I've had this aspect going both ways, me Sun and me the Moon..Everytime someone's moon conjuncts my Sun I find myself longing for their attention for life and I never forget about them. We can be exactly where we left off immediately even if it's been years since we saw each other. Once it was with a girl, we are still best friends. The other with a guy. It always seems to be me that reaches and longs for the relationship, while they are receptive and always open and love our relationship they do not need it the same way I do. Funny thing is, when someone's Sun conjuncts my Moon...I enjoy them, love being around them, feel very comfy and would never turn them away, but it's not the same driving force to be with them as it is with someone who's Moon is on MY Sun.

That's what I'm seeing to with the conjunction the Sun person is so much more devoted. It makes me think the conjunction is not the best because it's unbalanced, unless it's a DW. I'm starting to think the sextile is my fav! It's so much more balanced like a trine would be but its also giving a huge compliment since it's in different elements. I've loved other earth Suns, but there was a certain "dry" feeling after awhile, to tame I guess? The water Suns seem to feel more intriguing and hold my Moons attention since it's an earth Moon.

Gabby, I would check the phase of the MOON person. The SUN is always "on", but the MOON is prone to waxing and waning, which affects the native deeply. Some people have unstable or ephemeral MOON positions, while others have the MOON very prominent and influential.IP: Logged |

Thank you!! So which phases are influential moons that the person feels deeply? I don't feel deeply connected to the suns that conjunct my Moon. I have an unaspected virgo moon in 12th. I feel emotionally connect deeply to a Pluto conjunct my Moon though. How do I find out if a Moon is waxing or waning and how the different phases affect the native? IP: Logged |

Sun conjunct Moon is a really nice aspect in general. How it feels in specifics depends on house placements, and how the Sun or Moon (whichever one is conjunct the partner's luminary) is aspected. If you have Saturn square you're Moon, you might be better off with your partner's Sun trine or sextile to your Moon, because the conjunction might emphasize the Saturn square. If your Moon is nicely aspected then the conjunction may feel very good. The same applies with the Sun. Also if the Sun or Moon is unaspected, while you will still 'feel' the conjunction it may feel oddly disconnected with the rest of your psychology. So strong synastry aspects elsewhere will be needed.I don't believe the Sun always feels it 'more' in every case. However, the Sun by nature is very consisent, and tends to want to DO something to the Moon. It's almost like the Sun can't help but feel compelled to act out towards the Moon when they are in their presence. This is because the Sun is a masculine planet and tends to chase any feminine planets it aspects. Even a very shy person with their Sun aspecting someone's Moon will feel a strong urge to reach out to the Moon person. The Sun person longs to impress and protect the Moon person. The Moon is a feminine planet, and is also very changeable. She has different Moods, and can be in any state on any given day. When the Moon is aspected by the Sun she doesn't chase, but she does crave the attention of the Sun person. The consistency and brightness of the Sun stabilizes and illuminates the Moon. The Sun can impress the Moon person and give them a sense of security. The Moon person can be quite addicted to this feeling they get from the Sun, it's only due to their passive and sensitive nature that they are not inclined to chase. Rather the Moon will try to subtly pull the Sun towards them. The Moon longs to receive the Sun's unwavering outpourings of creative energy, and to be the focus of the Sun’s generosity and charismatic force. The Moon is likely to 'hover' around the Sun person, and try to be at the right place at the right time to get the Sun person's attention. The Sun more likely to just think up an excuse to directly approach the Moon person, and to do it. The Sun's tendency to be consistent and to chase the Moon can give the impression that they care more. This is not necessarily so. If the Sun stops acting towards the Moon, the Moon may miss them terribly. But as I said, the Moon is not inclined to chase unless the something else in Moon person's chart indicates that they'll chase the Sun person. The Moon is more private about their heartbreak if the Sun pulls away. They will cry to themselves, or only close loved ones. The Moon will simply run off somewhere and lick their wounds alone if they feel hurt by the Sun. The Moon doesn't display her feelings as readily as the Sun. She is receptive and reticent. This can give the impression that she cares less. Like I said, it's not always true. The Sun, on the other hand, can get quite melodramatic if the Moon person pulls away. The Sun is much more likely to express to the Moon how upset they are about it, quite forcefully. The Sun is naturally more bold and outgoing then the Moon. The Sun person is more likely to openly display their feelings of hurt to the Moon in someway. Externally this the Sun person's feelings are more obvious, but no one knows how much the Moon may have privately pined for the Sun. Who feels it more is a case by case thing based on overall synastry. About who feels it more in romantic attractions, this depends on houses. If the Sun or Moon resides in or rules the 5th, 7th, or 8th house, then conjunctions to that luminary will really attract you. If none of the luminary's are connected with your relationship houses, then how much conjunctions attract you will depend on how much the partner overall matches your 5th, 7th and 8th houses. If the person's overall chart doesn't match these houses in some way, then a Sun/Moon conjunction will not impact you in a romantic way that strongly. They won't feel like your 'type' even if you do have a strong response to them in other ways. If two people have a Sun/Moon conjunction, how much it's felt by each person will depend on the factors above. If the Moon person's Moon is ruling the 5th house, while the Sun person has the Sun ruling the 3rd house, the Moon will be more attracted romantically because of the 5th house connection. But... This can change if the Moon person's overall chart strongly matches the Sun person's 5th, 7th, or 8th houses. For example, the Sun person has their Dsc ruler in Virgo, and the Moon person has a Virgo stellium in their chart. If this is the case, the Sun person would also be attracted to the Moon person because the Moon person symbolically resembles the Sun person's 7th house energy. Context like this is very important when it comes to yin/yang aspects like Sun/Moon and Venus/Mars. How much people are each other's 'type' is determined by the 5th, 7th, and 8th houses. Physical attraction aspects are not switched on romantically unless the other person is our 'type'. This goes for Sun/Moon aspects as well.

