Soul Planet - Moon
In the sky, Moon is positioned at the highest degree in one of the 12 zodiac constellations, over the place where you were born at the time of your birth. It has a significant influence on you and it shows your true talents, capabilities for growth and progress in this life. It identifies which qualities you need to work on within yourself in order for you to be able to make a quantum leap in this life and reach a new level of development.
Moon is a very sensitive and emotional ‘planet.’ That is why Moon people are impacted significantly by the lunar cycles, new moons, full moons, eclipses. During these times insomnia, worrying, uneasy thoughts and fears might surface up. If people with the Soul Planet Moon practice any mind quieting exercises, they tend to develop very strong intuition and find themselves at the right place at the right moment throughout life. Often they become professional psychologists or take on a role of an informal psychologist because of their ability to feel people. But if the Moon is not harmonious in a person’s life, then these psychologists cry with every patient visit, absorbing too much of others around them and suffering as a result.
Lunar energy is very soft maternal energy, a sense of taking care of kids, the desire to feed and comfort everybody. The better a person’s relationship is with their mother, the more he/she is at peace inside and the better his/her relationship is with own children. Worried mind – is a source of many problems, spun up fears, attachments and even depressions.
It is both hard and easy to work with one’s Soul Planet. Some people try and fail to harmonize their Soul Planet across multiple lifetimes. Bringing awareness to daily emotions and how you react to events/triggers will reduce the amount of life situations that Universe will throw at you. Working with your Soul Planet is like preemptively taking life tests to demonstrate growth and, eventually, proficiency.
You know you have a harmonious relationship with the Moon if you are:
Happy and balanced inside – Moon’s energy is calm, flowing, soft and serene. Hence a person with a harmonious Moon reacts to life calmly and possesses the inner feeling of happiness and satisfaction. The aura of such a person adds a bit of softness and comfort to everything around them. When you find yourself around such people you don’t want to run anywhere and your worries and anxiety seem to disappear just by being in their presence.
Friendly – Moon is the only ‘planet’ in Vedic astrology that is friendly to all other planets. She does not have enemies. That is why a harmonious Moon rewards us with the same trait. It’s this peaceful friendliness towards everything that is living.
Balanced emotionally – when a Moon is not harmonious, a person might explode in emotional reactions or, conversely, be emotionally constrained and not able to understand or express what he/she is feeling. When our Moon is harmonized, our emotional sphere is balanced, our emotions are conscious and measured.
Internally satisfied – as Beyonce puts it: “Money can’t make me happy and a fella can’t make me fancy,” we often forget that internal happiness is not controlled by outside factors, but rather is dictated by the state of our mind. Moon is exactly that ‘planet’ that gifts us with inner happiness and satisfaction when we live in a harmonious relationship with her.
Open and capable of taking care of others – Moon’s energy is maternal caregiving energy. Like a mother who intuitively knows when her baby is hungry or full, cold or hot, and just the right thing to do to make him more comfortable, a person with a harmonious Moon is always ready to take care of others by sensing just what to do without making it feel intrusive or invading. This care is always natural, comforting and soothing.
Ways to harmonize your Moon:
Observe the Moon cycle. On days of new moon, full moon and eclipses – make it a point to rest and relax more.
Practice yoga. Especially focusing on balance poses.
Take water treatments – baths, long showers, water SPAs, swimming in pools, rivers, lakes, seas and oceans.
Listen to calming music.
Express creativity through your favorite form of art.
Drink a lot of water (no less than 2.5 liters).
Meditate. It can be as simple as calmly looking at a water surface for 15 minutes (it could also be a picture or a screen saver with water in it).
Do the dishes (water) with a smile, imagining that your are cleaning your karma in the process.
Check in with yourself several times a day and bring back your consciousness back to here and now.
Develop the right side of the brain. Attend drawing classes for development of the right side of the brain.
Cook and feed relatives, friends, co-workers.
Participate in charitable programs related to childhood, motherhood or feeding others.
