In episode 414, astrologer Chani Nicolai joins the podcast to talk about the Sun, Moon and rising signs in astrology and explain what they mean and the difference between them.
In the 20th century, it became common for people to know their Sun Sign, which is the sign the Sun is in when you were born.
However, in recent years, thanks to the proliferation of astrology apps and websites, it has become commonplace to know the “big three” of your Sun, Moon, and rising sign.
But what do Sun, Moon and rising zodiac signs mean in a birth chart? During this episode, we discuss the key meanings of these placements, which Cha calls the “three keys” of your birth chart.
In Chani’s approach, the Sun represents your life’s purpose and how it shines, the Moon represents your physical and emotional needs and how we fulfill our purpose in the physical realm, and the Ascendant and its ruler indicate your motivation to live and the direction of your life.
Chani is the author of the book You Were Born For This: Astrology For Radical Self-Acceptanceand the creator of CHANI, an astrology app available for iOS and Android.
