Conversations with Taurus Boyfriend, Pt 3
Taurus boyfriend, working at computer desk: *Starts chewing something. Turns around to look at me*
Me: “What did you just put in your mouth?”
Taurus: “A piece of cheese I just found on my keyboard.”
Lives and Aesthetics of the Signs
Aries: Cannon ball diving into the pool, splashing everyone with water, and laughing. Yells obscenities at other drivers that piss them off. Always gets in trouble for being too loud in class. Will take any dare. Refuses to be told what to do and argues even when wrong. The life of the party.
Taurus: Sitting at the dinner table, eating, while reading a book on local edible plants. Goes for walks and puts random things he finds in his mouth. Will take any eating-related dare. Has tried just about every “strange” food known to man. Isn’t afraid of the “30-second” rule.
Gemini: Makes silly puns. Watches YouTube videos of baby animals and shows them to all of her friends. Full of questions. Constantly raises her hand in class, and can elaborate on a subject for an infinite amount of time. The one to start every conversation and the first to make friends in a new environment. Her laughter sounds like bubbles.
Cancer: Watches Disney movies way too much and probably cries during most of them. Shy. Avoids big responsibilities, often for fear of letting others down. Prefers to stay indoors and at home. Their “happy place” is inside, reading a good book, while wrapped in a cozy blanket on a rainy day. Very good at making up stories. Has vivid dreams and daydreams. Pretty good at baking.
Leo: Spends a lot of money on music festival tickets. Owns an entire shelf of different hair care products. Wears “loud” clothes and accessories to stand out. The friendliest jock you will ever meet.

Probably invented beer pong.
Virgo: Owns several calendars. Maybe even a label maker. Has a blog about “Planners”. Finds pleasure in ritualistic cleaning and organizing. Great at planning events. Always prepared. Carries everything they think they might need in the purse they take with them everywhere (“Mary Poppins Bag”). Loves to write, and keeps around a dozen half-filled notebooks in her room. Very good at problem solving. Prefers to work alone.
Libra: Messy. Owns at least one exploding bin of art supplies. Creates everything that decorates her room. Verbally comments to appreciate the beauty surrounding her as she sees it. Stares into your eyes when listening to you. Can make up a conversation about anything. Talks constantly until she forgets that she’s still speaking and trails off. Reads people like books, and uses humor to explore boundaries and learn about others. Avoids confrontation. Good at lying. Can’t own a white shirt because she spills everything on it (food, paint).
Scorpio: Perpetual “emo phase”, internally or externally. Rarely talks about themselves. Can walk into a room and immediately understand the intentions and personality of each person in it, just by looking. Hard shell, soft insides. Their eyes are the only ones that light up and shine in gloomy weather. They can stare into your soul. Only sees things in black or white. Usually has great taste in music. Deeply loyal friends and partners to those they trust. Keeps a lot of secrets, both their own and of those they love.

i love people who get excited about stars
There are no limitations, unless you create them yourselves. Anything is possible. You are only limited by your own imagination.
Dolores Cannon, The Three Waves of Volunteers and The New Earth (via sis-star-blog)
I did an event chart for the premiere of “Black Panther.” The film debut is an Aquarius with a Pisces Moon. How great for Chadwick to be experiencing his Lunar Return that night.
The Moon, Venus, Eros and Neptune were all in Pisces that evening. Lupita (Pisces) looked like a dream too. Danai had celebrated her Solar Return a few days prior as well.
The Aquarius/Pisces dynamic speaks to the conscious collective/revolutionary (Aquarius) aspect of the film and the mystical/spiritual (Pisces) as well. The visuals and world building (Neptune) are amazing.

Who Pays for the Signs?
Aries: They are children. Find their parents
Taurus: They pay for themselves. Everything costs so much. You don’t even exist
Gemini: Paying? They debate you until you don’t know what you were talking about. You’ll pay, confused
Cancer: You always pay for them. They say they’ll pay you back but they never do
Leo: They’ll always want to pay for you and expect nothing in return
Virgo: Whomever works more pays
Libra: Paying for yourselves; if you pay for them they’ll just feel really guilty forever about it. If they pay for you it’s because they love you and know you can’t pay for yourself
Scorpio: Fight to the death to pay. It’s a game. Also you will never know how much money they have
Sagittarius: They’ll pay just to boast about it. But they won’t think they’re boasting, just “being honest”
Capricorn: They’ll pay because they make more money and they’ll hold it over you like a grudge until the day you die. The second you knew them it was a competition and they’re always winning
Aquarius: Money is a corrupt system. You both pay, “unjustly”, they say OR 386 facts about the government that you didn’t need to know and you pay just to shut them up
Pisces: What? Money? They don’t have a job, they don’t even leave the house. No one pays. You eat air
If the Signs Had Pets
Aries: A pet rock (Don’t give them responsibility). They would think it’s funny anyway Taurus: Goats. Definitely goats. Gemini: A very loud parrot that probably has a very colorful vocabulary. Cancer: A bunny or something they could cuddle Leo: Wayyyy too many cats. Orange ones. Virgo: An exotic pet they could spend a lot of time maintaining, and make a hobby of it. Maybe like saltwater fish or a reptile. Libra: None. Their partner is already like their pet. Scorpio: Maybe a snake or venomous reptile/amphibian… But more likely a scorpion because Scorpio is pretty proud of their symbol Sagittarius: A horse. Something they could go on adventures with. Capricorn: None. They wouldn’t have time for it, but they’d love the responsibility if they did. Aquarius: Something fuckin weird. Bugs. Or maybe even just plants. A succulent or something. Pisces: You’d think fish but it would have to be really low-maintenance because they’d forget to feed it a lot.
Me, an Aries Moon, when something doesn’t work: “That’s fucking bullshit. It’s stupid.”
Everyone else: “No, it’s perfectly rational. Just fix it. It’s easy.”
Me: “I hate it.”
Transiting Saturn in Capricorn ♄ ♑
Saturn transit contract for Rising signs December 2017 - March 2020
“It’s time to repay your debts. I hope you were sensible enough to take out insurance. But then you were senseless enough to trust your energy in other people’s hands.”
