When the moon is full in your lunar sign, what does it mean?
The Sun symbolizes spirit on a symbolic level (or insert your preferred word of choice, whether divinity or universe or fill-in-the-blank). The Moon represents both the physical and emotional bodies. The full Moon is a moment to be receptive, to allow spirit’s light and awareness to enter your emotional and physical body.
On an energetic level, what is going on during the new Moon is typically happening unknowingly, in the shadows, and is not yet ready to be illuminated. The full Moon improves your awareness and ability to receive insights that have been approaching you by the time you reach it. This occurs at the same moment when the Moon is about to reach fullness. This awareness can help you get clarity and awe about what is going on in your life and when it is happening.
The full Moon isn’t a single-day event or a snapshot in time. It is a Moon phase that is active for at least three days. Allowing oneself to truly be with the Moon during its full phase and whatever comes up for you can become an emotional mastery practice, especially in the days leading up to the lunar event.
Take note of what arises in your emotional body for you. What exactly is it that is being illuminated? What actions or thoughts are no longer able to remain hidden in the shadows? What darkness can’t hold up to the light any longer? What unhelpful mental processes, self-destructive habits, or problematic communication styles need to be addressed specifically? Perhaps you can get the courage to make a change or seek assistance at this time.
Know that you are being spoken to in your dreams, whether you sob, discover inspiration, or have revelatory insights. You’re being shown the emotional and psychological aspects of a reality that wasn’t completely obvious during the New Moon but is now within your grasp. It’s a never-ending process.
When the moon is in your natal sign, what does it mean?
The moon shows our needs as children and the food we received or did not obtain. If the sun is our source of light, the moon is our source of shadow. Astrologers look to that shadow in the birth chart to predict survival instincts, protection mechanisms, and even food patterns. How are we fed and shaped as people? By the ever-loving moon’s light.
Fertility and childbirth have long been associated with the moon. Similarly, the Moon in astrology represents mother influence and how we care for our inner child’s soil.
It’s vital to evaluate which of the twelve houses your moon sign falls in, as well as its relationship to other planets, to have a better idea of the function it plays in your life. The house that the natal moon is in reflects the regions of our lives where we feel most at ease.

Seek new beginnings
“This is a moment for letting go, welcoming closure, and allowing things to finish,” Alejandrez-Prasad explains. Attempting to start over will backfire and fail to gain the momentum that is deserved.
If you’re yearning to start a project, consider what habits, people, or beliefs you’ll need to let go of in order for it to succeed during full moon phases. She says that you should be as honest with yourself as possible because full moons are a great time to let go.
What effect does the moon in your sign have on 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.
Should you consult your horoscope for your moon sign?
Simply put, when you read a horoscope for your rising sign, you are solely concerned with yourself. You’re reading a horoscope to take care of yourself and accept your own existence. You’re treating yourself as if you’re the most important person in your life. If you merely read your horoscope for your sun, the impacts of the horoscope may still have an affect on your life, but through things (or people) that are not focused on you.
Before continuing on to additional planetary placements, I recommend reading your rising sign’s horoscope first. Look at your sun sign if you were born during the day. Your moon sign should be read second if you were born at night. The Sun is the guiding light during the day, while the Moon is the guiding light at night.
You may also read the horoscope for your Venus sign to discover more about love and heartbreak, as well as any other planets you’d like to learn more about throughout the course of a month, week, or day. If you want to learn more about yourself, though, your rising sign’s horoscope is the ideal one to read.
Is your moon sign affected by the moment you were born?
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.
Is the mood affected by the full moon?
Oh no. The first-quarter moon is when you may start to feel a little under the weather “When the moon is in the first quarter, you are more likely to experience resistance and dissatisfaction. You might even become impatient, especially if you’ve established some goals that haven’t yet materialized.” The first-quarter moon, according to Binding, is the ideal moment for some self-care. So, boldly cuddle up in bed; this is not the week for major decisions.
Waxing Gibbous (typically lasts 5 days)
“After the first quarter’s resistance and frustration, the waxing gibbous period’s themes are those of adjustment, refining, and editing,” Binding explains. So, this is a good moment to modify goals that were perhaps a little overly ambitious in the first place. You said you’d cut back on the caffeine? Now is a fantastic time to admit that a latte every now and then might be precisely what you need.
Full Moon
The full moon brings with it a lot of strong feelings. You could feel a little more frazzled and irritable than normal. The full moon can also cause sleep disruptions, so you may find yourself awake at night or sleeping less deeply than normal. And we’ve all experienced the effects of a sleepless night…
“This phase puts us to the test because we can either give in to our sentiments of rage and lose focus, or we can work through them and stay focused on our goal,” Binding explains. “Although working through frustrations might be difficult, and it may seem easier to just give up, keep in mind that these feelings will pass.” So don’t be too hard on yourself, and blame it on the moon if you want to.
Waning Gibbous (typically lasts 5 days)
OK. Breathe. “After the strain of the full moon, during the waning gibbous phase, you will find yourself beginning to loosen up,” Binding explains. “You might also notice that you’re starting to reap the rewards of your efforts toward accomplishing your goals.” The declining gibbous moon phase, she adds, can make us feel more receptive to sharing. So, text your friends; now is the perfect time to catch up.
