15 Things to do at UMass!

Ok, so I’ve been getting a lot of questions about what to do at UMass as incoming freshmen who want some insight into how to get the most out of college and be active on campus! Here are 15 tips of things you can do! 

1. Go to the gym! We have a brand new, huge recreation building that is great to let out some stress on the treadmill, or take some group fitness classes such as Zumba, yoga, ballet, hip hop, spinning etc for free! Grab a friend and have a few laughs as you get moving. 

2. Go downtown to a coffee shop or a restaurant. There are such yummy places in downtown Amherst such as the famous Antonio’s Pizza, Miss Saigon, Starbucks, Judy’s, Amherst Coffee (my favorite coffee shop!!!), CVS, Black Sheep, Baku’s, Bruegger’s Bagels, Frozen Yogurt store, Chinese food, Amherst Ice Cream, clubs like Monkey Bar and Lit, and bars such as McMurphey’s, Stacker’s, The Pub and so much more! 

3. Go to the library and get some great food at the Procrastination station. Check out the floors and a book!

4. Go to the Mullins Center to ice skate! Skate rentals are $5 and its free entrance  to UMass students. 

5. Go to the malls! Hop on the bus at the Fine Arts Center called Hagis Mall to go the Holyoke mall. 

6. Go check out the Fine Arts selection of theatre, music and other shows of performances that are mostly free to undergraduate students or at most $5 dollars. 

7. Go swim at the many pools available such as Tottman, Boyden or Hicks Currey! 

8. Go check out the Duffrey Conservatory which is one of my favorite places on campus! Its a green house filled with humid air and plants from all over the world. Theres benches you can sit on and read a book if you like. 

9. Go to a concert! UMass hosts a ton of concerts at the Mullins Center throughout the year such as the fall concert, spring concert, and EDMS. I saw Skrillex 2 years ago, and they have brought in Jason Derulo, Kesha, Fetty, Tinashe, and tons of other artists. 

10. Go check out the program council events, they host so many cool events for people in the club, but also those who just want to go to a specific one. They advertise their events on their facebook page so go like it to find out more!

11. Go search on Facebook for clubs such as UMass Outting Club, UMass (insert interest) club and you will get notifications of cool things to do. 

12. Go chill out my the campus pond or the Puffer’s Pond! These are great spots that are very popular. 

13. Check out the art exhibitions around campus such as at the FAC, or the Southwest Hampden Gallery. 

14. Go on a hike! There are nearby mountains such as Mt. Sugarloaf, Mt.Bare, etc if you want to go with a couple of friends and enjoy some nature with exercise. You can also join people in the outting club as they go on many weakly trips to nearby hikes. Go like their Facebook page to see more, UMass Outting Club! 

15. Check out Frat Row on North Pleasant Street for some parties on a weekend! Consider joining Greek Life if your are interested! 

Hope this helps people, and especially incoming freshman gain an insight into some of the possibilities you can have at UMass! :D

College Personalities Masterpost

[This is supposed to be tongue-in-cheek, and I get that everyone will have a different opinion. No offense intended!]

***

Universities

Harvard: The Stanford of the East. They go to Harvard, sweaty :))), and will make sure you know it. Senator’s sons: brash, smart, and never loved enough as children. Marxists who will graduate only to become CEOs. High School Salutatorians.

Yale: Power gays and hyperfocused law students. Secret societies, a housing system like Hogwarts’s, and a fistful of adderall in every pocket. High School Valedictorians.

Dartmouth: Frat guys, athletic stoners, and upper middle class mountaineers. Imagine a Penn student who spends their summer semester at Brown, vaping their way through business school.

Penn: Future opioid abusing bankers, who party hard but have enough connections to compensate for their academic performance. Like Dartmouth but not as chill; like Princeton but not as prissy.

Brown: They would have went to Berkeley, but Mother insisted on an Ivy. Blue hair, red flannel, white skin. They’ve got universal pass fail but it’s taboo to take advantage of the system. The creative version of every subject–their CompSci students go to Pixar and their Biomed students go to Calico.

Cornell: Engineers from old money families and Conrad Hilton fanboys. Are they depressed because they live in Ithaca or because of their crushing workloads? Teenage Kurt Vonneguts. Wealthy, but it’s not always obvious.

Columbia: In a one sided dick measuring contest with Yale. Heavy workloads, heavy drinking. Erudite, ambitious (and they know it). The angel to NYU’s devil. A fast track to the New York Times and Wall Street Journal.

