So Aquarian moon is for me a thing about freedom, not so much about emotional distance. If I had a kid, I would raise it to become independent and a revolutionist. I just cannot conform to all the rules and the school system. I am anti vaxxer and anti-everything those poor kids HAVE to do nowadays, that takes their freedom away. I can see the Orwellian agenda behind everything so no... the kid would have a hard time with such a revolutionist mother...

Don't count yourself out. Circumstances sometimes dictate something else occuring. Sometimes Universal laws are so amazing, one has to be in awe at just observing them at work.

I would look at the progressed Moon also at the time of the birth of the child. As that dictates the mental state of mind we are at & our evolving capabilities as caregivers.

Interestingly,my Sis has natal Moon in Pisces.But she had her progressed Moon in Aqua when she had her son(2018). And she is NOT that involved in his day-day rearing at all.

Even now(prog Moon still in Aqua),she is not " raising" him in the strict sense of the word.His grandmother is.

We certainly didn't expect the pregnancy and then when it came about, it was like a blessing to the my folks- as they really wanted a grandchild. And I nor my Sis who comes just after me, were in a position to have one.

What is noteworthy is how synchronized the events around the birth were. My Mom's progressed Moon(my nephew's grandmother) was in Gemini conjunct my nephew's Moon when he was born.

#sidenote my mother didn't raise me either in the first parts of my life(she has Taurus Moon natally) & when I was born, her Moon had progressed to Pisces.

My grandmother(her mother) is the one who was my Mom.And its considered quite normal in South Africa for kids to be reared by grandparents(Trevor Noah is another example of this).

So when I was born all those years ago Gran's progressed Moon in Aries was conjunct my natal Asc in Aries. Wowza!! So she had energy reserves for an infant at her age.

Another cousin with the Aqua Moon adopted a child (Sandra Bullock did that too and she has Aqua Moon). When I checked her progressions, natal Sun in Taurus and progressed Moon in Sag conj Uranus in Sag.

In life we grow and our wants change. Its natural. Just take a look at your progressions because its likely that if you're feeling "broody",there's a chance that prog Moon in in the 2nd or 4th house OR in the signs Tau/Can -which revolve around setting up a nest etc

Moon in Aqua/Moon in Pisces tend to adopt.With Moon in Aqua(especially) preferring teenagers or those past the diaper phase.Maybe coz they want to be able to converse with the child?

Most air moon parents I would imagine, may prefer to have their kids speak as soon as possible-so as to start "reasoning" & "negotiating" with them lol.

The thought of having a crying infant who can't enunciate scares them. How do I know what she wants? How do I tell when she is hungry or has had enough? What do I do to soothe her when she is upset? etc. it can all be so nerve-wrecking.

But we all have fears about messing up as parents because of our NOW mentality(myself included).And that's okay because we are not the first to have such insecurities.

Nope. Nothing can change my mind. I just don't have the instinctive URGE to nurture. I think I miss mother-genes or something, but when I see woman who really get depressed when they fail in getting a child...I just cannot relate to it. I just feel TRAPPED, and I just KNOW I couldn't sleep anymore. Besides, over forty here, so no children for me. Too old, too exhausting for me. I really need my sleep or else I get really sick. When I have 2 bad nights in a row, something goes wrong in my brain and I feel depressed, as if i'm lovesick. No good for me, it will literally kill me, every broken night.

I also don't want to bring a child in this world if they end up being unhappy. Yeah I can't really see myself living a normal life as a mother.

What makes you think you'd be too detached?

Well Jupiter/Neptune and Uranus are the types who have noble intentions. They are not necessarily saints.But they tend to have an idealistic view of the world.

So those with Sag/Pisces or Aqua influences may not see a diff between their "blood" children and other children(even those of a different race,cultural background etc.).

Their belief being that we are all a part of the human race right? And every child(irrespective of background) needs a loving home.

The actual process of adoption i.e the administration, paperwork involved and the adoptee being reviewed as an eligible candidate however,is Saturn & Mercury.

Anything that slows things down and puts due process and procedure into it, is Mercury/Saturn or Cap/Virgo energy.Especially if those processes are subject to human fallacy,disappointment or rule of law.

I can say I've loved every feline I've ever been blessed to be a mommy to. They are very much loners thus perfect for an Aqua Moon! However I can dote, often do, but more often my head is in the clouds. My sons know me, they purr and greet me etc, we share much affection (it is purrrr-fect) .

Whilst foster care is more Uranus/Neptune.Dodgy adoption processes fall under Neptune/Jupiter and ones that go quickly tend to be influenced by Venus (and in some cases I would reckon Jupiter too).

That's very interesting. Yeah Aquas don't usually like commitment, it feels suffocating to them I believe. I don't feel I have trouble with commitment, but more that I can't be committed because Im always living in my head/fantasy world, and have such a short attention span. Im irresponsible at times and a huge procrastinator lol so really am I good for commitment, Im not very sure.

Hello fellow Aqua moon.
Could it be the house or orb the moon is in? Maybe a less obvious aspect to the moon. Have you looked at your Moon in a Persona study?

I find cat's are rather less clingy than dogs. My moon is in 2nd house. A more personal zone. So when they (kitkats) approach me I'm very receptive, it could also be breed. In my case not so though. I'm sympatico with any felines.

Hi fellow aqua moon! (: 😂
Im not sure.. my moon is 10 degrees Aqua in the 12th house.

Ive looked into Moon in Persona chart but Im not too sure how to read them or what they mean.
In my Moon persona chart my moon is in Pisces there. But not sure what it means or how it affects me.
