Thinking about Sylus who loves a particular kind of gentle skinship: pressing his nose on your skin.
Waiting in line for your sudden milk tea craving and he’s behind you nosing into your hair (he claims it makes the waiting better)
You’re preparing some food on the counter and he’s there behind you pressing his nose on your shoulders as he watches your hands move
You just wanna feed him some fries but he’s grabbing your wrist to press his nose there then playfully nip the side of your thumb instead of the fries
When he’s in a bad mood, just holding you and pressing his nose on your chest and he’s instantly cooled down
You wear an off-shoulder top and you bet he’s gonna be perching his nose there as if he’s Mephisto
Or nuzzling into the crook of your neck when he wants a cuddle
Or catching you right after a shower and he’s running his nose down your arm and giving little pecks
Maybe it’s the feel of your skin, maybe it’s your scent he wants to inhale all the time
Maybe it’s his dragon’s way of showing affection
You’re lying down on one side relaxing and he’d playfully rub his nose on your waist to tickle you and hear you laugh
And when your scent changes he knows you’re ovulating, it’s sweeter he says, with that hungry look in his eyes, because his very favorite place to bury his nose in is—
Wait am i ovulating? (ignores my empty period tracking app, opens Lads instead to consult his notes)
How the Moon in Houses Affects Your Mood and Wellbeing
Have you ever wondered what brings you a good mood? Of course, it depends on many factors: most often, external ones. But that’s not always the case. A good mood often comes from within, regardless of outside circumstances.
This is where astrology comes to the rescue again, showing us which internal buttons we need to press to noticeably improve our emotional state. So, what in astrology is responsible for this?
It’s the Moon. The Moon is our inner compass: all our problems and joys come from the heart, from our emotions, which means it plays the leading role here. Any internal fluctuations will immediately affect your state of being, and therefore your mood.
So, how can we bring our emotions into balance and lift our spirits?
Moon in the 1st house
People with the Moon in the first house are like emotional open books: their mood is visible in their face, posture, voice, even the way they walk. That’s why it’s especially important for them to learn how to take care of their emotional state.
One of the best ways to lift their mood is through simple physical self-care. Taking a shower, changing clothes, doing their hair, putting on a little cream, wearing something they like: these aren’t just routines, they’re a way to reconnect with themselves. Their body reacts strongly to emotions, so comfort, rest, warmth, good food and sleep all play a big role in how they feel.
It’s also really important for them to express what they feel. Holding things inside only makes it worse. Talking to someone, writing in a journal, crying, drawing, dancing: anything that lets the feelings come out can be incredibly healing.
Sometimes they just need to be alone. The Moon is all about the inner world, and with it in the first house, they can easily get overwhelmed by other people’s emotions and expectations. Stepping back from noise, turning off their phone, taking a break from social media: even a short pause can bring relief.
What helps most is being in a space where they can be totally themselves. These people often feel like they’re being watched or judged, and it’s exhausting. Being around someone who lets them just “be”: messy, quiet, sensitive, honest - can be deeply grounding.
And strangely enough, gentle caring for others can also lift their spirits. Not in a self-sacrificing way, but when it comes from the heart: cooking for someone, petting a cat, watering plants - it gives them a sense of meaning and connection.
Quick mood reset? Go outside, change your environment, breathe fresh air, drink some water, hug someone (or yourself), and name what you’re feeling. That alone can make a world of difference.
Moon in the 2nd house
People with the Moon in the second house feel safest and most grounded when there’s stability around them: emotionally, physically, and financially. Their mood is closely tied to their sense of security and comfort. When things feel uncertain or chaotic, their emotions can get shaky too, even if nothing dramatic is happening on the surface.
One of the simplest ways for them to feel better is to reconnect with what makes them feel secure. That might be organizing their space, looking at their finances, cooking a comforting meal, or just knowing they have what they need for today. It’s not about luxury: it’s about knowing they’re taken care of. Even something like making a to-do list or checking things off can help calm their nervous system.
Touch, texture, and the senses also play a big role. Soft blankets, warm drinks, a cozy corner, nice smells, calm music: all of this works wonders for someone with the Moon in the second. They need to feel physically safe and emotionally “held,” even if just by their environment.
