My cousin has Sun, Mercury, Venus and ASC in Cancer and she also has Moon in Pisces with Mars in Libra. She's sensitive and emotional. On social media she is always putting on emotional displays. She told me her birthdate was 6:00am something. So I'm not sure about her placements. But with the emotional displays on Social Media I was thinking she might have Moon in the 10th house. I know for sure her Moon is in Pisces though. What advice could I give her about how to handle her emotions. She's very emotional I told her to meditate or do Yoga.

Hello ChildofVenus

I also have a lot of water in my chart.

I have the sun, the moon, Mercury, Saturn and Pluto in the water.

I would recommend that she cling much to earth.
To work, daily routines, to material things.

I think it is very dangerous to get lost in emotions, and only the material aspects can give safety to people with lots of water.

Meditation is good, and so is yoga.

But also, earth is really needed to stabilize watery emotions. Either by having earthy friends, or adopting earthy philosophies.

Learning to discern between what is worth the energy to express emotion, and what is not. Learning about practicality and finding the balance between the two states.

Example: I am sad about this but I have work to do today, so will this sadness affect my work? What is the level of importance of this feeling versus this responsibility or activity? Which one is worth more? Can I wait to feel this later? Do I HAVE to feel this NOW?

Depending on what the feeling is, what it's about, and such, learning such restraint can take time and effort. When we're very young it is much harder, but patience and practice are best.

Not every emotion or feeling is "gold that should be shared!", no.

unbridled, excessive emotional states are not the end all, be all of depth. Sometimes depth is about being responsible for how we feel and learning to deal with it, which can include choosing when, where and how to feel, and discerning the importance.

Glorifying our own excessive emotionalism will also bring more of the same, and can affect our efforts, long term and such.


There can also be an edge of entitlement and selfishness about a person who's often putting on emotional displays. It depends on how and why of course, but sometimes, it's not actually considerate or respectful, or even sensitive to others. I'm not saying they are this way, but that can be the case for some people.

"dont drown"

On the real though,I have lots of water in my chart as well as fire. So I wake up each day and do self talk to motivate me.

It sounds silly. But it moderates my moods when i talk myself with "You are love","All will be well", "You are favoured" etc.

When someone has mood swings and is that emotional, they are responding more from the outside in than inside out i.e they are responding from the mood of the environment and other people.So they need to be mindful of that by minimizing triggers.

Social media is a mood trigger. They should get off that. News and twitter feeds are mood triggers. Avoid that.
People around them who speak of how bad it is etc. are mood triggers. Limit the interaction with those people.

They should(and I am quoting Abraham Hicks here) become "vibrational snobs" i.e find a good vibrational feeling place and keep up with that momentum.

Then throughout the day, they intentionally pick /choose things that maintain that momentum and minimize those things that interfere with it.

It sounds like hard work on the surface. But through practice, it will start to become 2nd nature. Then they will be quick to notice if and when they feel "off" that momentum. And even start to size out environmental instances or probabilities where there could be a downward spiral.

Reading opinion polls,getting attached to headlines or being an overly dependent lover etc. are all signs that some healthy detachment is needed.

I do this. It works. Keeps your life a little "boring" ofcourse. But it works. And it makes it crystal clear that you are in charge of how you feel. And if you feel "other", than you are also in charge of that.

Working out. I ALWAYS feel better after a workout. It relieves excess energy (which can result in irritation in my case) so well and makes me feel much calmer.

I get what you mean, but it's not how it works with water, Saturn can suck it up, but water will spend much longer in it, complaining about life, if they don't have mechanisms to deal with it that is, and my my it's tough to deal with water moon signs, for this gemini moon, like I move on so rapidly, whereas water spends/and definitely needs to spend days to sulk on it.

i was joking, but really feelings only matter so much and shouldnt control everything and people who have strong ones in particular need to understand that the most

meditation, mindfulness, living in the moment, understanding they're ephemeral etc are all important lessons

my fiancee has a lot of water, and can tend to start dwelling

i try to just cheer her up and offer her a perspective that makes her emotions towards something more positive

a lot of redirection

My sister is a Pisces Moon, and she isn't one for emotional displays, even with Mars squaring that. Her Moon is in the 12th, though.

Art used to be a great outlet for me, and music. I take hot showers to feel better - if I'm feeling sick, or anxious, they help a bit. I once took three showers within a couple of hours, when I couldn't stop crying. Dancing or movement is great, but I also have fire in me.

Funny, I have a Gemini Moon conjunct Venus, but I can really brood. They square Mars in Pisces, and are inconjunct Uranus/ascendant in Scorpio. I can flip between the two, and be too detached at times. Mostly balanced, though.

I distract myself in various ways. Playing a computer game - competitive - can wake me up, when I feel too depressed to get up, or motivate me to do other things. A more relaxing game can cheer me up. I need to listen to more music, as I have recently. I used to listen to it all the time, but I got out of the habit years ago. It has to be lighter, like this though: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rkEkjxX_YrM or this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d48tH0SlSQs - otherwise I can end up sobbing (sad songs). One almost got me earlier on. I read, used to read more than I do, and then I lose myself in TV series that are new to me, or old favourites. When I can get outside, that helps a lot. I got into gardening in 2006, growing my own food.

^ I can brood too when I don't have outlets, Moon is in 8th, yours too right? my my we have lot of gemini moons in 8H in LL, meditation helped a lot tho, in expressing it and also grounding myself in the moment. The people around me usually are cool about expression of it, anger and sh_t like dat, so i usually didn't have to bottle it, and for that I'm very grateful. Mars trine Moon too.

I think Mars conjunct Moon produces warrior-like traits in women, and when it's not directed well, lot of issues can pop up, and for them passive approach doesn't work, it would be like driving a Bugatti like a mini van.

Mine is right at the end of the 7th, conjunct Venus right at the beginning of the 8th, and my South Node.

I'm not that warrior-like unless I have to be. Even with my Aries Sun. Those I know that are Aries, aren't into fighting, but they find a way to get things done. Usually.

lots of good advice here. i would also add that remembering that feelings and intuition do not necessarily = truth or reality. lots of heavy water ppl get stuck in, 'how i feel is how it IS,' when really, they're not mature or stable enough to perceive what's actually going on. misinterpreted intentions, misplaced anger, projecting insecurities, happen all too easily with water types, and they just kind of take it and run with it, straight into the ground. i mean, water...

The term "emotional" is quite broad.
Is she feeling rather sad or sulky most of the time or is she rather angry and irritated? Because that is emotional, too.
I have a lot of water and I don't tend to dwell on sadness but I can be a bit resentful and plan my revenge on people who somehow ****** me off years ago haha. until I have a word with myself and bring my mind back to the now. That really is an annoying trait of mine that I try to let go of and working out physically really does help.

That's a sign of excess energy in the body. Probably caused by her being affected by all types of stuff or if she is like me, she thinks of the wrongdoings that happened to her and plots for revenge . This can create a high degree of irritation. Interestingly I have that mostly before I come on my period, it is definitely hormonally induced. My cousin, who has Moon in Pisces, has that, too.
Anger and Irritation can be good fuel for some sport so Im just repeating myself here but I swear by it. I put on some youtube workout videos and follow them. Makes me feel really great afterwards.
Swimming is also great for someone like her.

Sometimes feelings are the truth. That's where intuition comes in, I've experienced it myself. Once, it hit me like a kick in the solar plexus. I started to cry, and then pulled myself together, thinking I was being silly. A week later, it happened, and I was inconsolable.
