Sun Conjunct Moon: There is a tendency to be somewhat one-dimensional since your personality and emotions have the same basic traits (unless the conjunction falls at the end of one sign and the beginning of another.) Depending on the sign, there can be extremes in temperament due to the changeability of the Moon. You tend to be one-sided in your outlook and lack adaptability. All your energies and your emotional impulsiveness are usually concentrated in one area that you give your all. You can be self-willed and driving but you keep personal contacts at a distance. There is a strong identification of your feelings with your will, often making it difficult to take an objective look at yourself. You tend to form deep-rooted habits. If the Sun is stronger than the Moon, your health tends to suffer since your need for physical stimuli overrides the nurturing instincts of the Moon. The sign(s) and house(s) in which this conjunction occurs will play an important role in your life and will bring new experiences. The interaction between you, your spouse and your children is very active and creative.

Sun Trine Moon: This indicates harmony between the inner and the outer selves, between the will and automatic emotional responses, between the conscious and the unconscious selves. There is a good balance between the masculine and feminine parts of your nature. You're attractive to the opposite sex. Your good health, success and harmony are earned from the past. You're popular, tranquil, independent, self-confident, stable, happy, self-reliant and optimistic. You may lack ambition since you prefer peace and quiet over active participation, but you can usually achieve what you want without too much effort, which may only increase your lack of ambition. This may also lead you to be apathetic when you should assert yourself. You're fond of children and get along well with them. You get along with your family and parents unless there are major afflictions to the Sun and/or the Moon or in the fourth or tenth houses.

Sun Square Moon: Conflict between ego and your emotions may be expressed through your personality, health or conflicts between you and your parents or spouse. There may be an above average generation gap with both the preceding and following generations. Trouble with your partner may lead to financial hardship or divorce. There may be contention between the domestic and professional aspects of your life. Early family conditions may delay the ability to understand and get along with the opposite sex. You tend to blame your parents, but the trouble lies in sub-conscious patterns. You're your own worst enemy. Your health suffers if you don't resolve your conflicts. Reconcile your male and female sides.

Sun Sextile Moon: This aspect indicates harmony between your conscious and unconscious mind, your inner and outer selves. This harmony, along with your good health and success, is earned from the past. You're independent, self-confident, self-reliant, popular, happy and stable. You're able to communicate easily with and be friends with the opposite sex. You're well thought of by other people in general. This aspect bodes well for marriage and friendship. Your relationships with other family members are good and you maintain close ties with them. You know how to be a good parent almost instinctively. You're at peace with yourself. You may lack ambition since you like peace and quiet more than active participation, but this is less likely if the Sun is stronger than the Moon. You can be apathetic in circumstances where you should assert yourself. Success comes fairly easily.

Sun Inconjunct Moon: There is a conflict in your personality that is indicated by the houses of the Sun and the Moon. There is an above average generation gap between you and your children and/or between you and your parents. At times, you may be snobbish or overbearing. Your health could suffer if you have too many irons in the fire. If you insist on looking at your partner through rose-colored glasses, you may suffer rejection(s). You must make some adjustment in the way you deal with your conscious will and emotional needs. This aspect can act as a motivation to achieve outer success to compensate for what you see as personal failures.

Sun Opposite Moon: There is a conflict in your personality that must be resolved: often what you feel you should do and what you want to do are contradictory. There can also be contention in your professional and domestic lives or between your parents. Trouble with your partner may cause a divorce and/or financial problems. There is acute discord between the male and female parts of your soul. There's usually stress when interacting with the opposite sex. The generation gap between you and your parents and/or your children is above average. You have difficulty as a parent due to bad experiences in your early childhood. Energy levels fluctuate erratically. If you don't resolve your inner conflicts and achieve spiritual union, any union you enter into will have problems and your health may suffer. At times, you can be arrogant and overbearing. This aspect can motivate you to achieve outer success to compensate for what you see as inner failures. Do not undertake a major project without knowledge of all it entails. Any planet square to both the Sun and the Moon is where you should focus your greatest effort to transform and overcome.
