Moon in Pisces - welcome

topic posted Wed, January 28, 2004 - 12:01 AM by  Mahadevi Mardi
Welcome fellow Moon Fish!

Only in recent years has it come to my attention how critical the Moon sign really is within our personalities. My sun and rising sign have dominated my outward personality for the majority of my life, and yet, underneath has been this moon sign, Pisces, being a source of extreme sensitivity and rich dreamworld life, and mystical tendencies. Unlike sunsign Pisces, the moonsign Pisces I've known have been more apt to keep it under wraps. the moon sign is our hidden self.

I'll post more what I've discovered about this significant mark to our personalities, and what a beautiful gift we have been bestowed with - for my moon sign I am so thankful, for without it, how dreary life might be! My imagination and my creativity are my salvation.

I'd love to hear from the rest of you out there what it means to you, how you express this aspect of yourself, what you know about it (I'm not a professional astrologer by any means!) and we can discuss various other astrological aspects as well :) I look forward to discussing and celebrating this blessed aspect with you all!

    It'd be tough for me to just single out my Pisces moon aspect, for I'm probably one of the purest forms of Pisces you'll run across - Sun, Moon, Ascendant, Saturn, and Chiron all in Pisces! On top of that my Ascendant is conjunct with my Pisces moon, which supposedly just enhances those energies. Sigh....

    Being the quad Pisces (I don't really count Chiron), I'd be curious as to whether you normals :) feel a drive to help people, even to the point of self-sacrificing, and if you feel like you can just stare into people's souls & get complete access to their past & present emotions.

      Wow. what a chart. yes, I imagine it's a bit challenging for you to single out your moon aspect! its a little easier for me, I'm Taurus sun, Cancer rising.
      my moon in pisces belies my inner secret self which has been becoming more and more part of my outward self. I feel I was my sunsign as a child, grew into my rising sign, processed all that cancer emotional stuff, and am moving straight into actualization of my moon sign!
      yes, I feel a powerful drive to help humanity, my line of work shifted to being a healer a couple years back. I have a tendency to be self-sacrificing, but I catch myself (I think the Taurus steps in - practical & business minded ;)
      I am empathic and get intuitive hits off people, and my psychic abilities are becoming more prominent, through dreams and "knowing" and "seeing" the energy of others. But it does not sound like the same intensity as what you experience - and what I know other Pisces are capable of experiencing - since you are sunsign Pisces, you're already there. or potentially there. I have met incredibly psychic powerful pisces who can see right into people's souls, and I have met the pisces who are addicted to substances because they can't handle what they see!

      Pisces are often perceived as the end of the wheel, the perfect spiritually actualized being, getting ready to move off this planet and leave the wheel of incarnation. the lot of them seem tortured souls, and some that I've met who are very spiritual, healers, tend to be very self-sacrificing, overly so, enough to run themselves into the ground. I have to remind them to take care of themselves too!

      while this is all sunsign, the same potential is there for moonsign pisces, all the same can hold true but not usually so external and obvious at least at first. some people never make their moonsign their external personalities, I just seem to be. or perhaps I'm just becoming a more readily apparent cocktail of all three :)

      I believe Pisces Moon is a very spiritually powerful, sensitive position, and those who have it could learn to really access this powerful side of themselves, should they choose to become aware of it and truly accept what they are capable of becoming. it doesn't have to remain a secret side, but even if you want it to remain your inner secret self, lets hear about it :) although quad-pisces wouldn't relate to this bit about inner-pisces-self! ;)

      Hey there, Jay. I'm only a moon in pisces gal, and I can honestly say that I don't feel that drive tugging on my soul like you do. I feel just enough of the pisces breaking through my sagittarius sun to cause me some confusion, and some depression mixed with sympathy. And as I get older (I'm only 19) I am realizing I'm very sensitive more and more... and more. I look at people like you who have such a beautiful collaboration of aspects like that, and if anyone feels the way I do with the unique mixture of conflicting signs in my sun moon and rising. Any thoughts?

