When I feel stressed I usually take a walk. Then I'll come home and take a long hot bubble with candles and incense around, listening to classical, jazz, or opera. If that doesn't make me feel better, then I'll follow up with a steaming cup of tea or hot cocoa, some home baked brownies or cookies, and a good book.

Just kidding...I don't have a dog.

I do kind of what Eleanore does, but more rigorous. I have to work out..I need that exertion to help clear my mind - so most of the time that means one hell of a clean house -Virgo rising INSISTS that if My Aries moon wants to "go off" well then she might as well do something constructive....

The result..I feel better and the house is clean. THEN I meditate - take a hot bath with candles.

Right now I am a bit stressed....so it's time to clean.

My moon is in the 7th house, squaring my Merc in Cap in the 4th house and opposing Uranus in Libra in the 1st house. It also conjunct Chiron in Aries

Moon Trines uranius and uranius is in sag. in the 11th house.

Moon squares neptune and neptune is in capircorn in the 12th house.

Well, i guess it depends on what you mean by the word stressed for me i think of it has more as peeved or ****** .

I guess i'm kinda tempered at times, it all depends i guess on what the enviroment is, why i'm mad and how intense.

If its simply stresed with now anger or rage a bath works, a walk or a drive around the block works fine for me as i think for a bit.

If its someone that really got me mad, i can be sorta passive-aggresive, but i normal end up taking a nap and end up forgetting the reason why i'm mad in the first place.

With the moon in Aries in my 7th house opposite Mercury in Scorp in my 1st house (Merc conjunct Sun 1st house - and Venus/Neptune in Scorp in 2nd house) - I don't get mad, I get even . In writing, that is.

I don't know that I get "stressed" very often as such but I know when I get upset I go within. I usually write, write, write, or play my keyboards, or read cards - those sort of things.

It's interesting to note the common thread here of baths. I too love to soak in a hot bubble bath amongst the glow of soft candles and with my favourite oils or incense burning.
