Moon in Astrology – Meaning Explained (YouTube Video Transcript)

(00:00:00) Your YouTube transcript will appear here (00:00:00) all right so the moon today we're in (00:00:02) this series of planets yesterday we (00:00:04) talked about the sun which is the (00:00:07) outside extroverted outside focused (00:00:10) aspect of the self and today we're going (00:00:12) to talk about the moon which is equally (00:00:14) as important and in fact very much (00:00:17) opposite that sun energy so if you look (00:00:20) up at the sky you've got two bodies the (00:00:22) largest bodies in the sky the Sun and (00:00:23) the Moon both very important aspects of (00:00:25) the self where the sun is the (00:00:27) extroverted uh outer awareness you've (00:00:30) got the Moon which is the receptive (00:00:32) inner (00:00:34) awareness so this is uh all about (00:00:37) emotion you know if you look at the Moon (00:00:39) there's two notable characteristics and (00:00:41) I'm sure a whole lot more if you uh (00:00:44) analyze it but the moon for one is (00:00:46) always variable right she's always (00:00:48) changing she might be a new moon one day (00:00:50) then a few days later she'll be a first (00:00:51) quarter moon or then maybe a full moon (00:00:54) and she controls the tides on the earth (00:00:57) so she's very much linked with water she (00:00:59) literally controls controls the water (00:01:01) retention of the earth and of ourselves (00:01:03) physiologically so every 29 days we're (00:01:05) going through this cycle with the moon (00:01:08) so that's essentially what she (00:01:09) symbolizes is the water energy and (00:01:11) that's a very good way of looking at it (00:01:13) so where the sun's fire it's passion (00:01:15) it's Focus it's intent the Moon is (00:01:17) receptive it's nurturing it's acceptance (00:01:20) It's emotional it's Comfort it is (00:01:24) security emotional security or emotional (00:01:26) insecurity because it's always changing (00:01:29) and often times too it's the thinking (00:01:31) patterns but not so much thinking like (00:01:33) rational thought like Mercury but (00:01:36) emotional thinking what are we normally (00:01:38) concerned with so if you think of the (00:01:40) sun outside Focus you've got the moon (00:01:43) which is in inside internal (00:01:46) concern so you can look at the house (00:01:48) placement the sign placement of the Moon (00:01:50) and get the you know sort of feminine or (00:01:53) internal personality of the individual (00:01:56) if for example you've got uh the moon in (00:01:59) the second house second house is about (00:02:01) the material aspects of Life uh Moon (00:02:03) here would be someone who's concerned (00:02:05) about the material things maybe the (00:02:07) finances uh the good meal when things (00:02:10) are beautiful around the person when (00:02:12) there's that good meal the Aromas (00:02:14) there's Beauty around them they feel (00:02:16) good emotionally they feel rooted and (00:02:19) they're naturally concerned about these (00:02:20) things so it might be up one minute down (00:02:22) the next this emotion that emotion it's (00:02:24) very variable uh with the moon energy (00:02:27) and it's not the type of Personality (00:02:29) that you necess necessarily see (00:02:31) instantly in an individual it usually (00:02:33) takes time getting to know them usually (00:02:35) as they open up a little bit and as you (00:02:37) spend more time with them you know time (00:02:39) is a big element with the moon so when (00:02:41) you're with them and you see them in (00:02:43) their varying Shades you'll get a pretty (00:02:45) good idea what their house and sign (00:02:47) placement might be and the sign (00:02:49) placement is essentially the (00:02:52) characteristics so for example like (00:02:54) Scorpio Moon you know for these (00:02:55) individuals things have to have that (00:02:58) quality of Scorpio which is deep which (00:03:01) is intense deep emotional connections (00:03:03) intense emotional connections these (00:03:05) kinds of things the truth if they you (00:03:07) know if things are hidden you know if (00:03:08) there isn't that Honesty that Rapport (00:03:11) that openness um then they feel like (00:03:13) something's you know not right so they (00:03:15) have to have that whether it's with (00:03:17) relationships or if it's with their (00:03:19) career their career for example has to (00:03:21) be meaningful uh but mostly the personal (00:03:23) more feminine aspects of life which is (00:03:26) like the home life and things like that (00:03:28) so it's water it's the water retention (00:03:31) it's the EB and flows it's uh caring you (00:03:35) know nurturing how do the person how (00:03:37) does the person care how's the person (00:03:39) nurture and what are they accepting (00:03:41) about because the moon fundamentally is (00:03:43) about acceptance you know that's that's (00:03:46) what nurturing is when you trace it back (00:03:47) far enough because we have to accept the (00:03:50) way we feel we have to accept other (00:03:52) people for the way that they are or (00:03:54) certain situations for the way that they (00:03:56) are and that essentially is what the (00:03:58) moon represents so inner personality (00:04:01) oftentimes too is it's quite secure you (00:04:03) know it's a private it's a private (00:04:05) aspect of the self but uh through time (00:04:07) we do open up through you know our (00:04:09) relationships and whatnot and you can (00:04:11) start to see those qualities but (00:04:13) definitely for yourself if you're (00:04:14) looking up your moon house or sign (00:04:16) placement uh you should know quite (00:04:19) easily uh you should resonate quite (00:04:21) easily with those um sign and house (00:04:24) characteristics all right so hopefully (00:04:26) this helps and I'll see you guys all (00:04:28) tomorrow for mercury take care for
