ADHD really does put everything at equal levels of importance, huh? Like I'll have an email I need to write that'll take maybe 10 minutes, and getting that done will alleviate 6 months of stress. Then I'll notice a sock on the floor I need to put away. Then I'll get the strong conviction that it's up to me to cure cancer. And my brain will tell me that I need to do all of them at once, start and finish them all in the time span of 0 seconds, and my executive dysfunction will throw up its hands and do none of the above.

I'm discussing neurodiversity with a friend and she actually suspects she has adhd. I might have all the experience of adhd but who am I to judge right? But the thing is.. she has such strong qualities in area's that are challenging for people with adhd. And I feel like her definition of disorder because she is so balanced and organized in everything she does is on a whole different level. Like she is used to following through in her calculated choices and sticks to her habits more then almost any person I've known and it really sticks out to her when she doesn't. And her definition of I might have adhd is "I've always been dreamy and get distracted by my own thoughts when I'm supposed to be paying attention when someone is talking" Which IS a hallmark of adhd. But I can't feel help but feel.. misunderstood? Because I feel like she underestimates what it means to actually live with adhd. And it's such a fundamental aspects of my life that I know she'd be damn good in masking and overcompensating most adhd symptoms if she had it. I feel a little stupid for letting me bother it, but it still does? Maybe more because she is a close friend of mine.

Beauty AND brains. Your knowledge is your weapon.

Let's not only be insanely beautiful but also disgustingly educated. Other than discipline and hard work, your knowledge is your weapon in this world of chaos, something that you can sharpen and use.

Where can you expand your knowledge? What areas, what topics

How can you expand your knowledge? In different circumstances and preferences such as if you're too busy or if you have a short attention span

Where can you expand your knowledge?

I DO NOT mean that you need to be an expert at everything. You don't need multiple degrees for each type of intelligence. However, if you want to sharpen your weapon, sharpen your knowledge.

These are the areas where you CAN sharpen your knowledge AND the areas where you SHOULD know the basics in:

Emotional, Communication, Morals, Ethics. Be human, and make others feel human too. Cultivate empathy, understand mental health, build your conscience, and differentiate right from wrong. Communicate frequently and effectively.

History, Culture, Politics. The world is chaotic — learn to stand your ground. Understand history, politics, corruption, culture, and the overlooked heroes. Know what shaped the past to navigate the future.

Digital Literacy. The internet is a double-edged sword. Learn to navigate it safely, protect your privacy, spot misinformation, and adapt to evolving technology.

Manners, Etiquette, Body Language. The way you present yourself matters. Respect others, read unspoken cues, and master the art of presence.

Self-Sufficiency, Life Skills, Livelihood. You won’t always have someone to rely on. Cook, clean, manage time, handle money, and adapt to life’s challenges. Be independent.

Literature, Language, Writing. Words are power. Read, write, and communicate with depth. Language shapes history, culture, and thought—use it wisely.

Critical Thinking, Problem-Solving. The world isn’t black and white. Question everything, analyze critically, recognize manipulation, and think for yourself. Don't be swayed easily by others.

Science and Math. The foundation of everything. At least know the basics, enough to understand the forces shaping the world — logic, numbers, and the universe itself.

Self-Care, Hygiene, Fitness, Health. Your body and mind are your greatest assets. Eat well, stay active, manage stress, and prioritize your well-being before it’s too late.

How can you expand your knowledge?

When you have free time When you're busy When you prefer learning visually When you have little to no attention span

You are what you consume. Now that you know what topics you can expand your knowledge on, these are what you can use / do to consume those information:

Have some free time? Do / use these

Read books, take online courses, or watch in-depth documentaries. (Example: history books, finance courses, science explainers) Engage in discussions or debates to refine your thinking. (Example: politics, ethics, critical thinking) Try hands-on learning like experiments, DIY projects, or journaling. (Example: cooking, coding, writing) Attend workshops, seminars, or community events.

