i like aries moon a lot! even though they get crank up quickly, but they dont hold a grudge like some other water element....i wont say names LOL anyhoo, aries are passionate, firey, i get along with them very well, since i have strong inflence of aries element in my chart as well.
i like ppl direct to express their anger so at least i can apologise, if i stepped on thier toes. at least i think this way...
i rather deal with a water sun/fire moon than a earth sun/water moon, sorry just speaking of my personal experience againIP: Logged |

I use to hold grudges but that may be because of other qualities in the chart. I still do from time to time but none in the past year or year and a half or so. IP: Logged |

Carl,
Aries moon in V House.
Yeah I to get once in a while nasty tempers (mostly at home, with my family members - maybe with the reasoning that I wanting famly members to be knowing and understanding of whats going in my mind without me speaking a word). Not violent though, just a angry 2/3 words (nothing bad of words, just the anger). though the words said during these temper situations are different they always mean "why don't you understand me and you should know me very well by now on all fronts". Luckily never thrashed anything (anyone lol ... can't imagine doing that to someone  )
However it is very very momentary, it can't last for more than few minutes. Like Peri said, never vengeful and not hold grudges.
I too have been trying to get over such situations (though once in blue moon). On the other hand, I am also frigid-n-cold (cool) for outside world, yep probably shy too (n I am shy - Pisces Sun). And I try to be perfectionist and sometimes expect others also to be same in work related manners.Also have Mars in Cancer, however not volatile and nasty ... maybe peculiar Betelgeuse, very true - I expect everything now from others  However luckily other aspects (Pisces Sun) have not made me induce nervous/irratable/rattling effect in other people. On the feelings front (leaving rare impulsive sharp words), they are quiet secrely hidden inside me, holding back all of it  Thanks Carl, Interesting to know what OCD meant .. V IP: Logged |

This mother of an Aries moon is getting veeeery nervous reading this thread. Everyone keeps saying that they unleashed the temper tantrums at home with family and then grew out of it as they matured. So what does the "family" - meaning just ME, a single mom - DO in the meantime?!? If you had any parenting tips for your own parents... what would they be?
What do I need to know to better understand her fiery emotions and feelings? What should I do when she goes into a tantrum? Parenting books say "ignore" or "hug," basically. There are times when she will allow neither of these options... she is only 3 now... what will I do when she is a teenager!?!?? Yikes.
It is very difficult balancing the acceptance of her nature with my own need for quiet, and my avoidance of extreme emotional states. She really gets my scales a-swingin'  and often I will yell at her almost out of self-defense after she has gone on for a while. My only saving grace is to put her in the bedroom so I can have my OWN time out, so that I won't yell at her, but that won't work as she grows because she will just take out the washcloth that I use to keep her from opening the door.
I know it may sound cruel, especially to those who aren't parents yet, to shut her up in the bedroom, but I try to reason with her, hug her to help her through her angry emotions, I let her know that she will have to go sit in the bedroom by herself to calm down if she doesn't stop her tantrum or stay in the "naughty chair" etc. and she will continue her fit until I take her to the bedroom, and then she will throw herself against the door, screaming in anger at me.
If I remain calm the entire time, she often gets angrier, as if she isn't satisfied until I have become upset. If I get upset but somehow find my peace in the midst of the noise and emotion, she will often pick up on it with her little emotional radar and will them come for a hug.
It's hard for me to determine the right amount of firmness to handle her since I know I have to allow her to have SOME power, so as not to suppress her nature, but I also have to be firm enough that SHE is not the one in control. I know it is important that I get this dance corrected NOW, so that things won't be out of control as she grows.
How do I help my Aries moon express her emotions safely, in a constructive manner? And what should I know to help me understand her better so that I can handle my emotional reaction to her behavior better?IP: Logged |

