Moon Signs: Your Relationship to Your Body, How You Protect Yourself from Your Fears Pt 1
For me, I believe the moon sign can say a lot about what a person's body has gone through, how they will repeatedly react to these themes, and how they use this sign's expression to avoid what they fear the most, which I believe can be found in the opposite sign.
Feel free to check Moon sign, house, degrees, or 4th house cusp. May or may not relate. thx! (Part 2)
Aries (1st House): your body is a concealment of endless craving. You protect yourself through wanting things. You are specific about what you desire, but may find after receiving what you craved that it is not what you wanted after all. However you prefer this to the confusion of feeling that you don't know what you want and are unsure of how you could ever permanently decide (Libra). Taurus (2nd house): your body is a house that is never done being built. You protect yourself through following a plan. You know how the plan is supposed to end, but may find that each time you think you reach the finish you get a feeling of incompleteness. However you prefer this to the chaos of abandoning your plan and destroying your work to start over altogether. (Scorpio) Gemini (3rd house): your body is a distraction of unanswered questions. You protect yourself by constantly seeking more information. You have an insatiable need to research intensely whatever it is that's on your mind, but may find by the end of your investigation you still don't quite understand what you were trying to, and feel overwhelmed by all of the details. However you prefer this to drawing a conclusion and living with the fear that you may have missed or left something out. (Sagittarius) Cancer (4th house): your body is a pool of warm nostalgia. You protect yourself by wanting to both relive and resolve the past. In your mind, you isolate the parts of your memories that made you feel loved, safe, or content and hold them close. You want to bring back those feelings now, but leave the negative aspects behind you. But you may find that when you revisit past experiences (outside of your fantasy), they bring up the same mixture of pain with joy as before or they simply fall flat. However you prefer this to the patience of looking toward your future to cultivate a more steady feeling of warmth, because you are afraid of waiting for something you can't be sure will come. (Capricorn) Leo (5th house): your body is a thunderstorm you hear while you’re asleep. You protect yourself through expression. You feel the urgency to let your feelings be known to others, but may find that what you expressed in the end was a just a simplification of what you really felt which is much harder to access or define. However you prefer this to feeling misunderstood, and the discomfort that comes with knowing that the parts of you which can't be easily expressed are just as important to who you are as the parts you do share. (Aquarius) Virgo (6th House): your body is a system of intricate adjustments. You protect yourself through stressing. You may fixate over small details of your daily life and routine in hopes that this will lead you to having control over how you feel, but may find that after fixing one problem you just move onto another and never quite feel satisfied or relaxed. However you prefer this to letting go of your control and realizing that you have no idea what is going to happen, and very little power over it either. (Pisces)
Moon Signs: Your Relationship to Your Body, How You Protect Yourself from Your Fears Pt 2
For me, I believe the moon sign can say a lot about what a person's body has gone through, how they will repeatedly react to these themes, and how they use this sign's expression to avoid what they fear the most, which I believe can be found in the opposite sign.
Feel free to check Moon sign, house, degrees, or 4th house cusp. May or may not relate. thx! (Part 1)
Libra (7th house): your body is a cave lined with mirrors. You protect yourself through mental adaptation. You have the ability to identify with many different ways of feeling and thinking depending on where you are, who you're with, or what you determine to be right in that moment. But you may find when you are left alone you are unsure of how you feel without a context to put yourself in. However you prefer this to asserting just one feeling or opinion (Aries) and fearing that you misread the situation, or misread yourself
Scorpio (8th house): your body is a tree grown around barbwire. You protect yourself by moving on. It can be second nature for you to move on seamlessly with your head held high from any number of painful situations that would cause most other people a tremendous amount of disturbance. But somehow, long after cutting your ties you begin to notice yourself compulsively bringing up these experiences (either in conversations or through intrusive thoughts), and realize the feelings had never actually left you. However you prefer this to the slower, more conscious pain of methodically tending to your wounds (Taurus) because you are continually caught up with a fear that you are running out of time. Sagittarius (9th house): your body is a silent cry of longing. You protect yourself through emotional indulgence. You may have a habit of allowing your emotions to play out on a grand a dramatic scale while in solitude. But you find that the details end up getting lost or overlooked in your tendency to passion. You may know exactly what you feel but you don't understand why. However you prefer this to the sober feeling you fear will come if you investigate to discover the motivations for your feelings are less romantic or mystical than you had imagined. (Gemini) Capricorn (10th house): your body is a clock that remembers everything. You protect yourself through burden. Though you have been through much pain and challenges in life you are not one to turn away from it or fantasize. Strangely your need for escape is satisfied through self control. But you may find that as you work to perfect yourself and the method you have chosen by which to live your life, you feel dissatisfied. You may unconsciously long for someone to soothe you. However you prefer this to letting your emotions flow freely because you fear their changeability and unpredictable waves. (Cancer) Aquarius (11th house): your body is a childhood friend who moved away when you were eight. You protect yourself through estrangement. The emotional impact of an experience may feel alien or non existent to you in the moment, and gradually deeper felt as your distance from it grows. You may find that by the time your feelings are accessible to you the event has long passed. However you prefer this to putting your emotions out loudly in the open without editing or tweaking their rawness (Leo) out of a fear that they will be ignored. Pisces (12th house): your body is the pause between one dream and the next. You protect yourself through numbness. You may feel that you are in a constant state of limbo in which numerous emotions surround you. They deeply affect your world, but are somehow out of reach. The intense variety of the emotions you feel all at once may overwhelm you to the point that you are left with a strange indifference. However you prefer this to passing judgement on your emotions to discern which you should give importance to (Virgo) because you fear this will cause you to lose access to something that feels magical.
