The Moon has a weakening effect on other planets and is therefore generally unfavorable when it predominates, unless the individual can rise above it, which is often possible when his horoscope shows minor planetary influences of a strengthening sort.

In Aries, the Moon gives impatience to Mars, resulting in changeable, self-defeating action. The keen minds of this sign are often diverted into foolish channels.

In Taurus, the Moon and Venus further soften an already indulgent nature. Personal gratification and similar faults are apt to retard development.

In Gemini, the Moon hinders the favorable aspects of Mercury. This produces a temperament that is always on the jump, never taking time to develop a given talent. The Moon, however, makes the mind receptive; and its influence fades in the face of stronger indications.

In Cancer, which is the Moon’s own sign, the lunar influence is doubly strong, but often works on the principle of two negatives make a positive, thus bringing out all the better qualities of the sign.

In Leo, the Moon has little effect upon the Sun. It gives an individual a hesitant, uncertain trend, but the Leo nature usually shakes off such moods.

In Virgo, the Moon combines with Mercury. Here, its recaps live quality is a great adjunct to the Virgo ability at analysis, enabling a person to apply his talents in new ways. Its danger is over-imagination, leading to constant worry.

In Libra, the Moon combines unfavorably with Venus. Natural sympathy is stimulated, producing the kindliest of natures; but there is a craving for excitement, acceptance of new fads, and a generally careless disposition.

In Scorpio, with Mars, the Moon curbs the over-dominant trend of this sign, making the individual receptive and therefore more understanding. But it weakens the urge for action, causing hesitation when drive is needed.

In Sagittarius, the Moon joins Jupiter to aid individual adaptability and to improve the sign generally. A fine combination if a person can stay with his ideals and purposes despite occasional spells.

In Capricorn, the Moon and Saturn tend to increase moodiness, but the changeability of the Moon can turn the mind to new channels. The only question is how helpful those changes may be, as the dual influence forces some persons to extremes.

In Aquarius, the Moon and Saturn may lead to many disappointments. The restless quality of Aquarius is overstressed and must be curbed. Receptivity aids the trend toward knowledge, and people so influenced can attain great popularity.

In Pisces, the Moon blends naturally with Jupiter. The lunar influence adds adaptability, but may overwise be weakening through its effect is often negligible.