Astrological tradition marks the significance of Saturn’s transits across the horoscope as distinctive life epochs. This is especially so if Saturn is crossing one of the angular 1st, 4th, 7th, and 10th houses. Capricorn is the astrological sea goat. The goat climbs up the mountain to symbolise the rise of the sun. The mermaid tail is residual of the water that fell as rain in dark winter. The day is now longer to accomplish the task. But the memories and reminders of the darkness are never forgotten. The birthday of Jesus was thus associated with the birth of Capricorn and the birth of our highest selves. Saturn slow blooms priceless wisdom and awareness in the area of life where this energy is felt. And it’s often the force of Saturn, rather than the inner development and change taking place that commands the attention. Sometimes years can pass before it begins to make sense
Saturn has come home in Capricorn. If you were born with Saturn in Capricorn, you are venturing into your Saturn Return, an astrological rite of honour and passage of time. This is not a transit to be feared but rather fill you with a sort of readiness and will that anything is possible. Saturn is where we face our obstacles, karma, and tests of resilience. There is no better place for Saturn to be than in its own sign where your greatest potential, resolve, and wisdom resides. You don’t have to merely survive Saturn in Capricorn, you can absolutely master it. Saturn is a slower moving cosmic energy. This change is like walking from one room to another. In this room, you will meet parts of yourself that you don’t like in circumstances you don’t like. Demands, unconscious resistance, and severe responsibility comes with the agreement we made with Saturn for all-round physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual development. Saturn rules mortality, its areas of influence can accelerate to such a degree they can seem to become life or death matters in our perspective. In this room, you will also meet a part of yourself that you will relish in, one wise beyond your earth years, with the resolve and qualities you never imagined yourself containing.
It’s important that you check your own transit chart for confirmation of Saturn’s position, because some people have signs close to the house cusp and intercepted houses that change the position of the planets, or have transiting Saturn making significant aspects to outer natal planets
🗻 Aries rising - Saturn in or entering the 10th house and crossing the midheaven
🗻 Saturn supplies his most exhaustive, powerful, and quality resources for a mountain peak ascension so profound it will feel like flying
🗻 Saturn has been reunited with its progeny, and you Aries rising have the gift of this as well as the assets that only Saturn knows how to find in his own house. This is the first time Saturn has been back in 30 years, so be prepared to start straight away. Saturn is crossing an angular house in your horoscope - the midheaven, so expect an extensive, vigorous, and uncontrollable change in the dominant focus of your life, the way you perceive yourself, and the way you construct your ultimate reality
Failure is no longer an option, and overused self-deceiving excuses are no longer tolerated. There is the pressure to become the ultimate authoritarian of their own life. Saturn here stimulates the desire to make an impression on the world and give a face to the name that has worked its way toward success. There is a harsh realisation of passing time and unmet potential. The can be a haunting awareness about unrealised dream and potential. The individual is primed to be unwilling to accept anything less than the best from and for themselves. Success will be very real and substantial, following only extensive hard work and sacrifice. There may be a promotion, advance in title, or goal accomplishment. A promising opportunity, long term position, or stable stream of can be interrupted by Saturn here. This is ultimately the case of one door shutting to make room for another, but this room can take significant time in construction. This will be especially relevant if the individual has become stagnated, dissatisfied, or lost sight of vision and goals. The 10th house is a family house so family issues or the birth of a child can interrupt the pace. However Saturn is the father, so this unveils a whole new dimension of wisdom because it accomplishes the task in the form of responsibility, accepting and growing into self-sufficient maturity. The trigger may also sense of being undervalued or accepting less than they are worth. This can be directed to the profession, but also inward themselves as they contend with harsh and epiphanic reality checks about their actions and choices until this point in time. Self-excuses and blame that once worked fail to hold up to any weight or variable, they are no longer permitted to sacrifice their potential and birthright gold for the cruelty they have experienced at the hands of others and giving into the setbacks that control them.There may be intimidation, severe criticism, or tense relationships with superiors, teachers, and one of the parents. The power struggles confronted with superiors may be rooted in the feelings of inadequacy, shame, and disapproval conditioned in childhood. There may a resolution of long term parental disputes, or the resources to confront residual childhood parental issues and criticism. This is the time to relinquish the pursuit of their expectation or approval. There is intense scrutiny placed on social conduct and impressions. The grand question is, “If I died today would I be proud of what I have accomplished?”
🧙 Taurus rising - Saturn in or entering the 9th house
🧙 You are free to roam but the flight schedule is painfully strict. Be cautious of arriving on time, because Saturn won’t wait for you
🧙 The awareness of this transit is extremely beneficial, because much of this activity is covert and unclear in its ultimate message
The mind has the will for development, expansion, and acquiring the cosmobiological range of vision. The critical task is the constructing the foundation that can pursue and develop an authentic philosophy based on personal experience and truth. Truth and inner realisation must be acknowledged and integrated. The person can obstruct this spiritual and cosmic realisation with great resistance due to their attached beliefs that provide a a source of comfort, safe framework of reality, and fleeting self-gratification. This sense of comfort eventually dissolves beneath dissatisfaction along with a sense of loss inherent to retaining self-deceptive beliefs. The provocative pressure to find and see something more, that they are something more can trigger one’s active quest for the first time or relentless experimentation with teachings. An atheist may have a vision. It may also cause a renouncement in one’s long term faith. An evangelist may have a disenchanting realisation. This transit can be a painful betrayal, epiphany, or liberation in the realisation of religious and spiritual deceit from trustworthy figures, family, or teachers. This realisation not only undermines religious beliefs but also the way they view their existence. It may trigger identity crisis or psychological overload. They can begin questioning every aspect of the reality they have accepted. There are substantial reconfigurations and re-orientation in perspective, the conscious experience, interpretation of reality, and universal frame of mind. There is a need to integrate dual identities that have become trapped in the unconscious. The unconscious roots that produce behavioural patterns of excess and immoderation are revealed. The 9th house deals with matters of the higher mind, law, and psychiatry. The individual can approach their own mind with the tools of this great mental philosopher. Deep and purposeful self-reflection is pivotal to this transit. There can be personal enquiry regarding the true meaning behind their thoughts, responses, beliefs, and actions. The larger context of this is discovering the higher purpose of their existence and their function in the greater universal operation. Sagittarius energy inflates on contact. It’s possible for mental activity to shutter into paralysis. Saturn is the materialiser, and it brings the fruits of the higher mind into the experience of reality. Ancient symbolism and spiritual law take the place of minor details and physical time. You can see how this can make it easy to lose touch with responsibilities and commitments during this period. There may be the desire to pursue higher education or continuing education masters or doctorate study. Abundant resources are in supply for research, expanding the knowledge and perspective base, and gratifying the acclaim that the mind desires. Teachers can become close mentors. And these teachers are very adept at re-directing the individual back to the true teacher - the spirit inside. Possible obstruction to the study period, there may be course changes to better realign with values, renewed perspective, or disillusionment. The study course may not reflect the greater goal. There may be a long drawn out process due to challenging course content or lack of will and focus to attend and study. There may be issues with mobility surrounding study. The 9th house is the card of fortune and the individual may receive some backpay from the karmic bet. Saturn offers little indulgence to those who choose to trade resources with thieves, so testing their luck comes with consequences. But this is not unlucky by any means, and the fortune bestowed by Saturn will be in the form of resource, wisdom, and a lifelong renewal in self and universal perspective. If traveling, it’s possible the person will find a place to settle down in for a while