3 year olds developing their independence -- it's a fun ride!MysticMelody ~ please take a look at this book...it's helped me understand ways in which to communicate successfully with toddlers...specifically in resolving temper tantrums. i don't agree with this author's entire philosophy on toddlerhood, but his methods work! 
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0553381431/sr=1-1/qid=1137 182252/ref=pd_bbs_1/002-4381449-9823263?%5Fencoding=UTF8 it's also in dvd format... toddlers do this, irrespective of astrology...mine does...and sometimes i just beg him to let me have a few quiet moments just to think....  what other placements does your babe have...perhaps you can try appealing to those....? my aries moon gives me some passion, but my capricorn ascendant and libra mars give me lots of balance in these respects... so an aries moon doesn't always imply, without exception, extreme aggression and expression...these other placements for me temper my emotions a lot...esp when i focus on those parts of my personality. well, love, light 'n blessings to you and your babe...a babe is a precious creature, and mama's love is the most powerful substance in the universe...may it flow strong and true for you. love, salome

hi mysticmelody - i'm sorry to hear of your difficulty with your daughter. regardless of astrological signs - i think any child at 3 "tests" people, places, and/or things.as for the moon in aries thing in your daughter - i'm just going by experience in hopes that it may help in some way - i am by no means a child psychologist or a biological mother: i remember saying in front of my grandmother that i must have been a good, quiet baby since i'm fairly quiet now and she looked at me and said you had your moments so i guess i was a little bit of a problem. i do remember the days in the corner at school and the time my grandmother and i had to meet with the day care instructors and a parent because i punched this little boy for cutting a piece of my hair with scissors - there were little squabbles here and there especially since i was the oldest of 4 but i'm "okay" now. when i read you, i thought of the things i do remember - to that, i figured those things i remember probably helped "ground" me. once a week - i was taken to one of those classes run in a museum on saturday mornings. there is also always karate, boxing, ice skating, finger painting, local plays, the park, sculpting - just once a week and then too, it was required in the household i lived in - every sunday go to church or you don't go anywhere on that day. so...that was that. if we acted up, those saturday activities or whatever - didn't happen. discipline: i see you have a time out chair. i was sent to stand in the corner - except the corner was called like some city like - go to chicago, go to san francisco, go to paris - that sort of thing and this was only in school. it took up until high school for me to finally - simmer down and then i was too busy with activities. also, it helps if she knows, that just like she can blow up and everything on you - you can do the same, your daughter knowing you are the mom and she is the child is important. lol, i don't know if the sitting thing works much - some of us have too much energy for that and may explode because of that as well as being confined in a room. do you tell her to pick up her toys? leave the door open, if you can. chores: if you wash the dishes, have her dry the dishes. if you sweep the floor, have her pick it up with the dust pan. have her help you with the laundry.....have her fold the dried clothes. if you have a line outside, even better. make her feel - "useful". schedules: your daughter goes to bed at ??? every night. your daughter gets up at ????. in the morning, maybe go for a walk with her, jog, or exercise with her - i mean, if you do stretches, have her join you. at night, read a book to her before she goes to bed. as for her room - maybe have music playing from ??? time to ??? time every day - some of us like to singalong even if we don't know the words and make up our own. have coloring books in her room, pictures on the wall, have a lava lamp in there. some of us like to pretend also, like pretending to be a doctor, to be a teacher, to be an entertainer, etc., etc., etc......so dress up time might be nice also between the two of you, tea parties, etc. between you two or with her and some children the same age as her. i don't know what else to say - i guess it's a matter of focus for a lot of us. schedules also help because it's something to look forward to - not waking up like, duh, what do i do now. does your daughter go to the day care or play with other children because that might be a problem if she is behaving the way she is with you. the focus is your relationship with her right now, the rest, if a "system" is maintained between the two of you - will help when she finally does go to school. it'll get better - let me know how everything goes, okay? xoxo carlfloydfan - moon in 3rd - according to http://medicinegarden.com/astrology/cw_moon.html
MOON IN ARIES NEEDED FOR EMOTIONAL SECURITY: freedom, ability to take initiative, innovate, create, express his will, feel alive. DETOURS: frustration, anger (can be loud and explosive) when he can't have his own way (feels his ideas are best), may try to force his own way or ideas on others - then deny he's doing this.
MOON IN 3rd HOUSE: Gets support for basic learning, communication, writing, speaking, teaching, transportation vehicles. A lot of psychic attention on these areas, plus on siblings
and neighbors. An instinctive-intuitive mind.

