Mutable signs (Gemini, Virgo, Pisces, Sagittarius): “I wish every day could be Halloween. We could all wear masks all the time. Then we could walk around and get to know each other before we got to see what we looked like under the masks.”

Scorpio Placements: “People being nice for no apparent reason always made me suspicious. People being nice to me with no apparent reason made me even more suspicious.”
Gemini Venus, Sun, Moon, Jupiter, Mercury in the 3rd house: “And all the books you've read have been read by other people. And all the songs you've loved have been heard by other people.