🐍Gemini rising - Saturn in or entering the 8th house
🐍You won’t feel young again until this is over. You will feel like you have aged a lifetime. Approaching an 8th house is always daunting, but Saturn has just finished crossing your 7th house - an angular house in your horoscope so the intensity of Saturn is rather less severe
🐍Yes you are dying. No you are not dying any physically quicker than you were before, but your old self, and all those hiding inside that are dying. Arenas of Focus: Unconscious activity, Destructive patterns, Resources, Relationships
The Devil is waiting to have his debts repaid and you cannot die until you pay him back. There can be pressure to financially self-sustain, repay loans, and surrender reliance on other people’s resources. No transit of Saturn or the 8th house is unchallenging. Survival instincts are activated, along with self-destructive tendencies. All enemies are unseen, parts of yourself, or haunting memories. Traits and behaviours that are disadvantageous to spiritual ascension and preserving the physical body become these toxic forces to be excised. This poison is also distilled with the unconscious suppression and activity containing experiences of violated boundaries and psychic, psychological, or emotional intrusion and invasion. Internal toxicity reveals itself by unleashing a furious wave of self-destruction that threatens the individuals goals, relationships, resources, or reputation. Partners can also be the psychic punching bag in the place of inner demons. One critical lesson is the awareness and development of coping mechanisms that were once useful to the person’s environment, and have now become insufficient, defective, regressive, destructive, and inappropriate to their environment. This is largely when both survival and self-destruction converge. The Survival instinct provokes self-destructive behaviour in a survivalist response to expose disarray of this behaviour and capture the exorcising light of consciousness. Remember that it was only the light, the light of consciousness that could slay the Hydra’s heads. This initiates the desire to confront and change behaviour. Someone who is at the end of their life may prolong or exist comfortably for a longer period. Death is typically a taboo for people and their families, it’s something people would rather not talk about. This transit may stimulate the first circumstance where the subject of death is present, becomes a reality of life, and a subject that can the person can no longer hide from. This dynamic and unconscious gravity can increase fears regarding mortality, the resources and heritage left after death, the type of death one would like to have. The critical task is ultimate acceptance of this life, death, and rebirth cycle that is inherent to their existence, and the evaporation of identification with ego. This facilitates the individual’s capacity of surrender the ego to invite sacred transformation and spiritual evolutions and preparation for living this out and experiencing this in the 9th house. Part of this absolving of ego is active in the intimate experience. There may be a substantial growth in one’s understanding of intimacy, its power and significance is revealed. The body and spirit resists to superficial, emotionless encounters, or more than one sexual partner. Instead of satisfaction there can be the sense of internal contamination and disgust. The ego is sacrificed to vanish the physical and converge two souls into one. The sexual appetite can be difficult to stimulate and arouse, it seems to operate through very covert and subconscious activity, so they are only provoked. The partner’s finances can be stimulated, the partner may have a family death or revelation, the person may financial support the partner. Family secrets and skeletons that have directly affected the individual unconsciously can reveal themselves.
🎭 Cancer rising - Saturn in or entering the 7th house and crossing the descendant
🎭 You will come face to face with shadows cast over the faces of those who hold your heart in their hands. Saturn is crossing an angular house in your horoscope - the descendant, so expect an extensive, vigorous, and uncontrollable change in the dominant focus of your life, the way you perceive yourself, and the way you construct your ultimate reality
🎭 Arenas of Focus: Relationships, Psychological awareness, Subconscious behaviour, unconsolidated qualities
The 7th house is the house of marriage so it can solidify the commitment of relationships and indicate marriage or long term allegiance. Relationships that enter this transit embark a shadowy hall of mirrors. Some who walk in as a pair emerge out on their own. There will be significant tests of commitment, it can arouse the darkest and most difficult characteristics of both partners. Saturn honours time, and Saturn is questioning the viability and potential of this relationship outlasting the trials of life. You love your partner at their best, but the relationship will only endure for the long term if you are willing to accept and still love them at their worst. Relationships survive this transit are therefore primed to outlast the odds. Sometimes it can evoke the feeling that ‘something is missing’ and evoke one’s desire in having a relationships that may have seemed unimportant or unnecessary until this point in life. There may also be an active decision to rely on self-sufficiency, single life, and to gratify the independence and personal growth that takes place when there is nobody in the background to impress. Because the Saturn standard is real and meaningful, the individual may have a difficult time finding a person who moves the spirit. Or there may be disillusion following a mirror merry-go round of incompatible encounters. This act of relinquishing the fulfilment of a partner is the very process that can invite a valuable relationship because the person is capable of giving their whole selves and not depending on another source of completion. Partners may become very demanding, projecting, critical and persistently frustrated at the individual. A disadvantageous relationship is often too unsatisfying and detrimental to keep participating in. The individual becomes strongly sensitive to their unmet needs, feeling emotional, desperate, or hollow around the partner. Relationships are stimulated to reveal hidden and unacknowledged parts of the self. The partner and loved ones can become open enemies that provoke them in the subconscious spots that force the surfacing of internal personalities or undeveloped qualities they have never met before. It means that relationship conflict can trigger extreme, regressive, and undeveloped, uncontrollable behaviour. It will also be where their contaminated self-consciousness is demonstrated through other people. There may be initiation of a new relationship, possibly involving an older partner. It is also possible for supportive relationships to resolve childhood emotional and bonding issues with one or both of the parents. The decision to leave a relationship may be extremely challenging, highly pressured, come with a grief process and fear of future regret. Breaking a heart can hurt as much as having a heart broken. There may also be a return and regression to the most primitive and unresolved personal needs that manifest as re-enacting destructive relationship patterns. This transit may stimulate the desire to change a repetitive cycle of broken relationships and become more aware of what they are willing to offer and what they authentically need from a partner so they can welcome the right person in. One of the tasks is identifying and establishing what they are prepared to accept for themselves in relationships. There may be the establishment of a long term and beneficial business partnership or agreement. These are primed for success enabled by a proficient display of competence, negotiation, and collaborative values. One of the critical lessons is developing awareness of the responsibility and inherent power beheld in relationships, and that this area of life has a profound influence over their own lives and sense of internal completion. There may be instances when the individual is confronted with the profound effect of their actions, behaviours or intentions on loved ones in a way they have never been before. They will see just about everyone at their worst. Loved ones may become tired of repetitive or lack of changing behaviour. They can become very tiring also, because it can feel like being blamed for everybody’s bad day. If you wouldn’t accept hearing that from somebody else, why do you allow it from yourself?
