Lunar Pisceans are known to be dreamy and not always in touch with reality.
However, though these people may not always show real world
savvy in day to day, practical affairs, they make up for
this with remarkable intuition. They can put themselves in anybody's
shoes with extreme ease. On the plus side, this endows them
with remarkable compassion and love. The down side with this
apparent ability to break down boundaries is that these
people can easily lose themselves in the suffering of
others.
Their sense of humor is
delightfully silly and a bit odd. These are perceptive souls
who seem to be in touch with all the nuances and subtleties
of human nature. Often this comes through in a strong sense of
humor that is more of the receptive kind than the type of sense of humor
that would make people the "life of the party". It's generally pretty
easy to get them giggling.
Moon in Pisces people may
get tagged as "spaced out", but there's a lot more to them
than meets the eye. They feel things out, and rely on their
intuition. It just doesn't feel right for them to do otherwise. Their
dreaminess can mean plenty of moments of
absent mindedness. These times of oblivion can land them in
all sorts of predicaments with others who can too easily
misunderstand these complex souls. Without plenty of space
and time to daydream, Pisces Moons easily get overloaded
with life. Give them room to be alone with themselves, and
they're generally able to take on the world even if their
style when they do so is not always conventional or
understandable.
Moon in Aquarius people are extremely observant. They are life-time students of human nature, loving to
analyze why people do what they do. This often stems
from a detached even shy personality, especially in youth.
Whether due to character or conditioning, Moon in Aquarius
people often grow up feeling "different". Although rather
sociable, they are often loners at heart. Many have
strong egos, or at least powerful defense mechanisms, and
most Lunar Aquarians will do their best to be the most
unique and unusual person they can be. Their inner feeling
of loneliness that they don't quite fit in puts them on
the outside, looking in.
There is a very idealistic and progressive
streak in Lunar Aquarians that is admirable indeed. However,
when the Moon is in Aquarius, natives often will deny the
more irrational qualities of emotions such as jealousy,
possessiveness, and fear in an effort to be
"above" what they consider "pettiness".
When this goes too far, Lunar Aquarians can be emotionally blocked,
distant, and detached.
Being useful and productive are basic needs for Lunar
Capricorns. Because they generally keep their emotions under
check, Moon in Capricorn people come across as competent
people.
However turbulent their
emotions may be under the surface, Lunar Capricorns keep
cool headed and they come across as steady and reliable
people.
This position of the Moon
suggests a desire for clear boundaries and realistic goals.
Not much for taking risks in life, Lunar Capricorns look for
safety and security in most everything they do. Most of them
respect authority and tradition,
and many are planning well ahead of the rest of us. You
likely won't have to remind them to protect their interests,
plan for old age, or keep fall-back money in their bank
accounts. These things come naturally to them.
More than anything, Lunar Sagittarians have a need for
personal freedom and space. They are extraordinarily happy
and easygoing folk, as long as they don't feel caged in or
cooped up.
Lunar Sagittarians have a
simultaneous need for activity. Meeting new people, going
out in the world, and travel are all important to their
sense of well-being. They love open spaces, and, in their
homes, a roomy and bright environment.
There's a bit of a teacher
in Moon in Sagittarius, and definitely a helpful spirit.
They easily forget appointments and the like, and some are
even considered irresponsible. However, it is hard to stay
angry at a Lunar Sagittarian! They are so cheerful and
upbeat, and their optimism is catchy.
Many people with this
position are outdoorsy types. At the very least, they have a
great love for friendly competition.
When the going gets tough,
these people run away. They don't like to be caught up in
routine for too long, and they simply need to escape.
While others may find security
and comfort in material things, Moon in Scorpio people seek
out emotional intensity. No matter what, there is something
very intense about Lunar Scorpios. They are diggers when it
comes to the world of emotion. they can see beyond facades
and cut right to the core of a person. This ability to
"see" what isn't obvious to the rest of the world
can be intimidating to others or wildly attractive,
depending on the audience.
Their deep-seated need for
transformation and rebirth can manifest itself in the lives
of Lunar Scorpios in different ways. Most have powerful,
emotionally intense lives. Some feel like it is
beyond their control.these natives seem to attract
emotional upheaval, and their lives appear to consist of
plenty of dramatic ups and downs. However, when accepted as an emotional
need, rebirth and change doesn't need to be so dramatic and
overwhelming. In some way or the other, Moon in Scorpio
natives seek out intense experiences. If their lives are
regular in any way, there can be an unconscious need to test
their own strength and stir up emotional excitement. Self-awareness and
acceptance is probably the best way to handle this deep need
for emotional drama.
