The Moon stands for emotions, instincts, the unconscious. It represents your instinctive actions. It signifies your personality. It represents the side of you that reacts before you have time to think. In many ways your Moon personality is the one you keep hidden. Your Moon personality is a part of yourself that you find disturbing. It is your inner core, which feels hate and jealousy, broods and is fearful, and has fantasies that you often deny even to yourself. It is also your Moon side that can spontaneously feel and express joy and pleasure, the side that reacts to emotional stimuli. The Moon also stands for infancy, childhood, your dreams, memory, and your past. The Moon in your horoscope modifies your Sun sign; it brings new forces, different motivations, special elements to the character of your Sun sign.
