Planetary Positions, Moon Sign and How They Impact Your Mood and Anger
What makes you angry? Is there anything specific that makes you angry or do you get angry at every drop of a hat? Usually, people do not understand that anger is somehow beyond their control. Anger is an emotion that arises from a deeply upset or troubled state of mind. But why is it that, in the same situation, some get angry and some do not? What influences anger? If you know it is because of the planets, will you not be surprised? You may! Yes, our mind is represented by the moon in Vedic astrology.
Our ancient Vedic astrologers knew that anger emerges from the connection of the body, mind, soul and celestial objects. Every movement, emotion, feeling, and everything we do or feel is connected to the universe. This would surprise many here, but it is a fact. Similarly, the moon plays a crucial role in your mood changes. How your planets and zodiac signs are placed, how they move and where they are placed can reveal your mood changes. Here, we will discuss how planets impact anger.
The Moon Represents the Minds
No matter who you are, your mind is ruled by the moon, according to Vedic astrology. If the moon is afflicted in the native birth chart, the person becomes very sensitive. It is believed that most people have an afflicted moon in their birth chart. However, some may have a major impact due to afflictions. This is caused by a lack of benefic aspects, placements and conjunctions of favourable planets. And in some cases, the affliction is nullified by the influence of auspicious placement, conjunctions and aspects.
Almost every human being experiences anger, but it turns into weakness if it reaches a point of severe wrath and violence. When the Moon is in close proximity to planets like Mars, Mercury, the Sun, Rahu, or Ketu, it can cause mental stress. But this stress doesn’t always mean anger.
When the Moon is affected by a negative planet in a native birth chart and both Mars and the Sun are weak, then the native easily gets angered. Different people express their anger in different ways, and their anger usually depends on the placement of Mars.
Placement of Mars and Anger in Individuals
Individuals with Mars in Cancer on their birth chart may get intensely angry. However, if the same Mar is in Capricorn in an individual’s birth chart, it is a different case. In Vedic astrology, Mars represents action, aggression, passion, war and confrontation. When Mars is in Cancer, it becomes weak, and when it is in Capricorn, it is exalted. Therefore, natives with Mars in Cancer are usually violent when angry, while those with Mars in Capricorn maintain dignity even in anger.
The Role of Second House in Anger
The second house is the house of speech. Therefore, if any negative or unfavourable planet is sitting in the second house or aspecting the second house in an individual’s birth chart, he or she can get angry and use bad words while angry. A malefic planet in the second house means the natives use bad words when they are angry.
Placement of Moon and Anger in Individuals
The moon usually prefers to be in comfortable zodiac signs. When the moon is in Aries, Leo, or Sagittarius in the natives’ chart, it causes a stressful mind. According to Vedic astrology, these are sensitive positions of the moon and hence, natives with this placement can lack peace. However, they are not short tempered. In the same way, if the Moon is influenced by a weak Mars, natives can have uncontrolled anger.
Anger According to the Moon Sign
Aries (Mesh)
The Aries sign or Mesh Rashi, is a fire sign and the natives born in this sign are very sensitive and hence easily get angry. A little park can make them angry, but it is short lived.
Taurus (Vrishabh)
The Moon in Taurus or Vrishabh Rashi, is in a favourable position, hence very powerful. This makes the natives of Taurus very gentle and modest. They usually do not become violent over petty things. However, if they get angry, it becomes uncontrolled.
Gemini (Mithun)
The natives of the Gemini sign or Mithun Rashi, get angry every now and then in a day as they are multitaskers. Due to their strong communication skills, these natives talk a lot when they are angry.
Cancer (Kark)
Individuals born in the Cancer sign or Kark rashi, are usually gentle, but if they get angry, they are uncontrolled. In anger, they have the habit of recalling all previous acts.
Leo (Simha)
The natives of the Leo sign or Simha Rashi, are usually calm. But, just like a lion, they wait for the proper time to take revenge.
Virgo (Kanya)
The natives of the Virgo sign or Kanya Rashi, get angry for a reason. They get into physical violence if they are hurt or misread.
Libra (Tula)
People born in the Libra sign or Tula Rashi, are usually balanced in relationships and hence they do not get angry easily. They try their best to hide it, but once they get angry, they become worse, like Virgo signs.
Scorpio (Vrishchik)
The moon is debilitated in the Scorpio sign or Virshchik Rashi. Therefore, anger management is a challenge for these natives. They will never forget their enemies, hold onto that anger for life and never hesitate to take revenge.
Sagittarius (Dhanu)
These natives born in the Sagittarius sign or Dhanu Rashi, are not so angry by nature. However, they can be rude when they feel annoyed. Sagittarius are usually very high-minded people and hence do not take petty talks.
Capricorn (Makar)
Individuals born in the Capricorn sign or Makar Rashi, may not get angry easily. They usually maintain patience even when they are intensely angry.
Aquarius (Kumbh)
These people born in the Aquarius sign, or Kumbh Rashi, are happy-go-lucky people and anger is something they do not like. However, if there is a little spark, they can get intensely angry.
Pisces (Meen)
Individuals born in the Pisces sign or Meen Rashi, are more emotional than angry. They do get angry, but they also get moody at the same time.