Too busy? Do / use these

Listen to podcasts or audiobooks while traveling, doing tasks / work / school work, or doing chores. (Example: podcasts on Spotify / Tiktok, Youtube videos where the creator is more on speaking, audiobooks on Audible or by downloading a free e-pub format e-book online then uploading it into Google Playbooks and using the audiobook / text-to-speech format) Follow bite-sized content on social media. (Example: short educational / history Tiktok videos, digital literacy infographics, photos on Pinterest) Take advantage of apps and tools for productivity, learning, etc. (Example: budgeting apps, language-learning apps) Watch short, informative videos during breaks. (Example: TED-Ed, Ted Talks, short Tiktok videos)

Like to learn visually / by watching? Do / use these

Watch video explainers, documentaries, or animated infographics. Use apps that gamify learning. (Example: Duolingo for language, Codecademy for coding) Follow visually engaging content creators. (Example: finance charts, body language breakdowns) Make mind maps or illustrated notes to break down complex topics. (Example: self-care routines, political structures, problem-solving techniques)

Little to no attention span? Do / use these

Learn through short-form content like TikToks, reels, or infographics. Play interactive or gamified learning apps. (Example: strategy games, trivia quizzes) Follow meme-based or storytelling-style education accounts. Try hands-on, fast-paced activities. (Example: debate flash rounds, real-world problem-solving challenges, DIY experiments)

Begin small, learn the basics, take a step at a time, and start from there. Be BOTH beauty and brains. You have a weapon (your knowledge), sharpen it and use it.

I know I keep saying this but I keep seeing it: stop being ableist in your anti-AI posts. half of the people I see reblogging these are disabled themselves and it makes me so angry! "I don't even know where chatGPT lives, I can make my own grocery list" great for you! I have no idea where it lives either because I've never used it! but also making your own grocery list involves multiple complex skills a lot of people do in fact have trouble with. writing a 900 word essay involves a lot of complex skills a lot of people have trouble with. writing professional emails involves a lot of complex skills a lot of people struggle with. yes, I assume most of the people using chatGPT to write their high school essays aren't cognitively disabled and most people making these posts are thinking about A Hypothetical Neurotypical Person Being Lazy etc etc but that doesn't matter, the fact of the matter is that thinking yourself superior for being able to write a grocery list is in fact ableist.

you have all GOT to be able to talk about this and be able to make your points without acting like you're better because you don't find these tasks hard. "I can write an essay without asking the lying machine 🙄 you guys are weak and can't do anything" good for you. I can dislike the lying machine and think that practicing skills that are difficult is an essential life skill without putting down people who struggle with academics etc when I talk about it 🙄 you guys are all being really ableist. skill issue.

the disability community here has SUCH a problem prioritizing certain types of disabled people, especially disabled people who are higher functioning linguistically etc, and it's incredibly frustrating when people who I know are usually good about this or who try to be good about this throw it all out the window when it comes to LLMs. stop it. stop.

PAC reading - it won't be easy, but it'll be so worth it

hi lovelies <3 happy saturn day & summer/winter solstice! this felt like the right kind of reading for today's energy; a celebration of the midpoint of the season on a day ruled by saturn, like a metaphor for being half way through an arduous journey. what is requiring far more effort than you'd like that will surely be rewarded? and how can you keep faith through it? let's find out!

take a deep breath and ask yourself what group holds guidance for you. it's more than alright to be drawn to more than one as this is a general reading. if you'd like a more personalized one, take advantage of the $3 flash sale i have going on (⁠◠⁠ᴥ⁠◕⁠ʋ⁠)

group one

three of pentacles + king of wands + the moon + the magician

you're pursuing a creative project that doesn't seem to be progressing as quickly as you'd like, and it's revealing the insecurities you have about your capabilities. firstly, it's okay to doubt yourself, dwelling in it is what's harmful. you're being encouraged to work with other people, and don't cower from leading and being more direct; you genuinely are knowledgeable and skilled enough to do so. it makes sense to look to the lack of physical results as proof of your lack of experience, but there is so much value in things taking time. as trite as it sounds, great work isn't achieved without hard work, especially when it's done to last.

step into a more authoritative role; you are capable and your work is not in vain, so stop basing your progress on what you see or hear on social media. for someone here, stop comparing your efforts to trust fund kids. it's not that you're not manifesting hard enough or believing hard enough, those people literally have everything they need already and you don't.

group two

ten of cups + knight of pentacles + the emperor + eight of cups

you have been tasked with being the one to overcome the generational trauma that's a result of an overbearingly patriarchal lineage, and it feels like it's in vain because everyone and everything is challenging your efforts. what you're doing is bigger than you; you're unlearning beliefs that have kept the women in your family oppressed. this is not just for your own good, but for the relatives that will come after you. someone, and that's you, has to carve out the path for it to feel like a possibility.

