The Capricorn Moon: what you need

You have a strong need for security and structure in your emotional life. You process feelings through practical achievement and responsibility. You are somewhat reserved in expressing emotions and may appear cold or distant to others. You need to feel you are making progress and achieving goals to be emotionally satisfied. You may be hard on yourself emotionally.

Identity and instinct

When the Sun and Moon occupy signs of the same element (fire, earth, air, or water), there exists a natural harmony between conscious identity and emotional needs. This combination creates internal coherence between what one strives to become and what feels emotionally secure.

Where Capricorn and Capricorn pull differently

The same six areas of life, read once through the conscious Capricorn Sun and once through the instinctive Capricorn Moon. Where the two rows agree, this person is unconflicted; where they diverge is usually where the friction actually lives.

Common questions

What does it mean to have a Capricorn Sun and Capricorn Moon?

With Sun and Moon both in Capricorn, this is a chart of internal agreement: the conscious will and the emotional instinct pull in the same direction, for better and for worse. Capricorn traits get amplified rather than balanced by a different lunar temperament.

How do I find out my Moon sign?

The Moon changes sign roughly every two and a half days, so a birth date alone is not enough - two people born the same day can have different Moon signs. You need the date, the time, and the place of birth to calculate it.

Is a Capricorn Sun with a Capricorn Moon a difficult combination?

It is a concentrated one rather than a difficult one. With both lights in Capricorn, there is no second temperament to balance the first, so the sign's strengths and its blind spots both run unchecked.
