Moon, as a planet in the horoscope, plays the most important in the most difficult times. Suppose someone has temporary job loss, business loss, a relationship issue, or diseases, and your Moon (mind, temperament, and inner strength) is not good. In that case, you are likely to feel directionless/add to your miseries. One can handle the worst situations if your mind, your thought process, and your inner instincts are in your control. But if you have a weak Moon, you tend to depend on what others say, and your decisions and actions are likely to be influenced by others rather than using your own wisdom. This can be your relationship with women, eating habits, sleeping habits, clothes you wear, and many similar personal decisions. Now that is the biggest issue with a poor moon position in your chart. If Sun bestows power and authority, Moon governs your mind and thought process to best use this power and authority. Moon represents what you are intrinsically – means yourself in the true sense.
The importance of Moon in a birth chart is well understood from the ancient times when Sages used to focus on Surya Kundli and Chandra Kundli along with the main Janam Kundli. You need authority, power, mental and physical health, but also a balanced psychological mind. That is what is bestowed to you by Moon.
Role of Moon in birth chart
The role of Moon in a horoscope starts from a very early age in your life. Moon in the birth chart signifies many things like intelligence, diseases, general happiness, heart, and women in your life (apart from Venus) that care for you. Importance of Moon in birth chart is also to show the nourishment you get at the beginning of your life. In fact, the role of Moon in birth chart and its placement is a total summary of all your good and bad deeds of your previous birth(s).
Now, do not go by emotions or sentiments but try to understand some effects of the weak/good position of Moon in birth chart.
1. What if you have an unstable mind, lack of concentration power, temperament is too emotional, low immunity, and above all, lack of confidence and an image of a dithering person to the outside world? You feel depressed and always tense. You don’t do it intentionally, but a weak Moon in your first house makes you like this.
2. Sometimes, your decisions are more dominated by your mother, other females, or your overall family members. You don’t have good relations with them: Moon in your fourth house is troubling you.
3. A weak/debilitated Moon in the 3rd and 11th house can have a question mark on your relationship with siblings. You may not have very cordial relations with them or may make major decisions under their influence.
4. The same way, a weak Moon in the 10th house can dither you at the workplace in handling professional matters, and sometimes others influence your decisions in your professional life.
5. Are you not able to grasp the point of intelligence?
6. Do you not have a good sleep or general happiness in your life?
7. Are you not able to make impartial decisions?
8. Can you not judge the partial or impartial attitude or actions/decisions of others on you in your life?
9. A good placement of Moon helps a person retain a good facial look throughout life until a late age.
