Leo The Lion

Leo: Moon Influences

The position of the Moon in a horoscope is second in importance only to the position of the Sun. In astrology, the Moon is indicative of personality, individuality and the unconscious. It represents instinctive reactions and the side of an individual that will respond to a given situation without prior thought or consideration. Based upon the theories of Sigmund Freud, it is the id, whereas the Sun sign of an individual is the ego.

In many respects, the Moon personality is one which a person keeps hidden and may even represent a nature considered to be somewhat disturbing, uncivilized, primitive or animalistic. In short, the Moon personality is an individual's inner core...the area which experiences hate and jealousy, is brooding and fearful and may indulge in fantasies that a person will deny even to himself or herself. Nonetheless, this Lunar influence is usually a somewhat subtle one, relating to a personality which is beneath the surface. It can also reveal much regarding the manner in which an individual was nurtured and cared for...as well as how he or she perceives his or her mother.

In a horoscope reading, the Moon modifies the Sun sign, bringing into play new forces, different motiviations and special elements to the character of an individual's Sun sign. The effect of a person's Moon sign can significantly decrease or increase the tone of a Sun sign. Since the Moon itself is feminine, its influence seems to affect females more strongly than it does males. In the man, the strength of the Moon influence tends to indicate senstivity more than any other facet of the personality. The Moon travels through all twelve Zodiac signs during every twenty-eight days.

Moon In Aries
The Aries Moon is an unstable and uncomfortable Moon, since Aries is a Fire Sign and the Moon rules Cancer, a Water Sign. This is a gregarious, generous and optimistic Moon, where opinions are decisive and forceful. The Aries Moon is also a high-strung and controlling Moon, as well as being spontaneous, energetic, friendly and honest. It suggests an aggressive attitude, quick temper, impulsiveness and brutally forthright behavior...the tendency to act through emotion rather than reason. The attitude of the Aries Moon is restless and risk-taking.

In general, those with the Moon in Aries are likely to be spontaneous and excitable. Such individuals are also militantly hostile in their expression of anger and maybe be prone to periods of irritability. These are self-reliant characters who want to have everything their own way, refusing to be pushed around by anybody. Those with the Moon in Aries are self-disciplined and balk against any who would impose discipline upon them. These characters are usually either intensely liked or disliked by others due to their impulsive behavior. Moon in Aries individuals like to take charge and will probably rise to positions of authority in their chosen careers. Being natural leaders, they set the pace and terms for themselves and will likely chose their own vocations, regardless of any advice offered by friends and relatives. The relationship between an individual born with the Moon in Aries and his or her parents may be a difficult one since there is a distinct lack of both sympathy and communication. The actions of these individuals are perceived by others to be impulsive and unexpected. The Moon in Aries is a good sign for those who enjoy originality, adventure, independence and a military life. Such persons may be attracted to studies in the occult or mysticism and possess a great desire to harbor secrets. Impatient, with the need to act immediately and consider the consequences at a later date, those with the Moon in Aries find it difficult to understand opposing viewpoints. These are quick-thinking characters with a love of the instantaneous and a tendecy to become bored with minor practical details. Straight-forward in nature, the Moon in Aries person is very much a "what you see in what you get" type of individual with a wonderfully warm heart most of the time and a desire to comfort those in need of solace.

These persons may display exceptional courage because there is little they fear and few challenges they will be hesitant to undertake. There is a tendency for these individuals to throw themselves into every project with total commitment. However, this combination does make for a quick temper and people who are easily excited into action. Any setback or loss is considered to be a very serious matter which must be responded to immediately and positively. When the honor of these individuals is questioned...even in the slightest fashion...they are swift to respond defensively. Indeed, combativeness is almost overpowering in the nature of any Leo Sun/Aries Moon native and every problem is dealt with as though it were a direct attack. In personal relationships and in the everyday world, these individuals come across as executive-type characters. Dynamic and willing to pursue any possibility to further enhance image and self-confidence, Leo Sun/Aries Moon subjects go after what they desire with much enthusiasm and intensity. These may be rash and impulsive souls, but ones which remain willing to give almost any idea a good try. Never hesitant or shirking, this combination produces individuals who will assume responsibility and meet obligations. The only fear here is usually directed toward those who are deemed to be intellectually superior since the Leo Sun/Aries Moon native does not consider himself or herself to be particularly brilliant. Nevertheless, this shortcoming is seldom noticed by others as there is an inherence talent for appearing in complete control, coupled with an air of personal superiority in all situations. A quick common-sense mind is the special gift of these individuals and, when fully-devloped, will ensure that the Leo Sun/Aries Moon subject remains in the "driver's seat."

Moon In Taurus
The Taurus Moon is a positive and practical Moon. This Moon possesses a sharp artistic sense but is deliberate in reaching decisions.

