We feel the Moon's gravity more than the Sun's gravity primarily due to its proximity to Earth. The gravitational force decreases with distance, and since the Moon is much closer to us—about 238,855 miles away—its gravitational influence is stronger on our planet. While the Sun's gravity is indeed much stronger overall, its distance (about 93 million miles) diminishes its effect on us compared to the Moon. Thus, the Moon's closer position allows it to exert a more noticeable gravitational pull on Earth.
