qualities of the elements

why do the elements mean what they mean? plato was the first to attach the term to what we know today as the 4 elements. he fleshed out the idea that the 4 elements are the smallest component that everything is comprised of (an idea that started with empedocles), after centuries of philosophers arguing about which was THE single element that everything on earth could be reduced to. then, aristotle took that even further. his idea was that the elements could turn into each other, so they have to have qualities about them that contrast. he established the 4 qualities of the elements. two pairs of qualities that have contrasting traits within each pair, but don’t contrast between pairs. 

hot is the opposite of cold, and vice versa. these are active qualities. 

heat creates motion. hot signs are active and mobile. 

coldness is slower, more stagnant. cold signs are reflective. 

dry is the opposite of wet, and vice versa. these are passive qualities. these are qualities that happen to things. 

dryness separates. dry signs are individualistic. 

wetness connects. wet signs are fluid. 

each element is assigned a quality from each pair and go as follows:

FIRE is hot and dry

EARTH is cold and dry

AIR is hot and wet

WATER is cold and wet

you may have heard this phrase for “compatible” elements as “water and earth make mud, fire and air make hot air.” this idea stems from aristotle’s theory of the elements. remember, his idea was that the elements can transmute into each other in a cyclical fashion. the elements that share an active quality (hot and cold) can transmute into each other easier than if they didn’t share an active quality. fire and air are both hot, and water and earth are both cold. 

the signs weren’t always associated with the elements, according to Chris Brennan in his book, Hellenistic Astrology, The Study of Fate and Fortune (p.261), but they were always grouped into the 4 sets of 3 that would later be associated with the elements. valens was the first to associate these triplicities with the elements. he lists them in the same pattern we know today starting with aries being fiery and ending with pisces being watery.

how did the elements get their traits? you can see these ideas further fleshed out with the temperaments that you might have learned about in PSYCH-101. I don’t have anything written on this yet, but here is an article by E.V. Starling and another one by Ryhan Butler

dualities in astrology

the 12 signs are divided into 2 groups of six. each group is assigned a duality. learning about the duality can help get a better grasp of the traits of the signs individually. 

these dualities are referred to as masculine energy and feminine energy, but because of the way society has added gender roles to those terms these energies can also be called active and receptive. the dualities are the most basic form of classification and dictate our most base level of compatibility. you may have heard the classic “fire and air make hot air and water and earth make mud.” the fire and air signs are masculine or active energies and the earth and water signs are the feminine or receptive energies. in my practice, I keep the masculine/feminine terminology not to perpetuate the binary but to speak on energies that are within us all, regardless of our gender. 

the order that the signs are listed is not accidental! below, the signs are grouped by their duality. the true order of the signs goes: aries, taurus, gemini, cancer, leo, virgo, libra, scorpio, sagittarius, capricorn, aquarius, and pisces. notice how the order also goes in a masculine, feminine, masculine, feminine, etc order. knowing the order of the signs can help you pick out the classifications for the signs quickly and conveniently. 

masculine energy: aries - gemini - leo - libra - sagittarius - aquarius

active, direct, energetic, forceful - fire and air

masculine energy is directed outwards. these signs are more active and assertive. the energy is linear. the signs are associated with the day (diurnal). in simple terms, the masculine signs are the fire and air signs. their focus is on the spiritual and intellectual world. masculine energy is associated with yang. 

feminine energy: taurus - cancer - virgo - scorpio - capricorn - pisces

receptive, magnetic, reactive, reserved - earth and water

feminine energy is self contained. their strength is through inner reserves. these signs are more reactive and receptive. the energy is circular. the signs are associated with night (nocturnal). in simple terms, the feminine signs are earth and water signs. their focus is on the emotional and tangible world. feminine energy is associated with yin

modalities in astrology

the 12 signs are divided into 3 groups of four. each group is assigned a modality. learning about the modalities can help get a better grasp of the traits of the signs individually. these groups are called quadruplicities, because there are 4 signs in each group.

the order the signs are listed in is not accidental! the zodiac starts in aries and ends in pisces. the signs are listed in order by their modality as well! isn’t that cool how everything just lines up? makes it so much easier to memorize. below, the signs are grouped with their modality so it’s not technically in order. the 12 sign order goes: aries, taurus, gemini, cancer, leo, virgo, libra, scorpio, sagittarius, capricorn, aquarius, and pisces. notice how it goes in modality order.

modalities are styles in which the elements can express themselves through. the elements coincide with the four seasons, and each season has a beginning, a middle, and an end. the modalities are that beginning, middle, and end. 

