Moon in Aries: The child nurtured in a way that developed strong defences that can make the adult very defensive and wrongly see the person's offering of support, care, and concerned personal questions a threat to defend themselves against just as injustice and cruelty is

Moon in Taurus: The child is very aware of everything that is wrong and disordered but tends to be very mature and show love by means of help and support, but it can leave an adult who is incapable or negligent regarding their own self-care and measures self-value on what they can fix and contribute

Moon in Gemini: Astute intellect and intelligence does not seem to activate until early adulthood, the extreme dysregulation and confusion during adolescence was extreme and greatly effected learning, they changed into many different people so the sense they are without an identity can follow into adulthood

Moon in Cancer: The child may have been emotional in a way that attracted the sort of attention that developed into a self-consciousness or complex about demonstrating or sharing their emotions

Moon in Leo: The highly gifted and talented child who peaked too soon, developed self-consciousness very early and easily, a strong feeling of the need to impress or succeed in order to be loved that is present in the adult

Moon in Virgo: The child is very in tune and responsive to the natural routine and temperament of the parents, especially the mother, and so a tendency to spot subtle signs of distress and unrest in people develops early

Moon in Libra: The child is a magical thinker in the sense they can believe their own actions or presence was the complete cause the adult's bad mood or illness, it can remain a subconscious tendency throughout life

Moon in Scorpio: The child's profound intellect, insight, and observations without way of expressing or verbalising made it can be difficult to relate with children their own age and developed a sense of exclusion or exile that remains into adulthood

Moon in Sagittarius: The child with 'so much potential' but 'lacking in direction, focus, motivation' very intelligent and focused on everything but school when it was measured

Moon in Capricorn: The child who compared their abilities, intelligence, and proficiency to the adults in their lives, so comparison, self-depreciation, and feeling like they have to work harder begun here

Moon in Aquarius: The child is mismatched to the family unit in some way - possibly in temperament, appearance, qualities, and age, but the sense of being 'marked' or 'different' can develop into a lonely exile and dissent at humans or the uplifting knowledge of being rare and special

Moon in Pisces: Can speak an emotional and symbolic language as a child that is rarely understood and leaves the condition of feeling different or unheard, these people do not open up easily because once they start they will never stop because it's going to pour back from the beginning



Moon Signs Grouped By Nature (Fixed,Mutable,Cardinal)



Mutable Signs:

Gemini Moon creates a very wispy emotional nature. Emotions can be highly reactive and shoot so fast within the native they may be hard to pin down. This causes uncertainty towards emotions, as they can happen so fast without acute processing. Nervous energy often results in anxious feelings. Communication is extremely important, so talking or writing may help to sort and soothe emotions. Mental Connection especially with humor is important. Can be childlike and playful.


Virgo Moon tends to analyze their emotions through logic and are prone to locking their feelings away. This often results in being critical to themselves, as they typically expect a lot of themselves. May appear cold towards their emotions but below the surface have a sensitive, thin skinned heart. Their emotions can sometimes be like quicksand, the more they try to lock away what they feel the more it consumes them. Desires for improvement of themselves and the world around them. May look towards meditation, energy healing, coloring or other mind excercises to soothe their anxious nature.


Sagittarius Moon desires freedom in their emotional expression. They will not stand to be caged and are always looking to expand themselves on their emotional currents. Tend to be Philisophocil and youthful. Sagittarius wanders emotionally, never completely being tied down. They don’t usually get upset easily as they prefer to be optimistic. Uses humor to mask pain or discomfort. Uses passion in everything they do, and may discover themselves through their perpetual learning of the world around them. Can be rebels, or leaders. Very few sag moons are followers, as exploration is expansion of their inner most self, and must be done in their own way.


Pisces Moon are deeply immersed in their emotional world. Ultra sensitive, feelings are almost like having their head under water. Emotions are consuming and sometimes may be borderline suffocating. Yet, they also tend to be extremely artistic and imaginative due to this sensitivity. They experience the world with a type of receptiveness that is both passive but understanding, picking up on undercurrents that may be overlooked by other people and are usually compassionate as a result. They typically have high levels of empathy. May also have some escapist tendencies because of the overwhelmingness of their emotions.


