I can only speak for myself, but if I'm truly overwhelmed and still within my control, I will just straight up suppress my emotions or shut down.

That's not to say I can't have those difficult conversations. Best way I can explain it, is being selective. If the issue needs to be addressed at that time, I will talk about things, whist trying to hold it together. I fair better when talking about things calmly and rationally, emotions tend to cloud the bigger picture.
What If it's a positive conversation where someone is expressing their love for you? Would it make you uncomfortable?

Depends on how I feel about said person. Lets say, I love this person back, if I were to express how I feel in return I'd get overwhelmed emotionally but, I'd still get the words out while trying to hold back the tears, along with bouncing back and forth between holding and avoiding eye contact.

Wow that made me laugh haha sounds just like how my bf reacts when I actually express how I feel about him 😆

I just noticed that a lot of Virgo moons I know get weirded out (maybe that's not the best term) or just don't know how to react when someone shows them affection. They'll like what was said to them, but it's like they just freeze and are scared to express the same feelings in return.

Very difficult placement

I have a few friends with this and it leaves my Taurus moon cold


I'm sorry Star 🤗


Aww bless you (((Sweets))).....I am so warm so it feels kind of weird to me

One thing I struggle with is, coldness


A common complaint I've had sadly. Not expressive enough, I suppose and difficult to read. The worse part is that my form of expression doesn't measure up to the expectations of others and they a left feeling like they don't matter, when nothing can be further from the truth.

That must be very difficult for you too. 😢

This is how I feel with my bf often times ? But I mean, I'm pretty cold myself so it's probably difficult for him to deal with me too lol

One thing I have noticed with the men is that they'd rather work through difficult times themselves than talk about it. Being there and helping them in practical ways seems to help my fiancé feel relieved more than forcing him to talk about something when he's not ready to/doesn't feel like talking about it in that particular moment.

Only "cold" Virgo moon I know (and I'm surrounded by them) is my Taurus sun/Virgo moon brother. But he's mildly autistic so that's probably why.


Wow you just totally described my bf. He's a Taurus sun/Virgo moon too and he's colder than the other Virgo moons I know (and I know A LOT)

What's your fiancé's sun?

It depends on whose emotions we are handling.

Personally, my emotions are pretty well compartmentalized (at least outwardly) so I come across as extremely stable and sometimes cold. Those who know me realize I'm not cold at all, but very few people have seen me upset. Even fewer people have ever seen me sad. I find that emotions cloud one's ability to think, so I control my emotions so that I can find solutions instead of focusing on problems.

I have no problem with people who express emotion. If someone is close to me I have no problem with affection or public displays. The closer a person is to me the more affectionate I am back. However if I don't feel close (or trust) to that person, I can be very emotionally reserved (or "cold"). I choose to hold my emotions in check until I'm comfortable with people.

I'm very careful about using the word "love" since I take word seriously. However if I do love someone, I have no problems saying it.I've been told that while I come off as genuine, my emotions can be very difficult to read. Those closest to me understand my "stoicism" belies my warmer nature.

If a conversation gets too emotional, that it depends on if it's my own situation. If it's not, I can handle it just fine. The other person is bawling his/her eyes out but I'm cooler than a cucumber. That's why I make a good Lifeline volunteer.

But you should've been there in February earlier this year when my boy forced the big confession out of me. Total blubbering mess.

As a virgo moon myself, expressing my emotions does not come easy. In hurtful situations, I suppress negative emotions until it's not felt anymore, so it does come across as if I'm cold or unbothered, but it's simply me ignoring those emotions till they somehow go away lol. However, if over time I keep bottling emotions, a rare blow up does occur.

On the other side, I am very loving and sweet towards my family. When it comes to friends and relationships, I have to be 100% that they're feelings toward me are genuine, or that they care as much as I do, for them to see any sort of reciprocation. If I wasn't sure they felt the same way, they'd have no idea about my feelings lol.

I do find that virgo moons shut down during emotional conversations. It just takes us time because there's a need to process emotions to logic.

I don't know if this is a Virgo moon thing or a "Me" thing but being around deeply emotional people feels heavy and suffocating, very draining and overwhelming. Operating from a place of thinking and processing through thought, I recognize my

struggle with emotions/ emotional people, preferring conversations that (a) have a point and (b) are not weighed down in emotions.

When emotion's take place over thought, I tune out, it becomes like speaking two totally different languages.

I'm not afraid of emotions completely, when I care I care deeply, however, everything (emotions) has its place and need a healthy balance. For me, this is very, Very important.

You took the words right out of my mouth. I guess it is a Virgo moon thing lol.

What do you do if you partner is having a hard time emotionally, like dealing with a death or illness?

I'm a Virgo Sun and Pisces Moon and I have a really hard time with people who have this placement.

Virgo moons aren't hard to read, or understand. They express in different ways. I am with a Virgo moon, he is very "to himself" but in the right time, right moment when he feels free, loved and nurtured he responds very affectionately.

I think Virgo moons want to make sure that the other person(s) feel the same before they step out to express their feelings, they don't want to be left being the only one.

Do Virgo moons have issues with dealing with too much emotions? Like when a conversation gets too emotional, do you get uncomfortable and try to change the subject to avoid showing your emotions?
I would have to say no for the most part.

I've sat and listened through some very sad, difficult, heart breaking stuff. At times I've left the conversation feeling like the other person felt; tense, sad, distraught, etc.

But I have a negative neptune aspect to my moon. That may be to blame.
