I absolutely love what my teacher Ernst Wilhelm said about how Compatibility is the most important astrological topic to study and how predictions generally aren't helpful for a person's healing journey:
Recently someone asked me what I thought was the single most important thing to learn if an astrologer wanted to serve humanity. Without a doubt my answer was Compatibility as presented by the ancient Indian texts. Personally, I do not believe that making predictions often helps a person. When I am too busy to do readings and a person desperately wants me to make a prediction about their future. I do not interrupt my schedule to help them. The reason being that I just have not seen making predictions really help people, though people always believe it will help them and so ask for predictions. I study predictive astrology as an art or perfect astrological expression, not because I think it will really help someone. Not to mention, 75% of the questions people ask in a predictive context have answers that are not what they want them to be and people often ask out of hope and not really to hear the truth of their life’s events to come.
Compatibility readings, on the other hand, that I am always most ready to accommodate even when I am swamped with other astrological projects. More than anything, in this day and age, people are in desperate need to learn how to have healthy relationships. Healthy relationships are the foundation for healthy money managing, enjoying ones work even if trivial, maintaining health, etc. A bad relationship undercuts all these things. When we look deeply at most people’s issues, frustrations, addictions, etc. we will usually find at the bottom of it a broken, frustrated or lonely heart. If that heart can find comfort in a healthy relationship, their whole life will improve. So I consider Compatibility the most helpful aspect of astrology that an astrologer can present their client with. By Compatibility, however, I don’t just mean matching horoscopes, but the art of healthy relating which is perfectly revealed through the Indian astrological techniques of compatibility – an art that 90% of astrologers are in desperate need of themselves. Astrological Compatibility also contains within it all the most important psychological aspects of our being, which are the foundation for our relationships.
Why Isn’t it Important to Analyze Sun Signs for Compatibility?
The Sun in our natal chart represents our inspirations, how to make the world a better place, our individuality, our essence, and much more. The Moon represents many things such as our home, how we perceive the world, our level of happiness, and what we’re comfortable with. While the Sun is who we are in the world and what we do that shines, what’s important in relationships is our Moon because it represents who we are behind closed doors and how we get our inner needs met.
Representing our happiness and how we get our needs met, the Moon shows how we experienced our mother or mother figure from the moment we were born until we were one year old. Was your mother nurturing and knew exactly when you needed your diaper changed and when you needed more milk? Or was she stressed out working two jobs and had to put you in someone else’s care? Our early upbringing and our experience about getting our needs met shape our self-image and our happiness, all of which the Moon dictates. This is far more important in compatibility than two people having similar career goals, which the Sun represents.
Our Moon shows what we’re used to because it also has to do with our environment. We have to be a certain way in the workplace, but who are we at home with our partner? Do we feel comfortable and at home with them? Are we not getting our inner needs met with them? As a baby, if you were used to a mother who was composed during stressful times, you also can handle emotionally distressing things with ease and therefore, you’re probably going to feel at home with a partner who has similar qualities.
Moon Compatibility
One easy way to see if two people are compatible is by analyzing the planetary ruler of their Moon signs using Tropical Vedic Astrology. If the Moon sign or the ruler of the Moon are the same, then those two Moons are compatible. Yes, it’s that easy! But keep in mind, much more goes into compatibility and we’ll discuss some other techniques another time.
By the way, I offer Cards of Truth compatibility readings, where I analyze your birth card chart along with your partner’s, which includes some astrology techniques as well. For more information, visit: https://www.hercosmiccrown.com/product-page/cards-compatibility-reading
The Moon is the fastest-moving planet so if you don’t know your birth time, please be aware that the Moon sign can be in the sign before or after the one that appears in the chart.

The Sun rules Leo. The Moon in Leo is compatible with other people with their Moon in Leo. This Moon sign indicates that a person can adapt their lives around their overall vision for life. If they envision having their own business but lack marketing skills, they can more readily learn that skill so that their business can flourish. In other words, a person discovers ways to get their needs met so that their kingdom can prosper.
The Moon rules Cancer. The Moon in Cancer is compatible with others with their Moon in Cancer. Having your Moon in this go-with-the-flow water sign indicates that you can quickly adapt to any pressure life throws. You can hold it together before falling into fits of madness.
Mars rules Aries and Scorpio. Those with their Moon in Aries or Scorpio are compatible with those with their Moon in either Aries or Scorpio. A Moon in a Mars sign shows that you have the energy and focus to act towards fulfilling your hunger. You’re a mentally/emotionally strong person who exerts their will. Your problem-solving skills help you handle intense situations. You’re a fighter and protector of the things you love.
Mercury rules Gemini and Virgo. If you have your Moon in either Gemini or Virgo, you’re compatible with those with their Moon in Gemini or Virgo. You can come off as intuitive because you’re observant and by being intelligent, you understand what works for you and what doesn’t. You’re adaptable and enjoy using your well-developed communication skills. You find ways to be happy and make the best of what you’re given in this life.
Jupiter rules Sagittarius and Pisces. Having your Moon in one of Jupiter’s signs shows that you’re connected to your purpose and long-term vision. You may have a strong sense of what you consider to be good and you want this goodness to shine through you. You may have a solid belief system or moral path in which you rely and your creative destiny gives you purpose.
Venus rules Taurus and Libra. Having your Moon in one of these signs indicates that you’re used to getting your needs met and having a balanced sense of happiness. You enjoy the comforts that the world has to offer and finding a mate with a similar trait is important for you. You’re generally composed and can tolerate a great deal of emotional discomfort.
Saturn rules Capricorn and Aquarius. If you have your Moon in Capricorn or Aquarius, you’re compatible with others who have their Moon in Capricorn or Aquarius. A Moon in one of Saturn’s signs signifies that you have a great ability to survive anything and you can bear lots of burdens. You do well with solving life’s problems and can handle a lot of stress.

I’ve created Moon boards, which are collages based on each Moon sign. To get an artistic feel for each Moon sign and for more information about them, check out the Moon boards at the bottom of the “Astrology” section on my website: www.hercosmiccrown.com/astrology