it feels like thankless work, especially when you get shut down or punished for it, but it's so necessary. you are being supported by past loved ones who have the insight to see how these oppressive familial beliefs continue to impact how you and others carry yourself in the world. you are truly a trailblazer and it's not about being validated in this, because frankly you won't be, it's about learning that you deserve respect simply for existing too.

group three

judgment + seven of swords + justice + queen of pentacles

you are choosing to stand up for what is right and just, and it baffles you how much pushback you're getting for it. you are choosing to stick to moral integrity against rising fascism and bigotry, and it can feel threatening to your life at times. you are not in it for social reward, so it doesn't need to be said that you shouldn't expect it, but what you're doing is not in vain. you are standing up for the disenfranchised when it truly matters, and that's incredibly commendable.

now is not the time to back down, but do practice more self-care. not in the commercialized way, but as the radical act of defiance like audre lorde referred to it as. you cannot help anyone when you're burnt out and overwhelmed from how difficult things are, so please prioritize taking care of your basic needs – food, sleep, etc – to be able to sustain your efforts. safely find community with your local organizers to ensure you can speak to people who can reassure you that this fight is tedious but necessary.

Your Mother And Your Moon Sign

Your mother can be seen in your chart in a number of ways, the 4th house, the Moon, Venus and many other ways shaping you. Today i will be specifically talking about our Moon sign.

Aries Moon

Aries Moons often have a fiery and dynamic relationship with their mothers. Their maternal figure was typically enterprising and encouraged them to cultivate self-confidence and independence. Many Aries Moons learned to fend for themselves at a young age, as their mother instilled in them the belief that self-sufficiency was key to living boldly. For many, this resulted in a strong bond with their mother, almost like a partnership, where she acted as a motivator and teammate, fostering resilience and self-assurance. However, for those with a more strained relationship, their mother may have been overly pushy or aggressive, sometimes to the point of being overbearing or even abusive. In such cases, rather than instilling confidence, their mother’s approach may have damaged their ego, leading them to adopt an attitude of, “I can do everything without her.”

ex. Selena Gomez, Rihanna, Tom Hiddleston, Chris Rock

Taurus Moon

Taurus Moons typically have a stable and nurturing relationship with their mother. She prioritized their comfort, ensuring they were well-fed and had a pleasurable childhood. Many Taurus Moons were pampered, often by a mother who embodied the ultimate stay-at-home caregiver—one who took pride in creating a warm, secure environment. She likely made the best home-cooked meals and provided a sense of maturity and reliability in their upbringing. However, for those who experienced a more difficult relationship, their mother may have been stubborn, lazy, or overly self-indulgent. In these cases, she might have struggled with motivation, making even basic tasks seem burdensome. Some Taurus Moons may have felt neglected, as their mother prioritized her own wants and comforts over their needs, potentially displaying greed or a lack of generosity, particularly when it came to financial support.

ex. Christina Aguilera, Demi Lovato, Robert Downey Jr., Elton John

Gemini Moon

Gemini Moons have a dynamic and intellectually stimulating relationship with their mother. She was often highly intelligent, possibly working in a field that required strong communication and analytical skills. Curiosity was nurtured in their upbringing, with their mother readily providing knowledge and engaging in lively discussions. Their childhood was likely filled with questions, conversations, and a sense of excitement about learning. She was adaptable, multitasking with ease, and may have had many hobbies and interests, exposing the Moon child to a variety of experiences. However, for those with a strained relationship, their mother may have been inconsistent, moody, or emotionally detached. There could have been a sense of never truly knowing her, as she might have been unpredictable or distant. In some cases, she may have been perceived as erratic, neglecting her child’s emotional needs in favor of her own pursuits. Additionally, her intelligence could have taken a sharp edge, manifesting in quick-tempered scoldings, sarcasm, or verbal outbursts that left the Moon child feeling unheard or dismissed.

