If the moon is in the 1st house, the native will be very beautiful with a fair complexion but will be unsteady mentally. They will have feminine features and thinking patterns regardless of sex. The person may suffer from health difficulties and constitution-related problems, but will be happy at places near a water body. They will travel a lot when they are teenagers. If the moon is in Aries, Taurus, or Cancer, the native will be well-versed in scripture, be wealthy, happy, and soft-spoken. The person will have soft skin but will not be intelligent unless aspected by a benefic. In all other signs, the person will not speak much and will be insane, base-minded or mean, unintelligent, foolish, and servile. They will also be weak-bodied, poor, and will have hearing problems. They will, however, also be polite/pleasant in nature and will be sensitive and romantic. If the moon is aspected by benefics, the native will be powerful, wise, intelligent, healthy, wealthy, and clever in conversation. If the lord of the lagna is weak, there will be health problems, but a benefic aspect will reduce or eliminate this.
If the moon is waxing, the native’s body is strong; they will be brave, wealthy, and long-lived. If born during the first 8 days of the waxing period, though, they will be depressed and weak. They will also have to be careful of accidents, respiratory illness, thieves, and punishments from the government (fines, arrests). The same applies if the moon is waning, but on top of these, the person will be fearful, physically weak/lethargic, and there could be a threat to lifespan. Even if a benefic aspects this waning moon, especially if the waning moon is not in the 3 auspicious signs, the person will be so sensitive that their own mind can cause severe health problems to them. Such a person requires strong emotional and physical protection by their mother and partner; ideally, their “guardian” should have a strong Sun influence. They will likely be close to their mother anyway, especially if a male is born with the moon here.
They are favored by Devi and Lord Krishna. They may be prone to fainting, blood-related disorders, general tiredness, enlargement of the spleen, typhoid, systemic diseases, breathing problems, parasites and intestinal defects, tumors, excessive sleep or sleeping disorders, runny nose, headaches, and other conditions represented by the moon depending on the sign. They also have a tendency to be dramatic, though they don’t believe in fighting. They may be wanderers and fickle-minded by nature. They are generally submissive and unpredictable and will like to travel.
They may experience strange phenomena when they sleep, like sleep paralysis, sleep walking, insomnia for no reason, seeing shadows on waking up, having nightmares, repetitive self-harming dreams, etc.. It is recommended for a moon in the first house person to wear a silver amulet with a pearl embedded in it.
They will be very nurturing and intuitive, especially if placed in nakshatras Mrigashira, Ashlesha, Purva Phalguni, Anuradha, Jyestha, Purva Bhadrapada, Revathi, etc.. They may like sweets, milk products, and vegetables (most of these people tend to be vegetarian).
If the moon is with Gulikan, especially in a sign other than the auspicious three, both the native and their mother experience problems from ghosts, black magic, etc.. Their mother might even be possessed by a spirit or a spirit may follow her. That same spirit follows the native as well in many cases.
If the moon is debilitated or in an enemy rashi, the person is likewise prone to the same. While they can become very good mediums, they are prone to having spirits harass them because the “sheet” between the physical and “astral” worlds is very thin for these people. This gets mislabeled as either schizophrenia or some mysterious health ailment. If the moon is in Scorpio or Capricorn in this house, the person becomes abusive and intoxicated.
If in Gemini, Virgo, Libra, or Aquarius, the person becomes talented at astrology and philosophy. They will be talkative and speak several languages. If in Cancer or Pisces, the person will be affectionate, virtuous, religious, popular, adored, attached to family and the home, etc.. If in Taurus, the native will be impulsive, determined, persistent, industrious, have a lofty conduct, will have great concentration in their mind, and will be lucky and prosperous. They are loving, truthful, and gentle.
If the moon is full or waxing while still retaining most of its illumination, the person will have the ability to overcome harassment by the spirits. They will become handsome and wealthy, but delicate. Same applies if the moon is aspected by a very strong benefic (e.g., Jupiter in the 9th).
These people are very concerned about their physical appearance, as they always want to be youthful. They often like clothes, perfume, sensuality, shopping, interior design, etc. depending on the nakshatra and sign. Remember that while a king (sun) can live anywhere in any condition, the queen (moon) is the one that makes even the most miserable condition livable.
