Mars in Aries will feel too pushy for Moon in Cancer, but she&#8217;ll push back with a self-protective swipe. A volatile interplay of passionate jousting will be set up, because each partner is strong in the sign they rule (Mars rules Aries and the Moon rules Cancer).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mars in <a href=\"http:\/\/sasstrology.com\/aries-man-woman\">Aries<\/a> is the warrior, driven by the desire to win.<\/strong> Making the first move, beating the competition and breaking new ground are expressions of his will. His actions <em>are<\/em> who he is; he gets restless (and can feel as if his life force is draining away) if he&#8217;s bored or restricted. Mars in Aries is a passionate partner who does best with a lover who allows him room to move forward, but who\u00a0also challenges him. If she can provide him with a series of small battles (that he eventually wins, but not too easily) she&#8217;ll maintain his heat and interest.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Moon in <a href=\"http:\/\/sasstrology.com\/cancer-man-woman\">Cancer<\/a> is the warrior, driven by the need to protect her space.<\/strong> This (initially) cautious Moon is not typically viewed as a warrior, but her Cardinal impulses and need to nurture home and family make her the original Mama Bear if she feels her den is threatened. Moon in Cancer&#8217;s lover will reap the benefits of her nurturing, but will discover her volatile side if he doesn&#8217;t respect her boundaries (or if someone threatens him).<\/p>\n<p>Mars in Aries will put the moves on Cancer, and she&#8217;ll retreat into her shell. If he persists, she&#8217;ll jab at him with a warning to back off, which will only encourage him. They&#8217;ll do this little dance for awhile, until (or if) Moon in Cancer decides that&#8217;s it&#8217;s safe to let him in. There&#8217;s no fear of things becoming stagnant, because Aries will always be challenged by Cancer&#8217;s unpredictable moods, triggered because he&#8217;ll make her feel on edge with his dislike of domestic coziness. This union can work, as long as Aries respects Cancer&#8217;s need for safety, and Cancer respects Aries&#8217; need for freedom. If they have a common domestic goal, they can band together and create a formidable, protective army of two.<\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"http:\/\/sasstrology.com\/mars-moon-compatibility\">View all the Mars-Moon combinations \u203a\u203a<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mars in Aries&#8217; desire to conquer will challenge Moon in Cancer&#8217;s need to protect, creating some interesting and passionate battles.<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-p\"><a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/?p=69882\">Read more &rarr;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":30,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[],"tags":[7547],"class_list":["post-69882","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","tag-mars-moon"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pekXVE-ib8","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69882","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/30"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=69882"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69882\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":70057,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/69882\/revisions\/70057"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=69882"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=69882"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/astrologyblogger.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=69882"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
