The opposition points to an extreme use of one energy at the expense of another and is more unpredictable.And often is regrettable.

Natally, I have Moon in Cancer squaring Mars in Libra:

Cancer and Libra are not such a bad square and so, merging these energies together is challenging, but possible.

Mars in Libra wants fairness and equality and for me to treat people equally.This is what is stressed laterally.

Moon in Cancer is more personal and "chooses" whom it lets into its "family bubble".

I actualy recognized this tension the other day when I was sending an E-mail at the office to visit a colleague in hospital.

My Moon in Cancer was quick to list all the people at the office that I was "comfortable" in conversing with on when we can make the visit etc and I was about to hit the "send" button when my Mars in Libra intervened.

The Mars energy said;

"Come on, don't be like that. Send the E-mail to everyone. You don't know who else may be interested in going to see the colleague concerned? Don't shut people out just because it doesn't "feel" right. You are being selective and playing favourites: That's not fair!"

And when it becomes a question of "fairness"(Libras favourite word), I know its Mars speaking.I ended up sending the E-mail to everyone.

I was extremely uncomfortable with that as I didn't know everyone at the office all that well and this action opened me up to more social contacts that were "strangers" to me. But I felt I had to do it.

That's how the square manifested in my case. It ended up being something I "had" to do;merging both energies.

Now with the opposition, the energy is more like this.

I have the Moon in emotional, absorbing, responsive Cancer opposing Mercury in rational, calculating, cool-headed Capricorn.

My colleagues were going on and on about a gay guy at work and having very negative things to say about him.

Now, I know this guy personally and thought of him as part of my "inner circle"(Cancer) and so, my defenses came out (Mars in Libra) as they were not being "fair": I lashed out at EVERYBODY there.

I was emotional and all over the place and it was clear that I had my emotions involved in the slamming of my colleagues. I was shouting and everyone's attention was on me.

So involved in this my emotions were, that I just walked off in a huff and made a monumental sweeping statement(in true Cancer style) by calling them "two-faced liars who smiled at the guy whom they criticized when they conversed with him, but spat at him behind his back!" and I also added "you guys are not being fair."

I was outraged and it took me some time to calm down but eventually I did.

After calming down, I started to replay the discussion in my head and felt embarrassed for reacting so emotionally(Capricorns reproach).

I started to scold myself for showing too much emotion and thought that perhaps my argument would have had more weight had I responded with more rational and detached perspective?

I felt bad; not because I stood up for my colleague, but how the message was delivered.

The last thing I wanted to project was an image of someone sensitive and volatile in the work environment.(Capricorn logic here)
How was I going to live that tantrum down?

So with the opposition,in my case, I know that the reactions will be extreme.

Sometimes my Mercury in Capricorn will say something very direct, "cold" and "cutting" and it's only when others bring that issue up, will I feel bad(Cancer) and go to the offended party to ask for forgiveness(Mars in Libra) and explain that I didn't mean to hurt their feelings etc.

So imagine your sign positions to get a clue as to how they interact; whether in opposition or square.

You'll be surprised as to how regularly they come into contact with each other in many situations that you have differing reactions to.