Moon Through The Houses & an area in your life which cycles/fluctuates
When I think about the Moon and the phases it makes me think about hiding vs revealing. I feel that its placement in the birth chart can show an area with drastic fluctuations of how someone express the themes of that house.
Moon in the 1st (Aries): Your independence and assertive nature fluctuates frequently based on your changing emotions. You may have phases where you are totally sure of who you as being independent from anyone else. You do your own thing/have your own routine etc. You maybe aren't (1 example) so much interested in dating and are content on your own. Then you may also have phases where you feel quite attached to another; be it a partner, a group of people, or a friend. In theses phases it is easy for you to get caught up in the other person/people's routines or the routine you established together. You may have phases where you are an "open book" about your feelings and are quite candid and then phases where you keep your feelings more isolated from those around you. Those who are close to you may be able to tell where you're at emotionally based on changes/patterns in the way you assert your identity/independence.
Moon in the 2nd (Taurus): Your self worth and financial comfort fluctuate frequently based on your changing emotions. You may have phases where you feel on top of the world about yourself, feeling like things are going your way and you deserve the best of the best. Phases where you become more interested in your appearance, having the urge to buy new clothes etc. and wanting to feel good about the way you look. You can have ups and downs in your finances and the way you treat your money. When you don't have a lot you know just how to get by without spending much and can deal with the discomfort and stress that comes with this without letting it show to others. When you do have money you have no problem spending it on the things you see as valuable and important to you and can be very generous with others. Those who are close to you may be able to tell where you're at emotionally based on changes/patterns in the way you take care of yourself and your spending habits.
Moon in the 3rd (Gemini): Your communication, curiosity, and social nature fluctuates frequently based on your changing emotions. You may go through many phases where you pick up hobbies or interests that you find fascinating, then lose all interest just as fast as you gained it and move on to something else. You may have several interests that you cyclically bounce back and forth between based on what emotionally fulfills you in that moment. You could have phases where you socialize frequently, are eager to express your ideas, and have quite the appetite for conversation followed by phases where you retreat and don't care to share much of anything in a conversation. Those who you're close to may be able to tell where you're at emotionally based on the changes/patterns in your communication and social presence.
Moon in the 4th (Cancer): Your home environment and general emotional stability fluctuates frequently based on your changing moods. You may feel the urge to rearrange your living space or redecorate often as a release or comfort for your emotions. It's possible you may have mastered coming off as very emotionally stable in public, but experience many mood swings when at home. (these can be based on yourself alone or can also come from taking on the feelings of those you live with.) You can go through phases where you feel the best at home, feeling content and safe there, but you can also experience impulses to pack up and move somewhere else, change your environment completely. Those who you're close to may be able to tell where you're at emotionally based on changes in how much time you spend at home, how you treat your living space, and the intensity/sensitivity of your reactions to your environment in general.
Moon in the 5th (Leo): Your self confidence, expressiveness, and fun-seeking nature fluctuates frequently based on your changing emotions. You may have the desire to be the "star of your own show" and the courage to do it, but at times suffer from extreme shyness in regards to taking up space particularly with your creativity or art. You may be deeply moved by live music or performances and go through phases where you watch and study them intensely particularly because you are fascinated by a performer's ability/courage to release their range of emotions in real time all while being watched by many people. You can go through phases where you often go out with friends and are constantly seeking a good time especially out in public, followed by phases where even the idea of going out gives you anxiety and you feel the urge to hide for a bit. Those who you're close to may be able to tell where you're at emotionally based on changes in your level of positivity, your extroverted expression, and what you are doing or not doing to have fun.
Moon in the 6th (Virgo): Your basic routine, analytical nature, and practicality fluctuate frequently based on your changing moods. You may go through phases where your diet, exercise, sleep etc. is all on a regular, stable routine, but also go through phases where your day to day life can be totally disorganized. There are times when you observe everything around you (people, experiences, etc.) and ask yourself how do you feel about it? do you agree with it? does it work? You use these observations to make your decisions. However there are other times where you completely overlook the details you might otherwise notice and feel that your reality and opinions about it are entirely created by your own feelings rather than your discerning mind. Those who you're close to may be able to tell where you're at emotionally based on changes in your level of attention to your health and wellness, the regularity of your routine, and your willingness or unwillingness to overlook details.
Moon in the 7th (Libra): Your one on one connections, desire for companionship, and tendency to compromise fluctuates frequently based on your changing emotions. You may experience a lot of mood swings related to your perception of the people you maintain relationships with. You may go through phases where you are prone to idealize people close to you and give a lot of your time and energy to them while you also go through phases where you may feel people take you for granted and can lose faith in your ideas about companionship and reciprocity. There may be times when you are very giving towards others (sometimes at your own expense), and also times when you expect a lot of support from others as well. Those who you're close to may be able to tell where you're at emotionally based on changes in the way you talk about your relationships and how interested or not interested you are in connecting with others.