CARDINAL: aries - cancer - libra - capricorn

the beginning 

cardinal signs bring forth power, action, and initiation. these modalities represent the start of the different seasons. aries initiates spring, cancer begins summer, libra takes us into fall, and capricorn starts our winter. cardinal signs are enterprising. since they usher us into each season, they bring a call to action. they want to get things started and get ideas off the ground. cardinal signs can be independent and won’t answer to anyone in pursuit of their goals. they give a certain push. 

FIXED: taurus - leo - scorpio - aquarius 

the middle

the fixed signs bring stability, strength, and focus. these modalities represent the middle of the season, where the power of that season is in full force. taurus keeps things beautiful while spring is in full bloom, leo is a powerful force that comes around when the sun is the strongest in the year during summer, scorpio transforms the landscape as the leaves turn and fall from the trees in autumn, and aquarius remains strong as snow piles up on the hills in the dead of winter. fixed signs are the pillars of the zodiac, they have the power to sustain. their focus allows them to create new ideas and form new pathways. fixed signs are taken seriously. 

MUTABLE: gemini - virgo - sagittarius - pisces

the end?

the mutable signs bring flexibility, adaptability, and continuity. these modalities represent the transitions between seasons. gemini is the excitement you feel as spring turns into summer and classes let out, virgo brings the start of the fall semester a sense of organization as summer turns into fall, sagittarius is the increasing optimism you feel when the holidays approach as autumn turns into winter, and pisces thaws the snow as the animals come back out to birth new life when winter turns back into spring. mutable signs are able to adapt and change to suit new situations, just as we have to adapt to the new seasons as they appear. they go with the flow and tackle whatever comes their way. mutable signs are able to adjust.

Do you answer compatibility things too ? If yes what do you think about an Aquarius (sun+Mercury),Scorpio (moon+Mars),Pisces (Venus) and an Aquarius (sun+Mercury+Venus+mars),libra (moon) ? And what do you think are generally good matches for someone with a Scorpio moon and Aquarius sun ? 🙈 Sorry for bad english

hey, don’t worry about it! 100% of the time, non-native english speakers are doing amazing. alright so I’m assuming you’re the aqua/scorpio. aquarius with aquarius can definitely be good. both are fixed air signs. the thing about fixed signs is that they need to be on the same page. if they disagree, then there’s no progress being made. if you are on the same page with your beliefs and interests, this is a very fulfilling relationship. however, those scorpio placements are going to make you have a depth that this person can’t comprehend. they’re almost entirely made up of air signs. air signs are more intellectual and fact based in their emotions, while scorpio feels HARD. you’re also going to find yourself being jealous, and they may not understand this. don’t be afraid to be open and honest with your insecurities and feelings. try to work through those emotions in a logical way. this will help your partner to understand and it may help you from letting your emotions consume you.for your placements, not that this pairing is a bad one, I would think someone with more depth would be a good match. any water sign placements are going to deepen someone. but I also think leo, sagittarius, libra, and maybe taurus are something to look for as well. but, again, I don’t see this pairing as doomed. there are definitely some potential problems that can be worked through. those problems aren’t necessarily deal breaker status, I don’t think.

[classtrologyblog]

Hi there I love your blog! Could you give a quick reading for an aqua sun/taurus moon/cancer rising please?

aqua sun/taurus moon: you’re stubborn as hell! that of course is good and bad. you’re not easily pushed around, but you’re not very open to other ideas, beliefs, and ways of doing things. but, you’re respected. you carry yourself well. you’re very independent, and don’t really ask for help. but you’re definitely there for other people when they come to you with their problems. you have an interest in people and relationships, but you’re more of an observer than someone who gets very emotionally involved. you’re standards when it comes to people simply comes from whether or not they’re interesting to you. but that’s as far as your discriminations go. you judge people based on who they are. this also causes you to be very “take it or leave it” when it comes to how others view you. you’re not going to go out of your way to impress someone. they’re either impressed or they’re not. you’re also a very live and let live person, which is why you’re not very discriminating. you have your ideas and other people have theres and that’s that. since you’re so fixed in your ideas, debate isn’t something you’re too interested in. you might think everyone else is the same, so what’s the use. you appreciate living a peaceful life and are most happy when everything is chill. problems in your personal relationships and at home can have a large effect on your mood. cancer rising: you’re very approachable! people feel at peace in your presence. you may have had people say “I feel like I’ve known you my whole life,” after just meeting them. it’s the comforting aura you give off. you also may experience people who open up a lot to you without realizing it. like everyone wants to tell you their biggest secret for some reason. I also find that cancer risings and suns have their emotions written on their face at all times.

