Your Sun in Aries is who you are becoming; your Moon in Leo is what you need. How they combine in love, work and stress.

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 Leo Moon: what you need
A Leo Moon needs warmth and appreciation: you feel safe when you are celebrated, trusted and free to be generous. Under stress, your Leo Moon feels hurt when ignored and can turn dramatic or proud.
How the Aries Sun and Leo Moon work together
Aries and Leo share an element, a trine. Identity and needs fall into harmony naturally, which is a gift of ease, although easy harmony can be so comfortable that you stay where you are.
Aries is a cardinal fire sign and Leo is a fixed fire sign. What helps: Set a goal that stretches you, because the ease will not push you.
Aries Sun, Leo Moon in love
In love, your Aries Sun goes after what it wants directly and enjoys the chase. Your Leo Moon needs visible affection and praise to feel secure. A partner who understands both halves, not just the one you show first, is the one who stays.

How to find your Moon sign
You need the date, and ideally the time and place, of your birth. The Moon changes sign about every two and a half days, so the date alone often works and the time settles the days it changes.
