Kanya Moons process emotion through usefulness: when they love you, they organise your life, remember your appointments, notice what you missed. Their inner world is analytical and often self-critical — feelings get audited before they are allowed out. The gift is practical devotion of the highest order; the practice is self-compassion, extending to themselves the care they lavish on everyone else.
