How to Work with Your Moon Sign for Emotional Healing

🌙 How to Work with Your Moon Sign for Emotional Healing

Each month, the Moon returns to the exact position it held at your birth—a moment known as your Lunar Return. This monthly reset offers a powerful window to check in with your emotional body, recalibrate your inner rhythms, and realign with your needs.

At Mountain Freedom Wellness, I offer Lunar Return Readings to help you understand the emotional themes of your month ahead. But even outside of a reading, your natal Moon sign holds the key to your core emotional patterns—and how to heal them.

This guide will help you explore your Moon sign through the lens of emotional healing, ritual, and medical astrology, so you can create practices that truly support your inner world.
