I did not make goals for this moon consciously, as I usually do. I typically make a list of things I want to release or let go of, such as emotions for something or anger that I have toward someone. This time I just listened to how I felt and followed my gut accordingly (and thank goodness, because I would probably be in a big mess right now). Whereas I used to fall into temptation and do as I pleased, I am learning to stop and think about how other people feel. I feel that, too often in the past, I have dragged people into certain aspects of my life that they shouldn't have been dragged into. I have been too careless and assertive. Now I have been thinking things out more clearly, and taking other's into more consideration. My tactless and blunt words sometimes aren't necessary. I used to say that it's just who I am, and everyone should feel this way. But I think that my sharing my feelings with some people will only hurt them (not that the feelings are bad, but sometimes I need to keep these things to myself).

Anyway, I have met and gotten to know a couple of people a little bit more over these past couple of weeks. I have been thinking a lot about rising signs and sun signs. Your rising sign is your outward appearance or how you express yourselves to others. So if someone who knew about astrology met me, they might think that I am a Taurus sun as that is my rising sign, even though I am a Sagittarius sun. One thing I have noticed is that the people I make an instant connection with are with a Scorpio rising or sun. I'm so interested as to why I am attracted to such people. 

I am not sure if this is a logical explanation of if it is even at all related, but my venus (which rules love and relationships) is in Scorpio. I'm attracted to that kind of mystery and air about people, and I don't know. I think that this may be why. If anyone has thoughts on this let me know.
