The only man I ever knew to cry when feeling emotional about something was my Cancer ex. (he's also my kid's dad). He wouldn't...like...BAWL and sob out-loud, he would just get a lump in his throat, and would have to stop talking for a second or two, then his eyes would tear up. Then, he'd choke it down and try to be strong. He still gets glossy-eyed fairly easily. I think that's very touching. I'm another one of those people who rarely cries. I just analyse my feelings away. Typical Aqua moon.  IP: Logged |

From "The Book of Lovers" ?Yeah. It's spot on... except for the ambitions. I'm in the film industry and gearing towards law school. Tie it all up with my Aqua rising and Sag mars... and I'm adventurously impulsive as well as vindictively explosive. 22. AZ = Arizona. (Southwestern U.S.) To not continue entirely off-topic... I usually only cry out of sheer rage whenever I'm set to erupt every few months. It's almost like my tears are sweat trying to cool me down. If I'm with my partner, I can cry when watching those few extraordinarily passionate films... like "Look Back in Anger" or "Night of the Iguana". Or when alone and a song is completely attuned to my mood... so much that it's the first instant I listened to the accuracy of the lyrics. With the exception of one, (he's dying), never have any of my lifelong male friends seen me cry. Only my brothers and father. Come to think of it... only family or deeply committed girlfriends have seen me shed tears. My father didn't let us cry as kids... and that really, really f*ed up my older bro w/ Cancer moon.

You need to find a good mentor.Have you seen "Even Cowgirl's Get the Blues"? With Uma Thurman. If you can fully grasp the concepts in that movie, than you're a natural. It's like meditation, or the martial arts, including Tai Chi. Trust me on that ... hee hee ... IP: Logged |

Well, I don't want to bore people here again about what to put in their survival bag (switchblade, a mirror, a lighter, mosquito repellant, mini sewing kit, paper, pen, etc.)So, plus you got the mentor, which is the most difficult part. Plus a whole lifetime without a watch. IP: Logged |

From amazon.com"From the Inside Flap Still Life with Woodpecker is sort of a love story that takes place inside a pack of Camel cigarettes. It reveals the purpose of the moon, explains the difference between criminals and outlaws, examines the conflict between social activism and romantic individualism, and paints a portrait of contemporary society that includes powerful Arabs, exiled royalty, and pregnant cheerleaders. It also deals with the problem of redheads."

Cazi, Libra and Scorpio moons get along well in my personal experience, and so your moon placement brought back memories.I'm a Cancer Moon myself, in the 8th house, with Sag Mars, same here with crying, first anger, then tears, then explosion, like a tea kettle going off. Question, to another Sag Mars with water moon, do you get embarassed easily or is it just the opposite?? Natasha

I DO get along with many Libra moons as friends... but definitely, absolutely, without a doubt and most importantly NOT in a long term intimate relationship. Wanna see the exact textbook definition of vile jealousy? Well, strap on some shatterproof eye goggles (the kind they use to watch atom bomb tests)... and watch me teamed up with a Libra moon girl. Their general need to become shallow friends w/ EVERYONE infringes my ingrained NEED for loyalty. Makes me ready to murder any poor schmuck who smirks at me, thinking he has something over me 'cuz my floozy Libra moon hypothetical girlfriend is paying him much smiling attention during the middle of our _______ (insert such events as "dinner", "dance", "stroll", "conversation"... etc.) Then when she finally notices that my seething sulfur glare scared off the little prick... she'll endlessly argue by intellectualizing my passionate reaction as irrational... (when the only thing that's irrational is our relationship)... wrapping up the experience with a Nuclear fallout ribbon that lasts the next 15 seconds of our now-to-be-trashed relationship. Just enough time to reload. Next target? Four feet away with lipstick. She'll float off crying... while asking herself how anyone could be so cruel to deny a princess... and for one split-second she'll actually experience a deep-felt emotion... that triggers the memory of her male-friend harem waiting to console her. Lights up and hops back on her seashell. After plenty of loving from her mass of hopeful worshippers... she'll return at my door and try to make amends... she MUST have her way after all... but I'm halfway around the world by then... NEVER to return. I don't want any radiation problems... and I leave the nuclear clean-up to her harem. All the Libra moon females I've dated had an Aphrodite complex. She loves to stir up the men she's involved with... placing them in soap-opera situations so that they'll either compete or kill each other for her. Only so that she can exercise her famed "peace-making" skills and soothingly manipulate the pseudo-victor into believing he's won (then calls up the other guy later that night). Outside of a relationship... I love them... how couldn't I? They're goddesses. They believe it so much... that they actually are. Seriously. They're great to be around because they do make you feel special. ... and THAT is why... I do not date Libra moons. They're like dining at a five diamond restaurant... they'll have you believe you are their most esteemed client... but really... they'll give service to anyone who saved up and dressed up enough to get in there. Even without a reservation sometimes. She'll take care of the music and candlelight of course. And me... with my stubborn Scorpio qualities... I like to frequent the same spot... and to have my reservation postponed in order to accommodate someone else... after my endless loyalty. KAPOW! Bye-bye! I'm loving the Cancer moon homecooked private meal more and more. Oh... and I don't get embarrassed easily... Must be b/c of my Aqua rising & Uranus sextile mercury. IP: Logged |

