Don't forget racism too, a black teen girl will experience all of that policing PLUS if she uses ebonics/AAVE she'll be labeled by the white patriarchy as "ghetto" (to put it in arguably one of the less derogatory ways).
Want to understand your 8H and 12H better?
Deal with your 4th House first.
The 4H is angular, it has a much stronger influence than the other two, but it also forms a trine aspect to them both. 4H is your childhood, your parents/ancestors, it can also be where the root of +
Blocked a lot of people in the comments for Cancer hate and I'm not sorry.
But also, Cancer is the Fire of Water, people just don't see it bc they don't respect the leadership qualities of Cancer.
Also, Cancer holds the SUMMER solstice, the beginning of FIRE season.
My ideal resume be looking like

- cannabis cultivator
- sexual health educator
- holistic healer
- artist
No I am not a Mutable Rising, somehow
your traumas lie because symbolically it represents the depths of the earth and the Underworld.
Maybe the 8th and 12th houses can't "see" the light of the Ascendant, but they can "see" the Underworld perfectly.
Food for thought.
The 5H is the house of sex, but the Eighth is, derivatively, the 4th House to the 5th, so it can be where our attitudes about sex stem from. This checks out bc House 8 represents other peoples' values, inheritances, debts; perhaps this is why we attach so much "worth" to +
Just found out that Greta Thunberg is a double Capricorn so if you want an example of Cap that *doesn't* hinge on capitalism, she's a really solid one.
Saturn can work through Cap toward environmental causes bc it is preservation of natural order (Earth)
Cancer doesn't open up as easily bc it gets used to being diminished and gaslit by people that don't respect how deeply they feel things. They have every eight to be self-protective.
A high divorce rate is an interesting thing bc on 1 hand it means ppl aren't feeling forced to stay in unhappy marriages, but also how much of it could b avoided by marrying some1 u actually like rather than just tolerate, yk?
@MadelineDeCotes
Taurus does all its best work when nobody is looking, so all the work will be done and we can just focus on relaxing from there on out.
Can we please accept that any and all of the planets can be used to further capitalism?
We literally cannot pin it on a single fucking archetype.

Anti-capitalist Capricorn makes me think of environmentalists and people who are passionate about modern homesteading. Natural, renewable resources are a perfect Saturn-ruled Earth concept, and sustainable living.
Being emotionally expressive is not the same thing as lacking control over your emotions.
Repressing and denying your emotions gives you *less* control over them.
@thenewyorka
They made it through Saturn's trials, bc the square is where you're forced to confront and evaluate if the relationship is going where you want it to go, if it aligns with your intentions, etc., but that's also contingent on being willing to do that work.

I just want Twitter to have a more functional/comprehensive search feature so I can find that one tweet from seven months ago without having to scroll through 4,732 randos to retrieve it.
Hypothesis:
4th House represents your shadow, roots of your traumas, generational curses.
8H is how that shadow manifests in your interpersonal relationships.
12H is the side of you that comes out swinging when you're triggered bc you've compartmentalized it.

As a Marylander and a Cancer Sun, this is probably as good as it gets for pride in one's sign because Maryland natives are aggressively proud of our state flag and our blue crabs 😂 I don't hate it though.
Nakshatra twitter being mostly women and the obsession with sex/beauty/love isn't a coincidence. Women and girls are still socialized into a world that only values them if they are attractive to men, and that conditioning can be hard to break away from. 🧵
Rohini is the seductress/seducer people think Ashlesha is.
Not to say Ashlesha isn't or can't be seductive, but Rohini actively delights in tempting you to indulge in sensuous pleasures.
I wish I could petition for people who don't know astrology beyond Sun sign horoscope columns - and don't care to know - to shut the fuck up about astrology.
Astrologically, today is the “First Point of Aries,” when the Sun first visits the constellation Aries on the sky. But precession of Earth’s axis over the millennia has placed this First Point of Aries squarely in Pisces.
Further evidence that astrology is bullshit.

I'm all for people doing their shadow work and whatnot but the fixation on these two houses is starting to look like competing to see who's the darkest/most traumatized/powerful/sexy????