Totally lacking in impulsive behavior, such individuals strive for success in a conservative manner and by investing much hard work into the process. Nevertheless, those with the Moon in Taurus tend to attract good company and usually end up with more than their fair share of wealth. In fact, no matter what type of work these individuals undertake, they will usually receive a financial reward in the end...even if the vocation is not considered by others to be worthy of the individual's abilities or standing in the community. Neither of which usually bothers those governed by the Moon in Taurus, whose occupation is often surrounded by something of an aura of mystery in any event.

The Leo Sun/Taurus Moon combination produces a very strong and forceful personality...for better or worse. These persons possess the capacity to see things "in the large," with a good deal of practical idealism and an extremely fixed attitude, which can make for much success in business undertakings that require foresight and executive ability. Others will never have cause to wonder where Leo Sun/Taurus Moon natives stand on a particular issue and, although they are prone to make errors in judgment, they are equally as emphatic when they are wrong as when they are right. In short, this combination often makes for stubborn souls who lack an innate diplomacy.

Moon In Gemini
The Gemini Moon is an intuitive Moon...a rapid learner operating on a mental plane. This is a rather charming Moon with magnificent speaking and writing talents. This Moon struggles to maintain independence and tends to be high-strung...at times, a restless and somewhat confusing combination. However, the swift mental activity of the inherent Gemini character coupled with the emotionality of the Moon causes feelings to be held in too much scrutiny. The Gemini Moon expresses emotions in an uneven and inconsistent manner while harboring a direct need to speak the truth.

In general, those with the Moon in Gemini like to exercise both body and mind. Their time is usually divided between studying and socializing. They may live in more than one place or change residence quite often. In short, these individuals like to move around. The Moon in Gemini is excellent in terms of intellect and those who fall under its jurisdiction are inevitably attracted to the literary and the scientific, which tends to indicate that the chosen vocation will also be somewhat intellectual...writer, teacher, journalist or scientist, etc. However, the influence of Gemini usually leads to the changing of careers as often as it leads to the changing of residence. Gemini's theme will continue through the life of this individual...he or she may be ambidextrous and will probably find it easy to do two things at once. Those with their Moon sign in Gemini are not always honest people, particularly in their dealings with those around them. However, they are usually so proficient at deception, that others rarely realize they have been hoodwinked. Moon in Gemini people tend to be nervous, witty and changeable, thriving on communication and the "cut and thrust" of the social world. Boredom cannot be tolerated by these persons and there is a proclavity for an "up and down" type of personality. The spoken word is the chief means of relating for those who fall under the jurisdiction of this Moon sign, and they are equally adept at coming up with the perfect "put-down" as they are with impressing others through their cleverness and wit. Working in media or travel are ideal for those with the Moon in Gemini, as are careers in sales. However, there is a proclavity for these individuals to push themselves too hard and they often feel exhausted when they have overdone the "partying." Nevertheless, after a brief respite, they are ready to forge headlong into the world once more. A person born with the Moon in Gemini is not likely to be happy with his or her own company for very long.

The Leo Sun/Gemini Moon combination produces a character possessed of both action and ideas. This particular configuration blends the vitality, personal warmth, generosity and authoritative nature inherent in Leo, with the intelligence, cleverness, flexibility and adaptability inherent in Gemini. The personality of these individuals is one which is perpetually seeking for ways to impress others via action or achievement...particularly by matters of the mind or personal ideas. The mind of a Leo Sun/Gemini Moon native is facile and intuitive rather than profound or overly-serious. There is an innate ability here for making good impressions on others...this works extremely well in public life and in dealing with those who fall within the personal sphere of influence. Although ideas will not be based on deep philosophy, they are usually quite plausible and always delivered with a manner of expression which is persuasive. Leo Sun/Gemini Moon subjects like to work with their minds and are rarely to be found working hard in a physical sense in order to making a living. Indeed, these are characters who believe in "easy money" and appear to know how to obtain it without exerting great amounts of physical energy. Mentally, however, this Sun/Moon combination could never be regarded as lazy and, at times, can become so mentally active that the result is nothing short of a "bundle of nerves." These individuals truly never stop trying to impress others with their cache of personal knowledge and are very interesting conversationalists. The Leo subject governed by a Gemini Moon is an extremely social soul and loves to entertain...especially when the guests are interesting people who can provide mental stimulation. In turn, glib analyses and sharp observations will make this individual a firm favorite among such gatherings.

This Moon is likely to have heightened psychic abilities, although life itself is lived within a series of mood swings. The Cancer Moon is prone to the expression of insecurities in a smothering, possessive and/or jealous manner.