Doing things halfway or
having meaningless relationships simply doesn't fulfill
them. Lunar Scorpios want all or nothing.
Moon in Scorpio people
often have a strong fear of betrayal. They seek out
commitment, and feel the need for a partner to give up
something for them. Some will put the people they love
through a series of tests, and these are not always
conscious. Their apparent suspicion can be trying for
the people who love them. However, once committed, Moon in
Scorpio people can be the most loyal and protective partners
around.
Moon in Libra people have a
strong need for partnership. Without someone to share their
lives with, they feel utterly incomplete. This is why many
people with this position get involved in marriages or
living-together arrangements quite young.
Because this drive for
harmony, peace, and sharing is so powerful, Lunar
Librans are apt to do a lot of conceding. They are sympathetic and
concerned for others, enjoy socializing, and revel
in a good
debate. Mental rapport with others is especially
important to them.
Lunar Librans feel safe and
secure when they are in a partnership. These are the people
who seem to always need to have someone tag along with them
wherever they go even if it is to the corner store. They
find strength and reinforcement in and through others.
Both men and women with
this position are often quite charming. They can be very
attractive to be around, and are often given to
flirtatiousness. Rarely directly aggressive, these people win
your heart with their gentle and refined ways.
Lunar Virgos find security in the little things in life.
They feel most content when they've straightened out all the
details of everyday life. Many of them enjoy running
errands, paying bills, and balancing the books. They take
care of these things happily, although some won't let on. In
fact, many Lunar Virgos are quite practiced at nagging and
complaining. As long as they are appreciated, however, these
people will help you take care of your life, too.
They are at their best when they feel useful and needed. If
somebody needs help, they are generally the first to jump up
and take on the task.
Some people with Virgo
Moons are accused of being underachievers. While it may be
true that Lunar Virgos can lack self-confidence, many
are quite simply content with living "regular",
unassuming lives. They appreciate simplicity, and are often
most comfortable when they're not getting too much attention
from the world at large. Lunar Virgos are easily overwhelmed
by pressure and stress. They worry incessantly when there is
too much to think about; and they know their limits.
Arguably the worst position
for a Lunar Virgo is without a steady routine or a simply
satisfying job. They need to feel useful, and they best
express this by helping others in little ways. They need
something to call their own, and the space to do what they
want to do.
The unhappy Lunar Virgos
are fussy and complaining sorts. They are victims of routine
and freak out when their plans are not followed. They are
restless and nervous, and can't seem to see the big picture.
Probably the best remedy for these people is a job or hobby
in which they can express their deep need to analyze, attend
to details, and micromanage.
Depending on other positions in the chart, Moon in Leo
people are not necessarily outgoing. When they feel
comfortable, they do like being the center of
attention. That is, they like being in the
"spotlight" in the comfort of their own homes and
with family and friends. They enjoy entertaining others, and
often take on the role of comic.
Lunar Leos often feel a
need to organize, and even control, their families and
friends. They have an inner mission to set things right, and
generally like to oversee the goings-on in their little
circle.
This is a rather creative
position of the Moon. At the very least, Moon in Leo people want
to create and entertain. They can be rather lazy at times,
and a little bossy too. Generally, though, they have a deep
need to treat others fairly and justly.
Lunar Leos require lots and
lots of love and care in order to function well in the
world. When they feel slighted, these people can be dramatic
in their emotional displays. When their pride has been hurt,
they are given to big scenes and sulking. This rarely
happens in public, however. Lunar Leos are far too concerned
about their image to make splashy scenes outside the comfort
of their own homes. In public, they prefer to take things in
dignified ways. At home, however, they're given to big
displays of emotional drama. These scenes generally don't
last too long, however. Lunar Leos are often personally
popular folk who are valued for their integrity and strong
sense of justice.
This is the most subjective position of the Moon. The Moon
is "at home" in the sign of Cancer, as the Moon is
the natural ruler of the sign.
Moon in Cancer natives have
a large potential to be able to get in touch with the
feelings and moods of others. Often, they are quite wrapped
up in themselves. Their memories of the past are
outstanding, especially for all things emotional. Moon in
Cancer people are never detached -- they cling to things,
their home, and people they care for. They seek out security
and familiarity in all they do. They look for peace and
quiet. Their attachment to all that is safe means they are a
little leery of change.
These peace-loving souls
dislike superficiality in all of its forms. They are devoted
and accommodating. The insecure ones accumulate things
in an attempt to feel secure.