Can you please do me a comparability reading? Leo sun/mars, Aquarius moon/rising, Virgo mercury, Libra Venus (f) and Capricorn sun, Aries moon, Sagittarius mercury, Aquarius Venus, Aries mars (m). I don't know if you needed mercury signs but I gave them in case you need them. Thank you! Your work is truly amazing.

awww thank you so much! overall, I don’t see any glaring problems except that a cap sun/aries moon may be too closed off for a leo sun. I would say that with all the other placements, this may not be a deal breaker for her. I would ask if she really values romance and affection like a typical leo does. If these are important things for her, he may not be able to provide them, but adjustments can be made when people are willing. nothing’s impossible, it just depends on willingness to adapt to others. both are air venuses, which is good. aqua venus likes an unconventional approach to love and a libra venus is willing to compromise. libra venus needs equality in the relationship. with his placements, he may try to take charge in the relationship, but she won’t let him get away with this. the goal is to work together instead of competing. hopefully you both have different career paths, or there could be jealousy here. with these mars placements, there’s potential for competing as well. make sure you’re both getting what you need in the bedroom and one person isn’t becoming too selfish. definitely a possibility with these venus/mars combos. as a libra venus, she has to make sure she’s asserting herself and getting what she wants. libra placements tend to bend to the demands of others. resentment will build after too much bending though. one other minor issue I could see is these mercuries. she specializes in details and he specializes in big picture thinking. recognize these strengths and let the other person be right sometimes. but yeah, overall there’s good potential. this is certainly a fun pairing. boredom shouldn’t become a problem. just watch for competing and selfish behavior from each other.

[classtrologyblog]

Hey! I just saw your blog and I like it a lot! Lately I've really gotten into astrology so I just wanted to know your opinion about a person with Sun - Taurus, Rising - Cancer, Moon - Pisces, Mercury - Gemini, Venus - Aries and Mars - Sagittarius.. Like how's their love life and how do they deal with life in general. Thank you in advance! ☄

taurus sun/pisces moon: this combination gives you a very dreamy, impressionable personality. you have a need for sympathy and affection, but you may isolate yourself as a fear of not being accepted/understood. your impressionability from pisces makes you susceptible to flattery and people could potentially walk all over you, taking advantage of your compassion and dependability. there’s a passivity here that can attract malicious friends and acquaintances. pisces likes to see the best in people, so take care in deciding who becomes close to you. but this combination gives a romantic vibe as well. 

gemini mercury: you’re invigorated by conversation. you’re very open minded, but base your opinions on facts rather than emotions. you’re able to make quick decisions. those with more watery mercuries may be turned off by your communication style, although your pisces moon may make you able to understand each other better. 

aries venus/sagittarius mars: aries venus can be very up front with what it wants. they’re more “innocent” and prefer a more fun, carefree approach to love. they like to keep things light. you value honesty and directness from your partners as well. sag mars also appreciates things being more fun, and not serious. they don’t like to feel boxed in. sag mars has a tendency to be blunt. sag mars doesn’t like when people don’t agree with their ideas. 

overall: I think fire and air signs would be most compatible. libra, gemini, and leo most specifically. 

[classtrologyblog]

I'm loving the career readings you're giving ppl! I would like to have one as well please :) I'm Gemini sun/venus (10th house) & mercury (11th house), Leo moon (12th house), Leo rising, Aries mars (9th house), Taurus MC, Capricorn North Node & I have saturn-pluto R if that helps at all. Thank You

gemini sun in 10th, gemini mercury, leo rising taurus midheaven, cap nn, aries mars

of course! you’re welcome <3 sorry for the delay

I don’t know if I’ve done many taurus midheavens.. interesting. taurus mc’s are much like the taurus sun in that they are determined and require security. taurus mc’s like to do things their own way (there’s that taurus stubbornness), and mixed with your leo rising, you probably prefer work that gives you individual success and recognition. for any earth signs, it’s difficult to trust others to get a job done when they have their own way of doing things. this is no less true for the taurus mc; it’s very difficult for you to delegate tasks. since you’re a gemini sun, you also probably feel this way just because you want to be involved every step of the way. taurus mc mixed with a leo rising gives a creativity. 

having your sun in the 10th just further solidifies your “I answer to no one” mentality. this gives you a strong ambition and makes you goal-oriented. a sun in the 10th wants to be in the spotlight. with your aries mars in the mix, you’re ambitious as hell and maybe a little daring. 

