Moon in House 9

Moon represents your emotions, your instincts and what makes you feel safe. House 9 is the house of wide horizons: long journeys, higher learning, faith and philosophy. It's the search for meaning and for a truth greater than the everyday.

In the ninth house — of long journeys, of faith, of high study and of sacred things — the Moon is cadent, and therefore disposes of only a quarter of its strength. It is, however, a good house, a place of the heights, the joy of the Sun, turned toward God and toward knowing. Determined to long journeys, the Moon, the luminary of movement, inclines to a life of many travels and changes of land, perhaps to dwell far from the origin, at the mercy of tides that draw it afar. It gives a religious and devout soul, sensitive to the sacred, prone to dreams and visions and to believing with feeling more than with reason. It favours dealing with foreign lands, with pilgrimages and with masters of faith. The heart seeks meaning and breadth beyond the known. The mother may be bound to journeys, to foreigners or to religion. A house of the far and of the heights, where feeling becomes devotion and a road.