Moon in the 8th (Scorpio): Your trust in other people, your capacity for intimacy, and general feelings of safety fluctuate frequently based on your changing emotions. You may have the desire for "ride or die" relationships and struggle when you realize that for better or worse relationships rarely stay consistently the same, and if they did there wouldn't be much point to them. You may feel immensely gratified in revealing a lot about your deeper self to someone in an intimate conversation only to regret it later and stress about the "power" you fear this person now has over you. You may go through phases where you long for deep intimacy with someone and also phases where you feel you can only rely on yourself. You have a deep need to express your true feelings to others but often feel the urge to reinvent yourself and your emotions in hopes that it would render any past information you gave out to someone useless in case they were to "use it against you." Those who you're close to may be able to tell where you're at emotionally based on changes in how on edge you seem to be, how trusting or not trusting you are of seemingly mundane situations.
Moon in the 9th (Sagittarius): Your optimism, desire to share your skills, and spiritual beliefs fluctuates frequently based on your changing emotions. You may experience a lot of high highs and low lows in your moods. You can be extremely optimistic and open minded that anything is possible but experience disappointment when you find things are not working out like you imagined. You love to share the things you are passionate about with others but can find that sometimes you also wish to hold back a bit because others can take this for granted and expect you to share your knowledge and services for free. You may go through a lot of phases where you question your spiritual beliefs and have times where you feel extremely spiritually connected and other times where you feel more uncertainty. You question a lot of the deeper things in life, but for you it is not enough just to question. You do want real answers, which can sometimes lead you to jump to conclusions and change opinions frequently. Those you're close to may be able to tell where you're at emotionally based on changes in the way you talk about your spiritual beliefs, how optimistic you are, and how excited you are by what you're learning.
Moon in the 10th (Capricorn): Your perception of your public image, your confidence in your abilities, and the way you draw boundaries fluctuates frequently based on your changing emotions. You are an extremely hard worker at whatever it is you decide to do and your ability to fully appreciate this truth about yourself is sometimes very present. At other times, you may struggle with a fear that you don't work hard "enough." This may reflect too in the feedback you get from others, as often you find that people rave about how responsible, reliable, and dedicated you are at whatever it is you're doing. and other times certain people may say the exact opposite, criticizing you/your work or even use you as a scapegoat. This inconsistency can cause confusion and insecurity in you especially because, for you in particular, the feedback you get from others is very important for your emotional stability. Sometimes it is difficult for you to draw boundaries between what people say about you and who you actually are, but other times you may feel extremely secure in your identity and realize easily when other's comments are really about you and when they're not. Those who you're close to may be able to tell where you're at emotionally based on changes in the way you talk about whatever work or hobby you're doing, how concerned you are with other's passing comments, and how much or how little you seek external validation for your efforts.
Moon in the 11th (Aquarius): Your interest in "fitting in," your engagement in group conversations, and what you look for in a friend fluctuates frequently based on your changing moods. You may go through phases where you try very hard to conform to what you imagine others expect of you. This can range from your appearance to your mannerisms, values, goals, beliefs etc. Then other times you may be less concerned with approval from those around you and let yourself do or express things you see as less "conventional." This can be in very small, subtle ways or in larger ways depending. You may at times experience confusion about who it is you really are and what you actually care about because of the changeability of your expression. Some certain people may see you as deeply fascinating while others completely overlook you. You may notice this and feel unsure about which you response you actually prefer. Those who you're close to may be able to tell where you're at emotionally based on changes in your interest in small talk and social events, the amount you express and talk about yourself vs. just listening.
Moon in the 12th (Pisces): Your alone time and awareness of your deeper needs fluctuates frequently based on your changing emotions. You likely go through phases where it seems everyone wants your time and energy and then phases where you don't hear much from anyone. Often when you are alone you crave companionship, but can on the other hand find it overwhelming when people frequently expect your company. You may feel extremely emotional at some times and at others feel like you are just going through the motions in your life. You might end up in a lot of situations where you find it almost impossible to explain how you feel and keep what you are going through a secret to those around you. There could be times when you feel very triggered but don't know what has made it start, and other times where you feel a bit desensitized to your surroundings. Those who you're close to may be able to tell where you're at emotionally based on changes in how often you reach out or respond to your friends and how "present" you seem to be in general.
How to Tell if the Signs Crush on You
(Part 2 Scorpio-Pisces)
Here are my interpretations, meant to be applied to any personal planets or ASC! houses works too…it's all up to you. This post isn't really concerned with commitment or relationships, more about initial attraction, flirting, & sexual/romantic tension. (I write more in depth about signs I have more experience with.) THX!
Aries: This tension is obvious and physical. They may be playful in a physical manner. Very engaged & present, lots of eye contact and open body language. (If you look up "body language/signals of attraction" this one is easy to figure out, given they don't have other placements negating it) with Scorpio (the other mars sign) the tension is obvious as well, but in their case it is more psychic, mental (psychological)..from a distance but felt as heavy. With Aries the tension is more immediate, feels closer, and not something they feel the need to hide or overly control. It can feel irritating like an itch you can't scratch, or like a pleasant rush; uninhibited. They may like to flirt somewhere there’s a lot of space. outside or at the park. they can display excess energy that is obvious or on the other hand can be extremely focused.
