Be careful now, they're (LL PC-police) going to get you.I lived with a Taurus-Capricorn in a parent-child dynamic. I was going through pMoon in Cancer at th time. This was the first time I recall ever being depressed. Punishments were often made as restrictions: *No food for a month
*No television before 6pm or after 9pm.
*Very top-down governing style. No discussion.
*Very stingy with money. Take away: Be thankful you have a place to sleep & a meal per day. Ask for nothing else. I know many moon in Cancer. However I don't have a firm grasp of how they discipline their children. IP: Logged |

I have a cap moon. When it comes to discipline, I relate more to my 4th house ruler and its aspects. I'm pretty liberal minded (Mercury opposite Uranus), which means I've offend people with more conservative or traditional views. Recently, this has been a point of tension in my life with some of the people around me forcing their opinions that I should have more structured rules and defined consequences, but I'm not comfortable treating ALL my kids like they can be redirected with generic penalties. Now, this doesn't mean I'm out of touch and hold a wildly irresponsible outlook on discipline. I want my kids to be independent, make wise choices, and be able to deal competently with the consequences of their actions. For me, this means treating each child as an individual and examining each situation in context. The way I see it, life is a series of learning experiences, and as long as my kids are absorbing the lessons and making an effort to modify their behavior, I'm happy. What I want is for them to know a sense of accountability. It's not just about redirecting their behavior, it's about teaching them how to be good people. Obviously, this is what all discipline is meant to accomplish, but it's not what most discipline achieves. There is discipline in its verb form and I believe, when misused, creates people that submit to certain codes of conduct simply because they are afraid of the consequences. Then, there is discipline in its noun form. It is the product of a meaningful value system (moon rules my 2nd house) and a reliable internal compass. Self-control at its best! I don't do the corner (or anything of the like), time outs only when I know they need to get some emotional distance from a situation and it's done in a comfortable space. I don't try to reason with them when they are too upset. Before intervening, I give them time to work out their issues themselves. I let them be kids and try not to criticize their actions or make them feel criticized. -Virgo on the 4th
-Mercury in Gemini, 12th house, trines Mars, opposite Uranus
-Mars in libra at the end of house 4, square my 7th house cap moon
-moon in Capricorn, end of 7th house, loose squares to mars and Saturn, tightly trine Venus. Discipline according to Wikipedia: Discipline is the suppression of base desires, and is usually understood to be synonymous with self-control restraint and control. Discipline is when one uses reason to determine the best course of action regardless of one's desires, which may be the opposite of excited. Virtuous behavior can be described as when one's values are aligned with one's aims: to do what one knows is best and to do it gladly. ^ Those are the results I try to achieve. I think this describes Capricorn well! In retrospect, I guess I do relate to my moon pretty strongly.

@NineWow, that kind of discipline to me is quite harsh. But I do understand the results that it tries to accomplish. Me personally, I can't ever think of not giving someone food for a day, let alone a month. That definitely sounds like my partner when it comes to disciplining the new kitten we just got. He's quite harsh with her. I was just curious if this would be similar to how a Cap moon would discipline a child. He always tells me I'm too soft. @ReachingForTheStars I can tell you're a pretty balanced person for someone with Cap moon. I know way too many people with this placement that aren't evolved enough to understand the fine line between discipline and torture. I guess it's because most of the Cap moons I know barely experienced affection from their mothers, to so it's difficult for them to empathize. IP: Logged |

My Dad is a Cap Moon. Was never really there for us when growing up. And he would be quick to beat us when irritated.I think most Cap Moons don't like kids/ have a formal relationship with their children. But the relationship seems to improve once the kids are of a "mature" age i.e past their teens etc. IP: Logged |

My dad is a Cancer moon. He never disciplined us. Let us run around like feral animals. Emotionally nurturing. Moody and depressing. I didn't have a natural fear of men that many girls grew up having to learn. My sis in law is a Cancer moon. I don't like her but she's a caring and supportive mother. I would guess Cap moons to be more stern. I'm strong Saturn and strict with kids. IP: Logged |
