This has to be the hardest thing for me to learn balance with in regards to my 12th house Gemini Moon.
Sometimes, I wish it was just one way or the other, but I exist in a kind of shifting middle ground.
Even my need to be social and then my need to be in absolute solitude. I have to articulate my feelings to other people who don't understand that it CAN be this way *right now* and some other way later and you won't think it's infuriating or anything -- it makes sense. It's called "changing your mind"....
Anyone else 1) get what I am talking about and 2) have survival techniques? *grins*

Re: Learning Dualistic patience
Sun, March 19, 2006 - 1:37 PMI can see what you mean. 12 house Moon. It seems you might have a hard time explaining you own emotions to yourself. You Moon lies just out of your peripheral, and is busy “all” the time. How do you transmit to the outside world what you yourself can’t hold in front of you to see?
Mine is in the 7th house so it’s for all that know my well to see, and often they see it better than I do..lol (Heart on the sleeve) kind of thing -

Re: Learning Dualistic patience
Mon, March 20, 2006 - 3:18 PMWorse, because it is conjunct my ASC, I think other people actually MIGHT see my emotions, that I can't see because they come thru, transmit unless I completely and consciously seek to just stop them. (And right after that, I stay up half the night from the sleeplessness of the nervous energy it takes to do that... in some ways, I am SUCH a mess.)
I think I would like a 7th house moon. Wouldn't that make you more suited to sharing your emotions with an "other"? Meaning... you select to share the contents of your heart with loved one?
Having a 12th house moon is like having emotions, not always understanding WHY you are having those emotions, others catching the communication about said emotions and THEN no one really understanding...
It makes me appear terribly moody sometimes. Having a Venus and Mars at their fall does NOT help.

Re: Learning Dualistic patience
Mon, March 20, 2006 - 3:26 PMmy mercurial changeability is something I feel I have absolutely no control over and it's really frustrating when other people don't understand that. I make friends who understand my fickle nature because it is a big part of who I am. . . (this also comes from my tight moon-uranus opposition).
Sometimes I wish I could learn to be more emotionally / intellectually stable, but that is probably never going to happen, and I hope I'll be okay with that some day (not yet, I'm still always trying to force myself into being stable).
Changeable emotions aren't always a curse. . . if I'm feeling a bit depressed, the emotion doesn't last very long. Then again, either does extreme happiness. I don't think I really mind though, deep down I think I actually enjoy my changeability. -

Re: Learning Dualistic patience
Sun, August 19, 2007 - 1:18 PMI know exactly what you are saying, Ergane. I too was... eherm... gifted with a moon in Gemini in the 12th house!
I'm crazier than a Crane in a desert rain, as well. I have moon, venus opposition Uranus, as well as sun in Gemini in the Eleventh house, which not only makes me changeable and distant to my feelings, but a complete Uranian outsider nutcase! lol I have always felt the feelings that you describe, Ergane. I know exactly where you are coming from. It's a difficult posistion. You get your feelings from who knows where, and Geminis always trying to rationalize it... and it seems impossible.
Ah, if only we could all have our sun and moon with the houses in the same sign... much less confusion (that is of course, if you arent a sun and lunar Gemini! AHHH! Traveling sales man with a jet! Who knows where that mercurial character's going!)
