The Meaning Of The 12 Moon Signs, Because There's So Much More To Your Astrological Makeup Than Your Sun Sign

When someone asks your astrology sign, they are asking for your sun sign. There is a lot more to your astrological makeup than your sun sign!

Many people don't believe they fit into the stereotype of their astrological sign. This is due to the fact that there's a lot more in play than just your sun sign.

Your sun sign is based off of your date of birth. Your moon sign is determined by not only your date of birth, but also by the time and location of your birth. Another difference between your sun and moon sign is that, while your sun sign denotes your astrological personality, your moon sign denotes your inner moods and emotions. The two work hand-in-hand to compose your emotional makeup.

You can find out your full birth chart on any astrological calculator, easily found online. All astrological complexes use the same terminology as the sun signs. Here is the breakdown of what each moon sign typically means:

1. Aquarius Moon Sign

You strive off of friendship, and you need a common cause in your life and in your relationships.

2. Pisces Moon Sign

You need fantasy, compassion, and creativity in all aspects of your life.

3. Aries Moon Sign

You like challenges and action. You often need to be the "first" to do something.

4. Taurus Moon Sign

You need stability, both emotionally and physically.

5. Gemini Moon Sign

You need constant communication from everyone in your social circle. You often get bored if conversations aren't stimulating.

6. Cancer Moon Sign

You require safety and seek comfort. You can seek comfort in certain foods, surroundings, or comfy clothes.

7. Leo Moon Sign

You are constantly thriving for attention and affection. You love glamour and the more materialistic things to show off in social situations.

8. Virgo Moon Sign

You are much like Gemini when it comes to stimulating conversations; the difference is that you need to feel as if you helpful to all.

9. Libra Moon Sign

10. Scorpio Moon Sign

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
