The Moon
Emotions and the inner weather
The Moon is what you need before you can be brave. Instinct, memory, the private climate of a life.

In your chart
Moon in your sign
Tap the sign your Moon was in at birth. You will need a time for this one — the Moon changes signs every two or three days.
House
Moon in the houses
The house is where feeling happens — family, work, the hidden rooms. You need a birth time for this.
How to read it
What Moon is doing in a chart
The Moon is the private climate. Hunger, memory, the body before language. It is what you do when nobody is watching, and what you need before you can be generous with anyone else.
People meet your Sun. They live with your Moon. In love it is often the Moon that decides whether a house feels like home. In work it is the Moon that decides whether a success actually lands, or just looks good on paper.
If the Sun is the plot, the Moon is the weather the plot has to walk through. Read them together. A loud Sun with a tender Moon is a different life from the reverse.
The Moon moves fast. Without a birth time you can miss the sign entirely, and you will miss the house. It rules the body, sleep, food, and the first room you ever felt safe in.
