the moon in Aquarius

The position of the moon in this sign is one of the best of the twelve. It is described in this superlative way for the following reasons: The moon, naturally variable in influence, has considerable stability in this sign. The lack of heart and frigidity apparent in several of the other luna figures is quite absent in the lunation from Aquarius. The force dispensed from this urge is warm, humane and stimulating. 　　 People with this lunation in the natal chart are apt to be very intelligent, evenly-balanced people with a happy, optimistic quality of thought. They are full of ideas, and lave more ability to put their thoughts into active practice than people of any of the other intellectual positions of this sort (with the possible exception of the moon in Sagittarius). 　　 These people are tolerant, perceptive, humane in their impulses toward mankind, and always willing to give more than they get. They have no petty selfishness and no small jealousies. They give themselves whole-heartedly to any service that they undertake, and they are usually not only capable but inventive. A plan of action or scheme of endeavor under the management of this type of person frequently benefits from their practical improvements. The high types of this group make wonderfully rounded persons. They have, in addition to the more universal virtues already mentioned, pleasant, kindly dispositions in private or domestic life. The less exalted type of luna Aquarian is good-natured and easy-going, but lacks the ability and strength of purpose found in the noble type. 　　 The negative variety of luna Aquarian is sometimes very eccentric, and encourages great unconventionality in the domestic life. For the rest, the existence is purposeless, and all of the noble accomplishment so current in the life of Aquarians is dissipated in idle activities with “arty” groups. 　　 Aquarians in the highest meaning of the term are public characters. Professional men, scholars, teachers, ministers, and specialists in any department serving humanity. They are tolerant, diplomatic, helpful to others in their own field, and ideal workers at whatever holds their intellectual interests. Sometimes this position produces a genius, but such a condition requires rather more personal “wire-pulling” than the moon in Aquarius signifies. By this is meant that the native will give of himself to his cause so unstintingly that of self-aggrandizement is to be gained, it must come as a result of outside recognition rather than as the outcome of any stimulation brought on by the native. This temperament, considered apart from its special character of social servitor, is highly individual. Many eccentricities and peculiarities are a part of these people’s make-up. They are rather unconventional, and live their own lives quite unaffected by comment or criticism. They have a gift for making friends, and are often helped by influential people, exactly as they themselves are ready to help others. There is nothing personal or possessive in the attitude of these people, and they can endure loneliness, privation and periods of waiting better than other more acquisitive types. 　　 The faults most common among this group are procrastination, vain promises, and the inability to force any circumstance that takes a measure of destruction to a conclusion. 　　 The men of this group when engaged in scholarly pursuits and work that brings out their ability, succeed very well in the world. They are seldom discouraged by struggle, and the development of their work is often just as important to them as fulfillment. They seldom have a smooth domestic life, for their inclinations are unconventional, and they seem to draw to them complioted situations that take a lifetime to simplify. 　　 The women that they choose are high-bred and cultured, but there is frequently a cloud hanging over the domestic atmosphtere. Either there are separations to be unraveled. When the situation is finally cleared of complications, this type of man makes an ideal companion in the life. 　　　　 Lunar Aquarian women are rather masculine in their outlook on life. They love the business and professional world, where they are so capable and so successful. When they do marry, they are so capable and successful. When they do marry, they make the best of parents, as they have plenty of patience, kindness, intelligence and understanding. They are so unselfish that the child is many women with the Aquarian lunation in the birth figure is completely masculine in appearance, they enjoy less opportunity to be parents than other types that are not nearly so well equipped. Unfortunately, this is the type of woman who not only has a masculine kind of mind, but an unfeminine appearance as well. She has no sex appeal and feels in no way constrained to simulate anything of the kind. There is no attempt to soften the exterior, and the mind lacks tenderness as well as artifice. 　　　　 In matters of health these natives must beware of nervous prostration. Another avenue through which disease may attack is the lungs. An afflicted moon could bring about anaemia, blood poisoning, and one or another of the social diseases. In extreme cases some of the mental disorders have resulted. A certain amount of rest and relaxation is a necessity with this type of person.
