i always see people on tiktok tryna get real accurate with makeup looks for the astrology placements but somehow the comments are never pleased, so ill try tell yall MY hottakes and again, it‘s up to you to decide whether you follow my opinions or nah. on tiktok, i often see mentions of venus and the rising when talking about makeup, but in my PERSONAL life, i‘ve noticed venus is more about how i view beauty and not how what is beautiful on my self. soo, i came to the conclusion to mix the rising and the mars.

people with the sun, moon, or rising in purva bhādrapadā often live like prisoners in plato’s cave (the allegory of the cave), confined by shadows that appear real, unaware of the greater reality beyond. they perceive the strings, walls, and flickering images that define conventional existence, and they feel an innate pull to look past them, to glimpse the truth beyond appearances. like the figure in the flammarion engraving, they lean beyond the horizon, straining to see the hidden cosmos, the machinery, the laws, the infinite forces that shape life beyond the cave. mentally, they are intensely curious, analytical, and visionary, fascinated by patterns, systems, and the unseen connections that structure the world. unlike uttara phalguni, who finds security in sustaining, organizing, and supporting, purva bhādrapadā thrives in the tension of the unknown, questioning reality, roles, and social constructs.

psychologically, purva bhādrapadā wrestles with awe, fear, and disorientation. stepping out of the cave exposes them to the raw light of truth: they realize that life is a play, that appearances are provisional, and that social norms are constructs maintained by collective belief. this awareness can be both exhilarating and isolating; they see clearly, yet feel the alienation of perceiving what others cannot. their inner motto often becomes: should i remain in comfort among shadows, or face the disorienting light beyond, even at great cost? this tension defines their inner life: curiosity mixed with fear, vision intertwined with vulnerability.

socially, they are enigmatic, magnetic, and often misunderstood. they attract seekers, thinkers, and those drawn to depth, yet their insights can unsettle or challenge others, provoking resistance. they do not guide through authority or control, but through revelation: inspiring, awakening, and opening the eyes of others without imposing. they are the seekers, the explorers of consciousness, and the ones who catalyze awareness beyond the ordinary.

the symbolism of purva bhādrapadā, the dual stars, the fire, the transitional stage, mirrors their journey. they are the prisoner turning toward the light, the figure in the flammarion engraving peering beyond the sky, the mind reaching past boundaries that define illusion. their path is about recognizing the layers of life, understanding the play behind appearances, and daring to step into the vast unknown. they teach that the visible is only a shadow, and the true architecture of existence is revealed to those who move beyond fear.

after the illumination of purva bhādrapadā comes uttara bhādrapadā, symbolized by the back of the funeral cot. if purva bhādrapadā is the seeker confronting truth, uttara bhādrapadā is the one who faces the consequences of seeing it fully. in plato’s allegory, this is the figure who gets out to the cave and is killed by those who cling to illusion, the martyr who bears knowledge too potent for the comfort of the masses. uttara bhādrapadā embodies death, transformation, and letting go. the self, the structures, the roles, the attachments, all must be released. this nakshatra represents the ultimate confrontation with impermanence, the realization that truth often comes at the cost of ego, comfort, and stability. it is the stage of endings, of profound transition, and of the dissolution of false anchors.

cosmically, purva bhādrapadā and uttara bhādrapadā form a continuum: the first seeks the hidden, confronts illusion, and pierces the veil; the second embodies the completion, sacrifice, death.

beyond both lies revati, the final stage of the arc, representing transcendence, infinite flow, and cosmic liberation. if purva bhādrapadā is the prisoner turning toward the light, and uttara bhādrapadā is the martyr confronting mortality, dying, revati is the soul released into the infinite, moving beyond shadow and form entirely. this is the cosmic ocean of awareness, where the self merges with the eternal, and the dualities of seeker and known, life and death, anchor and flight dissolve into pure consciousness. it is liberation, the infinite beyond the cave, the horizon past the horizon, the space that the figure in the flammarion engraving longs to glimpse.

their journey across these nakshatras is a full philosophical arc: purva bhādrapadā pierces illusion and recognizes life as play; uttara bhādrapadā is the death after stepping out of all illusion, as the cost of truth; revati embraces transcendence, merging with the infinite, and embodying the flow of all existence after death.

