What Moon governs
The Moon rules your inner world: your feelings, instincts, and what you need to feel safe. Where the Sun is who you are, the Moon is how you feel and self-soothe, the private self beneath the public one.

The Moon in Aries stirs your emotions, driving assertiveness and spontaneous actions. You have an emotionally dynamic and impulsive nature.
How it plays out
Aries is a Fire, Cardinal sign ruled by Mars, and that shapes how it carries Moon. Fire expresses itself outwardly and instinctively: warm, immediate, and moved to act on a feeling rather than sit with it. As a cardinal sign, it initiates: this part of you wants to start things, lead, and set the direction.
Is your Moon really in Aries?
Moon moves through the zodiac on its own schedule, so your Moon sign often differs from your Sun sign. Only your birth chart shows where it actually falls. Nocturne computes your whole chart precisely and reads Moon in the context of everything else in it.
