The Moon governs your emotional world: your affective needs, your reflexes for comfort, the way you feel safe.

Knowing your moon sign means recognising what you truly need to feel at peace, and why some situations affect you more than others.

Frequently asked questions about the moon sign
What is a moon sign?
Your moon sign is the zodiac sign the Moon occupied at the moment of your birth. Where the sun sign describes your conscious identity, the moon sign describes your emotional world: your affective needs, how you feel and how you soothe yourself.
How do you calculate your moon sign?
The Moon changes sign roughly every two and a half days, so a simple table by date won't do. You need the real position of the Moon at your birth. This calculator establishes it from your date (and, for more precision, your time), with no approximate formula.
Moon sign vs sun sign: what's the difference?
The Sun says how you shine and what you aim to achieve; the Moon says how you feel and what you need to feel safe. You can be a sun Aries and a moon Cancer: assertive outside, yet deeply sensitive within.
Do I need my time of birth?
Not necessarily for the sign: the date is enough in most cases. The time matters mainly when the Moon was near a sign boundary that day, and will become necessary to place your Moon in a house (coming soon).
