Moon in Sign
Aquarius (Western) · Capricorn (Vedic)
The Moon in Aquarius creates emotional detachment that allows for original thinking and concern for the collective. Feelings are filtered through intellect, and there is a deep need for personal freedom and authenticity.
Why two systems?
Western astrology uses the tropical zodiac aligned with the seasons. Vedic astrology uses the sidereal zodiac aligned with the actual constellations, offset by ~24° due to Earth's axial precession.

Avoid
- Intellectual arrogance — stay humble in your knowing