Princeton: Secretly thinks Harvard is for the impoverished. Eating clubs. Well developed Econ and Math departments, but UChicago is catching up. Great undergraduate teaching, especially if you fit in with the culture.

Stanford: They’d have gone to Harvard, but California is the closest thing Earth’s got to Eden and Massachusetts is…clammy. Massive startup culture. Duck syndrome and stress culture. Elitist, especially about class and status, but somehow gets a pass.

Caltech: “Hey MIT, we’re you but stronger.” Pretends that test scores trump all other metrics of success, because they’re *Number One at the SAT, baby.* Something of a male dominated culture, lighthearted.

MIT: Robotics, engineering, business, and math. 90s computer nerd aesthetic but in an ironic way. Sunlight averse. 1) study hard 2) ??? 3) profit

Duke: Beautifully gothic. Has successfully implemented a caste system, albeit informally. Intelligent, southern socialites. United by basketball, divided by highschool-esque cliques.

UChicago: Will fight the Ivies on sight. Very good at Econ and Law with an intense classical “core” curriculum. Have your weekly panic attack in a stunning glass egg-inspired library. “If you study hard enough you can become God.”

Vanderbilt: The scent of Tennessee honey in the trees. Frat culture. Los Angeles’s beauty standards, Mississippi’s snark.

Johns Hopkins: Students are required to duel you if you call it “John Hopkin’s.” People who have been premed since third grade. Academically intense without being prestige obsessed–I’d cautiously call it “well balanced.” They’re there to become doctors and medical researchers, period.

Berkeley: Study while a riot between Trump Supporters and Antifa rages outside. If Calculus III has you down and depressed, pick up a can of mace and assault somebody. Competes with Stanford, is the champion of Public Universities. Insanely expensive area to live in. Most students are too absorbed in their academics (read: 3.3 GPA CompSci qualifier) to worry about much else.

UMich: Berkeley but with snow. Ann Arbor is as good as college towns get, but has almost dangerous levels of school spirit. International students with $4k apartments and $850 winter coats. “Harvard waitlisted me but I’m not even mad.”

UCLA: Everyone is a former premed. Valley girls and the Asian students they make problematic comments about. Frat guys lost in a scary world where you can’t pass a midterm with a hangover. Cal’s politically stable cousin.

USC: “The University of Spoiled Children” still rings true sometimes, but not as much anymore. There are some seriously competitive academic programs hidden behind Los Angeles’s gauzy party culture. Loyal alumni.

WUSTL: Cooperative with a competitive biology program. Low school spirit, largely because their last star athlete graduated in 1943. Prominent STEM culture, but not exactly nerdy. A midwestern fusion of Brown and Columbia.

Carnegie Mellon: UPitt’s smaller, bourgeois sister. Cliquey nerds–a Drama student would rather die than speak with an Engineer, and visa versa. CompSci champions.

Northwestern: Nerdwestern and Northwasted. They went to private high schools and it’s obvious. Show up to your Art History final drunk on rosé. A version of UChicago where you won’t get mugged on campus.

UWash: Architecture designed by Athena herself. The premed children of Microsoft engineers. White boys wearing colored socks and Nike sandals. Washington rains endlessly with the tears of tormented Amazon employees.

Rice: A refreshing dose of New England in the depths of Texas. “Hmm, Rice? I’ve never heard of it!” Spanish architecture, conquistador vibes. You’ve got a fair chance of finding the library packed at 1am, depending on what week it is. The MIT of the South.

Penn State: Drinking school with a football problem. Parties harder than Miami U. Not really bothered that they get confused with UPenn. Mild frat culture.

Boston University: Rich girls and self centered frat bros. Hipsters and hipster engineers. Athletes in the CGS (“Crayons, Glue, and Scissors”) school. Wealthy slackers who will regale you with tales of Martha’s Vineyard over break.

UVA: Preppy but not on purpose. Public school snobs. Southern-ish and definitely conservative. DC kids with a seemingly endless flow of money from home. The wealthiest, whitest school that’s not called Harvard.

LACs

Williams: Oxford and Harvard’s laid back son. Amherst can suck a dick. The bourgeois version of outdoorsy. Sports culture despite not being in a major division.

Amherst: Prelaw or business. Pastel polos, party drugs, and a general Gilded Age aesthetic. General distaste for the hoi polloi.

Swarthmore: “Swatkward.” Highly academic atmosphere, no time for social skills. Beautiful leafy campus. UPenn students aren’t shit compared to us. Stress culture so intense it would make a UChicago student weep.

