I can add to that the wording ”detached” is such nonsense when used on moon related things. Its also really undermine the air moons and I’m really getting sick of it! Its such a bad way to describe air moons. Astrology is not easy in the first place, so choosing incorrect wordings makes it far worse :/.I have gemini moon and I’m one of the most sensetives persons I know of! I’m so far away from being detached from feelings its ridicilous. Also yes ”analytical” is correct BUT since when is it not concidered good to be able to analyze ones feelings? Be able to be your own therapist? Being sble to discern your feelings and understand you are not your thoughts and feelings. And to know why you react in this or that manner? Thats how my moon works for me anyway. I’m very reactive to my feelings and I easily get very sad and upsed, angry etc. So thats correct, that I get washed by all emotions at the same time, its like being hit by a wave off all kinf of emotions. It can take some minuts, hours or 1-2 weeks to process them. And this is what they call ”detachment” I guess. I process my feelings, detangle the mess if its possible, and try to undrstand why or what made me feel this or that way. I accept, a make up a strategy a plan, gain control and try to move pass it. I write in a journal and I never feel bad about my feelings or let my feelings go unknowledged by me. I know feelings can not always be explained either. I just wanna try to.

Being a Scorpio I can clearly find Gemini Libra and Aquas handle emotions differently from the way I process them as a Water sign.
How do you as water moon process it? I’m really interested in this!

Air sign detachment is viewing things as objectively as possible.Most air signs will ask "What would you do if faced with a situation like this?" or "do you think i am overreacting?" etc. They are always looking to incorporate other people's opinions before acting. They try to be as "bias free" as possible i.e remove emotional extremes from their reaction. Sun in Air sign views the self as flexible and open minded. They are often fascinated by things that are controversial or make people " uncomfortable". Moon in Air sign does feel all emotions. But they often critique the "appropriateness" of feeling a certain way within a contextual setting. Often they debate on how they are "supposed" to feel vs how they really feel. Mercury in air sign lets all information in without the "is it practical?" or "is it moral?" filter. All ideas are open for dissection and considered from all angles. Rarely are they "attached" to an idea or readily defensive about their ideas(unless Pluto/Jupiter/Mars aspects it) Venus in Air loves to communicate or exchanging ideas. They tend to be attracted to people who are expressive or have eccentric ideas. The world of experience or novelty arouses their interest. The beauty of ideas and the way that they are expressed or communicated. Mars in Air is energized by ideas. More than Venus in air whom often passively enjoys and toys with them, Mars in air is likely more defensive(even rigid). As they are more about putting those ideas into action and can be too attached to their ideas You are more likely to find critique kind of thinking or negative thought patterns that tend towards extremes with Mars in Air than even Sun being there. Mars in Air is also the least likely to be objective. Having intense feelings of either "approval" or "disapproval" to ideas they either deem brilliant or banal.

I believe it's meant (for Aquas) they aren't 1:1 people. They are more a collective type. That's the general take I get on how it's taught. 11th house nature isn't the one, it's the many. Where others are involved. Of course we have more to us than what parts are Aqua, assuming we are speaking of more than the Sun Aqu. The other Air signs are more interpersonal in nature, me thinks. Librans are completely good (I believe) @ 1:1 relations. Gemini might pick a favorite person to be their twin pal or such. IP: Logged |

So it's not about not "feeling" but rather being detached from "reacting" to certain situations.

Actually my 3rd is Venus, not Mercury Aqu so I may be a bit more feeling. I come across as detached because when drama is present I really can't tolerate disharmony. This might be my Midheaven Libra too. I have been accused of being "detached", that's my non engagement of drama (disharmony). IP: Logged |
