When it comes to astrological matchmaking, one of the first things astrologers look for is moon sign compatibility. The way the sun and moon signs in partners’ charts are key indicators as to whether the relationship will last.
It’s all based on element compatibility. For example, if you have a fire sign moon, you would work well with a person who has a fire sign sun. However, you would work best with someone who has the same sun sign as your moon sign. For example, a Leo moon-Leo sun match up would be bliss.
Want to know if your relationship is a match in astrological heaven? Here are all the moon sign meanings and the best sun signs to pair up with.
Your moon sign is determined by where the moon is at the time of your birth. This sign in your chart represents your emotions, intimate details, and how you give (and like to receive) love from others.
Excellent question. You can figure this out by taking a look at your birth chart. To help figure this out, use our easy moon sign calculator. We don’t have a moon sign calculator, but you can easily find your moon sign with our free birth chart calculator!

Taurus moon signs have a great deal of emotional strength, but you can also be stubborn and cautious. Your perfect partner may not have to be magazine-cover beautiful, but they do have to take the best possible care of themselves. You get along best with another Taurus, discriminating Virgo, or organized Capricorn sun sign.

Gemini moons are versatile and somewhat reckless, which means you tend to be a flirt. You also like to change partners quite often, so marriage and long-term relationships may not be part of your love plan. You’re happiest with a kindhearted Libra, eccentric Aquarius, and of course, a Gemini sun sign.

Virgo moons are less emotional than other signs. You have a heart, but you tend to look at things from an analytical perspective rather than following your feelings. You’re a very loyal partner, however. Your ideal other half is most likely an efficient Taurus, conservative Capricorn, or a Virgo sun sign.