Thank you so much, Salome! I wrote down the title and author of your book suggestion and I will read it. I am skeptical of parenting books lately, as they haven't helped me as they promised so far, but the title "The Happiest Toddler on the Block" is intriging enough to get me to read it and your reccomendation is valued. I identify with what you said about begging for a few minutes to think your own thoughts! That is another time when I find myself talking sharply and being snappy.
I will be standing still when I am in hurry, paralyzed because I can't sort my thoughts out enough to even remember what I am supposed to do next and her little voice will suddenly rise into my awareness, repeating over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over what she had been trying to tell me for the last 5 minutes while I stood transfixed, trying to think my own thoughts long enough to move. lol. Then I will realize that her non-stop talking is the reason I can't sort things out and I will snap, "Go put your shoes on! We are going to be late!" and she will cry because I said it sharply and then the fiery theatrics begin. A little bit of hurt feelings combined with dramatic loud moaning that attempts to punish me for my outburst and maintain my attention at all costs.
I always thought that if I gave her enough attention, she wouldn't act that way. I have been home the last few weeks on break from college. I work part time at the college too so I have been home from work these weeks also so I have spent many hours doing activities with her, singing together, dancing together, walking outside, we've had movies nights and attended many family activities where she has had attention from relatives etc. I feel like I wear myself out giving her attention and still she craves more. Lately I am wondering if all of my parenting books have just helped me to "spoil" her in a way.

Thank you Amisha, we do everything you suggested except the Saturday activity thing, which is more of a hit and miss thing than a regular event. I take her to do fun things almost once a week but never on a schedule. I plan to think about using your once a week method because I agree it would be a fantastic way for her to see and experience the consequence of not being able to attend that activity if she mis-behaves. I don't know if I, as a single mommy going to college and working, will have the energy to be on the go every Saturday and Sunday as well as all week long, but I might be able to modify the event into a scheduled time for her and I to do some special activity together, whether it is at home or away from home.
Thanks for your input, you don't have to be a child psychologist to have ideas on the subject... I think I have read and learned almost everything the child psychologists know through my own studies at home and psych in college and I still haven't found the answer. I think I will discover the answer better from another parent, or like you, an adult who feels their parents did a great job. ------------------

Hey MysticMelody,
I realized that I (Aries moon) always get irritated when I am alone and thinking something deeply and someone comes and breaks my chain of thoughts. That’s when I act rashly with sharp words (few seconds though) as I want to be alone pondering over whatever I am doing and someone breaks the situation.
And when I try to understand why I can't be more disciplined (act normally) when such situations take place, I feel that the other person should understand/know what I am into and shouldn't disturb (which is impossible for other person to know). So I am still learning to get out of this habit of acting irrationally when my chain of thoughts break. I also am not sure if the rashness act is only with someone who is not so close enough and feel that if someone who is very close (galfrnd/wife) would not cause such rashness, as then my thoughts won't be within my mind but would be free out of my mind, to be discussed with the close person.
So maybe whenever u get irritated, first thing you say to ur kid is 'I am thinking in my mind', this might make you realize yourself, that you are thinking alone and your kid's interruption is due to her not knowing where your mind is. I guess not all thoughts can be discussed with kids, however whichever can be, you could try explaining the thoughts in your mind to her (I guess she is the only other person who is close to you and your heart). First time you hear her voice, train your mind to have a thought that your kid is the only one whom you love and she needs attention NOW. Might require practice to change behaviors of snappiness. Keep speaking out your heart with her, wherever and whenever you can. Don’t expect the reverse way, as she is just a kid and even after growing up she would need her own space for her thoughts.
I guess she hasnt got anyone else to play with, so you are the only person to attend to her and give her attention. Her behavior might be normal for a toddler of 3.
By the way, I got an impression that both you and your kid are having Moon in Aries. what is her sun sign? try reading section for "Children" in Linda's sun sign books too (might get additional insight).Hope this helps. Surely soon both of you would be taking care and understanding each other & having a great time. Love and peace to both of you. villy IP: Logged |

