    This fascinates me.  I'd love to hear from anyone else who may have this conjunction with a loved one.  Loved one can be for any relationship you hold dear to your heart, not just someone you're romantically involved with.

     

    I have a Sun/Moon conjunction in synastry with one of my closest male friends.  He is a Cancer Sun/Sagittarius Moon and I am a Sagittarius Sun/Taurus Moon.  It's funny because we just "get" each other in a way that I can't describe, and haven't been able to describe since we first "got" each other 6 years ago.  I guess it's a pretty tight conjunction, it's 5 degrees (his Moon is at 4 degrees Sag, my Sun is 9 degrees Sag) which can't hurt.  He felt the attraction towards me, first though.

    Then I have a Sun/Moon cojunction in which I am the "Moon" with a friend who I thought was a close friend, but he faded away... For reasons unknown (and will probably remain that way as he is being childish and not letting me in, which is alright) to me.  I immediately felt attracted to him.  He didn't feel that way until later.  But we are (or were) just friends until he started trying to push the envelope. 

     

    Do you share this synastry with anyone?

    Have you heard that it's often the Moon person that becomes attracted first?

     And I've read that when the man is the Moon person, it can create issues... Which I thought was interesting.  

    I love this aspect because it shows the masculine/feminine qualities really working together.  The first guy and I (his aren't in orb to have the aspect though) both have inconjuncts between the Sun and Moon.  I actually have the aspect by orb and sign though.

    Neat stuff. :)

    Had an out of sign conjunction between my sun in Leo and my ex's moon in Virgo.  As for it causing problems, well...  he's an ex for a reason, right?    (Not really.  I think it was both the heavy Saturn and prominent Neptune that sank us.)

    Interestingly, yes, he was attracted first.  I didn't even find him physically attractive when I met him, as much as I loved our conversations.  He persued, though, and grew on me.  What can I say?  *shrugs*

    I had a sun/moon conjunction with a man I was with for several years. In fact, it was doubled, because my moon was also conjunct his sun. (I'm a cancer with an aries moon, he is an aries with a cancer moon.)  We were great buddies. We liked to do all the same stuff - travel, work on his house and in the garden, hiking, etc.  There was a lot of love between us, but it didn't work out. I think we were too much alike! I'm hoping that he finds someone wonderful though.

    Haha come to think of it, every guy I've ever really really really liked (and felt like there could be an actual relationship--not just another fling) and I have had a Sun/Moon conjunction.  That is freakin' crazy.

    In one case again I was the Moon and he was the Taurus Sun.  But, he also had some avoidance tendencies and my Sag Sun just can't put up with someone who constantly runs from how they feel/won't tell me the truth.  So that had to end.  But it was funny because I avoided him like the plague at first.... Sigh....

    Thanks for sharing, y'all.  Deglet, that is very sweet of you.  Although all of these relations with these guys are pretty much off (except Cancer boy) I still always want the best for them.  No matter how rocky things ended between us or were while we were together.

    Based on observation, though sun-moon conjunctions are really fated (like there's no getting away from it), this relationship would last only if the individuals whose sun and moon each corresponds to are both comfortable with the masculine/feminine roles in the relationship.

    So when the sun person assumes the masculine role and the moon person is comfortable with the whole set-up then fine.  A conscious give and take or role-switching should be openly discussed here.

    I learned my lesson the hard way on this one.  Tricky eh?

    My partner and I were together almost 8 years and we had this. In fact we had some incredible synastry together (he he) and I'm sure that's why the relationship lasted as long as it did.

    Persian_cat, very true. Hmmm.  Hahah, that makes me laugh.  Let's see, I have been the Sun person in two of these, the other ones I am the moon person.  Cap boy with the Sag moon was always running around, humoring people, while I just kind of sat back and told him to chill out sometimes.  It worked, for about 4 years.  Until he started lying and I just... No.

     

    Cancer boy with the Sag moon is very sweet.  He just is.  We are not in a relationship (but probably could be the way things are just... working...) but I think we are okay with the way things are.  He has Aries rising, Jupiter in Aries in 1st house, Mars in Leo 5th house.  No matter how sweet he is, he is also very fiery and manly.  He is a Marine, after all ha.

     

    The other three Taurus males I was involved with were cool.  One is super possessive and I said goodbye before it could even get off the ground, the other one does this disappearing act that I cannot stand so he can go to wherever he goes, and the last one also likes to do this ebb and flow thing.  I don't do half time relationships with anyone. Be there, or be gone.  So, needless to say, of those 3 only the first one and I semi-keep in touch.

    Seems to work better when I'm the Sun... Cause I adore those two (but they're also cardinal signs... Ha) even though Cappy and I just don't talk anymore. I know we had something great.  As for Cancer, only time will tell.  Just awaiting his return from Afghanistan right now.  What a long road.  But I know that at least our bond is even stronger than it was 7 years ago when we first met :)

     

    And Kashmiri, that is awesome :) Love it.

    My husband and I have a very tight conjunction of my sun and his moon. I read somewhere the conjunction is supposed to work better when it's the woman's sun and the man's moon.  

