If I'm not mistaken, Ami has one  My 8th house moon... um, depth not depression, secrecy bordering on paranoia sometimes, deep understanding of other people's motives and compassion for human nature. Ask away if you wish. IP: Logged |

What sign is your Moon in Maira? I'm a 8th house Sun, so I'm curious how a 8th H. Moon functions. IP: Logged |

Emotional extremism is the term that comes to mind with this placement. Mine's in Virgo but I'm still liable to mood swings. Extremely private and a yes to knowing most people's true intentions. IP: Logged |

Ami, you made me burst into laughter with the Cheshire smiley I hope it goes away quickly  Mine is in Taurus and it is unaspected (conjunct Chiron, but that doesn't count), so the mood swings are quasi non existent. I'm trying not to mention things that are related to the fact that my moon makes no major aspects in the chart, such as me always being one step behind my emotions. I feel nourished by deep intimacy; money and comfort also come to mind, but I think that's the Taurus. There's always an emotional dimension attached to money. My Aries stellium would like to have sex as a hobby, but my moon won't let me - I tried and I hated it. It felt like we were both using each other. I'm a plutonian, so I'm used to long periods of celibacy. "Never settle" would be a good plutonian motto. Benedict, I keep noticing similarities between our charts, maybe we should compare them one day? Moon in 8th, Venus in Aries and there was one more thing... IP: Logged |

I actually have a gem venus, but I believe there were a few other similarities. 12th house saturn, 7th house Sun....? I'll post my chart up later in the morning after I've slept. IP: Logged |

i observe the same with my partner who has the 8th house Virgo moon. he also has a Stellium there so which "symptoms" are exactly attributed to the moon, but he's intense and pretty difficult. but he has a real depth in his person. he is extremely empathic, which numbs him and shows up as insensitive. and even when he knows others' intentions, he cannot say "no" and let people walk all over himself. i don't know what makes him do that though.

Well, if you haven't figured it out from my user name...8th house moon here! Mine is in Gemini and I also have an Aries Venus. In my case, I have had someone label it as being "parasympathetic." I can literally "feel" what others are feeling, pick up a vibe in the room, know when something bad has happened, etc. Do you experience that at all? 8th IP: Logged |

Gives deep-rooted sorrow; but,not as if they r unable to be happy,ever,it's like they have seen/experienced a lot early on; specific burden that shapes their emotional nature; issues with mother= she is competing with son/daughter; not typical parent/child relationship; mother not nuturing;IP: Logged |

THAT's what happens to my partner! he can "feel it coming" and feel scared, and i'd be like "bah, what nonsense! stop thinking about it and it won't happen! (insensitive Sagittarius trait.  )" and it happens. he's also weather sensitive too. he has heavy headaches when the weather changes for the worse. quote:

I have Gem Sun,Gem Merc and Cancer moon in the 8th house .
I have read and believe from my own experience that the 8th house is the house of repression.
IOW,all the planets will have delayed(if ever ) maturity.
They will be perpetual teen's until something shocks them or propels them to grow up.
The 8th house is the house of "individuation".
This means "Will you be your own person?"
Will your particular planets(personal qualities) mature so you can be and express YOU not a mindless sheep 
For me,this is true of my 8th house planets.
My current goal is to forge my way to be me,an individual who has her own hand print,imprint.
If it does not kill me, something special will result ------------------

Since the 8th house is Scorpio, you can see how the great perception would result.
I have always been able to pick up people's thoughts.
My Sun and Merc trine Neptune in the 12th and sextile Pluto in the 10th.
I used to accept that I would "know" all these bad thoughts that people had.
I was not creeped out by them cuz I figured this was just human.
Later,I shut down cuz I could not handle this side(the Pluto side) of myself or of others.
I became a card board cut out--sweet lol
It does not work cuz Pluto and the 8th house are just as real a slice of life as is the beautiful ,loving mother Cancer,for example.
They all make up the whole.You can't throw out one as "bad".
If you do,you will prolly meet it on the outside.
As you would expect,it will not be pretty ------------------

I don't mean to pick on you (because its very widespread) but I am so sick of the various interpretations in which anyone with an 8th house or Scorpio moon has had a terrible mother. It doesn't resonate with me at all, and its almost like passing the buck.

That definitely sounds like me: being so susceptible to other people's moods can make me a darn kaleidoscope for that....high one moment, and then grumpy the next. I wondered if I was the only one with such a cerebral moon in an emotional house with these problems, but I'm glad to know I'm not alone. It defintely doesn't feel like a typical Virgo Moon. Its more volatile, and yes....empathic. (I also have a Cancer and 12th house Stellium though) IP: Logged |

Actually,it isn't widespread... There is that adulation packed with any Scorpio trait... It is weakness of Moon position,happens with Cappy too. Maybe isn't as obvious or freudian.. Eg One can look to own sexuality,and to spot pattern by which it is formed,tracing to mother's sexuality and upbringing.Yes,Ami,suppression to H8  IP: Logged |

Well thats what I meant by "widespread interpretation". Anyways, I guess I cannot speak for everyone else but I have pretty much had the most typical mother-daughter relationship possible. Not perfect, but not as dysfunctional as alot of astrologers would make it to be...based on this placement. IP: Logged |

Atypical doesn't mean dysfuntional,and I go by that; Issues can also relate to the fact that mom/kid r so different,by character that getting along is challenging,or impossible; but,it doesn't change the relation where one is mother and other is child; many people suffer because of atypical relationship,it becomes an issue; IP: Logged |

To this day sometimes I have a hard time separating my emotions from someone else's. Last week, I was taking a class for the 6th time, and it was for the first time a friend of mine attended it. For the first time, I felt sexual attraction for the teacher (he's younger than me), and he's so not my type. I later asked my friend if she did too, and she confirmed. Blah IP: Logged |