Oh-... and do I cry during any of this? Only if I hop back in the car... flip on the stereo... and I hear lyrics like... "You know he got the cure, but then he went astray He used to stay awake to drive the dreams he had away He wanted to believe in the hands of love His head it felt heavy as he cut across the land A dog started crying like a broken hearted man At the howling wind, the howling wind He went deeper into black - deeper into white He could see the stars shine like nails in the night He felt the healing, healing, healing, healing hands of love Like the star that is shining from above He put his hands in the pocket His finger on the steel The pistol weighed heavy His heart he could feel Was beating, beating, beating Oh my love - oh my love - oh my love He saw the hands that build could also pull down The hands of love" ... and then I get p*ed off that someone got to me... and I put my fist through the windshield. Consequently, I become obsessed with my work to repair the damages... until it happens again. IP: Logged |

cazi -It's wonderful that you can express yourself this way. I love it. Reminds me of my Mercury in Scorpio in my 6th. I'm a Libra Sun, but lots of Earth & Water, so flaky don't live here. What some may READ as flaky, (and then walk out of the theater to avoid the ending) ... that's another story. I can remember my first years of true dating, I had "opportunities" like this, and yes, it made a few hot-blooded lovers extremely jealous (why - I don't know - I'm alive and I'm beautiful) - But I don't know, maybe it was my analytical Venus & Pluto Conjunct Virgo in my 4th, or my "voice of wisdom" - my Jupiter & Saturn in Capricorn in my 9th ... I just wouldn't take it much further, and do not seek the company of gossipy, superficial people. I'd look for two sources here. One, if the behavior is hiding a deep-rooted fear of being alone. Or two, if she has anything prominent in her Chart in Fixed Elements. IP: Logged |

AJThanks. My mercury is in the 8th. I wasn't referring to dating... I was talking about long-term relationships. When I'm dating... I AM the distant, detached and flirtatious one. Pure Aqua rising, Libra and Sag. Nothing but cheer, dining and playful wrestling. Not much scorpio comes out aside from my stare and stillness. In these cases, the girls I date either become insanely possessive, jealous and sometimes even violent- especially when we're not hooking up. I've just come to accept it. Strapped down for a long-term ride (only way tie me down is to have me feel that the girl is in it for the rest of life)... and SUPRISE! ALL of my 8th house team, my tight Pluto-Sun-Venus-Saturn conjunction w/ Mercury tagging along, AND my Scorpio moon take over as if all that breezy Libra, Aqua and Sag was just a Clark Kent identity for my real Batman persona (yes, Clark Kent, not Bruce Wayne). It's because in a relationship... the moon usually takes over. Never will Libra moons (Not talking about Libra suns) be intimately compatible with my own moon sign. Instinctually flighty indecision does not see eye-to-eye with innately fierce commitment. I was told that perhaps a Libra moon with a pluto rising could do the trick... I've yet to meet one... If you were asking me about one particular girl, then you're talking about the ex that I initially brought up in this thread. (There's been others) She barely had any fixed elements... All cardinal and mutable except for her Leo rising. She definitely had deep fears of being abandoned. Sadly, she didn't admit it until it was waaaaay too late. She claimed it was her own Libra father that did the damage. She had a very tough chart and I might have been able to continue helping her as a friend had we never become sexually involved.
