Moon

The Moon is the chart's private interior: feeling, instinct, the reflex of need that runs beneath the thinking self. It governs how a person is soothed and shaken, the memory the body keeps and the comfort it seeks, and it rules Cancer, the sign of home and belonging.

Unsettled, the Moon swings — moods that flood, a clinging to old safety, a hunger that no comfort quite fills. At ease, it is the deep capacity to feel and to nurture, the quiet knowledge of what one truly needs.
