Emotionally ... yes I do feel deeply, but with maturity I rarely feel out of control as a result of this. In fact, my emotional steadiness is something that people often comment on. Earlier on in life, I did frequently feel overwhelmed by tidal waves of emotion which sent me into depths of despair and left me feeling dysfunctional .... but gradually I have learnt not to let emotions rule me, and have developed a much more philosophical approach to life.

You know, after the first few thousand emotional crash and burns in your life, you start to develop coping skills and learn to recognize thoughts and feelings are transient indicators of the threats/reinforcements to your ego's sense of survival; they are not the real you which is unchanging, inherently peaceful and unaffected by the "things" that happen in life. If you can learn to change your perspective in this way, you will find that most of the time your emotions will have no real power over you, they become tools in your service.

I would not say that I have "mastered" my Scorpio emotions because I still experience deep, intense feelings ... the only difference is that I don't identify who I really am with those feelings.

I like that I can size up people and situations easily but other than that, I hate having the moon in Scorpio. I hate being such an emotional person and having so much water in my chart.

I hate not being able to describe how I feel when I'm upset. Words just will not come out. I hate having trouble getting over things. It's so hard for me to just "get over it". This ruins my whole day.

I run through so many moods a day, people don't know what to expect from me. I wish I could be one of those people that are just happy and chill everyday.

I know how you feel, Pluto touches most planets in my chart. I have an Aries Moon, and I had opened a similar topic a few months ago, and people explained to me that they reason I cant really express my feelings and I keep them all bottled up it's because my Moon is exactly quincunx my Pluto in Scorpio. I went once to a counselor, and I'm going again. It felt quite good talking to him, I felt much better afterwards, you could try that out! Also maybe exercising will help you.

Also reading your threads on LL I feel that many of your concerns about Capricorn sign / ego etc also relate to your Scorpio moon.

I don't like this comment because it's not at all helpful. I don't mind you telling me that I'm going to be a controlling parent but at least shed some light on me with some tips or something to overcome this.
