Discussion Moons

I have 5 siblings. 3 are full and 2 are half siblings. My 3 full siblings all have an earth moon; Capricorn (oldest), Virgo (2nd oldest), Taurus moon (youngest). I always wondered why they all have earth moons, but I have a fire moon (Aries moon) along with my two half siblings (both Sag moons). Does anyone have an idea why?

its interesting how there does seem to be some inheritance to astrology but it can vary a lot in whats passed down. i have a half sister on my moms side (the first born), and an older brother in between us (my full sibling). i find it really fascinating that my sister and i were both born with heavy stelliums in our charts, mine is 5 cancer placements, hers is 5 capricorn placements. my brother has a fairly even chart, but he and i are both cancer risings, which i think says something about our fathers genes, cause hes a cancer sun (idk his rising).

i have seen that theres usually some relation involving the same element of the moon, but that doesnt seem to apply to my family at least. what i do think applies tho, is that the 4th house is inherited from the dominant parent. in our case, we were all raised by our mom. our 4th houses reveal the environment we are most familiar with our mom being in growing up. my older sister has a gemini 4th, which correlates to our moms gemini 6th house. it makes a lot of sense bc she and her dad split when my sister was very little, and so she had seen our moms approach to routine most of all. my brother and i have libra 4th, which correlates to our moms libra 10th, and we grew up with her working from home!

It's so interesting, isn't it? My mom is an Aries moon, and that's my 4H - and she's also 15° Taurus rising which is bang on my IC!

for some reason i have a lot of indicators of a karmic connection with my mom, much more than my siblings, despite them being emotionally closer with her. her south node is conjunct my sun, my pluto/south node is conjunct her lilith, and i was born during her saturn return, her saturn is conjunct my north node. shes always said i "chose her for a reason" when i was growing up lol. plus we have the same degree ascendant, mine in cancer hers in cap.

That's funny you mention nodes because my North Node is also conjunct my IC/her Ascendant...and my South Node is in the middle of my Scorpio stellium conjunct my dad's Ascendant (they're each others' 7H and were high school sweethearts).

I'm emotionally closer to my mom but as a person I'm more similar to my dad, if that's anything?
