Mercury represents communications, thoughts and ideas.
How do you express your emotions? How would you describe your relationship with your mother (or with women in general)? How would you describe your childhood or your ideal home? And what do you need in order to feel secure? These are all functions of the astrological Moon. The sign your Moon is, as well as its house placement and the aspects it makes to other planets, will tell you a lot about how you manifest that energy. It’s the yin or Universal female energy, which is more unconscious and instinctual but just as important as (and sometimes even more important than) the Sun.
It describes your ability to express feelings and emotions, and also what you need in order to feel secure. It represents your past, your mother and your womb / birth experience as well as your childhood and early home life. In contrast to the Sun, the Moon represents feelings, emotions and security needs.
What area of your life does everything else revolve around? Where (and how) do you assert your own personal power? The sign that your Sun is in will you tell you how you manifest that energy and the house it’s in will tell you where you’re mostly likely to manifest it. It’s the yang or masculine principle, which is generally the face that you present to the outer world. The external expression of who and what you represent. It’s your light, your essence, your spirit and your Self. It’s how you “shine” and what everything else in your life revolves around.

In the coming weeks, we’ll look at signs and houses too, which from an astrological perspective can tell you a great deal about not only who you are, but where you came from and where you’re heading. They’re certainly as important (usually more important) than the other nine bodies. The Sun and Moon are referred to as luminaries in astrology and are treated as planets. Each of those planets is looked at in the context of the sign its placed in at birth, as well as its house position and relationships with other planets.īut for the purposes of this article, we’re going to be looking at only the planets (which also, for the purposes of this article, will include the Sun and Moon). But there’s so much more to astrology than Sun signs, just as there’s so much more to our solar system than the Sun.Īstrologers look at all of the planets - as well as the Sun and Moon - when interpreting a natal chart.
