Hej Crissy!
The painting/collages were very nice! Thanks for sharing.
As I said before, my husband also has an Out of bounds Moon, but in the sign of Cancer. Also very creative, but tends to get moody about it, as I don't feel that his learning environment gave as much support to that as it could have.
He also has a "graphics arts" bent to him, and does "CD covers" and websites as a kind of hobby.
As far as Dyslexia goes, I wouldn't really place all that pressure on the Moon, Scorpymoon read something about Pallas-Athena being involved with dyslexia, and I have looked at a few charts and noticed that with my learning disabled brother (has a hard time reading and writing) his Pallas-Athena was exactly conjunct Mercury in Taraus. But there are a lot of aspects that could easily be in there...
I just feel the Moon an unlikely suspect; but the Moon's motivation seems to be a good way out of problems, by emotionally motivating the person with some rewards and satisfaction.
Take care,
svenskasfinx

hey there svenskasfinx!
well, that is very interesting, since i actually have pallas athene conjunct my sun by 2° (it's split, though, my sun's at pis 28° and pallas aries 1°). ive been reading this great book called mythic astrology (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0875422489/002-4945176-3568803?v=glance) and it has a chapter on pallas. her story really intrigues me, and i identify strongly with her myth.
i'm not sure the moon itself would really be related directly to my dyslexia, either (which i still struggle with, especially in my speech patterns, oddly enough - it's quite common for me to transpose words in my sentences)...but since it's placed in the 3rd house (as kim reminded me), in sag, the apex point of a tight t-square, and it is out of bounds...well, you can see it perhaps played a part in that part of my life.
the moon must be an important planet for your husband, with the moon dignified in the sign of cancer, plus out of bounds! what house is it in? did you say? i cant seem to recall.
sincerely, chrissy

Hello Chrissy- Yes I feel that the Moon out of bounds in Cancer in the 1st house (conjunct -7 degrees away from his acendant in Gemini) and conjunct Jupiter, and almost exact conjunction with Psyche in Cancer. You're right, and sometimes I over look it, it must be very important to him. His out of bounds moon is also parallel by way of declinations my Mars (out of bounds at 25 degrees N) and conjunct it as well by 1 degree. It seems to make feel it is very important for him that I am "Active" and he "Passive" according to the astrologer in Sweden with the fantastic Icarus chart ; maybe I think the way she put it was a bit too traditional, more in feminine and masculine ideas... I do tend to activate his Moon though. I just hope its a good thing... I don't want to press issues because I feel that if I just dominate, which is really easy for me to do, he could be pushed around in the wrong way. We should start disscussing that Pallas-Athena thing on another thread, because more and more, I feel its interesting to, being mildly dyslexic myself, and then getting out of control with a flooding of words. Take care, svenskasfinx

dear svenskasfinx,
you're right, i'll start another post about pallas athene when i have more time to devote to it. it's actually on my list of things to post about here along with a couple of other things.
your husband's OOB cancer moon being in the angular 1st house IS a big deal! it's a very important part of himself, very important to the way he expresses himself.
i have a dissociated moon-mars contact with my partner - my moon (sag 27°) sextiles his mars (scorp 1°) by 4.3°. though it's not a terribly important aspect for us since it's loose and dissociated, i do like trolling the internet for information on certain synastry aspects. i've found you can get a lot of information from sites that post sample reports of celebrity couples who have the same aspects that you have with your partner.
anyway, the moon-mars aspect you share with your hubby seems particularly potent - given it's his moon involved (since his moon is so important in his chart) and given the doubling of the aspect with the declinational tie.
here is what i have found on moon-mars ties:
"Moon-Mars aspects can generate strong feelings that are often both physical and emotional at once, with the Mars person involved taking most of the initiative in the relationship, which can be very attractive to the Moon person (at least at the outset of the relationship). This combination of planets denotes a relationship that is exciting and animated. X and Y’s discussions are lively and impassioned and their shared pastimes are also likely to be energetic and fun. X and Y enjoy spontaneity and both tend to be impulsive when together. Both of them feel that their lives have become more effervescent with the advent of this relationship. X (the Moon person) is most likely to feel that Y (the Mars person) brings excitement into his/her life. X (Moon) is aware that Y’s (Mars) drive and energy contributes positively to his/her life, whereas Y (Mars) feels inspired by the relationship to achieve his/her goals. Y (Mars) acknowledges that X’s (Moon) support and understanding helps him/her to advance in life. There is also likely to be a strong sexual attraction that helps to add a little spice to life. However, this sexual attraction is most powerful when both X and Y are feeling comfortable within the association. The attraction can lose its spark when there is emotional tension."
i know it's not much, it's just a generic little blurb really, but i thought you might find that interesting.
sincerely, chrissy
