Be(e)n contemplating this thread for a few days; did some extra reading and listening. Just wanted to throw this out there, see what you guys think.

I?ve always seen the Ascendant / Chart Ruler as our physical body, the ship we sail in; the vehicle we should use in order to travel towards the truth, our Sun; our Soul.

I think the Moon is the only psychological point in our horoscope. Habits and behaviours are a direct result of our psychological make-up. Moon is our ego, our mind. If the Moon travels the most degrees, and goes through the most phases each month, it can be the only body that matches the continual daily/weekly/monthly evolution of our ever changing psychology, based on the exposure to the 5 elements; the material world.

So what impacts our Moon the most; aspects, the sign, the house, the fixed star?

I now see how the POF would influence our psychology and it is an interesting lesson; thank you, Ben.
