Moon in Capricorn

18 July 1940, 12:00, Los Angeles, CA, USA

A reading speaks to the person it was written for, so this one talks to James as “you”.

The position of the Moon is a very important point of one's personal horoscope. In contrast to the Sun, the Moon travels much faster. It makes the entire path through 12 signs in one Moon cycle (which lasts approximately 28 days) and so changes its influence much more quickly. However, because of its size and proximity, its influence is the strongest for some individuals.

The Moon in personal horoscope presents your subconscious self, your emotions and sensations. Its position describes how you react on a subconscious and intuitive level.

Of course the Moon position acts completely differently on someone who has the Sun in Aries that on someone who has the Sun in Cancer. That is why it's important that you keep other analyses in mind when reading the horoscope and try to harmonize all of them.

Moon in Capricorn

You are a very ambitious person. You are serious, reliable and responsible. You have trouble relaxing and trusting, because you think you can take best care of yourself. You don't like others interfering and meddling in your systems of doing things.

You have a very individualistic nature and you are sometimes difficult, because you expect others to follow your system, which is, understandably, the best and (most) perfected one. You have difficulty letting anything to chance. You always want to be the one pulling all the strings. You find it difficult to be in subordinate position and it is clear you want to have everything under control and are usually successful doing that.

You worry too much

You need to develop intuition, sentimentality and softness. You need a lot of love and attention, which were probably lacking in your childhood or you thought you had to fight for them with your own efforts.

You are definitely a person who makes things harder for yourself, because you don't bear defeat well. You have outstanding physical abilities, you don't resist nor fear intense exertion. You find it hard to relax.

Contact with soil and trees is very good for you. You love being near the water, because it refreshes you. You need a lot of peace, because you take a lot of interest in yourself. You like good, energetic food, full of vitamins, and should eat a lot of red or orange colored food (beads, carrots, cherries, plums, peaches, melons, etc.) and food containing minerals (mostly Ca, Fe and Mg). You may have problems with your spine, bones, teeth or eyes, but once you outgrow these problems, you strengthen and firm your body.