Taurus: This tension can be felt through touch. The way they touch you will be incredibly gentle with a heavy undertone of possessiveness. This isn't a flirty touch, but one done out of security in the physical sense. They won't reach out and grab your arm or playfully or give you a little push when you say something funny. They're more likely to gently place their hand on your back or take your wrist when you're about to cross the street too soon or trip over something (something like that.) if you pass them an object they may put their hand over yours when reaching for it rather than just taking the object itself. They may try to give you an item of their clothing to wear. They love watching their lovers get dressed. they may like to flirt somewhere private and comfortable but not overly sexy - like the sofa but not the bedroom. and it’s likely going to be at their place, not yours.
Gemini: This tension feels like inner chaos. They are very likely to play mind games. And in most cases this isn't in a malicious way, they just crave the mental excitement. With both Mercury ruled signs it's easy to tell if they like you because they will make a point to let you know they've been watching you. how they do this, they will subtly (or sometimes not subtly) bring up a tiny little detail about you or your mannerisms. With Virgo it's in more of a quiet, thoughtful, or concerned type of way. With Gemini it's in a very playful way that may leave you feeling both flattered and slightly made fun of lol. Their style of flirting may not translate to everyone. But If you let them know somehow that they've gotten in your head, you feel perplexed by them, and can't figure it all out..it's may be just what they love to hear! they may like to flirt on the phone. it means a lot to them how much their crush pays attention to their social media and they take this digital attention or lack thereof seriously.
Cancer: This tension feels like trying to hold it together on the verge of crying, and someone casually asks you "are you ok?" You will know if a Cancer is into by how closely they pay attention to your reactions and the ways in which they will attempt to draw reactions out of you. I read somewhere (I can't remember where) that Cancer's often have the reputation of being emotionally all over the place, when really they are extremely controlled, and their emotional displays are more strategic than people realize. I think it's so true! Cancers will pay close attention to you and the way that you speak. They wait for that small moment in a conversation in which you may slip, just slightly, into a softer or more emotional tone, and they will reflect that softness back x10 with their own tone or rhythm of speech. it's important to note that while they do this they give off the impression of vulnerability while revealing nothing. but if they like you they will do this, and it's both because they want you to open up, and because your vulnerability makes them feel more secure in the sense that they feel needed. they may like to flirt in the kitchen. while your prepping a meal together or washing the dishes. if they’re not that into you good luck getting invited inside their house. and you can tell they like you when they feel at ease and relaxed inside of your house.
Leo: This tension feels like the way you act at a party vs. in your room alone. It's easy to tell if a Leo likes you based on the way they treat you around others vs. one on one. In others' company it will be extremely obvious that they're attracted to you just based on the feeling and vibe they give off. Other people may likely pick up on it, which Leos secretly love. They might flirt with you openly or just give off a strong feeling. Check their pupils if you can see them, they are likely dilated. When you're alone together it will be a whole different thing. They will be extremely shy, likely not very flirtatious at all, and may treat you as more of a friend. The thing that will give them away is their eyes because if they like you enough to share a gaze, you will notice that their eyes give off a gentle tranquility. If you have a cat it's kind of like the difference when they're hyped up and their pupils are huge vs. when they're relaxing and their pupils shrink to a small sliver. they might like to flirt in front of everyone who is there and don’t really care who notices. if you invite them out somewhere they will make sure to get dressed in something that will look good next to your own style. they want to look like a power couple even if you’re just friends or not actually dating.
Virgo: This tension feels like test anxiety. When a Virgo likes someone they will typically act more meticulous and stressed out behind the scenes while at the same time trying hard to make their neatness and put together manner appear effortless. If they invite you to their home maybe it looks so clean and organized it's almost like no one lives there. Virgos can easily get carried away with their desire to be "perfect" to the point where they've ended up making everything look sterile. they are nervous and they may like to flirt very briefly in between their tasks. this is more comforting to their anxiety. they do well with work or school crushes because in these situations they can focus their energy on something else but run into their crush here and there throughout the day and get that excitement without all the pressure.
Libra: This tension feels like waiting for your high school sweetheart to pick you up on prom night. If a Libra likes you, you will probably just wake up one day and realize you're already dating them. In other words, they will give you their time & a lot of it. They will just be there. If you call, they will pick up. If you invite them over, they will stay until you tell them to leave. Out of all the signs I feel that this one the most is looking for a partner in a very literal sense. More than sexual chemistry or over the top romance, i will more often hear Libras say they are just looking for a buddy to do things with. Similar to Taurus but less private with the settings they like to flirt in. This sign may like to flirt during actual dates like meeting up for drinks or getting a coffee. they need to feel an atmosphere, again like Taurus but they are more open to wanting it to be in public.
How to Tell if the Signs Crush on You (Scorpio-Pisces)
(Part 1 Aries-Libra)
Here are my interpretations, meant to be applied to personal planets or ASC! (esp Venus) houses works too…it's all up to you. This post isn't really concerned with commitment or relationships, more about initial attraction, flirting, & sexual/romantic tension. (I write more in depth about signs I have more experience with.) THX!
