Capricorn Reflections: A Personal Journey of Self-Knowledge and Growth

When I was a teenager, I loved buying CAPRICHO magazine just to read the horoscopes and the Capricorn personality descriptions. I didn’t always believe everything (especially the predictions), but the traits always matched my way of seeing life perfectly.

Among so many doubts, dramas, and hormonal changes, that was one of the few things I could actually relate to when it came to understanding life.

That identification helped me figure out who I was — why I reacted to certain situations the way I did — and through that, I tried to better understand that phase of my life, especially when nothing seemed to make much sense.

I didn’t agree with the system, I didn’t understand the purpose of anything, I didn’t fit into any mold, and I didn’t want to be what others wanted me to be... there were so many “NOs,” and so many I heard at that time, that they ended up turning into doubts, introversion, resistance — and other traits that I now see really slowed down my emotional development. Sounds crazy, right?

As the years went by and I stepped into adulthood, I started to feel more confident in the strengths of being a Capricorn — and I began working on the weaknesses and flaws (recognizing and working on flaws is still one of my biggest challenges to this day).

And I’ll be very honest here: acknowledging your negative traits is not easy. What makes it harder is that our brain automatically tries to convince us that “this is just how I am and I won’t change.” That’s when things get complicated. 🥴

Without even noticing, I found myself working on self-knowledge and gradually began using everyday situations to try and improve my weak spots.

And if I can manage to evolve a little each day (which I think I already have 😅), then I’ll feel a bit more fulfilled — because only I know how hard this internal battle really is.

Well, I am patient, disciplined, realistic, grounded, persistent, and organized. And since I can’t stand wasting time, there’s a good chance I’ll be posting again soon to talk about some of those improvements. 🙏

I just don’t see myself saying I’ve solved all of them 100% — because, in my view of life, we’ll never be perfect. This is an eternal struggle for balance and consistency in a world that constantly shows you the opposite.
