What Is The Moon In Astrology?
In your birth chart, the moon represents your emotions, to put it simply. Where the sun is your ego self and dictates your general values and behavior, the moon shows you what you need to feel emotionally fulfilled and what your emotional patterns will be.
Your moon is…
- your emotional patterns
- the part of you closest to your heart that you try to keep safe
- what you need for emotional fulfillment
- what emotions you’ll struggle with (ie emotional volatility, fear, anger, emotional rigidity, etc)
By knowing your moon sign you can…
- be less sensitive to changes in your environment
- nurture yourself and feel loved
- stop repeating emotional patterns
- be aware of your emotions
- improve your relationships (the moon sign is key for relationships!)
- practice self-care
What Is Libra?
Libra is the seventh sign in the zodiac wheel. Opposing Aries, who is all about self-identity, living for the self, independence, aggression, and assertion, Libra holds the opposing qualities.
Libra is where we learn to connect with another person for the first time. We see how connection requires compromise, balance, and neutrality. Libra is a diplomat to a fault. They want to make sure everyone gets what they want. This diplomatic nature serves them well in their desire to connect with another person.
Due to the fact that they always see both sides of the coin, Libra can struggle with indecision. As an air sign, they highly value intellectual connection and logic. This makes them great mediators and very aware of how to appear friendly to all groups.
The Moon In Libra
If you were born with your Moon in Libra, you are likely to be a highly social and relationship-oriented individual with a strong sense of fairness and justice.
When the moon is in Libra, the archetype of connection and partnership, we become highly fulfilled by one-on-one connection. These people have a diplomatic and welcoming attitude that makes them liked by all that meet them.
The Libra moon doesn’t just want romantic partnership but friendship too. These people simply believe that life is better when shared, no matter who that is with. These people take on a friendly and likable attitude to make sure no one feels threatened by them and so they remain liked by all.
However, this tendency leads the Libra Moon to often struggle with seeking approval and forgoing their own needs and desires. The libra moon oftentimes can feel like they are incomplete without another.

With your Moon in Libra, you may struggle with indecisiveness or a tendency to weigh the pros and cons of every decision. You may struggle to make choices without input or guidance from others, and may fear making the wrong decision.

Seeking Approval
You are an expert at getting along and smoothing things over. The problem is that you’ll have a tendency to morph yourself to fit in. Forgoing the self is a massive challenge because as a natural peacemaker, it can be extremely challenging to always be helping create that peace.
