When the composite Moon is conjunct, sextile, or trine composite Mercury: 

You easily share personal information with each other, and probably delight in so doing. This is a chatty aspect that indicates much exchange, stimulation, and a mutual desire for variety and changes in the environment. Together, you like to keep busy, and if you share a home, the atmosphere is active and involved. You tend to be sensitive to each other's feelings and moods, and turn to each other for easy conversation. You may delight in sharing memories with one another. The female in this relationship may be quite talkative, finding a wonderful outlet in her partner. As a couple, you are involved with each other and find it quite easy to solve problems in a rational and reasonable manner.   

When the composite Moon is square, or opposition composite Mercury:

One of the challenges of your relationship is the tendency to take things personally. It can be difficult to discuss things in a rational or objective manner, as you are sensitive to the words your partner uses, and you take things personally. There can be a rather restless quality to your relationship that disturbs the peace more times than may be welcome. If you share a home, it may be hard to run a calm household for whatever reason. You may be very chatty with one another, but intimate communication can be wanting simply because each of you may be ultra-sensitive to your partner's responses. There can be a nervous, dissatisfied, or unsettled element of your relationship that makes it hard to spend quiet, calm moments with one another. At the root of this problem is a tendency to either rationalize emotions that cannot be rationalized, or emotionalize things that should be approached in a more detached manner. Often, it is a tendency to do both at different times! Communication between you may seem superficial, as you tend to skirt the deeper issues. Bickering about who left the toilet seat up or who forgot to put the cap on the toothpaste will get you nowhere! Peace and comfort can only come when you trust each other to find the root of any problems between you, and when you can let down the defenses long enough to really listen to what your partner needs and wants.
