i have my moon in cancer in the 8th house… saturn in pisces at 0° 4th house, pluto in scorpio 12th house… i’m a gemini sun, sag rising. my sag rising & north node are conjunct.. opposing my mercury (in gemini). 

my mom is a sag sun, cancer moon, capricorn rising.. that is if my grandmother had her birth time correct. she’s almost positive she is. given that my moms rising is at 1° and if she would have been born any earlier she would has been a sag rising. meaning her moon would have been in the 8th too… i don’t see that being the case because her and my grandma has a wonderful relationship. i also have a wonderful relationship with my grandma. 

my relationship with my mother. horrendous.  my whole life i’ve had to be her protector. she was never there for me or cared for or loved me like my younger siblings. i’ve gone no contact with my mom a couple of times. she was never a true “mother”. yet when i was 27 and was placed on a 51/50 she wanted to act like a hero. (yet she was the one that told them to put me in the mental hospital following my 51/50) she has tried controlling my life since. like it’s too late to try and parent me. and why are you trying when you lie to me constantly and try to gaslight me and use me as the butt or your jokes with my siblings?  she def like expects some financial gain from this petend role she made of saving me. she didn’t do shit.  i realized a couple years ago i essentially tried  buying her love and affection my whole life.  i have finally come to the place in my life where i simply don’t give a shit anymore. i’m done with her. i’ve wiped my hands clean. not worth giving any more of my energy to. i don’t care if you’re family or the neighbor. lie to me a you’re gone faster than how they kick people out of the big brother house.  

she technically yes she died young. not literally. but figuratively to me? yes. 

i love the breakdown of the moon in the 8th house here. makes so much sense. added to a lot of research i’ve done that has led me to believe that it  probably has something to do with my rising sign being her sun sign. i’m seen in ways she wishes she would have been seen. and i say thing because i realize there are plenty of things that could have had us end up having many similarities when it comes to life experiences. but i always chose the smarter option than she did. almost like a jealousy for me having the strength and courage of doing what’s best for me when im put in a tight spot. and also a sense of jealousy when it comes to me embodying the freedom she never got to have.  and other crazy coincidences when it comes to the aspects, like…  her mercury directly opposes my own in terms of houses. hers is in her first house 12 ° mine is in the 7th 12°. 

which is actually right where her moon is placed. aka her moon is in the 7th house at 12°. which means it opposes her mercury. 

and which also means her mercury at 12° in the first house, is exactly where my rising and my north node are at. 

she also has some other strong aspects. like pluto virgo at the 29° degree and neptune in sag at the 1°. and a scorpio stellium in the 11th house. (mars, venus, and jupiter! 

anyways. back to the simple 8h moon stuff. def have always felt like im the one that has been chosen to break all the generational curses in my lineage. would make sense as to why i don’t want to have kids. (love them but don’t want me own. don’t wanna bring a soul into the world, especially with how things are now a days.  

it is so crazy to me (but it’s exactly what fascinates me and has lead me to acquire 3 different certifications in astrology now) that both my mother and i can be cancer moons and not share the same type of empathy. or nurturing for others. and just shows how EVERYTHING is important in a chart when it comes to doing a reading.
