Capricorn: Learning to love yourself

(Source: enchantedbytheuniverse)

thethingsthatpeoplesay422 Asked: What is a Virgo man like if he is in love?

He has a skip in his step. He is the type who is truly awoken by love. He doesn’t quite realize just how much of a romantic he is once it happens. Everything seems a little bit brighter and awesome in his world. Usually he can be very matter-of-fact, but love changes him and causes him to stop and take stock of his life. Love has a transformative effect on all of the signs, but Virgo is most visible because it brings something new to the table that isn’t within their control. Love for Virgo’s and especially Virgo men is a way to connect to themselves on a deeper level. He will have a more talkative side seen by friends and family. Though these changes won’t be visually over the top, they ARE apparent and it’s truly beautiful. 

Virgo: Learning to love yourself

luffy-no-haki Asked: My biggest struggle as a Taurus, is my love of indulgence, with food especially... :x Any tips for this?

*I am so happy to get a bunch of Taureans on my page these days xoxo*

Well, this is pretty standard for most born under the sign of Taurus because you DO enjoy the indulgences of life. To get a better handle on it is to literally STEP BACK, and assess how much you NEED what you’re about to eat, buy, do, etc. Are you eating/buying because it serves a purpose or is it “just because”? 

Seriously ask yourself these questions and do so slowly and patiently, because if you answer it in a way like: “Uh yeah I do because all of my coats are out of style/ratty/old” or “Yeah, I love pizza, what’s the point of living if I can’t enjoy it?”  YOU NEED TO FURTHER ASSESS. If you truly need a new something, get a LONG-LASTING NICE SOMETHING that won’t tempt you to want to buy another a month later. If you’re GENUINELY hungry, for god’s sake, eat the pizza, but don’t eat it if you think you’re missing out on one of life’s pleasures.

Over time, by limiting excess you will appreciate your indulgences even more because it will be a TREAT, not just another day. And trust me, for a Taurus, you will learn to cultivate this talent and build up beautiful collections of things and open your mind to other foods that fulfill you differently. You have that innate ability, it just needs extra thought and refinement.

burninginfinity Asked: My biggest struggle being a Taurus is dealing with excessive jealousy problems. Pretty much everything relating to my relationship can make me at least a little jealous :/

Taurus is definitely a possessive sign, and this always gets misinterpreted as literal possessions all the time (this is valid, but there should be less emphasis on the exoteric and more on the esoteric). 

Taureans enjoy control. Not in the way some of the other signs do, but in a way that takes pride of who and what is closest to them. They form attachments easily and can be quite jealous if they aren’t held in the type of regard that they hold for others. Taurus is a sign capable of great loyalty and is incredibly dependable when it comes to being a good friend and partner. Because they provide this with no questions asked, it can become very taxing on their souls if they begin to get taken advantage of. Their fuse is very long and will put up with a lot of crap before they snap (very similar to Pisces). 

The best way to handle jealousy is to make sure it is in fact justified and not fed through inferiority from yourself. As romantic as it may be to “have” someone, the fact of the matter is you don’t. Lovers and friends aren’t property, no matter how close you are. People have their own free will and you cannot take that away from them. There will be people out there who will share your view, and there will be many who won’t. 

Always communicate as openly as you can in relationships when you’re feeling jealous. Think twice before you act on a jealous feeling to make sure that you have a reason to worry or feel a loss of control. The only thing you CAN control in a relationship is your actions. This is the MOST important lesson to learn here.

Taurus: Learning to love yourself

Learning to love the Virgo in you:

Why you should love Virgo in your birth chart, and how to make the most of it:

• Calculating, driven, and perfection. You will strive for the best and to be the best. While it can be tiresome, you can learn to always accept and understand your worth. You will learn your own value.
• The people who enter your lives will be worthwhile ones. A prominent Virgo placement can sometimes make it hard on letting new people in (which I think is what you’re feeling), but by easing up in social situations (just smile and treat people how you would want to be treated if you were “new” or meeting new people), the people who stick around will usually be loyal, fun, and long-lasting.
• With Virgo in your chart, not everyone is paying as close attention to shyness or pressure as your are. This is a gift and a curse in respect to the sign of Virgo; your attention to detail sets you apart, but can cause you to exude a nervous energy. No one is going to be as hard on yourself as YOU, so remember to ease up on yourself and treat yourself as if you were your best friend. Changing how you are in social situations won’t happen overnight, but by taking small steps to make others feel welcomed around you can lead you to feeling LOADS more comfortable around people.
• Shyness is OKAY, but don’t let it debilitate you. Unfortunately, there isn’t an easy way to battle shyness. But it helps to hold your life in perspective: this is your life, and you don’t want to wake up 10 or 20 years from now and think about all the chances you haven’t taken, or people you wish was in your life because you didn’t put yourself in situations that allowed you to grow. This is a really important life secret: if you don’t feel scared or uncomfortable about new stuff from time to time, you’re going to miss out on a lot in life. Growth and positive change stems from stepping outside of your comfort zone.

At the heart of it all, just remember that the more you LIKE yourself, the more OTHER people will feel comfortable around you, and you will feel LESS weary and cold. Not everyone is meant to be bubbly and outgoing! Not everyone feels energized in social situations. We all have our own special gifts and talents, and as long as you’re a decent human being who isn’t a total twat, life will work out for you.

Anonymous Asked: Are Moon in Taurus people jealous? And do they hold grudges for a long time?

They can be in both regards. Taurus has a hard time letting go and they feel a sense of ownership over those that enter their life. When hurt or when their trust is broken, it takes them a while to move past it, even if appearances suggest otherwise. Your Moon placement is to never be ignored and influences your feelings and your most instinctual side of yourself. Therefore, it’s beneficial to read traits from your Moon sign and apply them to your personality as you would your Sun sign.

Anonymous Asked: okay I really love this blog, and your facts are A+! could you tell me how a capricorn would usually act when they are jealous?

Oh, that’s so awesome! I am so glad you enjoy the blog :)

Normally, Capricorn’s only get jealous unless they have a need to be, usually when something that “belongs” to them is being threatened or taken away. They are quite possessive signs, but it’s hardly out of control, unless other planet placements emphasize this. 

Usually, they will do detective work (very much like a Scorpio) and see if they truly have a need to be jealous, and they rarely act out of control, instead, they are composed and somewhat manipulative about it, depending on the context of what they’re jealous about. If it’s in a relationship, they will bring out every logical reason why they have to be jealous, and leave the other person rather speechless because if the other person tries to lie or pull the wool over their eyes (it can happen, but not for long), they can sense the bullshit and call them out on it—then it will NOT be pretty. They have no problem cutting ties and burning those bridges if they are directly disrespected-and that’s how they feel when put in the position of feeling jealous. They do not want to be made a fool.