“You know when the time is right. You have to learn to let go, and reject the ways they have left you feeling like you won’t exist without them. You existed through all of those demands, undeserved hostility, and being a psychological punching bag. So you really are more capable of existing alone. Actually, you are deserving of it, because you will love yourself again for being capable of letting go”
💊 Leo rising - Saturn in or entering the 6th
💊 What is toxic to the mind will be felt in the body, what is poison to the body will contaminate the mind. The 6th house has a dreary reputation, but Saturn prefers this earthy rhythm and active energy supply for personal development more than most places
💊 Arenas of Focus: Daily routine and working life, Pets and domestic animals, Health and link between Body and Mind
All matters of work and working reputation are stimulated. It means that the fear of loss of employment or purpose can become an anxiety. The desire to commit to a role with long term viability that provides development into the greater purpose become matters of importance. The loss of job can be self-induced. These unmet conditions can force the decision of resignation or job change pressured by intensive dissatisfaction, limitation, melancholy, and depleting energy and self worth. Fear of job loss can also be the resulting of self-devaluation and concerns about incompetence. This transit can provoke the question of being good enough. They can begin to feel dispensable and replaceable in their role. Nerves can compromise the position due to self-conscious preoccupation and uncharacteristic behaviour or mistakes. This can also generate the pressure to practice and advance the skills and qualities that can make a larger contribution. The energy supply is responsive to repetition, learning with the hands, and focused on turning the skill into an automatic process. The working life and employment schedule can also be disrupted by mental or physical health matters. The body has an increasingly vulnerable response to workplace stress, self-sacrificing in or responsibilities, burn out, and inadequate rest and recovery. There can be evasive aches and pains, digestive changes, and somatic symptoms. It is critically important for the person to realise that they can only offer and expect their best when they are restored and feeling their best. There are generous resources for constructing a health, physical activity, diet, and well balanced daily routine that provides long term sustenance and the re-engagement and communication of mind and body. Saturn is also an obsessive energy, so it’s possible that health anxieties activate and previous health anxieties accelerate. The appearance of physical symptoms and panic can initiate or exaggerate this. It may generate a fear of visiting the doctor regarding the outcome or the denial of symptoms. On the other hand, it may cause the individual to adopt health practices that can advance into extremist and fanatical rituals. There may be punishing or restrictive eating or exercise patterns, a dangerous intake of supplements, frequent doctor visits and invasive procedures, and fear generated decisions that ultimately put their physical, psychological, and emotional wellbeing at risk. This excessive behavioural pattern can be more pronounced or present in perfectionist types. But everybody experiencing this transit will be directed by the pursuit of perfection active in the unconscious. Often this area contains immense shame, guilt, and unworthiness. A life circumstance can also activate change in the approach to health and diet. Something like a pregnancy, health scare, or job change may do so by forcing a detox to substances and moderated awareness of physical intake. Just as a cleanse in the body must occur, there must also be mental purification. The mind is highly focused during this period and it can eventually distil into paralysis. A regular routine of meditation, breathing techniques, and mental relaxation is pivotal to wellbeing. Organising and refining the surroundings is a tidy out for the mind. There can be a kind of satisfaction and sense of tranquility when they get into the rhythm of re-arranging, de-cluttering, and purging what is no longer necessary. The individual can substantially minimilise their environment, belongings, and no longer require what takes up space. Problems with nerves or mental distress that have been self-managed or dismissed can reach a threshold or breaking point. It does so with the purpose intent that they no longer accept this for themselves, refuse to be defeated, and make the active decision to overcome or confront this experience with the best resources they can acquire. There may be increasing agitations in the immediate environment and a loss of internal control that can generate compulsion to control their external environment. There is emphasis on identifying and refining the psychological source of somatic symptoms, appetite, and digestive upset. It is also critical that professionals are the first point of consult with any health concern. This may be a beneficial period for finding a trustworthy doctor and allied health team. The individual has tremendous will and resolve to take control of their health and confront chronic health concerns. This transit can stimulate and surface unconscious ideals manifesting as personal expectation, unconscious activity and residue that reveals itself as attachment to routines and coping mechanisms that become ritual, and the powerful wisdom that conducts their instinct toward making the contribution that they ultimately desire
💎 Virgo rising - Saturn in or entering the 5th house
💎 Rise and shine even when you haven’t slept all night, the producers have become delirious and unraveled… but the show never ends and you are the star. The dark and coldness of Saturn is never welcomed by the 5th house, but Saturn has just finished crossing your 4st house - the imum coeli in your horoscope so the intensity of Saturn is rather less severe
The immediate experience can become very shadowy with Saturn consuming the solar light. The mood can descend. The response and recognition that they receive from other people can seem to change. Long lasting, residual personal issues regarding self value, self-respect, and cruel self talk are surfaced and projected in the performance around them. There can be experiences with people who embody these inner shadows. When these demeaning aspects of negative self-talk are heard said aloud by another person, or becomes enacted on them, the task is to realise they don’t willingly accept hearing this from another person, so why do they tell it to themselves? This transit can activate increasingly excessive desire for attention, possibly from the form of parents, superiors, teachers, coaches, and romantic lovers. There may be elaborate or extensive measures undertaken to gratify this. This may further associate with search or attachment to parental figures or lovers that provide the individual with unmet childhood needs. There is stimulation to construct an authentic identity display, and remove anything that is occluding the genuine visual definition. And additionally, to relieve the self-imposed limitations built by self-consciousness, perceived lack of ability or talent, and internalising other people’s expectations or what they believe is expected. This process can allow for the unregulated experimentation and pursuit of natural bliss, pleasure, and therefore talents. Creative skills and talents that have are stagnated as unregulated hobbies are supplied with the resources to focus, practice, develop, and materialise these qualities. There will be an increased desire to acquire recognition, commendation, or constructive criticism for creative and ego demonstrative pursuits. This is also the period significant for relinquishing the approval that is desired from others. The process of doing so can sublimate the attention that the ego demands. Vain and fleeting sexual encounters can fail to provide the same climax of satisfaction. There may be an increased desire to make a commitment with exclusive intimate partner. Self-gratification will be less instinctual and viscerally satisfying than respecting, honouring, and creating something meaningful with the other half. The individual may sense strain or tightness around the heart. Tension and stress directs here. Despite the lack of vitality and energy that seems available, a commitment to routine physical activity, contact with sunlight, playing with their children or pets, and practicing mindful breathing techniques nourishes, rests, and relieves the heartbeat, mood, and inner pressure. There may be strange experiences with the parents. One of the parents could get a promotion, have a change in fortune, make a big life decision, put their reputation at risk, or even exhibit strange behaviour. The parent even conduct themselves in a way or choose an avenue that can give the individual the impression that they have been neglected, overlooked, or forgotten.The relationship with children is stimulated with this transit. There is no better development point for wisdom in this transit than in the company of children. There may be a great longing for a child that finally eventuates. There may be the surprise birth of a child that the individual never realised was so essential to their growth and existence. There may also be the surrender of the dream of a child after extensive obstacles. The maternal love never dies and still longs to be given. When this is re-directed through to children of friends, nieces, nephews, cousins, and in inspiring, germinating and an authentic creation which is ultimately themselves. It’s possible that in this very act of inner fulfilment and peace they unknowingly develop into the parent that their future child is waiting for.