      This happens to me and I'm far more virgo in nature;-p The power of the moon is one of the only things "emotional" that I relate this to. The virgo probably enhances the self-sacrificing though I've tried and do limit that to those who my analytical brain says will help.

      Think my pisces moon allows me to feel my own emotions strongly, deeply and with compassion *most of the time*. It has an interesting dance there with mars in gemini.

    I am a Cap w/ Virgo rising , however , alot of people who are privy to astrology pick up on my Piscean nature.... the cap weighs heavy , yet i feel that my moon is very very strong.In fact ,I feel (notice I said "I feel" ) that I follow my heart much of the . I am extra sensitive to my environment , and in many situations,I pick up on what other people are feeling , even before they consciously know what they are feeling ; in otherwords , my very , very first impressions are often right .What happens thoguh , is that when I get these early impressions , i think I am being paranoid , or overly imaginative....

    I would say Moon in Pisces is a Blessing and a curse......

      I think that is really powerful that you've realized that about yourself - that you can trust your initial impression, or your 'intuition' - this is what I had to learn through my lifetime- that I am that sensitive, and that I can trust myself. That I DO know.
      It IS a gift, if you listen to yourself :)
      can save alot of time, trauma, and headaches if we all just trusted our wonderful lunar-fish intuitions!

      "What happens thoguh , is that when I get these early impressions , i think I am being paranoid , or overly imaginative.... "


      ding, ding, n more ding. With the virgo rising, you'll also pick up on the subtle things with your mind though feel it and tend to question it. Pisces moon is incredibly intuitive, really all signs can be. When it comes to this combo though, I relate.

      The questioning is natural for the combo but the power that comes internally when recognizing that those first impressions are usually the most accurate, or the first thought when open, is a great gift!

    I cried just half the day away today for no reason. That's Pisces Moon to me. Sun, Moon (aracnet moon in Pisces),Mercury, Venus (Aries cusp) in Pisces...... Forgive me if I'm not coherent. I'm a drowning my wet moon in a clowd of MaryJuana smoke.

    Both my parents are pisces and I'm a libra with pisces moon, aquarius rising and sun in libra. I also have my venus in scorpio which is insane sometimes. Anyone else have 'funny feelings' or 'premonitions'? I've had them since I was little, but the most frightening one was when the space shuttle blew up back in the 80s...I had one of those 'funny feelings' before that happened.

        I have Pisces moon, jupiter and mercury...so I think/feel or rather, feel/think ala pisces. It has been challenging throughout my life and only when I accepted my "gift" did it really start to bring magic into my experience. At times lots of struggle, yet when I surrender and get out of my own way, life is unbelievably beautiful and satisfying.

    What a nice positive way to look at the pices Moon.
    I haven't read the other posts yet but wanted to comment on the welcome/intro one. It slants the influence in a better way then I brush over it in my mind. I am glad to find others with a Pices Moon because I have felt it is a strong silent influence on my internal thoughts.

      my sun, moon, mercury, and venus is in pisces. i have the tendency to be overly imaginative, creative, generous and empathetic. my libra ascendent seems to be the only thing putting me in touch with the world. otherwise, it's just my head in the clouds.

    My moon and chiron are both in pisces and the 12t house....easy to space out, meditate, feel out situations and have a stronger right brain than alot of guys. My sun is aquarius. any wonder i'm an acupuncturist? scientific-art, arty-science.

      Sun and moon in Pi... And 3 other planets but I don't remember what they are??? Although I've heard 2 different reports on my astrology??? What is the truth????????????????Psychic, sensitive,compassionate, dreamy, artistic, love to dance, sensual , healer etc.... All piscean traits apply... Isn't it great!

        I am aquarian sun, pisces moon. Discovering my moon helped explain so much to me. I no longer feel the need to struggle with or explain all those watery "feelings" that wash over me. Since I was a child I longed to be near the water and would become very depressed when we would leave it . I recently moved to the coast where I am able to indulge myself as often as I need to. How nice to be able to wade into the great mama, and let her clease me! I am so happy to have found you all!

