THE MOON SIGNS (pt. 2)
In astrology, your moon sign represents your emotional nature, habits, reactions, wants and needs. The way your moon sign manifests will differ because of the house it's in and any aspects to the moon. If you don't relate to the description, that can be why. The whole chart should be taken into account, nonetheless I've listed things I’ve seen commonly represented among by Moon signs!

Aquarius Moon

- Have good control over their emotions, often described otherwise as "detached"—this is because they are the water bearer. They can observe emotions and judge from the outside in. The description of "detached" doesn't mean they're not emotional or can't have intense emotions.
- Focused on their team, community, friends, etc.
- Has a lot of different sides to their personality.
- They're very good at detaching from their emotions and looking in from the outside, which is why meditation can be very helpful for them in my experience. They pick up on it quickly and it tends to work well.
- Additionally, motivational interviewing or playing devil's advocate works well for them too because they tend to be able to see different perspectives and the bigger picture.
- Tend to want quite a big circle of friends and acquaintances. They're not necessarily extroverted (depends on the rest of the chart) but if they can't find the connection they crave in their inner circle, then this can result in them wanting many friends and acquaintances.
- Often feel like they don't quite belong, which can cause feelings of being better or worse than others. Aka the "everyone's an idiot" memes.
- At times, even though their rational mind is a valuable tool for retrospection, it can make them feel cold and numb because they spend so much time looking at their feelings that they don't really feel them.
- Alternatively, they could also completely brush off their emotions if they're not on the forefront of their life. This can result in a lot of compartmentalization.
- Emotional situations can thus confuse them, and they may not quite know what to do. Which can be overwhelming and cause them to cry, or "explode". They have the occasional outbursts.
- Paired with fire suns, their emotions (especially anger) can be very explosive and sudden.
- During arguments, they often go for "logic".
- They tend to want new things and change a lot, they can get bored of situations (job, school) and people quickly if it's not refreshing enough.
- Their coping mechanisms often involve some sort of social situation, such as hanging out with friends, drinking, clubbing, etc.
- Tend to have a certain vision that they wish to fulfill, and will try to do anything to get it done.
- It can be hard for them to stay grounded and down-to-earth, especially if Aquarius is very prominent in their chart.
- Tend to rebel openly against things they don't believe in, and prefer to march to the beat of their own drum. So they're quite stubborn when it comes to what they believe in. In turn, they can feel very misunderstood.
- Can be very innovative!
- Tend to be opportunitists.
- They're real thinkers, and while they can definitely be feelers, it's hard for them to express it outwardly.
Pisces Moon
- Compassionate, kindness just seems to seep out of you. This, unfortunately, can also make you very self-sacrificing to a fault.
- You're very charitable and generous, if someone's in need of something, anything at all, you're willing to give it.
- You're extremely empathetic and find it easy to take on other people's emotions, especially in social environments. This can make you more introverted because you're quite susceptible to feeling everyone's feeling in a room, like a social sponge kinda thing.
- If you don't have it yet, you definitely need some kind of place you can retreat to. This can be very relieving for you. Just a place where you can let your walls down and still be safe.
- As I said before, you're extremely charitable, so you probably find your passion in some sort of practice where you're serving others or devoted to something. This can be a partnership, but also friendships, religion or even your studies.
- Tend to feel misunderstood and are quite prone to emotional turmoil, unfortunately.
- They're a completely different person when they're under the influence or something, even if it's just that they're drunk or something. It's a complete 180 and some Pisces Moons (but also Suns) I know, don't like to drink for this reason.
- Your intuition is so strong. Maybe you don't know this, but that gut feeling you have? Yeah, that's absolutely Pisces Moon. You can connect to things that feel otherworldly or subconscious. Religion, spiritual practices and philosophical pieces are thus quite often admired by y'all. Because it's close to your heart.
- Daydreaming is often said about this placement, and it's definitely true, but even your dreams tend to be so crazy and super vivid.
- It can be hard for you not to slip into negative spirals, or even notice when you're slipping. When you catch yourself however, it's easy to snap back. There's a lot of 'snapping back' with this placement.
- Pisces Moons are very sensitive to music. Healing playlists or comfort songs may be very helpful.
- You feel deeply, while that means you hurt deeply, you also love deeply and feel happiness to your core. Meditation works for emotional processing, noticing what you're doing/how you're talking to yourself, as do devotional practices, take a break from your mind from time to time and let yourself feel that peace.
- Even though you may feel you're very sensitive and that this is very obvious, most people won't notice this about y'all firsthand. Especially not as much as y'all think they will.
- The first thing that really stands out about you to other people is that you can read other people well and have good intuition.
- At the same time, because you guys understand other people's emotions, it can also make you quite manipulative and controlling at times. And this can take on forms that you may not even realize are actually controlling, such as people-pleasing (controlling other people's perceptions of you).
- You guys just need more downtime. This is why Pisces placements in general are so tied to escapism, but there are healthier ways to go about this. Taking time for yourself, caring for yourself, taking a long bath, turning off your phone and going for a walk, etc. This can actually help a lot. Water is very recharging for you guys.
- Stay away from things or people that drain your energy, if you can.
- While this placement is usually associated with empathy, compassion and self-sacrifice, it also comes with a flip-side. Because you're all so focused on others, sometimes this breaks you and you lose care for others and become self-absorbed. You take on everyone's emotions, this includes the negative. If you feel yourself slipping, look at who you're spending your time with.