🌒 Libra rising - Saturn in or entering the 4th and crossing the imum coeli
🌒 The lights are on, but nobody is home
🌒 Saturn is crossing an angular house in your horoscope - the imum coeli, so expect an extensive, vigorous, and uncontrollable change in the dominant focus of your life, the way you perceive yourself, and the way you construct your ultimate reality
Nowhere feels safe, nowhere feels like home, and nowhere seems to want them. There can be a lack of dream, or dreams that involve significant and forgotten memories or family members. Taking their problems to bed only causes nightmares. There can be a resistance or difficulty with sleep. Unresolved issues can surface at this time. They may overthink or worry about the issue of falling to sleep or getting enough shut eye. There can be extensive wakefulness and then long periods of what seem to be hibernations of physical and mental exhaustion rather than regenerative sleep. A well-balanced sleep schedule is very beneficial. The individual may be forced to learn how to develop some way of closing or alleviation residual anxiety and emotional and psychological discomfort before trying to sleep. Enduring anguish, pain, and unresolved childhood issues with one of the parents can surface. It can create the experience for validation and reconcile to finally be offered, although a little late it is constructive, substantial, and enduring. One of the parents may become very demanding or controlling in some form. The response and management of emotion and residual reliance on primitive conditioning is tested and dissolved beneath relentless weight. One critical lesson is the awareness and development of coping mechanisms that were once useful to the person’s environment, and have now become insufficient, defective, regressive, destructive, and inappropriate to their environment. This is largely sourced from cultivating emotional self-sufficiency, not practicing coldness and discipline as you may expect from Saturn. It is rather nurturing, recognising, and responding to the needs of the inner child with the archetypal parent inside who now contains the capacity for self-expressing these desires. If the contract is followed, this transit facilitates the inner child’s reunion with the inner mother and father. This is a resourceful convergence of powerful internal polarities. It is enlightening in a spiritual sense, but in a physical sense, it may dilute fears of abandonment, aloneness or separation, emotional intrusion, and the dependance of external sourcing of emotional recognition and dependency. Self-sufficiency and emotional development is ready to be attained. The person can spend a lot of time seeming to float in the ether, unsure of where they have gone and what they are doing there
🔬 Scorpio rising - Saturn in or entering the 3rd house
🔬 The author in the mind seems to have fallen asleep, but who is awake in there?
🔬 Arenas of Focus: Communication, Interactive Environment, Education, Brothers and Sisters
One of the primary expectations is developing mental maturity. The mind can seem paralysed. This is a symptom of under stimulation and lack of progressive activity. The mental resources are supplied almost exclusively for intellectual development, focus for meaningful pursuits, and practicing and advancing mental talents. The individual is equipped for rapidly conceiving the worth and advantage of information. There can be an intolerance for material that lacks depth or resourceful intellectual assets. There may be some form of communicative disruption and preference to silence. The person may have to overcome tremendous internal resistance to actively participate in conversation. It can result in some form of social exclusion or withdrawal. Thought patterns, psychological conditions, and mental behaviours are tested beneath significant weight. The structure of reality in the immediate environment undergoes powerful changes. This transit can profoundly change the way a person perceives and thinks about the world. One of these changes may be provoked by increasing and commanding self-criticism regarding the mind and common mistakes. There can be a loud replay and intrusive memory of criticism and sense of intellectual inadequacy they were made to feel as children. This is largely present to promote self-reflection and thorough mental analysis regarding resources acquired across life and contained in the mind. These are not solely academic credentials but also powerful experiences, relationships, the intelligence applied at work, the natural qualities that you express automatically, the same ones that other people spend hours or even lifetimes practicing and perfecting. This deep sourcing of resource makes slow but resounding long term changes in terms of mental confidence and pride. Education is stimulated. There may be a great desire to begin a course of study. Accelerated focus, organisation, and mental will provide assets for success. There may be an encouraging, supportive, and beneficial rapport from a teacher or an older mentor. Because education is focused, there can also be obstruction in this area. A course of study may be prolonged due to challenging content, lack of mental inspiration, psychological stress and burn out, or re-arranging the course outline due to disillusionment or renewed perspective and appetite for something greater. There may be issues with mobility surrounding study. There may also be tension or unfairness with strict teachers and academics that leaves a lasting toxin. It’s possible for one of the siblings to move away or become very distant or unwell. The individual may become the pillar of support for siblings due to some form of parental discord or issue. Drawn out sibling rivalry, separation, or conflict may be resolved with maturity, or the realisation of the possible long term loss that will incur. The mind and pressure of reality can feel like a suffocating force with Saturn transiting the 3rd. The individual has an increased vulnerability to chest colds and sinus problems. It’s important that deep and mindful breathing is undertaken on a regular basis
💸 Sagittarius rising - Saturn in or entering the 2nd house
💸 Money feels better in the hands than the object being exchanged for it. Saturn has just finished crossing your 1st house - an angular house in your horoscope so the intensity of Saturn is rather less severe
💸 Arenas of Focus: Finances, Resources, Internal Value, Creative Capital
There can be tension surrounding self-worth and internal value when Saturn moves into the 2nd. Regardless of the circumstance, the sense of failing to make progress or stagnation is stimulated. The body can become heavy, listless and demand the establishment of an adequate rest and regeneration schedule. There may be an increased or decreased self-conscious with the body and physical appearance. The financial situation is highly focused, there is strenuous tension to ensure long term security and institute sold financial and resource management. There can be a great suspicion that something is about to collapse from right beneath of them. The individual may become the sole financial supporter, or issues may arise with dependants. There will be a pressure to ascertain resistance to material urges, and learn how to say ‘no’ to providing loans and financial supplements that won’t be repaid. This is a favourable period for repaying debts and devising creative personal business plans and capital. There is a good rationality and sense of preservation when approaching financial and business resources that can pour the foundation for developing something significant. The individual will begin comprehending the value of money in its respective relevance. For instance, someone who has been quite lavish and wasteful with large amounts of money may be forced to experience the value of $20 to someone who has little. Momentary, impulsive expenditure no longer provides the same gratification. The internal value system and sense of power in the world can undergo extensive growth changes. There is a need to demonstrate authentic values through the body, work, and the surroundings. Extensive practice, application, repetition, and energy can be directed into developing the capital of natural assets and resources. There may be dietary or metabolic changes, unusual sensory experiences, sensitivity to noise, light, and environmental chaos, the person may also need a lot of body and neck massages
🤦 Capricorn rising - Saturn in or entering the 1st house and crossing the ascendant
🤦 There is a stranger staring back in the mirror
