4 Zodiacs Who Need To Go Back To The Beginning To Find Closure

CANCER

Cancer, your disenchantment with the world is no surprise at such a tumultuous moment. Things are nothing like you expected them to be, and in order to move forward firmly rooted in your own reality, you have to go back to the beginning and acknowledge where and how these expectations first took shape. Were you taught to see the world in a certain way? Were you told to expect certain things and not others? Positive or negative, there is no avoiding our own innocence and ignorance as children. What you grew up understanding and believing is the product of what the adults around you chose to disclose and distill. If the world moved and changed faster than their understanding of it, you can’t be expected to shoulder all the blame for your own disappointment. But you can forgive them for not being fortune tellers, release those false predictions to the wind, and focus on your next step in this moment, now.

LIBRA

Libra, contrary to popular opinion, you weren’t born in tree pose. Something propelled you toward this lifelong obsession with achieving perfect balance. So what was it exactly that threw you off your axis in the first place? What event rocked your equilibrium so hard you swore you’d never bend or stretch far enough to risk a fall again? It’s in that search, and in that acknowledgement and acceptance that you will find your closure. Putting away the facade of perfection and making space for the pain and fear that have been guiding you for so long will allow you to make room for other feelings – like passion, joy, and curiosity. You can unlock this hidden potential when you mourn the failure that scared you away from trying again. From taking risks and following your heart and doing what felt good instead of what felt safe. When you heal those wounds you open a path forward to the future.

CAPRICORN

Capricorn, you have been working so hard, head down, without coming up for air for months, and going back to the beginning for you means asking yourself what it originally was you started working this hard for? How long ago did you achieve that goal only to increase instead of slow your pace? What have you sacrificed and left behind in the name of an unrelenting work ethic? It’s only when you allow yourself to see how far beyond the goal post you’ve arrived that you can ask yourself when you stopped being able to feel fulfillment, when you stopped being able to feel that ‘enough’ is enough. If you’re honest with yourself you haven’t felt any of the satisfaction or success you thought would come as a result of working yourself to the bone, which begs the question, what was this all really for in the first place? When it becomes apparent that you already have it, the question becomes what is driving you to continue?

ARIES

Aries, you are a fighter, a defender, and a warrior. Going back to the beginning means asking yourself where your loyalties and allegiances stem from. Why did you decide to carry someone else’s banner or fight their fight? Was it out of admiration or gratitude? Selflessness or loneliness? Fear or guilt? When the people you’ve thrown your hat in with turn out to not live up to your expectations, you have to go back and ask yourself if you made a mistake in judgement, or if your allies didn’t deliver on their promises. Either way, whether you forgive yourself or hold them accountable, your closure comes from acknowledging the fact that you can change your mind. You don’t have to stick with the people you started with. If they don’t deserve your blind, unconditional support, you can withdraw it. You can seek out causes and individuals who are more deserving of your efforts and commitment.