Because of their strong
attachment to, and memory of, the past, others may complain
that Moon in Cancer natives tend to whip a dead horse. They
may dwell on hurts long after everyone else has moved on.
When they feel they have been taken for granted (which may
be often!), they don't always confront others directly. This
is when they can use roundabout ways to get your attention.
In fact, these natives, when they are insecure, can become
quite manipulative. They can also be victims of habit.
Lunar Geminis are usually
pleasant, witty, and charming people. At home and with
family, however, they can be moody and irritable at times.
People with Moon in Gemini are always interesting
people they have a finger in every pie, are curious to a
fault, and are generally well-informed.
Nervousness and worry are
common traits with this lunar position. An underlying
restlessness is common, and many Lunar Geminis need more
stimulation than others. They usually read a lot, talk a
lot, and think a lot with this airy, mutable position of the
Moon.
Their homes are often a
perpetual work-in-progress. They generally dislike
housework, but are big on home improvement. Re-organizing
their homes in little and sometimes
big ways seems to keep
them happy, as Lunar Geminis are easily bored by both
routine and constancy. Often, this is a reflection of their
inner world "the grass is always greener..."
applies here. Inwardly, Lunar Geminis are often unsettled.
Moon in Gemini parents are generally more adept at handling
the intellectual needs of their children than emotional
ones. Others' complicated emotions, in general, can be
difficult for Lunar Geminis to handle.
In their families, Lunar
Geminis often take on the role of organizing get-together.
They are at their best when they have plenty of things to do
beyond routine.
Familiarity is important to Lunar Taureans. These people are
earthy and strong-willed. They feel with their senses and
they are pretty much rooted in their ways. They revel in
material comforts--in fact, building a solid and comfortable
home and foundation helps to keep them feeling safe and content.
It isn't wise to try to
push Lunar Taureans into doing anything, but once they have
made a commitment, they're persevering.
There's a steadiness to
this position of the Moon that is comforting to those close
to them. But the conservative streak in these natives can be
maddening to more progressive personalities. They tend
to go out of their way to avoid "messy" or unpredictable
situations, crises, and emotional displays. Instead, they
focus on creating a reliable and secure life around them. In
relationships, Lunar Taureans may not easily recognize their
partner's need for change, growth, or emotional stimulation.
Moon in Taurus natives are
generally very romantic. Their affections are strong, deep,
and unwavering. They are sentimental and warm. Since Taurus
is a practical earth sign, the placement of the Moon in this
sign suggests an ability to protect themselves and their own
interests. They will rarely make a move without first
determining that it is safe and that there's something in it
for them.
Nothing quite happens soon enough with this position of the Moon. There is an inherent impatience with getting what they want. Life is a series of emergencies for Lunar Ari ens. They live in the moment and have a hard time waiting for things to happen. Whims of the moment take absolute precedence in their lives.
This is a fiery position of the moon. Even if the Sun or rising sign is more low-key, Moon in Aries people possess inner passion and fire. Emotional issues take precedence there is simply no pussy-footing around when it comes to dealing with the feelings. And, dealing with new sentiments and needs stirs up a huge desire for activity. Moon in Aries has a need for acting out their needs, with no time to waste. It is hard for them to see the long-term, or to wait for things to happen. Instant gratification rules!
Oddly enough, this is a very defensive position of the Moon. These natives take things very personally, and they deal with problems by facing them right away so that they can then get on with other things. Their flare-ups generally end almost as quickly as they started.
The symbol of Libra is the Scales. As the first sign of autumn, the energy is active and initiating, and as an air sign Libra is mental in nature. Libra is the balance between the purification of the individual in Virgo and the regenerating energy in Scorpio. The autumnal equinox is the balancing point of the zodiac, and Libra as the seventh sign is the first of the objective signs and relates to the other self or the harmony between self and non-self.
Venus is the significant planet giving Libras beauty and a harmonious love nature with refined emotions. As an air sign the love vibration is intellectualized to a love of beauty in the arts, harmony in life, and equilibrium in the mind and the emotions.
The consciousness of Libra is I BALANCE. The mind is rational and tends to weigh both sides and, when detached and objective, is excellent at comparison. However, the emotions tend to subtly attract the mind to the side that feels right. Justice is a prime Libra quality particularly social justice. Like Mahatma Gandhi, they will negotiate and adjust their idealism to change unjust laws and bring greater social justice to oppressed people. They are continually compromising to find a balance within themselves and with others.
