I have Mars opp. Moon and I think I fairly often enter some conflicts with "oppressive persons" or persons who just seems to be irritated at me for some reason.

The Sun-Mars opposition can be "me against the world" which probably doesn't make a person the happiest of people, even if outwardly it doesn't lead to conflict with others.

The Sun-Mars conjunction is feisty and combined with the Mars-Uranus square makes me think of a warrior, who is courageous and bold. But the hard aspects of the Moon and Mars I think is more what your question relates to: anger, possibly related to issues carrying over from relationship with a dominant, controlling mom.

Chogyam Trungpa, a Tibetan Buddhist teacher, wrote about the "five Buddha families," which is a way the tradition classifies human personal styles. The "karma family" clearly equates with Mars. Karma here simply refers to the quality of action.

"The neurotic quality of action or activity is connected with jealousy, comparison, and envy. The enlightened aspect of karma is called the Wisdom of All-Accomplishing Action. It is the transcendental sense of complete fulfillment of action without being hassled or pushed into neurosis."

[I think the transcendental aspect relates to Sun-Mars in its best expression, whereas the "being hassled or pushed into neurosis" relates to the hard aspects of Moon-Mars.]

"With karma wisdom, the quality of resentment falls away but the qualities of energy, fulfillment of action, and openness remain...our energetic activity touches everything in its path. We see the possibilities inherent in situations and automatically take the appropriate course. Action fulfills its purpose."