Scorpio: This tension feels like love/hate. People often say that Scorpios are really good at hiding when they have a crush and I personally disagree. At one point or another they will usually give this look and it kind of looks like desire and the pain of betrayal mixed together, and it might be very quick or they may also do it deliberately, waiting for you to notice. they will kind of look at you like you hurt them even if you didn't do anything, but it’s not in a vulnerable way, more like a “I know what you did” way. Another thing they will do if they like you is interrogate you with questions. they don't just do this out of nowhere. they ease into it, wait for the perfect moment when your walls are finally starting to come down and they can tell you feel relaxed with them. then they will ask you question after question, & the pacing will somehow feel slow and controlled, but quick and exhilarated at the same time. It may be obvious what they're trying to figure out, or it can easily seem like the most random questions. but imo Scorpios rarely ask random questions out of passive curiosity. if you can't figure out what they're trying to find out about you, just know either way they are collecting information about you & filing it away in their mind. they like to flirt very subtly. if you’re looking really hard you may be able to spot it, and you may have to look so hard you end up wondering if you’re making this up in your mind. they have a talent for doing things that are slightly out of place and making it look seamless, natural, and normal. they have a way of getting vaguely intimate with you (in the emotional sense -not physical) and you may not realize that its even happening. their actions can come out of nowhere and seem so confident and bold, but really they’re not. actually, they just realized you were into them before you did. and the subtle intimacy you leaned into yet barely noticed was the way that they find out. and if they ghost you for no reason, it’s often the same thing only opposite, they realized you were not into them before you did.
Sagittarius: This tension feels like the basic definition of "sexual tension." In my opinion it's not very hard to tell if a Sagittarius is into you. At one point or another they will (usually out of nowhere) bring up or hint at something related to sex and it probably won't come across as very subtle or smooth (sorry sag!). how to tell if they're committed, i have no idea lol but luckily that's not what this post is about :P they may like to flirt in a random situation where you’re both completely outside of your routine, & everything is a little confusing but you’re both having a good time.
Capricorn: This tension feels like a critique. Capricorns are interesting to me. they are known to be serious and achieving, but behind all that I see a side of them that is like a kid who wants you to admire the picture they drew. If they like you this side will start to come out, though it won't be overly obvious. If a Capricorn likes you they will want your approval and a lot of it. they may directly share what they're working on with you or not, but either way they will make sure their work is easily accessible to you, and they will keep track of how closely you're paying attention. If you ask them how they feel about you they'll sometimes tell you that you're good at what you do, or they'll imply that they admire your reputation or image instead of saying how they feel. to me this always comes off a little strange and cold, but i think to them it genuinely means a lot to say it. do Capricorn’s flirt? maybe i don’t have enough experience lmao. they become very formal and careful in their speech, they may text you like they’re emailing their boss. even when their casual you can easily sense their caution. but this caution is not hesitant, it’s shows up as being deliberate, measured, almost grave.
Aquarius: this tension feels like dreaming about the one who left the party early. With Aquarius I think it's hard to tell and they may be the most frustrating to deal with. what i really feel about Aquarius is that they love attention even more than Leos and play more mind games than Gemini. With this sign i see it possible that one way or another they felt left out as children, and they figure out how to attract a lot of attention as adults.. but handle it somewhat immaturely. If they like you they will make more of a genuine effort and drop their "play it cool" act. If they're into you and you invite them somewhere they won't say "maybe" or give a vague answer, they will commit right away and will show up. If they flirt with you but never go out of their way to make plans, I would move on. This sign is also extremely jealous in my experience, but typically may deceive themselves into thinking they are above it. When they become jealous they will usually remove themselves from the situation abruptly, or become casual, informal, and distant. they may like to flirt right under everyone’s noses. these placements remind me of flirting when you’re in the closet. they know what’s going on and you know what’s going on, it feels intense and overwhelming yet everyone around you seems to have no idea.
Pisces: This tension feels like cheesy films when they say "what I was looking for was right here the whole time" lol. imo I think Pisces should have the reputation for hiding their crushes well, not Scorpio. In my experience it is very hard to tell. There is one thing they may do that gives it away. Usually when a Pisces likes you one day suddenly they may just stand extremely close to you. they may smile very close to your face or just stand very near, maybe touching maybe not. If you notice that they are doing this and it seems they feel very comfortable being this close to you or you even get a warm feeling, or feeling of chemistry it's likely they may be into you. this one is hard to describe. they may like to flirt non verbally and may like a distraction like their opposite sign virgo but more escape-like than the example mentioned there. example is like..watching a movie with someone and your arms keep getting closer so that they’re not quite touching but still close enough to sense.
Why are Scorpios Magnetic?
The reason why people see Scorpios as attractive or alluring (IMO) it's not because Scorpios are more mysterious or hide anything more than anybody else. They are attractive because they know what they are hiding about themself. They have an intimate close up relationship with what they hide & they spend a lot of time cultivating this relationship behind closed doors. I think it's easier to see someone as secretive when they know they are keeping a secret & when they think about that secret all the time. Scorpios usually know themselves well. All the hype about how magnetic they are, for me it comes down to just that.
I may do other posts like this for other signs we'll see.. thx!!
Fixed Signs: Lifestyle & Challenges
This post applies to anyone with strong Fixed placements (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius) or who identifies strongly with fixed modality. Particularly Fixed ASC, or on the angles.
It may be helpful when reading this to apply the traits mentioned to the themes of your planet or house involved. (Ex: Sun-ego/identity)
CW: mentions addiction/substance use
Fixed signs are commonly known as stubborn, habitual, and persistent.
what comes to mind for me when i think of fixed is an attachment to extremes, “all or nothing” - this way or that way but never both.
