Your Moon sign isn't just your emotional self; it's how you nurture yourself and how you feel nurtured by others.

My Moon is in the sign of Aquarius, and it just so happens that, regardless of what's happening in my life, as long as I know the core truths of the matter, I will feel emotionally well. When people are completely honest and transparent with me, it really helps me out. Another thing is, I need to be able to be myself completely, however weird it is, then I'm comfortable. Having my natural behaviours stifled makes me want to run. Being judged or misrepresented bothers me as well.

My son has a Gemini Moon and some things that calm him or make him happy are speaking with him, lots of communication and him having a space to speak and be heard. This does make perfect sense.

As a Scorpio moon, I don't know if I ever truly feel nurtured. There are times I feel good or neutral, but never completely nurtured. I consider it being dormant.

First is the worst one, the only one I really want, and the only thing I csnt have because its going to remove me from being alive. That is alcohol. The problem is it worked so well and my tolerance got so high that my organs cant handle it anymore.

Second would be coming home from work covered in sweat and dust then taking a shower and spending the rest of the day alone in my huge comfortable bed. Its very important my body feels tired and sore in contrast to the comfort of my home and bed.

Next would be sex. Not just orgasm, but multiple or riding on the edge as long as possible. I like the act more then the release.

Last would be sleep. It seems that dreaming is the only drug like thing I can safety enjoy with no consequences. My dreams are so vivid and lucid at this point, especially without drinking I can remember about 5-10 individual dreams a night and sometimes wake up seeing closed eye visuals for a few minutes like I took acid or shrooms.

gemini moon in 11th house and i relate to what you said about aqua moons as well as gemini . i know some people derive comfort from being coddled and smothered with affection and even pitied (like, other people feeling sorry for them and stuff. especially water energies. ) but i don’t. i feel a tad bit annoyed when i’m coddled. don’t get me wrong, i do appreciate it when people offer me comforting words and stuff but deep down, i don’t need comfort, i need strategies and solutions. my gemini/aqua mind is always looking for strategies and solutions, not pity or nurturing.

cuz i’ve always gotten myself out of tough situations, hardships using my brain mostly (strategizing, finding solutions) so pity is of no use to me.

there’s a leo sun/capricorn moon in my life who gives me harsh words at times that always lead to me improving and doing better so i really appreciate him. he doesn’t coddle me but believes in me. he gives realistic, practical advice. no coddling, over the top nurturing or pity. and i love it.

also i think being able to self-soothe helps a lot. i’ve always sorta looked to myself for comfort rather than outside of myself since i know myself better than anyone.

i like helping other people find solutions and strategies too. brainstorming with them.

Moon in Gemini

I don't know nothing about nurturing as I don't give that and no one give it to me. My moon sign knows no nurturing. I know nothing about it. If by nurturing you mean comfort you (hey like I said I don't know what that is so don't laugh or make fun of me) then I don't want nor do i need that from nobody. Somehow I feel like I can nurture myself whatever that mean.

You sound very much like my son. He's not like me at all and doesn't like his hugs too much. When he wants a hug it's pretty much the highlight of my whole year. Mind you, his Cap Sun and Mars are opposite my Cancer Sun and Mars. How about yourself, do you have much in the way of Capricorn/ Aquarius placements elsewhere? It's funny how we identify with certain things about a placement but not others due to whatever's happening in the rest of our chart isn't it.

Thank you so much You have helped me find all the skeletons.

My moon sign is in cancer. I feel nurtured when there is no mystery.


What I was meant to say was the following: we are always disregarded in all opinions and reasoning, us 12th housers. It's a very mysterious house indeed. I wish you well, and I hope that you find all of the skeletons you deserve to find and uncover all of those stones. The Moon is also the mother.

Sag moon in 4th. words of affirmation and physical touch

my sag moon is defective, I don't need to go anywhere or expend much energy of any sort w my man to fall in love

if you're sick I dote on you, its an erotic thing for me, if I'm sick and you refuse all contact for weeks (#sassy-assed scorpio moon) and frown in my face, chasing me down with lysol, I will never love you

my Libra ex has 8th house moon but its Cancer and when I was sick he kissed me and held me close, that's why I just sent him $ 2.6k (over the last 2 weeks) despite him telling me I might as well off myself for not being militant left wing

like just be nice, I'm super sensitive, but especially at my most vulnerable which commonly happens during cuffing season. are you serious. nurse play gonna make me diamonds. shunning me like vermin when I'm sick gonna make me fuck your brother.