In general, the personality of those whose Moon sign is in Cancer will be very similar to those individuals whose Moon sign is in Taurus. Both combinations are very fond of relaxation and satisfaction. However, those individuals with Cancer as their Moon sign are different in that they lack the stability and/or stubborn character provided by Taurus (unless, of course, the person in question happens to have Taurus as his or her Sun sign). The personality of the Moon in Cancer subject is rather supple and flexible. This will be an emotional character whose surroundings play a large role in his or her mood. When individuals with the Moon in Cancer are at home, or some other comfortable place, they can be quite sociable, friendly and charitable. However, when the environment proves to be less comforting, they tend to hide themselves. Basically inherently conservative, those whose Moon sign is in Cancer tend to be very close to their families...in particular, the mother. Here, there may well be a strong attachment and very often, both mother and child will share many personality traits. Generally, accepting advice from others and following through on the plans of others will bring good luck to the Moon in Cancer person. These are people perceptive of the feelings of those around them and they frequently prove to be good actors or mimics. Blessed with an inherent sensitivity, the Moon in Taurus subject is often psychic. These individuals are strongly attracted to water (although they are not always aware of this) and may live or vacation near large bodies of water. They are also likely to favor travel by ship as the preferred mode of transport. Basically sympathetic, kind and compassionate souls, individuals whose Moon sign is Cancer are drawn to the underdog and the downtrodden of society...a hard luck story will win them over every time. There is a tendency for those governed by the Moon sign of Cancer to expect others to see and feel they world as they do. This often leads to feelings of rejection when such is not the case. Those governed by Cancer as their Moon sign are likely to keep mementos of their lives from the first four-leaf clover they found to the dog-eared photograph of their first love...probably all tied up with a pink ribbon.

This makes for a person possessed of a natural warmth and one who will be a sympathetic friend. Others are naturally attracted to Leo Sun/Cancer Moon natives because they are such excellent company and enjoy having a good time. In addition, friends will never hesitate to confide in these natives due to their dependability and trustworthiness.

Moon In Leo
The Leo Moon is an intelligent and strongly emotional Moon. This Moon marches to the beat of its own drummer and relishes being the center of attention. The Leo Moon is an exceedingly charming Moon with an exceptional sense of humor. It is a leader, not a follower. However, this Moon possesses a dramatic flair and tends to take itself too seriously.

The Leo Sun/Leo Moon combination produces a forceful, ambitious and concentrative personality...one which is bent on achieving a good deal of prestige and success in the world. On the surface, these persons appear jovial, sunny, full of vitality and always expressing good spirits. However, beneath this facade, there often lurks a hard streak in the nature...a degree of ruthlessness which never forgets or forgives any injury or slight to the innate pride and/or vanity. Somehow, Leo Sun/Leo Moon natives can be jovial, sunny and friendly while remaining so independent and authorative that they seek nothing less than the ultimate in leadership and prominence. Nevertheless, there is someting magnificent about the methods of fighting associated with this combination...whether the battle be personal or on behalf of others. There is a scorn for enemies here that enables the Leo subject governed by a Leo Moon to demolish such enemies ruthlessly, but the action will be devoid of any malice. In short, there is a detached and impersonal quality marking the nature of this combination. These individuals are not inherently introspective and many of their actions are based upon instincts rather than analyzed personal motive. They also have tremendous personal control...a control which, given time, will likely be exerted over others.

There will always be a constant tendency toward the excessive in a variety of ways.

However, people who fall under the jurisdication of a Virgo Moon do like to investigate the problems of others and their intellect is quite beneficial in this area.

The Leon Sun/Virgo Moon combination produces a character pairing of two very different influences. Here, the warm, impetuous and dynamic traits associated with Leo are coupled with the cool, cautious and introverted traits of Virgo, resulting in an individual possessed of very strong opinions and emotions. Leo Sun/Virgo Moon natives are critical and accurate in thought, but often too outspoken. Attention is vital to the happiness of this combination. Leo natives governed by a Virgo Moon appear to be dependent upon praise and the admiring attention they are able to command...even if such attention is nothing more than sympathetic concern which can be mustered. Nevertheless, they are selective when it comes to friends and allow relatively few people to become close. To Leo Sun/Virgo Moon subjects, there is only "their way" and the "wrong way." In short, these are individuals who can be exceedingly stubborn and opinionated. They follow a personal and strict moral code, to which they consistently adhere, and expect those around them to also live up to such standards. Although there is an underlying timidity in the nature of this Sun/Moon combination, coupled with an always-present need to please, the independent and somewhat militant pride often impels, for some reason, the need to do the wrong thing out of an impish delight in observing the effect which then results. As Leo Sun/Virgo Moon individuals mature, they can teach themselves to beome tactful, but this is far from a natural trait. However, they do possess an inherent politeness and charm, which can be turned-on at will and, if used to its best advantage, can lead to great success in almost every endeavor. Nonetheless, these natives tend to have an exacting nature and a pride which must constantly be carefully controlled.

