Moon in Aquarius
The Moon in Aquarius needs to understand its feelings from a little distance. Emotions are observed, named and often set aside for later; the Aquarius Moon is calm in a crisis and awkward at a funeral. Comfort comes from friends, ideas and freedom, and from being unlike the family it came from. The work is to let a feeling be felt before it is explained, and to stay in the room when it gets personal.
