> edit this In the personality
This is more prominent when the person is irritated - an angry reply may very well be out of whack, especially when apprehension of reprisal is not present in the given situation.
The sun and the moon should be examined for any permissiveness for these low energies. The house where Mars is will bear a more direct, heavy hand, when the house where Pluto is will be more convoluted and underground.
There's also an underground, clandestine fashion in its undertakings, as if they expect a foe at every corner. This is a reflection of their own underhanded energies, which can find their expression as such in a chart that lacks proper solar or lunar guidance.
There may be some overbearing qualities in the personality. It makes the person very competitive, perhaps in a negative air, although the native often hides that. The native may feel like destroying adversaries and other hindrances, although will probably refrain from such a recourse in most situations, perhaps out of a fear of a reversal of the lot upon himself.
Sexuality may be experienced with certain negative emotions, as if it is a bad thing, which makes it all the more intensive. There is often a great hunger there, but there may be a lack of red lines or a certain sexual dominance/submission complex. These complexes often makes them rather secretive about their sexual side.
Like other Mars-Pluto contacts, this aspect is common with weightlifters and bodybuilders.
