The zodiac is often the subject of ridicule by those who have a basic understanding of science and logic, but that doesn’t stop true believers from believing that the moon, sun, and other stars have an effect on their lives. Most newspapers that publish a horoscope will show your sun sign, but the question “how can I figure out what my moon sign is” is just as valid as knowing one’s sun sign.
It’s at this point that some people will ask why it’s even important to know what their moon sign is. If they already are willing to believe in a sun sign, then wanting to know a moon sign may indicate that they are looking for additional insights. It could also be argued that needing more insights proves that sun signs aren’t all that effective either, but that’s not the point of this article. Some astrologers believe that one’s sun sign is an indication of how others see you, while the moon sign signals how you see yourself.
The problem with answering “how can I figure out what my moon sign is” is that various astrologers give a different interpretation of what your moon sign is, and how to figure it out. Therefore, you pretty much have to choose an astrologer (any astrologer will do), and follow their instructions for determining your personal moon sign. You will at, the very least, need to know your birthday, but in some cases you will need to know what time of day you were born, as well as the place of your birth (refer to your birth certificate if you are unsure of any information surrounding your birth).
Here is a quick overview of each zodiac sign (the sun sign) and how their respective moon sign can influence them.

A Taurus may experience more stubbornness, mixed with a better memory, when the moon is in the same sign.
