As of late I've been frying my brain with this one. Is Moon in Aquarius a bad placement for a woman's chart? :unsure:

Well, women are always more connected to the moon, they "show" their moon quite often. For exemple, no one thinks it's weird for a woman to cry or have touchy feely moments. Nope, it's perfectly natural, the moon is expected from them. The inverse is not true however. A woman with a stoic face is plain weird, it's cold. Some say that women with Aquarius moon can be masculine in relation to feelings, double so if the moon has some hard aspects. So I come back to the question is aqua moon a bad placement for a woman?

Hmm, my moon's at 0 degrees aquarius... yeah, I'd say it can be a bit of a hindrance, I actually have to work at not distancing myself too much... it's hard for me to care about people except as a group. I want to think about the best things for people to improve their lives, but I.. if I am honest, I would say I actually don't care about them as individuals, and that sounds horrible, but that's how i am.

I buy my cousins clothes and toys and things that want, but I don't want their hugs, and often reply with "quit being gay" when they thank me more than once. I just feel there's a disconnect and oftentimes when other people are crying over the dead or tragedies in the country, I question if they're faking it, because *I* don't feel it, you know?

Of course, my venus is in the 12th, but this moon ain't helping...

Yeah, I tend to do the same thing too. Sometimes I get very disturbed with myself because when people die even if close to me like parents etc. I don't feel anything! Even when Pluto kicks ppl out of my life I don't seem to mind much. I feel like an alien :pouty:

Another thing I heard this moon does is make the person react the way people expect her to react or if she can't do it she just blanks out. Or in true aqua fashion the moon likes to contradict.

Ppl hate giving me gifts because I don't seem to be happy. I have to force it so they won't feel im ungrateful when in truth I am happy I just don't feel like making a show of it. And that's cause I have moon in the 3rd house! I should be able to express my feelings quite well.

I knew this moon was horrible for me when i had to go to the therapist and when I said how I felt she was like "Are you sure?" :annoyed:

I think this moon is one of the reasons I'm unpopular with women too. :unsure:

I have the opposite experience... But my Aquarian moon is conjunct Venus, and in the 5th house, and my sun is in Pieces.

I'm not detached emotionaly at all. But I can have a somewhat weird take on love and affection. Especially in regards of traditional marriage and love relationships. (I can't stand the thought of having a traditional love relationship and be married to the same person all my life, I must be "free to fly").

And I can feel the same love for people I've just met as I do for a friend I have known for a long time. I have a tremandous love and affection for everyting, I love the soul and spirit of every beeing...? Right down to the grass, and the bugs in the air...

Edit:

And I express love and affection very easily. I live in my emotions all the time, and I feel lonely and out of place if I can't express them, and my affection for those around me.

I'm Libra, Aqua moon and it trines my venus.

I think/feel very warmly but have been told that I'm not. However, I have limits and tend to feel suffocated easily.

Without seeing the chart and 'other aspects' to the moon it's hard to comment really. What I think moon in aquarius does suggests more communication and talking about feelings and friendship --- Aquarians always look for friendship first and foremost and logic and mental stimulas. If moon is in hard aspect to saturn for example it could be rather reserved, cautious and inhibited. But like other members here have said if conj venus or jupiter would be lots more expressive.

I have Aquarius Asc and don't show to much 'touchy feely' I like my space and would rather shake hands than kiss someone on the cheek. Independence is very high on the list for Aquraius, Aries and Saggi.

So if you want to post your chart for further evaluation??

What you say, Baha, I can understand, even if I don't have an Air Moon, but Air is not famous for showing emotions. So even if you feel them, the people around you might see you are cold.

Hey Haizea :happy: I have an earthy, hypercritical type B virgo sun so yeah I'm not particularly good on the emotion area.

Air signs tend to be rather mental yes, but Aquarius moon is just peregrine! Plain alien. I have Moon square Pluto, dear heavens! When people say I'm stoic or cold, I feel like punching them :pinched: just what is wrong with this moon? LOL

LOL I don't know what's wrong with that Moon. :lol: I thought Aquarius Moons also loved! :love: Well, Virgos can be included in the team of the cold ones, Aruilly, welcome to the club :innocent: But one thing is not to be emotive, expressive with emotions, and another to say that you don't feel! That was surprising...and I still don't believe it.

I am even sure that you have your own particular sweet way to show feelings and love. :kissing:

Hmm, as for people dying...well, we are bombarded on TV with death! We know many people nowadays, because we go here, there, relate with lots of people...we can't be the whole day mourning! Was this cold? :alien: My Moon is not Aquarian. :biggrin:
Click to expand...

