The Sun and Moon in Aspect

The Sun is reflective of the ego drive within us and its effects within the personality. It is the driving force or lack thereof behind our creative energy and our ambition to make something out of ourselves. It indicates the need and possibilities to expand as an individual in terms of who we are on the inside and what we will become as we mature into our personality.

The Moon is our instinctive self and governs our emotional reaction to the world around us. Its placement by Astrology sign reflects our emotional response to outside stimuli and the way we express our needs and desires in the world around us. The Moon is representative of our feelings and is also connected to the ego as is the Sun. The ego connection of the Moon is more in line with what we need, rather than the Sun’s representation of what we want.

The Moon is often associated with the Mother or with the nurturing individual in our upbringing, while the Sun represents the Father or more authoritative individual in our childhood. Many Astrologers believe that the Sun’s and Moon’s positions by aspect are reflective of the upbringing and whether it was difficult or harmonious. The positions describe the interaction between our parents and the effect this had on us as children.

The Aspects describe the communications that were generated through the interaction of our parents. These emotional interactions affect our lives to the point that any stressful messages brought on by inharmonious Aspects between these luminaries would have made life more complicated. In this scenario, the act of receiving love and peace may not have been part of our maturing process.

The more harmonious and flowing Aspects between the Sun and Moon would produce an easier flow of feelings and love between the parents which in turn open a more positive emotion response for us.

The Moon’s position by sign and house says a lot about our emotional makeup and how we deal with trauma in our lives as well as how we react to love and peace. The Sun positions by sign and house is our rational approach to these same potentials that may occur in life and our mental response and the ego’s reaction to life’s events.
