✨ My Birth Chart: A Cosmic Manifesto ✨

Alright, listen up. If you want to understand me, you have to understand that I’m not just one thing. I’m fire wrapped in mystery, softness with an edge, a storm that builds empires and then disappears into the wind.

So, here it is. My cosmic blueprint. The reason I am the way I am. Take notes. ✍️

☀️ Sun in Leo (12th House) — The Hidden Fire

Yeah, I’m a Leo, but not the kind that needs a stage. My fire burns behind the scenes—hidden, sacred, something you don’t see unless I let you. I don’t perform for the world; I shine for myself.

I am a force without needing the applause. A wildfire that picks and chooses what to burn. A ruler who doesn’t need a crown to know who they are.

🔮 You’ll never fully figure me out, and that’s the way I like it. 🔥

🌙 Moon in Cancer (10th House) — The Soft Power

I feel everything, but I don’t just feel—I build. My emotions have purpose. They drive me to create, to protect, to make something that actually matters.

People don’t realize how much power exists in being the one who holds it all together. I do. I carry people’s secrets, their fears, their hearts. I love hard and protect harder.

✨ My strength is quiet, but it’s unshakable. If you don’t see it, you were never meant to.

🌅 Rising in Virgo — The Sacred Perfectionist

I give off calm, structured energy, but inside? My mind is an entire galaxy of chaos, strategy, and refinement. I see everything—every flaw, every detail, every hidden thing no one else notices. And I fix it before anyone even realizes it was broken.

People think I’m grounded. I am. But I’m also calculating, designing, improving. I take raw potential and make it unstoppable.

✨ I don’t settle. I perfect.

🗣 Mercury in Leo (12th House) — The Voice You Can’t Ignore

When I speak, people listen. Not because I’m loud, but because my words hit different. I don’t just talk, I cast spells. I say the things you didn’t even realize you needed to hear.

I communicate in riddles and revelations. You might not understand me right away, but trust me—you’ll feel it. My words don’t just land, they linger.

✨ If you don’t get it, you will. Eventually.

💖 Venus in Virgo (1st House) — Love is in the Details

I love like I build things—with care, precision, and the intention to last. I don’t do halfway affection. If I love you, you’ll know. You’ll feel it in the way I remember the little things, in the way I show up, adjust, refine, and improveyour life without you even asking.

I don’t love for the sake of it. I love because I choose to. Because you earned it. And if you take it for granted? I’ll take it back just as carefully as I gave it.

✨ I am devotion without desperation, loyalty without foolishness.

🔥 Mars in Sagittarius (4th House) — The Restless Soul, The Rooted Heart

I crave freedom and movement, but I also need something steady beneath my feet. I want to run, explore, destroy, create—but I need a home base, a place to land when the fire burns out.

I don’t sit still, I don’t wait, I don’t hesitate. When I want something, I go after it. Period.

✨ I live in constant motion, but I always know where my roots are.

🌀 North Node in Pisces (7th House) — Learning to Trust, Learning to Let Go

I’m here to surrender—to stop trying to control every little thing and just trust the universe to meet me halfway. I’m supposed to lean into love, connection, softness.

That’s hard for me. But I’m learning.

✨ I am meant to stop fighting the current and let the waves carry me.

💫 The Final Truth

I am a contradiction and a masterpiece. A hidden fire, a guiding light, a quiet storm. I build, I heal, I know things before you say them. I’m stronger than I look and softer than you expect.

✨ I am not here to be understood. I am here to be felt. ✨

🚨 Why You Shouldn't Use Social Media: The Dark Side of Every Platform 🚨

Social media may seem like a way to stay connected, entertained, and informed, but in reality, it’s a carefully engineered trap designed to steal your time, hijack your emotions, and manipulate your behavior. Here’s a deep dive into why each platform is toxic and what it’s really doing to you.

