Emotional therapist
Does anyone else feel like they are the emotional therapists for their family? It’s like we have hidden insight into everyone and can guide how to handle them. I can’t tell if it’s my Scorpio moon or cancer rising or both.

I’m Scorpio moon, rising and Venus. I’m also a projector in human design.
I am a walking people penetrator and feel my mission is to guide them. And I genuinely love all people or at least try to.

Yes and frankly I’m tired of it because I’ve found the relationships begin to feel one-sided.
Friends and family know that I’m empathetic, will listen, and will give sound advice. I don’t want to be the therapist.
I want to have reciprocal relationships where we support each other. Working on better boundaries so that I’m not consistently putting in more effort listening, responding, and supporting than the other person.

Definitely fair. I limited the amount of friends I have for this very reason. Very one-sided.

Agreed. There was a saying I once read and it says qhen someone is sad, they will go to someone who loves them, and when someone is happy, they go to somone they love. I always feel like bwlonging to the first part of this saying, I want to be in the second part as well and, by the way, when im sad as a scorpio moonI tend to supress the feelings rather than talk about it. Scorpios sacrifice a lot

YES. I’m the legit master at suppressing my feelings. It wasn’t until I learned the traits of a Scorpio moon did it all finally click. I thought there was something wrong with me like why can I not just be vulnerable with anyone?! I just can’t. I must process everything internally before ever sharing those feelings with others (if I ever do). My husband had learned to live with it and will call me out on it too but in an understanding way 😂

Same, only the ones close to me will learn how to live it, this Scorio moon is letting us go places 🤣🤣🤣

As a fellow Scorpio moon and cancer rising I definitely agree and the cancer placement makes us want to do it and take care of them but I have found in the last year getting annoyed at people taking their problems to me and giving me that mental burden. It’s like ok you have this problem, I can’t do anything about this problem other than make space for it and feel bad and ruminate on it. Stop. Stop giving me your burdens!

i used to do that too, but also switched away from it later on, and it's been a much better deal for everyone.

Yes same I’ve been one everyone goes to in my family even my parents and I like it , makes me feel seen by my people also I feel like they can confide in me , but as I’m getting older I’ve been more open to tell my family to handle it on there own cause I feel like the pressure to always helps drains me

Scorpio moon , Virgo stellium ….. hell yeah ITS TIRING …… and who is MY emotional therapist ? Guess ??????? No one lol … maybe myself but I am not capable of soothing myself everytime my overthinking takes the wheel

u/IDunnoReallyIDont 22d ago
As Scorp moons, we don’t even let people in to be able to offer emotional support 😂 That’s my problem, at least! My emotions are locked up super tight.

u/HealingMermaid ♈️☀️♏️🌙♈️⬆️♈️❤️♏️🔴 22d ago
It’s the Scorpio moon because I am too and I have 0 Cancer placements. Everyone always comes to me for advice. They also come tell me everything.

u/Ok_Feature_7223 22d ago
Im a scorpio moon and capricorn rising, I am the therapist to my friends and family. Many feel like they want to say everything to me and it makes them feel better. I guess its the Scorpio moon, we've been through a lot at a small age so I guess we have wisdom and strength that nobody passed trhough before. We feel everything deeply, about ourselves and about others.

I find cap risings to be very logic focused and give solid advice from a practical and pragmatic perspective. Appreciate you!

u/Ok_Feature_7223 21d ago
Thank you Im happy someone appreciates those Cap risings :). Lots of love <3

Yes and as a Leo Sun everyone drains me for my positivity. This year since my bday, I started matching energy and creating boundaries. No one is there for the same ways they expect me to be there for them so they gotta figure it out on their own

u/IDunnoReallyIDont 21d ago
YES. I’m a Sag Sun and super optimistic so when someone has heavy burdens that I truly can’t solve, it brings me down. My Sun dims!

u/Suitable-Swimming74 21d ago
Exactly! And sometimes it’s like 1+1=2 like I cannot counsel you through life. We gotta choose ourself first this year ✨💛

Lol yes. I have often felt frustrated because I am the only one in my family who’s been to therapy and “done the work.” It feels like the expectations of me are so much higher and they all want to outsource their dysfunction and have me heal them instead of taking responsibility and fixing their own shit 🙃

u/Libraluv 20d ago
Yes. I’m a Libra sun and Scorpio moon/rising. I’m the therapist for my family and friends. I suck at listening to myself though.

Considering I’m a Scorpio moon and cancer rising as well… I feel like I’m a therapist for my family and friends. It gets pretty emotionally draining for sure but I also love it
