the line between not going out as an act of self-care and not going out as a symptom of depression is but a gossamer thread
Really too bad that self-care has been so effectively kidnapped by like capitalism lmao bc it was formerly meant for people in empath-based and emotionally laborious roles to learn how to care for oneself in addition to professionally caring for others, not to mention to support (primarily women) those who are socialized to take on the burden of nurturing all members of their family before taking care of themselves.
It’s really sad bc women especially are raised and positioned in society to learn how to care for *literally* everybody BUT themselves — girls are taught to physically and emotionally care for family, friends, superiors and even strangers before themselves. Wanting to put themselves first & asking for help is even taught to be a “selfish” thing for women to do lol — and self-care was literally revolutionary in encouraging women to care for themselves in a way that could prevent long-term physical and emotional damage.
But like. Self-care has been so infected with consumerism and hijacked that it’s not only been totally rewritten as a “treat yourself” kind of numbing practice via goods but it’s also become a way for workplaces to put the blame back on the people in emotionally laborious and otherwise damaging job roles to take care of themselves – i.e. “learn to take care of yourself” and “be sure to take care of yourself” rather than restructuring the workplace to prevent harm. all of a sudden its OUR job to know how to self-care rather than for workplaces to better their work environments to prevent damage lol
Aries Sun, Capricorn Moon: Two Cardinal powerhouses fusing to make the native highly ambitious and potentially ruthless when it comes to climbing to the top. They will make their plans unknown and will have the ability to seamlessly make it to the top. Whoever gets in their way, beware. This is a serious and more reserved version of the Aries, which makes them seem more like a Scorpio. They are analytical, controlling and have a charm that might let others perceive them in a different light.
Taurus Sun, Capricorn Moon: This combination brings the artistic businessperson. They know what they want, they go for what they want and they have no qualms about their choices. If you thought Taurus was a stubborn sign, wait until you meet someone with this combination! It is possible to see this person thrive in all aspects because they are visionaries and their life is a vision board.
Gemini Sun, Capricorn Moon: Capricorn brings stability and somewhat of a peaceful aura to the native. Gemini and all mercury ruled people know how hard it can be to make decisions and stick to them, so the person blessed with this Moon can navigate their thought process a little more easily. They will analyze their emotions but make the choices that benefit them with a greater understanding as they get older. This combination makes for someone ambitious and calculating. Their words will be measured, and they will give the appearance of being sage like.
Cancer Sun, Capricorn Moon: A powerful force that makes for someone who is not afraid to take on the world. They are driven, with time they can become emotionally secure and have a work ethic that can be admirable. However, they can also slack off if they do not feel reassured or there is an aspect in their life that makes them feel vulnerable. This is someone who might overthink themselves and worry over the smallest of details. When they learn to trust themselves, they will be able to fulfil their goals and achieve their dreams.
Leo Sun, Capricorn Moon: A business tycoon would definitely succeed with these placements or even a politician. Leo brings the people and Capricorn gets the business done. They will be fit to handle all situations under pressure (if all other aspects allow) and they will be successful. This is the placement for someone who will be admired and remembered if they are competent and good hearted people. The ego here may feel inflated but that is because the native knows that they can be the best at anything. They adore being in the limelight and being recognized for their achievements.
Virgo Sun, Capricorn Moon: Hardworking and can become a recluse. The native might opt to work alone and be in their own little universe. This is the placement for the overachiever that does not want the limelight or crave the spotlight like the Leo combination. Here we see the drone, who will take on any challenge without complaining. They are here to get shit done and nothing can stop them. It is possible to see these people take orders from others easily and excel because they might not trust or believe that they too can take on the leadership positions. When the Virgo Sun native learns to embrace themselves, they can easily take on management positions.
Libra Sun, Capricorn Moon: If anyone with this combination wants to get into the legal field, this is a wise idea. This placement makes the native headstrong and focused. If they have a Libra or even a Scorpio Mercury, it will make their words as sweet as candy or sharp as a knife; either way, it makes for a powerful and formidable opponent. Here we see the valedictorian or the employee of the month.
Scorpio Sun, Capricorn Moon: Scorpios are generally either loved or despised. Someone with a Capricorn Moon and Scorpio Sun will enhance the qualities of a Scorpio that make them infamous. They will not be trusting or as forgiven. This is someone who will not forget when they have been hurt. However, they will be more business oriented and minded. For the native, getting what they want will come first which will make them appear ruthless to others. This is someone who fears no one but might fear themselves and what they are capable of. Overall, they need to fight those inner demons and allow their hearts to melt more in order to successfully thrive as they get older.
Sagittarius Sun, Capricorn Moon: This is a moon sign that is perfect for the native. The free spirited Sagittarius will have to ground themselves and learn how to act like an adult from an early age. This allows them to be centered as they get older and not live life as spontaneously. Of course, they will still party hard and play but they will learn the value of hard work. This is someone who will go through a lot in their lives and as they get older they will obtain the benefits of their struggle. Success is easy for this placement, especially in the later years. They will be adored, admired and even envied.
Capricorn Sun, Capricorn Moon: This is the epitome of the child of Saturn. Life is not easy and nothing has come easy for them. They will learn the art of the hustle from early on and they will learn to fight for what they want. This placement can make the native an egomaniac as they get older and attain more success. They will easily wear a mask that allows them to blend in with whoever they are with. No one will know or understand their intentions because they can be secretive (especially if the native has a Scorpio or Capricorn Rising). Driven to leave their mark in the world, this is someone who cannot be held down.
Aquarius Sun, Capricorn Moon: Another child of Saturn but here we see the revolutionary side of the Sun being restricted by the Moon. This Aquarius would prefer to be more “traditional” and will not be as impulsive or free spirited. They will adapt the traits of the Capricorn, working hard and forcing their way to the top. Of course, the difference here is that with the Sun in Aquarius, they can tap into the Uranian qualities; they can still revolt and will want their independence, but it will not be as pronounced as someone with Uranian energy. Here we have a dichotomy but at the same time there is a similar energy intertwined into this person.
Pisces Sun, Capricorn Moon: Pisces will take on the hardworking aspects of the Capricorn. They will have Piscean daydreaming type qualities but when it comes to completing tasks, they will go for it. Work is not an issue for the native, they welcome it. However, they can be very stubborn and if they are Pisces dominant, they will need to learn to be more analytical and willing to accept other arguments because they might even come across as close minded. Overall, the native will be charming, exciting and filled with buoyancy because Pisces is ruled by Neptune and Jupiter, so those traits will be hard to dismiss.
