Inner,Progressions are about inner feelings, thoughts and attitudes. You should look at the progressed chart and compare it to the natal chart.
Your progressed Moon is in Scorpio, which we discussed previously. It brings in intensity and depth of feeling. It's in the 6th house, which rules your daily habits, work, and health, so you may notice/want changes in those areas of your life.
Your progressed Moon opposition to your natal Mercury is too wide to be considered in effect yet. Because progressions are slow (a day for a year) an orb of 1 degree is used for both both applying and separating aspects. Yours is only 2°49' applying.
A progressed aspect is more likely to be activated when a simliar aspect is present in the natal chart. A formed aspect takes on significance, if it is activating natal energies present and reinforcing them or changing them (a square to a trine for example).
Your natal Moon in Cancer on the cusp of your 3rd house forms a square aspect with natal Mercury in Taurus in the 12th house with an orb of 6°50' applying. You may have been introverted, shy and withheld your emotions.
Your progressed Mercury (reasoning ability) now in Aries (cardinal, fire), out of your 12th house (subconscious) and into your 11th house (friendships, hopes & wishes) is squaring (tension) your natal Moon (emotions) on the cusp of your 3rd house (communication, awareness) with an orb of 0°34' applying. This aspect is currently underway and working.
This aspect will have implications back to your 2nd (values, self worth) and 3rd (communication, awareness) houses because you have Cancer on the cusp of them. The Moon rules Cancer.
And it will also have implications back to your 1st house (self-expression) with Gemini on the cusp and the 5th house (creativity, amusements) with Virgo on the cusp. Mercury rules Gemini and Virgo.
Natally you have the ruler of your 1st and 5th (Mercury) in 12th house in Taurus, which may have reduced your outward self-expression and creativity.
By progression, your ruler of your 1st house and 5th house (Mercury) is in a different sign, Aries, and in a different house, the 11th. Do you feel that you are able to express yourself more freely and creatively now that progressed Mercury is in Aries in the 11th? You may feel like acting more implusively and socially with friends.

Cafeastrology on Progressed Mercury square Moon:
Progressed Mercury square or opposition Moon Putting your feelings into words may be a longer process than you'd like right about now, so why not try other forms of expression? What can't be easily said can still be expressed in more direct forms, starting with body language. If you find yourself becoming tongue-tied, remember there are other uses for your tongue.
I'm just learning about progressions myself, so I hope this helped you in some way. Good luck with your singing.
