it evaporates. You start with a leap, aim while airborne, and trust the landing, optimism is your fuel injection system. Anger is blunt and fast: the unvarnished truth, fired from the hip, forgotten by you long before its recipient. The gift: courage plus conviction, you'll bet on yourself when no one else will. The cost: honesty without anesthesia, and finishes outsourced to whoever's behind you.
Mars in Sagittarius in love and attraction
You pursue adventure wearing a person. Attraction for you is tangled with expansion: the foreigner, the philosopher, the one who makes your map bigger, and desire stays alive exactly as long as the relationship keeps moving. Possessiveness is the extinguisher; so is routine without play. The keepers are companions first: they ride along, hold their own views, and never confuse commitment with confinement. The luck engine itself: your Jupiter, this Mars's ruler, and the receiving side: your Venus.
Compatibility
Fire Mars (Aries, Leo) matches your blaze and your pace; air Mars (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) keeps the conversation as big as the trips.
