Hmmmm... I have read that the sun is who others see you as (external) and the Moon is who you see yourself as (internal), which would work both with PM's "more like an aqua(my moon)...even the sun(virgo) is many a times overshadowed by my moon..." comment and cherie's "I relate to my moon sign 90% of the time" comment. It would be interesting to ask those around you which they see more in you (both people you know well and not)... That being said, they are both women (or atleast I am guessing 😉 ).

"i think my rising is leo.(cuz the cancer one doesn't fit me). i love attention, and hate non-attention."

Amusing... I don't suppose you know many Cancers? 😉

"who would you relate to more."

Hmmmm... My rising is Capricorn and my moon is Gemini (and my sun Scorpio). In y younger days, I would say I definitely related far more to my rising sign. The whole serious, responsible, up-tight, you know the "Cappy thing"... While my Cap rising was predominant in my youth and early adulthood, in retrospect, I can see influences of my Gem moon from time to time. As I matured, the roles reversed. I became far less controlling, materialistic, close-minded, and stick-in-the-mudish... I just became more free, easy going, open-minded, laid back, adaptable, go-with-the-flowish, and even open to taking risks and being wild and crazy. But, intriguingly enough, it does say that Cap rising will have a reverse maturation ("Saturn rules this Ascendant, and this generally means a kind of backwards way of living?as children, they are serious and bear a lot of responsibility; and as they grow up, they age beautifully, learning how to loosen up."). All things considered, my lossened up self would most definitely be my Gemini moon... LOL!

But, I love my Gem Moon. It makes me fun and happy and gives me abstract intelligence and great communication skills (considering I am a Scorp, LOL!). And, I love my Scorp Sun. It makes me reflective and emotionally deep. And, I love my Cap Rising (yes! OMG!?!). It keeps me grounded and gives my a great sense of practicality (whether I actually pay attention to it or not, LOL!). I love being me...for all the good, the bad, and the oh so naughty! 🙂

But, to answer your question, I haven't a real clue... Maybe you can figure it out from my post.

My moon is in taurus and the only thing i feel from that is that im stubborn and can sometimes be kinda cold... but then i revert right back to my sun and feel horribly bad about being so cold and then i spend the rest of the day apologizing for it... as for my mars, it's in pisces just like my sun... so do i attract pisces? and as for my venus, it's also in pisces...

sounds like a ball of confusion to me

its not such a bad thing for me to say that i relate to my moon sign aries 90% of time.Im a loving giving person.Everyones personality is different.But if you try to hurt me then ill scorch your A $ $ .I'm aggressive when making decsions especially when it comes to my carrer,my family,and other personal relationships.So being that my sun sign is leo and my moon is aries makes me hell of a woman.Double fire in my chart.I'm a woman who has a lot of passion.I'm glad also that my sun sign is leo-fixed fire because it doesn't allow to slack off when it comes to certain things.Once I start something I have to see it through.basically

My Scorpio rising keeps my outer self 'closed in' most of the time and its quite a contradiction with my gregarious Gemini sun, Moon in Cancer can suggest that I have a sensitive emotional nature - which I am ocssionally; my closed in rising sign mostly indicates that my inner self is vastly different from my natural facade. How much can I relate with my moon sign? I'd say perfectly as this is a very original 'at home' placement.
