8/19/18 Sunday Evening Bonus

Today's Horoscope Sunday Evening Bonus

All signs:
As they have been doing with increasing frequency lately, the stars suggest you figure out who you are, and accept it or change it, depending on how that goes for you.
As amazing as we all are, the stars know how we often confuse strength for weakness and weakness for strength. They watch us convince ourselves we are wrong for our more beautiful traits. They see that we are in turmoil, plagued by indecision and fear, afraid to admit what is true and who we really are.
They are here to tell you that there is nothing to fear. Too often we try to convince ourselves that we are what we're not, and eventually, we start to believe it. People have a tendency to make us regret being kind and giving, by not seeing or appreciating our gifts, and taking advantage. We end up punishing ourselves because we feel foolish or weak, when in actuality we are strong enough to care.
Caring can be the scariest thing in the world, because it involves investing part of yourself in someone else's life. It means trusting, and sacrificing, and taking a chance, and a lot of people are just not cut out to accept that responsibility from someone.
So they make you feel like an idiot, or the bad guy for their own shortcomings. Too many incidents like that can make you hard, and turn you into someone you're not.
But here's a secret the stars want to share with you: it doesn't turn you into anything else. It's just you being conflicted, and that will just breed more internal conflict. It is you trying to reconcile some of the unfortunate aspects of the world with the good natured person you are. Sometimes it can make you spiral for years until you figure it out. Sometimes you never figure it out at all.
That's because you are in denial about who you are. You are not the cold, unfeeling, selfish person your fear and insecurity tries to convince you that you should become. You are just a caring, sensitive person trying to deal with the hurt that caring brings. You are confusing your strength with weakness, and trying to turn weakness into strength.
The stars know that you've already seen that doesn't work.
So the stars suggest that you realize what you already know, and that is who you are. Go forward with the knowledge that just because others can't see what you give them, that doesn't mean you should change. That just means you should find other people like you to give those gifts to.
And the people who can't appreciate you? Well, maybe your example will help them figure it out one day.
Just because someone doesn't appreciate your gift when they receive it, doesn't make it any less of a gift. They will still carry that around with them, and someday, they might find a use for it.
In the meantime, you can go on living your life unconflicted and confident. You can get more out of life once you unburden yourself with all the things you aren't. You will be too busy enjoying the gifts you've already given yourself.
