White Moon Selena: Illuminating Your Soul Path with The Light Side of The Moon
Mar 03, 2024White Moon Selena is one of my favorite astrological points to include in many of my client readings, because so often we are needing guidance on our soul path, our soul missions, and how to illuminate aligned decisions on our journey.
White Moon Selena is an often overlooked part of the chart. I find many are interested in Black Moon Lilith but maybe haven't even heard of White Moon Selena!
White Moon Selena focuses on a very positive area of your chart where you have beneficial energy. White Moon Selena is a protector, and wants you to find your soul path, so it tries to light the way for you. This superblog will help you learn everything you need to know about the light side of the moon and how we can use this symbolism to support our soul's most optimal path.
WHAT IS WHITE MOON SELENA?
The White Moon Selena, often simply referred to as Selena, is a hypothetical point in one's natal chart. White Moon Selena is the perigee of the Moon, which is the point on the Moon's orbit closest to Earth. The point on the Moon farthest away from Earth is the apogee and, in astrology, represents Black Moon Lilith. So White Moon Selena is the "light" side of the moon to Black Moon Lilith's "dark" side of the moon.
In astrology, Selena is a position that can show where you have protection and can see your path. Selena is seen as a highly positive, beneficial position in astrology, and when you resonate with your White Moon Selena energy, you can feel intuitively guided throughout your life.
It symbolizes purity, spirituality, and the untainted essence of the soul. Unlike other astrological points that might be influenced by external factors, Selena remains untouched, representing our spiritual mission and the purest form of our soul's intentions.
The White Moon Selena represents the purest part of one's soul and spiritual purpose. Each Selena sign is linked with specific spiritual attributes and life missions.
To determine your Selena sign, you need your birth details - Date, Exact Time, and Location. Then you can go to this White Moon Selena Sign calculator HERE>>>
Simply input your birth details, and the calculator will reveal your Selena sign. This is the most accurate White Moon Selena Calculator I have found if you don't have professional astrology software.
Once you've calculated your Selena sign, then you can start innerstanding the symbolism and implications. Each Selena sign is linked with specific spiritual attributes, missions, and lessons. Innerstanding this can guide you on your spiritual journey, point you towards your higher calling and the ultimate purpose of your soul in this incarnation.
It's essential to remember that while your Selena sign provides deep spiritual insights, it's just a fragment of the vast astrological landscape. Exploring other signs, like your sun sign, moon sign, and really your entire chart with fixed stars can offer a more comprehensive innerstanding of your astrological identity.
Let's explore what it means to have a prominent White Moon Selena in your natal chart. Below I cover White Moon Selena through the 12 Zodiac Signs
SIGNS OF A PROMINENT WHITE MOON SELENA
While all White Moon Selena placements will give us great insight, some natal Selena placements are especially prominent and heightened in the horoscope.
How do you know if you have a strong White Moon Selena in the natal chart?
You may have a prominent natal White Moon Selena if it is:
- Conjunct (within 1-2º) a personal planet (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars)
- Conjunct one of the angles (1st, 4th, 7th, 10th house cusps or AC, DC, MC, IC)
- Conjunct the ruler of the Ascendant
- Conjunct one of the Lunar Nodes (the point's in the Moon's orbit where the Moon crosses the ecliptic; are spiritual/karmic in nature)
- In the 1st house
- Anaretic (at 29º)
- At the Aries Point (0º of a cardinal sign, Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn)
- Conjunct prominent fixed stars (Aldebaran, Regulus, Antares, Fomalhaut, Sirius, Arcturus, Pleiades)
- Conjunct a Black Hole (Galactic Center, Super Galactic Center, The Great Attractor, Cygnus X-1)
Any of these can add some juice to your natal White Moon Selena and make the energy stronger for you.
What does it mean to have a strong White Moon Selena in the natal chart?
When you have a strong White Moon Selena, you usually have a very strong intuition and probably also have a wide range of psychic or extrasensory gifts like clairvoyance, clairaudience, clairsentience, and more. Even if you don't think of yourself as "psychic" these might be worth learning more about and activating to support your soul's path.
You're someone who intuitively senses the right answers, the right direction, the right choices - you just have to learn to follow that nudge more often! You may also be someone who can guide and protect others. Since Selena shines a light on our path and protects us along the way, you may seem like that kind of person. You can show others the right way to go in their lives, and help them as they progress. You can be a great cheerleader, and may support someone (or multiple someones) throughout your life. You just need to make sure you have healthy boundaries so others don't take advantage of this.
Subconsciously, you may feel like you always have someone watching over you. If you're spiritually inclined (which tends to be the case with a strong White Moon Selena), you may see angels, connect with spirits, and sense or talk to your guardians on the other side.
Being protected physically in this life may have its challenges though, and you may find you have to learn how to protect yourself instead of relying on others. People may see you as someone capable of taking care of themselves, so they don't need to help you. Learning how to ask for help may also be something you have to do.
With a strong White Moon Selena, you may be someone who has a really strong sense of purpose. With Selena lighting our path in life, you may feel keenly aware of your path all of your life. You may resist this until you're comfortable with it and accept it, but once you do, it may seem like all of the pieces in your life come together nicely, and you feel a strong connection to who you're supposed to be and what you're supposed to be doing.
You may take action with your White Moon Selena when the transit (moving) planets are activating it, and you can get on your path and be a guardian for others.

Harmonious aspects (conjunctions, sextiles, and trines) can make you feel more protected and guided, while aspects that require you to take action or be more aware (squares and oppositions) can make you feel less psychically activated in a sense.