ex. Khloe Kardashian, Jennifer Lawerence, Barack Obama, Chris Evans

Cancer Moon

Cancer Moons share a profound bond with their mother, whether they cherish it or struggle with it. When the relationship is positive, their mother is the epitome of care and nurturing—embodying the ultimate maternal figure, as Cancer is ruled by the Moon. Much like Taurus Moons, she likely expressed love through home-cooked meals, emotional support, and an unwavering dedication to ensuring her child felt safe and cherished. The Moon child often views their mother as their anchor, someone they deeply rely on for comfort and security. However, if the relationship is strained, the mother may have been highly emotional, moody, or even prone to self-pity, sometimes requiring the Cancer Moon child to take on the role of the caretaker. In these cases, she may have been overly attached, treating her child as if they could never truly grow up. This deep smothering could make it difficult for the Cancer Moon to establish independence, as their mother might have been overprotective, manipulative, or resistant to letting them develop autonomy. Despite any conflicts, the emotional entanglement with her remains strong, for better or worse.

ex. Taylor Swift, Dua Lipa, Michael B. Jordan, Kurt Cobain , (me lol)

Leo Moon

Leo Moons have a fiery and passionate relationship with their mother, who is often perceived as the central figure or “boss” within the family dynamic. She is deeply affectionate, ensuring her children feel loved, valued, and protected. A natural nurturer with a strong presence, she instinctively knows what her children need and takes pride in providing for them. The Leo Moon child likely felt seen and heard by her, often turning to her for guidance and support. She may have had a vibrant, youthful energy, making her fun to be around regardless of age. However, when the relationship is strained, the mother can come across as domineering or even narcissistic, using her authority in a way that feels controlling rather than supportive. She may dictate what her children can and cannot do, enforcing rigid expectations that stifle their independence. At her worst, she exudes an almost theatrical level of entitlement, quick to throw tantrums, demand attention, or become fixated on maintaining her own image. This can create a dynamic where the child feels overshadowed or pressured to live up to her grand expectations.

Virgo Moon

Virgo Moons often have a mother who is highly intelligent, perceptive, and wise. She was not easily deceived and had a keen eye for detail, always aware of what was going on. Despite her sharp mind, she was thoughtful and nurturing, offering practical solutions to challenges and guiding her children with well-reasoned advice. When they made mistakes, she used them as learning opportunities, and when they failed, she provided constructive feedback. She took great pride in her children, often boasting about their accomplishments in a way that reflected her high standards and deep care. However, on the more challenging side, the Virgo Moon’s mother could be overly critical, harsh, or even emotionally distant. In extreme cases, she might have resembled the archetype of the “evil stepmother,” constantly doubting her child’s abilities and making them feel inadequate. Her perfectionist tendencies could manifest as relentless nitpicking, leading the Moon child to struggle with self-doubt and a lingering sense of never being “good enough” in her eyes. This projection may have left them feeling like they were merely an extension of her expectations rather than an individual in their own right.

Libra Moon

Libra Moons with a positive relationship with their mother often experience her as a charming, sociable, and aesthetically refined presence. She was well-liked by many, had a strong sense of style, and carried herself with grace. In many ways, she felt more like a best friend than a strict parental figure, creating a warm and harmonious environment. She prioritized social connections, ensuring her child had plenty of friends and enjoyable experiences growing up. Often seen as the “cool mom” by peers, she was easygoing and eager to please—sometimes to the point of being a bit of a pushover. However, when the relationship is strained, the Libra Moon’s mother may come across as distant, unreliable, or emotionally unavailable. She might have treated her child more like an accessory, focusing on outward appearances rather than emotional depth. Her need for social harmony could have led her to avoid deeper conversations, leaving the Moon child feeling unheard or emotionally disconnected. At her worst, she could be sharp-tongued and cutting, masking her true emotions behind passive-aggressive remarks or periods of cold detachment.

Scorpio Moon

The relationship a Scorpio Moon has with their mother is deeply transformative and intensely emotional. When it is positive, it is profoundly powerful, fostering an unbreakable bond. Scorpio Moons are deeply invested in their mother, often feeling an almost overwhelming love for her—one that is all-consuming yet comforting. She is fiercely protective, the kind of mother who would go to great lengths, even risking everything, for her child’s well-being. The connection between them is almost psychic; they can intuit each other’s thoughts and emotions with uncanny accuracy. She is a strong, resilient woman who has endured many challenges, and her strength becomes a source of inspiration for the Moon child. However, when the relationship is toxic, it can leave deep emotional scars. A Scorpio Moon’s mother, when unhealed or unaware, can be manipulative, controlling, or even emotionally abusive, sometimes without realizing the extent of the harm she causes. This can lead to a complicated dynamic where love and pain intertwine, making it difficult for the Moon child to fully understand or process their feelings toward her. Betrayal—real or perceived—often plays a significant role in this dynamic, leaving Scorpio Moons struggling with resentment, unable to fully forgive, even if their mother remains unaware of the impact she has had on them.