 Hi everyone, I have an Aries Moon. How I react is that when I was younger, I tended to want everything my own way. Now I have a habit of speaking too quickly before I think, and when I recap said situation, I realise where I went wrong. I can be impatient; if I am in a queue and it is a long one, boy do I get impatient. I need to think though before I speak. That is my one fault. I cannot wait for tomorrow, especially if I am waiting for something in the post, again no patience. Hope this makes sense. IP: Logged |

Hi MysticMelody ~
Reading your stories about your daughter really brought the memories back….. I’m also a single Libra mom, with a 9yo Aries Sun/Leo Asc/Leo Moon son, and life at your house sounds much the same as life at ours when he was younger! The temper tantrums were incredible when he was your daughter’s age – but things have gotten much better as he’s matured. He doesn’t throw himself on the floor in the grocery store and scream anymore!
The instant Arien temper is still very much present, but blows over quickly – is it the same with your little one?? My boy can holler and roar and growl at me and actually jump up and down screaming in my face, then five minutes later (when he knows I’m now steaming ) come over and give me a hug. It takes me awhile to get worked up, so it takes me a while to calm down too.
As Libra moms, with our own needs for quiet and peacefulness, rationality and reason, do you think we find all this FIRE a bit intimidating?? Where is the Fire in your chart??
Our dual role as both parental figures gives us a much bigger challenge than in typical nuclear families. Since I’m the only one here, I’m the only target for ALL my child’s emotions. Since I don’t react by spanking (not anymore anyway) he feels safe about expressing his overwhelming feelings and I let him do so until he crosses the line and starts blaming me – “you are the Meanest Mom in the Universe!” (I have a Black Belt in that).
I still send my son to his room when he explodes or mouths off inappropriately, since he won’t stay in the Time-Out Chair. What other discipline techniques do you use?? I usually take away privileges – fun things to do – the computer, TV & dvds, outings, etc. When she gets bigger you could have your daughter do a Think Sheet before she gets her privileges back – a short paper where she writes down the offense, what was wrong about committing the offense, and what would have been a better option. Another thing you could do is the Reverse Time-Out – go to YOUR room and shut the door! Tell her that her behavior is causing you to be very angry and you would rather not yell back at her, and go to your room (drives them nuts – no one to get either positive or negative attention from)!!!
I’ve tried the hugging-an-angy-child measure, and at least for us it didn’t work. The strong feelings need to be expressed somehow, and it only made my son angrier when I showed him affection and sympathy – I just had to let the feelings be expended. Then some time later when Calmness Is Restored we do the hug & cuddle – which shows him that he can lose control yet Mom still loves him just as much. In our case the lesson was: losing self-control loses privileges / retaining self-controls retains privileges.
MM, I think you’re are doing all the things you should be. I have read a lot of parenting books too, but I only took away a little of value from each one, since every child is different. Being a parent is truly Flying By The Seat Of Your Pants! I can tell you have strong intuition – use it and count on it!
Hang in there, it WILL get better – after age 5 they start being a LOT of fun!!! And don’t forget to take care of yourself too – college, job, and a child doesn’t leave much room for pampering YOU, but I hope you’ve managed to carve a few minutes out of each day to do something nice for yourself. ‘Zala IP: Logged |

Thanks, Villy I will put it in my mind to tell her that I am "thinking in my mind" and maybe she will understand some day. I can't always stop give her full attention every time she wants it or I would never get anything done, but I think that it's a fantastic idea to get into the habit of telling her that I was "thinking in my mind" because I think that is a concept she will be able to grasp now or soon. I also think that is a good way to put it for her understanding. Also, just the act of training my mind to tell her that will delay any other snappy response I might otherwise have. I am going to try it! Thank you again! IP: Logged |

