We get along very well and he expresses his feelings for me openly without being scared.

It surprises me that we get along so well cause I have an Aries Moon, and I always thought of these two Moons as extreme opposites. My Moon though is afflicted as it's square my Neptune (in Cappy) and exactly quincunx my Pluto (in Scorpio)

His Moon is also conjunct my Dejanira and Child asteroid (maybe Ami Anne can help with this one )
And his Moon is also conjunct my Midheaven and my Sun/Moon midpoint.

Perhaps too prone to long for something they wouldn't be able to define themselves

I've said this before, but I just think they have a really beautiful spirit. They're sweet and sensitive and empathetic, but not all of them are the stereotypically weak doormats.

I do think a common thread is that they have highly addictive natures. Similar to Moon in Scorpio. But, with Scorpio Moon, it's about obsession and intensity. Pisces Moon needs something to lose themselves in. The best route for this is creativity, artistic work or humanitarian work of some kind. If not, they'll either lose themselves in substances or relationships. The latter can be just as unhealthy, especially if difficult aspects make them prone to having a high tolerance for abuse, neglect or mistreatment.

And yes, they are very open and probably express their feelings the easiest, generally speaking, of all the Moon signs. All that emotion just flows from their being. Just amazing people, in my view.

True. He lost himself in his Ex while she openly cheated on him several times. He literally said; I took her back always until her last cheat after which she left me for that guy. Verry striking how easily they admit this.. I have a Scorp-moon, a bit different.

I don't fully gat your second sentence about them being prone to long for sth..? Could you explain it more??

They yearn for something that they themselves can't define.

In my experience, Pisces moons tend to be very perceptive and careful not to grate on other people's nerves, if we can help it. We usually mean well and are forgiving.

We can be very affectionate...really laying it on thick

Downside is we can be too sensitive. You might feel bad if you say something that you meant in a neutral way and we are hurt. Even if we *know* you didn't mean anything by it, and try to conceal our honest reaction, it can still be a problem.

For example, I sometimes withdraw from people after they offend me, but will often be cryptic about it. I just get quiet, try and rouse myself from the funk, then act like nothing happened. But I can "go quiet" for days, weeks, years.

Some of us become reclusive because "minor" issues with people bother us immoderately.

It's like they are so disillusioned by life/love, that they start getting into all kinds of compulsive behaviours to avoid the pain of actually facing their fears. A lot of them are cynics.. although I suspect that at their core, they're too idealistic.

What I don't like about them - and that's the main reason of why I'm usually unattracted to them once I get to know them - is that they tend to escape, conceal, and fantasize way too much. My Moon is in the opposite sign of Virgo and I don't do well with (over)sensitivity, indecision or wishy-washy tendencies.

But if they're the evolved type and actually know what they want.. you're lucky. Cause they will be by your side, support you, and show you love the best way they can. They are very soulful people once they get in touch with their inner selves.

Moon in Pisces has a tendency to get "hooked" on things so he or she should not get into drugs, drinking or even smoking because they seem to never be able to quit.

I think this is the weakest place for the moon, myself. These people are never bold enough to stick up for themselves and just continually take an emotional beating instead of speaking up.

(Edit: I can be argumentative, too, but it's hard for me to say why I sometimes vocally challenge people and sometimes just subtly tune them out or put up a smokescreen. It depends on the situation.)

You've just described my PIsces Moon son to a tee. I just wish there were a way to change him. He is hurting so much of the time. His marriage is breaking up because his wife just couldn't put up with his ways anymore. He didn't want to go places where he didn't feel "comfortable". He disliked going to her parents house because he "felt" the father didn't like him. Everywhere they went someone did or would say something to put him into his shell.

Of course all depends on aspects to the Moon. But this has been my experience with Pisces Moon people.

Right, it always depends. No one here who knows me would say I am never bold enough to stick up for myself.

He also lies a lot. Cannot handle any stress with people so he lies.

I hate liars but I love him. He's the only liar I love. Go figure.

