What Is Your Moon Sign?
While your sun sign represents your core identity, your moon sign reveals your emotional inner world — how you feel, what you need for security, and your instinctive reactions.
Why the Moon Sign Matters
Your moon sign often explains why you feel differently from your sun sign suggests. For example, a confident Leo sun with a sensitive Cancer moon may appear tough on the outside but feel deeply vulnerable inside.

Moon Sign Compatibility
Moon sign compatibility is often more important for long-term relationships than sun sign compatibility:
- Same element moons: Natural emotional understanding
- Complementary elements: Earth+Water = nurturing, Fire+Air = energizing
- Opposing element moons: Can work but require more emotional effort
Your moon sign is the part of you that comes out when you're tired, stressed, or deeply in love. It's your emotional true north.
