Tomorrow will be better
This Moon rarely stays down for long. However bad things are, some part of you expects them to improve, and that hope is a real source of strength. It gets you through the redundancy and the breakup and the bad year, often with a good story about it by the end.
The difficulty comes when someone else is hurting. Sitting with pain is uncomfortable for you, so you offer a bigger picture: everything happens for a reason, you’ll laugh about this later, have you thought about moving? You mean it kindly, but it can leave the other person feeling they aren’t allowed to be sad in front of you.
Open doors
Feeling hemmed in is what upsets you most. A relationship feels safe when you know you could go, and that knowledge is often what lets you stay. Plans made for you, questions about where you’ve been and evenings set in stone can start to feel like walls, even when they’re well meant. You may get restless, then snappy, and only later work out what was wrong.
The same goes for your own feelings. When they get heavy, you may physically leave, by going for a long drive or disappearing into a new interest. Getting some distance can truly help, as long as you come back and finish the conversation.
Honest to a fault
You tend to say what you believe, and you can’t always see where it lands. “I never liked that haircut” is, to you, just information. Being straight with people is a kindness you’d want for yourself, so check first whether a person wants your view or only your company.
If you’re close to this Moon, give it adventures to share and freedom you don’t make it apologize for. Don’t take the blunt remark too much to heart, and do tell them when it stung. They’ll usually be mortified. When you need them to stop fixing your mood, say so: “I don’t need a plan tonight. Just stay here.” Most of them can do it once they’re told that’s the job.