OVERALL: a career in the arts or finance would best suit you. gemini is communicative, so perhaps your artistic nature comes through in writing or speaking, maybe acting. music, design, architecture, etc. taurus is good with finances, so jobs in banking and things of that nature could be a good fit as well. 

[classtrologyblog]

Omg I love your tumblr! Could you do a mini compatibility report? I am an aries sun, virgo moon, aries mercury, taurus venus, gemini mars and pisces ascendant. He is a libra sun, gemini moon, libra mercury, scorpio in venus and mars and a cancer ascendant (not sure about that one lol)

thanks! and absolutely. 

that’s quite an interesting sun/moon/rising combo you got there. this combination can be more direct and practical. since he has an air/air combo, you may see him as more careless when it comes to details. he may see you as too uptight at times. but your aries can definitely be channeled in a more fun way. there’s just a tendency with aries sun/virgo moon to be very no-nonsense and critical. however, you are both intellectual and potentially have a lot in common. just know your minds work in different ways, be able to accept the other person in their differences. an aries mercury can potentially steam roll over a libra mercury, and the libra mercury would let them. libra mercuries have a need for fairness, so make sure you both hear each other out and take both of your feelings/opinions into account. an aries mercury believes they’re always right, but the libra mercury knows that there are two sides to every story. I can see potential frustration here, but hopefully nothing too explosive if you recognize and respect each other’s differences. 

your venus signs are opposites, but there are definitely some commonalities. both taurus and scorpio are stubborn in love. they don’t let go easily. they’re committed and loyal. scorpio, however is way more intense, so taurus can calm those scorpio emotional needs. the clash of these opposites comes into play with predictability. scorpio gets threatened when things become too predictable, as they always expect the worst. taurus thrives on predictability. there needs to be a common ground found here. gemini mars has a tendency to hit below the belt with their words, which can cut scorpio pretty deeply. scorpio mars will be resentful or even turn to manipulation if they become too wounded. your sex is probably going to be great because scorpio mars is like the most intense mars placement.

elements in astrology

the 12 signs are divided into 4 groups of three. each group is assigned an element. learning about the elements can help get a better grasp of the traits of the signs individually. these groups are called triplicities, because there are 3 signs in each group. 

the order the signs are listed in is not accidental! the zodiac starts in aries and ends in pisces. the signs are listed in order by their element as well! isn’t that cool how everything just lines up? makes it so much easier to memorize. below, the signs are grouped with their element so it’s not technically in order. the 12 sign order goes: aries, taurus, gemini, cancer, leo, virgo, libra, scorpio, sagittarius, capricorn, aquarius, and pisces. notice how it goes in element order.

elements are just one of many ways that the signs of the zodiac are classified by. having an understanding of each type of classification will help you so much in differentiating among the signs. I will post about the other classifications at a later date. 

FIRE: aries - leo - sagittarius

action, enthusiasm, passion, warmth, courage, independence

there is a light that never goes out 

whether it’s through the drive of aries, the romance of leo, or the wanderlust of sagittarius, fire signs have a fire burning inside them. like a match striking into a flame, fire signs desire action. life doesn’t just happen to fire signs, fire signs go out there and live. fire signs are often all lumped together as being extroverted, but this doesn’t always have to be the case. regardless of how comfortable they are in a crowded room, fire signs are passionate and enthusiastic about their interests and ideas. and the warmth radiating from them is unmistakable. however, a fire can easily turn from a tame campfire to a raging forest fire. an untamed fire sign can be arrogant, bossy, and aggressive. fire signs are also not without hardships and feelings of self consciousness. a fire needs fuel to keep going, so be sure to fuel your fire. if that fire goes out, you have the ability to rise again from the ashes. 

