When you first dive into moon signs in astrology you’ll hear the word “emotions” a lot, and while that is certainly one part of the puzzle, your moon sign is so much more than simply your emotions. Your moon sign is an indicator of how you nurture others, and how you prefer to be nurtured in return. It is also the baseline for your perspective and emotional state, meaning that it is the most common mood that you will feel throughout your entire life. Whether you’re raising a child or re-parenting yourself, learning about how to nourish yourself through the lens of your moon sign is a skill that cannot be understated!

This is a fire moon, so their mean emotional state is going to be fiery, passionate, irritable and argumentative. Aries moons learn to be independent at a very young age.
