Okay, so today I messed around with this “moon mars square” thing in astrology. I’ve been kinda curious about how the planets and stuff affect my mood and energy, so I figured, why not dive in?
First, I grabbed my birth chart. You need to know your exact birth time, date, and place for this, otherwise, it’s all just guesswork. I already had mine from some other astrology kick I was on a while back, so that part was easy.
Then, I started hunting for where the Moon and Mars were in my chart. The Moon shows your emotions and inner self, and Mars is all about energy, action, and, well, sometimes anger. A “square” means they’re about 90 degrees apart, which usually signifies some tension or conflict.

The Digging Process
- Checked the positions: I used a birth chart calculator and it showed me exactly the location of the Moon and Mars.
- Figured out the aspect:I saw that they were pretty close to that 90-degree mark.
- Looked up interpretations:Okay I did do a bit of internet searching just to make sure I had everything right.
I found my Moon in Cancer and my Mars in Libra. And yep, they were squared. I started reading up on what this particular combo means. Apparently, it can lead to some inner turmoil – like, my emotional needs (Moon in Cancer) might clash with how I take action or express myself (Mars in Libra).
It’s like, I might crave emotional security and closeness (Cancer Moon), but then I go about getting it in a way that’s more about fairness and keeping the peace (Libra Mars), which doesn’t always get me what I actually need. Or, I might get passive-aggressive when I’m upset, instead of just dealing with things head-on.
I spent some time reflecting on this. I thought back to recent situations where I felt frustrated or misunderstood. Did this Moon-Mars square thing play a role? Honestly, it kinda resonated. I could see how I might have been holding back my true feelings to avoid conflict, which just ended up making things worse.
The whole point of this wasn’t to find some magic answer, but more to become aware of these patterns. Now that I have this little bit of insight, I can try to be more mindful of how I react in emotional situations. Maybe I can catch myself before I go into passive-aggressive mode, or push myself to be a little more direct, even if it feels uncomfortable.
It’s all a work in progress, of course. But it was a pretty interesting experiment, and it definitely gave me some food for thought. I might keep exploring these aspects in my chart, just to see what else I can uncover. Who knows, maybe the stars do have some wisdom to offer after all!