🤦 Saturn is crossing an angular house in your horoscope - your ascendant, so expect an extensive, vigorous, and uncontrollable change in the dominant focus of your life, the way you perceive yourself, and the way you construct your ultimate reality
Self-image becomes shadowed, the individual can become very self critical, self conscious, and identify with dark moods and inadequacies. Severe questioning regarding existence, place in the world, and the matter of internal values and qualities being authentically expressed. Disadvantageous personality traits and shadows can be relentlessly active, consuming, controlling, and destructive in order to provoke awareness and change in behaviour. For example, the individual may disregard a promising opportunity out of self-conscious anxiety and lack of confidence only to find out that a colleague much inferior in experience and education received the promotion. The intense discontent that can rise from letting themselves be overcome and directed by emotions, attitude, or false fear can bring about this focus on the need to change self-talk and behaviour. A critical task is surrendering the desire for approval and acknowledgment and allow themselves to spontaneously express the genuine energy that flows naturally through the identity. This is no longer so easy with Saturn pervading the interface between spirit and reality. The vitality can seem weakened and preferable to fading into the background. Resistance is met with sourcing the energy for conducting and interacting with the self-expression, it can seem like there is barely enough energy for anything. This is where the lessons of the 12th house come into focus and source from the light and presence that was formed from the waters of darkness and solitude. People in their lives can become very resistive, oppressive, and rejecting. It can feel like everybody is against them, or that they are too loud or too quiet, getting in the way, agitating everyone, or just an indispensable entity. Social encounters provide opportunity to test the strength and substance of identity growth and development. Patterns of self-deception and and incompatible goals and desires can be abolished. This can become an opportunity to see who in one’s life has unconditionally sincere concern and the individual’s best interests at heart.
🧘 Aquarius rising - Saturn in or entering the 12th house
🧘 Where did you go? Did you vanish down a rabbit hole? Have you ever heard so much noise and sound in silence?
🧘 Arenas of Focus: Solitude and privacy, Psychic and Dream experience, Empathy and Compassion
Saturn in the 12th ignites substantial desire to absolve from the world and be alone. There can be resistance or acceptance to seclusion. A critical task is learning to be alone without being lonely. This generates from the active will to enter the shores of solitude barefoot and alone. Intense, relentless, and receptive emotional conduct can sweep the individual into states of immense guilt and mixed emotional states. There may be an increased need for rest and sleep and a heightened dream state. The feet can become very sore and suffer unusual pain and strains. There can also be trouble sleeping and lack of dreaming, also an increased sensitivity to their environmental stimulus, like becoming very disturbed by loud noises. This convergence can cause a weak grasp of reality, there can be confusion surrounding what is real and what is not. There can be a consuming sense of emptiness, and that something is missing. It is not the energy and feeling they know and they can explain. It’s another force that seems to have drained a part of existence from them. There may be increasing occurrences of sadness or emotional experience that seem to arise suddenly out of nowhere. There is desire to unfold and enhance undeveloped empathy, psychic receptivity, selfless compassion, and identification with something larger-than self. The task is to find and foster unity with the soul of humanity. But much of this process is undergone in solitary. The difficulty is forming a powerful connection without anybody else there, so the energy is internalised into the personal sourcing of light and re-connection with the source. Reconciling this private relationship between outer self and inner spirit ultimately conceives reunion with the collective unconscious. Karmic debt is repaid by your hidden enemies. There will be a desire to use harsh experiences and pain as an opening for empathy and guidance for other people. Another critical task is the development of empathy and responsiveness. There will be forced reliance on internal, invisible support networks. Most of this transit’s energy is directed into cultivating the necessary inner growth that is clear of outside forces and influences in preparation for Saturn’s following transit across the ascendant. When this occurs, the lights will switch off this darkness blooming over you, and reveal the quality of the work you have been doing alone over this time
🧚 Pisces rising - Saturn in or entering the 11th house
🧚 You were just primed to establish and achieve your goals, now are you ready to see your dream?
🧚 This, along with the 10th house is another conditioned primed for rich spiritual and physical value during this transit. Saturn is at home with Aquarius and exclusively available for personal, essential, expert sourced Saturn mentorship
Friendships are highly stimulated, and the ego is better gratified by the re-direction of energy into social, charitable, and humanitarian avenues. There may be desire to re-engage with social circles to facilitate real and meaningful connective experience. There may be a substantial loss of contact with friends. One of the friends may relocate, or there may be difficulties with parents of friends. This is the development and conservation period of deeply intimate, solid, and lifelong friendships. The individual will discover through their own and other people’s behaviour who their true friends are, who can be relied upon, and who can be trusted. The person can withdraw from social groups and online interaction. There may be a dark feeling of rejection, exile, self-consciousness, or disillusion. Unresolved unconscious matter is projected onto their social circle, culminating with great need to make a substantial contribution to the inner circle and the larger circle of humanity. The pressure of this can raise discomfort in group situations, the individual can become preoccupied with the sense that they are unwanted, being excluded, or indispensable. This is the case where online interactivity can seem increasingly safe and preferable. Saturn’s active pressure and relentless desire for the unity relative to the 11th house can self-sacrifice through exhausting the social calendar. One of the critical lessons in this transit is developing self-awareness and responding to the substantial responsibilities, accountability, meaning, and personal contributions that friends have in one’s life. This is also applicable to the individual’s community, and participation in groups and social causes. There may be a great desire to actively contribute, advance, or leave a lasting legacy in these organisations. There can be the sense of lacking inspiration, being overly confined and pressurised with no avenue for outlet, extensive day to day monotony deprived of stimulation, animation, and its element of surprise and shock. The individual must disregard what the world expects out of them and focus on making the world inside them an ultimate reality. There can be a loss of faith in authority, information, media, and cultural conditioning. The individual may become obsessed by strange or unusual intellectual interests that provoke their unusual and eccentric side. There may also be a deepening interest, maturity, activity, fanaticism, or shift in political and ideological dynamics. Saturn here can associate with a growing desire to catalyse mass institutional change. Social encounters take on a whole new importance and provide a domain to experiment with personal conduct, style, and modes of operation to discover the authentic self expression. In the pursuit of the title, acclaim, and rise of success in the 10th house, there was a dream peeking behind that, and a utopia envisioned for your life. This transit can make the wish you have done with hard work come true. Just know the right time to shut the door. Saturn is the benefactor that can supply the resources, networks, and support that brings the dream into life

what you were supposed to learn between 2016 and 2018
apply with rising sign.
