Sun and Moon in Aries: personality, love and work
Your Sun in Aries is who you are becoming; your Moon in Aries is what you need. How they combine in love, work and stress.
If your Sun is in Aries and your Moon is in Aries, you are two people in one chart: the Aries Sun is who you are becoming and the Aries Moon is what you need to feel safe. This page puts the two together.
Fire Sun, Fire Moon: what you want and what you need point the same way, so you are decisive, energetic and quick to act. The risk is burning out, or running past other people's feelings.
Your Aries Sun: who you are becoming
An Aries Sun wants to start things: you grow by acting first, taking the lead and finding out what you are capable of. At work, your Aries Sun takes initiative, starts fast and does best when it owns the result.
Your Aries Moon: what you need
An Aries Moon needs action and independence: you feel safest when you can move, decide and not be held back. Under stress, your Aries Moon reacts fast, gets irritable and needs to move or exercise to let it out.
How the Aries Sun and Aries Moon work together
Sun and Moon in the same sign usually means you were born close to a New Moon. Identity and needs point at one target, so you are consistent and easy to read, though you may find it hard to see yourself from the outside.
Aries is a cardinal fire sign and Aries is a cardinal fire sign. What helps: Ask someone you trust how you come across. You may be more obvious than you think.
Aries Sun, Aries Moon in love
In love, your Aries Sun goes after what it wants directly and enjoys the chase. Your Aries Moon needs to feel free and wanted, and gets restless with too much routine. A partner who understands both halves, not just the one you show first, is the one who stays.
