Venus in CancerUnconscious ExpressionSelf-defeating habit: Oversensitivity and self-protection in social situations.Result: Indulging in self-protection exaggerates your feelings of isolation. Self-absorption leads to withholding your ability to empathize with others on deep, personal levels for fear that such caring may be rejected. Feelings of inadequacy and withdrawal in relationships can then result.You have a tendency to cling to private ideals of how people should respond so your feelings won’t be hurt and you’ll feel worthwhile. This expectation inevitably leads to experiencing others as being abrasive and unsympathetic to your subjective personal needs.If you seek to manipulate other people’s emotions to gain attention and caring, you may hold back your ability to care for and nourish others.Conscious ExpressionBy being willing to share your gift of sensitivity, you’ll develop a sense of other people’s situations. Then you can assist them by sharing the wealth of your loving emotional nature. In extending empathy to help others overcome their emotional hurt, you simultaneously realize a deep sense of social worth. When this ability to put people in touch with their sensitivities is brought forth, you are appreciated for your value. You experience an unshakable sense of self-worth when you encourage others to communicate their feelings respond with your unusual sensitivity.When you give others confidence in their capabilities to achieve what they want, you confirm your usefulness and value. Emotional nourishment and security in all social relations become yours when love and nurturing is freely given to others and nothing is expected in return.–Jodie Forrest, Spiritual Astrology -- source link
