the moon has a considerable deal of power, since it is a luminary.
Venus is morally firm and can be generous to a fault. however she is also very particular about her likings (Saturn).
the moons intelligence, social and emotional especially, understands how to appeal to venus’ standards. Venus possesses a great deal of power in the form of blessings and in some cases status, the moon navigates this cleverly, utilizing the power of time and consistency.
It grasps Venus’ good relationship with Saturn (Chronos: time).
lunar blessings are to be understood as rather intellectual and flexible, reflecting the moon’s adaptability and watery essence.
the moon is fluctuating in nature, and very reminiscent of Neptune and its illusionistic nature, thus possessing the ability to embody whatever Venus needs, even on the long run.
loyalty, risk, pleasure, reliability: whatever Venus desires will be met by the moons theatrical talent.
only then the moon gains access to Venus’ treasures and love.
An exalted/nicely placed moon also holds power over the sun and its individuals.
The sun cannot control where his rays fall, it reaches the deserving and the undeserving of people. similar to Venus’ moral openhandedness, Venus attempts to treat everybody with integrity which can quickly backfire in a world home to deception and evil.
the moon here once again is at an advantage. while the sun sees the “bright side” of the living experience (see: sun card in tarot), the moon deals with the subconscious, hidden affairs that lie beneath the surface and require reading between the lines. something the suns generalized approach lacks.
hence why trust between these two luminaries is easily established and rarely questioned on the suns behalf.
the sun is rather secure and navigates life with an optimistic approach while also potentially missing out on important details and most importantly: TRUTHS.
the moon doesn’t encounter this problem due to its tendency to think constantly, especially in a pessimistic manner. it is due to this that they consider ALL scenarios, and not simply the “best case” ones. nevertheless, this can quickly turn sour for lunar individuals as it sparks neuroticism.
the moon and its people work beneath the surface and prosper when keeping things secret. lunar people should never boast and become predictable by being overly revealing for that will work against their auric field and their natural energy (which is lunar).
by working beneath the surface and never “outshining the master” (the sun), the moon cultivates its own glory as it is also considered a luminary like the sun. when done right, the sun won’t feel threatened and you’ll be spared of his burns.
the moon however, due to its perpetually unstable temperament, is not loyal by nature, unless there is a fair deal of Venusian influence present within the chart.
alongside the moon, there is another planet that displays incredible power due to its versatility. however this power is only strong in the presence of a strong lunar energy: mercury
the greatest seducers and people in power either have strongly lunar placements and most of them time a combination of these with mercurial energy.
this interplay of the moon card (mystery, emotions, secrets, subconscious) and the magician card (logic, capability, intelligence, communication etc) bestows the chart holder with an equilibrium of the emotional and logical intelligence, gracing them with great seduction skills. seduction as a concept comprises of lunar and mercurial intelligence.
when there is only a strong mercury influence at hand it can be the cause of neuroticism, insecurity and lack of emotional intelligence which is a crucial aspect of seduction.
in the case of a strong lunar presence without mercury, leads to delusion, turbulence of emotions and detachment from logic.
