THE MOON'S ASPECTS TO OTHER PLANETS IN THE
NATAL CHART
On
June 22, 2018 we wrote about the Moon’s influence in our astrology chart. Today we will continue our focus on the Moon
and its effects.
The
energies of the Moon in the birth chart and the aspects it makes to other
planets play a significant role from an emotional point of view. It is also a good indicator of our nurturing
capabilities. The aspects between the
Moon and other planets are far reaching and needs to be deciphered carefully.
The
aspect itself will define much of the energies shared between the aspecting planet
and the Moon. Conjunctions (0 degrees) in
particular are emphasized and are very powerful agents for emotional
release. They merge the energies of the
planet in question and the Moon. As you
can imagine the energies of Saturn and the Moon combined, for example, will be
quite different from the energies of Venus and the Moon. The interlinking sign, as well as the house
position will be how these energies are released.
The
opposition (180 degrees) always involves others, while the square (90 degrees) usually
represents some challenge to overcome.
Both are generally considered difficult, although the energies are
inclined to push us to find solutions to the issues suggested by the planet, the
house and sign positions of both energies involved. Squares in particular have obstacles and challenges
attached to them and push us to find a resolution to the issue at hand.
Trines
(120 degrees) and sextiles (60 degrees) often suggest easy flow and
opportunities. Once again, we must take
into consideration the signs (especially the Moon’s sign position) and the house
positions of both the Moon and the planet involved as this will help define how
these energies might unfold.
Now
although Saturn for example is challenging, even with easy aspects, it also
provides structure and security. We
learn to assimilate these energies and work constructively with them.
Saturn
can provide a suitable resolution and eventual provide a tool to repair the
issue associated with these aspects.
Pluto
suggests change and transformation due to the necessity for growth and
evolution.
Neptune
suggests spiritual enlightenment through emotional connectiveness or could
speak of illusionary emotional issues.
Uranus
speaks of sudden and dramatic emotional interaction and a new route or
direction often opens up.
Jupiter
speaks of opportunities to enrich our lives through emotional interaction and
positive belief structures being formed.
Mercury
speaks of emotional and mental linkage and depending on the aspects involved
will either help us decipher our emotional expression or cloud this expression. Much will also depend on the signs
involved.
Venus
speaks of an emotional connection made through expressions of love and
affection.
Mars
brings out our emotional expression through acts of aggression, not necessarily
formidable aggression, but action on our part or through those we interact
with.
There
are many combinations due to the possible, planets, houses and aspects involved
but these are a few expressions of our Moon and the planets linked to this
luminary.
On
June 27 we will look at the Moon and the Astrological elements.
