In the natal chart, the planets represent tools and talents to develop.
One of them – a satellite, actually – is the Moon. The celestial body closest to the Earth, it symbolizes how we were raised and how we bond with our mother.
That “memory” is currently the basis of our ability protect and motherand also reveals how much addiction we generate in those people or spaces that matter to us.
Through this testwe will evaluate how we get along with the lunar function, i.e. how much we can (or not) protect without being blocked or identified with what we care about.
It’s a lot difficult to live without attachment and obtain the correct functioning of this lunar capacity so protective and maternal. Indeed, many times we take refuge in search excessive grooming or extreme dependence in others, in the family or at work.
We often create non-creative need linkswe get stuck roles of protégé or protector“of mother-child”.
In this context, our life remains prey to fear, dependence and the need for recognition; It is difficult for us to be able to develop our interests, desires or projects beyond the security of what is known.
What does the Moon mean for astrology?
THE moonin his role as “to protect”it may be irreconcilable with other planets in our natal chart that would facilitate our outing into the world, towards independent action beyond what is known.
In general, we have fears and we try to control our lifelooking for people or jobs for a absolute protection. The fears that cross us push us to create bonds full of misunderstandings and desire for unconditional belonging.
AS, we design in our couples, in our different roles, or in our ideological principles, a space where we can give ourselves and feel absolutely Contents.
This test it will give us clues about how much we are into the magic filterfor the search for absolute and unconditional care.
In this sense, the more we get visualize, recognize and traverse these universal conditioning and containment fantasies, the better we can contact us with our real needs.

The results
Most Answers 1: Nightmare moon, trapped in your freedom
You don’t recognize yourself as someone who can give protection and care to others, you may not want to be a mother. As a counterpart, the maternal quality appears unconsciously and negatively exaggerated and projected into relationships or institutions.
If you look closely, you may have become an eternal child, trying to give or find unconditional protection and care in companies, professional roles or emotional ties. You claim constraints of total dependence without asking for anything in return. Deep down, you feel that you need to be loved and understood without saying or doing anything for that to happen.
It is difficult for you to accept that they put conditions on you in your areas of belonging. You tend to infantilize your life a lot. You may have some difficulty creating pair bonds in which sexual desire and equality between the two remain active. You tend to create bonds where one acts as a mother to the other, generating the cyclothymia between overflow and lack of passion.
This group may include people who are unable or unwilling to have children, or who experience both psychological and physical difficulties in relation to motherhood itself. It would be interesting to perceive the contradiction between feeling or valuing being a free and seductive person and, at the same time, being trapped in the desire to find absolute protection in a person, profession or company that “provides and resolves All”. .
Most Answers 2: Lunar Alchemy, Interdependent
You try to balance your emotional commitments with your individual development needs. You connect with the pleasure of caring for and protecting others without having the dread of getting entangled in those bonds.
You are aware of the strong desire we all share to find people and places where we feel totally protected. You are cared for, sometimes for pleasure and sometimes as a service, withdrawing when it is no longer needed without feeling abandoned.
You like to see how others grow and take off. You also know how to ask when you need to without feeling bad or depending on it. Experience the double bind of being a developing individual along with the need for relationships of love, care and commitment.
In an eternal question and answer between one’s desires and those of one’s environment, one recognizes terrors and fascinations between “belonging”, feeling protected and the threatening need for one’s freedom. You know the web between security and autonomy is complex for you and for everyone. You are making a nourishing contact in your environment and with the adequate discrimination to develop your individual projects.
Most Answers 3: Charmed by the moon, trapped in protection
It fascinates you to find people and spaces that guarantee absolute care and commitment. You love to feel chosen and contained. Thanks to your accompaniment, others feel better and develop. Care must be taken not to become trapped solely in the role of “protector”, in being just that: “what others need to improve”.
Your priorities happen -exclusively- to be protective. By abandoning yourself to this absolute giver archetype, you are responding to a great collective desire: that there is someone loving and motherly always willing to give and protect. By entering this territory of such a group need, you run the risk of becoming “the very one”.
You enter a story with its development and predictable endings, where everything is already written. The collective desires related to the “maternal role” (finding unconditional care in someone) begin to direct your existence. Your life is blindly driven by unconscious desires, your destiny reproduces an “already written script”.
Your destiny is like any mother’s: to give all of oneself to nurture and care, and then to let go, to be given freedom or “to be abandoned”. Once the child grows up and becomes independent, she no longer needs this all-protective and nurturing function.
The problem is that you experience this feeling of abandonment of what you used to care for in all areas of your life: with partners, friends, employees. It feels like you’ve given everything and then they abandon you. You may hear, “I give everything and they always end up abandoning me or not recognizing me enough.”