    We have some other synastry.  We understood each other from the day we met.  We've been together for thirty years.  

    Ro, best of luck.

    Ro, great thread... meant to write something the other day but "I wasn't feeling it."

    I've had some warm friendships erupt with people who turn out to be Libra moons. After getting to know these people and watching how they interact I can almost always guess their moon placement. It's not a deep friendship though... it's just pleasant and nice.

    Scorpio sun people conjuncting my moon... some have been my loyal friends and others have... uhhh... well, some might say "put me through needed transformations and then disappeared." Others would say "that fucker burned you, man." 

    I think I spill my guts too early to some Scorpios. Maybe they give me that false sense of security, with their energy supporting my moon. I've had a few Scorpios listen VERY intently to what I would consider personal stuff - and then RUN back to others who I guess they considered higher up on the trust scale... and just spew everything I said.

    Maybe my Libra planets ultimately clash with the Scorpio energy, and it doesn't matter that I have the crazy moon.

    Romantically speaking, I've never done anything more than have a random few dates/makeout with a Scorpio male.

    (The makeouts were GREAT though - hubba hubba! Long time ago.)

    I had a Scorpio seriously pursue me and it make me uncomfortable - too much too early. I bolted.

    I have a really wonderful friendship with a girlfriend whose little brother I used to date.She's older than the both of us, so we didn't really have much in common at first, but over the last ten years we have become superbly close and this is after I broke up with her brother.

    Well, when I checked her chart it turns out that we have a double whammy in that department (sun/moon conj.) She is Cancer Sun/Libra Moon and me- Libra Sun/Cancer Moon.No wonder we understand each other so well.We seem to be able to idle  away hours in each other's company seamlessly...nobody gets irritated or tired of the other.

    Wow great topic Ro! I really like it and hope more share their experiences. Personally I noticed Im attracted deeply to men who conjunct my Scorpio sun. I felll hard for one who was only 1degree way from my sun and it was intense. Not sure if he was attracted first. I think it was instant on both sides. I think at times I made him feel uneasy because I tuned into the unconcious part of his moon...It didnt really last but I truly loved it

    My son has Aries moon one degree away from his dad's Aries sun.  His dad's older son as also within a degree of the two of them.  

    The really cool thing is that dad is not biological, but chosen as we met when Aubrey was a baby.  They bonded like crazy and he and I committed to maintaining that connection regardless of what happened between us.  We have and it's been an amazing thing for my son, who's bio dad wasn't involved.

    Here's weird for you:  Capricorn hubs and I have Sun (me) and Moon (him) exactly conjunct at 15 Leo.

    People might think the man's Moon conjunct the woman's Sun "isn't as good" because it makes the man emotionally dependent on the woman.  Hogwash, I say.

    As different as we are, this is why the marriage works.  Deep down, because the conjunction is exact, we "get" each other.

    I've dated and had good friendships with men whose Suns were close to my Libra Moon.  But the Leo conjunction seemed to be the fated one.  Hubs is the only Leo Moon I ever dated.

    This also explains why my Sag daughter drives me nuts...I'm a bit harder on her because deep down, I think she's more like me than I care to admit.  Her Moon is 23 Leo...the orb is wide, but it's still a conjunction.

    My Sun 27/Mercury 25 is conjunct his Moon 26/Pluto 29 Virgo. Sandwiched like fingers holding hands.

    We both have Uranus in 3rd house, Mars in Scorpio 4th house, Venus in 4th house.  His capricorn sun is in my 7th (I am Cancer Asc. )

    We dont have to spell anything out.  Communication between us is mind meld with a side of poetry.  We both play both gender roles.  He likes my gritty testosterone and I crave his sensitive kind healing.  But when he turns on his male, Im done. Im a puddle.  Because of the subtlety of our energy, I believe it was he that was attracted first. When I realized it, my knees buckled.... it seems I always have to take the initiative.  Its like I sense his needs and then put myself out there and give it expression. weird but then,

      I am wicked in love with him.

     And he is married...

    yeah, thanks Ro, thats that freakin story of my life. intense.  and it always seems to turn people off.   or they just dont understand.  I embrace my intensity, but I guess Im stlill learning to "lighten up" with Jove (jupiter).   Thats the thing I feel with this person. That he does understand it cause he lives it too.

    I read this thing the other day said "i have a passionate love affair with life"

     Nice to see you again Ro.

    All right, I may as well ask this question here.

    Have you ever thought about turning OFF the feelings for a married man?

    You just turn them off!

    Oh! We used to flirt when you were young, I thought you were cute, maybe we made out once or twice?

    But you're married now. Someone other woman's property. A woman like me. She irons your shirts and worries about you when you drive in the snow.

    Married? Well, okay, arrange a few things in my head, shift the focus and now you're my brother. 

    Guy at work, kinda cute, hmm... would I??

    Ohh! Married!

    ::needle scratches off record::

    You've become a family member to me. I will never look at you with any measure of lust again. 

    Did you ever do that, or try to? I'm not judging, I honestly don't understand how these scenarios develop.

