I'm just realizing how sensitive I am as a Pisces sun, Pisces ascendant, and Cancer moon! So does anyone have any tips for someone whose feeling a bit overwhelmed by all the stimuli?? I feel like locking myself in my room sometimes, but even then I still feel sooo much!!IP: Logged |

Hey Thibolisa I completely understand what you're talking about as i have a moon in pisces myself...I think we just have to look at the positive side of that "problem" maybe if we try to deeply understand the fact that everything we are facing is completely needed, and moreover- full of potential treasures for our souls. Well isorry i dont have an answer to your question, but no doubt the approach must be positive! Moran ------------------ Moran IP: Logged |

thibolisa, having only a cancer Moon, I can only imagine what you must be going through. While you have to find some way to filter out some of the tremedous stimulus coming in to your psyche, you also have great opportunity to accomplish a great deal. You would do well to live somewhere fairly remote, where you can reduce the input from others. If there is any way at all, you must not remain in an area where there is a lot of negative feelings, they will only pull you down. The key to your growth will be developing the willpower to withstand others influences. My Virgo sun would like to have some of your sensitivity and abilities. Best of luck. Lanny IP: Logged |

I can relate, I have pisces sun, scorpio moon, and cancer rising. Just remember to surround yourself with positive people, that's what I've found most helpful. Another thing that has worked for me is channeling my energy into something creative, like painting or decorating. I also live near the ocean, and just laying in the sand is very relaxing.

thank you everyone for replying!!! I got alot out of what everyone said. I think it is important that I just accept these as gifts instead of something negative and ultimately it will only make me stronger. My dad commented one day that water is the strongest thing on earth. It has the power to sooth and calm and it also has the power to destroy. Also, symbolically when I think of water I imagine the depths of the sea.. all the cool looking strange fish and other animals that are being discovered and that live there. I relate that to a water mind..full of creativity and uniqueness. Thanks for all the posts!! Have a lovely day.IP: Logged |

Hi thibolisa, welcome!Someone gave me a great affirmation to do when I feel overwhelmed by others' energy (I also have a CancerMoon). Just focus, breathe deeply, and repeat to yourself: "The energy in my aura is my energy." This can work for any sign. Lunargirl IP: Logged |

thibolisa - I've not the...gift ( ) ...of a water moon, too, but I do have a Pisces Sun & Scorp Asc. The above suggestions seem on key (esp. taking care of the company you keep). I can only add that, if possible, make time for yourself if you feel like you need it. It'll give you a chance to re-center and clear yourself. IP: Logged |

Did my smile show up? Thank you for all your replies! The affirmation that lunargirl gave me works wonders for about five minutes and then it seems to fade. Its time to find some new friends. Thank you everyone for sharing! IP: Logged |

Hi guys, not been around for a while. Pisces Sun, Scorpio Moon & Ascendant. To me water is knowledge, as deep as it can go. Knowledge can of course be powerful, but more often it can be only a deep knowing pain eating into your soul.Then again, you could look on the bright side and realise your experience of your own existence is richer than others even come remotely close to. You can't have your cake and eat it. I know I wouldn't choose to be ignorant to the things I feel and intuitively decipher and absorb, just to alleviate the pain. Would you? I doubt it. All you can do is find the correct channel and your greatest "weakness" will be become your biggest source of strength. Easier said than done though isn't it? Swerve

I have to agree with you that I would not choose to be ignorant and ignore the pain, but it is so hard especially for my family to understand me. I think by giving up the pain, I would also be giving up the great highs I get from feeling so deeply. I remember when I started to become more sensitive after I left my parents, having this huge explosive orgasm just by listening to music! And my body feels so incredible when I dance and things like that. So, no I wouldn't give it up. It is hard though with my family because as I was growing up my parents were all about repressing feelings :flash: and didn't allow me to express or feel mine. I was constantly holding my breath. So you can imagine I've been practically exploding with emotion since I've left my parents. They are constantly telling me I'm "too sensitive" and I need to "get control of my emotions." It's hard to when I see and feel abuse going on around me and I run to the rescue being the martyr that I am and try to stop it from happening and I start balling. Well, then everyone around me tells me I'm crazy and that they are not being abusive and I"m overreacting. Ugh. That is the difficult part of feeling so much. My best friend always says, "never let anyone tell you who you are." And so I don't. But nothing is ever solved with the abuse I see and feel in my family because they are so disconnected from their feelings that they don't even know that they can't even tell that what they are doing is really wrong. On the plus side, like Shieldrocks has said, I am able to help people to open up with their feelings even though to me it feels so normal.. Lots of people comment how deep I am and all this. Ok, I'm done venting!! Thank you everyone for all the posts!! IP: Logged |
