Ever felt like you can‘t relate to your sun sign?
That‘s probably because you’re not exploring the entirety of your birth chart— you are not just your sun sign. Today, let‘s tackle the topic of moon signs and what they represent.
Your moon sign is your very own emotional compass; it governs your intuition, inner thoughts, your emotional drive, and your impulses— in other words, it is the very soul of your emotional identity. Some people relate more to their moon sign than their sun sign and that's fairly common.
So, what does your moon sign say about you?
1. Aries Moon
Aries moons are far from complicated, in the sense that they know exactly what they want. At their very core, individuals with Aries moon are inherently passionate, independent, and chaotically impulsive. Their childlike charm keeps them youthful at heart. Aries moons tend to be too competitive for their own good, but if they can tap into their competitive spirit in a healthy way they're practically unstoppable.
2. Taurus Moon
Individuals with Taurus moon value their security and sense of home far too much to risk compromising it.

Taurus moons enjoy taking time building emotional connections, although once attached they can never seem to let go even when situations turn toxic.
3. Gemini Moon
If you were born under a Gemini moon, you can be a bit of a sapiosexual. You value, above all else; one's ability to participate in intellectual debates as well as to engage in sparkling banter. Your soul feels especially fulfilled whenever you are able to express your feelings without any restriction. However, at times you tend to struggle in identifying your emotions which leads to your unhealthy habit of beating around the bush when it comes to being completely honest about it.
4. Cancer Moon
Cancer moons are the mother of the zodiac— the moms among your friend group. Their nurturing nature and tendency to make others feel safe in their presence are what defines Cancer moons.

5. Leo Moon
Leo moons always feel like they're the main character; look for the ones who are always enthusiastic in expressing their feelings, going the extra mile to animate the plots in their stories, lots of hand gestures— that's a sure-fire sign of a Leo moon in action. However, if they don't learn to ground their energy, it is easy for a Leo moon to let their egocentricity dominate their emotional identity.
6. Virgo Moon
People with Virgo moons can't help but stress the little details, but it's only because of their thoughtful nature.

They'd surprise you.
11. Aquarius Moon

Their humanitarian nature drives Aquarius moons to dwell in high-minded ideals and movements that benefit the collective.
12. Pisces Moon
