Moon conjunct Moon in the 8th house synastry

How would a moon conjunct moon in the 8th house work out? My moon in aries is in the 4th house. His moon in aries is in the 8th. I have this with an old ex from 5 years ago. Our relationship back then was intense and deep. I felt like I just wanted to hold him and protect him. I felt like he was more honest than most people in this world and needed help. It was as if we could merge together physically and it would be transformative, deep, and great for the both of us. It's like we needed to have sex to feel everything we could be together. It scared me because I was afraid he would have too much control over me. And later I learned he didn't want to fall for me just in case I was like all those other women in the past who just used him. After this big fall out, we talked once again, and that connection that we had when we were first intimate together was still there. It was as if all the drama did nothing to separate us emotionally.
I've been seeing him more often recently. And I feel like we both react as if all this time that passed between us didn't change anything.

So what are your experiences or what do you know about it? Do you have any similar stories or synastry aspects?

WoW, that's probably 3 of the most intense aspects one can have in synastry!

Ive had moon conjunct moon with my father and an ex, you will feel each others emotions, you'll just know it. If your moon is in the 4th house and that means his most likely will be in your 4th house. The 4th house is a water house ruled by Cancer (the moon), and it will bring deep emotions and a need to merge your inner identities (which could be symbolized by the home), you may have a hard time staying away from each other and wish to live together. Its a VERY deep placement for intense bonding on deep levels extending into the subconscious, possible feelings of the past resurfacing. If his moon in Aries 8th house, most likely yours will be in the 8th as well. The 8th house is another water house ruled by Scorpio (pluto) and the moon is VERY INTENSE. Its like having a Scorpio moon but 24/7. The houses are like permanent transits. Because your moon falls in this house you will be able to have deep, penetrating insight into him. It can be very invasive for him, especially as your moons are conjunct.. You will psychically understand his fears, shame, humiliation, sexual cravings, issues etc., his 8th house issues basically, and he will be aware of your penetrating insight as it will come out automatically and this may trigger him. Aries moon is very fiery, may not be so comfortable normally but because both your natal moons are in water houses, you both may enjoy the depth of your relationship, though it could potentially have moments of discomfort and embarrassment, sometimes you don't want your paramour to see these things hidden away, and you will both "see" each other. I have both aspects with my Cancer (his moon in my 8th, my moon in my 8th-they are not conjunct though, and my moon in his 4th). They say the water houses are the most bonding of all the houses, very difficult to let go of... possibly karmic.

With the 4th and 8th house, you'll feel the effects of both, Ive noticed in relationships, water houses lose their identity... in other words it becomes difficult to tell the house person from the planet person in terms of effects, they are more mutual, a feeling of boundarylessness.. I hope that makes sense, so it will go back and forth, I think that's why so many explanation on different sites for synastry house placements.
