Mars in the 12th house: Private frustration and effort spread across several directions

You may appear open and sociable while keeping irritation or other feelings to yourself. This placement is associated with an outwardly friendly manner and emotions that remain private. For example, you might continue an ordinary conversation without mentioning something that has left you frustrated. What you discuss openly may leave out some of what you are feeling.

Effort can also become spread across several directions. You may explore a different line of work, change course on a project or keep several possibilities open without staying focused on one. For example, work on one task may give way to another possibility before you have brought the first one to a clear finish.

Expenses are another practical theme. You might spend freely or make a series of purchases without keeping to a steady plan. Money can go out through several separate purchases rather than one planned expense. The difficulty concerns scattered spending as well as scattered effort, while irritation or frustration may remain unspoken.