Fixed Signs:

Taurus Moon is adept at controlling their emotions effectively, sinking into and out of emotional situations with relative ease. Emotions are manageable, and the Moon is steady. Taurus is naturally nurturing, full of earthy calming energy that tames unprompted internal turmoil, although sudden changes are known to cause anxiety. Childhood is usually full of fond memories. Being ruled by Venus, gives a pleasurable tone to this Moon placement with both planets being feminine, this compliments one another. The Moon is comfortable, and inner peace is easily achievable.


Scorpio Moon is volatile and full of intense watery depths. The stagnant nature of Scorpio’s water gives this Moon a tendency to dwell, harping on emotional experiences. Emotional trauma developed from childhood is indicated, and moving on may prove to be difficult. Mars is Scorpio’s natural co ruler, so it adds turbulent storms in the subconscious. There is no sense of initial contentment such as with Taurus, but a tendency to fight with the inner self. Pluto being Scorpio’s primary ruler indicates many emotionally driven encounters with the shadow self. The Moon is uncomfortable being unable to feel freely without fighting for inner peace.

Leo Moons have a grandiose emotional nature. They don’t feel things lightly but do so in a steady fire that shines brightly- the emotional nature is not dull. There is an inner glow to Leo Moons, as they have big hearts shining from their souls. The Moon here is loud, and emotions demand to be felt. Emotions can be slightly impulsive due to the fire placement, as well as expulsion of those emotions. The sun ruling Leo means there is an inner fire needing love in order to be emotionally satisfied. Love is not limited to romance, but includes platonic love. This love is the reason their inner sunshine exists. The Moon can achieve massive heights of despair or happiness during their lifetime, but it’s the Leo Moons natural optimism that keeps them shining.


Aquarius Moon is often mistaken to be cold, and while there isn’t Leo’s natural warmth, they do feel things intensely. Aquarius is selective on who they let in, being relatively privately, caused by being co ruled by Saturn, a planet who is restrictive. The emotional nature isn’t free, but being constantly regulated and rationalized. Aquarius, being one of the last signs juxtaposition Pisces, feels things on one of the most intense scales. However, uncomfortable with displaying raw emotion, Aquarius often detaches themselves and uses logic to create distance between themselves and their emotions. This can either manifest as a disconnect from themselves and the human nature as a whole, or offer to being a catalyst in which to view and understand human nature as a whole. Aquarius is prone to mood swings being ruled by Uranus and of course being air, but rather then display them, they can create farther distence and try to manage them independently. The moon here is calculating and innovative.


Cardinal Signs:

It is not that Moon in Capricorn people are emotionless, but they have a hard time expressing their emotions to other individuals, even to those who are closest to them. The moon is in detriment here, Capricorn Moons don’t do well with emotions and are cool and collected people very calculating, doesn’t necessarily mean they have selfish intentions thoughwill work hard to provide for those they care about Moon in Capricorn can have some pretty dark emotions from time to time, but they know that when other people express deep emotions to Moon in Capricorns that it makes them uncomfortable; therefore, they do not want to make others uncomfortable with their own feelings.


Aries Moons are very emotional and direct, honest and open with their feelings and can quickly get jealous and confrontational, don’t hold grudges though, usually forgiving. temper tantrums are common with this placementoptimistic, but not prone to repress neagtive emotions, unlike other fire moons.


Libra Moons are gentle and charming, have a way with wordsvery dependent people, might have a constant desire to be in a relationship. dislike conflict, prefer to appear level-headed and diplomatic. could have perfectionistic tendencies.Libra Moons are very emotional and people-oriented. Because of their compassion and consideration for others. But what people seem to dismiss is that they are still air influenced, meaning they process feelings through their intellect and logic. They focus more on the feelings of others than their own feelings due to their need to provide harmony and balance, usually putting their emotional well being aside.


Cancer Moons are only comfortable when their needs and their loved ones’ needs are met. They will go to extreme lengths to provide security, stability, and affection for the people they care about, often smothering their loved ones in the process without realizing it. Essentially, they care too much and they will see a fault in themselves if one of their loved ones are feeling down.