Normally I am in agreement with you, but on this I simply cannot. The apology offered was insincere at best and was used as an opportunity to promote herself. Her personal tweets have been tone-deaf at best and she has used her privilege as a rich, white, conventionally +
I propose that the new sign for Cancer should be an elephant. They're family/community oriented, generally mind their business unless you're a threat, matriarchal, and are famous for their long memories.
JSYK, "I get bad vibes" ppl & "I need evidence/receipts" ppl are NOT enemies!
The intuitive people are the ones who give the evidence folk a reason to investigate so they can inform each other.
@missbigspreads
Sexual liberation. Shadow work around gender/sexuality. Empowerment. Refusal to submit. Reclaiming your power.
Arguably, Lilith can be Saturnian! She (I identify w/ Lilith as feminine) is associated with rebellion, outsiders/outcasts, and at her worst is said to devour children.
Per the conversation w/

Unpopular opinion: the occult (and in certain cases, magic) is mainly a 3H matter.
3H is where the Moon rejoices, the Moon ruling imagination, manifestation, light shining in the darkness and the 3H is symbolically under the earth, i.e. cannot be seen.
@christaleisays
I couldn't avoid oppositions even if I wanted to!
I really believe they're a good aspect to have for the long term since oppositions are Saturnian by nature, and Saturn is all about the long haul.
Thinking about how the Saxons/English used to complain about the fact that the Vikings/Norse were too attractive to local women because they bathed regularly and kept their beards and hair neat

9th. The 9th House is the house of higher education and religion, but it's also the place of divination, consultants, and people we seek advice from (such as astrologers). Astrology also used to be taught in universities.
@guapunzel
This is why I loved being on top honestly. I rarely had truly bad sex bc even if the guy wasn't willing to put in the work, I could grind on him the way I wanted so I could get myself off with or without his help.
The 4th House holds more influence over your shadow than the 8th and 12th Houses do.
Also, modern astros should learn traditional astrology even if they don't intend to practice traditional bc it will enhance their practice.
This is a SHORT KING stan account, if you are a man or masculine-identifying nonbinary and you are 5'10" and under, this is your sign that you are appreciated!

Lots of Astros have been saying it was likely he would d!e in office and Harris would become president, but I never imagined it might potentially happen so soon. Really hope they take the ceremony to Zoom or something so there isn't a huge gathering of people.
"Read the room" is an ableist phrase. Autistic people in particular frequently misinterpret social climate, so missteps are common and rarely malicious or intentional.
I understand what OP is getting at, but we really need a more inclusive way to talk about that skill.
The overwhelming desire to get laid so I can release this sexual frustration that masturbation won't remedy vs. being physically repulsed at the idea of having sex with someone I don't know like that.
Let's break this down:
I understand what OP is trying to get at, but it was phrased terribly. Choosing to be monogamous because it makes you happy and comfortable is 100% valid, there is nothing wrong with monogamy itself nor is it inherently capitalist.
What IS capitalist 🧵
For this Aries season, do yourself a favor and find some good thrash metal or similar genre.
Play that shit at the highest volume you can stand and just shriek it out in your car or sth.
On God the emotional relief that this can bring is indescribable.
Shatabhisha specifically is the main "circus" nakshatra. With the influence of both Saturn and Rahu, these grahas are associated with outcasts, weirdos, and rebels, and in ye old days, the circus was often one of tbe only ways that disabled ppl or those with highly unusual +
I have a hypothesis that circuses fall under the domain of Saturn/Aquarius. I have no hard evidence to back this up & I'm on my way to work, but the case could be made.
@AstroByMax
Definitely unpopular astro opinion: I don't believe Scorpio is actually as hated as they think they are, but I guess that happens when you're inclined to be suspicious of everyone around you 🤷♂️
People hate Sun sign astrology because it's been diluted by popular Western culture and made into a joke, a caricature of itself. Divorced from the original context, it looks like stereotyping.
We associate being "confrontational" with anger, aggression, or provocation, but in practice it's really just a word for being willing to speak openly and directly.
Having debilitated Mars means it took me 35 years to learn that, and it's tough for strong Mars ppl to grasp.

Mercury technically being the closest planet to every other planet is like
Someone: *ends up casually spilling their guts in conversation*
Sidereal Gemini/Virgo:
Also still disrespecting the 4H like that doesn't describe generational traumas
The "Natural Houses" (heavy emphasis on the quotations) & Sun Sign astrology really got people fucked up.
@leigh_fall

But of course these "pro-life" old white men wanna do everything in their power to make people with uteruses barefoot and pregnant again.
So, I do not know the consensus among modern astrologers, and I'm not completely sold on outer planets having exaltation, but if I had to assign exaltation to Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto, here is how I'd do it 🧵
but Aqua doesn't think that way.
