Moon Through the Signs by Cara Rungo

Aries Moon
Moon in Aries is not a good placement. You are emotionally tempestuous and you experience many fits of anger.
You are a fighter by nature, and you will not back down from a battle. In fact, you probably started the conflict.
You love fast, risky and daring ventures, and you live recklessly. You are independent, strong and a leader in your
circle. You possess great passion in any undertaking. You are energetic and always maintain a youthful
appearance. You are usually the first in line, and you must curb your tendencies toward greed, selfishness and
creating conflict.
The mother was selfish and angry, possibly brutal and violent . There is often early childhood sexual abuse. Your
expend much energy in the home, but cleaning your house doesn't quell the war zone in which you live. There is
much inner family feuding, and the relationship with the mother is stressful, sparking arguments between the two of
you. You blame her for events that happened in early childhood.

Taurus Moon
This is an excellent position as the moon is exalted here. You love money. You love food. You love food and
money. Money and food. You love home-baked cookies fresh from the oven, you love fresh crisp hundred dollar bills
and you love land. You need security; you don?t feel secure unless you own a home. You prefer to live in the
country, but because of career, you could make exceptions. A slow lifestyle suits you well as you love to stop and
smell the flowers along the way. Your sense of smell is keen, and you adore sweet soaps and body splashes and
perfumes. The money fluctuates much like the Moon. Money exits as easily as it enters. There could be a pattern
that plays out where you spend more money when you are emotionally upset.
Your mother or mother figure was loving, caring and fed you well. You home will be comfortable and filled with
luxurious surroundings. Your mother was an austere but nurturing individual who was probably a den mother for the
Boys and Girl Scouts. This position suggests money coming from the mother.

Gemini Moon
You love your family. You have a larger family unit that is close-knit. There are plenty of siblings, cousins and
neighbors around you with which you communicate. You are intelligent, witty and charming. You love learning new
things, and you pick up on new subjects that you are interested in rather quickly. You have vast interests, and you
are curious about all sorts of stuff. If the moon is severely afflicted, you might have suffered from some sort of
learning disabilities in early childhood, like reading problems or dyslexia. Reading problems could stem not from
learning disabilities, but rather from boredom or impatience with one subject. They may suffer from hyperactivity or
ADHD. You prefer to live near your family, and you are a great communicator.
Your mother or mother figure was distant, talkative, and she was always on the phone or the internet. She was given
to flights of fancy or accused of being spaced out. She was always involved in the latest gossip circles. Your home
will be filled with educational and communicative devices. Mother surrounded you with books and encouraged
learning in early childhood.

Cancer Moon
The Moon is comfortable here in her home--she is dignified. You are close to your mother and you view her as a
wonderful nurturer who gave you everything you needed. You are close to your siblings. You maintain close family
ties and keep with your clan as many big families do.
You are psychic. You are a sensitive to others and can almost know what they are going to say or how they feel
about a subject or even how they feel about you. This automatically lets you know whether you like a person or not.
You tend to not like people who you feel have snubbed you or if you think they do not like you. You?re changeable
and people accuse you of being too moody, soaking up other peoples' moods like a sponge. Cancer Moon people
should strive to surround themselves with positive, happy people to avoid this tendency to change moods to fit other
people.
You are a good nurturer and people automatically love you and think the world of you. As a parent, you take parental
duties seriously, and believe that both mother and father should be consistent and work together. You are able to
give children a well-rounded education in life. Moon people are caring and loving, but they are prone to being overly
sensitive and prone to tears.

extended to all your friends in childhood. Early childhood memories are usually happy. This sign can recall early
childhood memories from a younger age than most--even infancy.

