Updated: May 9, 2019

Our moon signs are an important part of our natal chart. Usually while looking at our birth charts, we would first look into our sun sign, and then follow up with our moon sign. Our moon sign is described in the same way the sun sign is, but instead of the description telling us about who we’re becoming or have grown to be, our moon sign goes deeper.


The Deeper You

Our moon sign rules our emotions. This sign describes our subconscious, how we love and would liked to be love and can even boils down to our relationship with our mother. The moon changes sign every 2-3 days. So, while the sun can stay in a sign for around 30 days, the moon is ever changing. This is the reason why even though some people may be the same sun sign, they’ll most likely have differences in their personality. To find your moon sign, you will need to know the time you were born, as well as what city you were born in. There are several calculators for your moon sign on the internet. I would suggest: https://cafeastrology.com/whats-my-moon-sign.html.

How Does the Moon Effect the Sun?

Your moon sign can highlight and diminish certain aspect of your sun sign. Say you have a fire sun sign, but a water moon sign. Your aggressive fiery nature may be tamed by your watery moon. It is helpful to know your moon sign, especially if you feel that you don’t exactly match up with your sun sign. Once you have used the calculator to investigate your moon sign, Since moon signs are more about how you feel than how you act, the descriptions below should explain how your moon sign makes you feel, as well as how the ones closest to you are able to see you.
