Astrology - Blog Posts
My chart lacks fire so I always attract Leo and Aries placements. Which is such a shame because they annoy the shit out of me, yet I can't help but keep them around anyways lol
Seeing someone with the same specific set of natal placements can be so funny because it's like, "ah I see you've also been afflicted by the curse"
Virgo moon culture is striving for perfection even in your self care routines where you're meant to relax, but you just end up stressing yourself out even more lol
Having Chiron square Mercury in the 3rd house (with Mercury square Saturn)
Edit; not to mention the overthinking!!!

New Who Companions + birthday and signs
The Royal Signs V:
Aries: The King of Sails and Oars. Colony ships across the sea, refugees from a home abandoned. Nights on the bow in the salt-sewn wind, following the melody from the deep that only he can hear.
Taurus: A king born on horseback. Inheritor to a legacy of blood and empire. Warpaths leveraged into trade routes that flow with silks and silver. New life breathed into an empire that will never truly forget its roots.
Gemini: The Builder. The Queen of Nine Rivers. Highways that cut through the rolling savanna. Gold from the south, salt from the north, but from her court flows knowledge.
Cancer: One more throne to the court. A palanquin in radiant gold carries the new king to his throne. There he sits, the newest addition to the dozens of thrones behind him, all baring the mummies of his predecessors.
Leo: A young prince, playing with the common children in the market square. Free to enjoy the puddles and morning air, safe in the knowledge that the sniper who guards him is watching from the rooftops.
Virgo: A Pirate Queen. War drums haunt the treasure ships. A captured shipment of ancient, enchanted metal, more valuable than any gold or silver.
Libra: A king in willing exile. A king who sought the gentle dark, who made a home in the alien places where his father feared to tread. Scars of rebellion turned to marks of pride.
Scorpio: A queen in silks invites foreign dignitaries to tea in her private garden. As she listens to their words she coos over her pet mantises, secretly relishing the guests discomfort.
Ophiuchus: The clan mother. A woman of great age and wisdom. A banner of patches in a thousand colors and patters. Pipe smoke drifting from the folds of a coat made in similar fashion.
Sagittarius: A Queen of Bone and Honey. An ancient song drifts across the boreal forest. A queen in lush furs, now flanked by a court of extremely fluffy cows. Dull copper bells rattle in time with her song.
Capricorn: A king of unearned radiance. A tyrant in lavish surroundings, cast unceremoniously into a dry well. The priestesses said his blood was spoiled, unfit for the earth.
Aquarius: A queen by title, but not by action. A childhood friend, a seamstress with a laugh gentle and kind as a warm spring afternoon.
Pisces: A holy king, a king in penance. Inheritor to the sins of his lineage. A gentle hand of iron. Shows of fervor for the world to see. Molten gold scarring flesh.
Here’s my design of zodiac signs, my fav are Leo, Capricorn and Cancer. I hope you’ll like it all c:
The Signs and Ruin:
Aries: A city in the center of a great river. The bridges long destroyed, the hanging gardens overgrown. An ancient and forbidden place.
Taurus: Whats left of the old college. Taken by a summer flood and frozen in place when winter came. The basement library is still preserved under the ice.
Gemini: The prison ghetto. Eventually the slave ships stopped coming and the town overtook these hopeless stone walls. Cursed stone re-purposed into homes, basking in the light.
Cancer: A secluded, but stately manor. Iron gates still closed and sealed shut. The home within the walls is a burned husk. The garden flourishes in the ash.
Leo: A village left seemingly abandoned. The trees are all barren and fruitless. The sun seems dimmer here.
Virgo: The dry caldera. Spires of a great forge still jut from the rock at an odd angles, like the masts of a sinking ship. Ore flues clogged with stone cool as the spring air.
Libra: The remains of an aqueduct. Pillars of stone and masonry dotting the fields of wildflowers. Nobody can remember where they got the water from, or where it went.
Scorpio: The bay of kings. Stone colossi stand with blades thrust into the surf. Their faces have been worn smooth by the years. None of the fishermen remember their names.
Ophiuchus: Low structures cut in the canyon walls. Stairways and boulevards like the paths of the river below. The remnants of stakes for rope bridges.
Sagittarius: A tiny, crumbling amphitheater outside of town. A map of the heavens carved into the stage, carved by a different hand from the one who made the theater itself.
Capricorn: The city that tears the clouds, suspended between two mountains. Impossibly fine stonework, yet the windmills have long since rotted away. The air itself is thin here.
Aquarius: Dust storms on brass domes, spires overcome by sand. A low, ringing, song echoes over the dune seas. An elegy for something that should remain lost.
Pisces: Impossible walls of smooth, darkened stone jutting from the waves. Labyrinthine corridors wide enough for even the largest warships. Countless smashed hulls clog the unmapped waters.
I actually love knowing my chart a lot more than I thought I would

EDIT: Mercury is stationed direct on Jan 1st, 2024. The source I used which stated it was in retrograde until the 18th had a typo.
EDIT: Fixed the zodiac signs for the full moons using a new source.
