I was thinking and an interesting question came to mind.

Between a person with the Sun in a certain sign and another person with their Moon in the same sign, which person (usually) turns out to be a better embodiment of that sign? Because we've all met people who defy the Sun sign stereotypes and it's usually because of their Moon.

From my own observations, people take on the persona of their Sun but most people really embody the energy and essence of their Moon just as much (if not more) than their Sun. Also, people who are more instinctual and emotional (as well as those who are rather unevolved) act out their Moon much more than their Sun.

its the sun...the sun is the largest star in this galaxy, plus 80% of our personality comes from the sun...the moon rules our emotions...some people just happen to be more emotionally motivated

------------------
I once saw a sign that said "sin is death" but if "all deaths are suicide (linda goodman)" and suicide is sin, then shouldnt "death is sin" be more appropriate?

which is bad, make them have bad decisions, less career success, causes loss or ending of relationships etc.

Note: I am not telling inner voice or instinctual guidance, they are different

hmm interesting question, i have thought of this before.

I think there can be various things to look at. I am a Gemini Sun, Cancer Moon and so with the sun being in a friendly sign and the moon being in its royalty whcih energy is stronger? the rest of my charts energies will dertermine. But generally i feel Masculines Sun/Moon show their energy more. Even if they are strong elsewhere that will always be their face and the way they go about getting things done.

So getting back to your question, whos Sun & Moon energy is more evident? Imo,on a basic level(without looking at dominants) Masculine Sun & Moon signs. Atleast this is what i have experienced.

ahah Nicki i said on a basic level(without looking at dominants) as there is much more to look into in a charts energies. and of coarse this is only my opinion from what i have observed.

What are your sun moon placements? if you do not mind me asking

Pullen Report:

I am a sun virgo with moon in pisces and strongest planet in my chart is neptune and strongest sign is sag and second strongest planet Jupiter and I have south node in Sag.

I am analytical and practical but that is as far as I go been like a virgo...I am not super detail oriented or picky or super organized or a clean freak. People say sag when they guess my sign and not virgo. I dont plan things ahead of time, more like a day in advance...

Edit:

the way I function is that I use my virgo qualities when it will help me figure something out or get something done but the rest of the time I am more sag, pisces and leo (venus, mars in leo).

I lean toward the Sun as a "purer" example of the sign. However, because the Moon represents subconscious needs, I think that can sometimes highlight more raw and subtle things about the sign's nature.

Meh, I don't think being emotionally motivated is always automatically a bad thing. I've found that people who are NOT in touch with their own emotions (i.e. cannot acknowledge their own insecurities or blind spots) can be just as delusional and prone to screwing up relationships/career. In both cases it depends on the person's maturity.

The Sun is not the largest star in this galaxy, I think you mean solar system (in that case it is also the ONLY star). Or maybe you mean closest star. The Sun isn't very large at all compared to other stars.

Anyway, people don't act like their Suns but its not necessarily because of their Moons, but other factors in their charts. Sag is the strongest sign in my chart, despite being an Aqua with a Libra Moon. In the case of Sun vs Moon, I would go with Sun. The Moon still gets filtered by the Sun.

Personally, once I find out someone's Moon sign, I tend to notice it more than their Sun. Even upon first meeting someone! I'll, say, try to guess and end up guessing their Moon.

Redscorp...I feel that is true too...my sun/mars/venus conjunction in aries friend is more his singleton moon in capricorn in the fourth house...he collects odd things, relatively old, and he is delighted and joyed by ambitious accomplishments, such as writing a song, but evne when we do it's not good enough...where as my sun in cap is mostly geared towards long range goals, but my moon in pisces is delighted simply by looking or hearing art/music...or play marry had a little lamb.

It's semi obvious why he would act more like his Moon sign, in the case of your friend, Chironrising. Singleton planets tend to express themselves in a more obvious way and the Moon is its strongest in the 4th house. He has an exceptionally strong Moon.

Good point Amowls...I forgot that....and capricorn is the opposite of cancer...which adds another interesting dynamic...like a good balance...not too maternal, and not too paternal, just right...

he also has a sun opposition to jupiter conjunct saturn in libra in the 12th and sometimes he's like two people....

Lately i've been having friends with venus,mars,sun conjunctions, is this common? I have a mars and venus conjunction but not near the sun...it's on the mc.

Depending on the issues one is dealing with does the planets play importance. Neither the moon, sun, or rising are a stronger importance. We came from the moon in a previous life and are progressing to the sun lessons in this life. The rising is our personality. The moon people are stronger in the essence of the same sign as the sun only because the sun people haven't emboided their lessons in this life. We are not aloud to stay in our moon sign for long periods so that we journey towards the sun.

Definitely the sun. The sun is the core of who we are, and the moon definitely colors it, but the sun is always who you are.