Zala, I can see why Pixie thinks so well of you It's so nice to hear from another single mother. It IS difficult being the only parent, if only because there is not anyone else there for me to say, HERE, TAKE CARE OF THIS CHILD WHILE I GO IN THE OTHER ROOM AND LOSE MY MIND. At the same time that I feel she suffers because she has to see me when I am acting badly, I also know she benefits from the two of us having a primary relationship together instead of her being a "third" in a relationship I would be having with a husband.
In a way, I DO find the Fire intimidating, but at other times what little Fire that I have will be playing the devil on the shoulder, telling me that I shouldn't put up with that kind of behavior etc. It is said that you do your best parenting before becoming a parent and I fit that description well.
I identify with your comment that it takes you a while to get worked up, so it takes you a while to calm down. I feel the same way. It's getting to the point where I resent her causing such a big upset and then just going on happily after she has stressed me to the point of exaustion.
My daughter is brilliant, and very mature. I am constantly amazed at what she understands and learns. It is sometimes hard to distinguish when she doesn't understand because she is just a child, and when she is just willfully disobeying to test me. I used to be a little too lenient, I think, because I wasn't sure she understood what I wanted her to do etc. when she seemed to be ignoring me. I think that has caused me some problems now and sometimes I might be too hard on her because I think she understands when she doesn't. It's quite the balancing act for this Libra mommy.
It's so important to me to be a great mom for her that I think I might see things and worry about things that many or even most parents wouldn't even notice or worry about. I bet you are the same way.
I really relate to your statement that you are the only target for all of your child's emotions. When she acts a little "bratty" for Nana or Auntie, I find that I have tiny little something inside of me that feels satisfaction, instead of the expected embarassment that my "little angel" is misbehaving. The satisfaction comes from the relief that she doesn't just "hate" me, she just acts that way to test etc. Sometimes in the thick of things, that is easy to forget.
The writing of the paper is a good idea, I used to have her say back to me, "I don't scream at Mommy" or whatever fits the situation. Lately she just refuses to do that too, so I have to keep leaving her in the bedroom and then coming back. She is very stubborn.
I would LOVE to do the reverse and go to MY room, but she just follows me and then screams and crys and throws herself into the door. My mother suggested headphones, and I don't have a stereo or headphones in the bedroom right now, but I think I better remedy that soon. That could be my salvation...
Is it easier after 5? I hope so. I keep feeling so relieved because she can finally do a few things for herself, so I think that things will get easier... but then something else comes up.
Thanks for your reply, Zala, it was really great.
Oh...
and for all the times before I was a parent myself when I judged other parents and had thoughts like, "Well, give the kid some ATTENTION for goodness sake!" or "Well, if you would have raised them correctly from the start, they wouldn't be acting like that now!" I send this out to the Universe:
I'M SORRY!!!! Now, Universe, please quit Karmic-ly kicking my butt!!!

MM ~What a wonderful sense of humor you have!! We certainly need it to get thru the early years of their childhood – just wait until she gets older and you’ll hear / find out things like:
(annoyed) "Mom! Are you listening to that Space Music again?!?" (on Pink Floyd's 'Learning to Fly')
(proud & pleased) "Mom! See, I'm having Ice Mud!" (having mashed Neapolitan ice cream reduced to the color of *mud*)
(excited about gift-giving) "Mom! I brought you Nicky!" (drapes his long-suffering cat over my shoulder while I'm typing at the computer)
(Deep Thought of the Day) ”Mom, there are millions and billions and trillions of boxes of (microwave) popcorn just like ours out in the world…..” he blinks thoughtfully, and sagely shoves another fistful into his mouth…..
(me sympathizing with his bad cough left over from a bad cold) "No, Mom, it's really better now -- I'm trying to cough it back up into my nose where it belongs!"
(a random observation) "Air is Invulnerable!" I asked him why and he said "because it's all around us and can't be destroyed!" At the same time that I feel she suffers because she has to see me when I am acting badly Don’t sweat it and beat yourself up, MM – they’re really resilient and forgiving, and besides, none of us is perfect, and the sooner they understand that, the better. It's so important to me to be a great mom for her that I think I might see things and worry about things that many or even most parents wouldn't even notice or worry about. I bet you are the same way. Yeah, you hit that nail on the head, at least, I was much more like that when my son was younger – I’ve loosened up as he’s grown, and so will you. I would LOVE to do the reverse and go to MY room, but she just follows me and then screams and crys and throws herself into the door. Don't worry about it and get those headphones!  My son used to bang his head against the wall. I used to rush over to him and pull him away to make him stop. But I learned to resist my urge to protect him from hurt, and just let him bang away, after all it's HIS headache!! She's not going to come to great harm throwing herself against your door, and screaming and crying at the top of her lungs will tire her out and she'll nap that much longer..... As for that karmic butt-kicking we’re getting now for those thoughtless and uninformed ideas we had in the past about child-rearing?!?!? Not only are we getting retribution for those comments, we’re getting it for our own childhoods: remember when our parents used to say, “Just wait until you have kids of your own!!!” It’s a tough balancing act, MM, but even when they’re awful during the day, when you see your sleeping angel at night, it really makes you feel like Superwoman doesn’t it?? This wonderful beautiful being that you brought into the world will be someone special someday! And I believe that THEY chose US before they incarnated, so there is something that only WE can teach them during their sojourn here in SchoolRoom Earth. You are Strong and Powerful! And you have what it takes inside, to manage this tremendous responsibility, believe me! ‘Zala IP: Logged |