Tufts: Don’t ask us if we got denied at the Ivies. Friendly, midsize school that maintains the atmosphere of an LAC. Very good International Relations and Philosophy (Dr. Daniel Dennett!) programs.

Reed: Swarthmore but with a lot of LSD. Atheism, communism, and free love. No one here knows a goddamn thing about sex ed. Nuclear reactor that students can train to work at.

Grinnell: Brown’s midwestern cousin. Concrete, glass, and corn. Well developed STEM programs, especially for an LAC. Close knit community, extreme hookup culture. Quirky. Emphasis on writing skill. Gigantic per-student endowment.

Carleton: Trimester system that intensifies the academic culture. Cold winters, warm hearts. Parties more than a typical LAC but there’s still a sense of awkwardness. The smart version of eccentric. Mini Northwestern.

Bowdoin: Not a single person here has ever known a moment of hardship. Dining hall food that could earn a Michelin star. Rich, white, and cliquey. A pretty significant “old sport” culture. Everyone pays full tuition.

Pomona: Like a university packaged as an LAC. All the benefits of California, located next to the Greatest American City—Los Angeles. Large endowment, lots of opportunities. Flagship of the Claremont colleges. Mini Stanford.

Harvey Mudd: A tiny population of quirky engineers. The one true STEM LAC. Mini MIT. Male dominated, socially awkward, highly academic.

Middlebury: Bourgeoisie teenagers in the wilderness. Has a reputation for excellent language programs despite that fame stemming largely from summer specific programs. Quirky, in a reserved way. An amalgam of Dartmouth and Columbia.

Oberlin: What conservatives think liberals are like. A dot of blue in a sea of red. Theatre, music, and dance. “My parents are making me double major in Econ.”

🌿 The moon in the houses🌿

🌸Moon in 1st - your moods are constantly flowing with the energy & moods around you, gifted with the moons natural “mother’s intuition” regardless of how you identify, close contact is important whether with soft clothes, a soft blanket, or with a significant other, maternal/feminine connections are important to you.

🌸Moon in 2nd - the home or individual may often contain embellishments as a beautiful & comfy home/self is important to them, they easily value deep & loyal friendships and relationships with those they love and care about, & they oftentimes fall into a cycle of holding onto things they might not necessarily need for “just in case” or sentimental purposes.

🌸Moon in 3rd - the moon is forever changing and with that these individuals may find themsleves changing their feelings, thoughts, & ideas quite often, they are often very artistic or talented in gardening/nature activities, naturally they are gifted with the moons “mother’s intuition” and they are quite romantic and empathetic.

🌸Moon in 4th - these individuals are often from very comforting backgrounds with a strong maternal/feminine influence, they often want to carry this maternal/feminine influence into their own homes & future families as well so they begin to mimic their parent(s) behaviors and adapts it into their own routine/family, with the influence of the moon being “at home” and the moon forever changing, they may move around a lot but their “roots” are an important part of who they are.

🌸Moon in 5th - with the influence of the moon thee people often want a family or a child - it can be very important for them, with the luminary influence at play here they can seem to have an “inner child” regardless of age, parties or get togethers with close family and friends is their idea of fun as they are often sentimental and family/friend oriented, often flirtatious and romantic & their dating life can be all over the place as the moon moves through phases rather quickly.

🌸Moon in 6th - this can bring forth an individual who craves routine and finds comfort in that routine although they might not always receive routine, they can enjoy staying busy but for them they often move onto the next job quickly as the moon itself moves quickly, for them things like cleaning/cooking/gardening or other “feminine” or “cleanly/nurturing” things can come easily to them and important, they find comfort in their habits whether negative or positive.

🌸Moon in 7th - the moon can bring an aspect of craving to bond with another - a friend, lover, pet even. That & the fastness of the moon can bring frequent lovers and becoming in and out of relationships often or jumping from one relationship to another, femininity and intuition are strong and important aspects to this individual - for men, it can indicate a desire for a more feminine partner, for women it can indicate them being that feminine partner.

🌸Moon in 8th - often very connected to things beyond the physical realm and easily detect energies or are naturally intuitive, sexual relationships are often deep - or at least that’s what these individuals crave in another, highly romantic but can seek relationships out of a need for security, this combination creates deep and intense emotions but the moon can cause a fluctuation and these moods tend to pass quickly causing them to come off as “moody.”

🌸Moon in 9th - their belief systems can easily be swayed by their emotions and can often change, with the influence of the moon these individuals can often be quite spiritual or intuitive in nature, with the quickness of the moon these individuals can have a strong love of freedom and travel - they love to learn and experience, natural dreamers with high expectations/hopes.

