You're not afraid to start. You learn by throwing yourself in. But once burned, you remember that person for a long time.
Myth and role
Mangala is the son of Bhumi, the Earth goddess. One tradition says he was born from a drop of sweat that fell from Shiva in deep meditation. He is pictured as a red warrior holding a spear, general of the gods’ army.
In Vedic astrology Mars governs courage, drive, siblings, and land and property. Tuesday is its day.
