Because it reflects your emotional needs and how you process feelings—areas your sun sign doesn’t fully explain.

You need your DOB, birth time, and birthplace. Then use a moon sign chart or calculator.

4. Do moon sign dates change?

Yes. The moon changes signs every 2–2.5 days, so its dates shift quickly.

Your sun sign shows your outer personality; your moon sign shows your inner self.

If your sun sign reveals who you are, your moon sign explains how you feel. In astrology, it's one of the most important layers of your chart, offering insight into your emotional responses, instincts, and the side of you that not everyone gets to see. While your sun sign might govern your personality and outward identity, your moon sign quietly influences your moods, comfort zones, and deeper needs. Understanding it can be incredibly reassuring, especially when you finally realise, "Ah—that's why I react this way!"
