Your Pisces Moon: what you need to feel safe
With the Moon in Pisces, you absorb the moods around you like a sponge. You are tender, imaginative and moved by music, stories and other people's pain. You need regular quiet to work out which feelings are yours. Without it you can feel drained for no clear reason. Gentle people, creative outlets and kind boundaries help you stay open without being worn out.
Your Capricorn Rising: how people first see you
Capricorn Rising looks poised and capable from the first meeting. People see someone serious, mature and in control, often older than their years. You choose your words and clothes with care and keep your private life private. Strangers trust you with responsibility quickly. They are often surprised, later, by how dry and funny you are once you relax.