Creating something with their hands: cooking, painting, building, planting can help them feel present and valuable. These people often connect emotional stability with a sense of being productive or useful. When they create or take care of something real and tangible, it brings them back to themselves.
They also feel better when they’re not rushed. Slow mornings, slow meals, slow decisions: the more grounded the rhythm, the more settled they feel. Rushing or pressure can really throw them off.
And most importantly: they need to feel worthy. When they start doubting their value or comparing themselves to others, their emotional world can crumble quietly. But when they remind themselves of what they bring to the table: their kindness, loyalty, care, effort - their mood naturally stabilizes.
To reset their emotional state: simplify something, make a cozy space, do one small thing that makes them feel capable, and let themselves slow down. That’s usually all it takes to feel a little better.
Moon in the 3rd house
People with the Moon in the third house feel better when they can connect: through words, thoughts, and simple everyday exchanges. Their emotions are closely tied to how they process the world mentally, and how freely they can express what’s going on inside. If they feel stuck, unheard, or mentally overloaded, their mood tends to drop quickly.
Talking things out is one of the most healing tools for them. It doesn’t have to be deep: even chatting with a friend, texting someone, journaling, or making a voice note can help clear emotional fog. They often don’t even know how they feel until they put it into words. Once they do, things start to make sense again.
They also feel emotionally better when they’re learning or absorbing something interesting. A new podcast, a good article, a random deep dive into a topic they like: it gives their mind something to focus on, and that mental stimulation helps balance their emotions.
Movement helps too: especially short walks, quick errands, or even just stepping outside for some air. The third house is all about motion and interaction, so changing the scenery or doing something simple and active can shift their energy fast.
They usually feel more stable when they stay mentally organized. Writing a list, planning their day, or even cleaning up their notes or digital space can give them a surprising sense of emotional relief.
And since their mood is often influenced by the people around them, it’s important that they have regular contact with someone who understands them. Not deep therapy-style talks: just real, honest communication. Being around people who talk “their language” emotionally and intellectually is grounding for them.
When they feel low, the best thing they can do is express something: talk, write, read, move, or ask a question. A little mental or verbal flow goes a long way in helping them feel lighter and more connected to themselves.
Moon in the 4th house
People with the Moon in the fourth house feel best when they feel safe, nurtured, and emotionally anchored. Their inner world is deep, private, and often very nostalgic: like an emotional landscape that they carry inside. When things get stressful or overwhelming, their instinct is to retreat inward, to their personal space or their memories, just to find some peace.
For them, mood and well-being are closely tied to their home environment. If their space feels messy, chaotic, or cold, it can quietly chip away at their sense of stability. But if they take time to make their surroundings feel warm, soft, and personal: even with just a candle, blanket, or photo: their energy starts to return.
They’re usually very sensitive to the emotional atmosphere around them, especially at home. If someone they live with is upset, or if there’s tension in the air, they can feel it in their body. That’s why it’s important for them to create emotional boundaries and learn how to protect their own peace.
They also feel much better when they allow themselves to rest: real rest, not just scrolling on their phone. Curling up in bed, watching a comforting show, cooking something slow, or just letting themselves cry without judgment: that’s how they reset emotionally.
Memories and family play a big role in their emotional state, whether they realize it or not. Sometimes a bad mood is really a triggered memory. But the flip side is, they can also lift their spirits through familiar things: old music, childhood meals, family traditions, or just being around someone who feels like home.
More than anything, they need to feel held: emotionally, physically, energetically. That might mean being with someone who gives them comfort, or it might mean holding themselves gently during rough moments. Their healing starts when they stop pushing and allow themselves to feel safe again.
To improve their mood, the best thing they can do is slow down, go inward, create comfort, and reconnect with whatever makes them feel emotionally at home.
Moon in the 5th house
People with the Moon in the fifth house feel better when they can express themselves freely and emotionally: whether that’s through creativity, romance, humor, or just playfulness. Their mood is closely tied to whether they feel seen and appreciated for who they truly are, not just for what they do.
They thrive when they allow themselves to have fun: not in a forced way, but in a genuine, childlike, spontaneous way. Watching a favorite movie, dancing in the kitchen, painting, singing badly, flirting, laughing until they cry: these aren’t distractions, they’re medicine. When they suppress this kind of joyful expression, their emotional world can feel heavy and dull.
