Is there a difference between an Aries Sun with an Aries Moon/Mercury and an Aries Sun with Pisces Moon conjunct Mercury/Mars?

In my opinion any Moon/Mars aspect is very similar to Aries Moon, not just conjunctions. I have a Moon/Mars sextile and I often feel like an Aries Moon. Plus, my Moon is in Leo in the house of Aries, so maybe that's also why.

Ohhh, okay. I think the Aries vibe you feel is mostly because of your Moon in the 1st house.
Soo two individuals with the following charts wouldbe quite alike in terms of their character/emotional nature/mental processes, etc?

Also, a Libra Moon (Aries Sun) guy with Gemini Mars wouldn't be your typical diplomatic, dependent, peace-loving Lunar Libran?

What about when you see it the other way? When Mars aspects the moon, wouldn't that give Mars Cancer-like?

I choose to subscribe to both, that by having Moon-Mars conjunction, my moon is more Aries-like, while my Mars is also more Cancer-like.

To the OP:

They're similar, but I'm not sure they're the same. The Moon-Mars qualities are still filtered through the qualities of another sign, if that makes sense. We do share many traits with them though. And IME, we tend to attract many Aries Moons because of the similarities.

The theory states that it is always the slower moving planet that exerts more influence.

So the Moon move faster than Mars,which means that Mars exerts more influence.

Any planet that is touched by Mars adds an impulsive/nothing to hide nature to the planet it influences

Just like a planet that is touched by Neptune adds a "lets hide"/ "no-one must see everything" to the planet it influences.

So Moon/Mars aspects(even the sextile and trine) make the individual very aware of any emotional feeling/impulses I the minute and the moment they occur.

So the result could be that one "acts" on these impulses or inhibits them- depending on the energy involved. But they most definitely feel them.

When Aries is on the Moon or the Mars position of such an interaction, there is no question. The impulse is simply to "act".

In my case,Cancer is on the Moon position and Libra on Mars. Both energies are hesitant and for differing reasons.

So I tend to mull over things for a while before acting. But the feelings I get that prompt this inner chasm ,are quite "raw" and instinctive.

Does this mean that Moon/Mars aspect is like Aries Moon? Generally yes. But the response are differing.

Both are touchy and sensitive and prone to outbursts.

With Aries involved,its immediate. With other energies, its cumulative. The resentment/feelings tend to simmer just beneath the surface.

moon aspect to mars indicates competitive nature.

Moon conjunct mars can indicate that the mother is a disciplinarian (the type that yells and beats kids up or get verbally abusive).

Moon conjunct mars knows that their drive is what keeps them alive. They are usually quite athletic ... Can be interested in the military too.

Btw, i do think there is a difference between moon-mars conjunction and moon-mars square/opposite. The conjuction has a single-mindedness to it. These folks know what they want. They dont sit and ponder the best approach to things, they just know that they have a method to approaching challenges: go directly to the source of problems. Moon-square mars and moon-opposite-mars tend to have more self doubts

Aries moon is a much simpler placement. It indicates the native's needs to be on the go, to find the next "original high" as Adam Lambert would say. They are not exactly always outwardly competitive as often given credits, a la Thom Yorke, the Radiohead frontman. Now Aries is ruled by mars so where the mars is matters a lot for an aries moon.

Aries moon is on the mission to be conquer new adventures and the mars placement will show how they go about it.

Aries moon conjunct Aries mars will lead to someone like Angelina Jolie. I know quite a few people with this conjunction, very quick temper but they finish what they start.

@Aries23dgrees, what about if you have moon conjunct Mars conjunct Saturn like me? Saturn 25 Leo, Mars 28 Leo, moon 1 Virgo.

I'm very athletic, competitive and when I want something nothing will stop me.

BUT I struggle with my emotions and getting out what's on my chest at times. It's a battle with Saturn there. However other times I tend to boil over with passion and I become a volcano spilling out all over the place.
Sometimes it's hard to find that balance.

I do think that the moon/Mars is why I attract SO many Aries into my life. Most of my closest friends.

Old topic that I didn't see.

Saturn/Mars rule signs that form a natural square.

When they are in conjunction they can blend well at the best of times. And then clash vigorously at the worst.

The conjunction is good when its really good. But when it gets bad, it can also be the other extreme

So Saturn is the parent that caps the Mars' childlike enthuisuasm. And this can make the individual feel frustrated that their actions are ill timed, latent or repressed.

Also, it can result in anger and resentment building up for a long time before the explosive finish-often resulting in physical body manifestation of this discomfort

My advice would be to resist letting things go to boiling point by letting them "slide"

This could mean constant daily awareness and self assertion in situations where you are unhappy i.e if someone is unpleasant to you, address it there and then.