Fixed signs find it difficult to feel comfortable or safe in uncertainty. often if they find they cannot be certain about something they have ways to simulate certainty (and commit to the choice they make) to maintain their sense of stability. —polarized thinking may be common for them, and the value in that style is that it always promises certainty.
Fixed signs themselves may be somewhat “extreme,” risk taking, or unafraid. and this can play out internally or externally in their life, on smaller scales or larger depending.
Whether they try for this or not they often have a demanding presence coupled with an unwavering stare that communicates something like “go ahead and try me, see what happens”
Fixed signs can typically be inflexible, but imo it’s often by choice rather than an inability to be otherwise. The reason I believe this is that once a fixed sign person wants something (and they truly want it) they become extremely flexible/creative and will take whichever route they need to take so long as they will get to what they desire. (Their flexibility in changing what they want however is not likely!)
i often see possible addiction issues mentioned with pisces and neptune, but i see it as a strong possibility for fixed placements as well. I often see fixed placements as the type to easily “hold their own” even when heavily intoxicated or influenced, and once they start something it is hard for them to stop. No matter what the endeavor, interest, or habit, they will see it through to the end.
This attitude can play out strongly in their persona as well. They may have a somewhat hard time adapting or changing quickly depending on “what the moment calls for.” Their feelings and reactions have a tendency to stick on them even when the event they are reacting to has passed.
For Fixed Signs their past is something that scares them and comforts them at the same time. It comforts them to remember the past no matter how painful it may be because it makes them feel like they know what is going to happen next.
It’s cliche, but I would say learning to cope with uncertainty could be #1 goal for Fixed signs.
Leo Suns & Performance: Why their Show Never Stops
Some notes I have about the conflicts that can come up for Leos related to their tendency to perform. Enjoy if you relate. thx!
In my experience with other Leos (and being a Leo myself) it's clear as their stereotype suggests that they have the ability to "light up" a room easily with their charisma and smile.
But what I see as I get older, and more recently is that for many Leo Suns the stability of their identity & self worth is heavily dependent on how well & consistently they are able to "wow the crowd"
Leos come to decide from a young age that no matter who they are dealing with throughout life, people like to be entertained.
They may put pressure on themselves to provide entertainment for others (no matter the type of relationship), expecting that a successful performance will promise acceptance and security.
By their caretakers, Leos may have received much praise and admiration for sharing their positive and joyful emotions. They may have been ignored when disclosing emotions that did not uplift or benefit anyone else, or been discouraged to believe these feelings were relevant or "real."
As a result Leos as adults will typically go above and beyond to impress. They will put on a show no matter how small the audience, and will continuously work to make it even more glamorous and outstanding than the last.
If someone sees through this Leos can easily feel it. In response they are likely to actually push even harder into their act, sometimes to the point where they are flaunting so unabashedly it is no longer attractive and they may purposely be seeking to make someone jealous.
imo I don't believe "fake" is the exact word for their performative nature. I actually believe all of Leo's enthusiasm and glamour to be real and authentic, but it's only half of their story, & when expressed alone it almost completely loses value.
Leos are great at impersonal or distanced relationships based on image. However Leos' closer companions may be left confused when after years into a friendship or romance they are still being treated like an audience member.
Many Leo Suns may go throughout life with a background feeling that something is not right. they know something is wrong, but they don't know what it is & they believe that if they just keep pushing & throw themselves into having fun, they will never need to face it.
My Advice to Leo Suns:
Positivity is a beautiful thing, but it isn't the answer to everything.
It makes sense that the Sun would be uncomfortable with darkness; for me I usually look to oppositions for solutions, but for this one I think the balance can be found with Cancer.
If you have Cancer placements along with your Leo Sun I would recommend focusing on them more if you haven't already!
in addition, studying and paying more attention to your Moon placement can be very helpful.
If you feel someone seeing through your act, slow down don't speed up. the more you try to impress, the further they will be repelled.
Pay attention to your relationships with Scorpio and Taurus, the tension of this square can help you with your growth.

CW: mentions of s*x
some ideas of mine. a lot of these are specific (from personal experiences) may not relate to you, but enjoy if they do. thx!
Virgo placements are I believe some of the most socially observant. (especially if Scorpio is somehow involved & especially how they pay attention to a love interest.) The way I think of it is, their Mercury influence gives them the ability to pick up on patterns in communication/verbal information, while the earth influence allows for an awareness of physical information and body mannerisms. Virgos will notice the way you blink too frequently when you're nervous, which leg you tend to hold your body weight on, and the phrases you revert to when you're not sure what else to say.
Scorpio placements might go about gauging someone's attraction by saying something very vaguely sensual (sometimes, but often not directly suggestive or s*xual.) The type of comment that could easily fly under the radar, so to speak. The Scorpio person will watch their love interest's reaction closely, and be able to tell how they received it by their response. it may be quite hard to catch by the other person, but looking back you may ask yourself why someone would choose to say that phrase in such a way. However it's important to note they are often extremely careful with their words and will certainly not do this with just anyone. In my experience this only happens when they can already sense that this other person is safe and will treat them with respect. They may have the history of saying somethings that are wrongly taken by another as s*xual, which led them to feel uncomfortable or unsafe. As a result, Scorpios may become quite hyper aware of their choice of words and will never say something that could even possibly be twisted as suggestive to someone they sense might have too strong of a reaction or treat them with disrespect. In some ways, I feel that having Scorpio energy in a chart is like living with the volume quite amplified. They are often drawn to those who have quiet or internal reactions. (not just because of the stereotype that they like "mystery.") ..it is sometimes quite intrinsically easy for them to read others and pick up on subtly, because of this a strong or more external reaction can feel uncomfortable, dangerous, overstimulating, or just tmi.