🌸Moon in 10th - the moon can create an emotional component to their image & how they see themselves - they can often care a great deal about how they come off, maybe even be a little insecure about themselves. Business and career won’t always be steady but they can easily draw in their creativity when needed. The women in their lives - Perhaps their mother - can be quite strong or masculine figures.

🌸Moon in 11th - the feminine energy can come in abundance in the house of the 11th, their friendships and outer relationships can oftentimes aide to their self confidence and self perception, with the movement of the moon & it’s emotional nature it can indicate ins & outs with friends. They feel best in groups and can even struggle with being alone or feeling lonely.

🌸Moon in 12th - with the depth of the moon & 12th house these people are naturally intuitive & gifted empaths, like moon in 8th these people can have an easier time detecting energies and things beyond the physical realm, their emotions may easily be hidden from others and sometimes their feelings may feel detached from themselves, often connected to past lives through dreams or even their fears.

SATURN THROUGHOUT THE HOUSES🌟✨✨

Saturn is considered a malefic planet, because of the frustrations and challenges that it causes in one’s life. However, these challenges will come to shape a person and transform them into a stronger version of who they used to be. Unlike Jupiter’s expansive ways, Saturn helps people grow by taking away everything and forcing them to grow on their own. Saturn (in my opinion) is not just about restriction, it is about the steady progression of a person over time and blossoming all on your own.

SATURN IN THE FIRST HOUSE: You fear that others will not know who you are, that all that you will leave in your wake is spaces and that none of them will be filled with your name. Your identity is a wound that is buried deep, something that you fear cannot retrieved. Saturn has left you with nothing to define who you are, what you are, or what you want others to see. You must build yourself from the rough ground up, identities that are not identities and are only masks will surely fail, as you have to build not just yourself but your authentic self. You entered this world without yourself but you will leave with yourself, make sure that the person that you claim as yourself is you, only you, and absolutely no one else. How to help yourself grow: Let go of anything that is apart of you that is not you, do not fear who you really are, allow your identity to take hold, be patient and forgiving with yourself, self discovery will take time

SATURN IN THE SECOND HOUSE: What you fear most on this earth is a loss of security and a loss of worth. You fear that you and your life are not secure. You fear that you and your life are worth nothing. Above all you fear that there is nothing in your grasp, that both your life and you will slip through your fingers like smooth beach sand, and that they will never return again. A person that feels unworthy will surround themselves with material worth, and Saturn will take these things away again and again and again until you learn to value what truly matters, yourself. One of Saturn’s biggest lessons in life will be that you cannot be truly wealthy until you no longer think that you are nothing, your insecurities and your preconceived negative ideas about yourself will harm you and what you own. In Saturn’s eyes, a person that does not love themselves will not grow. If you cannot value yourself, then how would you be able to truly value anything else? How to help yourself grow: Write down everything that you love and value about yourself, do not get too caught up in materialism, find worth within, do not let money get the best of you, appreciate the simple, uncomplicated things

SATURN IN THE THIRD HOUSE: You fear that your voice will fall flat against ears that never wanted to listen. You fear that you and your verbal and written form of self expression are nonexistent. Saturn has taken away both the tongue and the pen and through out life you must rebuild a long forgotten voice. I promise that from you beautiful words will learn to bloom. A lifetime of listening will lead to a thousand ways to speak, in many ways your words will never leave. Speak only what is on your mind and on your heart, words that are not yours will fall backwards down your throat. From your words you will truly move, from your movements you will truly speak.Release all of the moments that you wish you had said something from your childhood. Release any negative critiques about the way that you speak. Release anyone from your life that makes a mockery of what comes from your mind and your heart. You are you and you must learn that your words are not cursed, they are only meant to grow. How to help yourself grow: Write down everything that you’ve been holding in, speak everything that you’ve been holding in to someone you trust, reach out to others, create positive associations with communication, don’t forget to breathe and to relax when you speak

