MANY are unaware that the moon can have an influence on our love lives.

But, when it comes to our horoscope chart, the moon and sun can have a big impact on us.

Why is your moon sign important?

Your moon sign is important because it is said to hold the key to understanding your emotions and deeper nature.

According to starslikeyou.com: "In many ways, your moon sign will describe what you do naturally, and your sun sign will point to what you will develop, as well as who you must become."

You can find out your moon sign by calculating your full date, place and time of birth and finding your position around the moon.

The moon moves around the zodiac, visiting each sign for around two to two and a half days.

Which moon signs are compatible in love?

However, you would be perfect with someone who has the same sun sign as your moon sign.

Taurus moon signs, meanwhile, are very strong emotionally, but once they lock horns can be extremely stubborn.

Their best partner may not have to have the looks of a model, but they do have to be groomed at all times.

But on the other side of the spectrum, Virgo moons are less emotional than other signs.

They tend to take off the rose-coloured glasses and see things from a practical perspective.
