Your Moon sign is the zodiac sign the Moon was in at the moment you were born. It describes how you feel, what comforts you and what you need to feel safe, the private side of you that your Sun sign does not show. Enter your birth date below, with the time and place if you know them, and the calculator works out your Moon sign to the degree.
The Moon moves fast, changing sign every two to two and a half days, so for most people the date alone is enough. If you were born on a day when the Moon changed sign, the time decides it, and the calculator will use it. Your Moon sign appears in the title of your result, and your own reading is below it.
your sky
your sky as three cards
The cards your sky points to
In the old tradition every sign belongs to a card of the Major Arcana. These three are yours: one for your Sun, one for your Moon and one for your rising sign.
exactly where everything stood
Every planet in your chart
the shape of your chart
Your balance, your Moon, your direction
how your planets talk to each other
Your closest aspects
for the people you love
Your sky next to someone else’s
Add a partner, a crush, a friend or your mum. You’ll see where your two skies flow, where they spark and where they ask something of you both. Always a description of two people, never a score.
How to read your Moon sign
Your Sun sign is how you shine; your Moon sign is how you recharge. When people say a horoscope does not sound like them, the Moon is often the missing piece. Read your Moon sign for the moments nobody sees: how you react when you are tired, what you reach for when you are sad, and what kind of care actually lands. In the tarot, the Moon belongs to The High Priestess, the quiet knowing beneath the surface.
Your Moon sign, sign by sign
Aries · Taurus · Gemini · Cancer · Leo · Virgo · Libra · Scorpio · Sagittarius · Capricorn · Aquarius · Pisces
Moon in Aries
You feel fast and honestly. Emotions arrive as an urge to act and pass almost as quickly as they came. You need room to react, and people who do not punish you for a flash of temper. Comfort, for you, is movement: a walk, a task, a clear decision.
One small step: When something stings, move first and talk second.

Moon in Taurus
You feel slowly and steadily, and you need things to stay put while you do. Comfort is physical: good food, a warm bed, the same mug every morning. Change unsettles you more than you show, and you are loyal to the bone.
One small step: Keep one small daily ritual that is entirely yours.
In the cards: The Hierophant, the major arcana card of Taurus. See also the tarot card for Taurus, today’s card for Taurus and Taurus in 2027.
Moon in Gemini
You feel by talking it through. A feeling becomes manageable once it has words, so you need someone to tell or a page to write on. Boredom is a bigger enemy to you than sadness, and a good conversation is your fastest comfort.
One small step: When you are upset, write three sentences before deciding what it means.
In the cards: The Lovers, the major arcana card of Gemini. See also the tarot card for Gemini, today’s card for Gemini and Gemini in 2027.
Moon in Cancer
The Moon is at home here, and you feel deeply and protectively. Home, family and the people you have chosen matter enormously, and you remember everything. You need to feel safe before you open up, and then you give a great deal.
One small step: Say out loud what you need instead of hoping someone guesses.
In the cards: The Chariot, the major arcana card of Cancer. See also the tarot card for Cancer, today’s card for Cancer and Cancer in 2027.
Moon in Leo
You feel warmly and generously, and you need to be seen. Not admired for show, but noticed: your effort, your love and your mood matter to someone. Coldness hurts you more than an honest argument ever could.
One small step: Tell one person what you need to hear, plainly.
In the cards: Strength, the major arcana card of Leo. See also the tarot card for Leo, today’s card for Leo and Leo in 2027.
Moon in Virgo
You feel by fixing. When something is wrong you look for the practical thing to do, and you can be hard on yourself when there is nothing to be done. You need order, usefulness and gentleness from the people closest to you.
One small step: Let one thing be good enough today.
In the cards: The Hermit, the major arcana card of Virgo. See also the tarot card for Virgo, today’s card for Virgo and Virgo in 2027.
Moon in Libra
You feel through other people. Harmony matters so much that you may smooth things over before you know what you feel yourself. You need fairness, beauty and calm, and a few people with whom you can disagree safely.
One small step: Before you agree to keep the peace, ask what you actually think.
In the cards: Justice, the major arcana card of Libra. See also the tarot card for Libra, today’s card for Libra and Libra in 2027.
Moon in Scorpio
You feel intensely and privately. You trust slowly and completely, and betrayal is the one thing you find very hard to forgive. You need depth and honesty, and small talk leaves you lonelier than silence.
One small step: Share one true thing with someone who has earned it.
In the cards: Death, the major arcana card of Scorpio. See also the tarot card for Scorpio, today’s card for Scorpio and Scorpio in 2027.
Moon in Sagittarius
You feel by widening the view. Space, freedom and something to look forward to keep you well, and feeling trapped does the opposite. You recover quickly, laugh easily, and need people who do not hold on too tight.
One small step: When you feel low, plan one thing to look forward to.
In the cards: Temperance, the major arcana card of Sagittarius. See also the tarot card for Sagittarius, today’s card for Sagittarius and Sagittarius in 2027.
Moon in Capricorn
You feel responsibly. You may hold emotions back until the work is done, and look after everyone else before yourself. You need respect, structure and time, and you trust what has been proven over years.
One small step: Schedule rest the way you would a meeting, and keep it.
In the cards: The Devil, the major arcana card of Capricorn. See also the tarot card for Capricorn, today’s card for Capricorn and Capricorn in 2027.
Moon in Aquarius
You feel a little from the outside, thinking about a feeling before you let yourself have it. You need independence, friendship and room to be different, and you are often the calm one in somebody else’s storm.
One small step: Tell someone close one feeling, without explaining it first.
In the cards: The Star, the major arcana card of Aquarius. See also the tarot card for Aquarius, today’s card for Aquarius and Aquarius in 2027.
Moon in Pisces
You feel everything, including what belongs to other people. You are intuitive, tender and easily drained, and you need quiet, imagination and time alone to come back to yourself.
One small step: Before bed, ask which of today’s feelings were actually yours.

Questions people ask
What is my Moon sign?
Your Moon sign is the sign the Moon was in when you were born. Enter your birth date, and if you know them your birth time and place, in the calculator above and it appears in the title of your result.
Do I need my birth time to find my Moon sign?
Usually not. The Moon changes sign every two to two and a half days, so the date is enough on most days. If you were born on a day the Moon changed sign, the time decides it.
What is the difference between my Sun sign and my Moon sign?
Your Sun sign describes how you shine and what you are growing toward. Your Moon sign describes how you feel, what comforts you and what you need to feel safe.
Can my Moon sign be the same as my Sun sign?
Yes. If you were born close to a new moon, the Sun and Moon are often in the same sign, which tends to make what you show and what you feel unusually alike.
