So you know your Sun sign. The next step to getting to know your own unique astrological makeup is learning about your Moon sign. While the Sun takes about a month to move through each zodiac sign, the Moon changes signs roughly every two and a half days. This means that even if you were born three or four days after your BFF/coworker/enemy, you’ll have different Moon signs and totally different DNA.

In astrology, your Sun sign describes your core personality, and your Moon sign reveals your emotional inner self. Think of your Moon sign as the part of yourself that only your nearest and dearest get to see; the part of your personality that comes out when you feel comfortable and at home. And if your Moon sign is Aquarius, here’s what astrology says about you.

What does your Moon sign tell you about your personality?

Unlike your Sun sign, your Moon sign reveals everything that is hidden behind closed doors. You know, the parts of yourself that surface during emotional moments and situations. Your Moon sign represents how you feel, the deepest parts of yourself, and who you really are.

Why is your Moon sign so important in romantic compatibility?

When it comes to love and romance, understanding your Moon sign is everything! Your Moon sign describes your emotional inner world, and therefore, it says so much about how you'll connect with someone romantically. It's even more important than your Sun sign when it comes to romantic compatibility, because romance is all about ~feelings~.

Aquarius Moon Personality Traits

Aquarius is something of a contradiction of a sign. It’s known as the most humanitarian sign of the zodiac, and as an Aquarius Moon, you can get a lot of fulfillment out of dedicating yourself to the greater good and the care of your community. At the same time, Aquarius is known as a solitary sign; you need your independence and others might even think you’re a bit closed-off or standoffish. Aquarius is sometimes called “the rebel with a cause,” and that’s you to a T: You’re passionate about making the world a better place, but you would like to choose the way to do it yourself.

Aquarius Moon Compatibility

When it comes to romance, you need someone to match your freak. You’re unlike anyone else, and others find you hard to understand and even intimidating. No matter their Moon sign, your partner needs to embrace your eccentricities, even if they don’t totally understand them.

You’re also looking for a partner who shares your passion, and hopefully your creativity, too. You care deeply about making the world a better place, and your ideal partner is someone who’ll happily plan a protest with you.

The Best Matches for Aquarius Moon

Aquarius Moon and Gemini Moon

You have an instant intellectual bond with fellow air sign Gemini Moon. You’re both passionate and curious, and together, you can explore your niche interests to your heart’s content. Gemini brings out your more social side, while your integrity can rub off on flighty Gemini.

Aquarius Moon and Libra Moon

Another air sign, Libra Moon, speaks to your passion for people. Libra Moon is more of a social butterfly, while you take a big-picture, planning, even community organizing approach. Together, you cover both the big and small picture of human interaction. You provide the stability that Libra Moon craves, while Libra Moon can help you have more fun.

Aquarius Moon and Aquarius Moon

No one *gets* you like another Aquarius Moon! Even if your Sun signs are totally different—like, Aquarius Sun and Leo Sun—your shared Moon signs that you can basically read each other’s minds and emotions. You speak the same emotional language and have similar values. When you team up, you’re a perfect pair.

Aquarius Moon and Sagittarius Moon

Air and fire signs tend to pair well together, and that’s definitely true for Sagittarius Moon and Aquarius Moon. Like you, Sagittarius Moon is all about the big picture, and is endlessly intellectually curious. Sagittarius Moon is a “citizen of the world,” thinking about big issues on a global scale. Together, you can figure out how to solve them.

Aquarius Moon and Leo Moon

Another fire sign, Leo Moon, shares your creativity and your care for others. Leo Moon loves the spotlight, balancing out your need for solitude. Leo is all about fun, too, which can help you loosen up and let go from time to time.

The Worst Matches for Aquarius Moon

Aquarius Moon and Taurus Moon

Like you, Taurus Moon is a fixed sign—and as fixed signs, you’re both incredibly stubborn. And unlike fixed sign Leo Moon, you and Taurus Moon often find yourself butting heads. Your POVs are just so different that you find it hard to see eye-to-eye, and you’re both too stubborn to compromise.

Aquarius Moon and Virgo Moon

You and Virgo Moon are just about as different as can be. You're an air sign while Virgo Moon is an earth sign, two elements that don't get along well. You're also a fixed sign while Virgo is a mutable sign. You're big-picture while Virgo is all about the details, and you're both likely to be critical of the other.

Aquarius Moon and Scorpio Moon

The same goes for another fixed sign, Scorpio Moon. You’re both infamously stubborn and refuse to try to see each other’s POV and work together to find a compromise. Emotional, intuitive Scorpio Moon often makes decisions that you just can’t understand, while Scorpio Moon doesn’t get your choices, either.

Aquarius Moon and Cancer Moon

You also butt heads with water sign Cancer Moon. Cancer Moon just seems emotional and irrational to your logical self, and their homebody nature goes against your desire to see the world. With different elements and different modalities, you’re different in every way.

So-So Matches for Aquarius Moon

Aquarius Moon and Aries Moon

Air signs and fire signs tend to get along well, but you don't have as much in common with Aries Moon as you do with Leo Moon or Sagittarius Moon. Additionally, Aries Moon’s hotheaded nature goes contrary to your calm, cool, and collected presentation.

Aquarius Moon and Capricorn Moon

On the other hand, air signs and earth signs typically don’t get along well, but you and Capricorn Moon might find a way to work well together, even if you don’t 100% understand each other. You admire Capricorn Moon’s ambition and their desire to get sh*t done, while Capricorn Moon respects your creativity and unique POV.

Aquarius Moon and Pisces Moon

Similarly, air signs and water signs are an atypical match. However, Pisces Moon’s creative mind is a match for yours. Additionally, you two are side-by-side in the zodiac, which means you have a unique, playful relationship that can lead to a strong friendship or in some cases, a romance.
