Yes

If there are external issues that I am thinking about(family issues included)I just become very emotionally run down.

Just the other day my sister was having problems with her car and it was stressing her out.

Subsequently,I also started to feel bad for her and became stressed.I found it hard to detach from her situation

It could be that perhaps I find being "happy" whilst others are in misery,a show of disloyalty?

But at the same time,I think its madness.There are simply many things in life that affect us negatively and are beyond our control.Should that spoil the quality of my life?

Rationally what I say makes sense.But the world of emotions is no rational place.

Sometimes I wish I could stop my empathy for things outside myself from affecting me inside. It makes decision-making extremely difficult.

Yes. I know a Cancer Moon person who unfortunately got laid off and couldn't find at job. They became really withdrawn and wouldn't talk to anyone at all. There was some sort of emotional wall.

Cancer Moon people tend to be moody, so it's a bit of a roller coaster ride. You never know what they mood is going to be like. They can go from being euphoric to being annoyed for no apparent reason. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense to outsiders, but it sure does make sense to them.

I guess that's because they're very in touch with their feelings and have a certain empathy. They get easily affected by circumstances. It's like they absorb these circumstances and transform them into emotions. Even situations where feelings shouldn't be involved, they always find a way to "emotionalize" them. It's draining at times.

Me and this guy I used to see. We both had the tendecy to look for emotional satisfaction somewhere else when we were unstable.

Do you also hang onto emotional hurts? Possibly relive it if you see the person who hurt you?

Eish!! I hear you.

I also find it difficult to approach my sister when she is in her "episodes" and we are not even in a relationship.

She is also a Cancer Moon and I think she feels the same as far as I am concerned too.

I think the challenge with two Cancer Moons is in keeping their emotional waters in check-during very turbulent times.

It can happen that the issues of one directly/indirectly affect the other- by just being in the same room.

Try to take the Sag Moon approach with this.

I was involved with a Sag Moon and whenever I got upset about one thing or another,he would encourage us to talk it out.

Luckily I had Moon/Mercury aspects nataly which made the "wanting to talk about feelings" there naturally.

But what would usually happen is that we would "drift" from that painful subject to many other subjects to a point where I would literally forget.

He was such a good sport that he would also start to talk about his frustrations and then we'd get to the point where we are both laughing at other things.

So my advice would be that, when one of you are feeling really crappy. The other must make up their mind consciously to be the "leveler" and bring things to a more manageable place.

That is not being indifferent. But looking at it from a point of "is this thing really worth me not being close to you? Not ever?"

It takes practice. And you both need to take an oath-before these episodes happen, that you will allow the other to play the other role.

I have always been very afraid to cry and show raw emotions to the Scorpio.I thought that he would see me as "weak".

I've done that and the walls are still standing. For the Cancer Moon man, being vulnerable to other people-especially females- can be tough.

Cancer always acts very macho IME. I hate that about us.

Boy, this was an essay. Sorry!

I have a second house Cancer Moon, however, the family drama and hang ups stem from my Leo south node in the fourth.

Hm it's always interesting to have an outside opinion of cancer moons. I know I'm very hard to deal with at times but u want to work on it so I'm not so offputting when I get moody. My mood changes a lot throughout the day. And sometimes I just expect other people to be able to know what I'm feeling or to automatically understand me. Even though later on I realize that's stupid. And I don't know how to not emotional I've everything. I put up a wall because the only way to not be so emotionally effected by the world is to hide away from it. I would live in a cave if I could. But at the same time I seek emotional thrills. Like movies that make me emotional or relationships that intense in the negative way.

Ugh I used to do this too. Especially when I was married to a sag moon. They are fiery but they don't hold into emotions the way a cancer moon does so when I needed validation and emotional satisfaction he'd dissapear. And I'd have to find it elsewhere. It's like we need so much emotionally but also the depth of the need wears most people out..

If it's opp neptune and uranus, these tendencies might be even more pronounced. They get attached and uncomfortable easily

My oldest son (9) is a Cancer moon and I have not figured out how to love him.

...I mean I love him, but I cant figure out how HE wants to be loved.
My youngest loves to cuddle, be hugged, etc etc at any given time and give it in return.
My oldest, while he wants to be hugged and cuddled he only wants it when he wants it and he feels awkward returning affection.
Hes also very guarded if his feelings have been hurt. He wants to lash out at family and be raging angry, but wont tell you its because someone hurt his feelings at school until you catch him with his guard down.

Ugh, cancer moons, confusing.

people of this placement become unstable in love when they have ongoing family issues?

Afflicted cancer moon can cause disruptive family life , both in childhood and adult.

i.e. try to think cancer moon square by uranus ? The quality of the emotional might not stable.
Or cancer moon square/ oppose by neptune , the neptune might distort the cancer quality .

My friend has Sun square Moon, but my own Moon is well-aspected. No bad aspects at all.

No.

That's because you have a 1st house Moon AND it is in Cancer.
