Moon (astrology) - Definition and Overview

In western astrology The Moon represents the feeling nature in of the individual. It characterises the inner child within us, as well as the past and how we have been as individuals rather than how we are now. It also represents the perception one has of one's mother, so someone with a Pisces Moon would be more likely to see their mother as a piscean type, even if in reality that was not the case. In the horoscope the aspects the moon makes with other planets and the transits the slower moving planets make to the moon all have a strong psychological impact on how our lives unfold.
