Dealing with odd sign combinations

Ok, well I'm a Virgo with moon in Scorpio and also Scorpio rising. I am very, very emotional and it's been a problem for getting into relationships. Even over little things, my mind with work it's Virgo magic on something seemingly miniscule, I'll think it over and over and over until I've reached a conclusion that is way out of proportion, and then that conclusion gets handed over to my emotions. Then, I try to bottle it up, but most often I just feel like exploding if I do that, and then I end up going through an outburst of sorts about things I invented in my head. It's absolutely terrible, and I don't know how to control it. Anyone else have this problem? Or perhaps a recommendation to control myself?

Well, yes, I realize it is a common thought-process. The problem is that scorpio moon makes me overly emotional. Whereas most virgos can remain -stoic- unless provoked, I provoke myself into an emotional frenzy that I can't control. It's just, I always end up saying something stupid. I say it in a controlled, calm manner like I have all the restrain in the world, but inside of me it's like that proverbial volcano is erupting with no end in sight, until I have said my peace, then sit there for an hour thinking about what I said, realize how stupid it was, then have to go apologize. Well, by that time they think I'm a freak and no longer have interest in me, all while the only reason I overreacted is because I like them! It's become a viscious cycle that I can't seem to control.

Hello Jjjjat.

At least you have an idea of how it feels to be on opposite side of the fence. 😉

My own experimentation shows that it's impossible to figure it out (the subconscious) by Virgoan analysing methods. The subconscious is too complex and logical to fall under control of basic analytical skills. The only solution that I know to deal with the situation is to feed your curiousity. Even then, even if you know how it works, you still can't control it as Virgos could do, but you can channel it to particular direction which is the most powerful form of mind.

Human beings are emotional. Trying to prove otherwise is a pathetic practise.
