Answer 1

A comprehensive reading for all one hundred and forty-four possible combinations of Sun signs combined with Moon signs. The Sun sign is the position of sun (You call yourself a Cancerian if born on June 29th) and Moon sign is the position of moon at the time of birth (popularly known as the Janma Rasi)

The Sun and Moon together play a pivotal role in our lives. Western astrological predictions are based upon the Sun sign, while the Vedic astrological predictions are based upon the Moon sign. By combining and blending Sun and Moon, a more unique and personal reading begins to emerge. This, in essence, is the bringing together of the basic individuality and the instinctive.

Sun Sign
The Sun is the core of the individual; the overriding nature and will. Now it begins to be clear why each of the Sun signs can reflect such observable traits and yet still come in so many varieties. The Sun Sign represents the Sign of the Zodiac that the Sun was in at the time of your birth. The Sun rules willpower and ego. It is the core of your potential and uniqueness as an individual; who you are and what you are about. Your Sun Sign represents the main direction and focus you want your life to take, and your determination to accomplish what you set out to do. It represents your personal honesty and integrity, your ability to command respect and authority, and your capacity to impress and influence others.

Moon Sign
The Moon Sign is the Zodiac Sign in which the Moon was located when you were born. The Moon is the second most important planet aside from the Sun. It embodies the emotions, subconscious and conveys the sense of instinct. The moon influences one’s personality and determines the kind of person one is. The position of the moon determines in one's personality, feeling, emotions, passions, pleasure and pain. The Moon is a satellite of the Earth and nearest to Earth, and thus has a remarkably strong effect on the life of this planet. The Moon is the planet of the unconscious mind, habits and emotions. The aspects and position of the Moon in a natal chart indicate the subject's way of dealing with the influence of others. Bear in mind the moon is your emotional life. It relates to immediate emotional responses. It is those reactions instilled by conditioning; the memory and learned habit patterns. The influence of the Moon is more subtle, for it relates to personality beneath the surface; your feelings and your subconscious self. It shows how you react to those around you based on the sum of your conditioned viewpoint and unguarded self-projection. Often, the Moon's place in the chart shows a considerably different side of the nature, a side fostered by emotions, upbringing, and habit patterns that have developed over time.
