Moon in Aries:  Being told to wait or calm down!  Standing in the back of a line.

Moon in Taurus: Being told to hurry!  Having things moved around or routines disrupted.  Mixing flavors, i.e, my husband does not like “orange pineapple”!

Moon in Gemini: Having their thoughts dismissed.  Mental slowness. Being ignored.

Moon in Cancer: Feeling neglected or unsupported, especially by family.

Moon in Leo: Being overlooked or unacknowledged.

Moon in Virgo:  Criticism for small details, feeling unproductive, being unappreciated.

Moon in Libra: Conflict, disharmony, anything that disrupts relationships or beauty

Moon in Scorpio: Betrayal, dishonesty, feeling vulnerable.

Moon in Sagittarius: Feeling trapped, confined, or emotionally stifled.

Moon in Capricorn: Feeling like a failure. Not receiving recognition for their hard work.

Moon in Aquarius:  Feeling stifled, misunderstood, or emotionally manipulated.

Moon in Pisces:  Feeling disconnected, rejected, or emotionally overwhelmed.
