....that is going through "dark" stuff at the moment. And as WE (not him) all know, Pluto is in Capricorn. I have dealt with this *^*&$*^>< for quite a while now, having Moon in Cap (sq Pluto), and Sun (sq Pluto), Ceres, Saturn, Venus, Mercury in Cancer. It's been HARD to say the least but I have looked "within" and know what needs to be changed. However, I have no clue how to help him! I think it is something he will have to go through alone, no? I mean, I will be there, of course, but I can't show him the way, right?He has a Scorpio Moon and Pluto (8H). Sun, Saturn, Neptune, Mercury and Uranus in Cap (10H) IP: Logged |

Interesting...my Cappy friend is in a dark place as well..he seems to not be receptive to anyones help right now. I am tired of banging my head against the wall, so I have surrendered. You know how Cappy's are...on their own time.....IP: Logged |

Hey Charlie. I'm a Cap sun/rising/Neptune and a Scorpio moon/venus/pluto. So here is my input. Purely from my experience. It's always been dark. I had always assumed that it was like that for others too. I don't like advice at all unless I ask for it. In fact I will start to instinctually close off and push away with my energy. It's something I do naturally. For me, it is very helpful just to know that there is someone there for me who will support me. (Not enable me or let me off the hook if I'm being self destructive however.) It's tough. I hate asking for help and will go through a lot of suffering instead of doing so. So being there for him is what he needs. Maybe reminding him of it occasionally and also letting him know of your own journeys into the darkness, your vulnerabilities, your weaknesses. IP: Logged |

I think Pluto's transit has been hard on us Caps. When Pluto went over my Venus at 29 Sagittarius, and Sun at 5 Capricorn, I was in an almost 'Fatal Attraction' type scenario with an unwanted admirer. The sense of helplessness and distress got to me at times. I've since escaped that situation by moving. Pluto can really put you through a ringer.IP: Logged |

It's nice that you care enough. I'll bet your friend picks up on that...despite popular opinion, most Caps are very intuitive.I think Caps know that our heavy moods can really weigh others down, yet we don't ever want to actively subject another person to our inner demons, if you will. So we tend to cloister ourselves a bit when working through these hard times. What I love, and I cannot emphasize this enough, is knowing there are people I can count on who won't just abandon me if I become unresponsive or difficult/dead serious for a while. I am so grateful for certain friends who have stuck by me through thick and thin. And I will gladly repay the favor if they ever need it. Simply put I think Caps need both freedom and assurance that their friends won't just bail on them. So if you check in once in a while, that's enough. Simple email, phone call, nothing deep...just "I'm still here." That's what helps me..obviously, I can't guarantee all Caps are the same. IP: Logged |