    Chamirose. I don't know what to say. You've got integrity ,it shows in your posts. Step away from the married man. Step way, way, way away.

    Saturn in Libra hopefully = Integrity (Saturn) in Relationships (Libra) 

     I don't know what kind of relationships you have within your life, but if you were ever interested in, you know, an astrological perspective, I recommend a reading with Elsa. I had two readings with Elsa and they were both centered on a romantic relationship I was in. She knows her stuff. I can't say it enough.

    So, completely ignoring the elephant in the room, did anyone else read the post on the Inner Wheel about sun-moon synastry?  I thought it was fab!  Interesting ideas, considering I had sun-moon conjunctions and trines with That Motherfucker, but squares and oppositions with SuperScorp.  WTH?

    We're living parallel lives, dude!  High five!
    Ja, SuperScorp has been sort-of around since April.  He's a possible double Scorp (sun and rising) with a stellium in Scorp.  I don't trust he gave me the correct birth time, though, and I haven't pumped his mom for info yet.  *snert*  Must.  Investigate!!
    I dig it.  Don't know how long I want the ride to last, but I dig it.

    For the interested, the chart(s).  I'm inside, he's out:
    OMG!  The squares!  The SQUARES!!!!  *flees*

    What can I say?  I don't do easy.

    Nice to see you too, Chamirose.

    Wow, Bananas.  Let's just chill out for a minute here.  I can see both sides of Chamirose's scenario.  From each of your viewpoints.  I have been on each side of that fence, and it's not easy to just "turn it off."  Right, yes.  But not easy.  To each their own. I did not intend for this discussion to start an argument.  Feelings flow, you can't just turn them off.  As a matter of a fact, I'd think that if you did have an on/off switch for your feelings... They were never real to begin with.  I'm not saying it's alright to go after a married man, because I don't think it is... But just because you verbally express something/feel a certain way doesn't mean you cross any boundaries.  As long as you can live with your emotions, then that's what matters.  They're yours to own, and no one else's.  Just because you can't understand how someone can feel a certain way doesn't mean it's not okay for them to feel that way.  

    And back to Chamirose, trust me... I know how you can feel that way, but the best thing you could do for yourself is to save that energy and give it away to a single man who can appreciate it and love you like you deserve.  Trust me, it's a hard concept to grasp... One I took forever to grasp.  But now that I've got it deeply ingrained into my mind, I would never look back.  I deserve to receive all that I give.  I can't give my all if I'm giving to more than one person.  If I'm giving my all, I want to receive his all as well.  Can't have that from a taken man.  No matter how much you wish you could.  So I'm going to have to high five Kashmiri on the backing away from the married man.

     

    SaDiablo, I'm going to check that link out.

    I actually didn't think we were fighting. I'm trying to make a point without writing a lot of emotional fluff, and no one is getting it. So I'm pretty much done.

    EDIT: 

    Okay, I'm not done. I just think this is important.

    Chami.... woman, I am trying to EMPOWER you with a very simple concept.

    Whatever you focus on is what you will bring into your own life.

    So if you focus on an unavailable man, that's what you're going to get.

    This is not judgment. I have friends who went with married men during their confused phase. I didn't "shun" them.

    But I know you aren't happy in the situation. I am trying to show you that it is ENTIRELY within your control. And you deserve to be HAPPY. 

    It is YOUR choice to read this, and either think about it, or just ignore it.

    PS - I also just think it would be entertaining/interesting to hear people justify it.  This stuff is going to seen much more harshly with Saturn in Libra, I'd say.

    If someone can think of how to frame a new thread, please do. :)

    Chamirose, all is well.  No worries.  And I'll try to keep it going with the threads, whatever astrology is bouncing around in this mind of mine. :)

    Bananas, that's the thing about the internet. Crucial pieces of communication are missed...  It seemed as though you were being condescending and in a way telling her she shouldn't feel that way, which is why I said what I said.  At least that was my perception.  But thank you for clarifying.  It makes sense now.

     

    Elsa, maybe that whole fight-over-cheating thread wouldn't be such a bad thing.  Haha.

    SaDiablo, thank you for that link you posted.  There's some good stuff in there.  :) Learn something new everyday!

    Anyway, not to ignore poor SaDiablo who was just trying to stay on topic... YES! I actually DID click your link and read the sun/moon conjuctions blog article. It was really good - very thorough and taught me some things I didn't know. For example, I didn't know that the moon person is "coming from" a place where the sun person is GOING.

    It doesn't feel that way to me, actually, when I deal with people whose moons are in Libra which is where my sun is. It feels to me that THEY are struggling in a place where I have already been and emerged victorious on the other side.

    How can this be?

    I love this aspect. For me it's usually my moon conjunct their sun. I have two guy friends, one of whom is a Pisces sun and one of whom is an Aries sun, who i share this aspect with and needless to say, they are some of my really close friends. My female friend has Sun/Moon in Aries, giving us a sun-moon conjunction and moon in the same sign. I think i want to hold out on marriage til i find someone who I can be with who i share this aspect with in synastry.

     My moon is in Aries ( 5 degrees ) and Sun in Scorpio.
