How does the Moon in Aquarius influence your behaviour? What are its secrets for your profession and your love life?
We are diving right in but remember accurate astrology requires a look at the whole chart – the moon is only one important part of it.
Personality
In Aquarius, you experience life objectively and in a detached manner. The moon gives us our instinctual nature – Aquarius, being a fixed air sign indicates a need for freedom and fulfilment through feeling to be of service to society or higher purpose. You are capable of being friendly and helpful but without getting entangled emotionally.
The Moon also shows us how we deal with emotions. You remain quite unpredictable emotionally and prefer to keep your distance from whatever emotions might be there. Your independent, distant and detached manner is quite famous and often gets perceived as unemotional. You might express your feelings through humour, or sarcasm.
On the upside you can be friendly and honest. Your wish to make the world better has deep roots. When you feel/think strongly about something or someone you will be loyal to your cause. And you can connect for a long time with people with similar principles to yours. Look to the house your moon is in to get an idea about where this can manifest.
A more difficult side of that is that you tend to try to please everyone. This is of course impossible, sometimes being friendly, loyal and honest is enough.
Heightened stress can make you anxious and nervous, you might get lost in a state of agitation. It will make it difficult for you to translate your ideals to reality. You can counter that with conscious breathing, relaxation and meditation techniques, group sports or activities, incl. Tai chi and chi gong. Or just take the time and space to be alone and busy with your favourite intellectual pursuit.
At Work
Moon in Aquarius, you are not the biggest fan of anything conventional – so this is likely to reflect in the career you choose. Whatever you do, look for something that involves your intelligence, that allows you to think about the greater good or has social utility. This works great for careers in science and technology, aiming to improve the lives of people on a global scale. This uses the intellect to serve the greater purpose you aim for.
Community and humanitarian work could also come in but you could also excel in professions deemed ‘unusual’, such as astrology, alternative therapies or internet based work.
Generally you can apply yourself to a task or a project with dedication but you need to have the flexibility to do it on your own time and your own terms. You might also be quite rigid and fixed in your way of being – so you need your work to adapt to you as it is difficult to do the reverse.
It is better to evade work that involves emotional involvement and compassion, as those are not your strongest side. But you can remain calm under stress, and keep a cool head. Staying detached has its positive sides because it allows you to remain calm in situations that require surgical precision.
This intellectual approach can also serve well for engineering roles, especially those that aim to further develop society in a positive direction.
In Romance
Aquarius Moon, you might not be overly interested in pursuing a relationship. You might prefer being friendly with everyone but choose to avoid intimacy and personal commitment.
If you decide to go for a relationship you will be loyal for a long time, as a fixed sign you prefer stable relationships, that however also need to offer you a fair bit of freedom. Otherwise you might feel that the partner is someone who feels like a messy invader of your privacy.
Speaking about the partner – you need one that is not overly sensitive. Someone who is tolerant and outgoing. You are unique and as such might decide to go for a relationship form that is somehow out of the norm, you might enjoy having an original partner, someone who you perceive is different then the rest. Potentially with intellectual interests or of world views compatible with yours. Someone who has your needs and interests at heart and doesn’t need you to be too lovey-dovey.
You as a partner are stable and persevering. At the same time this might show as being rigid and inflexible. Remember if you are asking for freedom, space and tolerance for your uniqueness from your partner you can at least return the courtesy and accept their quirks.
Another issue is being inconsiderate at times, forgetting to put your partner before the difficulties of life, giving them the cold shoulder or not realising that their needs might be different than yours. Being aloof and distance can alternatively lead to problem avoidance due to the lack of attention to the emotional side of the relationship, this might lead to difficulties in sustaining close emotional relationship
Finding a way to show your love and appreciation for the person beside you is important even in times of struggle. Get original with it, make it real for your partner, even when it is really hard to do so!
However you need your alone time regularly, so if necessary schedule it, it gives you internal strength and calmness. It is a good idea to communicate this need to your partner and explain why this is so important to you.
We hope this has given you some perspective on the qualities of a Aquarius moon. Stay quirky, stay funny and we’ll see you next time.
