Today at 12:58 PM PT, the Moon entered Capricorn, grounding us with steady, serious energy. This lunar transit invites us to reflect on our emotional foundations with structure, discipline, and realism. Capricorn doesn’t shy away from hard truths—it holds space for commitment, boundaries, and the kind of love that builds slowly over time. It’s a time when emotional maturity rises to the surface, and we’re asked to get clear about what truly matters in the long run.

As the Moon moves through Capricorn, sign of long-term commitment and emotional responsibility, it’s a powerful time to explore your synastry chart. Synastry helps us understand the deeper dynamics between two people: where we meet, where we challenge, and where we grow. Today’s transit encourages us to take love seriously, to understand its architecture, and to build with intention.

For a long time, I convinced myself that I didn’t want love, not the traditional kind. I built a narrative around independence, freedom, and detachment, and wore it like armor. I told myself I didn’t believe in fairytales, didn’t need roses or rings, and definitely didn’t want the softness that came with depending on someone.

But today, under this Capricorn Moon, I found myself asking… Why? Why did I spend so much time declaring I didn’t want something so many others seemed to find comfort in?

And as I sat with that question, a quieter voice whispered something I hadn’t considered: Maybe it wasn’t about not wanting love. Maybe it was about fearing how deeply I did.

Fear has a funny way of dressing up as certainty. It convinces us we’re in control when we’re really just protecting ourselves from disappointment. Capricorn energy asks us to look past the surface and into the structures we’ve built, what walls are holding us together, and which ones are keeping others out?

This isn’t about suddenly craving a white-picket fence. It’s about realizing that love, real, intentional, present love, requires a kind of strength and stability we often deny ourselves. And maybe we’ve been taught that vulnerability is weakness, when in reality, it’s the bridge to everything we truly desire.

Capricorn reminds us that love isn’t just a feeling. It’s a choice, a structure, a foundation we build over time. It takes effort and courage to admit we want it, even more to make space for it, and even more to trust it when it arrives.

So today, I’m no longer saying I don’t want love. I’m saying I want the kind of love that lasts, not despite the fear, but through it. The kind that holds you when life is heavy. The kind you can grow into. And maybe, the kind I was always too afraid to believe I deserved.
