Moon in Aquarius (Kumbha):
The Socialite, comforted by networks, sensitive to connectivity, needs community. Needs to Network; a Man of the people.
Chandra-Kumbha forms supportive, equal-partner relationships with Simha-political types. Chandra-Kumbha is often found in assemblies, community events, and promoting economic achievements. Chandra-Kumbha is comfortable in large groups, holding roles such as fundraiser and cheerleader. Soma would normally prefer to partner with a politician, entertainer, creative figure. Usually Kumbha's mass-movement identity is not seeking the center-stage life, unless Shani requires it.
Kumbha = large, regulated, complex transactional systems. Kumbha's network transactions may be extremely diverse in appearance but they are all ultimately regulated by a complex set of conceptual principles. Kumbha rules the common people, the masses, the gigantic and extremely complex but indeed rule-driven network of human communications.
Chandra in Kumbha produces a special effect on the life of the person. There is an aura of secrecy about him. Soft-spoken, he easily gains another's confidence. Interested in education, fine arts, music, social organizations and political activities. As a result of these interests you gain a large number of friends and acquaintances. May become a member of secret or exclusive societies.
These people are strong, physically courageous yet passive, passionate but kind hearted. While their bodies are made for hard physical work and endurance, their lives are nearly always lived on a high mental plane and they prefer mental activity to physical endeavor.
They are intelligent, deep thinkers, and extremely logical and scientific in their thought processes. They are quite likely to make a mark in the world because of their scientific attainments, although these are more often in the research field.
They read extensively and all the metaphysical sciences attract them. Yet, they always keep both feet on the ground and do not permit their philosophical concepts to run wild, without the constant check of logical and scientific reasoning.
They are extremely scornful of convention and are considered radical in their views because of their impatience with stupid and worn out ideas. They are the pioneers of new ideas , new thought, new inventions.
Their outlook according to their opportunity and environment, is national rather than provincial, international rather than patriotic, universal and cosmic rather than terrestrial, humanitarian rather than sectarian.
They abominate doctrine or dogma, custom and tradition, and for this reason are misunderstood and subject to criticism and even contumely from their fellow men. But they remain indifferent and even joyous, being quite aware of their superiority Yet, at no time being arrogant or condescending about it.

Moon in 12:
Visionary Dreamer, invisible flow, research enclosures, familiar (Chandra) to the spirit guides (12), emotional sensitivity to invisible, private needs. Comfortably settled, nested, habituated to familiar rhythms of sanctuary, meditation, spiritual guidance, private prayer, imagination, sleep, bedroom, distant lands, invisibility, emotionally withdrawn.
Professor Chandra's special area of instruction is emotional sensitivity, absorption of feelings from the local environment, and emotional reaction or response. Chandra-12 is especially sensitive to the fluctuation of imagined feelings, or feelings which respond to clairsentiently perceived environments.
The child becomes familiarized (Chandra) early in life with the experience patterns of private spiritual guidance. Whether socially acknowledged or not, one has clairsentient sensitivity. Repetition of this familiar pattern reinforces a habitual sense of not belonging to this world.
Phenomena of bhava-12 are typically seen through a glass darkly, if seen at all. It may seem to observers that one born with sensitive, private Chandra-12 does not acknowledge one's own emotional patterns. The feelings remain segregated from the rational and physical perceptions, a habitual (Chandra) distancing from others.
