Aries Moon - this is a new love. this is being stuck in the honeymoon phase. it’s a million kisses, everywhere you go. it’s the rain on your skin. it’s both cold and hot, the love swings you everywhere.

Taurus Moon - this is the love of adventure mixed with stability. even just staying home feels like a brand new day with your eyes wide open. they want to take photos of you all day long, because they’re in love with your beauty. they know how to make you fall in love with yourself.

Gemini Moon - this love feels like freedom. you’re flying through the sky on a private jet, and joining the mile high club. they are so intelligent and this love is talking. you talk through everything, and you find yourself surrounded by a dozen love letters they’ve made for you.

Cancer Moon - this love feels like home. this is your mom’s home cooked meals, and your grandma’s secret recipes. it’s always having a pair of arms to fall into. it’s softness and sugar and sweetness. it’s feeling like you’re always gonna be accepted and have a place to go, no matter what.

Leo Moon - this is the love for royals. you will be treated like you’re fit for the throne. they will show you off to all their friends and all over their social media, and don’t be surprised when they brag about your accomplishments as if they were their own! they will shower you in compliments and gifts.

Virgo Moon - an organized love. they plan the dates in advanced, and keep a calendar marked with all the significant events in the relationship (including things you may not find significant!). they show their love by collecting little items from your dates and storing them away. this love is having someone bend over backward for you time and time again.

Libra Moon - this love is very forgiving. it feels like makeup sex and dressing up for fancy dates. this is being spoiled, and being taken out all the time. money is no concern for them, when it comes to love, and they will lavish it all on you. they want you to be happy, in all scenarios.

Scorpio Moon - such a beautiful love. they will make you happy like no one else. they will be loyal to an extent you haven’t seen before, and stick by your side through everything. nothing scares them away, no matter how bad or evil you’ve been. once they love you, they love you.

Sagittarius Moon - this is a wild love. adventure at every corner. this is cruising down the Caribbean with a wine glass in hand, and their head resting on your thigh. this is tan lines and beach bodies. this is diving off cliffs thirty feet up and going skydiving. everything is exhilarating, and their love is no different.

Capricorn Moon - very stable love. they want to take care of you, and will go to the ends of the earth for you. sometimes they may seem a little stern, but in the cold, you will find the fire lighting up inside them. they keep you warm, through everything. it’s being protected, so long as they are by your side.

Aquarius Moon - this is a slow-pace love. heavy platonic, friends to lovers energy. even in the worst fights you have with them, you know they are still your best friend and will support you. it is a slow-burn, something that continues to blossom over time only to become more and more beautiful as the years pass.