Sagittarius Moon

Sagittarius Moons often view their mother with admiration, seeing her as a source of wisdom and adventure. She may have had multiple careers, traveled frequently, or introduced her child to diverse experiences. The Moon child likely felt fortunate to have her, appreciating her vibrant spirit and boundless energy. She was always on the move, embracing exploration and lifelong learning, often sharing her experiences through captivating stories. Open-minded and free-spirited, she encouraged curiosity and growth within the family, making life feel like an adventure. However, not all Sagittarius Moons have a harmonious relationship with their mother. In strained dynamics, she may have been emotionally or physically absent, always preoccupied with her own pursuits and prioritizing personal freedom over nurturing. The Moon child might have felt overlooked, yearning for a deeper connection and a sense of emotional security. In some cases, she may have been unpredictable, with a quick temper and erratic tendencies. She could also place heavy expectations on her child, assuming they would handle responsibilities on their own without much guidance or support. This inconsistency often leaves Sagittarius Moons feeling disconnected, as if they are always chasing a relationship that was never fully there.

Capricorn Moon

A Capricorn Moon’s mother instilled a deep sense of independence and security in her child. She was often strict, but her discipline came from a place of care and responsibility. Rather than openly expressing emotions, she showed her love through structure, guidance, and provision. Her children followed the rules she set because they understood they were meant to help them succeed. Many Capricorn Moons admire and respect their mother, appreciating the support she provided and the strong, capable figure she represented. She was often financially responsible and well-respected in her own right, serving as a model of discipline and perseverance. However, when the connection is broken, the Capricorn Moon’s mother can be the epitome of coldness. Her strictness may have felt suffocating, and rather than nurturing her child emotionally, she prioritized teaching self-respect and resilience—sometimes to an extreme. Emotional communication was not her strong suit, and she may have viewed vulnerability as a weakness. She was the type of mother who would tell a crying child to toughen up rather than offer comfort. This emotional distance forced the Moon child to grow up quickly, often becoming stronger and more self-sufficient than their mother ever was.

Aquarius Moon

With a strong connection, a mother with an Aquarius Moon is fascinating and delightfully unconventional. She is highly intelligent and knows how to pass that wisdom on to her children. She encourages independence and instills a drive for success. Her parenting style is innovative—offering creative solutions to problems and ensuring her children have an exciting, enriching upbringing rather than a dull or monotonous one. She tends to see her children as more exceptional than they truly are, but this idealization often comes from a place of love and admiration. On the other hand, the more challenging side of this mother is her emotional distance. You may have felt an emptiness in your connection with her, as if you were never truly enough in her eyes. At times, it might have seemed like she viewed you as someone else’s child rather than her own, leading to moments where you questioned whether you were adopted. Nurturing doesn’t come naturally to her, so you likely had to learn how to care for yourself emotionally from a young age.

Pisces Moon

A person with a Pisces Moon mother often shares a dreamy and deeply emotional connection with her child. Both are highly sensitive to their bond, and she tends to have a special, almost ethereal fondness for them. She nurtures creativity and emotional expression, encouraging her child to embrace their imagination and feelings. To her, you were her wonderful boy or girl—someone she cherished in a way that transcended typical mother-child relationships. This mother often had a warm, endearing presence, the kind who was adored by your friends and seen as the sweetheart of the group. Your love for her runs deep, and despite any challenges, there’s an unspoken, almost spiritual understanding between you. However, on the more difficult side, a Pisces Moons mother can be overwhelmingly sensitive, fragile, or emotionally unstable. She may have struggled with boundaries, resorted to manipulative behaviors, or even battled addiction. At times, she seemed distant—not necessarily in a cold way, but in a detached, elusive manner, as if she preferred to escape reality rather than engage with you fully. You may have felt like you simply existed in her world rather than being truly known by her. Despite the depth of feeling between you, there was always a sense that she never quite saw or understood you as an individual.