SATURN IN THE FOURTH HOUSE: One of the fears in your life was birthed from your childhood and your home. A lack of affection and nurturing when you were younger makes you no one’s child. A lack of a comforting and steady home when you were younger makes nowhere a home. Saturn has taken away the ability to feel as if you belong, the comfort associated with a childhood, a place that makes you feel warm. With many years of unrelenting patience and allowing yourself time, you will become both the nurturer and the home, instead of seeking comfort in people or places that become cold you will take advantage of the warmth that is your own. No one and nothing can replace your childhood, no one and nothing can replace a home. Every time that you attempt to see someone/something as a source of comfort and warmth Saturn will take that away from you over and over, time and time again, until you learn that you must be your own mother. Your own father. Your own nurturer. It may seem tough but false security in another is tougher. Lose home. Find home. Make home. Don’t go back at all. How to help yourself grow: Have a self care days, take time to watch cartoons from your childhood or to do things that you used to enjoy, create positive affirmations for yourself, know in your heart that your family does not define you

SATURN IN THE FIFTH HOUSE: You fear being overlooked. You fear letting yourself roam. You fear letting yourself go. You are stuck within the pattern of fearing that you can never be enough and that you will never be enough, that everyone else can glow but you cannot glow too. Maybe you have talents but choose to not show them. Maybe you do not know what your own talents are. And ask yourself, truly, deeply, down to your heart, did you ever give them enough room to grow? To move? To glow? Talents cannot thrive without you giving them space. Talents will not manifest unless you learn to give yourself encouragement. Creativity will lie in an eternal sleep until you allow yourself to dream. Saturn has taken away your talents and expects for you to discover them on your own, for you to allow them to thrive and grow. Expression through the arts is, dare I say, what life is all about, and Saturn will not let you attain them easily. To get them you will truly, verily, whatever you want to say, have to reach. Reach in a heart. Reach in a mind. Reach in forgotten emotions and forgotten thoughts. In time you will radiate from within. How to help yourself grow: Try things that you’d never think you’d be good at, express your creativity and who you are through art, let go and let loose, know that is okay to enjoy receiving attention, do not restrict yourself

SATURN IN THE SIXTH HOUSE: In life you will come to find that you fear degradation. Failure. Falling behind. You do not want to be left in the dust that you have set for yourself so you work and you work until there is nothing left. Saturn has taken away the ability to know when it is time to rest. When it is safe. When you don’t have to work anymore. A life of labor not broken up by personal relaxation will surely take a toll on your body, from your head to your torso to your thighs, every illness and ailment that you fear at night. Detiorating your mind will deteriorate your body until you waste away into someone that is not you and someone that will never be you. Release the long kept tension from your shoulders. Unclench your tightened jaw. Release your hands from any unnatural form that they are in. Release any remaining negative inner thoughts. You do not always have to be unmistakeably present and alert. Sometimes the best rest of all is allowing yourself to exist. Allow yourself into a personal world that is free of labor and one that is kind. How to help yourself grow: Take a day off from any and all work, break out of routine and be spontaneous, if you have forgotten to take any medication make sure you take it now, listen to any aches and pains in your body, eat something nourishing and healthy, go somewhere calm and free of stress (like somewhere in nature).

SATURN IN THE SEVENTH HOUSE: Above all, you fear being alone. Being incomplete. Never being whole. You have lost yourself years and years ago and you cannot bear to let your old self go so you find who you were in soft eyes. Supple skin. Someone that will lay with you at night. Unknowingly the lover that you seek out is you, unknowingly you seek a lover from yourself. There is a tender, cautious, way to your love. You want who you love to be someone who can make you whole. Someone that will tell you where the rest of you has gone. Someone that will make you feel less alone. Saturn has taken away the ability to find yourself within yourself, there is an unmistakeable theme in your life of finding yourself in others. Making yourself in others. Becoming yourself in others. You will/have come to find out that you cannot make others your home. Your anchor. Yourself. Love will not be forever until you learn that only you can inhabit your own bones, that the best representation of yourself is yourself and no one else. You owe an apology to yourself. Take as long as you need. How to help yourself grow: Put yourself above everyone else, find love that holds you not love that defines you, when you are stressed try aromatherapy, do not let anyone convince you that you need them

SATURN IN THE EIGHTH HOUSE: You fear that through your own confessions they will control you. You fear what they will make of your heart, and I don’t mean an airy, romantic heart, I mean your secretive, aching, closed off, actual heart. You believe that as long as you do not reveal yourself to be vulnerable they will never hurt you, that as long as you never let them hurt you that you will never be vulnerable. Past wounds left to fester aren’t in the past at all, they are present. Everything bubbling beneath the surface of a cool and distant exterior will eventually begin to rot if you do not allow it to breathe. Saturn has taken away your trust in others and you must learn what trust is. Everything that you have dreamt has hurt you is just that, a dream, the world is not as cruel and as ruthless as you may have made it out to be. Some people are kind. Some people are soft. Some people aren’t mean at all. Do not allow your fear of being uncovered isolate you. The world is so much more than what it seems. How to help yourself grow: Find someone that you trust deeply and let it all out, write poetry to describe your feelings, learn to trust yourself and others, do not fear what may lurk in the dark

