How to get closer to your innermost emotions, with Astrologer Lori Reid
Astrology is a deeply fascinating study that works on many levels. It can help explain how and why we do the things we do: our preferences, decisions, how we live, love and respond to external events. As individuals we are complex beings often acting instinctively to people and situations. Why do we react to certain conditions the way we do? Why do our moods change from one day to the next?

Your moon sign will highlight your expectations, your dreams and hopes, what makes you feel good, what nurtures you and in what things or people you find the greatest comfort. The Moon in Taurus, for example, will endow you with very different emotional characteristics to, say, the Moon in Sagittarius. In Taurus, the moon strengthens and stabilises the feelings. A person born with this moon seeks permanence and security in his or her life. This is a very different story from that of the happy-go-lucky individual born under a Sagittarian Moon.
