Okay, so I’ve been diving deep into this whole astrology thing lately, and the 10th house moon placement really caught my eye. I mean, your career and public image, mixed with the moon’s emotional vibes? Sounds like a recipe for… something, right? So, I decided to explore it, starting with my own chart, of course.
First Steps: Finding My Moon
First things first, I needed to figure out if I even had a 10th house moon. I dug up my birth chart using one of those free online calculators. You just punch in your birth date, time, and place, and boom – instant cosmic map. It was pretty cool to see it all laid out.
It turns out, yep, my moon is chilling right there in the 10th house. I used Time passages to make my natal chart.

Digging into the Meaning
Next, I started to understand what it all means. I read a bunch of articles and watched some YouTube videos.
- 10th House: This is all about your career, public image, reputation, and how the world sees you. It’s like your “social mask.”
- Moon: This represents your emotions, instincts, and your inner world. It’s how you feel and react on a deeper level.
Putting the two together, a 10th house moon suggests that my emotions are pretty tied to my career and public image. I thought it would be that I get really emotionally invested in my work, and how others perceive me might strongly affect my mood. That is my initial understanding before digging into it more.
Observing My Own Patterns
The real fun began when I started observing my own behavior. I wanted to see if this 10th house moon thing actually played out in my life. So, I grabbed a notebook and started jotting down some observations.
I started tracking how I felt after different work situations:
- Big Presentation: I noticed I was super nervous beforehand, but afterward, if it went well, I felt amazing. Like, on top of the world. If it bombed… well, let’s just say I wasn’t very fun to be around.
- Feedback from my Boss: Positive feedback? Instant mood boost. Critical feedback? I’d dwell on it for days, even if it was constructive.
- Social Media Interactions: I also realised how much a positive reaction to a work that I posted affected me. It means a lot.
Making Some Changes
After a few weeks of tracking, I saw a clear pattern. My emotions were definitely linked to my career and how I thought others saw me. It was kind of intense, to be honest. I don’t want to let it make me down.

So I decided to make a conscious effort to manage this. I started with my natal chart and focused on what aspects can make me more balanced.
I’m still figuring things out, but it’s been a pretty eye-opening experience. Connecting astrology to my real-life experiences made it all feel much more… real. I’m excited to keep exploring and see what else I can learn about myself through this lens. It’s like having a secret decoder ring for my own personality!
