Moon square Mars in a man's chart often indicates sexual frustration of some kind. Ancient astrology texts describe these men as "irritable" and "angry." But why irritable? To understand the male psychology, we need to know that moody men are the product of either hunger or sexual starvation. In this case, his sexual needs (Mars) is not being satisfied by his wife (Moon). That's right, he ain't getting any. Or he ain't getting enough. Maybe he's not getting the type he wants either, which is rough (Mars). The wife is sexually-incompatible with him. As a result, the man gets into frequent fights and arguments with his spouse. He blames her for rejecting or suppressing his manliness, and may even feel like a failure of a man. His big appetite may only be satisfied outside marriage, hence this is a common placement for playboys and unfaithful Casanovas.
Stephen Arroyo claims that Moon square Mars men feel that they cannot assert their masculinity (Mars) towards their wives (Moon), and that the wife has sabotaged their male ego. This is always a dangerous position for men, as there is a potential of revenge towards the wife, either in the form of violence, quarrels or fights. The risk of extramarital affairs is also increased.
The root of this problem comes from childhood, specifically, from the mother (Moon). He may have perceived his mother as having rejected or ignored his neediness as a child. She could be the aggressive type of mom, the action-oriented mom who did not nurture him emotionally. He may get into frequent fights with her. Some male clients with this placement even claim that their mom was violent. The seeds of anger towards women have been sown in boyhood, which blossoms into marital discord in adulthood.
