Picture this: You order a lemonade mimosa while at brunch with a potential new friend you met on Bumble BFF when suddenly she asks you about your âBig Threeââa.k.a your Sun, Moon, and Rising signs. If youâre an astrology pro, youâd probably light up with excitement before spilling all of your birth chart knowledge. But if youâre a cosmic newbie, she may as well have been speaking a different language.
So what do these three major determiners of your astrological personality say about you? Your Sun sign ârepresents how you shine outwardly and go after what you desire,â says professional astrologer Erin River Sunday. It reflects your ego, she adds, because of its external nature.
Your Moon sign, on the other hand, relates to your emotional responses and ârepresents your inner realm,â per Sunday. Think: your deepest desires and intuition. The luminary also ârelates to your emotional landscape and how you digest experiences,â Sunday adds.
Lastly, your rising sign is a culmination of how you assert these energies and ârelates to your first impression and the characteristics that define how you show up in the world,â according to Sunday.
