The Moon
Astrologers from different schools of thought allocate varying meanings to the Moon in a birth chart. Ancient astrologers say that the Moon changes its nature according to its phases, and merely passes on impressions from other planets rather than directly influencing a person's life. However, modern astrologers tell us that the Moon depicts a person's roots, our home and family. They say the Moon also shows our habitual nature or subconscious patterns of behaviour which stand in the way of achieving our life goals. While the Moon can show us our strengths, it can also depict our weaknesses which need to be overcome in order to be successful in life. The Moon is a fast moving point in a birth chart which changes sign about every two days.
The Moon is in Gemini

It also doesn't particularly worry you if the discussion becomes a little emotional, as you're adept at talking your way around most things. In fact talking and arguing are activities at which you excel. You may even find yourself on a debating team. Your friends may label you a chatterbox as you seem to have something to say on every subject. You're curious and seek answers to many questions, and often have several projects on the go at once. Telephones, televisions, newspapers, computers, radios and books may all feature in your life, as you investigate the many avenues capable of providing extra information.
