While determining your sun sign is simple (based on your birth date), determining your moon sign is a little more difficult.
Calculating your full date, location, and time of birth, as well as your position around the moon, yields your moon sign.
It travels fast across the zodiac, spending two to two and a half days in each sign.
Your lunar sign is likely to differ from your solar sign; for example, you may be a Taurus, but your lunar sign is Sagittarius.

What are my rising and moon signs?
When it comes to astrology, the sun, moon, and rising stars are the three signs you should be familiar with.
The position of the sun at the time of your birth determines which of the 12 zodiac signs you belong to. The zodiac sign in which the moon was positioned when you were born is known as your moon sign, and it indicates your emotions. The position of the houses in the birth chart is determined by the rising sign, which is as follows:
- The First House is the House of the Self (ruled by Aries)
- House of Values is the second house (ruled by Taurus)
- House of Sharing is the third house (ruled by Gemini)
- The House of Home and Family is the fourth house (ruled by Cancer)
- House of Pleasure is the fifth house (ruled by Leo)
- The House of Health is the sixth house (ruled by Virgo)
- The House of Balance is the seventh house in the horoscope (ruled by Libra)
- The House of Transformation is the eighth house in the horoscope (ruled by Scorpio)
- The House of Purpose is located in the Ninth House (ruled by Sagittarius)
- The House of Enterprise is the tenth house in the horoscope (ruled by Capricorn)
- The House of Blessings is the eleventh house (ruled by Aquarius)
- The House of Sacrifice is the Twelfth House (ruled by Pisces)
What is the sign of the moon for you?
Your moon sign is the zodiac sign in which the moon was at the time of your birth. It’s the soul of your identity, the hidden part of yourself that you may keep hidden from others (unlike your outwardly appearing sun sign), and it accounts for a significant portion of your emotional side.
Is it necessary to know your date of birth in order to determine your moon sign?
The moon travels fast across the 12 zodiac signs, taking about a month to visit all of them. This is why, unlike finding your sun sign, determining your moon sign requires extreme precision. As a result, you cannot determine your lunar sign only based on your date of birth. To find out your specific moon sign, you’ll need your birth date, the geographic place where you were born, and the hour of your birth.
For correct lunar sign placement, it’s crucial to be as close to minutes as feasible. On the internet, you can find various astrology websites that will determine your moon sign based on your birth date, place of birth, and time of birth. You can also contact an experienced astrologer to identify your moon sign based on an estimate of your birth time.
What are my three major indicators?
In your birth chart, the Big Three are your Sun sign, Moon sign, and Rising sign. Understanding your Big Three is crucial because they serve as a pattern for who you are, what you want, and how you behave.
Is Virgo a sun sign or a lunar sign?
Those born between August 23 and September 22 have the sun sign Virgo as their zodiac sign. (It’s not exact since the sun changes signs on different days each year.) Also, while we often refer to ourselves as our sun sign, it’s only one component of a natal chart, which is essentially a unique snapshot of the sky at the time of your birth. However, it’s a minor detail that contributes to your overall sense of self, identity, personal style, self-esteem, and confidence.
Is it possible to find your rising sign without knowing your date of birth?
You must know your exact birth time in order to establish your rising sign. Because the rising sign changes every two hours, this is the case. Fortunately, your birth time is printed on your birth certificate.
