Moon in Aquarius

Always when I see a chart in which the Moon is positioned in Aquarius, a sky blue color flashes before my eyes. For the Moon in Aquarius are the heights of the soul. If the Moon in Cancer would be the soul, ready to give, care, be joyous, then the Moon in Aquarius is the soul ready and able to ascend and be not only the soul of one person but the soul of the whole world. And I can clearly say that these are true humanitarians who would gladly, if they only could, put their arms around all humanity, put all people under the same roof – heveanly unite them and give absolutely everyone the same amount of love, tenderness, joy. This is therefore the principle of social justice that is unfortunately hard to achieve.
That is why the greatest joy for someone with the Moon thus positioned is when destiny smiles at him and he actually becomes a scientist researching a cure for some vicious disease that will save millions, or the one that will by working in human rights (which they are always interested in no matter what ocupation they are in) struggle for peace in war zones or feed the hungry as an activist of some humanitarian organization. He will also be satisfied as an artist who creates work that burns with truth, who without mincing words, without shame or compromise of any kind is burning with the desire to open the eyes of the world with his novel or movie. He will also be satisfied as a physician who will be the best in his field, for his secret is that he sees a person in every one of his patients. So he speaks, listens to him, talks to him so there is an incredibly long line in front of his office. He will consciously self sacrifice for some idea whose higher purpose he sees. But, for instance, what kind of a salesman would he be? A bad one, for his nature is to give away not to sell. Politician? People would love him, but his fame would be short lived for he is too full of ideas, too much on the side of the people. In my practice, I have often a time seen him in famous people. Because, on its own, the Moon will always represent fame, and positioned in Aquarius means that it is easy to attain it, for Aquarius is the trend of the times, so the person is in no way extraordinary, but is instead the mirror of what is most wanted, listened to and loved, which is why in our country many low quality singers, and other famous people who are not exactly supposed to be role models have Moon in Aquarius that makes them the reflection of the cultural and every other level of the country we live in.
People with Moon in Aquarius, their nearest ones will often characterize as being nervous and tense, being hard to talk to, while someone who is new in their life, some total stranger, will be fascinated by the energy that their every action, move and sentence emits. So why is it then that they are readier to sacrifice for total strangers than they are for their nearest ones? Because only a victim that is absolutely without a hidden agenda is their imperative. In the moment when they have to stand up and defend someone in the street, in the post office or wherever they may find themselves, when someone needs skin, blood, money – they jump right in – especially if the victim is a genius. This can be a problem, and often times it is, especially when they have a family of their own. They find it hard to separate from the primary family, but in their own families, especially if they are functional, it happens that they put the interests of some completely ephemeral persons ahead of their own interests, or their partners or their childrens. Guided by a cosmopolitan soul and a sense of innate humanity, they waste no time on compassion for those who are fine.
This is why they sometimes seem arogant and cold, putting everyone in his place, guided by norms known only to them for which they utterly believe to be the only correct ones. This is where stubborness comes from, sometimes even frenzy for they are quite uncontrollable when they are active. Apart from frequently being gifted for some sort of art, profession, they empathise with geniuses whose knowledge or work they respect. Nevertheless it is impossible not to love them, which is the reason they have lots of friends. People simply feel good around them.
Because they have a big soul it is hard for them to settle down in one place. That is why they are frequently homeless, they live in rented apartments without ambition to at any cost secure something since a kind of security here lies not in owning real estate, but not owning it which leaves the door open for them to easily move on. Lots of moving, sometimes even loss of real estate, often in charts this represents property that is nationalized which is the reason that this person has no aspirations for property, feeling it would be a burden to him.
They are characterized by flawless intuition, they are romantic in their faith in destiny and the unknown, which obsseses them.
And naturally, as the Moon in Capricorn would give the same as the Moon aspected with Saturn, all I have said about the Moon in Aquarius pertains to the Moon in any kind of aspect with Uranus.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now, when in its monthly cycle the Moon is going through the sign of Aquarius, in which it will, as in all other signs, spend two to three days, it is good not even to try to organise yourself. Open up to your instincts and follow them. It is certain that there will be surprises and plan changes, unexpected situations. That is usually when the atmospheric pressure is somewhat lower (regularly the ailment of all who have Moon in Aquarius in their charts), so headaches are possible, hard days for those with a heart condition etc… If you spend these days at home, expect sudden, maybe unannounced, guests. Sleep will be irregular, do not try to rest during the day for as you slowly fall asleep, the phone will ring, or the neigbour will start to drill. Solution: turn the phone off, but don’t be surprised if your absolute weariness passes completely, and you jump out of bed and start working. This is a good time to visit theatres, cinemas, I have noticed that this is what usually happens in the city. For example, opening of Movie Festival (FEST – festival in Serbia) coincided this year with the Moon in Aquarius. All in all this is a time when your mind, soul and imagination work as never before so use it to make your ideas public. Be truthful, open, do not get a nervous breakdown because of a short circuit, absence of a phase, trouble with TV transmission, only if in your natal chart you do not have Moon in Aquarius, prepare for being asked for loans. Maybe you will instinctively, on the wings of the power of magnanimity to the world, say yes withouth checking your finances.