EARTH: taurus - virgo - capricorn 

practical, stable, grounded, reliable, responsible

we built this city 

earth signs stay grounded. the builders of the zodiac; taurus builds a strong foundation, virgo pays attention to detail, and capricorn strategizes. earth signs require a solid footing in life, keeping firmly planted on the ground. your practicality gives you a desire to obtain the tangible in the world, just beware of becoming too concerned with material items. that practicality also gives you the ability to rationalize and heed caution. this gives you a reliability and an ability to lend a hand to your more risky friends. however, this can go towards the side of being prudish or overly cautious to the point where you’re not realizing your full potential. trust that the house you built will withstand anything, and if it doesn’t you have the ability to rebuild an even stronger one. 

AIR: gemini - libra - aquarius 

intellect, communication, perception, curiosity, idealism, objective

in the air tonight 

curiosity killed the cat, but not the air sign. through gemini’s thirst for knowledge, to the way libra shares ideas between opposing sides, to aquarius’ forward thinking nature. air signs share ideas, making you communicative as well as intelligent. air signs could be referred to as the “winds of change,” but is it a nice cool breeze on a hot summer day, or a howling, fierce wind in the middle of a tropical storm? it all depends on whether someone is on your good side or not. air signs have the stereotype of being air headed, but this just comes from the tendency to stay pretty surface level on topics. like air, air signs are hard to catch but can also bring a breath of fresh air. you are capable of moving people with the knowledge you deliver, springing them to action. air fills the space it occupies. no matter what container it’s in, it will bend to fit its new space. in the same way, air signs are capable of walking a mile in another’s shoes. you are idealistic and aim to create a better world. 

WATER: cancer - scorpio - pisces 

intuition, security, emotion, compassion, receptive, mystery

like a river 

water signs have a deep understanding of human emotion. cancer nurtures based on the emotions projecting from others, scorpio can see deep into a person’s soul, and pisces soaks up the emotional environments they’re in like a sponge. like a vast, deep ocean, water signs give off a mysterious vibe. water is fluid, needing a container to hold its shape, just as water signs need security. water signs use their intuition over fact-based means. you want to feel that something is the right answer, rather than being told that an answer is correct based on logic. you’re in tune with your environment, and driven by emotions. sure, this can mean you’re ultra-sensitive and moody, but it more so means that you make decisions based on how you or others feel rather than the facts presented in front of you. water can be refreshing, or it can be dangerous. a dangerous water sign is manipulative and sneaky. however, a refreshing water sign is compassionate and understanding.

Hi wht does having ruler of 2nd house in the 1st house indicate thanks

the second house is the house of possessions and finances. having the planetary ruler of your 2nd house in the first house indicates your personal finances being very important to you. from an early age, you understood the value of a dollar and the power that comes from having money in this world. there is usually an anxiety regarding money, whether you have enough, and just an overall feeling of needing to be financially secure to feel secure in yourself. you will make money through your natural talents and physicality. 

[classtrologyblog]

Hi! Can you please describe what type of careers I can do? Aquarius Sun in the 5th, Virgo Rising, Cancer Moon in the 10th, Gemini MC, Aquarius Mercury in the 5th (retrograde), Aries Mars in the 8th! Planets in the 10th: Jupiter, Saturn and True Node (Gemini)! Thanks! 💗

gemini midheavens need to stretch their mental and communication skills. gemini is a highly communicative sign, so networking is a great strength with gemini mc’s, which is valuable in any career! you want to constantly be learning and increasing your skill set. you have an endless curiosity, so it may be hard to nail down one specific path. you need a career that gives you variety or enough time off to explore hobbies outside of the workplace. also expect career changes, as you may one day find yourself becoming attracted to a completely different career. your aquarius sun is humanitarian and progressive in nature. aquarius is tied to science and technology, you want to see the human race continue to evolve. your virgo rising gives you a need to self-improve as well as improve the world around you. you will put your heart and soul into your work. aries mars gives you the passion and drive to propel you into success. you may be more fond of a career path that rewards you for smaller feats more frequently, instead of rewarding for massive projects spanning a long time period. aries is more interested in defeating short term goals and can get impatient with long ones. 

