Okay, so, today I messed around with this thing called “Synastry Moon Square Mars.” I heard about it from a friend who’s super into astrology, and I got curious. Basically, it’s about how the Moon in one person’s chart interacts with Mars in another person’s chart when they form a square aspect. Sounds complicated, right? It kinda is.
First, I dug up my own birth chart and my partner’s. You need the exact time, date, and place of birth for this. I already knew mine, but I had to ask my partner for theirs. We used one of those free online chart calculators. Got that done pretty easily. You just punch in the info, and boom, there’s your chart, all colorful and full of symbols.
Next, I needed to find the Moon in my chart and Mars in my partner’s. The Moon is this little crescent symbol, and Mars looks like a circle with an arrow pointing out. They were in different parts of the chart, obviously.
Now, the “square” part. This is where it gets a bit tricky. I learned that a square is a 90-degree angle between two planets. So, I basically had to eyeball it on the chart. I drew some imaginary lines in my head from the Moon to the center of the chart and then from the center to Mars. It did look roughly like a right angle, so I figured we had a square.
- I tried to visualize that angle.
- I double-checked a few times, just to be sure.
Then came the interpretation part. I read a bunch of stuff online about what Moon square Mars means in synastry. Apparently, it can indicate some tension and conflict in a relationship. Like, the Moon person might feel overwhelmed or irritated by the Mars person’s energy. The Mars person might find the Moon person too sensitive or moody.
My Thoughts
Honestly, some of it did resonate with our relationship. We do have our moments of butting heads. I can be a bit sensitive, and my partner can be pretty assertive. But it’s not all bad. The articles also said this aspect can create passion and excitement. And we definitely have that! So, it’s not a doom-and-gloom scenario. Also, every relationship is different, so one aspect is not the be-all and end-all.
In the end, it was a fun little experiment. I learned a bit more about astrology and got a new perspective on my relationship. Would I base any major life decisions on this? Probably not. But it’s interesting to think about, and it made for some good conversation with my partner.
