What Is Your Moon Sign?
Author: GuestPoster
Most people know their sun sign, the zodiac sign that roughly equates to the calendar month of their birth. But did you know that there is also an opposite, known as the moon sign?
The meaning of the moon sign
Astrologers believe that just as people have a sun sign representing the life and ego of each person, so they have a moon sign. The moon sign is said to mean the emotions and habits of a person. If the sun sign is what you consciously try to be and be known for, the moon sign shows what your automatic responses and feelings are.
To illustrate this, suppose your sun sign is Leo yet your moon sign is Virgo. You dream big; you like being the center of attention and making a display of your abilities. But your first reaction to things is to attempt to analyze and rationalize them. Despite a need to show off, you hold yourself on check due to an instinctive, emotional urge to make sure everything is done perfectly.
The moon sign in relationships
Feelings are always at the forefront in personal relationships such as marriage and family. Even at work and business, feelings are important because they let you connect with other people easily. Plus a strong emotional nature translates to good intuition at the job.
Your moon sign is important in relationships. In all astrology and compatibility reports, you will find it gets a lot of attention. When you and your partner have the moon in friendly signs (toward each other), it is much easier to connect and “click” together. When they are in unfriendly signs, you need to adjust to each other to understand and accommodate each other’s needs and habits.
The moon sign in event-planning
In astrology, the moon is extremely important in event-planning, a practice known as electional astrology. As the moon passes through each of the zodiac signs, its influence changes. Therefore a particular moon sign is said to support some activities and events more than others. Astrologers pick dates when the moon is in this or that zodiac sign depending on what needs to be done. Many books on astrology as well as computer programs can help you track the moon’s journey.
So whenever you decide to study astrology, don’t forget the moon sign. It is just as important as the sun sign, and for some perhaps even more so.
