Sun conjunct Moon natal is a powerful blend of the two strongest bodies in astrology. Being born during a new moon or solar eclipse will make you very focused and driven to achieve your goals and meet your high expectations.

Blending the conscious and subconscious makes you charismatic and popular with a powerful presence and forceful character. Luminous and larger than life, you embody the spontaneous energy of the new moon. You have the initiative and conviction to start major projects and see them through to completion. Also, you are not afraid to stand up and take the lead.

You hold a lot of potential energy in your body and will often feel a strong urge to make something happen, to get something started. You have the self-confidence and abilities for this role, but can often be oblivious to how your powerful energy impacts other people’s lives. It is not that you do not care about others; you are unaware of the strong impression you leave on others.

The applying conjunction means you were born on the waning new moon. Being born just before a new moon makes you more self-aware and contemplative. You may be coming to the end of a long cycle of many incarnations. An older soul with an understanding of your place in the larger scheme of things. You may prefer fewer new beginnings, but they will be of greater significance.

The separating conjunction means you were born on the waxing new moon. Being born just after a new moon, you will be eager to make your mark but may have less self-awareness. You may have recently entered into a new large cycle of incarnations. A younger soul with a great sense of adventure and lust for life. You will want to start many new things, but make a few mistakes along the way.

Sun Conjunct Moon Transit

Sun conjunct Moon transit focuses on the most personal areas of life. You will pay more attention to your home, your feelings and emotions, and your close relationships, especially with women. The power of the Sun brings these deeper areas of life to the surface, so that any problems that have simmered there can be resolved positively.

This transit is favorable because of the emotional balance it brings, not irrationally emotional, and not too cold and calculating. This is a perfect time for a level-headed approach to the personal issues mentioned and psychological self-analysis regarding habits and conditioning.

This Direction impaires the health, brings along with it a phlegmaticke alteration of the body and humours, not without disturbance of the head and stomacke with paine and extreame griefe; it duls the eye-sight, and makes blinde, if the Nativity in generall portended such a thing; given to rapine, theft, to travell, waste of substance by his unconstant courses: if Moon be well dignified, it may give a preferment or Office; it notes Marriage, but usually if upon this Direction he marries, she proves Masterfull, arrogant, of a proud spirit, and who will be very imperious over the Native; it notes travell or a journey to be undertaken by him, &c. [Christian Astrology, William Lilly, 1647, p.686.]

This interpretation for Sun conjunct Moon transit can also be applied to a Solar Eclipse and to a New Moon conjunct Moon.
