Alimentation and the Moon
Posted under astrologyJ asks
Can moon tell us what is our attitude toward alimentation?
Alimentation— that’s a good 50 cent word!
(For those of you, like me, who didn’t know: it means eating.)
The answer is Yes. In general Moon in Aries or Moon in aspect to Mars eats fast. Moon in Taurus or in aspect to Saturn eats slowly. I have Moon sq. Venus and the dinner table was abnormally quiet in our family. It was for eating, not for socializing. My BF has Moon trine Jupiter, and dinner has always been a social event in his family. So yes, you can.
These are just a few examples from the top of my head. Do you have any examples from your chart, or charts you know?

My moon is in Scorpio and is square Pluto in Leo. I have a very good stomach and digestion and can eat almost anything—in fact I love most foods. I have to watch how much I eat in regards to the amount of exercise I am doing because it is easy for the pounds to creep on.

My husband and I have moon in Gemini.
He comes up with weird mash-ups. Today he had a leftover salmon patty sandwich with hummus on it.

Hey. This moon eating is interesting. It makes sence that it would be that way. I guess that explains my eating habits. I have a moon in Capricorn, and I always eat the same things. My shopping list is always the same. I do not like to try too many new things. I stick to my familior favorits.

I have my Moon in Aries and I eat like a human vacuum cleaner. I also eat a lot of meat, particularly beef – and physically suffer when I don’t get enough of it. My friends with Aquarius Moons are largely vegans though, and seem to thrive on diets very heavy on salad and fruits.

hi thanks for your posting!
as a native french speaker, i thought i’d clarify this word “alimentation” to better guide our questioner.
the word “alimentation” actually translates better as nutrition. it’s eating in the sense of nourishment but not simply “eating”. that word is “manger”.
maybe the questioner would like insight into whether his/her moon signs gives an indication of nutritional plans he/she might benefit from, eating habits he/she might tend towards, what foods to stay away from, etc.

Thank you darlin.’
Although I posted a French graphic, it is an English word too, and in English, it does mean eating.
Of course, I have no idea if the original poster was a native French speaker or not.

I have a natal 6th house moon in Scorpio and have been struggling with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (“D” predominant) for about 5 years now. :-( I have an especially difficult time digesting spicy or fatty foods. I also had some gall bladder problems about 8 years ago.