The way I feel; Inconjunct/quincunx signs are important. If you think of each planetary placement as a rising sign the signs inconjunct to it would represent the 6th and 8th house - our daily habits, persona, and routine & a core part of our identity that is accessed through deep intimacy and transformation. Just how it's helpful to look to your opposite sign for balance, I see inconjunction as helpful to understand who you are.
I sometimes get the feeling that Mercury ruled signs (gemini&virgo) are deeply mysterious, although they may come off as quite the opposite. These signs are extremely communicative, but strangely all the while they may reveal very little about themselves. In my experience with Virgo, they are very inquisitive, caring, and are eager to offer up advice. however, down the road I may realize I don't quite have a full picture of all that goes on in their life or how they truly feel. With Gemini, they can turn any topic no matter how seemingly small or detailed into an interesting conversation, and love to talk about the quirks of their everyday life. However, I get a strange feeling something is missing from my understanding of them.
If you are looking to invite an Air Moon to open up to you emotionally: in my experience, don't ask them to meet you..call them on the phone! (**not video or facetime) Vice versa, if you're an Air Moon and feel you are craving a more intimate conversation, but struggle to open up, I'd suggest a phone call.
How To Befriend the Moon Signs
What should you say to each moon sign to start a friendship?
Aries Moon: "want to race me?"
Taurus Moon: "I brought my lunch, do you want to share it?"
Gemini Moon: "tell me everything."
Cancer Moon: "how are you feeling today? have you eaten yet?"
Leo Moon: "let's get dressed up and go out"
Virgo Moon: "do you want to have tea tomorrow morning at ten?"
Libra Moon: "let's have a photo shoot"
Scorpio Moon: "do you mind if I sit by you today?"
Sagittarius Moon: "what is your strangest idea?"
Capricorn Moon: "I'll be there, let's make a plan"
Aquarius Moon: "there's something special about you"
Pisces Moon: "remember any dreams from last night?"
Astro Observations 6 (romance/relationships)
from what I've seen, take it if it applies. thx!
Cancer, Taurus, and Scorpio placements may be in the habit of taking frequent photos of their loved ones. For Cancer, it's about the nostalgia and memory aspect, they don't want to forget. For Taurus, they may use photos as a visual aid to help the love feel tangible to them. For Scorpio, photos may help them feel secure, in the way that images can provide an illusion of permanence.
Leo placements will write the love poem, whether anyone hears it or not. if they're not the type, they probably at least made a playlist.
We often hear that those with strong Capricorn placements are good at preserving their reputation or "keeping it professional." but what I admire most about these placements is their emotional boundaries. In my experience, there seems to be a level of consistency to the way these people treat others. Whatever unpleasant or difficult emotions they may be feeling, they don't seem to often apply those feelings as a filter to affect their interactions.
In my opinion, the most important planets in synastry for longevity in relationships are Mercury, Moon, and Saturn.
for Cancer Venus/Venus in the 4th their attraction may grow the more history they have with someone
Gemini/Virgo placements may be attracted by someone typing, or get attached or sentimental to the quirks of their loved ones' handwriting.
Astro Observations #5
my own opinions, take it if it relates. thx!
Those with prominent Virgo, Capricorn, or Saturn placements at one point or another may have been conditioned to believe that to celebrate their accomplishments would be counter-productive and ultimately hold them back from achieving more. I feel it is not talked about often how much these earth signs actually fear stagnancy or creative plateau. they may belittle what they have done, push it aside, or even forget it - not simply out of insecurity or a humble mindset, but because they may believe that celebration is somehow adjacent to "giving up," or saying "good enough" and quitting. what i also notice that I don't hear said a lot, is that these placements seem to be some of the most creative! imo, once they regularly take the time to celebrate how talented they are, and how far they continue to go, they will be unstoppable & creativity may flow more easily despite what they may think.
People often describe the famous Scorpio stare as "piercing." but in my experience I notice more of a strange duality to it. Their stare, to me, (if they have made the choice to hold eye contact) seems to let in just as much as it pushes out or penetrates. It's piercing, but there is also an exposed quality to their eyes that is revealing, unnerving, and raw.
Virgo placements may be very in tune with their sense of smell.
Artists with the same mercury sign as your own moon may write lyrics that really touch you.
12th house planets can show experiences you most often seem to experience in isolation, or when the feelings related to that planet are triggered you may disappear or withdraw. ex: Sun in the 12th: you receive a lot of attention, then disappear/withdraw, Venus in the 12th: you get into a relationship and disappear/withdraw, Mars in the 12th: you feel s*xual, so you disappear/withdraw, Mercury in 12th: something makes you overthink, you disappear/withdraw, etc.
Sagittarius Moon/Moon in the 9th can be extremely affectionate in a verbal way, & can be very enthusiastic texters.
