Moon in Aries

The Moon in Aries needs to act on what it feels, immediately. Emotional reactions are fast, hot and over quickly; the Aries Moon does not brood, it responds. Comfort comes from independence and from having something to push against. There is impatience with other people's processing time and a real courage in facing feeling head-on. The work is learning that not every feeling needs an action, and that waiting is not weakness.