Moon In Libra
The Libra Moon is the most artistic of the Moons. This Moon will do anything in order to avoid a conflict (and, in fact, all general unpleasantness), but needs to learn how to handle such conflicts and be aware that facing a problem head-on in the best method of dealing with it. The Libra Moon possesses exquisite taste and is a coordinating expert. This is a charming Moon with a gentle and peace-loving nature which desires a harmonious environment in beautiful surroundings. This Moon finds crude behavior, poor manners and foul language exceedingly offensive. The Libra Moon prefers shared rather than solitary experiences.

In general, the personality of those whose Moon sign is in Libra produces an individual who likes to make friends. These are very sociable souls who are attracted to people and situations that present a sense of balance. Those governed by the Libra Moon look for partnerships in all aspects of life...love, business and friendships. As perceived by others, those governed by the Moon in Libra are considered to be popular, affectionate and generous. In short, the life of the Libra Moon individual will likely revolve around people. Most often, this means only one person...one with a powerful persuasion over the life of the Libra Moon subject. Here, the inherent love of people, company and sociality can blind those ruled by the Libra Moon to the effects of others' influence, and personal judgment can easily be swayed by those around them. There is usually artistic potential, whether or not the Libra Moon person has explored it, and this explains the love of music, paintings and fine arts in general so often associated with Libra Moon individuals. Such persons have a good fashion sense coupled with a harmonious outlook on life...partnerships and balance are invariably the key themes. Libra Moon people are usually influenced by those around them and are much more productive in the company of others. Being both charming and creative, those governed by the Moon in Libra possess excellent diplomatic skills, but the ability to see both sides can sometimes lead to a "sitting on the fence" attitude. Nonetheless, such a person has the ability to be a wonderful peacemaker when others are locked in a dispute and findings are normally beautifully articulated. The Moon in Libra indicates a great love for taking on new projects, but a tendency toward boredom once the initial excitement begins to wear thin.

The Leo Sun/Libra Moon combination produces a very independent, idealistic and romantic character. These are warm-hearted souls with an almost sentimental approach to life. They are highly honorable and possess a sense of personal integrity. Being both conventional and traditional, Leo natives governed by a Libra Moon also have a tolerant and logical approach to life with a healthy respect for public opinion. Although basically straightforward by nature, there is much that these individuals do not reveal about themselves in a first meeting. In short, they are somewhat elusive and rather difficult to "pin down." Leo Sun/Libra Moon natives may know what people want of them, but their usual method is to give a good deal of thought into their actions and not necessarily commit too soon. However, others customarily have an immense respect for the opinion of these individuals, since such an opinion is generally not the first one rendered and is normally well thought out...to say nothing of being solidly founded. Not one to go overboard or fall prey to any type of extremes, this Sun/Moon combination has the capacity for clear and methodical thinking, which is frequently coupled with a gift for creativity and blessed with an excellent imagination. Art and drama often appeal to Leo Sun/Libra Moon subjects since there is much which is dramatic and appealing in the character make-up. These are souls who can live almost independently and the emotional depth necessary for successful relationships can be somewhat lacking at times. Indeed, complex emotionalism can occasionally cause Leo natives governed by a Libra Moon to retreat and become rather aloof. In sum, these will be individuals who are avid observers of human nature, but not ones who wish to become too deeply involved.

Moon In Scorpio
The Scorpio Moon is a mysterious Moon. This Moon is strongly motivated by feelings while remaining most adept at hiding true emotions. It is a Moon of great willpower and good judgment, but one which never forgets a good or bad deed. The Scorpio Moon is one of the more difficult Moons, often having to face and conquer more obstacles than the other Moons. It is prone to aggressive and dominating behavior in addition to being wilful and stubborn. The Scorpio Moon possesses strong beliefs which will likely be expressed in a passionate manner. This Moon is one of secrecy and personal independence coupled with heightened intuitive and psychic abilities. However, the Scorpio Moon can be jealous and distrustful, believing that the sharing of feelings leads to vulnerability.

