Air signs (Gemini, Libra, Aquarius) all operate from a cerebral, “surface” space when talking to strangers and associates. They never get too deep with those they don’t trust.
Air signs have some of the most engrained, subconscious trust issues because of the subtle cues that were in their environment when younger that told them “don’t be too open”.
When growing up, air signs have parents who have a low tolerance for things that “don’t make sense”. Their parents didn’t do well with emotional outbursts, emotional displays or emotional neediness. All things that are natural for children to do.
Because of this, air signs have learned to very strategically disassociate from their emotions JUST enough for it to not cause them to feel out of control because they were taught that it’s a BIG no no to lose control of your emotions.
Gemini-
Gemini grows up around a lot of conversations. A lot of talking, arguing, serious “talks” and joking. Gemini is also left to their own emotional devices on how to PROCESS the emotions that come with words. This wasn’t very highlighted in their childhood.
Gemini also witness a lot of “reactions” over controlled responses. This makes Gemini feel uneasy and anxious in regards to emotions, emotional people and emotional situations.
So Gemini has learned that the best way to deal with emotions is to make themselves busier so that they can be distracted from heavy shit they need to process.
This causes Gemini to appear to be “happy” or “ok” even if everything is falling a part because they don’t want to be viewed or judged as being an annoyance for having negative emotions.
Libra-
There’s a few things. First, Libra doesn’t give a shit if they offend you after they know what you’re capable of. Libra wants people to like them NOT for approval, but to protect themselves.
Libra grows up around adults where they’ve seen how BAD things could go when you get on someone’s bad side. At least one of their parents or immediate family members are spiteful. Libra see’s the harsh “punishments” that comes with dislike so they try to be on people’s good side.
Libra has had to play the “mature” one as a child more often than not. Libra could’ve grown up around angry or irrational people with very little emotional intelligence.
This has caused Libra to feel like they need to “do it on their own” because they didn’t really receive emotional support or solutions during times of crisis as children.
This causes them to feel anxiety when needed to trust or rely on someone else to help them solve a personal issue in their life. So they don’t unless someone bulldozes their way into being of assistance lol
Because of this, Libra learns to compartmentalize their emotions and deals with issues logically first and will feel the emotions when they feel like they have the space to.
This causes Libra to be a “faker” when it comes to how they present themselves to the world. They want to be seen as being “ok” so people will leave them alone to their own methods of coping so that they don’t have the anxiety of needing to trust someone past their comfort level
Aquarius-
So we all know the universal (last 4) signs grow up in a distant household. Everyone has their own life, their own bubble and their own problems.
These things don’t really crossover into “share with family” territory because Aquarius usually grows up in a household where there’s a lack of empathy.
Aquarius then picks up a subconscious view that people lack empathy and nobody really cares about their problems anyway which makes them very defensive.
Aquarius subconsciously assumes that they’ll get attacked for expressing themselves so they usually take a offensive or defensive stance over being open when trying to express anything. Opinions, feelings, thoughts.
Aquarius then relies on their “smarts” to relate and connect to people because it’s the one thing that can’t be refuted, similar to Sagittarius placements.
Aquarius will let people know how they feel, but it’s rarely in a way which shows any vulnerability because Aquarius thinks the world and society is a shitty place and rarely anything good comes from it.

Sagittarius sun rising and moon have some of the most complex effects from their upbringing and the cause is always imbalanced, absent or toxic male family members. It creates such an internal and external struggle with power dynamics and it’s very challenging to correct
The abusive qualities that Sagittarius ruled males see from the males in their family is usually extreme in one form or the other & the mom is often passive, permissive or powerless. This creates a lot of anger towards their parents & internalized resentment towards masculinity
Sagittarius ruled women basically get the message that men are the weakest link through their inadequacies that overshadow any strengths present. Sagittarius ruled women subconsciously feel like they need to reduce their power to allow men to shine it in a relationship
Yes we visited the county and got a tour where the Nat Turner Revolt happened and they even turned us into lampshades. This is where picnics came from. Pick a n*gger where they tortured us, hung us, ate us and skinned us.
Scorpio Full Moon is all about letting go of the things that are holding you back from transforming into the next stage of “you”. This is a time where we get the courage to move past stagnant energy and the sense of control that comfort gives us.
Scorpio Full Moon Challenges us to look fear in its face & move past the illusions it creates. We need to rebirth, grow, release & take out power back from any ways we’ve self sabotaged, self discouraged and remained in a space where we can play it “safe” while feeling miserable
You know... I feel like Capricorn’s would actually meet most of their goals if they would make peace with failure. It’s the avoidance of failure that makes them oftentimes miss their peak successes.
I think that it was drilled into Capricorn’s heads as children that they need to fear failure. Whether it was through extreme consequences for not doing something right or their parents just telling them failure isn’t an option, they’ve been conditioned to fear failing.
The only thing is that failing is a way to learn. Capricorn’s emotionally view failure as an ultimate end. But this is completely mental.
Libra and Capricorn both have a need to be in control of their relationships. Let’s start there lol.
Libra and Capricorn both know HOW they want their relationships to go, HOW they want others to perceive them and HOW the mu expect others to act. They reason it in two different ways.
So there’s something I wanted to touch on. Everything that we learn comes from either example or experience with the authority figures from our childhood. Whenever you’re trying to build self awareness, the first step is to honesty with yourself.
What are you doing are you doing at the core of your actions without any excuses on top of them? Getting right to the core is a skill you’ll have to build. We’re taught to dodge accountability as a method of self protection.
But we have to learn how to take accountability because it’s a core mode of operating when building self discipline and self awareness. You cannot drive a car efficiently without knowing how it operates. You can’t get far in a car that needs an oil change or a new engine etc
