When we talk about our star signs, we are mainly speaking about our Sun sign – The position of the Sun when we were born. But there is also your Moon sign, which is just as significant or even more so than your Sun sign. Your Moon sign is dictated by the position of the Moon when you were born.
As the moon moves through the sky during the lunar month, it changes signs approximately every two and a half days. That means, a Scorpio born on the 10th will have a different Moon Sign to a Scorpio born on the 15th.
In some religions the Moon was even more powerful than the Sun. The Romans set aside a sacred feast day for the Moon. The name for it persists to modern times, though we now call it Monday rather than Moon Day.
When gazing at the sky, the Sun and Moon appear to be the same size, visually, the two are equal, the evidence of science states otherwise.
The moon is associated with feminine energy and The Sun is associated with masculine energy. The classic Yin Yang. Everyone contains both masculine and feminine traits, regardless of your gender.
Your Sun sign is the part of you that appears on the surface, it is what everyone else sees. It represents your personality, It’s your soul. Your Moon sign is the part of you that you see, it represents emotions, instincts and the subconscious, It’s your heart. In essence, the Moon represents the side of you that reacts before you have time to think.
Your Moon sign shows how you will get along with someone in a relationship, it’s even more important to know your partners Moon sign than Sun sign. Have you ever met someone with the same Sun sign and found that person to be nothing like you? You probably have different Moon signs.
The Moon in your horoscope modifies your Sun sign; it brings in new forces, motivations and special elements to the character of your Sun sign. Study both your Sun sign and Moon sign and learn the positive and negative sides to these signs and try to recognize these elements within yourself.
Your Moon sign is just as important to who you are as your Sun sign is, and learning about what yours means will shine a whole new light on your personal astrological makeup.

Moon in Pisces
Pisces is the final sign in the zodiac. If you have the Moon in Pisces, you have great empathy and the ability to feel how everyone around you is feeling, simply by being in the same room as them. 
But because you feel other people’s energy so deeply, you must be careful not to sink in a sea of emotions.
After spending time with people, you will need to retreat to a calm quiet place, so you can recharge and the water can settle. This could mean a solo escape into nature, art studio or just inside your imagination. Due to this empathy power of yours, it’s crucial that you keep a peaceful home environment, preferably near water. Pisces takes comfort in their peaceful fantasy world.
As a Moon-in-Pisces person you are also deeply spiritual and philosophical and love sharing your knowledge with others. You are artistic and have a keen love for beauty and the arts. Many Moon-Pisces have careers as actors, writer, composing, or painting.
A peculiar danger for you is that you see the world with romantic glasses on, you see things how you would like them to be rather than how they really are. This romanticism is not apparent on the surface, for you try to keep this part of your nature hidden.
In relationship you are romantic, loving, caring and kind. You do everything you can to make your partner happy. It is in your nature to do this, even if your partner does not do the same. You have a tendency to put your partner’s needs first.
You feel vulnerable and dependent and will build up an elaborate array of defences to avoid being hurt. Once you get past this and trust your partner you will have a truly joyful relationship
Those with Pisces-Moon have a sympathetic heart and a great capacity for doing work good in the world.
