Moon Aspects
The moon represents our emotional nature, our security and deepest needs. It containts our basic habits and unconscious reactions related to our past karma and upbringing. It is associated with the mother and with feminine energy in general, it is both our inner child and mother. It is responsive, receptive, reflective and instinctual. In our personal chart it shows how we respond to our environment emotionally.
Moon Square Mars
To many people, you can seem self-centered. In your defense you can claim that you are simply focused on your goals, but it could also be pointed out that you pursue those goals irrespective of the impacts they have on others. You are competitive and determined to find success in your career. You’re not one to deliberate endlessly about the next step forward, rather you act first and ask questions later. Thought without action is nonsensical to you, and so you prefer to judge things based on the concrete results they bring. You can use your Martian energies aggressively to advance in life, often refusing adjustments and compromises with others, demanding that they appease your will and needs while denying any validity to theirs. Often instincts and emotional needs clash with your will for action, and you may feel confused regarding which to choose. This inability to know which way to turn can lead to frustration and a sense of being overwhelmed. If you’re a Moon Square Mars man, you may tend to be too forceful with women, playing a 'macho' role without much understanding and sensitivity to the female temperament. Almost all Moon Square Mars people, however, are guilty of overidentifying with the Mars energy and denying the Moon from time to time, and this leads to various forms of oppression through asserting raw power without empathy for those subject to it. Greater awareness of the dark side of those Mars forces that drive you forward in life, and working on your Moon energies which connect you to people, and you could enjoy a more harmonious balance in your life and in your mind.