Aquarius is an AWFUL sign for the Moon. It’s cold, barren and ruled by Saturn and Uranus. Aquarius makes the Moon feel alone and lonely and possibly subjects it to chaos.
Aquarius is the Moon’s sign of death (8th house) — figuratively: Death of feeling.

Woah, mike do you have aquarius moon yourself or why are you being so harsh and cold against people with aquarius moon? i personally have this in my natal chart and i dont think i am a cold, ruthless person. yes, i may be logical in my thinking and way of seeing things but im not brutal, cold and its not like i dont have any feelings. in my experience my sister with gemini moon she is much more “cold” emotionally than i am. you have to look at house position and aspects its getting. i have it in 2nd house(exalted for moon) and ive got aspect from pluto intensifying my emotions, also trine jupiter and opposite venus in leo. moon is not fallen in aquarius, its rather more difficult in scorpio (even though its a water sign) and capricorn (detriment).
also there is something wrong about this article, i do not put strangers first before my family. although i care about humanity in general, im more of a family person.

Very beautifully said, my moon is in aquarius along with my sun, mercury, venus and jupiter. I feel like i sacrifice for others far too much. However it feels so right. I can’t explain exactly how, but there is never a moment when i don’t put others first. I am friends with everyone and I truly care about others especially the underdogs. I have been mentally exhausted because of this and most of it is totally unappreciated because it is for people that don’t even have the capacity to appreciate. My love and personal relationships suffer tremendously because of my love for the world.

I read somewhere that the moon in aquaius is not ideal, and it is far more better for men than women. However:
sun in pisces + moon in aquarius
sun in libra + moon in aquarius
gives good results for both men and women, making these people more attractive to the opposite sex than other sun and moon combination.
I personally think the moon in aquarius is different, stunning though but complicated.

I have a moon in virgo and the descriptions of moon in aquarian fits my character so I wander what really is true as I give give etc however my rising is in aquarius. So really I don’t think one should base chracter traits purely on moon value?

It is so wonderful to have the moon in Aquarius.
But I can tell from my life experiences that by having moon in Aquarius (nature) at times one can suffer alot.I wish everyone in the world have had moon in Aquarius,it was then when there was no need for a heaven outside this world.
Whether cold or warm_ humanity comes first.And I don’t think someone who puts others first (be it; family,friends or the world) could be ignorant of peoples heartily feelings.
People with moon in Aquarius could be best compared to a candle_ burns to give light to others.

I think it is interesting that Aquarius Moons feel so connected to their sign. They truly love it. I do; that is what brought me to this article. I feel like we have a lot to offer the world. I wish all my fellow Aquarius Moons the best. Although I do not agree with the section about low-quality lunar Aquarian talents. The people I have known who were born with the moon in Aquarius are great talents. I do admit, as well, that I have a tendency to prioritize friends over family and help strangers very easily. This is because the moon also represents the mother and family, and Aquarius, being the sign of humanity and friendship, may tend to feel more of a connection with friends who are equally eccentric and have common interests, who they respect, than with family, who they may feel they have less in common with.

I am Capricorn Sun, Aquarius Moon, Sagittarius Ascendant in 0 degrees, but barely missing Scorpio Ascendant by mere seconds. I did care a great deal for my family until they betrayed me. I’ve been good to friends also until they’ve repeated things I have said or mentioned something to someone of insignificance that I said and I pulled away from them because they could not be trusted after learning that they talk too much. I expect appreciation, but rarely get it!
However, I do care a great deal about the world. Justice and fairness are my best friends. Everyone has the right to live, but everyone does not believe this. I believe the world wishes to be understood, loved and accepted more than anything else.
I believe Aquarius Moons are trend setters, compassionate, cold, aloof, highly spiritual and can be very good at being alone, but can be very sociable and friendly when they need to be. They are usually dependable, likable and wonderful to have around. If a woman has this placement, men are very attracted to her once they get to know her because of her humanistic ideals.
I have this placement and I love having it, because it gives me great pleasure to know that the world so desperately needs me!

What a beautiful analysis! I’d just like to comment on the notion arisin by many that having Moon in Aquarius is dreadful; how can that be so? The moon is the soul and yes we may not be the most emotional of people, but our soul is one of empathy, understanding and freedom. The reason why one calls us cerebral is because whenever for example, someone does me wrong and my rising Scorpio screams, on reflection my moon in Aquarius emphasises, understands the human nature and looks through the eyes of the person who acted against me, thus the anger no longer exists. @Mike the placement certainly is not barren and desolate. Did you not read the article? It is a soul that is constantly moving and fighting for humanity, yeah we are a bit more free than others, we can move on and don’t like chlostrophobic, suffocating situations but that’s ’cause we’re so free and hate to be bound. Obviously Lunar Aquarians would love their placement, because we’re true eccentrics and like to ride a different course to the rest of you…
