I had the pleasure of a look at four Moon placements yesterday. By the end of the day, I had a possible answer to a question I have been deliberating with my ace researcher S.P. Why does his Scorpio Moon not feel like a Scorpio Moon? For background information, there are three legendary placements in Astrology: Mars in Scorpio in a man,Venus in Gemini in a woman and Scorpio Moon in either sex. If you get into an Astrological community, your calling card will be one of these. At any rate, SP and I have had many conversations about why he does not seem like a Scorpio Moon. I had three separate conversations yesterday in three separate places and have come to a partial answer about SP’s and my question.

One conversation was with a 12th House Moon native. He very sweetly opened up to me. It took such effort of will for him to reveal his feelings.It was akin to running a marathon.I could feel how hard it was for a 12th House moon to reveal his deepest heart to another person. The next conversation was in a study group looking at a chart.One Astrologer said that if a person has the Moon on the angles, the person will be very emotional. The chart under observation had the Moon conjunct the Ascendent. The woman was very very emotional. She took prescription drugs as a way to deal with her severe anxiety. I asked about the Moon conjunct the MC. This placement would make for an emotional person as well. However, the person could easily show her emotions to society.

I took all that and went back to S.P’s moon. Why does a Scorpio Moon not feel like one? The answer is it’s placement in the first house, to a large extent. The first house is what we wear. The first house would be the kind of car you drive. You may drive a BMW er. You may drive a Volvo. You may drive a truck with a gun rack. You may drive an electric car. You may drive a classic car. At any rate,one can see what you drive as the first house reveals who you are. You may like this or not but it is true. What you have in the first house, you wear on your sleeve, like it or not.

Back to S.P’s Scorpio Moon. The Scorpio Moon is notorious for being big and bad. The hallmark trait of the Scorpio Moon is it’s intensity combined with it’s propensity for hiding his emotions. Can we say powder keg? This combo can be scary . The Moon does not like to be in Scorpio as it is the Fall . The Moon does not like to be in a sign that thinks his lover is having an affair when he goes to the corner store. Poor Scorpio Moon. It is the hardest place for the Moon. However, the house placement becomes all important when dealing with such questions as to why an astrological placement does not function as it reputed to do.

Well, the story behind that was that my FB family asked me to do a series on House Rulers. So, I did 23 articles. People are yawning and paying no attention. So, I have to lower myself to a title like "Are you Mooning me?"

I'm assuming it has something to do with the planets and their natural tendancies but that's all I can come up with. Also since we're dicussing the moon here, do the moon cycles really truly have an effect on ppl's emotions? Just curious. Gemini moon here remember? Lol

Venus is exalted in Taurus.The exaltation is second to the Domicle(Home), as to where the planet likes to be. The planet feels warm and happy, in it’s Exaltation. It functions, as it was made to: poetry in motion. I have noticed that people who have Venus in Libra do not like coarse jokes. Venus in Taurus is not quite as sensitive, but he is still, a very refined soul. Venus is the planet of both love and beauty.Someone with Venus in the Domicile or Exaltation is a naturally, refined person. When one knows Astrology well, one can see and feel the refinement in these natives. They have a certain sense of grace which is evident. They have good manners and are sensitive to the feelings of others.

I'm assuming this would b the same as house rulers where each placement is just a puzzle piece and u blend them all?

House rulers are something different.

Researching rulers of houses will help you understand more where I joining the dots so to speak http://www.cafeastrology.com/natal/rulersofhousesinhouses.html http://www.skyviewzone.com/astrology/houserulerships.htm

I think so. Mars is comfortable in scorpio bc it doesn't restrict it like cancer would? Like the shoes aren't too tight lol scorpio traits can b expressed in mars, whereas u said cancer cannot freely express itself there.

mars in scorpio is domicile and in cancer tends to interfere with family matters, whether they like to or not..

Just remember planets are modified by signs, where they express are houses and how they express are *aspects*

sun is domicile Leo and detriment in aquarius, in fall in libra and exalted in Aries.

Asc cannot have detriments...sun in7th would NOT be in fall. IF venus would be in 7th it may assume some energies...
Like venus in 12th would be accidentially dignified.

I would like to talk about this as I have seen it many times but never totally got it.
I will write out some examples.
Mars in cancer in the 10th house
Mars is made a wimpie by cancer
He will express himself in career but will he still have the Mars qualities? I assume so. His aspects are a trine to Saturn which allows him to be practical and disciplined. He has a loose conjunction to the moon(10 degrees) so he can go ballistic every now and then.

I missed being moon in cancer by about half an hour lol. my ascendant is virgo and sun is leo. My MERCURY, however, is in cancer. go figure!

This is a good Moon as you can stand up for what you believe. You are honest, direct and forthright! I just did an article on Aries. I will put it up. You are an Aries, at your deepest heart!

Aries is a truth teller. Libra may demure and tell you that you look great in that bathing suit. Aries will tell you that you look like a whale. After you get angry, you will be glad that someone tells the truth in this day and age of falsities and politically correct words. You will know where you stand with an Aries. This counts for a lot. Aries strength is, also, his weakness. He speaks before he thinks. He jumps before he looks. OOPS. Aries will make many mistakes before he learns. When Aries learns diplomacy, he will have both diplomacy and courage. Then, you have a Ram who has the best of both worlds. If you know Lalalinda of Linda-Goodman.com, she is the quintessential example of both the bravery and the diplomacy to which Aries can attain.