LOL, I do have feelings of course, but what i was saying is that when ppl die I feel nothing, and in case I mean not feeling sad for close relatives (sorry millions of ppl dying out there, i don't know ya, so my neptune 1st house can't trie to save ya), its just like being numb. Also, I find its easier to express anger, but not sadness or more soft feelings and even anger is expressed in a more controlled way, but this has to do with Pluto really.

Showing love, only by actually saying it which is a rarity. There are only like two ppl I have ever said the three words to and it is far and in between LOL. I remember my sis making fun of me once saying that when i say i love you i whisper it and the person has to continually ask me to repeat till I switch to yeah, i kinda like you. Nowadays, I say something like: I like you, but don't take it personally. :tongue: other person: wtf is that supposed to mean? :andy:

Well, for ppl dying if you say you will morn them for around a minute or so then it's not cold at all.

Oh yeah, this placement can make the mother very excentric in her nurturing or maybe she can be perceived as too emotionally unpredictable. So I guess I better think very well before having a kid.

It was surprising to see that you are a double Sag, Courtney Love, because Sags are warm...of course not the expressive type, the ones who live in contact with their emotions, like Pisces LittleMiss, but Sags behave in a warm way (from my point of view).

Your Moon has many aspects (look in the grid): inconjunct Jupiter and Saturn (it is the apex of a yod there); sesisquare (or something :sideways: ) Neptune; square Chiron; sesisquare Ascendant; trine MidHeaven.

Being the apex of a yod, it might be difficult for you to know it or contact it. Moons are always difficult from what I've heard, and my own experience...it's easier for most of us to be in contact with our Sun energy (if someone knows very well their Moon, come and tell us :smile: ).

I know an Aquarian Moon who is very good at expressing feelings, but has a Cancer Ascendant.

Your Moon is very compatible with your Sun and Ascendant, Courtney. :smile:

For the most part my moon is unaspected, most of the times yods aren't counted.. I am not discounting their value, but my moon doesn't have any of the major aspects to other planets so... there are issues there. The yod is important, especially the Moon/Jupiter quincunx bit... it was "blamed" for my ill health and lifelong weight problem... good times.

I don't feel very loving, but people love me in return, ya know? I'm not the hug you hello/goodbye person... but I am sorta warm.. I have a shirt that says "do I look like a people person?" and strangers always tell me that I do, haha. but That being said, I know this sounds awful but when a friend (who annoys me) says something like the news reported a busload of kids wrecked or someone's grandmother died that first word out of my mouth is "So?" i feel like there's a sensitivity chip missing, I mean, *I* like me, but I know there's an aloofness bordering on coldness that holds me back...

I can't physically hurt someone, or an animal, or anything like that, but the general consensus is that I hurt enough people with my bluntness( saggie) and general lack of concern for their feelings (Aqu. Moon). And I still kinda go.. "so?"

Three most important things in a natal chart, sun,moon and Asc and you have all three in very independent signs ie: aries, saggi, aquarius. Plus your sun is conj neptune - no clear self image. Moon is in a Yod --

You have 4 planets in fire plus fire Asc Saggi when we look for empathy we look at water planets or planets in water houses. Now you do have 2in water and 3 planets in water houses IF your time of birth is correct. 2 in 12th and mars in 8th house naturally ruled by scorpio. So all this empathise on fire -- action -- sun in 1st house 'me first' and foremost. In actual fact you have more planets in water than I do -- I only have neptune in scorpio in 10th but I have 4planets in water houses to compensate.

Moon Quincunx (Inconjunct) Jupiter

To really understand others and life itself, you need to allow others to know you. You always "land on your feet" but often so far away from where you expected or where you said you will be, that you confuse others. Practice being more reliable; then, you will understand yourself, others and life all at once. Your optimism needs focus and to be harnessed to specific projects.
http://cafeastrology.com/natal/quincunxinterpretations.html
Moon Quincunx (Inconjunct) Saturn

Your assumptions about life and yourself are colored by your early childhood experience of inconsistency and uncertainty about your parents' roles. They seem to have been reversed. This has left you uncertain as to what to do or what you are capable of in life. As you become more certain as to your true responsibilities in life, your vision clears as to what you can accomplish. This is also the key to becoming more productive. Through accomplishment you can become more knowledgeable as to how your habits and procedures affect the life circumstances in which you find yourself.

