“How does your child perceive the mother?” Your child sees their mother as an almost inaccessible and very unusual woman. She seems to him like a free-thinking person who loves everything new and is highly intellectual.
“What does he need to feel confident and secure?” Emotionally, Aquarius tends to be cold and detached. However, your child may be open and friendly toward everyone they meet. He loves the world, loves his friends, loves you… but it’s best not to get too close to him. You disrupt his aura, steal his air. He feels suffocated. Coldness arises—does he simply withdraw to seek new friends? He will return later, perhaps with joyful greetings, and stay—until you smother him again. The key is not to impose too many of your own standards or conventions on him.
This child needs to be himself, unique—not what others want him to be. He requires a sphere where he can be unconventional: it could be his style of dress, the activities he chooses, or his own ideas and philosophy. Your child will always have a bit of rebellion in him. Allow him to rebel against something else, but not against you. Of course, there are certain standards he must follow. However, you will resolve the most important issues more successfully if you can yield on the less significant ones.
You will communicate with your child more effectively by using a rational and intellectual approach rather than an emotional one, as he feels uncomfortable with emotional displays and may be intolerant of those who lose control. Stay calm.

Moon in Aquarius is the least “emotional” position of the Moon. All feelings are under strict control. Intellect comes first. Such children always think before they act. Emotions or feelings won’t sway them. When other people’s emotions burst outward, a “Moon in Aquarius” child will simply feel out of place. These children need to be taught that everyone is different and that not everyone can control their emotions. They should learn to be kinder and to accept others’ emotions more calmly.
Children with Moon in Aquarius often have unconventional thinking: they easily embrace new ideas and frequently demonstrate an original perspective. They prefer to follow their own path. These children love to experiment and want freedom in everything. They want to do what they like, when they like. If you deny them freedom—or even limit it—they may show remarkable stubbornness. It’s quite possible that others will consider them eccentric.
They are noble by nature and inclined to care for others on almost a societal scale. These children can be called philanthropists, though their good intentions don’t always translate into practical action. They love applause and any kind of approval from others. Any praise means a great deal to them. These children want the whole world to value them. Approach this wisely: hint that success in the eyes of the world can be achieved—if they direct their energy toward serving it and creating a “paradise on earth.” Just make sure the goals are realistic. For children with this Moon placement, friends occupy one of the most important places in life. They generally enjoy being around people and derive satisfaction from any kind of group activity. They will happily join all sorts of clubs and societies to share their thoughts and ideas with others. They have high ideals and strive to make the world a better place. To prevent your child from bumping their head too many times later on, teach them to be more flexible, avoid unnecessary conflicts, and respond calmly to criticism.
Everything unusual and irrational simply fascinates such children. They devour science fiction, take a serious interest in astrology, hypnosis, and dream interpretation. Anything related to the future captures their attention, as they themselves are representatives of a new era! They passionately wish to try everything new. Stimulate their naturally sharp minds by giving them opportunities. They love visiting natural history museums and computer trade shows.
No matter how dissatisfied you may be with your child’s behavior, hide your feelings and never show anger—your actions must be logical. Such a child simply won’t respond to parental emotions or impulsive actions, and you won’t achieve any results. Always think before you speak or act. And if you do lose your temper and snap, the best thing to do is explain to the child that not everyone can control their emotions.
Children with Moon in Aquarius will always strive to help everyone. Teach your child to help himself first, and then he will be able to help others. His constant desire to make the world a better place will bear fruit—he will work selflessly for the benefit of society. And all you have to do is remind him not to forget his own family amid his lofty aspirations and wildly important tasks. Sometimes, it’s hard to deal with such children, but the reward for your efforts will be their passionate love.

Oh, how I like you! But don’t hold me back—without light and freedom, I can’t live even a single day!
Emotionally, Aquarius tends to be cold and detached. However, your child with Moon in Aquarius may be open and friendly toward everyone they meet. He loves the world, loves his friends, loves you… but it’s best not to get too close to him. You disrupt his aura, steal his air. He feels suffocated. Coldness arises—does he simply withdraw to seek new friends? He will return later, perhaps with joyful greetings and hugs, and stay—until you smother him again. What’s the point? Don’t be possessive and don’t try to impose too many of your own standards or conventions on this child.
This child needs to be himself, unique—not what others want him to be. He requires a sphere where he can be unconventional. It could be his style of dress, the activities he chooses, or the ideas and philosophy he follows. No matter what your expectations are, your child will take pleasure in doing at least some things his own way. If you understand him and give him space for this, it will be much easier for you to lay the best emotional foundation before he meets the world and to protect his feelings.
Allow him to rebel against something else, but not against you. Of course, there are certain standards he must follow. However, you will resolve the most important issues more successfully if you can yield on the less significant ones. Eccentricity in clothing, for example, is only superficial. Skipping school is far more serious.
You will communicate with your child more effectively by using a rational and intellectual approach rather than an emotional one. He feels uncomfortable with emotional displays. This doesn’t mean he hides his feelings. He may well tell you what he “feels,” meaning what he “thinks.” But he may be intolerant of those who lose control. Stay calm.
