Moon in Taurus

Stability, calm and the senses

The Moon in Taurus gives you a serene heart that craves security and pleasure. You need routine, contact with nature and tangible affection to feel safe.

Nurtures, protects and feels deeply

The Moon feels at home in Cancer, so here emotional life is intense and protective. You remember every feeling and bond strongly with your home and your people.

A warm, generous, radiant heart

Moon in Scorpio

Deep, intense and transformative

The Moon in Scorpio feels all or nothing, no half measures. You live emotions with abyssal intensity and total loyalty, though you guard your vulnerability behind armor.

Moon in Pisces

Empathic, dreamy and boundless

The Moon in Pisces absorbs the emotions of the world like a sponge. You're compassionate, intuitive and deeply romantic, able to feel what others can't even name. You need solitude, art or music to recharge and not lose yourself in others' pain. Your sensitivity is a gift: when you care for it, it becomes infinite creativity and tenderness.

What is a moon sign?

Your moon sign is the zodiac position the Moon occupied at the exact moment you were born. While the sun sign describes your identity and ego, the Moon rules your emotional world: how you feel, what you need to feel safe, and the way you react on instinct. It's one of the three most important pieces of your birth chart, alongside the Sun and the rising sign.

How is your Moon calculated?

The Moon is the fastest-moving body in the sky: it travels the twelve signs in about 27 days and changes sign every 2 to 3 days. That's why the date alone isn't enough and the birth time refines the result. Our calculator uses an astronomical algorithm based on Schlyter's lunar theory to estimate the Moon's ecliptic longitude and translate it into your moon sign in seconds.
