Sun in Scorpio, Moon in Leo: personality, love and work
Your Sun in Scorpio is who you are becoming; your Moon in Leo is what you need. How they combine in love, work and stress.
If your Sun is in Scorpio and your Moon is in Leo, you are two people in one chart: the Scorpio Sun is who you are becoming and the Leo Moon is what you need to feel safe. This page puts the two together.
Water Sun, Fire Moon: sensitive in who you are, yet instinctively bold. You protect others, and you react fast when you feel cornered.
Your Scorpio Sun: who you are becoming
A Scorpio Sun goes deep: you grow by facing what is hidden, committing fully and changing more than once. At work, your Scorpio Sun researches deeply, handles pressure and does best on work that matters.
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 Scorpio Sun and Leo Moon work together
Scorpio and Leo are three signs apart, a square: the same modality but clashing elements. The friction between what you want and what you need is real, and it is also where much of your drive comes from.
Scorpio is a fixed water sign and Leo is a fixed fire sign. What helps: Give both sides a job. Let the Sun lead in public and let the Moon choose how you rest.
Scorpio Sun, Leo Moon in love
In love, your Scorpio Sun loves intensely and all-in, and wants complete honesty. 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. Use the free Moon sign calculator, or draw your whole birth chart to see the Sun, Moon and Rising sign together. The big three guide explains how the three work as a set.

Frequently asked questions
Is a Scorpio Sun with a Leo Moon a good combination?
It is a dynamic rather than easy combination. The friction is productive once you stop expecting the two sides to agree. This page compares signs only, so the exact angle between your Sun and Moon depends on their degrees.
What does a Leo Moon add to a Scorpio Sun?
The Scorpio Sun is your purpose and the way you show yourself. The Leo Moon adds your emotional needs and instincts. A Leo Moon needs warmth and appreciation: you feel safe when you are celebrated, trusted and free to be generous.
Do I need my birth time to know my Sun and Moon sign?
Your Sun sign only needs the date. The Moon sign needs the date, and the time helps when the Moon changes sign on your birthday. Your Rising sign, the third part, always needs the time.
