How I avoid drowning in my water moon:1) Clean the house 2) Get rid of junk 3) Take a shower, get dressed nice 4) Read a good book It's usually better to think less...or not even think at all...and do more. Sympathetically, Pisces moon IP: Logged |

i always find in interesting to read a lot of cancer moons stuggle with their moon.reverse to this, i always thought my cancer moon is the part of me I love most, the part of me I take pride in most. Cancer Moon is a strong placement. It is in its Royalty. Any planet in its Royalty works exceptionally well, the best. Moon is Ones insides and so to have a Cancer moon should be quite the blessing. Atleast it has been this way for me. Everybody has different energies to work with and eveybody works on a different flow. Cancer Moon in a nutshell is feelings activated to its highest form. Do you ever sit sometimes and ponder why everybody forgets what they should be doing most? Feeling? Feeling it all out, what were here for...you keep thinking why do others forget? That you are nothing but what is on the inside. Cancer moons can stuggle with this...even think something is wrong or missing with them, only becasue they have been given the gift of never forgetting to feel all around them. Next time you think "why am I like this?" or "why doesnt he/she see/feel what i can so clearly?" dont think, just feel. Your heart will instictively tell you you feel something they are missing. It is not that you lack something, you just feel and see more than they do. This in all reality is your gift, your advantage and even your responsibity. When you will embrace it, open up to it, accept it as you, you will never have felt better. As a Cancer Moon, I internally and readily carry a responsibility to stay true to myself no matter what and help others in not forgetting either. Yes, of course, i say it how it is all the time, exactly how i feel, to which some might think "what an emotional fool, or how irrational" but really this is my pride in myself, how I never let myself down. LOVE and RESPECT begin with loving yourself first, being true to your souL. Once you have this down straight all the things that illude your mind or heart do not matter. The stonger you are in self the more love you can then give. If someone does not understand your way, your love, there is never any need to impose. Just remember one thing though, which you cannot go without, SHARE YOUR LOVE. In the sense that, if someone has done something unloving LET THEM KNOW and move on. If they are meant to understand it, they will. Be true to yourself and your feelings for others. HONESTY might not seem very rational in todays world but it will deff get you to what matters. Other than this one simple thing I wish you the best with your Cancer Moon journey. Embrace the loving side of your Moon Goddess completely... Always stand up for what's in your heart and believe...
------------------ The love you seek, you will find within.

Being honest about how you feel, though, just gets you 'killed' socially. It makes people not like you. It makes people uncomfortable.
And I mean, I'm talking about cases where a person doesn't (or at least tries not to) express herself in a creepy way or inappropriately. No thanks. If it was such a good thing to be so sensitive and feeling and emotional, it wouldn't push people away. I also don't see how you can be kind (I don't want to use the term "loving" because it sounds weird and makes me uncomfortable) towards people who avoid me. The only thing to do is avoid them back because clearly it's what they want you to do. I feel sad, because I actually love what you wrote and wish that it were true in my life, but it has not worked out that way for me.

If being emotional and sensitive were good things, people would like those traits, and they don't. So, again, hard for me to see any worth in a Cancer moon when it gets on my nerves and causes too many problems. I really wish that I had a normal, sane moon that didn't care about anything.

Well, this Cancer Moon thought this was all beautifully expressed, Violet. Thank you. You got me thinking about how better to utilize this side of myself, and to look at ways I wasn't doing that too well, lately. ...I turned a chronic way I'd been responding to a certain relationship completely around in my mind, after realizing what I'd been doing. I feel a peace now that I haven't in a great while...which makes me much better able to express the better side of this moon to others.  "The love you seek, you will find within" ^^This^^ Ahh, but don't I have to keep remembering the truth of this! IP: Logged |

I did think it was beautiful. It just isn't reality for me. I wish it were. This moon has done nothing for me except make me miserable. I'm just a pest, and I'm sure many people in my life would be happy never to see or talk to me again, and it's because of these stupid emotions and this stupid moon placement. It's because I'm moody and intense and feel too much, am too sensitive. Please don't quote. Honestly, I feel very, very moody right now, and really intense. IP: Logged |

Perhaps you aren't truly "sick" of it, just yet. You are still getting something out of remaining the same. That's just how it is. When you are really ready for something else, you'll be open to a different way. Until then...more of the same.  I don't know if this applies to you, and i think I've read you express that you don't quite believe in past lives (was that you?), but for me, feeling I've been male in most of my lifetimes, and preferably so, having such an emotional side has been a long time in adjusting to, in this female lifetime. I used to think I was really "weak" for it. IP: Logged |

I am truly sick of it. I get NOTHING out of being the same. I can't make anything that upsets me stop happening. I try and try and try and nothing works. I don't want things to be this way, but I don't know what to do. Nothing works. IP: Logged |

For sure. ...Though I'd say I DO act on it, in a way. I haven't beaten anyone up (!), but many people in my life would be quite surprised to know that in my intimate relationships I have smashed dishes, and punched holes in doors and kicked holes in walls.

