INTRODUCING Reading the Stars, The U.S. Sun's new lifestyle column from The AstroTwins, Ophira and Tali Edut.
This week, the AstroTwins are delving into what the Kardashian ladies' star signs say about their parenting styles – including how Aries mama Kourtney is a stickler for rules and structure.
Your zodiac sign – a.k.a. your sun sign – says a lot about your personality, but your moon sign "plays a huge role in a person’s mothering style," say the AstroTwins.
"The moon, which changes zodiac signs every two and a half days, determines how nurturing and maternal you’ll be," they explain.
Kourtney was born on April 18, 1979 – which makes her an Aries with a Capricorn moon.
So what does that mean for what kind of parent she is to Mason, Penelope, and Reign?

DON'T MESS WITH MAMA
"Tough love alert!" warn the AstroTwins.
"The eldest Kardashian sister is a fiercely independent Aries with a tongue that can’t be tamed (er, get a room?).
"But when it comes to parenting Mason, Penelope, and Reign, her
strict Capricorn moon makes her a traditional mom who’s all about rules and structure."
That means "no gluten, dairy, or iPads at this Kardashian’s dinner table" – and not a single McDonald's French fry for a year for son Mason.
"Fortunately, Kourt’s got lucky Jupiter in Cancer, the sign of motherhood, in a playful sector of her chart.
"This balances out the rigid parts of her personality and helps her take motherhood in stride.
"Interestingly, Kris and Kourtney have opposite moon signs, and their
parenting styles are just as polarized.
"As an Aries with a Capricorn moon, Kourtney is no-nonsense about her boundaries.
"She was the first to dial back her demanding reality show role so she could prioritize off-camera time with her kids," say the pros.
Earlier this week, the AstroTwins explored how Libra mama Kim Kardashian's sign means she has a 'permissive' parenting style.
They also explained how Leo mom Kylie Jenner is set to follow in her own mother's momager footsteps and how Khloe Kardashian, a Cancer, is a natural mom and can be both mother and father to her kids.
Check back tomorrow for an insight into Kris' parenting style.
