Dear Elsa.
Since I’ve been a kid, I’ve found it hard to connect with anything or anyone.
When I start a hobby, I almost immediately drop it because it’s no longer satisfying to me, or I don’t have enough talent. It’s even more difficult to connect to other people. I become so skeptical and build such high obstacles that it’s simply too difficult.
Is there anyway to open up my heart?
Wondering,
Lonely Fifteen Year Old
Dear Lonely,
First of all your heart is not flawed. In fact it’s working very well, as closed hearts do not feel pain like this. Closed hearts will deny both pain and pleasure and that’s not you. But you do have a freakishly difficult chart here and I will try to help.
You know how sometimes you hear on the news that the planets are all clustered together in the sky? They report it because it’s an anomaly. Astronomers say, “Holy crap!” because the sky is simply astonishing. When astrologers see the charts of babies born during these times, they too say, “Holy crap!”
So this is what you are. You’re an anomaly, born with SIX planets in Capricorn (early 1990’s). Because of this, I’m going to talk to you like an adult – because I know that like all Capricorns, you’re wise beyond your years.
Number one: Capricorn is fear-based. You’re plagued with insecurity, and afraid you’re not good enough. This makes virtually everything you do exceedingly difficult.
If you have trouble understanding that, just imagine being a confident person. Someone who feels supported; they might even be an ego maniac. This person is going to have a far easier time getting up in front of their class and speaking, or getting or going on a date, or just about anything else you can think of. But does this make them better than you? Probably not.
Because due to your intense struggle and hardship, you build character. Others seem to run up the hill while you struggle, but I promise you this: As you get older, you will see those same people roll down that hill. You’ll be afraid this will happen to you, but it never will.
I am telling you that your progress is slow, and your lessons are learned the hard way, but you win the race in the end.
Good luck!
I have 7 planets in capricorn and a pisces rising any insightss
Wow, this person would be at least 26 years old now. They’re headed towards their Saturn Return. I hope that their life has lighten up as they have grown older.
I was born in 1990. with stellium in both Capricorn and Sagittarius (7th December) and I totally relate to this post.
Since I was a child I was anxious, shy and mature over my age – everything I do – I doubt myself and my success, I admire people with Moon/Mars in Aries and basically people whose Mars is not R (as mine is).
I’ve been fearing the Saturn Return as it already handed me some soul-crushing life-challenging lessons in the past year (Saturn landed on Sagittarius)…
May I ask what is the Saturn return? I was born with this as well. I don’t know what it means and I am very lost. 9-30-90. Hardship, always hardship. 🙁
@Ashely The saturn return is when saturn comes back to the original sign and house placement in your chart. Everyone has saturn->tests, hardships, maturity, discipline, restrictions, structure, boundaries, in their chart placed somewhere. If you were born in the 1990 your saturn natally would be in capricorn. It’s in a domicile sign. So saturn travels through all the signs but at some point it will come back to capricorn-your sign, same house, same degree. That happens about once in approximately 29/30 years. I estimate your saturn return would have happened some time in march 2019.
Elsa’s response? I felt encouraged reading it too! Hopefully this person saw the passing of time as a coming into himself/herself, confident inside not because what they went through but because how they got up and kept climbing and becoming what they themselves always knew who they were supposed to be in the first place. ⛰️?
