so this is something i keep finding on the internet on astrology sites, but is it true? i keep reading that us men with afflicted moons or venus are abusers and cheaters. as you all know i have both, but i'm not an abuser, and not a cheater ,nor do i hate women. the moon and venus in a man's chart represent women he meets,so wouldnt that mean he would meet or be drawn to nasty women? thats been my experience. i've also read women with afflicted mars have a tendency to meet or be drawn to bad men. so if we interprate afflicted mars in a womans charts as her having bad experiences with men, shouldnt we also interprate an afflicted venus as someone who has bad experiences with women.IP: Logged |

YES.It's true. Aries Venus Retro Venus Venus square Mars Moon square Mars Sometimes Aries Moon They're just flipped. You're not included - because as far as I'm concerned you have Venus and Mars in trined air signs... so the square aspect would not be the same as an *actual* square. IP: Logged |

@odette, all the articles i read say an afflicted moon or venus in a mans chart shows that he can be abusive or a woman hater, not just venus square mars. my venus squares the moon, mars, pluto, semisquares uranus and quincunxes chiron and my moon opposes pluto, so i should be an abusive s.o.b, lol but i'm not.IP: Logged |

No that is not true. I know a man who is a feminist and he has Moon opposition Venus in cardinal signs (Moon in Libra and Venus in Aries). IP: Logged |

Ive met many people with venus -moon hard and easy aspects. I feel like hard aspects people are more humble and careful about people and everyone. I often see hard aspect people brings more lifeexperience than easy aspect people.. Square and opp is an trigger aspect and not always an bad one..Its not alway easy to know what cause our problem. If it is our genetical inheretance or grow up surroundings.. or maybe both. IP: Logged |

Astrology only offers possibilities. It gives us raw materials. What we do with them is up to us. Charts represent tendencies, but we always have free will.While I don't see you as an abuser, I do honestly think that you can be a bit negative about women sometimes. I don't feel like you are at the hate point yet, but it seems at times, while you can and do get along with some women here, you seem frustrated with women, or have attitudes towards women that tend to be negative--not to the point of outright misogyny yet, but if you're not careful, it could develop into hate later on, when you're older, which I don't think you truly want to happen. I think that you do want to get along with women, and the good news is that you can. Nobody can say, "my chart made me do it". Again, you always have free will. On top of that, remember that there are different degrees of evolution with every sign and placement. You can have those positions and seek to become a highly evolved person. The choice is yours.

I think there is deeper stuff involved as to why they become that. Like affliction is just a hard aspect to a malefic right? So say moon square Pluto which I have..When Pluto has a negative relationship to the Moon in the birth chart: This is a very deep and painful affliction which creates tremendous anxiety within the individual. When there is even a hint that their security is threatened, they will burst out in a most terrifying rage. Much of this exists in their imagination, but nevertheless, very real to them. To most people the event that triggered the rage seems like a very minor one. The negative outburst seems totally uncalled for. This person is always "putting out fires" which don't really exist. They often react with such intensity that people tend to avoid their company. They can be very coercive and emotionally demanding, and they find it practically impossible to adjust their needs to the needs of others. They are simply too busy trying to take care of their own security needs to be bothered by those of other people. http://www.astrostar.com/WoundedMoon.htm I think I can be an abuser, cheater, misogynist given the right circumstances for them to occur but there is always free will. Misogyny isn't always hate or mistrust. It could be objectification and such. IP: Logged |

Well I’m a girl and I have mars opposite Pluto, and mars opposite moon. My dad had a very aggressive/abusive personality and that’s how he treated me growing up, so when I was younger (mainly in high school) I was drawn to guys that would treat me badly. Because that’s how I was used to being treated and that’s what I thought I deserved. It’s easy to feel like the victim in that situation, because you seem to be a magnet for aggressive/nasty people, but I’ve learned with time that I was unknowingly sending out signals that attracted those types of people to me. And by choosing to stay around them/ repeatedly encountering them, I was playing out my own subconscious desires to re-live some of the trauma and power battles I had been subjected to growing up, this time with me in more control (even if it felt like the furthest thing from being in control at the time). So as a girl with mars opp Pluto, I’ve learned that if I attract abusive men, it may really be a projection of my own repressed aggression I haven’t been willing to own or express. And I think a lot of negative aspects in astrology are like that. Whether we ourselves express those traits or we repeatedly encounter or surround ourselves with people that do, we are still choosing on some level to surround ourselves with those energies, and until we’ve faced the core of that problem the pattern is likely to repeat itself… Just my opinion aquaguy. I really don’t think you’re abusive or aggressive, but I think there could be a reason you keep running into the same type of nasty girls… Can I ask how is your relationship with your parents? I know that's a little cliche lol but I think every psychologist in the world would look to your childhood first to address current problems someone is having, and I think there's truth to that. Even if you didn't have a traumatic or overall negative childhood, everyone takes some sort of patterns from the way they were raised and ends up projecting them onto the opposite sex when it comes time for dating lol. Especially since the moon is supposed to represent the mother in astrology...

