Sun square Moon natal is one of the most challenging aspects to master because it causes stress, friction, conflict and crises. It often indicates a problematic childhood with tests and setbacks. You may have had misunderstandings with your parents, or the relationship between your parents may have been tense or aggressive.

Your need to shine as an individual may conflict with your need for emotional security. What you want to do is often challenged by emotional pressures; your heart and head are not always working together. You will likely experience many ups and downs, with many dramas, especially with superiors and authority figures.

Negative emotions can rise up and get expressed through your ego. This can make you irritable, and you may even become quite combative. People may, therefore, be defensive around you, which is often the cause of relationship problems. The best approach is not to react emotionally or take things too personally.

However, being born on a quarter moon makes you tough and resilient. It gives a lot of strength for assertion and defense. This makes you highly motivated and ready for action.  You have the strength to struggle through difficulties and achieve things.

Despite the challenges of this aspect, the Sun square Moon is considered a positive influence. It pushes you to outstanding achievements in life despite the setbacks. You may have to prove something to the world. You have to fight harder than most to succeed but have great powers of regeneration to come back after a setback.

The aim here is not to react too emotionally or take things too personally under this influence.

The square aspect gives the push needed to face and deal with these problems successfully.
