The Sun and the Moon

The Sun signs and the different types of people it represents is of interest to most of us.

For a person like me who likes analyzing, I love trying to match people’s characteristics with their sun signs. There have however been instances when I have felt discrepancies and this includes certain traits of mine which I felt did not belong to a Virgo.

Being a Virgo, I tend to be a bit of a worrier .Disorderliness gets me irritated. Let’s not forget the part of the universal critic. I tend to criticize myself and also tend to see the flaws of others.

Then I came to know of the moon signs. Apparently the moon sign is the location of the moon on the zodiac sign at the time of your birth just like how the sun sign was the position of the sun on the zodiac at our birth time.

Most people will have their Moon in a Sign that is different from their Sun. This is why many people with the same Sun Sign can be so different from each other. They may feel that when they read a description of their Sign, that it is not representative of them. It may feel incomplete, or even completely inaccurate. Moon Signs may be a much more accurate description of what a person is like. And the moon sign it seems plays an important part to say what exactly we are from within- our inner personality. It explained a lot of things about me for example which weren’t falling in zync with the Virgo traits.

Having an Arien mother (Fire sign- Cardinal) and a Taurean Dad (Earth Sign – Fixed), it wasn’t surprising when my moon sign turned out to be Leo (Fire sign – Fixed). As I read more about it , I could relate myself with a lot of them characteristics- it baffled me and explained why sometimes I could feel the fire burn within me. I have mentioned two of them below.

‘They can be generous to a fault; in fact, it can become overwhelming to the recipient at times. They can't stand ingratitude, so if you are the one being showered with generosity, express your thanks.’ - ;)

‘Those born under the Moon Sign Leo do not take advice well, though they are happy to give it.’

‘Never ever must be castigated or criticized in public...to do so marks the certain kiss of death for the relationship…’

And yet many more.

As rightly mentioned, being a Virgo with a Leo moon often ends in lot of internal struggle. Virgo being mutable and Leo being fixed.

The worst part being if my inner pride gets hurt, the Leo moon roars but the outburst can be a shower of unimaginable sarcasm- the Virgo way .

I guess all of you should try reading your moon signs – it’s quite interesting ;)