          I'm new to the tribe, and also an Aqua sun, Pisces moon, as I just discovered today. I think my Pisces moon manifests in my spirituality more than anything else. Also, I've felt that beneath my cool Aqua exterior runs a deep river of emotions. Now it makes sense. I have the typical Aquarian sense of detachment combined with Piscean intuition.

          hello all !

    I'm a Virgo born on a full moon in Pisces. Virgo and Pisces are opposing signs, which makes life interesting, sometimes contradictory and sometimes balancing. Either way, I cherish my Pisces moon and wouldn't trade it for anything.
    • Re: Moon in Pisces - welcome

      Sun, December 26, 2004 - 7:39 PM
      Yes, I too have sun in virgo and moon in opposing pisces. I am an organizer and run two non-profits, but a mystic and artist as well. I find that, in my life, they balance each other out very nicely. My pisces moon will theorize about spirituallity and then my virgo sun will organize it into a pallatable and logical arguement, and then my gemini rising will communicate it in the most poetic yet straight forward way possible... heehee...

      But I have always connected deeply with my moon in pisces, and cherish the beautiful emotions that I can find in myself, that I am able to find beauty in all places and manifestations. Recently I have been reveling, even, in the beauty of the purity of emotion in reaction to tragedy. My recognition the grace of an emotion so pure and thru is the only way that I am able to do the activists work that I do with my virgo sun and gemini rising, the only way that I can look the world in the face every day and then choose to give my all to make it a better place.

      But I find myself crying more and more since I learned that it is part of my nature with the pisces moon! and it feels good.

        i feel you stormy,

        i'm taurus sun, aries rising, pisces moon

        just like the moon herself, the strong poetic mystic magick man watched the world without drawing a whole lot of attention to himself.

        its fun learning about myself this way and seeing how much my pisces moon reflects myown views about myself. my gifts ability to see and be!

        what a pairing of opposites. I imagine the Virgo-earth- sunsign lets you be practical. I am very grateful myself for being a Taurus heavily influenced by water (cancer rising, pisces moon) because after a long and very dreamy childhood, I have been able to take on the practical matters of existance in a way that I see my Pisces sunsign boyfriend, and countless other Piscean friends, really struggle with. With my Taurean grounding I can accomplish whatever I set my heart on doing - including manifesting dream images through sculpture, painting, or manifesting the line of work I desire, etc. in other words able to take practical steps to bring vision to physical form.

        like an embassador between the two worlds - mystical and physical reality, I can play in both comfortably. and sunsign Pisces needs us to translate practical reality sometimes :)

          Yes, I have a handful of planets in Virgo in addition to the sun, and definitely appreciate the Pisces moon influence being brought in, all in all a good combination. My girlfriend is actually a Pisces Sun with a Virgo moon, and it has been quite an amazing, entertaining, and well balanced pairing.

      I am born on a full moon too!! I don`t think it is a good combination, because I am constantly unsatisfied, when my moon is satisfied my sun isn`t and othe r way around...I always want something else! If I get something I realise it is not THAT...and who knows what that is...

      The thing that I like the most about pisces moon is great love for music and imagination...daydreaming...

      What worries me the most is that famous pisces masochism...when we subconciently want to suffer...and that suffering feels so purifying (I am sorry for the mistakes, english is not my native language...)

    Pisces moon with regard to both Western & Vedic astrology. I study Vedic now, so I'm paying more attention to that now. The moon sign is very important, and I find Pisces to strongly mark my personality and thinking. My sun sign is Scorpio.

        Sun in Gemini
        Moon in Pisces
        Cancer Ascendant

        My combo has resulted in my becoming a spiritual counselor, teaching and doing private client work with astrology, tarot, and shamanism. My Pisces Moon is pivotal in shaping that work.

        I've always been drawn to Pisces Moon people very strongly... 2 out of the 3 most important relationships in my life were with other Pisces moon people... now I have a Scorpio moon partner which is different but still works for me.

        I think Pisces Moon people are blessed with an understanding that there's "reality" as we all agree to it for the purposes of daily living but that the real "rules" are far more fluid and paradoxical than most others want to admit.

        We're a special breed and I am glad to have found this tribe!
