All one sign, with nothing to lighten it
Born around a new moon with both lights in this one sign, you tend to be all or nothing about almost everything. You don’t stop until you’ve got what you set out to get. People feel a sort of power and mystery around you, whether or not you’re trying. Your moods can swing a long way, and if you’ve learned to handle them, you may find others follow your lead.
You’re a realist and quite likely a cynic, willing to look straight at how people really behave. So dark comedy may be your favorite kind. That’s not a sign of gloom. It’s how you stay friendly with what you’ve seen.
A long way in
You’re loyal, and once you’ve pledged yourself you can get almost addicted to the other person. A shared life with someone matters to you as much as satisfying work does. You’ll put a great deal into a relationship, and your capacity for depth is enormous. You’re also, and you’ll know this, very demanding.
You expect the same uncompromising devotion you give. If something seems to threaten that, you can be taken over by jealousy and a wish to get even. It’s the most difficult part of this placement, for you as well as for them. What you want most, real closeness, depends on trust, and it’s the one thing you can’t force. Being watched and tested doesn’t make anyone more loyal. It just makes them more careful.
Trusting on purpose
Treat trust as a decision and practice it, since your instincts alone may never quite feel safe. Choose someone who understands what you’re like and isn’t scared of it. Then, when suspicion comes, say it out loud and ask, instead of investigating. Revenge fantasies are private, and they can stay that way. Everyone has a right to feel safe with you, and to leave if they want to. Keeping that clearly in mind can be strangely freeing, for you too.
