What
are Moon Signs?
The
Moon goes through all the Zodiac within its 28 day cycle, unlike the sun
and other planets, which take much longer.
The
Sun influences our expressive energy in how we portray our personality,
The Sun therefore represents the way we are seen by everyone else. The
Moon however represents the more impressionist side and our inner world of
feelings and emotions, it is how we really feel inside.
The
Sun rules the daylight hours, and shows what we can see in the light, but
moonlight has an altogether mysterious side, with deeper more hidden
aspects of ourselves.
When
the Moon is in a certain sign of the zodiac, then the characteristics of
that sign will colour the moon's expression. If you don't know what your
moon sign is and would like to find out, just drop me an e-mail with your
time, date and place of birth.
The
Moon in each Sign
or
more correctly, what the Moon in each Zodiac sign represents
Moon
in Aries
Impatient,
with the need to act now and think later. You will find it hard to
understand another's opposing view as the Aries characteristics will put
you ahead and first. You need to do things your way, and now, if at all
possible. You are quick thinking, with a love of the instantaneous, and
get bored with minor practical details. You are straight, with no hidden
agenda. What you see is what you get but you have a wonderfully warm
heart, which spreads out to those in the world who need comfort.
Moon
in Taurus
Sexy
and sensual, the Venus ruled sign of Taurus luxuriates in the tactile and
sensuous. You are generally emotionally stable and strong, forming loyal
bonds of friendship. Any change can be seen as a threat, as stability and
continuity are vital, bringing a desire for traditional values and
outmoded ways of being. Sometimes, a perceived threat can bring out your
jealous side, as you will do anything to preserve what you already have.
You are even known to test relationships to see if they stand up to a
challenge. You just have to feel very secure! And you will put up with
more than most, rather than give up at the first hurdle.
Moon
in Gemini
Nervous,
witty and changeable, you thrive on communication and the cut and thrust
of the social world. Boredom is something you will not tolerate, and a
changing lifestyle suits you fine. Sometimes you are up and sometimes you
are down, but wherever you are you won't be there long. The spoken word is
your main means of relating and you are able to come up with the perfect
put-down as well as impress others with your cleverness and wit. Working
in media and travel is perfect for you, as well as sales. You could push
yourself too hard and feel exhausted when you have overdone the partying,
But after a brief respite, you are ready to go headlong into the world
again. You are unlikely to be happy with your own company for very long.
Moon
in Cancer
Sympathetic,
kind and compassionate you are sensitive to others' feelings and are drawn
to the underdogs, and downtrodden in society. A hard luck story wins you
over every time, and it's as well to carry a box of tissues with you. Your
emotions rear up at every opportunity, whether it's love, fear, grief or
joy. Nothing is half hearted for you. A psychic sensitivity can be a
blessing or a curse, as you pick up atmospheres so easily. Sometimes, you
expect others to see and feel the world as you do, and nothing is worse
than having your poor sensitive heart ignored as you feel hurt and
rejected by other less sensitive souls. You keep memento's of your life
from the first four leaf clover you found, to the battered photo of your
fist love, all tied up with pink ribbon.
Moon
in Leo
You are
a natural leader, and exude energy and drive. You are generous,
encouraging and optimistic and have a grandiose sense of style. Nothing is
done in half measures when you're around, and you set high standards for
others as well as yourself. You like to make a statement, and don't like
the idea of being ignored. Drama allows you to express yourself and if
life is a little dull, then you are brilliant at creating a one act play
to put everyone on their toes. You love excitement and action, and can be
fabulously romantic, but you expect the works in return. You will not
tolerate ingratitude but warm to your loved one's response if they are
suitably impressed by your wonderful nature.
Moon
in Virgo
You are
sociable, logical, clear headed and always seem to be busy organising and
arranging the next big event. Although you work well behind the scenes,
unlike the Leo Moons, you will sometimes have a strong social conscience
and will question the status quo, not accepting things at their face
value. Your sign is ruled by Mercury, so communication is vital,
particularly if it involves facts and information rather than dreamy
philosophies. You have a strong personal code of conduct and set high
standards, regarding loyalties towards friends and loved ones. Even though
you may not actually write lists, you have the ability to think through
the scenarios in your life into a logical order, rather than firefighting
when trouble hits. You plan ahead for all eventualities in a clear logical
way.
