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.
In plain words
The Moon stands for your feelings and needs. In Aries, that works in an Aries way: quick, brave and impatient. You act first and think about it later.