Interesting, What I’ve noticed with trines is that the Sun is very attracted to the Moons vulnerability. The Moon becomes something of a muse for the Sun, and the Moon inspires the Sun’s drive to do well and help the Moon in some way. The Sun feels an urge to ‘perform’ for the Moon, and to protect them. The Sun hates the thought of hurting the Moon in any way. Whereas, the Moon sort of hangs around the Sun kind of like a groupie hanging around a star, hoping the Sun will notice them. The Moon longs to be there for the Sun person to comfort and support them, and the Moon is very attracted to the Sun’s strength of character. They Moon admires the Sun greatly. The Moon is really good at building up the Sun’s confidence. This all happens in a smooth, harmonious way with soft aspects.

Lotis, after reading your post I realized the ppl I had this conjunction with had negative aspects to their moon and it didn't connect in their chart very well in other ways.One had 11th house Moon opposed Mars, kicker is his 5th and 11th are intercepted houses... His Neptune conjunct Moon by 5 degrees but Nep was not in the intercepted house, also Uranus was an exact sextile to Moon. The other only aspect to Moon was Moon opposed Venus, with the Moon in 12th house. Having a 12th house Moon myself I understand how having a light shined into my 12th is very uncomfortable.

Wow, this is so accurate! I actually even write songs about this Moon person. He is very supportive as well, although he doesn't know I write about him lol Moon trine Saturn in his Natal so he gives me a lot of talks about how I've got to have discipline if I really want this (aka work with music) IP: Logged |

This is so interesting! His Sun conjuncts my Moon. He has not chased me, but he often complimented me in front of others, repeatedly, and also while we were alone. I felt warm, like he was shining his light (him being the Sun) on me. And yes, I never made my feelings about him public knowledge. My Moon trines his Sun. I have written poetry about him. haha Oh, and this line: "Whereas, the Moon sort of hangs around the Sun kind of like a groupie hanging around a star, hoping the Sun will notice them." This made me lol. Sometimes he comes to my desk or hangs around my desk so I would notice him. He is also super supportive. Our Moons and Suns do not hit any of romantic houses (10H, 6H, bleh), but we have other supportive aspects, too. Great thread. Lots of great info here. Thanks, Lotus White and Gabby! IP: Logged |

Great post, Lotis!  Very relevant to me as well, as my Sun-Mercury conjuncts his Sun-Moon-MC. So he is the Moon in that Sun-Moon-aspect. "If you have Saturn square you're Moon, " Which is what he has. Saturn squaring his Sun-Moon-MC tightly. Where it gets even more complicated is that his Saturn is conjunct his DESC exactly and his Vertex, as well.
Could be I seem familiar to him, and yet make him rather uncomfortable at the same time. I am always reminding him of that Saturn in the background. But then again it is not that much in the background, being angular either. I suppose his workaholic-schedules is one epxression of that Saturn-square in his natal. "Also if the Sun or Moon is unaspected, while you will still 'feel' the conjunction it may feel oddly disconnected with the rest of your psychology." Which is true for my Sun, while conjunct MErcury there are no real strong aspects to other planets.
Interestingly that weird Sun-Moon-conjunction with all the other stuff attached to it, is aspecting both true Black Moon`s which are opposing each other exactly. So that means his Sun-Moon sextiles my BML, while my Sun trines his BML. " It's almost like the Sun can't help but feel compelled to act out towards the Moon when they are in their presence." Tell me about it.  He sure knows how to push the right buttons to get a reaction out of me. lol well at least that is true for any kind of online-writing.  I don´t even WANT to do that, it just happens.
" The Moon is likely to 'hover' around the Sun person" Which is what I noticed before, and it just felt a little weird. "If the Sun or Moon resides in or rules the 5th, 7th, or 8th house" Moon rules his 5th house, Mercury rules my 7th house.

I can relate to this... I have a first house gem sun and I'm very attracted to gem moons. Only one confirmed a mutual attraction though. Besides a wide opposition from Neptune (9-10 degrees), my sun trines my 5th house Saturn (8HR) and Pluto (1,6), conjunct my asc and mercury (1,9). You'd think id attract more gem moons. Maybe I have but didn't notice! Totally possible. These are my favorite. I'm like let's play... I do tend towards dominance and aggressive behavior with them. Their expression of gem qualities are really soft compared to me; makes me wanna be all protective. The dynamic when the conjunction involves my moon is a little different. I definitely feel attraction, but there's a lot of reluctance and suspicion involved. I have a 7th house cap moon. If the conjunction is applying within 3 degrees, it also conjuncts Juno, trines my venus, and squares my mars. Mostly, I've experienced separating conjunctions where the sun is conjunct my SN in my 8th house, trine my venus and square my Saturn (8th lord). The 8th house/Saturn square explains a lot. These are the people who REALLY like me, but I'm like back off perv! IP: Logged | |