They also often have a strong emotional connection to creativity - not just making art, but creating anything: ideas, stories, aesthetics, vibes. Making something that comes from the heart helps them feel alive and emotionally fulfilled.
Romantic energy is important too: not necessarily being in a relationship, but feeling desired, admired, or simply special. Compliments, a little attention, a spark of flirtation: these things can lift their mood in ways even they might not fully understand.
They’re very emotionally responsive to how they’re received by others. When they feel ignored or creatively blocked, their confidence and emotional energy can drop. That’s why it’s so important for them to give themselves permission to shine, even if no one’s watching.
They also feel better when they give love: whether to a person, a pet, a creative project, or even a plant. Sharing warmth and affection re-centers them emotionally.
And when they’re feeling low, the best medicine is often something playful, expressive, or beautiful. A little spark of joy, even five minutes of dancing, coloring, or goofing around can shift their entire emotional state. When they reconnect with their inner light, everything else softens.
Moon in the 6th house
People with the Moon in the sixth house feel emotionally better when life feels manageable, clean, and in order. Their mood is closely tied to their daily rhythm: how their body feels, how much they’ve accomplished, and whether they’ve taken care of the little things. When their routine is chaotic or their health is out of balance, their emotions can easily spiral, even if everything seems fine on the outside.
One of the fastest ways for them to feel better is to do something small but productive: make the bed, organize a drawer, reply to that one email, drink a glass of water. These tiny acts of care give them a sense of control, which helps ground their emotions.
They also feel better when they’re taking care of their body. Not in a perfectionistic way, just the basics: enough sleep, warm food, gentle movement, maybe even stretching or going for a walk. Their emotional state is deeply connected to how their body feels, so any physical discomfort or neglect tends to affect their mood more than they realize.
Helping others can also lift them up: but only if it comes from a place of balance, not overgiving. Supporting a friend, offering advice, doing something useful can give them a sense of purpose and soothe their nerves.
They tend to be emotionally sensitive to clutter, mess, or overwhelm in their space or schedule. Even if they seem calm, too much disorganization can make them feel emotionally unsafe. That’s why simple routines and clear plans are so comforting: they don’t need to do everything perfectly, they just need to feel like life is flowing.
And most importantly, they need to feel appreciated for their efforts, even the quiet, invisible ones. A simple “thank you” can mean the world to them. And when they forget to thank themselves, their inner critic takes over.
To shift their mood, the best medicine is something grounded and tangible: clean up one small area, take care of their body, drink something warm, cross something off a list. Their emotions often find peace through gentle structure and simple acts of care.
Moon in the 7th house
People with the Moon in the seventh house feel emotionally balanced when their relationships feel harmonious, safe, and emotionally reciprocal. Their mood is deeply connected to how the people around them treat them, especially close one-on-one connections. When there’s tension, distance, or emotional coldness in a relationship, they feel it like a storm inside, even if they try to hide it.
They often crave emotional reflection: they feel most understood when someone truly sees them, listens with empathy, and responds with care. Just one warm conversation or kind gesture from someone close can completely shift their emotional state.
Because they’re so tuned in to others, they may sometimes neglect their own emotional needs while focusing on maintaining peace or keeping others happy. This can leave them feeling empty or unappreciated. Learning to ask, “What do I need right now?” is a powerful practice for them.
They feel better when they’re connected to someone emotionally, even through small daily moments: a shared meal, a loving message, a laugh, a hug. Simple relational rituals ground them. Even if they’re single, having one emotionally safe and responsive person (a friend, family member, pet) makes a huge difference.
They may also carry emotional sensitivity to rejection or disapproval. Conflict, misunderstandings, or feeling left out can hit hard, not because they’re weak, but because relationships are where their heart lives.
To feel better, they often need emotional mirroring: to be heard, seen, and supported. But they also need to practice giving that to themselves: sitting down, placing a hand on their heart, and reminding themselves, “I’m here. I see how I feel. It’s valid.” That can be just as healing as hearing it from someone else.
