Planetary Relationship

When Sun is in Aries while Moon is in Leo then these planets form the 5th and 9th relationship dispositions with respect to each other.

To be more specific, Leo Moon is in 5th sign from Aries Sun. When taking Leo Moon as the reference point, then Aries Sun is in the 9th sign from it.

According to the temporary relationship rule of astrology, planets occupying the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 10th, 11th, and 12th place from each other are temporary friends.

Other dispositions than these create temporary enmity between planets concerned which in the case are the Sun and the Moon.

Accordingly, Aries Sun and Leo Moon are temporary enemies that reflect in occasionally occurring internal conflicts of individuals with this combination.

More specifically, as Sun signifies soul and gut feelings while Moon signifies mind or cognitive reasoning, this temporary enmity shows that their ideas and thoughts are often in conflict with what they believe and feel.

Regarding this specific set of combinations, the internal conflict is caused by fundamental differences between the zodiac signs Aries and Leo.

This internal conflict can at times lead to intense agony and anger which should not last for long nor cause any damage to themselves, goals, or their surroundings because Sun is dignified.

Namely, the cardinal zodiac sign Aries is action and change-oriented while fixed Leo prefers resistance to change.

This shows that before these natives make a decision, they struggle a lot secretly between taking action or not.

The actions they want to take can be in conflict with their conservative thoughts.

However, what gives a certain amount of relief to this enmity is the fact that both signs represent the same fire element which means that these natives are very adventurous from soul and way of thinking.

It shows that they are able to overcome their internal conflicts with ease and through the difficulties find the best possible options and directions towards which to strive.

5th & 9th Dispositions Analysis

When looked at the 5th and 9th relationships from a deeper perspective, a lot of valuable interpretations can be derived.

Even though these dispositions create temporary enmity, they give various good results.

That is because both 5th and 9th houses are benefic trine or Trikona Bhava houses which belong to the triangle of righteousness or Dharma Trikona.

This supports Aries Sun tremendously because their action-taking and leadership abilities are enhanced by originality which helps them to prosper with ideas and undertakings which are unique and clearly stand out from the masses.

The 5th disposition hemmed between two fire sigs, it shows that the expression of emotions of these individuals is extremely fiery, hot-tempered, and straightforward.

The 9th disposition represents the strongest 9th trine house or Trikona Bhava which signifies ethics, morals, philosophy of life, higher wisdom, spirituality, righteousness, faith, luck, fortune, etc.

When considering the fact that Sun is a spiritual planet while Aries denotes righteousness, the 9th disposition enhances their sense of morals, ethics, and respect towards righteousness tremendously.

Phases of Moon

When Sun is in Aries while Moon is in Leo, it means that Moon is ahead of Sun from an astronomical perspective.

This also means that Moon is in a waxing state which is considered to be auspicious as per Vedic sidereal astrology.

Aries Sun combined with Leo Moon gives the possibility of formation of the Waxing Gibbous phase.

Waxing Gibbous

This lunar phase comes right after First Quarter and before Full Moon which makes this phase all about criticism, perfectionism, attention to detail, and discipline in order to make planned matters happen.

When considering the fact that these individuals carry double the energies of fire element and leadership qualities, this lunar phase increases their aggression and criticism.

Their expression sounds very commanding and domineering. Herein dignified Sun indicates that their criticism is motivated by good intentions to reevaluate and improve their surroundings.

They take their responsibilities seriously and a slight mistake can make them furious.

They have very sharp attention to detail and if notice any flaw, they either respond strictly or become hard on themselves.

They often strive for perfect results which is another evidence of their internal conflict combined with this critical lunar phase.

However, perfectionism does not exist which means that they irritate their own selves with their thoughts about it.

On the other hand, Aries Sun gives them tremendous passion and motivation to take action which shows that they are able to achieve near-perfect results in everything they undertake.

The Waxing Gibbous lunar phase makes the Moon very bright, which dominates the darker side of it.

This reflects their incredible independent nature which complements Aries Sun, which makes them already very independent and adventurous, greatly.

Their mindsets are very strong and rarely influenced by their surroundings. They also tend to rely more on their own thoughts and ideas rather than those of others.

Aries Sun & Leo Moon Yoga

Another important astrological combination formed by Sun and Moon with respect to each other is Nitya Yoga.

Sun and Moon are luminaries and thus the primary indicators of the personality of a person and the distance or exact degrees between these luminaries create a specific Yoga which gives additional information about the person.

This is why Aries Sun in combination with the Leo Moon people are not all the same and still have differences in their mentalities and general behaviors.

In this article, we shall learn about 3 Nithya Yoga combinations which can be formed by Aries Sun and Leo Moon.

Vriddhi

Vriddhi is the 11th Nitya Yoga combination which is governed by the natural benefic planet Mercury. It is considered one of the auspicious Nitya Yoga combinations.

The generic effect of Vriddhi Yoga is to amplify, increase, and ascend. With the general effect of this Yoga, these natives always strive to become better versions of themselves.

With Aries Sun, they also take action when they see an opportunity to improve specific issues around them.

When combining this effect with Aries Sun and Leo Moon, it is clear that it increases the effects of 5th and 9th relationships or dispositions.

That is to say, it makes them very spiritual, wise, fortunate, domineering, enterprising, and expressive.

As this Sun Moon Yoga combination is governed by Mercury, it also increases the intelligence of these individuals.

Besides that, it also makes them more flexible and gives relief to their fixed and stubborn nature provided by Leo Moon.

Dhruva

Dhruva is the 12th Nitya Yoga combination which is governed by the blindly courageous and spiritual astrological entity South Node Ketu.

Dhruva Nitya Yoga is considered to be auspicious because it denotes stability and persistence.

This Yoga empowers the traits of fixed Leo Moon by making these natives especially loyal and firm.

They stick to their decisions very strongly and willing to protect their viewpoints and beliefs with the unshakable courage of Ketu.

As South Node Ketu is a highly spiritual planet, it also empowers the already spiritual Aries Sun. It also supports the 9th disposition of spirituality and higher wisdom.

Such individuals are very selfless and detached from most of the worldly matters which makes them very respected and trusted by the surrounded people.

As Dhruva Yoga suggests, it also makes them very persistent. They rarely quit on their obligations and goals even when situations are difficult and odds against them.

Vyaghata

Vyaghata is the 13th Nitya Yoga combination which is governed by the natural benefic planet Venus. Despite this, it is considered to be one of the malefic Sun Moon Yoga combinations.

As the name of this combination suggests, the generic effect of Vyaghata Yoga is to abolish, discharge, restrict, and nullify.

As the effect suggests, it makes these natives rather aggressive and excessively critical. They are fond of causing obstacles to others.

However, a dignified Sun in Aries gives positive intonation to this effect. Namely, they are fond of stopping, punishing, and terminating everything that is bad for ethics, morals, and righteousness (9th).

When in authoritative positions, they tend to be involved with activities where they have to use their merciless and strict side to obstruct the bad forces.

This Nitya Yoga resonates well with overall energies provided by Aries Sun in combination with Leo Moon.

More specifically, the double fire element and hot-tempered nature they carry are well supported by this Nitya Yoga.

It gives them possibilities to express their fierce and aggressive side with maximum potential and for good purposes.