Leo Moon
The moon is uncomfortable in the sign of Leo. You love the show, and wish it to never end--your show, that is. You
are showy, glamorous and you love everything sparkly. You love all things beautiful, and would not be caught dead
parading around with a partner who is anything but astonishingly gorgeous. You are an actor, and you like to talk to
yourself on a regular basis. You pretend someone is always watching you in act and deed. You love cats best; you
are not a dog person. People in your life have a huge ego to contend with when dealing with you. You are boastful
and self-centered, often neglecting the needs of others because you are so concerned with your own needs. You can
be a big baby, acting out if you don't get your way.

artwork and romanticism.

from. You can be ultra-critical and sharp-tongued. You might be a vegetarian or vegan. You are health-conscious,
understanding that a balanced diet and exercise maintain good health. You are a tidy person. If the moon is severely

afflicted, you might have suffered from some sort of illness in early childhood. Also, an afflicted moon could produce
a messy pig that never cleans up after themselves. You love numbers and feel at home within the world of
mathematics. You also are adept at communicating your emotions, which you understand on a mental level. You
over-analyze everything, including all your emotions and why you feel them. When it comes to love, you head always
rules over your heart. You are quite fond of small household pets; you do not prefer exotic pets.

love. Libra is always floating on a cloud of love, needing to be partnered up at all times. You might suffer from codependency. Marriage is important to a person with Libra moon; he or she will likely marry young unless Saturn is
involved. Divorce is devastating to people with this moon sign placement.

inhospitable. There may have been divorce in the early childhood. Mother expected polite manners from her
children. Your home could have been a war zone, where you played the peacemaker.

Scorpio Moon
The Moon is uncomfortable in Scorpio as it lies in its fall. It complicates the emotions and makes for an emotional
abyss. This makes you passionate and feeling, somewhat psychic and uncannily able to feel the emotions of others.
However, you keep your emotions secret as is the nature of Scorpio. You must curb the tendency to stalk those you
love, as you are prone to obsession. You also suffer from many undesirable behaviors and habits. You lash out and
hurt those that you love if you feel that they've slighted you, even unintentionally. You may subscribe to mysticism.
Early childhood leaves you mistrusting of people as mother broke your trust and kept many secrets. There are many
family secrets and sexual abuse in early childhood. She ruled through guilt and power plays, but defended her child
and her beliefs. Mom got her way. From your mother, you learned to fight for what you want, and you also learned
how to win through extreme measures.

judgmental and possibly religious. Mother traveled either mentally, spiritually or physically.

are mentally and emotionally mature unless the moon is severely afflicted. You are practical and you love the elderly,
saving a special place in your heart for grandma.
The mother was cold and neglectful. She might have appeared rather stern and was swift to discipline. You may
have suffered from hunger in early childhood, whether from lack of financial capability or abuse. The home was
probably filled with antiques and old things, including clocks. Somehow, time played an important role in your
childhood; either you couldn't wait to grow up or you were late in developing.

quirky and fun to be around and you love all of humanity--you're not picky. You are emotionally aloof and cold,
preferring to let your head rule your heart. You love your friends, and you believe that life with friends is worth living.

have been rather charitable and forgiving of poverty. She instilled the basics that you should follow your hopes and
dreams, whatever they may lead. The home may have been comprised of milled together pieces of furniture and odd
novelty items. She had an eclectic assortment of items in the home while growing up--sometimes a downright weird

from wounds, which are many. You are ultra-sensitive and your feelings are easily hurt. Melancholia may plague you
and depression is not uncommon. In a relationship, there is a tendency to be co-dependent. You might even be
afraid to be alone with yourself for fear that all your emotional upheaval will come flooding back onto you. But, what
you don't realize, for one reason or another, is that you are actually a strong person. You are psychic, uncannily
knowing things without explanation. You may even be a gypsy mystic who dabbles in the occult. There is a fondness
for small household pets.
The mother was a matyr who rescued bad people from themselves, pets from the human society and stray childhood

friends from their bad home life. She was preoccupied. You may have raised yourself, or you could have been
raised in a foster home or some sort of institution. Drugs and alcohol play a role in the home during early childhood.
