Before we can really get into the signs, we need to first learn about the planets. Most people think that you only have one sign, which is why most people don’t believe in astrology. You actually have more than just your sun sign, which is the one that everyone knows. The sun sign is the most common because it is the only sign that is calculated by your birthday, however it is not the most important and might not even be the sign that you relate to the most. You have a sign for every planet, the moon, and even some asteroids. All of them mean different things in relation to your natal chart, which calculates all of your sign placements for you. Let’s explore a little more each of the planets and how they affect you:

Sun: Your sun sign affects how you think. It is your outermost personality, your conscious, your ego, and the sign that people see once they start to get to know you. The sun rules Leo.

Moon: Your moon sign affects how you feel, and your innermost emotions. This is the you that is only seen by your close friends and family. It’s your subconscious, and your most private self. The moon rules Cancer.