In general, the personality of those whose Moon sign is in Scorpio may be one which harbors a feeling of misunderstanding by others. Fighters by nature, those ruled by the Scorpio Moon are usually hot-tempered and stand alone in their battles. They fight with assurance and confidence. However, there is a tendency for such people to bring out in themselves the very things they are fighting against. Persons governed by the Moon in Scorpio will be full of energy with a tendency to express themselves in a rather blunt manner. While such individuals might declare they are "okay with change," it is a somewhat different story inside and they are actually quite conservative, resisting change...particuarly any change which is forced upon them. When such people do change their minds on an idea, they fully stand behind it and help to implement the change. In reality, Scorpio is probably one of the most misunderstood of the Zodiac signs and individuals who fall under the jurisdiction of its Moon are inclined to act out of irritation or anger. In short, these people like to get revenge. Others may perceive those ruled by the Scorpio Moon as lacking in a strong moral code, or that they drink too much, but the truth is, such individuals are truly possessed of a strong willpower and much determination. However, there is also a massive love of pleasure and those governed by this particular Moon will be quite familiar with the subject of pleasure. There is a strong attraction to the opposite sex...and vice versa. Those governed by the Scorpio Moon share many of the characteristics of those ruled by the Moon of Capricorn. Both subjects have boundless energy, a lack of control in certain life areas and oftentimes, trouble with the opposite sex. This could cause a great deal of strife throughout life and more than one marriage is highly likely. The Moon in Scorpio is also closely related to death and the occupation of an individual ruled in this manner might well be so related...policeman, fireman or soldier, for example. Passion and intensity will be paramount in any relationship which involves those who fall under the jursiction of the Scorpio Moon. There is also an ability to inspire others here, for such subjects will never shirk in the face of unpleasant situations and are perfectly capable of speaking up for the underdog. Individuals of the Scorpio Moon know no fear and will refuse to be put off by the views of society when it comes to choosing friends or partners. However, there is a distinct tendency to keep many emotions "under wraps" and others may be unaware of this individual's true feelings until he or she "lets rip" at the last straw. Time alone is very important for those ruled by the Moon in Scorpio...it is necessary in order to process feelings and come to terms with some of the injustices of the world. These are people with a strong moral conscience who, when hit by tragedy, will survive to return again...scarred, but ready to face life. The strong intuitive powers and psychic abilities of Scorpio Moon individuals enable them to see below the surface.

The Leo Sun/Scorpio Moon combination produces a vital character possessed of a highly-charged temperament. In order to achieve the lofty potential offered by this configuration...which is indeed exceedingly dynamic and powerful...these persons will need to learn how to control both passion and temper. Leo natives governed by a Scorpio Moon have a tendency, by nature, to become very emotionally and personally involved in problems or debates. In fact, it would be something of an understatement to say that the likes and dislikes of such individuals are extremely well-defined. Occasionally, a bout of "ranting and raving" can easily result if there is a failure to maintain a "tight lid" on natural inclinations...yet, personal success and happiness may well depend on keeping full control over such emotions and feelings. In short, it is necessary for Leo Sun/Scorpio Moon subjects to direct their energies along constructive lines. There is an inherent magnetism here which will invariably lead to much achievement in the area of leadership. However, there is likely to be far more emotionalism than mental depth in the character make-up. Leo natives ruled by a Scorpio Moon possess an intensely confident and positive nature, often revealing considerable pride and self-regard. They do not appear to rely on logic, intuition or reason but, instead, react on pure instinct. High in moral attitudes, these persons "draw the line" on others quickly and judge those around them far too readily based upon personally stated standards...which these individuals may not always live up to themselves. In sum, everything is colored by personal biases and there is little capacity for objectivity or detachment. This combination of Zodiac signs makes for an extremely driving placement, bent on obtaining power and authority and very capable of fulfilling such objectives. Leo Sun/Scorpio Moon natives are keenly alert to personal interests in business or executive affairs, as well as being aggressive, vigilant and determined. They act quickly upon ideas and without hesitation. These are determined and shrewd individuals who are essentially dramatic...ones who are the main characters in any given drama, themselves occupying center stage.

Moon In Sagittarius
The Sagittarius Moon is a clear-thinking and quick-minded Moon. This Moon will set goals and have no problem in attaining them. However, there is a tendency to overspend because of the overwhelming belief that things are there to be bought and enjoyed. Basically, this is a charming Moon with a deep love of travel. It is also spontaneous, freedom-loving and optimistic. The Satittarius Moon prefers not to be tied down and, by nature, is a kind and gentle Moon. This Moon has a deep desire to learn and pursue intellectual activities.

