Moon Sextile Mars Synastry

With Moon sextile Mars synastry, Mars’ enthusiastic energy can easily stir the Moon’s feelings. Conversely, the Moon can emotionally motivate Mars to take action.

But the Moon is a guide, not a director. Instead of telling Mars exactly what to do, the Moon can guide Mars’ warrior energy with gentleness. Without force, the Moon can calm Mars’ inner fire. That’s the power of the Moon.

Although Mars has a strong urge to protect the Moon, Mars can also help the Moon develop emotional strength. Mars can encourage the Moon to step out of their comfort zone.

Moon Square Mars Synastry

With Moon square Mars synastry, the Moon’s mood swings can easily cause chaos in Mars’ feelings, which can lead to impulsive actions. Mars can threaten the Moon’s sense of security with their anger.

The Moon may experience Mars as reckless. The Moon tends to approach situations tenderly, while Mars can be too fiery.

On the other hand, the Moon’s passive tendency can clash with Mars’ desire for directness. Mars can be impatient with the Moon’s unwillingness to take decisive actions.

Your shared intimacy deepens through daring emotional communication. Mars can feel safe to open up, and the Moon can reward Mars’ vulnerability with deep empathy.

Moon Opposite Mars Synastry

With Moon opposite Mars synastry, the Moon’s mood swings can trigger Mars’ anger. When the Moon withholds affection as punishment, Mars can become even angrier.

Heated arguments can flare up as quickly as they dissipate. Mars can be aggressive, while the Moon can be passive-aggressive.

Mars’ impulsiveness paired with the Moon’s unconscious reactions can also lead to both people taking actions without thinking.

This aspect teaches you both to control your anger. The moment of anger is not the moment of decision. Between the stimulus and the response lies a space. In that space is your power to choose wisely.
