People who have Moon in aspect to Uranus in their birth chart love and thrive on the surprised reactions and love to always push the boundaries and question what is « normal ». Don’t tell them how they should dress, and behave, who they should date and how they should respond to social interactions. They hate doing something because they have to, and they only proceed the way they want to. They are great outside-the-box thinkers. I remember dating a Moon square Uranus man and he told me one time: "I didn't want to go to this party, but when I asked you if I should, you said it was better I didn't. So I went." There's really a strong sensitivity to being told what to do.

Maybe there were several partners that may have been violent to the mother or the child, or maybe the child was regularly grounded at home which made them crave the freedom of the outside world.
They may have moved a lot, forced by sudden events or because they led an unstable life. The person could struggle staying with the same partner, but this would happen only if they can’t have the space and freedom they need to express their emotions and personality.
