Astro Notes- Most difficult moon signs to deal with. ⋆˖⁺‧₊☽◯☾₊‧⁺˖⋆
✩‧₊ ( NOT RANKED ) | These moon signs in particular might just face harder things in life based on research, trigger warning for Abuse and SA. ✩‧₊
⁺.⋆ ☾ Scorpio Moon ♏︎ - They may have been the only child, in childhood they may have had an extremely controlling and manipulative mother or mother figure/women family members. The mom and other female members went through horrible sexual abuse and other forms of abuse and neglect, and they probably did too. The mother was coping with her trauma in unhealthy ways, which caused her to neglect and abandon you. The mother hid these parts of herself well, so nobody even notices that you deal with this trauma to this day. Mother/Mother figure has a lot of power over them, whether it’s emotionally or financially, her family has a lot of dark secrets nobody knows about and would never even guess because of how manipulative everyone is, this includes intense violence, neglect, and sexual abuse. Even though someone has this placement does not mean they have mommy issues and I hate that it’s so stereotypical, so many good moms freak out when their child has this placement. Healed mothers are often highly attentive to the emotional needs of the child and very protective of them,they tell them to never trust others, but they also must keep their emotions in control. Scorpio moons are deeply tied to their mother, despite anything, and have a hard time breaking ties or even leaving her. The emotional intensity and rollercoaster of this relationship often continue over the years. Scorpio moons are told by people that they are too intense. Honestly, I feel like only another Scorpio moon or Pisces moon can understand these people, MAYBE a Capricorn moon, they hate the feeling of abandonment and rejection, and anyone who betrays a Scorpio moon expect a intense emotional experience with them until they cut you of because they will. They are often distant and avoidant yet crave deep emotional connections very much disorganized attachment style. Toxic Scorpio moons put their loved ones through tests to prove their loyalty. Some Scorpio moons can also be obsessive and possessive over lovers. If you make them feel abandoned or betrayed thats when they leave you immediately, or they try to make you feel how they felt. They are sensitive, and their anger is equivalent to an Aries moon anger, passion and emotions, since both are mars ruled moon signs the emotions will be feel intense, they are psychic and can read through anyones mask, they’re like private investigators, they can also still remember the pain and hurt and may hold grudges against people. They may also love deeply to the point where it may become obsessive. As a child, they kept all their emotions a secret because they were told that their emotions didn’t matter, they were rejected and abandoned repeatedly this causes extreme trust issues for them, you never know a Scorpio moon deeply because they hide parts of themselves well. Alot of deaths of identities and rebirths, karmic tests makes them more mature as they age or can do the opposite. Developed Scorpio moons are the bravest, strongest trauma survivors who still feel intense emotional pain, but they alchemize it and turn their pain into something useful, many are very supportive and loyal friends who give advice from their experiences and may be interested in things such as hidden practices like divination(astrology/tarot)or mediumship, psychology, or true crime. Scorpio moons use they’re intense experiences to help others, since they have experienced much, they are healers and empaths, they are able to feel others emotions deeply regardless of whether they’ve been through the same thing or not, they have a strong intuition and can see right through others, especially the hidden parts of others, they can really help transform others into a better version of themselves. Never lie to one because they will spot that lie in a second. They have strong intuition in general. They are secretive ESPECIALLY when it comes to emotions and thoughts, they are private about their life and may suffer from paranoia but other than that, they’re a great person to be emotional vulnerable with.
⁺.⋆ ☾ Capricorn Moon ♑︎ - They might have been the eldest child who nobody ever needed to worry about, and never had problems. The mother/mother figure neglected them emotionally, and she was a workaholic, or was just very emotionally distant, she might have been extremely strict, going through your stuff, and not very open emotionally. In the worst cases, the mom may have died or been very sick or hardly there and some cases the grandmother raised them. The mother might have forced the child to grow up fast and forced them to overwork on work, school, and chores, disregarding the emotions of the child. This causes them to be hard on themselves and not let others in easily. They have a hard time expressing emotions, and they are actually very emotionally sensitive, but they hate the fact of admitting that or showing it. When they feel like they aren't good enough, they fall into a deep depression, because if they feel like they aren't good at what they do, it makes them feel helpless. It's good for this placement to work on telling themselves they are good enough, and its ok to express emotions. They may also come off cold to those who are close to them. This is because that's how their mother taught them to be, serious and closed off. They may also overwork themselves doing school and work. Honestly, Capricorn and Aquarius moons are the smartest moon signs, but it's because they were forced to overwork. These people will be great in business or working with the elderly, they may seem a bit avoidant, distant, and cold which people will hate, but either way the people who love them regardless of their problems stay. Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, so they may get alot of lessons regarding emotions and such, the mother may be the karmic lesson😬 also they could be a more serious person or come off that way but the most giving person once people get to know them and they love gifting loved one things or spoiling them. For men this gives big sugar daddy energy 😭.