SATURN IN THE NINTH HOUSE: A fear for you is believing in wrong or impractical things. That you have reached too high for the stars and have instead been burned by the sun, that what you have always known about the earth will always be the only thing that you know. Overall you fear getting everything wrong. Learning what “to believe” really means.How it feels to truly not know. Saturn has taken away your freedom and you must reclaim it, in the wind that is swept over grass, in the limitless movement of clouds across the sky, in the way that songbirds unabashadely sing. Who has decides what is wrong and what is right? Who decides that something is not worthy in believing in? Who decides all of these things that are set in time? Your body wants freedom. Your mind wants freedom. Your heart is a caged bird. Learn that when you lose one belief that you can make another. That personal doubt in a certain philosophy is not the end of the world. You are meant to question. Meant to learn. Meant to re-evaluate and to rethink. And above all other concepts and ideas, you are meant to expand. How to help yourself grow: Learn about new philosophies and ideas, read tons of literature, keep an open mind, be free in nature, take a long trip somewhere new and fresh, escape from the four walls that we call a home.

SATURN IN THE TENTH HOUSE: You fear disappointing humanity as a whole. Falling behind in your work. Not getting proper recognition for what you know you deserve. Somewhere in life something has taught you that without other’s gratification you are not whole. Critical reviews of your character, being seen as detriment to the work force, never being enough for anyone or anything, these are the things that you fear most. Saturn has taken away your ability to be proud of yourself so you seek it in others. Constantly proving yourself, constantly setting goals two steps ahead of yourself, throwing yourself at task after task until you believe that you have proved that you are enough (and for you nothing will ever be enough). There is a cycle here, and it will end in the destruction of self unless you learn that you are enough on your own. You do not have to prove your worth. You do not have to prove that you are hard at work. You do not have to prove yourself to anything or anyone, you just have to learn to trust your abilities and to trust yourself. As long as you begin to appreciate yourself others will always see the strong work ethic that you possess, the only way to prove yourself to others is to prove yourself to yourself. How to help yourself grow: Take time off from work, make a list of everything you’ve accomplished (and it doesn’t have to be anything big), take time to truly appreciate all that you’ve done, treat yourself to a relaxing and soothing day

SATURN IN THE ELEVENTH HOUSE: You fear never finding a place in society to call home. Being rejected, being seen as the outcast, being ostracized, they are all fears that you harbor deep within your heart. Society has shut you out before so you become stagnant in loneliness, in isolation, in the fear of approaching others. Saturn has taken away the ability to know where you fit in and who you fit in with, and thus has created a painful and lonely road. And through that you have to learn one thing. Society cannot exist without you. Society is everyone and if society is everyone then it is you too. There is a place in society for you because you help make up society, and no one, not even you, can change that. Do not fear being eternally alone, outcasted to the outskirts of social groups, someone that is ignored. Once you learn that the key to “fitting in” is that there is really no such thing as “fitting in”, society is the amalgation of people with different feelings and different experiences, you will let others in. How to help yourself grow: Attempt to befriend those that are truly kind, instead of people watching become the person that others are watching, engage in clubs and groups, smile back at people who smile at you, accept compliments (or compliment yourself!).

SATURN IN THE TWELFTH HOUSE: Above all, your story is the story of water. Watery depths inconceivable by man, the capacity to hold other’s struggles as endless as the ocean, the amazing ability of the surface of water to shield the rest of the water from being exposed. Saturn has taken away your ability to allow yourself to bloom, to clear murky waters, to finally accept struggles that are your own. Reality may seem as unattainable as world peace, and you may ask yourself what are the distinguishing traits of something real and of something imagined. To bloom you must understand what has hurt you, and to understand what has hurt you you must bloom. Having your hardships and your emotions out in the open is not a sure way to be harmed, reality may be reality but it is not always harsh. Imagination may be imagination but it is not always kind. Everything buried deep in the ocean will rise to the surface in time, and it is better to be comfortable with your emotions being uncovered instead of being caught off guard. Create roots. Create growth. Bloom. How to help yourself grow: Put your imagination in writing, try to stay engaged in reality, if you disassociate use your five senses (if you are able to)to ground yourself (sight, touch, smell, taste, and hearing), be near or live near the ocean