I love this interpretation of moon in aries. I think its funny cause its true. lolThe Moon in Aries: can be much more emotional than the Sun in Aries. The temper inclines to be short, but, as is typical with Aries, it doesn’t last long. Tomorrow, they will be fighting about something else. It is said that you can’t persuade anyone with an Aries Moon that they are wrong because, by the time you’ve gotten your arguments together, they’ve already acted on whatever it was and gone on to something new. The women in the life tend to be Aries types, active and aggressive. IP: Logged |

Zala, you are so beautiful... AND funny! I laughed and laughed at "Deep Thought of the Day" LOL again!!
As for the comment about them not being able to hurt themselves too much from the head banging..........*The following contains disturbing images* Well, guess who just had to go to the hospital on Tuesday, to get a stitch in her pretty little lip because she slammed her face into a solid wooden bench as we were leaving pre-school/day care because she didn't want to leave her playing to go to a place she dislikes?
The emergency room nurses pretty much strapped her down and then pricked the novacaine? needle into her painfully tattered lip about 10 times while I hugged her and looked into her eyes. I saw the extreme terror at her realization of the pain that is possible in this world and I told her that "it would be ok," and that it was "almost done." Her sharp shreiks turned into horrified gutteral pulsing sobs as the spidery ends of the stitching threads danced along her lips and chin. I told her, "it's ok, she is just using string to tie your cut closed... like tying a shoe, she is making the bunny ears, it is just string!" and then she quieted to relieved sobs.
That was Tuesday and she hasn't thrown a fit since then.
The nurses had told me that I should stay outside of the room while they did it so that they could be the "bad guys," and she would think that I am the "good guy." But I told them that I wouldn't do that. I told them, "What do you think she would think about me if I left her alone with the "bad" guys?" It was a very emotional and stressful experience. We are both changed because of it.
I started back to school and work this week and I am EXAUSTED. I work with all women and most of them aren't very intelligent and a couple are pretty much insane, but I do have one Soul "sister" who helps the day go by in peace and joy.
And in another area of my life....My professors seem to be plugged into the Universe this week... I am recieving concept after concept and key after key. Everything is clicking into place. They are teaching me mathematics and educational psychology, but really they are teaching me the Secrets of the Universe.... IP: Logged |

Salome What a wonderful gesture, I am a big chicken about emailing and giving out addresses etc over the net due to some problems I witnessed others having on another message board, but in this case I totally wish I wasn't!!! Don't worry, I will get it through the inter-library loan. If you get in the typing mood before then, BONUS!
It really does a world of good for me to "hear" other people saying things about wanting to send some good energy out into the Universe, like you said to me in your post.
As hard as my life has been lately, I also feel really really, unbelievably blessed.IP: Logged | |
