Personality
Moon in Aries, you are easily excited and motivated. The moon gives us our instinctual nature – in Aries the moonâs instincts are to be active, going out into the world and achieving goals. You are instantly ignited and passionate about âthingsâ, and you should use that and get to work right away, because the levels of your excitement plummet quite quickly.
The Moon also shows us how we deal with emotions. On the upside you can be quite joyous, triumphant and creative and you will probably easily express these emotions with words or with actions (depending on natal), you can also be an excellent cheerleader for the causes or people you support. On the down side there may be some impatience and emotional outbursts when negative feelings have a chance to build up. When your emotions turn off the brain, you can revert to destructive, angry and even violent actions.
To avoid that and alleviate the more difficult emotions – sports and other physical activities like martial arts can be a good channel for any of that pent up emotional energy. Strong placements can make for courageous souls; daredevils, or people into extreme sports. There is an emotional need for excitement, passion and success. You also need some freedom to be at your happiest state.
At Work
Moon in Aries, you deal well with fast-paced and competitive environments. If possible avoid the routine and the mundane – be somewhere you are reaching targets and achieving goals. Itâs best if there is scope for personal development in your work position. The moon in Aries gives good energy for entrepreneurial aspirations, leadership roles can also suit you, if you can learn to be patient and empathetic towards the people you manage. If you are employed, that Aries fire can help to not let bosses or co-workers take advantage. Real strength is in putting and maintaining healthy boundaries from the start, not letting it get out of hand until the point of uncontrolled rage and outburst!
Moon in Aries can be fighters for a cause, be that literally a soldier or a lawyer engaged in legal combat. You might enjoy work that inspires others as well, that makes them burn for âyour thingâ – be it sports or maths. Pick a career you are passionate about, and if your passions change, follow them, you need new stimuli and new challenges on a regular basis. There can be a love of how things work, engineering, mechanics and anything that goes âBOOMâ.
In Relationships
You prefer things to be uncomplicated. You fall for your partners quite strongly at the beginning but there is some danger that your feelings deflate quickly, to keep the fire going and achieve a long term relationship you need to find a way to keep the excitement going – building common interests, that bring you passion – from sports to car racing take your pick. Your relationships can benefit from cultivating small victories which give you a sense of having succeeded; small improvements and adjustments are cumulative.
Try to develop your relationships into places where you feel free to express yourself without holding back and making sure you retain a sense of freedom. You really need it, so make sure you find a way to spend some time alone on regular occasions, so you can experience the excitement of being back together. This will help the relationship from feeling too constraining and stagnant. Remember a Moon in Aries is about honouring personal needs, ignoring them can quickly lead to arguments and conflict.
Moon in Aries the good news: you are passionate, express your love freely. You are excited about being together and show that openly. From buying those flowers to finding little ways to make your partner happy – you are all action.
The bad news – you can be inconstant and impatient with others and they can cause you frustrations you donât always know how to express eloquently. Your emotions run high and you are not always in control of them – this might be hurtful to your partner. A solution may be to just take a time out, because your emotions are not of a persistent, fixed nature, they calm down quickly and you can confront the problems more constructively after that. Donât forget to explain to your partner that you need a time out đ You have the ability to be direct and express your emotions, much better than letting them stew and build up over time leading to relationship breakdown.
It is better for you to have a nag-free partner, because you hate to be reminded of what you did wrong, it was a momentous action for you, provoked by a temper. And while it is no more, you would do well to understand that the consequences of your emotions and actions might linger for quite long.
How do you like to be treated in your relationships: you want to feel the heat. You need a partner that is enthusiastic about you, that surprises and stimulates you, a partner that will show readiness for debates and arguments when necessary (keep it civil though)
Above all remember: make love not war⊠Both are fire and passion.
We hope this has given you a good overview of the Moon in Aries. Stay passionate, stay happy and see you soon!
