"in a" means that in a single mood. We're not sure if he's feeling bad for a single reason.

We should not use "a/an" before uncountable things.
Ex:
She gives a good advice (it is wrong).

@All.
As per me, The word "a" is an indefinite article. We use "a" before singular countable nouns when referring to something non-specific. "Mood" is a singular countable noun, so adding "a" makes the sentence grammatically smoother.
