calling all cap moons

Understanding Capricorn Moon Emotions and Reactions

Capricorn Moons tend to be reserved and prefer genuine expressions of emotion. They may feel irritated by exaggerated displays of attention as they value authenticity. Recognizing this can help you navigate your reactions and better understand your emotional responses. It's normal to seek sincerity and avoid superficial emotional displays based on your Capricorn Moon traits.

hey fellow dxp cap mooners, I wanted to ask you a question regarding our moon. So whenever someone puts on a dramatic "display" of attention, I feel as though its fake for some reason, and it kind of irritates me. I'm not outwardly emotional, and I know everyone doesn't react the way I do, but too much is so...bleh. its gross (not saying the concept is....but thats just my instant emotional reaction to it) Does any other cap moon feel this way?

Overly emotional displays romantically make me feel smothered and/or uncomfortable.
Non-romantically, it still makes me uncomfortable. I want to slap them and tell them to get their act together and control themselves. You can't make rational decisions when you're reacting emotionally.

As empathatic as I try to be, it still makes me uncomfortable.

Yes, I want real contact and I see right through fakeness, sometimes not a good experience for the other but well, I can't help it unfortunately. I feel like a cold motherfucker sometimes.

Oh and a question to you people!

Do you get uncomfortable with people touching you too?

I notice that my friends all hug and touch each other (in a friendly no homo way) and I never engage in that too. Only in love I'm very 'touchy'.

Yeah, in private and with a lover, anything goes. But in public, even watching other people flirt with each other makes me uncomfortable. I do have a temper and let it fly sometimes, damn who's around. But usually, everything is well under control.

I used to hate being snuggled as a kid. It felt confining and I felt guilty because I knew I was supposed to like it but didn't.

Depends on who it is. My bf, friends, family I don't mind.

I wanted to say something about this too, I was waiting for someone to say it! I never wanted my parents to touch me, such a weird kid.. Lol

it depends. If it's some random person I don't know and the touch is too in my face, I won't react, but I will feel a little weirded out, and my first impression of you definitely won't be great. If it was a touch of the shoulder, I wouldn't mind. For eg. Today I was picking up my pisces friend from the store she owns, and I was in the neighbourhood, so I thought ok I'll drop her home, and she was still with a customer when I got there. This guy was talking to her, and he was trying on perfumes/colognes..I was minding my own business, and all of a sudden he just stuck his hand a millimeter away from my face and said smell this (after he presumably tried a sample of cologne). I mean he DID smell good with it on, and I was still polite to him, but things like that irritate me because I don't know you and you just got into my space. Not only did I find that extremely rude, but I felt like he was invading my personal space.

I don't doubt that it's genuinely the innate nature of some people to behave like that but with the exception of those I'm very close to or the very rare occasion, that kind of behavior just cools my own behavior. I haven't really thought about it, but I guess like others here I find it uncomfortable and awkward. I don't assume that they're fake, because I have people like that in my life who've always been that way and while it's annoying with the older ones, I'm just used to it, but don't care for that kind of behavior in none-family relations.

yeah I understand that..Im an aries sun, and I have fire in my chart too, so I get that not everyone is quiet or one particular way, but it still irks me. I don't think the person is necessarily fake, but I feel like displaying too much all at once isn't going to solve how you feel, and it's just.....I'll be brutally honest, sometimes I just feel like slapping the person back to reality and telling he/she to stfu and think clearly. I know that sounds harsh, but thats how I feel sometimes, especially when I don't think it's genuine.

I used to be that way. But that way is old and insecure. I have no time anymore to judge people that DO NOT have a direct impact on my life. If it conflicts with a goal, I will adjust the situation accordingly.

I now understand that there are people that are more emotional than logical and can accept that. A evolved person KNOWS HOW TO BALANCE BOTH in private and in public...

The title of this thread should be "How can I overcome judging people that are different than myself?"

I was referring to a direct emotional reaction to certain situations, that isn't necessarily judgmental, but you're entitled to your opinion. Random internet people that think they know others LOL at that. calm down.

Next you will tell me that emotions reactions cannot be controlled— If any other Cap moons feel the same, please speak up!

I am teaching you HOW TO BEAT YOUR MOON!!! If I didn't care, I would have not said nothing... Calm down? I did not speak in CAPS! lol

If you want to master your emotions, you must change your beliefs. Beliefs are the foundation of logic and emotions. If you have NEGATIVE BELIEFS, logically you would want to leave or hate something nor care to understand it, or emotionally feel uncomfortable or insecure, both balancing out to JUSTIFY YOUR BELIEF.

You're looking for similarities in our moon sign. I strive to change it and show others the way!

I can understand emotions, I can understand strong emotions. I can understand lavish displays of attention or finding ways to get attention.

But if you try to guilt trip me? Fuck that bullshit.

You can keep your emotions as long as they're yours and affect you alone. The moment you try to impose your feelings on my own freedoms, I get very annoyed and sometimes quite defensive. I am very emotional already, which is why guilt trips are likely to work and I realize that, when done with controlling intentions (as they often are), they are quite dangerous to my well being. So, no, I won't be having any of that.

your moon represents how you deal with things on an emotional level. Capricorn moons are known to appear unemotional. The placements in the planets is how you project yourself, and the houses is your conscious.

You guys are so interesting. That's the planetary placement I'm most fascinated by. I feel so awkward around Capricorn moons. And it turned out I knew many before even getting into astrology. I find women with this placement very nice to be around, they're a pleasant company despite the awkward moments. With men awkwardness is the general ambient, not just moments. 😄 I'm too cautious with my reactions and I don't really know how to act around them. I feel like the Capricorn moon thinks sometimes that I'm being silly and would give you a sarcastic comment or change subject instead. I prefer that than others who just respond to your bullshit with fake excitement. Well, who knows what's going on in their Cap moon heads.

i dont know why...

but i found my mother very emotional. she cries too, but cries alone in her room. we have to comfort her alot when that happens.

she does have alot of Scorpio. She also has ALOT of "Martyr" complex kind of personality. I love my mother alot. we all love her, but there's a strong martyr-ship about her. very very sacrificial, loving woman who doesn't get the credit she deserves.

Just the other day, tears got in my eyes how we talked about mom going blind (she has bad eye sight) so she had surgery a couple times on her eyes.

and how in her early years when we were growing up she was an excellent cleaner, the house spic and span and beautifully shined; she left nothing untouched everything in order. Now with her eyes so bad, she can't see much and has a hard time cleaning because of her eyes.
It tears me up inside.

And it feels like no one ever gives my mother credit for all the hard work she has ever done. we take so much advantage of our mothers and don't appreciate them. 😢

love to mothers.