ARIES
2016: You were supposed to differentiate what you want from what you think the world wants from you. This was a year of self-discovery, one that had you challenging and questioning a lot of things that you’d previously been accepting as fact. You did a lot of soul-searching this year, and came out on the other end with some pivotal realizations.
2017: You were supposed to dive off the high board. When you knew what needed to change you went for it – and probably head first. This was the year in which you experienced radical change and saw a world that was beyond what you’d ever conceived of before. All of this new understanding brought a change in perspective, and a welcome one at that.
2018: This is the year you decide what you want to do from here on out. This is the year that you get clear on some of the big, lingering question marks that still exist in your life. You’ll regain your clarity and focus in work and in love, and you’ll get ready to start deepening those roots come 2019.
TAURUS
2016: You were supposed to reinvent something. Whether that was a home remodel, a career shift, or even just a reconsideration of who your innermost friend group is, what really changed this year was your self-image. There were parts of yourself you’ve needed to accept for a long time, and other parts of your potential that had been latent until now. This was the year to do what had not been done before.
2017: You were supposed to learn boundaries. Yes, you’re a social creature (even if you’re inherently introverted, Tauruses thrive in their “tribe”). Despite this, 2017 was a year to learn what it means to say “no,” what it means to speak up when you need to speak up, what it means to not fear being disliked in favor of exhausting yourself to the point of total depletion.
2018: This is the year the tides turn for the shore. After so many months of uncertainty, newness and soul-searching, this is the year that you start to find some reprieve. Venus is center stage all year long, and your personal relationships and business ventures receive sparkling luck because of it.
GEMINI
2016: You were supposed to embrace changes at home. This year ruled everything with your closest family members, and this was a time for you to confront new challenges with vigor and to find within them grace. You’d spent the last few years very much focused on yourself and your work, but something drew your attention to what really matters: giving your time and energy to those closest to you.
2017: You were supposed to see who your real friends are. You’d spent so much of the last few years trying to cater to people who sometimes didn’t seem like they really cared all that much in return, and 2017 brought complete clarity as to who you should really be spending your time with. This was a year to make amends, reinvent your social calendar, and redistribute your time and energy to people and things that brought you joy in return.
2018: You are supposed to embrace that project you’ve been dreaming of forever. With everything starting to settle into a new kind of normalcy on the homefront, this year will be all about stepping past your comfort zone and building something for yourself. There’s a reason you’d been feeling so much stagnancy and discomfort at times – something was telling you that you’re meant to do greater things than you can currently conceive of. This is the year to take the first step.
CANCER
2016: You were supposed to let this year surprise you. This was a time of unexpected advancement for you, and some of the choices you made then would leave lasting impressions on your life for many years to come. You gained clarity and a degree of maturity you didn’t even realize you were missing. This was the year that you started to get clear on what – or who – you really want in your life.
2017: This was the year you were supposed to run, not walk, toward your goals. This was the year that you started living out your ambitions every single day. Gone are the days of pipe dreams just existing in your mind. Whether it was committing to newfound responsibility, routine, or even just making more time for what you claim to value, this was the year you challenged yourself.
2018: You are supposed to let love in. It doesn’t matter if you’re single or happily betrothed, this is the year that love takes center stage for you. Whether it is friendships, your closest romantic relationship or even just self-love, this is the year that you re-prioritize what you thought mattered and make sure that your life is focused on what really matters: the people you love, the things you love, and the work that you love, as much as you’re able to love it.
LEO
2016: You were supposed to let go of the plan. At this point in your life, you had to accept that though things didn’t go as you once thought they would, that doesn’t mean they aren’t going well. Though it comforts you to adhere to your idea of “what’s next,” sometimes, the best thing you can do is see where life takes you. Usually, the things you lose are for your best interest anyway.
2017: You were supposed to find yourself again. The low blows of 2016 took a toll on your self-confidence, which is a rare thing for you to experience. However, it set you up to find a whole new degree of self-confidence and assuredness within yourself. If you could survive the past year, you can survive anything.
2018: You’re supposed to go where you’ve never been before. They say that the true definition of idiocy is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. This year, that will be put to the test for you. You’re meant to expand your borders, date new people, try new things… you may just find that there’s a whole lot of joy waiting for you in life, if only you’d open up and give it a chance.
VIRGO
2016: You were supposed to cut loose ends. This was the year that you had to come face to face with what wasn’t working in your life – lest it be forcefully removed from you first.
2017: You were supposed to pursue a new dream. This was the year that you embarked on a new, long-awaited adventure, whether it was a new relationship, the next level of your career, or perhaps even travel. This was the year in which you were supposed to take risks, and see firsthand what works and what doesn’t for your life.
2018: You are supposed to make some firm decisions. After the past two years of an intense tug of war between what you think should be working and what you know isn’t, this is the year to ride or die. You will either start to soar and thrive like you never have before, or come to terms with having tried something new, even if it wasn’t supposed to be forever.
LIBRA
2016: You were supposed to learn how to plant seeds. The past few years have been nothing short of radical for you, and it all began with your emerald Jupiter year in 2016 lighting the way for you to start making connections – perhaps with partners, employers or even with your inner self – that would come to fruition over the next few years.
2017: You were supposed to realize how you were holding yourself back. This year was all about letting those seeds start to sprout, and identifying the ways in which you were stomping on your garden before you gave it a chance to grow.
2018: You are supposed to learn how to let your garden feed you. This year is about finishing up what began in 2016, and allowing yourself to thrive in it. It is about making serious relationship commitments, becoming more financially stable than ever, and adjusting to your highest vision of yourself – because deep down, that’s who you’ve been all along.