Moon
in Libra
You
can be charming and creative, looking for both harmony and excitement.
Your diplomacy skills are beyond question but your ability to see both
sides can sometimes leave you sitting on the fence. Hence the need for
great negotiating skills to get yourself out of a tight corner. You love
to initiate new projects but can get bored when the first excitement wears
off and you will cast around for the next thing to be involved in. A trail
of broken hearts could lie in your wake as you charm, conquer and retreat.
But you do have the ability to be a peace maker when others are locked in
dispute. You can see both sides and perceive the underlying tensions. Not
only that, you are able to articulate you findings beautifully.
Moon
in Scorpio
'How
deep is your love?' With the Moon in Scorpio, depth, passion and intensity
imbue your relationships. You are able to inspire others as you will not
shirk in the face of unpleasant situations and can speak up for the
underdog. You know no fear, and will not be put off by society's views
when it comes to choosing who is in your life. But you keep many emotions
under wraps, and others can be unaware of your true feelings until you let
rip at the last straw. Time alone is important for you to process your
feelings and come to terms with some of the injustices of the world. You
are no lightweight ,superficial, social animal but you have a strong moral
conscience. When tragedy hits, you are a survivor and will return scarred
but ready to face life again. Your strong intuition and psychic abilities
allow you to see below the surface.
Moon
in Sagittarius
You
love independence, the freedom of your spirit, and do not like to be
trapped either physically, intellectually or emotionally. You are
adaptable and attract many friends who warm to your gregarious nature. You
have a need to keep moving, and exploring different views and ways of
being. The next horizon is continuously moving, drawing you into it. You
are not necessarily materialistic and experience counts more than the
acquisition of objects, although you may be driven to spending your hard
on earned cash on travelling. You are a firm believer in justice and fair
play and will help out anyone who is need, or who has been unfairly
treated. You only fault is that you could be too optimistic and have to
learn a realistic approach through experience and life's lessons.
Moon
in Capricorn
You
have an earthy practicality, giving dependence and a sense of
responsibility towards those around you. You are enduring and brave and do
not shrink from less than pleasant tasks, if you see a sense of duty. You
could be a little shy or reserved and will not be given to spontaneous
outburst of emotion. Later in life, you appear cool and in control, and
with your life stretching before you as a series of planned events and
expectations. You could be loyal and unswerving when you eventually give
your heart to someone else, and will stick around when others have given
up, You fear humiliation and will carry around a hurt or slight long after
the incident has been forgotten by everyone else. You have dignity and
tenacity and a realistic vision of the world as it really is, not as
others expect it to be.
Moon
in Aquarius
You are
cool, humanitarian and idealistic. You are able to care for the global
village but could be a little detached when it comes to those closer to
home, paradoxically. You have integrity and honesty and cannot be accused
of double dealing or cheating. You will tell it like it is, even though
the truth may hurt, because the truth matters whatever the cost. You have
your own set of moral standards which may not coincide with society's and
your friends and acquaintances come from a broad spectrum. It's fine by
you that you can befriend a homeless down-and-out and still be mates with
the aristocracy. Others' rules are not yours. You are not likely to ask
for help when you are in trouble although you are ready to help others,
especially if it's a cause close to your heart. With more than a casual
eye on the future, you are ready to break rules and boundaries in your
quest for new ways of being.
Moon
in Pisces
Sacrifice
is a word associated with this moon sign. If someone else's need is
perceived to be greater than yours, then you willingly will give away all
that you have, and quite often what other's have to, without always
checking if its okay! Creativity is strong, and a desire to make the world
a better place drives you forward. Indeed you hate ugliness and disharmony
in any form. Psychic awareness is strong and you have the ability to pick
up on subtle signs and signals that others miss. There is a danger to
become a martyr, and let your needs fade into insignificance, and
conversely the opposite could be true in some cases, in that your world,
your life, your vision becomes all encompassing. Boundaries are hard to
define with this moon sign and they can be accused of getting involved in
other people's problems, sorting the world out ,without asking. Toes can
get trodden on!
