Moon
The Moon, both historically in Western astrology and currently in Indian astrology, has been considered the most
important planet in the horoscope. The Romans, for instance, considered Emperor Claudius to be a Capricorn
because his Moon was in that sign, although he was born in early August, and we would have called him a Leo.
The Moon represents the soul, including the pre-natal
phase, as well as that part of consciousness which
begins at birth and continues throughout life. The term
pre-natal can refer not only to the nine month period
spent in utero, but includes those past lives which have a
bearing on this particular lifetime. In Yogic texts the
ingrained emotional habit patterns are called samskaras,
variously translated as subliminal activators or latent
emotional impressions from prior thoughts and actions,
therefore, deep habits, even genetically determined habit
patterns. These deep, lunar impressions are triggered by
planetary transits. When that happens, situations arise in
our lives, which offer the opportunity to clear them out,
reprogram them by choosing a different course of thought
or action from the pattern of the past. Or we may remain
unconscious and continue to repeat old patterns, thereby
reinforcing them and impressing them in our Moon
memory even more powerfully and deeply.
For example, a transit of Uranus over the Moon offers the
opportunity to observe ones own emotional responses in
an impartial, detached way, and to respond intelligently to
challenges. It can bring emotionally upsetting shocks
which wake us up to the reality of circumstances or
relationships we did not want to deal with.
