Aries Moon: control your jealousy and your possessiveness and you will have it all, but to control it first accept that there is this side to you, you can be the most loving person in the world but if you try to control your friends and lovers because of this love, it will only hurt everyone involved
Taurus Moon: consistency and tradition is nice, but changing things aren’t always going to hurt you, maybe you should try that new coffee shop your friends have been telling you to go to, your favorite old cafe will always be there, there’s nothing wrong with being careful but being too careful could stop you from becoming your best self
Gemini Moon: people may think you are just a meme who has no emotions at all, but you know that’s not all there is to you, you theorize your emotions and that’s completely fine, but talk to people, open up to others about how you are honestly feeling, even if you think they might not understand, because you may feel detached but those emotions are there and they can keep building up until you explode
Cancer Moon: you are so smart but please get off your bed for once, leave your house, and talk to people, you don’t get to quietly observe everything, never making the first move to talk to others and then say you’re lonely and no one likes you, because you’re the one not giving people the chance to know you
Leo Moon: you are special and you deserve everything, but accept that not everything is about you, work on being self-aware and how you come off to others because you must accept that you can be selfish, and in order to get the love you deserve, you have to be willing to return that love and attention
Virgo Moon: you are so loving, but god stop being so nitpicky, yes you don’t want anything less than perfection but not everyone thinks the way you do and you need to accept that you can’t expect your loved ones to change for you, and you can’t always expect yourself to change either so stop being so damn hard on yourself, look at the situations you are in rationally and adopt a positive mindset, that may sound crazy but it will help so much
Libra Moon: you are the sweetest thing in the world and you have amazing focus, but learn to be independent, learn to do things, to go places, to just enjoy life alone and it will take you so far, wanting to be around people is completely acceptable but by being able to regulate your need to be around people, by developing less emphasis on partnerships, you will grow so much
Scorpio Moon: you are insane and you know this, but that doesn’t mean you have to accept it, when your emotions drive you wild please turn to someone, talk to someone you trust and love, even if it seems like they can’t do anything for you a part of you appreciates having the company so stop self-sabotaging, but also figure out the roots to these feelings and accept that they’re there and really work on them, your emotions are intense but intense doesn’t have to be bad
Sagittarius Moon: you are so worldly but you know you play favorites, and it’s completely understandable but be careful not to hurt others when you prioritize people, and you are so honest and it’s not for everyone, don’t inhibit yourself but remember some people are emotional and you can definitely be friends with emotional people, but you have to make the conscious effort to understand them
Capricorn Moon: you are so mature, but you are also so immature and you need to understand that not everyone is against you, people aren’t always consciously deciding to misunderstand you or hurt you in any way, so try to see where your loved ones are coming from as well, be empathetic and understanding of others and you’ll go so far but first, stop thinking only of yourself
Aquarius Moon: you are one of kind but you are so stubborn and in the long run, it’s not going to fly, because you are human and sometimes you are wrong, if you continue to think that you are always right, you won’t grow from your mistakes and you will not be your best self
Pisces Moon: you are beautiful inside and out, but you need to learn to control your emotions and that while you are very kind, you aren’t always the victim, stop thinking that people are doing you wrong because that’s not always the case and you can lose so much because of this
He whom love touches not walks in darkness.

Avoiding situations that I get negative feelings about
All too well
Hello family! Let’s do another journal Prompt!
This one is going a little further regarding self reflection and noticing some unhealthy habits or behaviors that affect you negatively. I remind that you use these prompts with caution and to reach out to your support system if needed for extra support.
1. Describe the top 3 lessons that you have learned the hard way: these could be small lessons or large lessons which ever ones that impacted your life the most. Go into detail if you need to.
2. Describe the top 5 negative habits or behaviors you wish to change or understand? Negative behaviors could be; being quick to anger, self destructive habits, talking poorly about others, etc.
3. Are you afraid of being yourself in front of others? Are there certain people whom you don’t feel comfortable being yourself around? Why? This is the time to reflect who you surround yourself with and who makes you feel uncomfortable being your most authentic self. Explore the reasons behind why you feel this way. Is it worth having them in your life if you cannot practice being yourself? Or how can you be comfortable being yourself around these people?
4. Are you projecting your habits onto others without realizing it? Sometimes when we hurt or we are upset/uncomfortable/ don’t like something about ourselves we take our unwanted feelings or emotions and attributing them onto someone else. Usually an example would be; a cheating spouse would accuse the other of cheating, a friend betraying and accuse the other of betraying, a person lying and accuse the other of lying, etc.
I am not a licensed professional, however my inbox is open if anyone needs additional support during their healing journey. Please use this as a caution, everyone has different traumas they are healing from and effects us differently, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Cleanse your phone after an argument or after some other technology based nastiness:
Restart your phone
Play a song through your phone’s speakers (something happy that you like, or something more "banishing" like Hit The Road Jack or Bye Bye Bye. Whatever makes you feel it’s done it’s job)

“I get really angry at people who are mean to other people. Isn’t life hard enough without people making it worse for each other? I think the people who do, who set out to make others feel bad, feel bad and alone themselves and they don’t want to feel alone, so they make other people feel bad. So they’ll just feel bad but also maybe, not so alone.”