When their emotions are off, the most soothing thing is often connection: a meaningful talk, a small gesture of love, or even journaling as a dialogue with their inner self. Feeling emotionally accompanied by others or by themselves is what truly restores them.
Moon in the 8th house
People with the Moon in the eighth house experience emotions with deep intensity, often more than they let others see. Their mood is tied to things that go far beneath the surface: trust, emotional honesty, intimacy, vulnerability, and the invisible undercurrents in relationships. Even small interactions can affect them on a profound level, and they often feel what’s going on before they can explain it.
They may not always show it, but they’re deeply sensitive to emotional undercurrents, secrets, power dynamics, and unspoken truths. When something feels “off” or unsafe, even subtly: it can throw off their whole emotional state. That’s why inner peace for them often starts with emotional honesty, both with themselves and others.
To feel better, they usually need time alone to process. Sitting with their feelings, journaling, being in silence, even crying in private: all of this helps them release what they’ve absorbed. They carry things deeply, and they often need space to untangle what’s theirs from what’s not.
Emotional intimacy is healing for them. When someone they trust sees them fully: raw, messy, complex and still stays, that experience has the power to calm and transform them. But trust doesn’t come easily, and they may prefer solitude over fake connection.
They’re also emotionally affected by themes of loss, endings, and transformation. Their mood might shift with the phases of life, or after intense emotional experiences but they often come out stronger, wiser, and more in tune with their truth.
To ground themselves, they benefit from rituals of release: journaling and burning the page, taking a hot bath after a hard day, cleaning out an emotional “closet.” Letting go is their medicine.
They also feel better when they channel their depth into something meaningful: deep conversations, therapy, creative work, spiritual practice, even researching taboo or hidden subjects. They find comfort in the raw truth not sugarcoating.
When their mood dips, the best thing they can do is go deep, not avoid the feeling, but sit with it, understand it, and slowly let it pass through. Their emotional power lies in transformation and their healing starts the moment they stop pretending everything is fine.
Moon in the 9th house
People with the Moon in the ninth house feel emotionally uplifted when they can expand, explore, and believe in something bigger than themselves. Their mood is often tied to a sense of meaning, purpose, and freedom - emotional lows tend to come when life feels too small, routine, or disconnected from a deeper truth.
They feel better when they’re learning something inspiring: reading about other cultures, diving into philosophy or spirituality, watching a documentary, listening to a thought-provoking podcast. New ideas feed their soul and bring emotional clarity.
Travel, even short or symbolic is often deeply healing. A walk in a new neighborhood, a spontaneous trip, a visit to a museum or even just mentally “escaping” into a book or film can completely shift their energy. They need room to breathe emotionally, and too much restriction, whether physical or mental, can make them feel emotionally trapped.
They often process feelings through a higher lens: asking “what does this mean?”, “what am I learning from this?”, or “how is this shaping my beliefs?” helps them feel grounded. They’re not always comfortable with emotional messiness, so stepping back and seeing the bigger picture helps them feel safer and more in control.
They also feel better when they connect with something spiritual, philosophical, or idealistic: whether it’s meditation, prayer, astrology, journaling, or just looking at the stars and remembering that life is more than today’s problems.
When their mood dips, the worst thing they can do is stay stuck in smallness or cynicism. What usually helps is a shift in perspective: learning, moving, dreaming, or simply talking to someone who reminds them that life is wide, mysterious, and full of possibilities.
Their emotional healing comes from reconnecting with hope, wonder, and trust in life. Once they remember that there’s more to explore and understand, their mood gently rises like a balloon released back into open skies.
Moon in the 10th house
People with the Moon in the tenth house feel emotionally steady when they feel respected, purposeful, and seen as someone who contributes something meaningful. Their mood is often connected to their sense of achievement and how others perceive them, especially in professional or public settings. When they feel like they’re failing, not doing enough, or being judged unfairly, their emotions can quietly crash, even if they look perfectly composed on the outside.
These are people who often carry emotional responsibility, for others, for the family, for the “image” they feel they must uphold. But they sometimes forget that they, too, need care, softness, and moments where they don’t have to “hold it all together.”
To feel better, they often need to reconnect with their own inner sense of worth, not just what they’ve accomplished or how much they’ve helped, but who they are underneath the role. They benefit from moments where they can step out of “doing mode” and simply be, even if just for a little while.
