- I’m really interested in this Libra guy, but don’t really know how to talk to him… Help! – Anon

Libras are very charismatic, well-spoken and aesthetically pleasing. I don’t think I’ve ever met a Libra who hadn’t already cultivated their own personal brand that fits their personality. They are great conversationalists and huge peace-keepers. A big reason as to why they’re so indecisive is because they never want to break the peace. They often feel like adamantly injecting their opinion onto someone else, whether they were asked to or not, is disrupting the peace.
That being said, Libras are huge flirts and every conversation with them carries. If you are unsure about how to start conversations, talk about literally anything they may be interested in. They often are very passionate about certain things, whether that be Marvel superheroes or Anastasia makeup. If you start conversations with them asking them to explain things they are passionate about, they’ll never stop talking. Libras are charismatic and know how to talk to people where they center conversations around other people. When you flip the script on them and add a little flirting, they won’t know what hit them.
- Why does my moon in Cancer make me so emotional? – Anon

The moon represents your emotions, inner thoughts and more. Reference my previous articles for more on the moon and its effect. Cancer is ruled by the moon. Previously, I mentioned that each sign also has a ruling planet. While the moon is not a planet, it is an icon and does rule over a sign. Since your moon is in Cancer, your Cancer is at home.
Don’t think that having a lot of emotions is a problem. Often, people with a lot of Cancer placements will have a lot of strong emotions. This isn’t to say that other signs do not have emotions, but Cancers are more in tune with their emotions. Cancers are emotionally driven and very sensitive to their environment. Sometimes, a Cancer’s emotional mood swings do not stem from themselves, but from the people around them. They are like sponges who absorb everything.
Cancer moons are soft, nurturing and have big hearts. Since you feel your own emotions so strongly, you often notice other people’s emotions as well. I’m not saying you’re a mind reader, but you are more receptive to body language and more. Since you are also nurturing, people will also have a tendency to vent to you repeatedly. You may invite people into your life with a strong need to fix them or care for them. Many Cancers feel that taking care of someone is a sign of emotional support and connection.
- I’m in need of some Halloween costume ideas and I’m an Aquarius. – Anon

It’s spooky season. As an Aquarius, you are an air sign who loves ideas that challenge the flow. You love your friends and fighting for others. Great costumes would be group costumes with your friends or interesting solo costumes. Group costume ideas could be sitcoms—perhaps a Rick and Morty or Men in Black costume. An interesting solo costume would be dressing as your own sign. Aquarius’ symbol is a water-bearer, so if you could somehow creatively involve that, it would be amazing. If not, dressing up as an alien may be the way to go.
