Sunday, May 9th marks Mother’s Day. Mothers near and far will be graced with pleasantries from those who love them the most. Astrology provides a basis for understanding how we approach motherhood. The following is an overview of mothering based on astrology signs. Please consider the sun, moon, and rising placements for a thorough understanding.
Taurus-The Earth Mama-Think of delicious meals, nice clothing, and a future bank account set aside for the kids. With the Taurus mother, security is of the utmost importance. She’ll do everything in her power to make sure that her children’s basic needs are met and then some. Sometimes she can be a bit possessive of her little ones, and she can be a notorious creature of habit resisting change at all costs, but she makes up for this with her quiet strength and surefooted stability.
Gemini-The Curious Mama-The Gemini mother loves to learn and explore with her children. She is the mother that is always current on the latest trends, and she is always available for a talk. She’s the one that enjoys getting out in the neighborhood and experiencing new things with her little ones. Sometimes, the Gemini mama can be considered flighty or “all over the place” due to its varied interests. However, the kids love just how much variety she brings to their lives.
Cancer-The Nurturing Mama-A cozy home, home-cooked meals, your favorite pet, and those special footed pajamas are all courtesy of the Cancer mother. She is the pinnacle of the deeply emotional, nurturing mother. If you ever need someone to be there for you no matter what, the Cancer mother is it! Now, sometimes she can be a little moody and such, but it’s nothing but love for her children.
Leo-The Royal Mama-If you want to feel special, then the Leo mama will make sure that happens! Since this mama is royalty, it is no doubt that her children are royalty by default! Whatever wonderful things she has for herself, her children will get also. Creme brulee for the kiddos? Check! Filet mignon (even if they only want a hot dog)? Check! The finest clothes? Check! Sometimes she can be a bit dramatic, but overall, the Leo mama takes great pride in her cubs.
Virgo-The Efficient Mama-Need a schedule? Want a clean home to thrive in? Want someone that is always there to help you? The Virgo mother is the efficient mother that keeps everything in order. She’ll make sure that the home is clean and orderly. She’ll organize her children’s books and make sure they are on time for school and their extra curricular activities. She may come off a bit critical at times, but that’s just because she wants the best for her children.
Libra-The Harmonious Mama-This is the mother that just wants everyone to get along. “No fighting,” she says. She doesn’t do well with strife and conflict, so she’ll do her best to make sure that all her kiddos are happy in their own little way. Fairness is important to her, so she’ll try her best not to play favorites. The Libra mother can be a bit indecisive at times, but she means well. She just wants to make sure she considers all options so that her children are happy.
Scorpio-The Deep Mama-The Scorpio mama is deep, honest, and sincere. She always looks out for the best interests of her children, and is usually able to handle the more difficult topics like sex, abuse, mental health, and depression a lot easier than her other zodiac mother counterparts. Never one to shy away from the tough stuff, this is the mother that is always there for her children…through the best and worst of times. The Scorpio mama may be a bit dark at times and even possessive, but she is loyal to a fault and always there to guide her children with her stellar intuition.
Sagittarius-The Adventurous Mama-Get ready for some adventure with the Sagittarius mama! Think spur of the moment trips, exotic foods, and lots of laughs. The Sagittarius mama wants to enjoy life with her kids. She is always optimistic and buoyant which is great for keeping the little ones happy. This mama likes to enjoy the outside with bike rides, hikes, and other outdoor adventures, so the kids can expect to have lots of fun. Sometimes the Sagittarius mother can be a bit blunt, but this is only because she wants to get her point across directly.
Capricorn-The Goal-Oriented Mama-The Capricorn mother can be a bit stern and serious, but she means well. She is like an oak tree that is solid as a rock. She wants to make sure that her children are properly prepared for the world, so she has plans for them. The Capricorn mama can be a stickler for being responsible, but this is because she wants her kids to be prepared for the real world.
Aquarius-The Off-Beat Mama-The Aquarius mama marches to the beat of her own drum, and she wants her kids to be able to embrace themselves to the fullest as well. This is the weird mama that all the others kids may wish they had. She is always there to urge her kids to consider other points of view. Sometimes the Aquarius mama may be a bit rebellious, but this is just her way of showing her kids that they can live their life on their own terms.
Pisces-The Spiritual Mama-ThePisces mama is the compassionate one that is always there to provide their little ones with love. They are always there for their little ones and encourage them to explore their artistic, creative, spiritual sides. Sometimes the Pisces mama can be a pushover because she just wants to be the best mama…and she sometimes lacks boundaries. This is because she just wants to love her kids unconditionally.