Moon Signs: Your Relationship to Your Body, How You Protect Yourself from Your Fears Pt 2
For me, I believe the moon sign can say a lot about what a person's body has gone through, how they will repeatedly react to these themes, and how they use this sign's expression to avoid what they fear the most, which I believe can be found in the opposite sign.
Feel free to check Moon sign, house, degrees, or 4th house cusp. May or may not relate. thx! (Part 1)
Libra (7th house): your body is a cave lined with mirrors. You protect yourself through mental adaptation. You have the ability to identify with many different ways of feeling and thinking depending on where you are, who you're with, or what you determine to be right in that moment. But you may find when you are left alone you are unsure of how you feel without a context to put yourself in. However you prefer this to asserting just one feeling or opinion (Aries) and fearing that you misread the situation, or misread yourself
Scorpio (8th house): your body is a tree grown around barbwire. You protect yourself by moving on. It can be second nature for you to move on seamlessly with your head held high from any number of painful situations that would cause most other people a tremendous amount of disturbance. But somehow, long after cutting your ties you begin to notice yourself compulsively bringing up these experiences (either in conversations or through intrusive thoughts), and realize the feelings had never actually left you. However you prefer this to the slower, more conscious pain of methodically tending to your wounds (Taurus) because you are continually caught up with a fear that you are running out of time. Sagittarius (9th house): your body is a silent cry of longing. You protect yourself through emotional indulgence. You may have a habit of allowing your emotions to play out on a grand a dramatic scale while in solitude. But you find that the details end up getting lost or overlooked in your tendency to passion. You may know exactly what you feel but you don't understand why. However you prefer this to the sober feeling you fear will come if you investigate to discover the motivations for your feelings are less romantic or mystical than you had imagined. (Gemini) Capricorn (10th house): your body is a clock that remembers everything. You protect yourself through burden. Though you have been through much pain and challenges in life you are not one to turn away from it or fantasize. Strangely your need for escape is satisfied through self control. But you may find that as you work to perfect yourself and the method you have chosen by which to live your life, you feel dissatisfied. You may unconsciously long for someone to soothe you. However you prefer this to letting your emotions flow freely because you fear their changeability and unpredictable waves. (Cancer) Aquarius (11th house): your body is a childhood friend who moved away when you were eight. You protect yourself through estrangement. The emotional impact of an experience may feel alien or non existent to you in the moment, and gradually deeper felt as your distance from it grows. You may find that by the time your feelings are accessible to you the event has long passed. However you prefer this to putting your emotions out loudly in the open without editing or tweaking their rawness (Leo) out of a fear that they will be ignored. Pisces (12th house): your body is the pause between one dream and the next. You protect yourself through numbness. You may feel that you are in a constant state of limbo in which numerous emotions surround you. They deeply affect your world, but are somehow out of reach. The intense variety of the emotions you feel all at once may overwhelm you to the point that you are left with a strange indifference. However you prefer this to passing judgement on your emotions to discern which you should give importance to (Virgo) because you fear this will cause you to lose access to something that feels magical.

Aries (1st House): your body is a concealment of endless craving. You protect yourself through wanting things. You are specific about what you desire, but may find after receiving what you craved that it is not what you wanted after all. However you prefer this to the confusion of feeling that you don't know what you want and are unsure of how you could ever permanently decide (Libra). Taurus (2nd house): your body is a house that is never done being built. You protect yourself through following a plan. You know how the plan is supposed to end, but may find that each time you think you reach the finish you get a feeling of incompleteness. However you prefer this to the chaos of abandoning your plan and destroying your work to start over altogether. (Scorpio) Gemini (3rd house): your body is a distraction of unanswered questions. You protect yourself by constantly seeking more information. You have an insatiable need to research intensely whatever it is that's on your mind, but may find by the end of your investigation you still don't quite understand what you were trying to, and feel overwhelmed by all of the details. However you prefer this to drawing a conclusion and living with the fear that you may have missed or left something out. (Sagittarius) Cancer (4th house): your body is a pool of warm nostalgia. You protect yourself by wanting to both relive and resolve the past. In your mind, you isolate the parts of your memories that made you feel loved, safe, or content and hold them close. You want to bring back those feelings now, but leave the negative aspects behind you. But you may find that when you revisit past experiences (outside of your fantasy), they bring up the same mixture of pain with joy as before or they simply fall flat. However you prefer this to the patience of looking toward your future to cultivate a more steady feeling of warmth, because you are afraid of waiting for something you can't be sure will come. (Capricorn) Leo (5th house): your body is a thunderstorm you hear while you’re asleep. You protect yourself through expression. You feel the urgency to let your feelings be known to others, but may find that what you expressed in the end was a just a simplification of what you really felt which is much harder to access or define. However you prefer this to feeling misunderstood, and the discomfort that comes with knowing that the parts of you which can't be easily expressed are just as important to who you are as the parts you do share. (Aquarius) Virgo (6th House): your body is a system of intricate adjustments. You protect yourself through stressing. You may fixate over small details of your daily life and routine in hopes that this will lead you to having control over how you feel, but may find that after fixing one problem you just move onto another and never quite feel satisfied or relaxed. However you prefer this to letting go of your control and realizing that you have no idea what is going to happen, and very little power over it either. (Pisces)
