What You Need To Feel Emotionally Secure In A Relationship, According To Your Moon Sign

The Moon in our natal chart shows us many things, including the nature of our early life, the role the mother played in our lives, what we crave on an emotional level, and what it takes to feel like we are home. It also shows us how we connect with others on a deeper, more intimate level and what we need to feel secure in a romantic relationship.

"The Moon sign is all about someone's emotional responses and how they connect with other people," astrologer Celine Diong explained in a series of TikTok videos. "It's all about what makes you feel safe and secure."

Aries Moon

Aries is a high-energy sign and is typically open to many different things. An Aries Moon values excitement and a deep connection with their partner who can share their passion for life. An Aries Moon needs someone who matches their energy and spontaneity to feel emotionally secure and fulfilled. This includes things like sudden trips or dates, unexpected adventures, and being open to doing things at the spur of the moment as opposed to planning.

Taurus Moon

A Taurus Moon is very laid back and does not like to be out of their comfort zone. They approach things in a relaxed manner, are not in a hurry, and don’t do well with pushiness. For this reason, the Taurus Moon needs "someone who's a little bit more practical," Diong explained.

Taurus is a practical sign, and a comfortable and attractive home environment is important. They typically don’t like change, a high-paced environment, or spur-of-the-moment activities. Money and material possessions are important to Taurus, so it will take time for the Taurus Moon to feel ready to merge their home life with someone else's.

Gemini Moon

Gemini is a rational sign that connects with others through conversation. They are generally open-minded, intelligent, literate, social, and enjoy a variety of people in their lives. A partner would need to understand that the Gemini Moon person frequently connects with all types of other people sometimes at any time of the day or night. They generally like to be busy and active. Possessiveness would not go over well with Gemini or feeling restricted in a relationship.

Cancer Moon

Cancer needs to feel secure and loved in a relationship that is solid and generally committed. They like to know where they are going as opposed to guessing. Family is important to Cancer so they would expect a partner to be respectful at the very least, and a Cancer Moon would not do well with a partner they felt they couldn’t introduce to their family members. Money, or at least the drive to make money, can be important because Cancer is always looking to build a future and does not do well with financial insecurity.

A Cancer Moon is warm and empathetic and will do just about anything to protect their own. A prospective partner would need to be ok with the fact that like the Moon Cancer’s mood changes literally every 24 hours since the Moon rules Cancer.

A Leo Moon needs to feel appreciated, pampered, and admired. They need a partner that makes them feel inspired and they like big romantic gestures.

Virgo Moon

Virgo is an organized and structured zodiac sign, and the Virgo Moon needs a partner who appreciates and values these qualities. A partner who is flaky, always late, and cannot be depended on will never work for a Virgo Moon. Since Virgo is ruled by Mercury, the planet of speech and communication, they must have someone they have a mental connection with who can also communicate clearly.

Work is also important to Virgo, known as the ‘worker of the zodiac.’ Therefore, any prospective partner must have a career path and plan to garner the interest and respect of Virgo Moon.

Libra Moon

Libra is one of the signs ruled by Venus, and Venus is all about love, beauty, and romance. These are the three things that Libra Moon cannot live without in a partner. Of course, we could add manners, style, and the ability to socialize and converse with others since Libra is a rational air sign. Pettiness, sloppiness, anger, and jealousy are qualities that Libra Moon finds hard to tolerate as well as being unkempt or crude. Libra likes to keep their friends and activities and not lose themselves in their partner and their activities.