In general, the personality of those whose Moon sign is in Sagittarius will absolutely adore the great outdoors. There is an immense love for the feeling of freedom here. Others perceive Sagittarius Moon indidividuals as active with a fondness for travel and sports...not to mention the air of joviality (derived from Jove or Jupiter, the Ruling Planet of Sagittarius). However, when such individuals are not outside, they often appear restless in every sense of the word...physically, mentally, intellectually and emotionally. These are people who act first and think later, a trait which is usually most apparent..and harmful...during conversation. Such individuals say whatever is on their minds, put simply and in a rather blunt manner. In short, they are far from diplomatic and should avoid careers where diplomacy is a must. Indeed, with regard to occupations as a whole, there is a tendency to change employment frequently or have more than one vocation. Overall, Sagittarius Moon persons are usually good-natured, kind and honest. They are perceptive of others' emotions and, if someone is hurt, may even take it personally. Nevertheless, there is an obvious short temper associated with those governed by this Moon although, on a more positive note, they are also quick to forgive and will hardly ever hold a grudge. These individuals make for good teachers due to their perspective on life and are able to perceive the possible outcome of events long before they ever occur...hence the oftentimes favorite phrase of those who are ruled by the Sagittarius Moon: "I told you so!" The intuition here is strong and the dreams of such people frequently come true. This could possibly indicate a psychic influence, but with the Sagittarius Moon, nothing is ever sure. These people are simply unable to stay in one place for very long since the desire for movement is well-nigh overwhelming. Independence is greatly valued by Sagittarius Moon persons, as is freedom of spirit. They are adaptable and attract many friends who warm instantly to the inherent gregarious nature. Not necessarily materialistic, the Sagittarius Moon subject feels that experience will always count for more than the acquisition of objects. There is a firm belief in justice and fair play here, coupled with a desire to help out anyone who is in need, or who has been treated unfairly. Perhaps the worse fault of those ruled by the Sagittarius Moon is that of over-optimism and it will be necessary to learn a realistic approach through experience and the lessons of life.

The Leo Sun/Sagittarius Moon combination produces a character which harbors a constant passion for travel, adventure, change and excitement. These are persons who search continuously for another "mountain to climb" or another "stone to turn," and to whom life itself seems to be a never-ending chain of games to win and adventures to explore. In this Sun/Moon combination, the vitality, magnanimity, warmth and authoritive nature of Leo blends with the honesty, versatility, sincerity and direct nature of Sagittarius, resulting in a yielding, exceedingly optimistic and intensely enthusiastic temperament. Leo natives governed by a Sagittarius Moon possess a restless, but always positive and alert mind. Their challenge is to keep the "white-hot flames" of this dual fire combination ablaze, attempting to avoid the tendency for energies to "go up in smoke" and be wasted upon lively yet unproductive activities. These individuals are more subject than most to experience burn-out. However, by harnessing the inherent fiery emotional nature to constructive purposes and setting personal goals, there is little that they cannot accomplish. Leo Sun/Sagittarius Moon subjects are able to charm others with their dash and enthusiasm. Their boundless energy and imaginative talents assure they have the ability to go far...if they can only channel their efforts and remain true to personal goals. However, it is difficult for these individuals to settle down to a job or to a relationship or to a solid base of operation or even to a truly focused purpose of any kind. Pettiness and triteness infuriate Leo natives ruled by a Sagittarius Moon and subtlety is definitely not their style. They may get into trouble by saying precisely what they feel, but refuse to mince words or spare feelings. While subjects of this Sun/Moon combination remain mobile and independent, they will be happy...but when they begin to experience confinement or any sense of being harnessed, they can easily become very unhappy and dispirited.

Moon In Capricorn
The Capricorn Moon is an unemotional Moon, rarely exhibiting feelings in an outward manner. This is not really surprising, given that Capricorn sits in direct opposition to the Moon. Since the Moon itself is representative of emotions, this causes hindrances to the achievement of happiness within the Capricorn Moon. Thus, this is a difficult Moon placement as inherent energies are in conflict. Nonetheless, the Capricorn Moon is ambitious and eager to learn, usually putting such knowledge to excellent use. This is a self-sufficient Moon which has difficulty in expressing spontaneous emotions. It is conservative, competitive and rigid regarding feelings. This Moon desires control...ambitious thoughts being the driving force...and material success is extrememly important. The Capricorn Moon invariably displays a cool exterior and is very difficult to predict.