2025

2025 started off a very lonely and isolating year. Very early into the year, I could feel many things needed a reset, so I tried to view everything from an outer perspective. Rather than being consumed by the present, I viewed everything as if I was a passive observer and tried to change the way I went about things. I realised I needed to reconnect with things I used to love and began painting and watching anime again. As silly as it sounds, it actually healed me little by little.

But then, nearing the the summer, I went through the same cycle of 2024. I realised 2025 was trying to teach me a lesson, but I couldnt quite put my finger on it as to what it was trying to convey, so again, I opted to isolation. It took the whole of 2025 for me to realise that isolating myself isn’t the right path to take constantly. I had to rememeber there were people who were there for me, but it still was rough to even GET to that realisation.

Another thing I learned is that I was putting up a facade daily. I was being performative and wasnt true to myself at all. I remember I kept trying to find myself in characters from shows, daily trying to fit myself into this box, into a category, until I realised I was far more complex than that. I wasn‘t one genre. I was literally 100 books and shows AND more. That was the gift I recieved from my isolation, self love. 2025 was the year I truly met myself. 2025 allowed me to mess up and restart so often, like a legitimate trial and error. I was truly blessed this year to get this many chances, even throughout hardships.

SEE NO EVIL, HEAR NO EVIL, SPEAK NO EVIL + ASTROLOGY:

There is an ancient symbol that lingers at the edges of human consciousness, three monkeys, each representing a gesture of refusal. Onwe covers its eyes, another its mouth, the last its ears. “See no evil, speak no evil, hear no evil,” they say.

At first glance, it may appear a simple morality tale: an instruction to remain pure, untouched by the wickedness of the world. But deeper contemplation reveals a labyrinth of meanings, and in each meaning, a mirror to the soul. Especially the darkness of the soul.

To see no evil is not to deny the existence of evil, but to recognize the subtle tyranny of perception. The eyes are doors through which the outer world floods in, often uninvited. To close them against evil is to acknowledge that perception itself can wound us, that to allow the image of cruelty to remain in the mind is to give it life newly within. Yet, is blindness a hidden moral compass, or is it ignorance? In refusing to see, do we preserve innocence or betray reality?

To speak no evil is to understand the terrible power of language. Speech is the most direct bridge between inner thought and outer consequence. Words are seeds: once spoken, they fall into the soil of other minds, where they may blossom into hatred, love, fear, or hope. To guard the mouth is to achieve a profound form of discipline, to recognize that a careless word can be a kind of violence. And yet, silence too can be a form of cruelty. In not naming evil, do we become an ally of it? Is speech a sword to be drawn carefully or a flame to be hidden under fear?

To hear no evil is perhaps the most mysterious of the three. The ears, unlike the eyes, cannot close themselves. Sound infiltrates even the most resistant soul. To refuse to hear evil is thus an act of internal fortitude, a rejection not of sound itself, but of allowing its poison to take root. But again, we must ask: is refusal to hear a path to peace, or a retreat from the duty of bearing witness?

In the end, perhaps the truest teaching is this: Evil exists not merely outside of us, but within. The covering hands of the monkeys are a reminder that the first evil to confront is the one born in our own perceptions, our own words, our own listening. The work is not to erase evil from the world, but to refuse to let it be mirrored in our own being.

What we might learn from this: Everything is true but nothing is true. As Meurcault by Albert Camus from The Stranger believes.

In what placements we see these archetypes:

SEE NO EVIL

or 12th House placements/ Pisces placements/ Moon + Venus Dominants

• Neptune governs spiritual vision, compassion, and illusion—choosing to “see” with the soul, not just the eyes.

• 12th House is the realm of hidden truths and the unconscious; avoiding evil through spiritual detachment.

• Also relates to Venus in Libra: choosing to see beauty, not ugliness or conflict.

• Moon in Pisces – highly empathic, may emotionally “tune out” harsh visuals or disturbing realities.

• Could be seen in Venus in Sagittarius – chooses to focus on the bigger picture, beauty, and philosophy over drama and detail.

• Ascendant in Cancer or Pisces – sensitive to energy; filters external visuals to protect emotional well-being.

