Capricorn can sometimes tend towards seeing the negatives before the positives. Whilst it is important to accept that sometimes there are difficulties in life, we always have a choice in how we respond to these events; even if they are tragic, painful or upsetting.
Sometimes life speaks to us through a veil of challenging circumstances. The universe whispers ‘you are stronger than you think you are.’ Sometimes we get tired of ‘being strong’ but it’s in these moments that we know that the only way out is onwards and upwards. When times are tough, listen to your higher self, ask for guidance, find support in the real world, be grateful for what remains. Sometimes what seems like the end of the world now can become a defining moment of heroic proportions in the future.
