As the second light of the solar system, the moon has always been associated with the sun in the minds of men. The moon and sun are the primordial cosmic couple. This satellite of the earth, which mysteriously waxes and wanes, has been compared to the eternal feminine principle, the mother hovering over your infant’s cradle. Psychologically, the moon is thus symbolic of the mother and the mother image. This figure is a primordial element in the psyche of each individual. Depending on your nature, the mother figure may correspond to your biological mother, a grandmother, or a woman who cared for you in infancy and childhood. When you reach adulthood, this mother-figure and all the emotions and bonds associated with you may be transferred to something else: a spouse, a companion, an institution, a church, corporation, or political movement, a cult, etc. In short, any individual or structure likely to take on the mother’s duty of caring for and nurturing the vulnerable aspects of an individual. In addition, the moon is associated with the psychic realm, which is the realm of the unconscious mind. This is where your feelings, thoughts, and impulses reside. Because the unconscious is the repository of all our repressed emotions, the moon is also associated with all aspects of the psyche that are unresolved and hidden. You may be unconsciously influenced by your emotions and impulses, and you may be especially sensitive to the emotional energy around you. You may also be unconsciously attracted to or repelled by certain people, ideas, or things. In your daily life, psychic activity will rule. Your imagination, memory, sensitivity, sensation, and sentiment nearly overwhelm your psyche.

Tabatha Coffey:
Pluto is the planet of transformation. It rules the sign of Scorpio, the sign of death, redemption, and divine mysteries. Pluto’s energy is mysterious. Its discovery in 1932 associates it symbolically with the creation of the nuclear bomb and the development of psychoanalysis. In ancient mythology, Pluto was considered to be associated with all the aspects of the underworld – Hades, the Greek name for Pluto, was the god of shell. Today, the underworld is synonymous with the Mafia, and the two share many characteristics.
Pluto occupies an important place in the horoscopes of great mystics and spiritual beings, as well as in the theme of certain dictators and tyrants, among them the most ruthless and greedy for power. In psychological terms, Pluto corresponds to the transmutation of instinctive energies into energies which are accessible consciously by the individual’s ego. This transmutation, which is never completely controllable, induces a power complex. On the social level, it might be symbolized by the nuclear disaster, the failure of Western man to master the energy of the atom – a power complex gone awry. On the individual level, Pluto is expressed either in a “power complex,” in which instinctive energy is completely transmuted into a personal resource, or as a “failure complex,” in which certain inhibitions prevent the instinctive energy from being transmuted.
Tabatha Coffey, you should pay attention to the ninth house in your horoscope because it contains several planets that will affect your rising sign.
According to traditional astrology, this area is ruled by Sagittarius, the ninth sign of the zodiac. Its chief attributes are moral and political judgment (laws, ethics, and politics as a means of improving society), dreams, distant journeys, studies such as religion, philosophy, priesthood, spiritual guidance, and wisdom. More specifically, this area rules the individual’s capacity for expansion into new areas, both in terms of self-knowledge and social involvement. This can manifest in a number of ways, including a strong desire for personal growth and expansion, as well as a tendency to put too much trust in external sources of validation. Difficulties may arise from the individual’s tendency to put too much faith in their own abilities, as well as from the external forces which they may attempt to manipulate or control. If you put too much faith in the flattering self-image reflected by the community, you may gradually begin to neglect your personal essence. Because this perverse tendency to confuse form with function is reinforced by modern society’s emphasis on packaging and advertising, you are at risk of losing yourself completely. This house reveals that nothing is more difficult than failure in a period of success.
Tabatha Coffey reads the eighth house as indicating a potential for great wealth, although it is important to remember that not every placement in this house will result in such a fate.
