The Moon In Astrology

The Moon In Astrology

The Moon represents how we  absorb and interacts with our environment on a subconscious and intuitive level, including our emotional nature. The moon is how we feel emotionally fulfilled. The Moon moves into a new sign every two and a half days and is constantly moving. This is why the Moon is exalted in Taurus. As Taurus represents stability, the moon desires feeling stable instead of the constantly need to chop and change. As the moon is always moving, it needs a safe environment to express. This is why the moon feels comfortable in Cancer as Cancer represents safety. The Moon represents how we care and protect ourselves within our environment. Our moon allows us to empathise and connect with others to feel a level of safety. The Moon also links us to our mother and family environment. The specific sign of the moon does not always represent a good or bad upbringing. To understand the upbringing, the sign of the moon is an indication of the environment, but you must look at the condition of the 4th house and the aspects to the moon. To understand the emotional needs of the moon, you must first understand each sign and house and what they all represent.