Also having mercury in 1st house opp jupiter can either overtalk or undertalk when it should be talking. The square to pluto suggests you don't like superficial conversations. What happened approx 11years old? am looking at solar arcs to confirm your time. SA MC conj Pluto, did anyone die, disappear? Age 3 SA Asc conj sun was there a sibling born? or relocation perhaps.

I'm a sadge sun/ascendent.... oh yeah, I forgot that my moon was unaspected/least aspected.... Silly me

Yods/quincunxs are considered a major aspect and are valid and you moon in not unaspected. Problem with Aquarius it wants communication, mental stimulation and above all friendship and sometimes this friendship can be more important than saying those three words (I love you)

I don't know what you guys think, - but I got to thinking, It's a difference between beeing kind of insensitive to certain things and plain unemotional!? And I think for someone, the aquarian moon people can come of as a bit insensitive...

And one more thing - I have a huge issue with fear of not beeing included. (My moon in Aquarius squares mars and saturn in Skorpio too). This beeing in any kind of group, community, familiy - everywhere people come together and are a part of something. I have a almost anxiety-like fear of beeing left alone, beeing "outside". Specially among my friends, co-workers etc. I have always thought of this as a negative thing from the Aquarian moon... And it is something I'm very conscious of working with.

Mom has this placement & with her Virgo Venus, Leo Sun & Arian Mars, she can be a bit much. I'm a Scorpio & kind of a thorn in her side. But as an Aquarius Rising, I love how she's different, how she has tried to help people, smart really smart. She hates I study Astrology. She loves when I call & just listen. The thing about her is she feels she has failed me. But I love her. The thing is she does feel a lot. She just has to be 'right' all the time. Not a bad placement for a woman. She's the most unique & amazing woman I know. And she usually is right all the time. I just hate to hear it.

Wow, you're such a good researcher, I really do need to checkout this site... In terms of Solar Arcs.. no.. the only thing that happened around that time was when I was 13, a few days after turning 13 my grandmother died, and we lived in her house, off of her, and it might as well have been a parent it was so huge, so...

No siblings other than my older brother, I don't know what happened around that time... or even 2 years later if the timing is off. Obviously, i went to school when I was almost 5, almost 6...

when I refer to my moon as being least aspected, that was based on the formula to determine your least aspected planet, I know the quincuxes are powerful... Years ago when I was asking about my substanyial weight problem since birth (I weighed like 95 pounds when I was 5 years old) it was suggested that the Yod was indicating the health problem, that the Moon being in a fixed sign was having food come in me, and not leaving, hence the weight. Which is true, I'd eat once a day and stay full for hours... and stay enormous... Of course jupiter on the ascendent conjunct the sun didn't help...

i think if you possess aquarius energy (or maybe energy possess you) you need to find your special, unique way of expressing it, otherwise the energy will reject exhibiting itself altogether.

maybe you are more of a pinching person, hah. i had an aunt like this, all flighty, using extreme body language and spontaneous. doing whatever she feels, a high voltage energy around her. not super positive though, just extremely lively, transforming energy into physical movement.

discharge all the electricity inside you into these little lightning bolts. cause i know a woman like this would make me all jumpy jumpy.

....

so i was googling rather cold looking celebrities. paris hilton, transforms the energy into plain crazyness (sun aqua). uma thurman, she is more crazy inside (moon aqua) jennifer aniston, even tough she is nothing really special (physical appearance) she somehow managed to ***** brad pitt, heh.

Brad & Jen's suns sextile and her Moon conjuncts his unaspected sun, I don't think he knows who he is anyway... those sextiles had to help. Also, his venus in capricorn probably quite liked her superstar status, teehee.

I agree with 2complicated. You have to find a way to work with your energy. Try not to judge it as good or bad because you have other factors in your astro portrait that will affect the moon's placement in different ways. Capitalize on your objectivity but don't get carried away. They say you may not know what you are feeling at any given time, but maybe heated discussions about ideas, ideals, society and humanity are your link to emoting. Also, speaking of your femininity, aqua moon is supposed to have a striking, cool beauty, which I notice to be true for my best friend who has an aqua moon.

I think a Moon in Aquarius is a HORRIBLE placement for a woman. Especially if she that woman is smart and pretty, and especially if she has some Sag in her. This makes me fall in love with her crazily head over heals. And usually the more I like her, the less she likes me. That's the Aquarius part at work.

Freedomlover once said that wherever there is an Aquarius and a Sag there is a strong drive for freedom. Perhaps this is why I like this combo. I have some Sag and an Aquarius in me too.