i like hugs 🙂 i just don’t like being smothered for too long cuz i wanna get up and do stuff 😅. i think it’s a gemini thing. like, i used to randomly hug my gemini brothers just to get on their nerves 😂 (i have two younger gemini brothers. one biological, one half brother) and they’ll both try to wiggle out of the hug after a while 😂 gemini energy wants to go and do things instead of being stuck in one spot lol 😂 but these same dudes still call me often to rant 😂 they just hate being smothered in a physical way

sags surprisingly will stay pretty still when you hug them (married to one too). you would think sagittarius would bolt and be like “nah, that’s enough” just like gemini. gemini rarely stays still for long 😂

aqua moon and gemini moon probably share a mutual love for freedom (and being quirky/playful lol) and having long discussions about pretty much anything under the sun.

aqua moon and gemini moon both love logic, common sense, and reality-based facts so problems will get smoothed out/solved faster between them.

you and your son will probably be best friends when he gets older, if you guys aren’t best friends already lol 🙂

p.s.-i don’t have any capricorn or aqua placements besides my north node in cap, saturn in aqua and moon/mars in 11th.

Tick to all of this. 🙂

"you and your son will probably be best friends when he gets older, if you guys aren’t best friends already lol"

We are. We both know when to leave each other alone and when we can bother one another. He's logical like me and full of interesting facts. There's a story behind everything.

also i think your son’s cap sun and mars may have something to do with him not being too overly affectionate. cap energy is oftentimes independent and self sufficient (cap mars is self reliant. i know a few dudes with this placement) so he’ll most likely try to do things on his own first before asking you for help etc


You may be right. I stopped dating a man once because he wasn't affectionate and he had Mars in Cap. He was very strong though.

How I feel nurtured by others? When I am left alone to do what I want. I appreciate the verbal support and validation, but I want to achieve on my own. The older I get the more I have become more open to asking for help and accepting it without feeling unworthy and/or guilty. I am blessed to have so many people in my life who are willing to do so.

I nurture myself by slowing down and taking time to pour back into myself. Trying to establish stability and routine (that is the cap parts of me) and having regular physical activity be it long swims or ripping out carpet (super satisfying).

@serenidad very true. Everybody prematurely judges me, unfortunately. I just don't feel the need to explain myself or why I'm a certain way until it becomes a problem (it does) and then comes the passionate monologue on who I am and why I am certain ways. It's often during a Full Moon. No one ever understands me.


well you know what they say about people who write you off without knowing all the facts. “Anybody who easily believes lies about you without hearing your side of the story was already looking for a way to be against you” 🤷‍♂️

so don’t worry about ‘em. 🙂

Somehow I feel like I can nurture myself whatever that mean.

The thing is, sometimes what makes you feel replenished emotionally is probably when you are intellectually stimulated. Probably this is why he likes to be watching bunch of talks in socmed, I could imagine he would question, argue, and finally if he thinks he feels those talks ring true to his life, he would finally showed some of those socmed posts.

While me, as a cancer moon is more likely, in my own defense, arguing those posts if the situations and conditions don't pass through ours like, thinking how does that relate to us? That kind of protection mode to prevent those posts to incept his idea about me as his woman. Like, those red pillers men are essentially cowards and then the arguments begin.

I think that is what stimulates you as a gemini moon, am I not correct?

Incorrect, actually lol! I'm not that type to watch a bunch of talks and post about it. What really stimulate me is watching actions. Any kind of actions like fights and wild hot sexy kink and dom fetish actions. If we talking nurturing here I'll say that what nurtures my moon sign.

Yes, I understand that. But you see, the power of touch can help you ease your solution-oriented mind. I also felt being "rejected" by a gemini moon man whenever I felt like cuddling with him seemingly stone cold with my gentle cuddly gestures and when I as a cancer moon was not welcomed like that, I paid no mind to it but I just thought (libra venus stroke again now) that it wouldn't do much to grow closeness in our relationship and when you don't feel close, it is likely you would feel less in tune with other person's needs, you see..
click to expand



i’m so sorry that your gemini moon partner was cold towards you.

you’re right about the importance of putting solutions aside even for just a brief moment in order to just be present with the other person.

it takes conscious effort for a gemini moon to quiet their minds and just be still in the moment.

it’s hard for us to not think and just “feel”.

i’m working on it though. i’ve been guilty of mimicking emotions on the surface but not actually feeling it. like, if someone comes to me crying, i‘ll be like “what’s wrong? what happened?” (like, show empathy) and listen to the reason why they’re sad but my mind is still thinking “ok, how can i get this person to stop crying and put them out of their misery or how can i try to talk them out of feeling sad or try to help them find a solution.”

but i’m realizing these days that, maybe they don’t need to stop crying just cuz i want them to. maybe i should just let them be sad and sit with them instead of trying to brainstorm solutions or cheer them up prematurely before they’re even ready.

and i think you being a cancer moon, it’s important for you to fully feel your emotions and not have someone try to talk you out of feeling something.

and your libra venus requires harmony, balance and cooperation , a sense of “we’re in this together” a sense of togetherness in order to feel safe in a relationship.