And if they do, so what? **** em. There is nothing WRONG with you. And I think thinking that there is is what's making you care about this so much. And if there is something wrong with you, people who like you will love it anyway  I've had a lot of friends that were silent, mute, you could say. They were anxious, shy, awkward. But i loved them so much. 3 friends i can think of off the top of my head. Reason was our synastry and composite which was the love stellium with lots of pluto and jupiter. People will love you or hate you regardless of what you do, regardes. (Haha that was kind of a tongue twister.) The healthiest way to be is to ACCEPT yourself, warts and all, nervous twitches and all, anxiety and all. I bet you're beautiful and adorable when you look vulnerable and anxious. There are so many people who pretend to be hard and have this front where people end up calling them an "ice queen." Showing anxiety and vulnerability is so opposite of that. You should be proud that youre able to! ------------------ $3.50 ebay compatibility readings | testimonials | Past readings IP: Logged |

Mainly, that am so emotionally intense. I really don't feel like people understand. They just think that I'm being a drama queen or weird or annoying, and don't really understand that I honestly experience things much differently than they do. I do take steps to work on my anxiety, but sometimes, it does get bad. I don't feel like people understand how I perceive situations, and how my anxiety influences how I experience things. Again, I'm just seen as a pest. I really wish that I could talk to people about this, but it isn't their problem and they aren't obligated to understand. And who really has time for that, anyway?

I experience emotions in a more intense way than normal people do. As in, my emotions are heavier, last longer, are deeper, and are more easily triggered than those of normal people. Normal people don't get as anxious as I do, or as depressed, or feel things so powerfully (e.g., a fight with a friend) like I do. Things that might mildly upset normal people would be very intense and upsetting for me--basically, I take things harder than normal people do. IP: Logged |

It's also super-hard for me to recover from conflicts, and for me to feel secure. I'm thinking about it, and honestly, I don't really know how to feel secure with people. I can sometimes get to that point, but once the security has been broken, I don't know that I can ever get it back. It's never the same as it was. I'm almost always afraid of being asked to leave wherever I am. IP: Logged |

Aww, RegardesPlatero, I hate to hear someone saying things like that. Mostly because I know exactly how you feel in many ways. I'm a fellow Water Moon and life isn't so easy for us sometimes because how deeply we feel and are affected by things.I think a lot of what you're feeling is a matter of perspective. Don't let people's opinions define you. Easier said than done, I know, cause we all do care to some degree what people think. But, understand that we're all socialized into thinking certain behaviors/personality traits/reactions are "normal" and "abnormal". This usually includes emotional intensity, which is a bit threatening or unsettling to some, since we're taught to be reasonable, to lighten up, to have fun, etc. But it doesn't mean you're psycho or a drama queen or whatever else you may be called. People's reactions to you say way more about themselves than you. So that just means that some people just can't process your way of being, which can be lonely and frustrating, but it's NOT the end of the world. And sure, there are some downsides to all that emotion: the moodiness, being easily hurt, etc. But, there are positive aspects, too. You experience life in a rich, profound, and beautiful way that many others couldn't even comprehend or tap into. I've also read studies that emotional intensity is linked to giftedness and high intelligence. The more complex your mind is, the more complex your emotional nature is, because they are two connected entities, despite what we are often taught. So you're probably very smart, perceptive, and insightful. Also, all that feeling gives you a compassion and empathy for others that can make you a truly invaluable friend and partner. And you're not alone. You're not the only person who experiences life that way or feels so misunderstood or outcasted. It doesn't make you a freak. It makes you special so celebrate it. Hope that helps. ------------------ Check out My Astrology Blog: http://astroarena12.blogspot.com IP: Logged |

I have a very strong 2nd house Cancer moon. I feel when I need to feel. That shell of mine is a pain in the butt through, but it serves a valuable purpose. I like to draw into my Sun in Aries energies. Six years ago I took up singing karaoke and 5 years ago singing at jams. It is always good to find that outlet to help express feelings that seem to get bottled up and cause anxiety. Today, I'm heading Down to the park and sit by the river to cleanse my energy....... My 10 year old has 4 Cancer Planets - Moon, Venus, Mars & Jupiter........I am working on helping her learn to manage herself in the emotions dept. IP: Logged |

its not about getting sick of being the same. obviously, if you are complaining so much about it you are at your wits' end. I feel your pain and am send lots of hugs your way.
