In what way does that link demonstrate a supposed association between Seth and Mars?

In what way does your link, about an ancient connection between Thoth and Mercy, mean that there can have been no association between Thoth and the moon - especially as you go on to say "Thoth of course The Moon"? See Hart 214.

In Mayan mythology, Venus was often represented as the male deity known as Kukulkan or Quetzalcoatl.

And see [en.wikipedia.org]:

Quote

Ninsianna (Sumerian: "Red Queen of Heaven"[7]) was a Mesopotamian deity considered to be the personification of Venus. This theonym also served as the name of the planet in astronomical texts until the end of the Old Babylonian period. There is evidence that Ninsianna's gender varied between locations, and both feminine and masculine forms of this deity were worshiped.

The only association I can find is in an old Dr. Who episode - [en.wikipedia.org])