In general, the personality of those whose Moon sign is in Capricorn were born to be in a position of authority. This comes naturally to such people and could bring either fame or notoriety. Either way, a certain amount of celebrity is almost certainly guaranteed for those governed by a Capricorn Moon. If such individuals focus on their ambitions, employing dedication and a strong work ethic, then the public eye will eventually come to view them as prominent and well-respected. However, the influence of the Capricorn Moon is apt to make a person somewhat insensitive and unperceptive of the feelings of others, which can be viewed as cold and calculating. If the subject is born under one of the Cardinal signs (i.e., Aries, Cancer, Libra or Capricorn), then future success is virtually assured but, with fame and success comes enemies, one of whom is almost certain to appear and attempt to spoil any such success or personal reputation...be it openly or in secret. The good news is that this person will most likely fail. Those governed by the Capricorn Moon share many of the characteristics of those ruled by the Moon of Scorpio. Both subjects have boundless energy, a lack of control in certain life areas and oftentimes, trouble with the opposite sex. Capricorn Moon people tend to assert a strong influence over those around them. They know how to "put on a good show" and will do anything to accomplish desired goals. These individuals are indeed "movers and shakers." There is an earthy practicality to persons ruled by the Capricorn Moon which gives dependence and a sense of responsbility toward others. These people are enduring, brave and do not shrink from less-than-pleasant tasks, if a sense of duty is perceived. There may be a tendency toward shyness in some individuals in which case, they are apt to be reserved and not given to spontaneous outbursts of emotion. In later years, those ruled by the Moon of Capricorn will appears both cool and well in control...life stretching ahead in a series of planned events and expectations. This Moon can lend a sense of loyalty and unswerving devotion once its subject eventually gives his or her heart to another and such an individual can be counted upon to "stick around" when all others have long gone. These persons fear humiliation and will carry around a hurt or slight almost indefinitely. There is a dignity and tenacity here, coupled with a realistic vision of the world as it truly is...not as others expect it to be.

The Leo Sun/Capricorn Moon combination produces a highly purposeful character. These people have a strong sense of what is personally expected out of life and this Sun/Moon combination confers a good deal of mental ability and quickness. There is a hard inner core here which may keep these individuals from being as sociable as many others who fall under the jurisiction of Leo as their sun sign. Indeed, it is unlikely that Leo natives ruled by a Capricorn Moon will ever allow themselves to be "walked upon" by others. The reputation of these persons...and the impression made upon those around them...is vitally important on a very personal level. In fact, they will make every effort to create a good impression by virtue of appearance and demeanor. In this regard, Leo Sun/Capricorn Moon subjects normally display a cheerful and good-natured exterior which rarely exposes the inherent core of hardness and resolve. While not exactly secretive, these individuals are subtle in disclosing plans and objectives and truly harbor no great desire to be understood too well. They may become depressed on occasion, but will never admit that there could be any doubt about themselves or their abilities. In short, the public face of a Leo native ruled by a Capricorn Moon seldom breaks free from the upbeat mask. These are individuals who possess an immense self-respect and expect others to treat them with equal respect. Success to these persons depends heavily on building up a sound reputation for integrity and reliability...they want to be known as infinitely trustworthy. These are materially ambitious souls...ones who back-up such ambition with steady purpose and tremendous power of will.

Moon In Aquarius
The Aquarius Moon is an even-tempered Moon, possessing a clear and intelligent logic. Aquarius is an excellent location for the Moon itself. This Moon is humorous but harbors a distinct dislike for restriction in any form, being unable to tolerate possessiveness. The Aquarius Moon is a somewhat detached and intriguing Moon, which has trouble expressing emotions and extensively analyzing any such emotions. Indeed, emotions are usually expressed in actions rather than words. Friendship and freedom are paramount to this Moon. By nature, the Aquarius Moon prefers to work with a group and will relate better to a group rather than in a one-on-one relationship.

In general, the personality of those whose Moon sign is in Aquarius will be cool, perceptive and imaginative, enjoying the opinions that friends and colleagues have to offer. Moon in Aquarius individuals are social creatures, sympathetic to the feelings of others. In short, their attitude is far from what would be considered the "norm." These people are prone to unorthodox, independent and unconventional tendencies. Indeed, their eccentric interests and hobbies are likely to draw strange looks from observers. Those governed by an Aquarius Moon are attracted to anything which is of an intellectual, social, original or unusual nature. The vocation of such an individual may include educational, political, scientific or social work...at heart, he or she is a true humanitarian. There is a strong inclination toward ideals here...ideals which may well be impractical. These persons are drawn to large movements which support great causes and may also belong to a mystical or secret society, brotherhood or association. The intellect and imagination of those ruled by an Aquarius Moon combine to provide inventive and original ideas, together with an attraction for occult subjects (astrology or clairvoyance, for example). As already stated, those who fall under the jurisdiction of the Aquarius Moon are real humanitarians and true liberals who get along well with those who think the same. Although there is a great desire here to care for the "global village," there may be some detachment when it comes to those closer to home. These individuals possess integrity and honesty and will rarely be accused of double-dealing or cheating. With a tendency to "tell it like it is" (because the truth matters regardless of cost, even though the truth may hurt), persons governed by the Aquarius Moon possess their own set of moral standards which may or may not conincide with those of society. Friends and acquaintances tend to come from a rather broad spectrum...a homeless down-and-out together with a member of the aristrocracy would not be unlikely personal companions for those governed by the Aquarius Moon. Although unlikely to ask for help when in trouble, these persons stand ready to help others in an instant, particularly if it is associated with a cause dear to the heart. With more than a casual eye on the future, those people who fall under the jurisdiction of the Aquarius Moon would not hesitate to break rules and/or boundaries in their quest for new ways of being.

