I've been researching Aquarius moons and how they are impacted by their mothers.. and my search has led me here to you lovely, enlightened bunch!

If you are an Aquarius Moon, would you please take a few moments and share with me a few pointers about your relationship with your mother?

Was she your best friend? Was she distant, detached and unloving? How did she respond to your needs? Was there a love/hate relaitonship dynamic going on? Would you say you were/are close to her?

Overall, how would you rate your relationship with your mother?

I'm so very curious to see your inputs!!

Males with Aquarius Moons are encouraged to chime in too!!

Anyway.. my mom has an Aqua Moon and her mom died when she was 3. She had a step mom that apparently used to beat her and make her and her siblings do a lot of housework, but she's really pragmatic and practical when she discusses her. She was like "Well, can you imagine having a baby and then having to take care of 4 other children that aren't really your own? She was only mean to us to teach us lessons."

My mother? "shudder"
I posted this a few years ago.
She has finally left me alone thankfully for a couple years and I hope she continues to do so.
My childhood was a nightmare mostly because of her.
I won't go into all that but my adult experiences are not much better.
Well at least no more whipping me bloody.

My mother still continues to harass and threaten me and mine, even though ignored. She chooses usually the following days to do her stuff.
The date my sister was killed...Valentine's day...Good Friday...Easter...Mother's Day...Memorial Day...Father's Day...My father's birthday...Her birthday...Halloween...My birthday...My dead sister's birthday...Christmas Eve and Christmas day. Sometimes New years eve and Day too.
My mother believes she is the saviour of mankind and Christ's bride. And damns me for not being a Christian and damns my gay/bi/TG and my black friends. She screams death threats at me on the phone messages, that she gave me life and she can take it away.
She said that she can come like a "thief in the night" to see that the Lord's holy vengeance done.(I have had to get restraining orders against her) She threatens my husband that she will come kill him if he has my body cremated if I should pass first.(my living will states that is my orders, cremation). She then tells me she "Loves and Respects" me and Loves all people just like Jesus does, and then tells me I am evil for fornicating with queers. Fornicating is her word for being friends with gay/bi/TG folk, with or without sexual involvement. She goes on and on about gay sexual acts and goes on shrieking about me consorting with the sodomites and nig&ers. Black folk are black because their souls were burned by Satan in her opinion. Then more love and holy white light and all comes out of her mouth again followed by hate and death threats.
During my parents' divorce she tried to seduce a gay man and he rejected her. She tried to pin my rape on him when she knew it was her own Baptist brother who did it and not that gentle dear gay man.(A friend not a relative, she did not realize he was gay) Then she preaches about lying and bearing false witness being sins. Her brother went on to kill my bi Uncle(his 1/2 brother) who had a daughter with the same name as me. He raped her too some 15 years after he raped me.Weird.
Her favorite Halloween costume is a nun's habit.
Yeah, she does Halloween. And passes out Christian Baptist tractates to trick-or-treaters with little chocolate crosses.
To her sex is only for procreation and the only reason I had 26 misscarriages, some early stillbirths, is because I am damned and my pregnancies were made upon me by incubi & demons. The Lord God Almighty and his Angels told her that! (She calls me a liar when I say I love God and know God.)
Then she would send sympathy cards for some of my losses and how she loves me and Jesus loves me, and if I would just Please listen to her wisdom the Lord told her and his Holy angels who visit her...and give her the LOVE and RESPECT she give to ALL, that I would not have to give birth to dead demons anymore.
She tells me to seek deep "Within" for the truth and to be a warrior against the sodomites and the Catholics and to help the Lord wipe their evil spoor from the face of the earth. Pray to the Lord All mighty to send A.I.D.S to kill them all. God works in mysterious ways and his plagues will cleanse mankind. Then back she goes to spouting Love Thy Neighbor and honor thy Mother & Father. This can go on some days for up to 19 messages left on my answering machine.

So is it no wonder that it is hard for me at these forums to ignore certain similar attitudes and insults at me mixed with spookily almost the same holier than thou love and respect for all verbal garbage being preached and spewed at me just as she does?

Rant over for now. The thought of her makes me want to vomit.
She is an alcoholic.
Do I hate her? I do not know what to feel about her but pity and disgust and fear of what she might try next. When she visits her friends in Scotland and Ireland she acts normal. Why? Who knows. Maybe because she goes off the bottle then and takes her meds?
????

I ignore her.
It is all I can do.

Also the house it's in....and aspects say A LOT too. My ex's moon was in Gemini conjunct Saturn, square Venus. His mother was extremely stifling to him. Another friend has a moon in Cancer...nice and cuddly, right? No, it's square Pluto exactly. His mother had a serious chemical imbalance and used to ruthlessly manipulate him.

He was very fond of his mother, she was not at all cold or distant. However, she had poor health and passed away when he was young.

Aqua Moon/Saturn with in his case makes him calm, a good listener (so few about) and excellent in crisis situations.

Unfortunately, media reports aren't much more sophisticated. 9 times out of 10 a miscarriage study will mention drinking or something else to do with the mother's behaviour. Showing how little research time the journalist has put into the article.

But I digress. Thanks for sharing your story, Lexx.

I think children with Aqua moon need a lot of freedom and space to develop their individuality. These children tend to march to the beat of their own drummer, and need a lot of support without being overbearing. They need to be themselves, and not what their parents "think" they should be, which is why I think they may have some conflicts with either parent, not just their mother. Parents like to treat children like they don't know anything, and force them to lead lives they think is best, which may not be the best for the child.

My Moon is in Libra in the 5th and the only hard aspect it makes is an opposition to Jupiter. My mother spoils me A LOT.

But the funny thing is that my Mum use to think I did not like her as a child but I thought she was just a cold lady not horrible just hard to express herself tough cookie i beleive due to the conditioning of her own mother.

My Mum is a Sag Sun, Aquarius Moon, Venus in Capricorn and Mars in Virgo and didn't have a wonderful relationship with her mum even tho she would do anything in the world to shine in her Mums eyes but it was never enough. btw way she was the last child for my Granmother who was in fact an Aqua Sun and Scorpio Moon just like me.

But i still think due to my mum and granmas realationship kinda makes my mum seem "unemotional" but deep down i know shes not at all. Very loving to the family, treats everyone equally (has no favourites like her mum did) hard working from a young age, perfectionist in the home. I would not trade her for the world.

But not to mention her Dad, even though she lost him very young, were very close and had a wonderful relationship and still remembers so much from the age of 5 with her Dad. Unfortunately i do not have a B day for him but i sense he was a Libra.

But thankfully my Mum did not have to suffer her mums "attitude" as she lived with her Aunt and cousins for a good while in the Town of her home country and was bought up in a middle class background but then her own mother then sent her off to England on her own at the age 14 and then thats when things got tough for her..real strong woman still and i always admire her for that.

he is very attatched to her mother - he is cancer asc afterall...
But yes parents tend to treat their children like that and somehow,without knowing they force us to live by their own standards - but there is a time when we all must walk our Path.one way or the other.

My bf´s parents did that to him.that is why at age 17 he left home and passed many hard times by himself.Tehre were days when he didnt had what to eat...days when he was almost letting himself fall into that cemetery of lost Souls..I admire him A LOT by all that he has passed and still...as each day passes by,he just keeps improving himself and it is a wonderful man.