•Sun in 12th House - Identity partially hidden or inward-facing. May avoid confronting external ego conflicts—sees through intuition instead of confrotation

• South Node in Libra/ North Node in Aries - Has a karmic pattern of avoiding conflict or seeing only the “nice” side of things. Soul evolution comes through seeing harsh truth with courage.

HEAR NO EVIL:

Mercury and Moon relevancy + 3rd House

• Mercury in Taurus – listens slowly and selectively; dislikes mental clutter or drama.

• Mercury in Scorpio - Hears everything, including subtext, lies, or manipulation. Chooses silence unless truth must be revealed. Rejects superficial or noisy input.

• Mercury in Pisces/Cancer (Very evident)

• Mercury retrograde (in any sign) - Naturally inward-facing thinker. Processes speech internally first, often skeptical of outer input. Tends to mistrust surface noise.

• Moon in Libra - Needs harmony in relationships. May ignore conflict or negativity to keep peace; dislikes loud or offensive speech.

• Moon in Aquarius - Detaches from emotional noise. Can observe drama without internalizing it. Hears with logic more than feeling.

• Chiron in Gemini or 3rd House - Deep wound around speech and hearing—may come from childhood ridicule, harsh words, or chaotic environments. Healing comes through mindful listening and silence.

• South Node in Leo/ North Node in Aquarius - Soul path involves detaching from ego-driven noise and moving toward collective insight. Learns to filter personal drama out.

SPEAK NO EVIL:

Mainly Saturn/Mercury + Silence is Power and Pluto Influences

• Mercury in Virgo - Speaks precisely and purposefully. Avoids exaggeration, slander, or emotional drama. Can be critical, but often internally. May over-edit speech.

• Mercury in Scorpio - Holds secrets. Speech is powerful, controlled, and often laced with deeper insight. Won’t speak unless it’s meaningful—or piercing.

• Mercury in Capricorn - Deliberate, serious communicator. Avoids frivolous speech. Speaks when necessary, usually to add value, structure, or truth.

• Mercury Conjuct Saturn - Speech is cautious, filtered, and often burdened with self-monitoring. Tendency to be quiet, thoughtful, or struggle to express freely—may “err on the side of silence.”

• Mercury Square Saturn - Feels responsibility around words. May have learned hard lessons through speech (guilt, backlash, miscommunication). Leads to cautious speech patterns.

• Saturn in 3rd House - Structured, sometimes sparse communication. Learns lessons around restraint in speech, or may experience karmic restrictions in early life communication.

• Mercury in 12th House - Inner dialogue is rich, but speech may be hidden, poetic, or secretive. Communicates from behind a veil; avoids directness.

• Moon in Scorpio/12th House - Keeps feelings under lock and key. Emotionally silent when hurt. Speech emerges only when trust is deep.

• South Node in Gemini/North Node in Sagittarius - Past life tendency to overtalk, gossip, or scatter information. Evolution involves learning to speak with higher purpose—or to embrace silence and spiritual speech.

• Pluto in 3rd House - Speaks very little—or very powerfully. Can be a word alchemist. Uses silence or speech to influence others deeply.

what if we’re libra mars and scorpio rising 🥹🥹🥹

that is such a cool mix i just know youre fine asfff alr so i think your libra mars is like cutting a bit of the intensity of the scorpio mars so maybe go for that dark feminine look but still keep the face romantic so by that i mean not going crazy on the eye area with dark shades but still using lashes and a bit of eyeshadow to create a wing potentiallyy also for the lips enhance them aswell !

but if you have a very adaptable face you can combine the two looks or go one day completely w scorpio makeup and one w libra

You are amazing dear ,I read your post on makeup astrology now I know why I am drawn to that kind of makeup . Btw ,I am Capricorn mars and Taurus rising . Thank you 😊

hiii!! tysmmm i rlly tried <3 (i saw u reblogged asking for leo saturn 4h and capricorn mars 9h in nail astrology) and those two energies i feel like are intertwined but also against eachother so i made two options

i feel like you can either go for the more mature look, less sharp more homey. as it is in the 4th house. a more relaxed and comfortable look. shorter too. also adding colors like brown, beige and such (saturn vibes of responsibility)