The Leon Sun/Aquarius Moon combination produces an interesting character blessed with a personality which is extremely attractive to others. This configuration blends the vitality, warmth, generosity, magnanimity and pride inherent in Leo, with the originality, ingenuity and friendliness inherent in Aquarius. Whatever these persons undertake is usually met with popular support for they are highly social souls who are both likeable and extroverted. There is a natural desire for Leo natives governed by an Aquarius Moon to project their personalities into public affairs or activities of a creative nature. They are exceedingly philosophical individuals, inclined to mental expansion and creativity, but may not be as much purposeful as they are idealistic and romantic. With regard to the many subjects which will attract the interest of these persons, there will be a sense of sincerity...but not one which is deeply involved and/or committed. There is a tendency here to "skim the surface" and drift from one idea to the next...never attaining much more than the most superficial understanding of anything. Leo Sun/Aquarius Moon natives dislike becoming too involved because their interests are so varied. Thus, they are reluctant to remain focused on one idea or one type of person for long. Indeed, such romanticism and idealism seems to out-distance any form of ambition and committment in these individuals. Nevertheless, they do like knowing a "little something" about many different things and usually get along well in life with this gift.

Moon In Pisces
The Pisces Moon is a senstive and creative Moon, being artistic, intuitive and most probably psychic. This Moon is most assuredly a dreamer. The Pisces Moon keeps emotions hidden, although the inherent extreme sensitivity makes this Moon sympathetic to the plight of the less fortunate and may lead to community service. The Pisces Moon feels all things deeply.

In general, the personality of those whose Moon sign is in Pisces indicates a character driven by emotions. Whatever appeals to these persons will attract them...music, literature or poetry, for example. These are individuals who change their minds very easily and to others, will sometimes give the impression of unreliability. When the "going gets tough," those ruled by a Pisces Moon will become discouraged. They adore change and any form of routine seems to literally drain the life from these persons. There is an easygoing nature here, but there is also a tendency toward shyness. Overall, the Pisces Moon is not perceived to be a favorable influence, often associated with glandular problems and obesity. On the outside, those governed by this Moon appear to be quite happy, but inwardly there is frequently depression and even a distinct lack of a sense of humor. At some time during the life of those who fall under the jurisdiction of the Moon in Pisces, hospitals, prisons or some other type of institution is almost certain to play an important role in some fashion. However, this aspect needs to be put into context and perspective with the rest of the individual's horoscope before any definite conclusions may be drawn, and it is vital that these subjects not become discouraged. The Pisces Moon can be one of the most appealing, sociable, entertaining and humorous of all the Moon Influences dependent upon other factors. There is a flair for music here...either composing, writing or simply listening and appreciating the art. These are emotional and romantic souls with creative ideas, a strong imagination and a desire to make the world a better place, although there is a distinct distaste for anything which is ugly or disharmonious. Perhaps the major key word for the Pisces Moon individual is sacrifice. If the need of another is perceived to be greater than that of the person governed by this Moon, then he or she will willingly give all he or she has to the person in need. These people possess a strong psychic awareness and have the ability to pick up on subtle signs and signals that others might miss. The greatest danger for a person who falls under the jurisdiction of the Moon in Pisces is the tendency to become a martyr and allow personal needs to fade into insignificance. Boundaries are difficult to define by these individuals and they could easily be guilty of getting involved in the problems of others without being asked...although the intentions are always of the highest caliber.

The Leo Sun/Pisces Moon combination brings together influences of extremely different natures. Here, the confident majesty of Leo and the more regressive, fluctuating and variable traits inherent in Pisces blend to produce what is usually a very kind-hearted and likeable personality. These souls are genuine in their attempts to make those close to them feel happy and secure. Attuned and very aware, Leo natives governed by a Pisces Moon have the time and possess the necessary sympathy to listen to others and try to help. Being both emotional and sentimental, the advice and counsel of these individuals comes directly from the heart and it is truly difficult for them to remain cool and aloof. It is also hard for them to say "No" to almost any sincere request...a fact which can often prove to be both physically and emotionally draining. The make-up of Leo Sun/Pisces Moon subjects includes intuition to a large degree and they are well aware of their abilities, as well as making every attempt to live up to personal ideals of a high order.

Inwardly, however, they are invariably overly-sensitive and sentimental...even brooding and philosophic in some cases. Subject to deep thought and occasional fits of depression, Leo Sun/Pisces Moon natives need many true friends and companions in order for spirits to remain buoyant. In short, these are very serious individuals whose motives are usually of the highest caliber.
