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

Your surroundings need to be in harmony and contain beauty. You are a very aesthetically-inclined person.

10. Scorpio Moon Sign

You are more of a private person. You are also constantly searching to be apart of a "power-duo" relationship.

11. Sagittarius Moon Sign

You constantly seek adventure in even the smallest tasks. You also try to surround yourself with variety in many aspects.

12. Capricorn Moon Sign

You strive for longevity. You are constantly trying to create something that will last far past your years; this is also very true when it comes to your legacy.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior.

Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
