How do you interpret someone with Moon in Cancer (24") 2nd house with this aspect:

- Opposite Capricorn Pluto (19") 8th house
- Opposite Aquarius Mars (0") 8th house
- Square Taurus Uranus (2") 11th house
- Trine Pisces Neptune (15") 9th house

Will she get affected by the out of sign Opposition and Square aspect from Aqua & Tau to the Cancer moon?

How do you describe her emotions as a whole?

It looks complex for me and am worried I couldn't understand her. Why? Because my 4th house moon conjunct Jupiter (I think this aspect keeps making my emotions in positive state as possible), trine ASC/Saturn/Uranus, sextile Mercury.

I've met Moon/Pluto people sometimes just too extreme in their emotions and I don't really like how quick they go to the extreme which I see it as a negative (maybe because I don't understand as my Moon/Jupiter feels like a happy-go-lucky emotions sometimes), especially the hard aspect. I hope some of your input here can make me understand more about the aspect that I don't have, so I can understand her better in the future.

She is my daughter, which I wish I don't have bad relationship with her just because I fail to understand her emotions. I have Moon square Moon with her Father, out of aspect, but I have Moon square Moon with her in 2"-4", are we safe? Looks scary to me.

The main thing I would say with this combination - Cancer Moon opp Pluto in Capricorn.... is that.... as her mother... you should try to give her respect and trust.

Astrology isn't the be all and end all of everything... and there are always many aspects going on in any natal chart and synastry chart.... but purely based on this aspect.... if this was a friend of mine and she asked me what I thought.... my first impression would be that her mom can be a bit smothering and controlling.

That doesn't mean you actually -are-... or that you -will be- this way... because like I said... it's just *one* aspect... and we all have free will...

But just going by this aspect - if you want to have a positive relationship with her.. I think it's really important to try not to be over-protective. Let her know you are there for her if she needs you... but don't get too involved to a point where she feels maybe smothered or... like you just don't trust her.

You might have some fears and... things going on because of your own past experiences... and you might really *strongly* want to protect her from making similar mistakes in life.. and going through negative experiences.
I think all parents can feel this way... But with this Pluto aspect - it could be a bit more intense with you than the average parent.

If you do feel this way ^ try to have more faith in her own intelligence, maturity and ability to make her decisions for herself. We all make mistakes... and we all get hurt sometimes in life. You can't 100% protect someone from that.
But she will be OK!

Hope this helped!

Thank you @Odette,

It's true that Astrology isn't the be all and end all of everything, but sure it gives some information to understand.

For me, I'm not entirely sure Moon is all about the Mother, what I am sure is the sign of Moon can gives a clue to what type of Mother we have and the whole aspect is what we actually feel inside. At least, that's what I feel about my own Moon, my Moon/Jupiter (and other aspect) doesn't necessarily describe my Mom at all, but my Moon sign is pretty much describe her.

I also don't think I will be a smothered and a controlling Mother as I am pretty much highly independent and value freedom, what I actually fear is I am too detached to her as she has Moon in Cancer.

Don't worry about that. I have a Cancer moon myself with similar aspects like your daughter (square Pluto, trine and contraparallel Uranus, trine Mars and so on) and my mother has never been smothering at all. She has always allowed us to breathe and gave us freedom and I needed that. She was never very emotional or showed too much affection either. you could interpret that as being "detached" but that never bothered me (there were other things that did bother me but that is another topic). I actually hate it when people come too close and don't respect my personal space. I have another friend who has a Cancer moon who is very similar. Cancer moon doesn't mean that we crave closeness. It means we feel deeply (especially with that Pluto aspect) and we retreat into our shell sometimes when the outer world becomes too much. Many Cancer moons are introverted and need their peace and space.

Moon in Cancer wants to care and wants to be cared for. They love feeling a part of a community/family/ sisterhood/brotherhood etc.

There is an emotional attachment to bonds and an expectation that others will"mother" them (even the male friends) if they actually care for them. This especially when Moon is in 2nd/4th house.

Cancer Moons tend to intuitively initiate change in and around their environment i.e a moving around of furniture, moving homes, remodelling etc.

