A person’s Venus placement is indicative of how he or she operates romantically. However, with the moon sign representing a person’s emotional inner world, this placement also plays an imperative role in love.

If the Venus sign shows you how a person loves, then the moon sign might point to how they need to be loved. The moon sign offers more insight as to what a person needs to feel safe and seen, which are key components to a healthy relationship.

What Does Your Moon Sign Tell You?

Alongside a person’s love language, the moon sign is loudly indicative of how a person yearns to be loved. Whether you want to learn more about what you need or gathering helpful information about your lover, here’s everything the moon sign tells you about how a person needs to be loved.

Aries Moon

Those with an Aries moon have a need to embrace their inner child. If a person with an Aries moon’s partner brings out their inner child, then they are encouraged to explore, create and embark on adventure. This creates a feeling as though they are right at home. As the youngest sign of the zodiac, scraped knees and overstimulation are their bread and butter. For those with an Aries moon, a relationship that honors that need for play rather than demanding them to grow up is ideal.

Taurus Moon

Those with a Taurus moon thrive on pleasure and comfort. They need to be caressed and fed, kissed and adored. Their relationship needs to feel like a weighted blanket or warm bath with aromatherapy. This means massages, cuddles and weekly fine dining. With enough physical touch and sweet treats, they would happily roll around in bed with their lover for all of eternity.

Gemini Moon

Those who have a Gemini moon need to be loved through exploration. When someone takes the time to really get to know them, ask them the right questions and take interest in their quirky fixations, people with Gemini moons truly feel seen and held. It’s a bore being this brilliant if you don’t have anyone to perform it for. The main thing that really matters is that they have the intellectual capacity to meet you there.

Cancer Moon

As the most maternal sign of all the zodiac, those with a Cancer moon value home and comfort. In a relationship, they need a relationship to feel like internal safety. It’s the emotional equivalent of fresh sheets and an afternoon nap. They are so busy taking care of everyone else around them, but it’s important that their relationship is a place to rest and exhale. They don’t need anyone to cause more emotional labor.

Leo Moon

A Leo moon’s sole desire is to be adored, loudly and publicly. It’s important to them that their partner is proud to be with them and wants to show them off. For those with a Leo moon, these actions communicates that their partner sees their value and worth. Charming them behind closed doors means nothing if their partner isn’t just as affectionate in front of their friends.

Virgo Moon

While Leos are typically the ones in the zodiac associated with self-obsession, Virgo moons are truly the ones to get off on a praise kink. As a Virgo moon, it’s important that their partner sees and validates how impeccably perfect they are at everything. From words of affirmation to helping keep things tidy so that they can continue to be efficient, those with a Virgo moon needs a partner to acknowledge the pristine caliber of human they scored.

Libra Moon

True friendship is the foundation of any healthy relationship, and that’s especially true for a libra moon. Those with a Libra moon wants their partner to feel like their best friend. They want someone who they can laugh with and confide in way before any of the romantic stuff comes into play. If this person is going to be a life-long roommate, then it’s worth it to them that they enjoy their partner’s company platonically. That will always save them if they are having an off season romantically.

Scorpio Moon

Beyond all else, a Scorpio moon needs deep and unwavering loyalty. They are pretty prone to jealousy, which is why it’s crucial to have a partner who gives them nothing to worry about. Their partner needs to make it clear that they’ll ride for them in any given situation. They need to know that there’s no one capable of distracting them from getting their partner’s full attention. Once they receive it, then they’ll return that same loyalty back.

Sagittarius Moon

As a Sagittarius moon, a person needs to feel like the courting stage never stopped. Otherwise, they are one yawn away from moving on to the next prospect. From fun dates to last minute baecations, the flirting shouldn’t subside simply because there’s a title or a shared pet now. As long as their lover is still making the effort to impress them, they’ll have their full devotion.

Capricorn Moon

There’s nothing more important to a Capricorn moon than stability. In a world where everything is fluctuating and nothing is promised, they need to feel like their relationship is constant. While others may find predictability to be boring, it’s actually their most valued asset. Coming home to a lover who is always there and ready to hear them complain about your incompetent co-worker is your highest caliber of romance.

Aquarius Moon

Freedom and independence are where those with an Aquarius moon thrive. This doesn’t mean they are better off alone. Instead, it means they need a love that honors their unique need for space. It’s imperative to their soul. They need the time to recharge in the comfort of their own company. A relationship where they have permission to do that is crucial. Their ideal lover will encourage them to go on solo walks, maintain a healthy relationship with your friends, and maybe even entertain the idea of separate bedrooms. It will make the time they do spend with their partner all the more delicious.

Pisces Moon

A Pisces moon needs to feel a divine, celestial and otherworldly connection. They want to feel like they’ve known their partner in a past life. It needs to feel like their partner karmically challenges their soul to expand them into your fullest potential. It’s not the kind of twin flame connection that’s easy to come by, but it’s one they’ll recognize right away.
