Virgo and emotions

Hey all smile This has been on my mind for a good while, thought i'd spill it and get the perspective of some fellow virgos!
I've read everywhere that virgo people aren't big on emotions. we have them, it's just harder to reach. We give our heart to those who will hold em n not crush it. So, yeah a little on the cautious side smile you can even call it being afraid..but i find that endearing about us, that we want to give someone ourselves truly and hence guard it against cookiemonsters Big Grin With that said, i have an aqua moon...and needless to say i'm aware of the popular notion that a virgo with aqua moon is a COMPLETE robot!
Now comes the part which i don't get! I'm an extremely emotional person. My mercury is in virgo, venus in libra and mars in gemini....that's like tons of air right there! And many of my friends know me to be emotionally controlled. But if anyone dares ask my leo, my cap bff or my parents...they'll hear a completely different story. I blame my cap rising for appearing restrained. But i'm actually too emotional for my own good. I make so many emotional decisions. I do have the virgo-aqua nature of disappearing at times.. and i'm trying to work on it >__< and I absolutely love emotional people. Only, i expect them to find a balance between their emotions and rational thinking. Even my pisces mom who has a hard time understanding the workings of my brain never fails to sense my emotions n says i'm quite moody and reflective. I run on certain principles..which i've stuck to despite flooding emotions that make me waver sooo much. The floodgates are wide open.. and trust me there's no water in my chart AT ALL.

I just don't get what is it in my chart..that makes me all of this. It'll be great if someone can shed some light on this.
Thanks a ton for reading all of that (mars in gemini, go figure Big Grin )
I also have alot of air in my chart & I am emotional, WTF? I have 8% water in my chart, Cancer Mars maybe. I have a very hard time expressing those emotions to other people so I can come off as being emotionally detached. You can't only consider your birth chart. Do you have any emotional environmental background? Family life? That could be a factor.
Venus in Libra? So do I. I believe Libras are more emotional than all of the air signs so maybe that could also contribute. IDK, still learning about astrology. Not to say the others don't, they're just controlled. Same applies to Virgo. Emotions are there. We just don't care to advertise them on billboards or wear them on our sleeve. We just know how to keep them in check.
This is what my virgo does when people get emo with him like yelling, etc..
he hears you and then walks away/or hangs up on you. He will not address the issue face to face/on phone too much at the moment. He has to process it for a bit first and/or let you calm down and have what he calls ' a reasonable discussion."
He can't handle outbursts or verbal attacks. It doesn't make him unfeeling..just the opposite.
Example..mine hung up on me just the other day because I got emo on him. I called him back an hour later and he answered. I said why did u hang up. he said to give you time to calm down first. and then he came over to talk about it. He understood why i got all emotional and he made it right..for ME not because he felt what he did was wrong but understood my feelings and put me first.
He also knows he can tell me anything/share anything with me and we discuss anything..even if we disagree. Its a trust thing.

I open up when needed. When confronted..I choose my battles wisely. When entreated for my emotional reaction to something specific or requested..I'm honest and straightforward. I don't do it often..why? Because I am human. The boundaries of my psyche make me who I am. If you feel the need to mold me for your convenience, I sense it....and bounce. I deserve as much. Know me...don't try to "guide" things. Life will work "us" out..not petty machinations.


I like this .. I like how real you are and true to yourself.

Real talk, i totally agree. Venus in libra seems to me as more emotional and free of games compared to other venus air placements i've seen. You were right there when you pointed out that family and environment could make even an airy person very emotional. That's something to think about...
decan, i hear you! Despite being so emotional, being a virgo has its binds firmly in place. Even the most messy disorganized virgos have this discipline of the mind. I have met many virgos who can discipline their minds to completely erase a memory they feel is unnecessary to hang on to or would only pull them down,
capbaby - thats such a typicl virguy behavior!! i used to date one..and he used to do the EXACT same thing!
Layna smile yeah ur right. I've this instant affinity towards caps being a cap rising. cancer is one sign that loves me for some reason though ive no water placements. Since childhood everywhere i go, the crabs find me first lol. 2/3rd of my close friends are water signs.
"I read somewhere that sharing placements between two people intensifies certain characteristics"
^ True true Big Grin my leo is practically virgo if u look at his chart, but his taurus moon and my aqua moon have never clashed(miracle of all miracles). scorp moon+cancer moon =

Aww I know of a Leo who's packed with Virgo in his chart, too... except he's got Cancer Moon. But that combination of Leo aura and Virgo perfection is DEADLY! ConfusedConfusedConfused


Hi Layna... Just curious... What do you mean by "deadly"? Too much to handle? Too difficult? Just askin' since I am a Leo chic with Cancer Moon and lotsa Virgo in my chart. Haha. I know I am a handful. But; wouldn't think of myself as "deadly"! I'm a big softie and I have a lot of love to give!!!
^^^ I know you directed that toward Layna, but I agree. Deadly. I dealt with a guy with moon in cancer & he's very complicated & is emotionally insecure & manipulative. He was great when he was great but man...when he's bad, he's deadly...

I just looked at my chart again and realized that my moon is in Aquarius not Cancer! (My rising sign is Cancer, which is where I got confused). Thank the stars -- because that somehow really upset me! I would hate to think I am being manipulative emotionally to anyone; especially without realizing it!! (There are probably equally cray things about moon in aquarius people too though...)
