idk who in their early 20s needs to hear this, but something clicks for a lot of people around age 24-26 where you suddenly feel like a different person in an overwhelmingly positive way and you experience a sense of control you've never had
y'all ever think about how there are people who have objectively wronged you who are absolutely out there telling others that you're the terrible person
a tweet making fun of these women has 100k likes but i swear to god if bella hadid wore this exact outfit it would be on a million "80s casual inspo ❤️" pinterest boards bc, as always, fashion is judged exclusively by the bodies that wear it
a lot of ND people are "picky eaters" because of things like this which have nothing to do with our tastes and everything to do with the sensory experience of food. i actually love strong flavors! i love spice! i'm just very particular about texture with my foods
signs that are funny:

signs that are funny accidentally:
pisces
taurus
no other signs are funny. thanks for coming to my ted talk
i would wager that at least 80% of the time when someone says "i don't care about my birthday" they mean "i have trauma i associate with my birthday and therefore the celebration is always tainted and i keep my expectations nonexistent to avoid reliving that pain"
i'm in the midst of something that to me feels new and profound and amazing and impossible but i've been talking to people lately and this is a thing that happens to like every 25 year old???? it's so cool y'all. highly recommend being 25
fuck your zodiac sign, which bojack horseman character reflects your trauma and coping mechanisms back to you in a way that is both uncomfortable and deeply moving
yes you shouldn't judge someone or write them off because of their zodiac sign, but let's be honest. we all have those placements we just keep clashing with and having bad experiences with
every single aries sun i know, without exception, has this "aaaaaaa" noise they make frequently and it is one of the most delightful things i have ever experienced
people: that astrology stuff is ridiculous! floating space rocks don't have any impact on our life on earth
the moon: did what no mere mortal could do and unstuck a boat from the suez canal
i essentially know for a fact of at least two people in my recent past who are engaging in this
i'm certainly flawed and i've definitely made mistakes, but i absolutely don't trust either of these people to recognize their own anymore
my girlfriend is currently laughing so hard she's in pain and i physically cannot stop making jokes. this is my cross to bear as an honorary sagittarius
PSA: mercury retrograde may bring up things from the past and may put you in a nostalgic headspace, but it won't necessarily have anything to do with exes for most people. sagittarius, pisces, and leo risings are the primary exceptions during this retrograde
idk what pisces needs to hear this, but even if you don't have a definitive answer for something you still need to communicate with other people about where you're at and explain the uncertainty
realizing how much the narrative of "you'll meet the right person when you're healed enough"/"you won't really be loved until you love yourself" has fucked me up. because i've watched people who haven't done any of the work get engaged, get married, have relationships
tensions are high right now with mercury square mars and mars overcoming mercury. this will be an especially difficult time for relationships for libra, capricorn, sagittarius, and pisces risings. gemini and virgo risings may be struggling with friends. aries and cap with family
i have never before now seen a thin person acknowledge that body positivity is not for them. body positivity was taken from fat people and then weaponized against us--"you shouldn't talk that way about thin people, you're putting people down and not being positive"
we need different kinds of astrologers
we need the counselors, the ones who sit with people in their darkest places and offer them torches, who can listen and truly hear what people are saying and know just what they need
a planet leaving its retrograde phase is not like bolting out of bed at your alarm and diving into your morning routine. a planet leaving retrograde is like waking up in those first few days after being sick or after a long, no alarm set, slowly readjusting to daylight
i'm convinced that anyone who insists that healing is a destination or you have to ""heal"" to move forward has actually never successfully learned to manage a trauma or personal wound. and i'm serious
okay re: normalizing men in astrology. we're running into a very common problem that exists in most fields, which is that regardless of the field, men tend to enjoy the most success, receive the most accolades, and have an easier time earning legitimacy for their work
it seems like there are a lot of breakups within the last month or so and i'm trying to figure out what about the current astrology makes it breakup weather
boundaries are about how you'll behave and what you'll accept. they aren't about controlling other people's behavior or dictating what another person will do
everyone is allowed to be the age they were in march of 2020 until things are looking less abysmal. and if that never happens then aging is over forever

what do you think is the difference between platonic and romantic love? how do you tell when you are experiencing/could experience one or the other?
i was trying to explain this last night, but it's hard! it seems to resist naming, at least in language
learn the phrase "you're right, i was wrong." better yet, add a thank you
everyone is wrong sometimes. it's a part of being a person. the sooner you're able to stop taking it personally, the happier you'll be
if anyone wants some positive news, i just found out i've been accepted to my top choice graduate program. it's a clinical psychology program with a concentration in spirituality. it feels weird to be excited right now, but i'm honestly so happy about this
random astro thoughts: the moon traditionally rules the appearance, and i've heard/seen it's common for a child to have the same moon sign as a parent's sun. what's getting passed down, besides personality, is literally appearance
march 28th is looking like a refreshing day astrology-wise. venus will meet saturn in aquarius, and the moon will join them on the day they meet. all of this is happening square the nodes, and the south bending. this also marks the end of venus's besiegement
you're not a mom friend you've got a savior streak and think you k ow better than the people around you so you're constantly offering unsolicited advice and infantilizing your loved ones to boost your ego and bolster your self sacrificing narrative
my gf has told me that your sun sign and your siblings signs can indicate what your parents' relationship needed, so it's interesting my two abuse survivor taurus sun parents had two water sign children
the moon doesn't relate to emotions because she's feminine or because cancer is emotional or anything like that. the moon relates to emotions because she is connected to the body and our sensual/sensory experience of the world. emotions are sensed. emotions are embodied
really grateful for the aries and gemini types around me who remind me that it's okay to share a lot and okay to talk about myself, that i don't need an invitation
mercury in scorpio reminds us that not all information needs to be shared in all contexts, that sometimes less is more. mercury in scorpio doesn't know the meaning of "awkward" silence. mercury in scorpio is thoughtful, intentioned communication
the best and worst quality in jupiterian venuses (sagittarius and pisces) is our way of idealizing people and seeing so much potential and possibility in every spark
dignified venus is sweet
martial venus is spicy
saturnine venus is bitter
jupiterian venus is tangy
mercurial venus is salty
lunar venus is mild
solar venus is savory
