Sunday April 13^th — The Moon makes a square aspect to Mars, and a few hours later the ingress to Scorpio with a quincunx aspect to Neptune in Aries. This aspect precedes Mars ingress to Leo when Mars will make a trine aspect to Neptune, although there is some foreshadowing of this aspect as the Moon transits  from the square aspect to Mars to the opposition aspect to Neptune. This constitutes a warning of an aggressive nature. Mars, as the ruler of Aries, is the dispositor of Neptune. Therefore, Neptune acts in favor of Mars initiatives.

Making corrections in self-interest is facilitated.  Mars trine aspect to Mercury in Pisces as the goal to release captives is an achievement, also provides motivation.

If Mars is considered as the older ruler of Scorpio, then Mars in Cancer is disposed of my the Moon in Scorpio, disposed of by Mars in Cancer, and therefore Mars and the Moon are in mutual reception.
