Some of us may feel quite irritable, or strangely emotional without knowing why. There are a few people who will react to this brief transit with an emotional outburst or by saying whatever they feel without concern for the way it comes across to others.

Passion is in the air for the few brief hours of this transit.

The life force is flowing at this time, so we feel more lively and passionate than we normally do. Women and men interact well at this time.

Mars Square Moon
Short Tempers.
Keywords: unavailable, wounded, defensive
This impatient, jumpy energy will only last a few hours but can be quite irritating while it’s here. Suddenly folks are touchy and hypersensitive, taking offense where none was intended, becoming easily defensive and having emotional outbursts. It’s too easy to have one’s feelings hurt during this brief period and wounds that take only seconds to inflict may take much longer to heal. Impulsive or emotionally based actions are likely during this time, and usually won’t be beneficial in the long term. Tempers are short and arguments can easily ensue if folks give in to the self-indulgence or selfishness that this transit can create.
Mars Trine Moon
Fireworks.
Keywords: energetic, passionate, connected
There can be quite a surge of erotic, sexual energy during the few hours of this particular transit, which is something that most people respond to on some level, consciously
or not. Emotional power blends with physical prowess to help folks feel excited, passionate about what they’re doing and internally aligned. We express our emotions with ease and pay attention to our bodies. Actions taken now are based on clear feelings and should be successful. There’s a certain youthful, impetuous feeling to this brief period that can be quite fun and refreshing. Sparks can fly, in more ways than one!
Mars Opposite Moon
Sensitive and Moody.
Keywords: oversensitive, argumentative, moody
For may people, this short monthly transit brings out their most sensitive and moody side. Many people become defensive and are easily wounded. Some may even pick fights with others, especially those closest to them, in overt power plays or emotional projections. Immature or reactive behavior can be evident. Because this energy often operates unconsciously, it often manifests as a blaming attitude; fortunately, any finger-pointing is probably short-lived. Tempers are often short and emotionally based confrontations are quite common. A better way to handle it is to take a brisk walk to discharge any excess energy.
