Sun Sextile Moon

Sextile of the Sun: An incorrect choice most often signifies not frivolity or an error, but betrayal of one’s God. The Sun sextile gives a person, in the areas governed by the planet, opportunities whose realization will require willpower and initiative from him; it is also likely that in the course of working through these opportunities, he will have to face rather rigid, imperative circumstances that, however, will not be hostile to him—in fact, they will be potentially friendly—but will still demand a certain approach and mutual adaptation. The Sun sextile, as it were, throws a masculine challenge to the person (in the areas corresponding to the planet), offering to test the presence of a will capable of overcoming obstacles and establishing cooperation; the obstacles here are understood as non-antagonistic, and the cooperation is assumed to be beneficial and effective. If a person does not feel ready to accept this challenge, he can decline it: once, twice, three times... Over time, such a consistent refusal to accept any constructive offers from fate begins to work against the person; he degenerates and falls into rigid karmic programs in which his choices are minimal or nonexistent. On the other hand, the Sun sextile provides a very valuable opportunity to work out its principle, that is, one’s will, in the course of constructive activity related to the planet. By resolving the internal problems that arise in connection with such activity, a person learns to direct their will correctly, gains the ability to determine which egregore it is directed by, and aligns it with external circumstances and various subconscious programs. For example, the Sun–Moon sextile is a highly promising aspect; in particular, it offers great opportunities for both physical and spiritual development. At a high level, it is an aspect of spiritual teachers who are well-versed in the relationship between the higher and lower principles in a particular person and know how to set them on a constructive path of evolutionary development inherent to them. Sextile of the Moon: By overcoming one’s laziness, a person gives an impetus to social development. This aspect provides prospects for subconscious development in the areas governed by the planet. For example, with the Moon–Mars sextile, a person will repeatedly have the opportunity in life to engage in increasing their physical strength and agility (an aspect of athletes), as well as mastering skills that require significant subconscious participation (developing clear conditioned reflexes); for example, these are various working professions: locksmiths, turners, drivers (especially with the Moon in the 8th house), and so on. The Moon sextile offers great prospects for spiritual development, as it provides an opportunity to constructively work through purely egoistic subconscious programs by transmuting them into higher vibrations and elevating the person to a broader way of seeing the world (and their participation in the evolutionary process). For example, the Moon–Venus sextile gives real opportunities to move from a passive-consumer attitude toward love and art (which will, in any case, play a significant role in a person’s life) to an actively creative one: a person will have the chance (if they so desire) not only to be passively in love with another but also, through their love, to rebuild them anew, at least to truly help in their spiritual development and transformation of ego programs—theirs and, at the same time, their own. Similar effects will be observed in aesthetic development—a person will not only be interested in art and enjoy it to the extent of their understanding (which is characteristic of a trine); they will often feel that merely perceiving others’ paintings is not enough, and fate will provide them with various opportunities to participate in artistic creation, musical activity, and so on, which will require certain efforts from them but will bring immense inner satisfaction and, what is very important for them, a much deeper understanding of art (with the Moon–Venus trine, these issues usually do not arise: a person is perfectly content with their level of perception of art, other people, and Divine love). Neglect and persistent ignoring of the opportunities offered by the Moon sextile eventually lead to deep dissatisfaction with life and oneself (which is often projected onto others) and the triumph of superficial egoism in the areas governed by the planet. Working through this aspect not only fosters subtle creative development of the planet’s principle but also contributes to the person’s overall spiritual growth, linked to the constructive transformation of lower subconscious programs.

Trine, sextile: they usually testify to psychological balance and excellent adaptability. A person with this orientation is drawn to the search for harmony, able to feel and reason by analogy, seeking similarities and likenesses, but inclined to reject anything that does not conform to his ideal representations. His sensitivity and imagination are combined with a sense of reality. He is able to achieve harmony in a union with another person, if the other details of the chart do not contradict this; this union is preferable to solitude and better than a large society. He genuinely believes that there are no differences between people of different sexes that could prevent them from finding a common language and living in harmony. He wants to achieve success in both public and family life, without sacrificing either one. Astrological tradition says that these aspects in a person's chart are a sign of agreement between parents. It seems that this is not true - at least, not in our time, when divorces are so common and distort the entire picture. In fact, it would be more correct to assume that for someone with a harmonious Sun-Moon aspect in their chart, even quarrels between parents, which he witnesses, are an additional stimulus to seek harmony and believe in it.

Aspects ensure popularity, peace of mind, and happiness. They symbolize moderate vanity and a thirst for fame, with the individual achieving success without much effort. There is a harmonious balance between will and emotions, help from friends arrives promptly, home life is well-established, and daily life presents no particular difficulties. A significant problem is a tendency toward apathy and excessive complacency at times when determination, persistence, and self-confidence are required. Such a person's vitality is noticeably enhanced, they possess an enviable propensity to achieve prosperity in all things, and a well-developed sense of unity and integrity. In life, such people often experience considerable success and widespread recognition. They are usually stable, their life is balanced and calm, and even when their usual well-being is disrupted, their strength and order are restored fairly quickly. Their family life and relationship with their mother are prosperous, their marriage is often successful, and they have favorable relationships with their spouse's parents. Aspects promote mental balance, stability in health and determine the ability to follow family and historical traditions, as well as generally accepted norms in general.

Promises favorable opportunities, friendship with the opposite sex. A good marriage. Loved and respected everywhere. If there are no conflicting aspects, good parents. Bonds of friendship and love with family and the partner's family, as well as patriotism. Good health and vitality. Psychological balance. Harmony of feelings and will, conflict-free development. Note: Since Mercury's orbit is close to the Sun's, it cannot have any aspects to the Sun other than conjunctions. Venus and Mercury are no more than 76 degrees apart; conjunctions, sextiles, and parallels are possible between them. This book only covers the main aspects. Venus also has only a conjunction with the Sun (of the main aspects).

This Sun-Moon alignment brings a fullness of life, harmony of soul and body, consistency, balance; health and well-being, and rapid recovery from illness. This includes self-esteem, a large number of friends, work for the good of society and people; success in collaboration and partnership, a happy marriage, and early success in life. Sincerity and adaptability. The downside of this aspect is that easy success with the opposite sex can lead to instability in marriage, cheating, adultery, and inconsistency in feelings. Easy success in life can lead to a lack of desire for self-improvement, spiritual growth, and spiritual slumber. Life is a dream, albeit a good one.

A special affinity for old people and for children, plus an innate love of animals, the helpless, and the underdog. An inner vision coupled with the ability to see the "Big" picture often finds you working as a go-between with others.