That said, structure and small accomplishments often boost their mood. Finishing a task, planning their week, organizing their workspace: all these things give them emotional grounding. They feel safest when life has direction.
They’re also soothed by being recognized for their efforts. A kind word, a thank-you, a sign that someone notices what they’ve been quietly carrying: these things go deep. And when that recognition doesn’t come, it’s important that they give it to themselves, instead of pushing harder to “prove” their value.
Because this placement links emotions with visibility, they can feel especially vulnerable when exposed to public judgment or pressure. Learning to create emotional boundaries between their private feelings and public life is essential for their well-being.
When they’re emotionally off balance, what helps most is pausing, softening the pressure on themselves, and reconnecting with their deeper purpose, not the external goals, but the heart behind them. Once they remember why they care and allow themselves to rest without guilt, their emotional world starts to stabilize again.
Moon in the 11th house
People with the Moon in the eleventh house feel emotionally nourished when they’re part of something bigger: a group, a cause, a community, a shared dream. Their mood is deeply tied to connection, belonging, and hope for the future. When they feel isolated, excluded, or like their ideals don’t matter, their emotional state can quietly collapse.
These are people who often carry the emotions of the collective. They’re tuned in to what’s happening around them: socially, culturally, globally - and it can both inspire them and overwhelm them. That’s why it’s so important for them to have spaces where they can connect with like-minded souls and feel that they’re not alone in how they feel or think.
To feel better, they often need to talk to someone who “gets it”, not necessarily someone close, but someone who shares their vision or understands their values. A good group chat, a supportive online space, or even a deep conversation with a kind stranger can lift their spirits almost instantly.
They also feel emotionally lighter when they’re contributing: offering ideas, support, advice, or energy to something that matters. When they feel useful to others in a genuine way, it feeds their heart.
At the same time, they can be sensitive to disappointment in people, especially friends or communities they’ve trusted. When this happens, they may shut down emotionally or become detached. It’s important that they allow themselves to grieve the letdown instead of pretending it doesn’t matter.
They feel better when they give themselves permission to dream big again, to make vision boards, plan future projects, imagine a better version of life. Hope is an emotional anchor for them.
And even though they care deeply about others, they need to remember to check in with themselves: How am I feeling, not just how is everyone else? Their healing starts when they reconnect with their own emotional rhythm, not just the energy of the group.
To shift their mood, the best medicine is often connection with others who inspire them, and space to dream without limits. A spark of shared hope can do wonders for their emotional world.
Moon in the 12th house
People with the Moon in the twelfth house feel everything: deeply, subtly, and often unconsciously. Their emotional world is like the ocean: vast, mysterious, and sometimes hard to explain. They may not always know why they feel a certain way, but the feelings are real, and they run deep. That’s why emotional clarity and peace can take time for them, and that’s okay.
They tend to absorb emotions from their surroundings like a sponge. A stranger’s sad eyes, a tense silence in a room, a scene from a film: all of it can linger inside them for hours or days. That’s why they need regular time alone, not to disconnect from the world, but to return to themselves.
They often feel better after sleep, dreams, meditation, music, or quiet reflection. Their emotional body responds best to stillness, beauty, and gentle atmospheres. When life gets too loud or too sharp, they can feel emotionally lost or invisible.
Sometimes their mood drops for reasons they can’t pinpoint, a kind of emotional fog or melancholy. This isn’t weakness; it’s a natural part of their emotional rhythm. What helps is not fighting it, but moving with it - letting themselves rest, daydream, cry, or create something soft and private.
Art, poetry, film, photography, prayer, fantasy: these are not just hobbies for them; they’re emotional lifelines. They help translate what can’t be put into words and offer a safe outlet for all that’s felt but unspoken.
Helping others can also lift their mood, especially when done quietly, compassionately, behind the scenes. These people often have a natural gift for healing, and when they use it gently, without draining themselves, it gives them meaning and emotional renewal.
To feel better, they don’t need to explain or fix everything. They just need space, softness, and a way to reconnect with their inner world, whether that’s through journaling, dreaming, silence, or simply breathing deeply and letting go. Their healing begins the moment they stop hiding from their feelings and let them flow like water.