⁺.⋆ ☾ Aquarius Moon ♒︎ - Aquarius moons grew up being told to choose logic or emotion, the mom or other female family members could have been extraordinary academic achiever’s or work with science or technology in some way, it’s common for this placement to experience emotional neglect and being told to shove their feelings to the side because feelings “don’t matter”. They may be emotionally detached, and you come off cold like Capricorn moons, Aquarius is also ruled by saturn traditionally. The mother was their first best friend also and may be a humanitarian. Their mom could have been very smart but genuinely detached from them either emotionally or physically. This causes them to intellectualize their own feelings and reject help from others due to the fear of being vulnerable. Despite coming off emotionaless they are actually emotional but they rather intellectualize their feelings instead, quite literally like they are a robot they rather use logic over emotion in any scenario which causes them to appear nonchalant(they really aren’t though 85% of the time). The way they express their emotions is unqiue and they may just be unique and weird in general(in a good way). Despite being seen as detached they are actually very likable and social and get along with friends and peers well but they value people who can give them space to be by themselves. They are natural humanitarians and want to help the world become a better place. Aquarius is a air sign so they are able to detach their feelings easily when things become too stressful and emotional
⁺.⋆ ☾ Aries Moons ♈︎ - They may have been the only child or the eldest, their mother may have neglected them and left them on their own, or forced them to be independent at a young age. They may have had to always do things on their own, like make money, clean, or just basic needs, or the mother was neglectful and didn't provide any of those needs, so they had to fend on their own. The mom may of been more of the dominant one in the household rather than the father and told everyone what to do, they had a strict household and since Aries hates restrictions, this caused them to act impulsively, like go on dangerous sprees( drugs, alchool, sex putting themselves in dangerous situations) they did this alot in their free time, maybe sneeking out to go do something to highten their adreniline and lighten their fire. If not that they dealt with their emotions alone and were never able to ask for help due to them being raised and taught that feelings don't matter and that they make them seem weak, nobody was really there for them. Mother, grandma, sister, or any female family member may have been also raised that way, and they may have been physically abused or doing the physical abuse, or there was violence in the home. Just like a Scorpio moon, their emotions are intense, and that scares people off, so they thug it out and try to act ok, but unlike Scorpio moons, that anger and hurt never stays a secret they are rather blunt about it. Men with this placement may be violent and physically abusive women can also, but it really depends on the Mars placement, etc. Otherwise these people are very passionate about their needs,desires, interests and relationships. Their emotions may be intense but they flare out fast. They love adventure and new experiences and needs to be on the go or doing something physically to keep them emotionally satisfied, this is a good thing IF it’s not dangerous activities such as drugs or spending sprees because since this is a mars ruled moon sign, burning that emotion energy through doing something physically really helps you feel better.
⁺.⋆ ☾ Virgo Moons ♍︎ - Virgo moons process and handles emotions in a very analytical manner, its more inwardly than outwardly, you may overthink and over analyze everything and can over work themselves. They rather not be carried away about how they feel also. They rather not openly express their emotions to someone and rather keep them private. They are very detailed oriented and pays attention to small details other may not notice, you are very practical and realistic when it comes to things. They love to take care of those they love supporting and caring for others is their specialty. Although if thry do not have a balance routine they don’t feel stable. They may be a perfectionist and anxious, if they feel like they are no help, it makes them feel hopeless, the mother may have been very critical to them, she may have been very strict on order. She wanted you to be helpful and not a “burden”, if they didn’t follow her orders they would be criticized. In order to feel emotionally safe they needed to be useful to her or others in some way and be reasonable and practical. Virgo moons wants to feel needed or else they feel extremely anxious. They are very critical and judgmental of their oen feelings and may place high expectations towards people and may become emotionally cold or distant. This moon sign uses logic or emotion so they very much intellectualize their feelings. When it comes to self care, diet and exercise they are very serious about it, it makes them feel stable, for this moon sign they need to be careful not to be so self critical of themselves and manage overthinking and anxiety.
⁺.⋆ ☾ Pisces Moons ♓︎ - Pisces moons are very whimsical and deep. Although they can suffer with therms of addiction and depression. If they are a earth or air sun / rising or scorpio rising/sun you won’t know how deep and emotional they are. They may have learned at a young age how to control and manage their emotions but that doesn’t stop how deeply they are felt, pisces is the fish, fishes have no shell to protect them, so pisces moons are very sensitive and feels emotions very deeply. They are very much the therapist friend because of how empathetic they are. Emotions are expressed through art ,music,and imagination, this placement could be great artist and very creative and can turn their emotions into art. This moon sign is probably the most psychic and intuitive moon sign in my opinion because of how sensitive they are, they can sense anything. They are very dreamy and speaking of that can receive messages through both visions and dreams. As a pisces moons trust you gut, if something doesn’t feel right its not, pisces moon genuinely just know things without no logical reasoning behind it. They can be very interested in mysticism, spirituality and occultism like scorpio moon. Protecting emotional energy is important because they can pick up on peoples energies and emotions more quickly than any of them water moons. Other people may also project their feelings on them. They can also be affected by delusion and fantasy and may isolate when their emotions are felt to deep. They may have a very deep emotional connection with their moms like how a Scorpio Moon would, but the mother may be an addict or have psychosis frequently. They can also feel their mother’s emotions also, they are very psychically connected to her. The mother may have periods of absences which can create confusion which can make them feel left out, unseen and unheard. This is how pisces moon learn to read the emotions of other and pick up on them intuitively. Burnout is common also, in general pisces moons need to learn how to be more grounded and to make sure to look out for themselves as how they look out for others.