SCORPIO
2016: You were supposed to learn how to see for yourself. Despite being particularly self-assured and confident – even standoffish at times – you’re almost overwhelmingly swayed by what you think other people think. This was the year to start believing in your power more than your doubt; to start honoring what you feel, not what others believe.
2017: You were supposed to embrace the feelings you’d been shoving away for so long. This year was all about confronting the emotions that you had been trying to avoid. Of course, it is all with purpose: next year is going to be about your renewal, and so to know what you want, you usually must first identify what you don’t.
2018: You’re supposed to start new. With Jupiter touring your sun sign for most of the year, it is your time to build the life of your dreams. The relationships, jobs, challenges and choices you make now will leave you with (positive) repercussions for many, many years to come.
SAGITTARIUS
2016: You were supposed to learn what it means to reconcile. This was the year that you had to look face first at what you think you’ve failed at, the relationships that had deteriorated over the years, and the ways in which you need to improve your wellbeing. This year likely brought you to many distant lands and into the arms of people you’d never expected. This was a year of mind, body and spirit exploration. You were supposed to come out on the other end with a greater sense of clarity.
2017: You were supposed to learn how to reconnect. Whether it was a sick parent who you needed to stay at the bedside of, or a cousin who you’d regrettably lost contact with over the years, or even a friend who you’d always think about but never make plans with, this was a year that you opened your heart back up, and let the right people in… however slowly you had to do it.
2018: You are supposed to make significant change in your life this year. Whether this means finally moving, changing careers like you’ve known you had to for so long, or just re-adjusting your daily routine to be more sustainable, this is the year in which any unstable bridges will collapse. This is for the best – you’d been hanging on by a thread for far too long. Besides, greener pastures await.
CAPRICORN
2016: You were supposed to learn how to have vision. Despite being strong-minded, Caps are known for being malleable, if not gullible. They easily adopt other people’s ideals as their own, and this was the year to break out of that. It was time for you to learn how to think and feel autonomously, and the chances that succeeded those revelations seemed nothing short of miraculous.
2017: You were supposed to get clarity on what’s not working. This was the year that didn’t hold back: you saw what doors were closed, you saw people’s true colors and intentions, you saw which business ventures were becoming fruitful and which weren’t. You couldn’t fool yourself if you tried to this year, the only question was how long it would take for you to finally choose to pivot.
2018: You are supposed to start a journey into the unknown. This is a year in which you will do things you’ve never done before, perhaps live in or visit places you’ve never been, try work you’ve never done. This is the year that you will surprise yourself with your capability, and you will see all your past regrets dissolve now that you are truly living for your own best interest, not your preoccupation with someone else.
AQUARIUS
2016: You were supposed to learn patience. Some years are revolutionary, some are stationary, some just… are. This year was the latter for you, as things seemed to move slowly, if at all. Little did you know then, the gears were turning, it was all just happening beneath the hood (so to say).
2017: You were supposed to learn how to trust. This is a year that bridged the status of your life between 2016 and 2018, and it was built entirely on trusting people. Letting others into your sacred vision for business, love or life is not easy, but it is crucial. This year, you started to open up to potential you hadn’t recognized before, whether that was dating someone outside of your norm, or letting other people take on more responsibility at your job. Either way, it worked out for the best.
2018: You are supposed to learn how to coexist, and co-work, better than ever before. You’ve learned over the past few years that teamwork makes the dream work (ha, but seriously, it does). Therefore, it’s in your best interest to be the best partner and in some cases, boss, that you can be. This means honing in on your empathy, your compassion, and at times, your selflessness, all while holding true to a greater vision. It’s a challenge, but the rewards will be invaluable.
PISCES
2016: You were supposed to look into your past, and feel into your depths. This was a year in which some of your darkest traumas peeked their way out of the closet and said hi again. Of course, this was not so you’d needlessly suffer, but so that you’d see them for what they are – harmless ghosts in the closet – and resolve that you can move on.
2017: You were supposed to find passion again. Over the past few years, if you’ve been less than thrilled with life it’s because you’ve felt your passions were suppressed by the weight of responsibility and loss. This is the year you rediscovered what you really love, or noticed that maybe you made a wrong choice with a move, a job, or a personal life decision. Either way, it’s not too late to turn around, or in some cases, keep running toward the horizon.
2018: You are supposed to change your life – for good. With all of the evidence you’ve gathered over the past few years, now is the time to take action. You know where you want to go, the challenge is only whether or not you will be fearless enough to let yourself do it.

i get there are some people who have a profound psychic tuning in with planetary and celestial bodies but i played around with some asteroids, i have one called nessus in the 5th house. i found some very scarce resources which said, ‘this person is a pedophile’ and my daughter’s said 'abuser’ of one sort or another. im sure the rest of the text was equally as insightful. in the whole world there seemed like there was around 3 people who knew anything about this, sounds like a lot of in depth observation had been carried out. this is why its so hard for me to respond to some fringe aspects of astro because in what wacky division of astrology do we find and define this kind of stuff and what does it do to especially young people who are trying to define their identity through a universal and ancient method, often open minded and open hearted to read such callous and degrading 'personality traits’. imagine if a baby’s chart was calculated following birth and displayed immoral conditions as such, and we decided then and there to lock them up for life… not even providing a moment for the individual to activate free will. ive studied astro for long enough to read things like that with a massive eye roll, but it could be so damaging, and strongly affect impressionable people or people who are very confused about how astrology manifests in our lives… and if you can remember you were probably confused about everything when you walked into the door of astrology and everything is so blurred. i dont know that much. im pretty young and have no clout but i dont see much of a usefulness in astrology past helping people, and part of that includes helping people recognise the unique skills that can be practiced into talents and the substantial base of qualities chosen by a soul to undertake divine work on a very difficult and low plane… and yes this also means sharing a laugh with an astrology meme, finding different ways to display and convey our understanding of archetypes, not going over the chart with a fine tomb comb looking for a placement that explains every mood and personal problem, and not to imply that people are inherently born with cruel, evil, and repulsive tendencies which are largely nurture qualities anyway. if you can look into a new baby’s eyes, and you can see something ominous staring back like a child abuser due to a rock shard in an astrological house, i dont know if you are looking with your own devil eyes. to me, astrology is fun and uplifting and informative and time wasting and time expanding and theres no better way to approach astrology than to play with the cosmos in the way she likes to play back, but again its just what i think and this is probably a big whiny windbag rant from an old saturn dominated grandpa