my mom is the type of woman who is attracted to men who are bad for her. ever since her and dad got a divorce she has complained how lonely she is, and wants a good man, but everytime a good man expresses interest in her she rejects him. but continues to complain how lonely and miserable she is.IP: Logged |

yes i do get frustrated, lol its kind of hard not to. and i dont think i'll ever stoop to hating women, apathy is as far as it will go. And to be honest heading towards apathy now, i see so many women complaining about the lack of good men in the world , but yet when theres a good man who expresses interest in them , they just arent interested. from a man's perspective it's the woman who is the chooser, she chooses to reward a man with her companionship or decline his advances. So its very frustrating for the decent men of the world to see women reward men who do her wrong with love, sex , or support or all 3 and shut out men who are the kind of man she wants. then said women complain how theres no good men in the world and feel sorry for themselves about how taken for granted and lonely they are, but 9 times out of 10 ,she has atleast one decent guy interested in her but wont give him the time of day. this is the reality alot of guys face, i know, i have talked to many in real life and online. i have also talked to many guys who are very successful with women and they tell me its no secret what you have to do, you have to kind of be mean to women and play games to get them. But i refuse to do that, wont stoop to that level.IP: Logged |

aquaguy91, keep in mind--since you've mentioned reading many articles on the subject--I'm started seeing more and more of a discrepancy between between astrology in theory and astrology lived. I've got a series of books (Astrology Made Easy) that base their finding off case studies and/or draw their astrological conclusions from real life parallels. So, I wouldn't worry too much what some articles have said about how you ought to behave. It's one thing for an article to say an "afflicted [fill-in-the-planet]" can lead to certain behavior, quite another to actually live that planet's energy. IP: Logged |

You know, not to make light of your comments, but I had this exact same conversation with someone once, and it was back in 1983!! The guy I was speaking to, used almost your exact same words, too. The flip side is also true. So many guys only go for the good figure and pretty face, that when The Real Deal is standing in front of them, they totally ignore her. They will totally pass up the true *woman of their dreams* for some temporary Supermodel type, who can have any guy in the room. Yes, I've had that happen to me. My friends have had it happen to them. It has always been stunning to me how many times I've seen guys go for the *worst* possible woman, but the girl who maybe isn't as outgoing, or as pretty, gets totally shafted and passed over. Just look at those "Bridezilla" tv shows. Who in their right mind would *want* some of those women???!!! Yet, those guys are marrying *them?* WTF??? I don't know your age, but I saw all of that primarily in my 20's. As people mature, they learn more about what it is they truly want, and they learn what will truly make them happy. At that point, you stand a better chance of finding *the one*, or meeting someone who is now more receptive to seeing what's good and right in another person. Yeah, it's a drag, but hey, when you get with the right person, it makes the wait worthwhile. IP: Logged |

im not gonna deny that guys are idiots too, i guess everyone is crazy. but i was just saying from a guys perspective it seems that women are rewarding the gmguys who do them wrong an awful lot these days. from our perspective the woman is the chooser, not us, we just basically give our sales pitch and she has the power to say yes or no.

Wounded moon huh? I have this aspect but I'm not filled with rage but I tend to need to be manipulative with females to my advantage. One author calls this aspect a thorny one or something. I don't hate women, I tend to have a perverse lust for them actually and I expect them to accomodate my needs in some ways but not violent or a hater. I also have venus square saturn but I don't know how this applies to me but maybe in the sense that I have had sparse relationships or I dont have the means to have relationships with many women. Moon/pluto tends to relate with females that you had grown up around. IP: Logged |

Sag Mooners are wise  I've got Mars opp Pluto and Saturn. Have dated both good and bad but one thing they all had in common is that they treated me with respect, or they were out the door. I guess it matters how one used the energy. Personally I would like to consider myself not a victim, but a survivor of abuse. And god help the dude who won't take me seriously on that.  I am sometimes resentful myself, but I am moving away from that, at last. IP: Logged |

Everything I read here from men who claim that their afflicted venus or moon does not make them hate women, just reinforced the astrological stereotype about those aspects. The constant litany of complaints about women is quite telling. Unfortunately, they will continue to blame women for their issues, because they're unable to face those issues head on. How could someone transcend these planetary afflictions, provided that they really wanted to? I would be interested to read from those men who have those aspects, and are in happy relationships.