What Saturn will do is add firmness and formality in your manner of addressing the issue so much so, that the person on the receiving end will think thrice before ever crossing you again.

Avoid letting it build up as Saturn has the tendency of making things crystallize-resulting in tangible"dis-sease" like back pain or muscle stiffness etc.

I agree with @unknown.

Moon/mars tend to have some competitive aura (I think they are always competitive) while Aries moon may have or may have not. For example, my Moon in Aries is not into competition things, maybe because it is in the 4th house? I like being independent though, I think I am super independent, I'm like a lone wolf, I don't mind if I should eat alone in the restaurant or shopping alone, this makes people think I am lonely or need accompany while I just only need to think and to be with myself more.

I just wanted to comment on the competitiveness characteristic that many here attribute to Moon Mars aspect, conjunction especially.

I have this conjunction and I am not competitive at all. You have to look at the chart in detail to see if someone is competitive or not. Just because they have this conjunction doesn't mean they are competitive. Look at it this way, Mars conjuncts Moon, NOT vice versa. So the characteristics of your Moon are altered by Mars. Maybe if your Mars is not afflicted + your Moon is strong too, or conjunction falls in signs like Aries, Leo, Capricorn etc, or 1H, 5H, 10H, 9H then yeah! with this conjunction you can be ambitious and like to be first.

What this conjunction does to me is make me impatient. And assertive, adds confidence. You might think how can I not be competitive with Moon Mars conjunction in 5H, right? But 1) Moon in Aquarius, 2) Mars in Pisces 3) both Moon and Mars are afflicted - squared by Saturn. There you go.

I find that both (Aries moon and moon conjunct Mars) have an unexceedlingy amount of energy. They're fidgety and can't sit still. It must be why they have to do sports, to burn off all that energy.

I met someone at work the other day who was fidgety and seemed to be very energetic. He just could not sit still, like a child almost. Oh gosh, I'm making this sound like he was on something lol. Which isn't the case. He just had lots of energy. So I looked up his chart, thinking he was an Aries moon. He wasn't, but he has a moon-mars conjunction, which made perfect sense.

Crazy how relevant this is to me.
I've had a chronic cough for the past 1.5 years and after countless tests that produce no answers I now know it's because I need to speak my mind and assert myself.

I have a tight Moon-Mars conjunction in Gemini. I surprised myself at work the other night when I looked down and realized I was both bouncing my leg up and down while sitting down and fidgeting with my hands. Thankfully, my coworkers realize that I'm not on anything...I'm just super energetic, even when sitting down!

I used to fidget a lot. I hadn't realized until I saw this, that I don't really fidget anymore. Maybe that's because I distract myself with things like my phone now, or I walk things off. I do fiddle with my hair, or rub my fingers.

What I know a planet touched by an other is more influenced bu that sign then the planet being in the sign itself. Like in this ex: Having a moon in aries without a contact to Mars vs Having Moon conjunct Mars. In the latter The moon conj Mars oerson would be more aries like emotionally then a person just having the moon in aries.

I have Moon Conj Mars in Gemini. I can't hide my feelings if I get for ex upset or angry or irritated, bit I forget and forgive very fast. To make matters worse they are in my MC! So it's all in the open.
My moon definetely is acting like an aries moon. My Mars though, well yes I tend to act when I get emotionally stimulated or what ever one wanna call it. And I can sometimes get passive aggressive and I think its a cancer thing. But other then that My Mars does not act like a cancer Mars, in my opinion but I can be wrong^^

How would a tight aspect of Moon conjunct Mars manifest in the steady and generally slow(er) sign Taurus? I guess I am also asking, would it still be dominantly Aries like energy?

Depends on what sign the conjunction is. If it's in a masculine sign, then mars will override moon, and it would like an aries moon. The other way around would give a feeling of a cancerian mars.

I have the conjunction in gemeni, while I definitely feel both the gemeni moon and mars, I do feel like my emotions are martial. But never got the feeling of having a cancer mars.

It also depends on the placement. Given that my Moon-Mars conjunction is in my 4th house and conjunct my IC, my Mars is more Cancer-like than Aries.

They are not the same.

Aries Moon is honest, direct, emotionally open and approachable.

Moon-Mars conjunction is competitive, combative, and most likely gets into power struggles with women. This aspect has a snarling dog demeanor.

Moon in Aries - approachable

Mars conj Moon - snarly.

Nope.

Moon in the 1st house gives a Cancerian/Lunar vibe. Nothing Martian or Aries about that placement.

I would say so because mars energy will be driven by emotions, need to nurture, need to protect those in need... yes...
