Conclusion
Of course, not all sun signs behave in the same way because we are comprised of more than our sun sign. If someone is emotional about something, you can look at their moon sign to understand why their feathers are ruffled and smooth things out. Also it’s very important to recognize we all have insecurities which are displayed through our rising sign.
The mask we put up to the world is our rising sign and that could also influence the way we throw a dinner party. Try asking people what their primal triad is the next time they throw a dinner party and see how the sun, moon and rising signs affect their approach to entertaining!
This could also be a great conversation at dinner if you ask each person what their style of throwing a dinner party is. Getting to know each sign can be fun! Check out this fun article to Find Your Zodiac Role Model.
