I’m on the Libra/Scorpio cusp and don’t have a great relationship with my mother. I lovely her dearly but she can be extremely annoying and overbearing. I’m 29 and she’s still treating and talking to me like I'm a child even though I left home aged 18. A few of my Scorpion female friends and relatives also have problematic relationships with their mothers. So do you reckon this is a Scorpion trait?Mystic IP: Logged |

Hi there, im a Libran with Venus in Scorpio & yes my relationship with her is not good but it is hard to be general with this type of question as it all depends on your circumstances & your mothers emotional make up.------------------ Just give me the bad news first...... IP: Logged |

I've actually seen the opposite with my Scorpio friends. The Scorpio women are very close to their mothers, almost tied to the aprons strings still. The men, however, all have issues with their fathers. Either the father has abandoned them, or died or acts in a divisive manner. I think you'll have to look more closely into the aspects in their charts. IP: Logged |

Traditionally, your Moon is going to tell you more about the native's mother. The Moon's natural house, the 4th and its ruler might also be a good place to look.

Actually, my mom was very close to her mother and truly admired her. Unfortunately, my mom lost her mother during her childhood and to this day she still feels like she's not "complete." Though I'd imagine anyone who has lost a parent must feel the same way or similar.IP: Logged |

I have scorpio Moon....I find my mother overbearing and quite often she has put me and people in my family in a position where we have little to no power. For example, she refuses to cosign for a loan so I can go to college unless she gets to choose what college I go to and what major I take. My father would cosign for me but he has poor credit because of all the house bills my mom refuses to pay on time because she's angry with my dad. There's a lot of drama in my house, but my mom uses a lot of manipulation tactics to get what she wants. My mom is a Cancer Sun, father Aries Sun. I have Cancer MC. She was definitely the dominant parent, and I found much more nurturing comfort from my father than her. She and I have a poor relationship and I'm moving 800 miles just to get away from her.

wow moonpixie! I thinki t is a good thing sometimes to really spread those wings and fly on your own. I am kinda surprised that firey aries dad lets her call the shots. Aries men I always thought had a way of making things happen the way they want it to and knocking down each obstacle like they are swatting knats. Usually very strong personalities.IP: Logged |

he's an aries moon! i just don't get it, which is why i'm starting a new topic on their marriage right now....he's very take charge with everyone but my mother. he's your typical dad with me... protective and always calling me... and but with my mom she gets all control. i just don't get it sometimes... but she's cancer venus and scorpio mars conj asc so it makes sense on her part.

I also wanted to add that an astrologer friend of mine has a theory about Scorpios. I have found that it has held true for all of the Scorpios (and Scorpio Mooners) I know, but I have no idea if it would apply in a general sense. His theory/observation is that Scorpios, being children of Pluto, generally must contend with some sort of traumatic event in their childhood which forces them, from a very early age, to deal with death. As I mentioned in my above post, all the Scorpios I know have lost their fathers in some manner. One lost his father to a career in the Serbian police force which made his father completely cold and unavailable - sort of like a robot. Two of them lost their fathers to alcoholism and subsequently death. Another, a woman, lost her father when he abruptly left and started a new family, completely cutting her out. For these Scorpios, it all happened when they were about 5 years old. Mind you, they were all born on the same day (but not the same year). All 4 of them have mothers who seem to want to keep them tied to their apron strings in some way. The Scorpio Mooners I know, on the other hand, all 'lost' their mothers however not in a physical manner but in an emotional one. These stories are much longer, but suffice to say that although they technically have their mothers in their lives, they were abandoned by them. By the time all of these mothers returned to make amends, these Scorpio Mooners were no longer emotionally available. IP: Logged |

Wow, Love that theory is something. I lost my father when he left my mom for someone else. I don't remember how old I was, but I know I was over age 5. Also, I lost my father to death when I was age 26, he was an alcoholic.IP: Logged |

WOW OH WOW!! I have to agree with that 100%.although my astro make up is Libra Sun, Sag Moon, Venus Scorpio. On a different thread I was saying how my mother was physically there but not emotionally & now that I am 35 she want to make up & play mother & daughter, but the feeling of love I had for her as a child is simply not "there" now I am not emotional about this anymore, I feel like im in a place of acceptance of myself & my feelings in regards to it all, I don't hate her but I don't love her either.

I have the Sun conjunct Pluto in Scorpio along with Venus and Mercury in Scorpio and the Moon in the 8th. Not to mention a ton of Pluto aspects (all of my personal planets and my chart ruler have Pluto/Scorpio aspects or sign placements).I'm very close with my mother. We've had our fair share of power struggles, but I love her to death. My father and I have a distant relationship that was far worse from childhood until about 2 years ago. We're not close, at all, and I harbored intense resentment towards him for many years. My mom and him are still together, and he's always been around, but he's never really shown much interest in my sister and I besides discipline. Now that I'm older, he feels he can relate to me so now it's like hes making up for lost time or whatever. But yea! I love my mama, we're very very close.
I think you're better off looking to the condition of the Moon, its ruler, the 4th house (or 10th...depending on who you felt was more "nurturing") and its ruler..as well as planets in the 4th.
I don't believe the Moon in Scorpio itself influences difficult relationships. At a basic level, it means the individual may have experienced their mother as intense, secretive, passionate, protective, observant, mysterious, powerful, controlling, stubborn, and/or controlling. All traits associated with Scorpio. My Moon squares Pluto from the 8th house. As I stated, my relationship with my mom is terrific. There were power struggles as a child, but now that I'm older the aspect and influence has manifested as a deep and profound, almost spiritual or psychic, attachment and understanding of her. The ruler of my 4th house, Mars is in Aquarius and exactly opposes my Moon...which could explain why the emotional attachment is so strong and active. So as my natal 3rd house Jupiter gets the best of me, I'll close with --

She has Donuts for Dads coming up and sh e is not too happy about it, that and the Daddy-daughter dance too.Oh well! IP: Logged |

My Pluto in Scorpio is exactly opposite (1° orb) my Moon in Taurus and sometimes I wonder if there even is a relationship between me and my mother... I also got the feeling that I'm the "bad guy" (or girl actually) and have the upper hand. She seems so weak sometimes... ------------------ Asc: Scorpio Sun: Leo Moon: Taurus IP: Logged |

I am Sun/Venus/Jupiter in Scorpio... My sister is Sun in Libra, Moon and Mercury in scorpio...We both have very difficult relationships with our mother. Maybe its our mom's leo sun and Taurus moon ..but she has been very manipulating and uninvolved. My sister has always had big problems with her...since forever and over the last 5 years or so, both of us have had big difficulties with her..so much as to being estranged for over a year...

My mom is a virgo and i sometimes clash with her critical nature!!! She relies on me too much and sometimes I need a lot of space!!! So that's where our problems arise. I guess our relationship is mediocre...not too good, not too bad. I get along with her, but I'm better off living without her. As a matter of fact, I'm moving out this week. IP: Logged |
