??It seems they both represent the personality. The Sun is the higher self and the moon is the lower right? Do you act out your Sun when you are in the moment? Does the moon represent your inner voice? It's really difficult to differentiate between the Sun and Moon when they both pertain to your conscious If you were a sun water sign which operates on emotion it seems you'd be more responsive to your moon properties IP: Logged |

To me they represent masculinity and feminity. Sun being masculine and Moon being feminine. Sun represents the logical side of you, Moon represents the intuitive side, the two hemishperes of the brain, let's say. If you're in tune with your Sun your logic will function properly, if you're in tune with the Moon your intuition will. quote:

Yes, that's why Sun does not feel at home in Water Signs. It needs a sign representing masculine energy, Leo. Moon needs the opposite, Cancer or Taurus. To answer your main question, you'd know in the moment, it depends on how you feel at that particular moment, masculine or feminine, if you're taught to repress either one of these energies then you might not feel it much because you'd be busy controlling the energy, like a man was taught to repress the feminine energy and a woman was taught to repress masculine energy until recently.

From an instinctive level, the Asc is expressed. Its a default mode of expression. Often the mode of expression on an ad-hoc, surface way.The Sun is expressed when people are connecting from more than a superficial level i.e likes, dislikes, shared experiences,life perspective/outlook etc. The Moon is more intimate and can be found to be rampant in its expression with close associates and friends. It is a deeper layer of the self and is the most intimate part of ourselves. The closer someone is to us, the more they see our Moon sign. Or experience the many aspects to it. Often times however, it does happen that the Moon shows itself up sooner than said above i.e a very talkative Scorpio with Moon in Gem, an agressive Pisces with Moon in Leo, a charming Cap with Moon in Libra, a chilly Gemini with Moon in Cap or a reserved Sag with Moon in Taurus. I usually notice Mars sign in both sexes.

I'm not sure. Although I don't see the moon and sun energies as masculin vs feminine.
Both have different energies, right. But to call them masculine energies vs feminie does not feel right to me.I have taurus sun and Gemini moon, but my moon is very well aspected so I can't detangle it that easily, what is what energy etc. And My sun is in power play with being oppo Pluto so there is that. Interestingly, when I started with astrology and tryed to train my abilities to sence other peoples planets and signs, everytime I thought I was getting their Asc vibe and thought "Oh this person is Leo rising!" or "This person is definitely a Capricorn rising!" etc. And later looked up their charts, It was their moon I sensed! I still have an easy time getting a persons Moon and also Venus signs/vibe right. IP: Logged |

Not exactly. Moon = feminine, retentive, receptive, inner, subjective principle.
Sun = masculine, willful, expressive, external, objective principle. Do you act out your Sun when you are in the moment? Does the moon represent your inner voice? It's really difficult to differentiate between the Sun and Moon when they both pertain to your conscious quote:

I think there's an element of truth in that, but I wouldn't make it a rule. Sign-based. Astrology is primarily planets. Sun is confidence and your strength, generation of energy.
Moon is receptivity and sensitivity, generation of memory and response -- patterning at the emotional level.

the way i understand it the moon is instintive and it comes as second nature to you. you do not need to think to act your moon. your emotional needs, your need to belong, what makes you feel secure or insecure are associated to your moon sing and placement. what makes you calm down when or what you instintively do when nervous is moon. the way you life the cycles of nature and are atune to it is moon. it is easy to be your moon. and i have never met a person who do not express the moon no matter how other influences contradict the moon placement another story with the sun. the sun is potential and it needs to be developed. it is that part of you who wants to make a mark in the world. we fullfill our destiny when we we fullfill the sun. sometimes the moon needs (needs to belong for example) make the sun purpose difficult and sometimes when the only placement in the sign of the sun is the sun it is difficult to see it. I have met many people that you cannot figure out how they can be certain sun sign because there is nothing there about the sun. the more the person undertand and become in touch with the solar purpose, the more the sun start shinning, but it must become conscius process. unless the moon that can be acted unconsciously, the sun is conscious.

Nordicsoul Yes thats what I read too! The sun is the identity and potential, hence it will develop over time. And of course one has to wanna develop their sun identity (or the sun signs positive sides) in order to reach their full potential.Thats for ex why I guess I really like the Libra Venus energy. But I find the Sun libra energy not that nice. I think its because the Libra sun needs lots of work to reach their potential. IP: Logged |

is it possible that you could be following your sun sign even if it isn't a "positive" identity? or a "good" path?for example what if you are a successful drug lord like (Pablo escobar) was it in his fate or potential to be what he was? following your sun sign could mean you are MEANT and PLACED here to what god planned. what if that meant consistently suffering for others? (such as jesus, I'm pretty sure the normal man wouldn't want his fate) his destiny was to DIE for us to ACCESS our higher connection (sun) with the world. Kurt Cobain (tortured soul, amazing artist, addict, inspiring) his life was riddled with troubles, didn't have it easy when he "made" it, but you can easily tell that he was a Pisces from everything he went through... maybe following your sun means doing whatever god put you here to do...as harsh as it sounds not everyone is meant to be a happy, content , well to do family man, or a CEO, or a celebrity, even though we TELL ourselves we're supposed to be. Did Hitler follow his sun sign? Bruce Lee's chart seems like he was destined to be a famous Kung Fu legend with a 1st house Sun in Sag, trine pluto, he had a pretty good destiny. Was Charles Manson meant to be a killer? he loved music as well. Martin luther king was a capricorn but it seemed he acted out his Pisces moon more obviously. what if the moon was the true destiny...hmm..after all the sun is all about consciousness and fulfilling your OWN purpose, it rules Leo and leo isn't the most sacrificing or generous of signs, it's all about just having fun and feeling like a king...idk man the moon seems to always have more significance to it, it's the TRUE inner self. it rules your subconscious which is the natural you. maybe you could be a saint but have an afflicted or self serving sun (like being a rich businessman but when your by yourself you aren't happy with what you do for a living, and inside it truly kills you) or being a famous musician who seems to have everything but happiness or sense of self. so many artists seem to have it all but end up dying young, overdosing, getting in legal trouble, complaining about trust issues and no real friends, family problems, addiction issues because they have to always be up and vigor when they present themself to the media. and you look at there moon sign and all they want is security, love, and prosperity. that's all anybody really wants in this world, nothing external or material can make the subconscious, inner spirit content, because you aren't in a body with a soul, you are a soul in a body, crafted by the heavens, you will have problems no matter what and it seems the sun sign which is about ego and pride only fuels your desire for a more external driven life. someone can be a great performer but deep down have NO heart (emotion, or inner character) they are all logic and no intuition IP: Logged |