Let’s talk about that packed 10th house! First, your cancer moon in the 10th. cancer moons want to nurture others. your moon being in the 10th house indicates your emotions directly tying to your success in life. you’re ambitious, but may make emotional decisions over practical ones that could harm your career growth. a moon in the 10th (and this is even more prevalent for a moon in cancer), indicates working to serve the public in some way through moon-themed avenues (cooking, caregiving, etc). social status is very important to you. make sure you’re the one determining what is worthy; don’t fall into constantly comparing yourself to others and what they have. jupiter in the 10th is a good placement to have! but be careful to not rely on it too much. you will make many connections along the way in your career path, use them well. success will come to you, maybe a little too easy at times which could cause you to become lazy in your pursuit. having your saturn here as well may help you with that! saturn in the 10th indicates success later in life (meaning into your 30s). don’t feel rushed in your career. slow and steady wins the race. a gemini north node in the 10th indicates your higher sense of self being reached through your public persona and career. gemini north nodes must serve their community and develop their communication skills. 

OVERALL: I see a position in the public eye and serving to support the greater good. a 10th house stellium can indicate a path in politics. this could also be done through the medical field, business (maybe non profits), journalism, and entertainment. 

[classtrologyblog]

Looove your blog! It's refreshing to see so much positivity flowing from your posts. So, I was looking at my brother's chart and he has six planets in Scorpio: Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Jupiter and Pluto. He is Cancer Rising. Haha, it terrifies me to see so much Scorpio. :D Can you tell me more about this placements?

run! far away! just kidding. he could be lowkey psychic or something. just know, he knows all your secrets. you can’t pull one over on him. if he gives into that shadow side/is underdeveloped, he’s vindictive, cold, etc. an underdeveloped scorpio stellium can literally be a monster (good riddance to the one who just died, charles manson). however! scorpio is an awesome sign that can be used in a positive manner just as any other sign. scorpios are determined, focused, really great at investigative work. they’re intense in everything they do. extremely passionate individuals. scorpios will ride or die for you, but do not take advantage of that because the scorpio will never forgive you. 

be there for your brother! scorpio has themes of transformation and he may go through a lot of rough times in life. scorpios can tend to feel isolated and misunderstood. don’t let him isolate himself and make an effort to show interest in his interests. scorpios appreciate effort from other people.

I'm a Scorpio sun/Leo moon/Capricorn venus and I always fall for Gemini venus people and they always break my heart what do I do???

awww bb <3 

gemini venuses breaking hearts since… whenever the first geminis roamed the earth. gemini venuses are fun. they’re intellectual. they draw you in. since you’re a scorpio with a capricorn venus, love isn’t all fun and games. you require deep connections and commitment when it comes to long term relationships. gemini isn’t known for depth or commitment. gemini doesn’t like their relationships to become too routine, predictable, or comfortable. definitely not an excuse for the gemini to not be upfront about it. but geminis barely even know what they want! mutable signs are always changing paths. this is, ultimately, just a conflict about what you both look for in relationships. they could make a great fwb, but you require more from your long term partners. don’t settle for less because you think commitment and emotional depth went out of style with this tinder generation. it’s out there for you! don’t be afraid to ask for what you want, and to kick them to the curb when they’re not taking your needs into account. relationships are a give and take. 

[classtrologyblog]

is it possible to be attracted to someone who has the same sun sign as one of your other placements? like if someone has a scorpio moon or venus would you be more likely to be attracted to someone who's a scorpio sun?

well, anything is possible. it’s all personal preference but I would definitely say yes. traditionally, our venus sign indicates what kind of partner we would like. in an effort to dismantle the binary/heterocentric-ness of astrology, I don’t talk about theories like that. because, really, the traditional line of thought is that a man’s venus is supposed to represent what he would be attracted to in a woman. for women, their venus sign would show what is attractive about them to men. so, obviously, I don’t subscribe to that school of thought. but, yes, I definitely believe we look for similarities in those we choose to spend our time with. especially with signs like scorpio, where there tends to be this “no one understands me” feeling. so, my theory is, scorpios would have a deep understanding of each other that all of us non-scorpios would never be able to understand.

I've read through heaps of your asks and it looks like ALOT of people have aqua moons 😶😶😶 where are all they coming from 🤔🤔🤔

aqua moons are always looking for answers 

[classtrologyblog]

What will happen if the moon has many aspects?

it would depend on the aspects involved! too many hard aspects and it’s “badly aspected” meaning special work has to be put in to utilize the planet positively. a lot of aspects could greatly change how the planet expresses itself in the personality. so let’s say your moon is in cancer, but you don’t relate to those descriptions at all–this could be why!
