Hot Dry. Each sign divides into three faces of ten degrees, ruled in the Chaldean order by Mars, Sun and Venus.

Aries sits opposite Libra, and the two are read as one axis rather than as rivals.

What the Moon in Aries describes

With the Moon in Aries, your feelings move fast, hot, and straight. They flare up and pass quickly. That does not make you shallow. It makes you honest. You can raise your voice in an argument and share a meal with that same person half an hour later. For you, emotion is a current to release, not a weight to carry. Holding it in hurts. You protect the people you love with direct action. The risk is that one hot sentence can take days to repair. Your growth is learning the line between reacting and being brave. One slow breath is a way to respect yourself and the person in front of you.

Frequently asked

What does a Aries Moon mean?

That the Moon stood in Aries at your birth, a cardinal Fire sign ruled by Mars. The Moon describes emotional nature and what you need to feel settled.

Do I need a birth time for my Moon sign?

Ideally yes. The Moon changes sign every two and a half days, so a birth on a boundary day can fall either side of it.

Is the Moon sign more personal than the Sun sign?

It is more private rather than more important. The Sun is the direction a life takes; the Moon is how it feels from the inside.