Keep feeling sorry he's doing horrible things to himself. Any ideas how to help him? Any good strategies?

I'm sorry for your lover's behviour. Sounds like he's lost himself a bit.

Pisces, ruled by Neptune and ruling the 12th house, needs to get in touch with the higher vibrations in order to feel content and stop the self-sabotaging. I know it can be quite hard for them to accept a spiritual side to the world, and they will usually cling to their atheist/materialistic views but really, what they need to do is develop their spirituality and self-awareness, even moreso than other signs - by meditating, for example or praying, doing charity work, helping people, getting creative, getting more positive, getting in touch with the Light within. It's hard to grasp for a lot people, but we do have the capacity to feel good about ourselves and our life without having much to do. Just being grateful, practicing kindness and connecting with people/God is enough. So, try to suggest they work on their world views and become more self-aware and focus on the bigger picture. I think trying to find the Jupiter part of Pisces (optimism, faith, exploring, seeking the truth) is crucial in order to effectively deal with the negative manifestations of Neptune.

By others I am described as affectionate, spacey, and open. Im very surface open with superficial emotions but closed off on what I really feel deep down. Not that my surface emotions are fake its just not the whole story. I do have quite a bit of Scorpio in my chart though that could be why.

posted April 05, 2013 08:16 PM            

I have a love/hate relationship with my Pisces moon. I love how it makes the simple things in life the most full-filling. The most satisfying for me is nature, music, and art. This might be sad to say but sometimes I think I'm alil TOO sympathetic. Sometimes I feel bad about yelling at people even if they deserve it, I can't go to Rated-R movie with my friends, and most importantly I hate how much it holds me back from achieving my goals.. I tend to create tornados that don't exist.

posted April 06, 2013 11:12 AM            

I don't know how much it's from my moon or major Neptune aspects (Neptune parallel almost exact to my ASC, as well as closely conjunct my MC) but either way, my emotions are the most important thing I consider when I wake up each day.

I am empathetic so much so that I cannot watch the news at all and if I hear a conversation of something horrible happening, I have to leave (and then it plays in my mind and I can't get it out, it's horrible.)

I cry over everything. Just seeing someone cry makes me cry. I am (or used to be, at least) one of the most gullible people on the earth. I was the "weak" and quiet one in elementary school the girls all picked on. I never stood up for myself.

All my life I've had this outlook on life that bears little resemblance to reality. I have seen the good in people and while acknowledging the bad, I'd ignore it.

I've had almost no sense of identity, of who I really was. It took 44 years to come out of this fog and I am STILL learning about the reality of things that I wasn't seeing properly.

And of course there is definitely the escapism. I love my wine, I escape by reading all day - novels of mystery, supernatural stuff, all of that...I imagine instead of getting out and actually DOING something. But I have no urge to "get out in the world" because it is not who I really am.

I am a homebody at heart, a stay at home mom who loves the home, nature, being cozy and comfy with my cat, a book (or computer) watching the kids play outside. The world and most people in it (except for a few close friends and my awesome family and relatives) are way too harsh for my sensitive spirit.

I do get offended waayyy too easily and will avoid the person who offended me. But I will not be mean to them. I hate any kind of confrontation so I therefore have an extremely hard time telling someone that she's offended me. So I either cry or I seethe quietly at home about it, write about it in my journal, then treat the person politely but with a different kind of quiet distance.

Maybe it's a heavy Pluto influence (conjunct DESC) that gives me a slight urge to totally ignore the person or drop them and never talk to them again. Or maybe it's the Pisces Moon opposite Pluto? Who knows, maybe it's the heavy Scorpio Neptune but I definitely imagine revenge but I would never act it out.

I'm at a point in my life where I have finally walked away from relationships that were very wrong for me and my personality. I'm accepting of myself and how extremely sensitive I am. The people I have in my life and also the things I choose to read affect me greatly - I latch onto ideals and I always long for something...something. What, I don't know.
