I suppose it depends on the evolution and maturity, but what sign or placements can handle emotional intensity from another person? Like passionate fits of anger that may or may not be directed towards them, crying, you know…emooootions

Well not from any other person, and not every second of every day of crying and moping and mourning, but with my SO, after I am sure that I am safe, meaning that I wouldn't fear for my life in their anger bursts, sure. Bring it on. I can handle at this point a lot of stuff. Not saying it wouldn't throw me off as well. But I wouldn't run away from it. I value raw emotional expression because it's more honest. It's what real intimacy is all about.

Lol I am usually the one doing the emotional outbursts and I have many planets in Cancer in water houses...personally I think it takes an emotional outburster to understand an other one.

Strangely enough the only people that have been able to understand my outbursts have been fire dominant people, but they kind of find it charming and not disturbing the way an air dominant person would.

Definitely water placements, especially Scorpio. I'm putting a lot of emphasis on Scorpio Moon.

However it needs some support. Maybe good aspects to Saturn or a strong Mercury for rationality. The water needs to be "equipped" as to not be sucked into an emotional pitfall as well.

So my final answer would be Scorpio placements or Pluto aspects supported by Saturn and Mercury. Scorpio is renowned for their in-depth understanding of human emotions and psychology as well as intensity. Pluto as well. Mercury is needed for rationality, objectivity and communication and Saturn is needed for endurance.

Neptune may work well but I've never had the experience. Neptune aspects can create compassion but the vice they carry is delusion and in the worst cases a weak-will. They may not be the best to "handle" the emotional outbursts even if they understand and sympathize.

Earth placements are the opposite. They may tolerate wild emotions but in most cases they won't understand. Their approach to things is always practical.

Beware of too much fire or air placements, especially emotional and fickle planets like the Moon or Venus. They usually don't and will not stand emotional displays let alone outbursts. Strong connections to Mars may make a person too egocentric and easily annoyed to deal with other's issues. A strong Uranus may not have the staying power.

Scorpio is the obvious answer. But I also found that Scorpio needs to have a strong position in the chart. If it's just a single placement and the rest of the chart is different, things might be different.

Scorpio ppl I know who not only can endure intensity but seem to enjoy it. Funny thing is that only one of them is super emotional herself, others seem to be calmer. Not the Earth kind of calm, just... more in control, I guess.

Scorpio Sun *and* Moon (outburster)

Scorpio Sun & Mercury & Pluto, Sun conjunct Pluto, Gemini Moon trine Mercury

Scorpio Sun, Gemini Moon, Sag Mars

Scorpio Sun, Aries Moon, Venus conjunct Jupiter (this aspect seems to give a lot of emotional balance for some reason)

also met those ppl

Sag Sun, Scorpio Venus, Venus trine Saturn and Venus trine Moon

Aries Sun, Aries Mars, Scorpio Moon super outburster himself but accepted it easily in others too

Pisces placements, too, but I haven't met many of those. Cancer ppl seem to be kinda disturbed if emotions are angry or strong, but they can take a lot of crying into their shoulder.

So I think we can all agree Scorpios can be relied upon! True. My Scorpio friend and my Taurus friend with Mercury conj. Pluto happened to have been the only people who've seen me cry and be irrational. I'm surprised nobody has said Leo, though. They seem pretty open to emotions albeit they're more analytical than "strong."

Aries Moon/VBML/Venus/Mercury in the 8th house here... Intensity? You mean breakfast? Yes, bring it all to me, I shall embrace them all, reveal it all to me!

I'm pretty tolerant of intense emotions, thought it depends on the nature of the emotions as well as the person. A man with anger bursts is certainly not someone I'd stick around with as it's too scary. Someone with overly negative or psycho emotions will also not find me around.

Moon/Pluto can handle it very well IME. Both of my parents have it, they could handle it pretty well when I used to throw temper tantrums. One of my friends can also handle it quite well. All of them are Virgo Moons with Moon/Pluto.

I agree with this here. In my younger years I was not as welcoming as I am now with other people's emotions. Though I have a fire ruled chart, back then I was feeling and living like a Capricorn and worshiped all things Cap. I used to have an Aries Sun, Pisces Moon, Pisces Mercury friend that either threw tantrums or cried constantly. Emotionally volatile to say the least. I did not like it. :/ During those times nobody would see me cry, I was raised to consider it weakness, so it made me uncomfortable when people cried on me, could you show some self-restraint for goodness's sake!!
Now I don't want to have relationships without a good amount of emotional sharing - if that's missing, don't bother really. But for that to happen, I had to learn to spill too, otherwise I would've been pretty judgmental to be honest.

More than one time I happened to shutdown or freeze when someone explodes in tears. I can't handle that type of emotions; like hey I really feel bad for you but how can I calm you down?! I'm not sure about this, but shall I hold you? I'm not good at this, oh god, please make this end. I blame it on Saturn/Aquarius ASC.
But venting and anger, I handle them very well.

Yes exactly. I feel the same way. I've gotten a little better now… I don't panic and run when someone cries, but rather just let them and listen. But I have a lot of Saturn in my chart too.

Aries! (and scorpio of course) aries isn't easily phased by intensity easily, so i find that they are able to tolerate emotional outbursts very easily, maybe not the best when it comes to dealing with emotional people, so it all depends on the nature of the person having the outburst. Aries are so often very much just "themselves" that its like after the outburst they're sort of like "you done yet?" and then just move onto the next topic, which is great because if you are prone to having emotional outbursts you end up hurting or scaring people but it takes A LOT more than an emotional outburst to hurt or scare an aries away.

I knew a sag sun with a scorpio moon once and they were the best when it came to handling emotional outbursts. their scorpio moon made it easy for them to be unphased by it, but it was their sagittarian optimism or hilarity that was the best at turning what was seemingly an emotional situation before into a comical one that due to their humor seems like no big deal anymore

oh boy! I can definitely relate to this one... I almost felt like I couldn't post this fast enough! I have always been an extremely emotional person, and have found it very difficult to share this side of myself with men, so I really, really appreciate this post!
My ascendant is cancer, so is my moon, my venus, and my saturn, all in cancer. My mars is in pisces! gotta love the water!... So, now I know I gotta find me an aries. I actually just found one, but he also has moon square venus... doesn't work so well with my neediness, but I did really enjoy his fiery intensity, I thought it was cute.