Moon-Uranus square supports these changes and feeds into that.Are you the type to change things around in the home or remodell a lot. Perhaps even move?

This early life experience fosters in them that change is good/necessary.And this change(Moon) becomes a part of their security base and value system (2nd).

As they age, they will initiate change and may not be easily attached to things.Infact, they will insist on emotional freedom that change brings.

Pluto-Moon suggests extremes.Extreme flux or change(Pluto) in the area of emotional security(Moon).

From a fundamental level, this could bring about emotional up/downs or an extreme reactions in emotions.

So when the native is upset, they go for extreme measures because it feels like a CATASTROPHE.

There is a hypersensitivity to early conditioning -for good or ill. They must react with ABSOLUTE action to remedy a discomfort. Even if it's overkill.

I think its important to look at these two aspects to the Moon i.e Pluto-Moon and Uranus-Moon.They overlap in many ways. Add to that the opposition to Mars? Wow!!!

Mars-Moon aspects points to frustration and hot emotions. Your child has a 3fold pattern here that suggests a potentially rowdy and erratic emotional disposition.

Look at this;

Mars traditionally rules Aries/Sco. It aspects the Moon
Pluto is modern ruler of Sco. It aspects the Moon.
Uran(finds its exaltation in Scorpio)It aspects the Moon

The opp and square of Mars comes from the 8th (traditionally ruled by Mars).

The square to Ura comes from the 11th. Trad ruled by Ura.

The early home life is sensitive to influence & thus the emotional mind.Moon gets its accidental exaltation by house(2nd).And is very strong in Cancer.

Thanks @kani,

My brother has Moon square Pluto too and my sister has Moon conjunct Pluto. Moments ago we had some super intense situation and I watched how extreme both of their emotions are, also how it can be real bad. I was shocked, speechless. It did gives me a headache and chose to leave because the energy feels darker than before, I wasn't comfortable with it. 'Till this day it doesn't go away as both do not move on and let go that easily as I am. Funnily enough, they are way more religious than me, but it seems they don't forget and forgive easily. Love and hate to the extreme, but it's way more easily to hate.

Watching that experience worry me a lot as my daughter has the opposition. I want to understand first so I can find a way to teach my daughter to realize and to control her own emotions early, so she can have a knowledge to manage and to protect herself growing up and not go to extreme about anything.

Your input is quite understandable, as my 4th house moon is quite the same, I also need my own space and peace.

I like home decorating. So, yes, I'm quite a changeable in home decoration, frequently do so. Not necessarily moving around, but I did moving around before marriage due to some practical reasons, now I am settled.

My Mother is the same, she changes things around at home and remodeling often. I guess I get passed down from her.

See?

Isn't she will have bad temper too?

Her father (my husband) has Cap Moon opposite Cancer Mars, oh boy, it was hardly to have a peace at home until he learned it the hard way. Now, he seems trying to control his touchiness and moodiness and I let him having his alone time a lot more and do what he likes to do to keep us sane at home.

I can relate to what you say about your brother. I can get irritated and angry as well and in the past it was near to impossible to control this. But in true Pluto fashion I went through a painful but necessariy death and rebirth phase and I have become much more balanced. People with Moon Pluto hard aspects feel really deeply and usually did go through some heavy trauma. I'm not saying this is going to happen with your daughter though, but it was true for me. The most important thing like I said is the peace and quiet these types of people need. I absolute enjoy silence and space. Not just to recalibrate...

I think your hubby may hv passed this touchiness and/or moodiness through to her.

He could either be the type who os highly irritable.Or be the type who is so sensitized to discord,she does all she can to keep the atmosphere tense.

This is the child who may either get into trouble and push boundaries.Or be the type who does all good for fear of being chastised or bearing the brunt of aggression being turned towards them.

The Moon-Uranus certainly explains the tension in her chart. And the Moon-Pluto is th conditioning that she has to learn to live (Moon) with a volcano(Pluto).

In future, she may be drawn to someone who replicates this energy.Its what usually happens as our early environment becomes a reference for our "safety" net-no matter how unconventional.
