Basic question on how planetary transits affect our natal chart

Much to think about

Other than by an aspect to your natal Mars, transiting Mars could also affect him indirectly by forming an aspect to his dispositor.
An example would be having your Mars in Aquarius, and the "Lord" of that sign, Uranus, around 9° Libra.
With transiting Mars currently in a sextile to Uranus, he would affect everything that is connected to Aquarius in that chart,
including natal Mars with his house position.

Hope this helps.
Saturn rules Capricorn and Aquarius
Mars in Aquarius would be affected by transiting Saturn in aspect also
