I feel too deeply, and it can spin out of control. And since of course Aqua is a mental sign, it can give me severe mental anxiety.

Now while my feelings run very deep, that doesn`t mean, I will let them show to just anybody.

My Libra Moon feels you.

So, let me give you guys the Water Moon perspective:

1. It's okay to just FEEL the feelings sometimes. Plain and simple. No rationalization. Because, even though the strength of them may scare you or throw you off, guess what? All feelings are temporary. They come, they go. If you naturally let them take their course, they are much easier to deal with than if you try to repress, ignore, or control them.

With my moody Water Moon self, I think I've developed an innate understanding of this that helps me go with my inner flow. If I'm sad or something, all I have to do is just sit in the moment, breathe, express it, and let it go. I know it'll pass eventually.

2. You don't always have to be so nice or polite. I've found this is especially a thing with Libra Moon. Emotions are inherently selfish sometimes, because it is about you and your needs/moods/whatever. It's not a bad selfishness. There is such thing as healthy selfishness. And you don't have to care so much how other people are going to take your reactions/opinions. After a while, all that repression will drive you crazy and it's inevitably going to come out (in ways that might shock those around you who are used to you being so "nice")

3. People don't always need a rational solution to their problems. Sometimes, people just want to vent. To rant, to cry, to simply be listened to. Because not everyone approaches emotional matters as rationally as you guys. This is what can make you come off as cold or unfeeling, even when you are sincerely trying to help and when you do actually care. So, try simply LISTENING sometimes and letting the person get it all out, without minimizing the importance of their feelings.

I think that is what makes having two Air Moon parents frustrating, as a Water Moon. They seem to get it, but not completely. They want to have some intellectual discourse about my feelings and they want to just take things as easily and breezily as they do, instead of letting me simply express my feelings. I just can't really get on the same page as them. My father's chart is Water-heavy, so he's not dense as my mother, but is still essentially detached at the end of the day because of that freaking Air Moon. He's good at displays of sympathy and caring, but can also really freeze up when things get deep.

I couldn't really imagine processing my feelings like that. Water Moons are just so instinctual. We REFLECT on our feelings a lot and can be very, very introspective, but it's not a cerebral process at all. We're talking about emotions, not algebra or physics. To me, it's just something you feel, in your heart and deep down in your gut. And, of course, it's not always rational. It's not supposed to be! But, alas, that's what makes Water and Air so completely different.

I think Water moons take emotions too seriously. I find Scorpio moons to critical of EVERYONE. Most water moons out there want to see another person's emotional reaction. They want that emotion to show up and not be covered by a wall of ice. You guys expect others to take your emotions seriously.

Air moons don't take what water moons take as that serious. We air moons just want to deal with our own issues without having to deal with someone else.

Let me give you guys an exampled.
Let's say there are three Libras in a room. One had a moon in Cancer, the other one in Scorpio and another one in Gemini.

The cancer moon has moon square sun, and finds it frustrating to deal with her emotions. She hates it when her partner cant open up to her, but finds it difficult when her partners doesn't understand her emotions.
Cancer moon wants to nurture. Libra sun can't balance nurture and logic, with the square.

The Scorpio moon Libra will find it easier somewhat to express how she feels, but will domineering when it comes to emotions. She has to know or else she feels disconnected when her significant other is acting odd. Her logic is wiped out and irrationality of emotions sets in.

The Gemini moon Libra will skim through the deep emotions to solve the situation and then talk about how she felt, or what went wrong and device a plan to fix it so no one's feelings get hurt. But what I find about Air sign moons, and I know some will not admit it. But before and after a situation is solved, we go hide for a while. When we do this we sulk, and always ask ourselves, should I leave this person/sitaution? so I could avoid this again? We always find a way out, so we dont feel like this, but most likely find a solution so we could be happy again.

My earth moon gets along with earth and water signs.

My Libra stellium gets along with air and fire moons.

Haha. Maybe it's my afflictions (or my Sag Merc) but I'm a people pleaser to a certain moment...I like peace but I'm not going to keep a nice atmosphere at the cost of my well-being. I can be very blunt.

I don't have a problem with that but isn't it just better to listen and then give as best advice as we can think of? Unless someone doesn't really want to get out of their misery...But in this case I might get impatient.

The best ability my air moon friend believes anyone can have, is to remain objective even in the most subjective/painful of situations.

I was watching a movie with a Libra Moon once that had a guy who killed his in-laws whilst sleep-walking.

Now, at the trial, the fiancé (the daughter of the people killed) was divided as to which side to take; should she believe in her partner? Or be outraged at the killing?

At the end, he wasn’t convicted for the murder as the Jury decided that it was not “intentional”.

She asked me what I would do if someone I love was to do that. Would I believe them?
I said yeah I would, but it would depend on the nature of the individual. I’d have to know the person well enough to know that this was an extra-ordinary circumstance.

She agreed with me and that was that.
Another friend (water Moon), I asked the same question.

He got extremely defensive and said that he would definitely ensure that the person was prosecuted to the full extent of the law.

To him, family was EVERYTHING and no matter how he felt about the murderer, if she wasn’t family, she deserved to do time (whether the killing was intentional or not).(He also has Moon (Scorpio)-Pluto conjunction so yeah)

Some water Moons tend to make things subjective (especially if the moon is un-aspected or aspects Pluto/Mars by conjunction; how would I feel if someone were to do that to me? They don’t really look at the “cause” but the “effect”

Some Air Moon tends to be more detached (especially un-aspected or forming aspects with Uranus/Mercury/Saturn: Would it be reasonable/ justified for me to behave like that? They evaluate the “cause” and may downplay the “effect”.

I’m a Cancer Moon myself and I don’t like extreme reactions or emotions in people (Moon-Mars square) but tend to have strong emotions myself.

I have friends with moon in Aquarius and we have a lot of fun together. They are sympathetic, but not empathetic to the issues of others. They seem confused and uncomfortable with strong emotions.

Libra moons I identify with as well, they seem the warmest of the air moons. Not very loyal though in terms of friendship. I can never fully trust them, so I keep them at arms length.

Gemini moons are flaky, but cute in a childlike way. We get along, as long as I don't trust them with any responsibility.

I cry more easily watching movies than in real life. Real life deals with real issues.

And I'll think of solutions instead of crying with my friends. But if I couldn't think of one ill keep quiet or cheer them up or ask them to think positive. That's another form of solution, to me.

Is it good or bad?
