Well, listen to our conversation with long-time guest of the pod The Lilith Therapist—Lisa Broggi, therapist, astrologer, 12th House guide in which we go deep with the moon as a secret love language!About Our GuestLisa Broggi — therapist, astrologer, and The Lilith Therapist — is back on Parts & Charts, and we went deep on the moon. Not just the sign, but the whole picture: house placement, aspects, conditions, and what it actually means to honor what your moon needs in relationships, in self-care, and in the recurring patterns you might not even recognize yet.Lisa has a clinical eye for the moon as a tool in therapeutic work — she calls it a “therapy gold mine” — and this conversation showed exactly why. We talked about how the moon reveals your core emotional needs, what happens when those needs go unmet, and how the protective patterns that formed early in life show up in your closest relationships. KP brought the Hellenistic framework (dignities, rulerships, why Scorpio moon gets a bad rap it doesn’t fully deserve) and Chelsea brought the relational and somatic grounding. Lisa brought everything she knows about actually working with this in a room with clients.We also did a rapid-fire pass through all twelve moon signs — what each one needs, how it moves, and where it can tip into shadow. It was a lot. In the best way.Topics Covered* The moon as a map of core emotional needs — and why it might matter more than Venus in relationships* House placement as the arena where your moon needs to be fed* Moon sign synastry: what compatibility actually looks like, and why tension isn’t disqualifying* The shadow side of every moon — not as a verdict, but as a starting point for the work* Saturn, Pluto, and Jupiter aspecting the moon: what gets restricted, intensified, or amplified* A full pass through all twelve moon signs: needs, self-care, and what gets in the way* How your moon’s ruling planet points toward what kind of movement, creativity, or expression supports your emotional healthRapid-Fire Moon Sign NotesAries — needs movement and autonomy; one step at a time; Mars-ruled instinct over strategyTaurus — sensory comfort, downtime, stability; exalted moon; shadow is rigidity, not restGemini — Mercury-ruled; needs someone (or something) to bounce off of; language as emotional processingCancer — narrative and story as emotional access; the body as a way to close the loop; deeply feeling, needs to feel safe doing soLeo — expression, appreciation, being seen; generosity as self-care; the sun as literal nourishmentVirgo — Mercury-ruled in an earth body; grounding the mind in highly personal, non-prescribable waysLibra — relational processing; justice and fairness as emotional stakes; watch for conflict avoidance as the defaultScorpio — trust is the core need, full stop; emotional safety before depth is possible; not a bad placement — a rigorous oneSagittarius — expansiveness, adventure, growth; fire sign that moves at its own tempo; needs roomCapricorn — perspective, projects, purposeful solitude; slower movement (yoga, weightlifting, rowing); loves something to buildAquarius — lone wolf and community animal at once; individuality within belonging; genuinely cares, reads as aloofPisces — sensitivity that requires real tending; energy hygiene, healthy escapisms; body as barometerHomework from LisaThink of a past relationship that didn’t work — a hard one. If you can, find their chart. Look at their moon sign. See what you can learn about what needs were in the room that never got acknowledged. You don’t have to be kind to the relationship to be honest about what it was teaching you.About Lisa Broggi, The Lilith TherapistLisa is a licensed therapist, astrologer, and the creator of the Feed Your Moon workshop.
