The conversation yesterday about water signs vs. air/earth signs and emotional processing was extremely helpful in my understanding of where water moons are coming from. Just like air signs keep their emotions private in an effort to keep themselves safe, water moons prefer

Emotions be expressed out in the open as they feel unsafe &/or lied to when they are not. I got so many responses from water moons expressing this dilemma they encounter, as they are aware of how invasive it is, but are unable to trust people without knowing how they’re feeling.

This makes so much sense to me, as an 8H Cancer lilith. I fully understand the comfort knowing exactly what someone else is feeling may give you. I had a hard time with my mother growing up bc she refused to be emotionally open with me, and it made me feel lied to & manipulated.

I think it’s so important for water moons to reflect on this and talk to that inner child to determine what it is you can do to keep yourself safe without having to turn to emotional probing. Perhaps this simply had to be said in order for you to be aware of/change this behavior.

for clarification: I think it’s extremely important for water moons to keep a circle of ppl around them who are naturally openly emotional & expressive. These problems only occur when water moons try to force people who aren’t naturally emotional to open up as a means of control.