🧠 GENERAL REASONS TO AVOID SOCIAL MEDIA

✔ Mental Health Decline – Increases anxiety, depression, and self-doubt. ✔ Addictive by Design – Built to manipulate your brain with dopamine hits. ✔ Destroys Attention Span – Makes it harder to focus and stay present in real life. ✔ Privacy Invasion – Your data is being sold to advertisers, companies, and even governments. ✔ False Reality – Creates a highlight reel of life that makes you feel like you’re not enough. ✔ Encourages Mindless Scrolling – Wastes hours of your life that you’ll never get back. ✔ Echo Chambers & Polarization – Reinforces extreme views, misinformation, and tribalism.

💀 THE WORST SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS & WHY THEY SUCK

1️⃣ Instagram – The Fake Perfection Machine 📸

🚫 Why It’s Toxic:

Algorithmic Mind Control – Shows you what will make you insecure, not what will make you happy.

Unrealistic Beauty Standards – Filters, FaceTune, and edited bodies distort reality and crush self-esteem.

Comparison Trap – You only see curated, perfect moments, making your real life seem boring.

Shallow Validation – Tied to likes, comments, and engagement, making people crave external approval.

Shadow Banning & Suppression – Your content can be silently hidden for no reason if it doesn’t align with trends or politics.

2️⃣ TikTok – The Attention Span Killer 🎵

🚫 Why It’s Toxic:

Designed for Maximum Addiction – Short, high-stimulus videos ruin your ability to focus.

Dopamine Overload – Endless scrolling trains your brain to crave constant stimulation, making normal activities feel boring.

Privacy Nightmare – The Chinese-owned app has been accused of mass data collection and spying.

Desensitizes You – Exposure to graphic, extreme, or disturbing content without warning.

Viral Toxicity – Encourages dangerous trends, misinformation, and mob mentality.

3️⃣ Facebook – The Boomer Hellscape 🏚️

🚫 Why It’s Toxic:

Fake News & Misinformation – Spreads conspiracies, lies, and propaganda like wildfire.

Political Rage Factory – Algorithm favors anger, making people fight more.

Privacy Violations – Harvests and sells your personal data, even tracking you outside the app.

Addictive Nostalgia – Makes people cling to old relationships and past versions of themselves.

Echo Chambers – Shows you only what you agree with, reinforcing extreme beliefs.

4️⃣ X (formerly Twitter) – The Hate & Doom Machine 🐦🔥

🚫 Why It’s Toxic:

Encourages Outrage & Negativity – People get the most engagement by being extreme, controversial, or hateful.

Cancel Culture Central – One wrong tweet and your entire life can be destroyed.

Bot Manipulation – Filled with fake accounts designed to sway public opinion.

Drains Mental Energy – Constant doom-scrolling keeps you anxious, angry, or hopeless.

Short-Form Thinking – Forces people to oversimplify complex issues into a few sentences, killing deep discussion.

5️⃣ Snapchat – The FOMO & Sexting App 👻

🚫 Why It’s Toxic:

Encourages Temporary, Superficial Interactions – Makes real communication less meaningful.

Breeds FOMO & Loneliness – Streaks & disappearing messages make people feel left out and addicted.

Screenshots & Privacy Risks – People can easily save and spread your private moments.

Child Exploitation Hub – Predators and sketchy interactions thrive on the platform due to lack of oversight.

6️⃣ LinkedIn – The Corporate Ego Trap 💼

🚫 Why It’s Toxic:

Fake Professionalism – People post inflated, self-congratulatory nonsense.

Toxic Hustle Culture – Encourages grindset, burnout, and unhealthy work obsession.

Unsolicited Sales Pitches & Spam – Constantly being pitched useless courses, services, and job scams.

Disguised Social Media – Just as addictive as other platforms but disguised as "work".

7️⃣ Reddit – The Internet’s Toilet Bowl 🗑️

🚫 Why It’s Toxic:

Full of Extremist Echo Chambers – Subreddits reinforce groupthink and radicalization.

Anonymous Bullying & Harassment – People say the most vile things without consequences.

Misinformation & Pseudoscience – People spread lies and conspiracy theories as if they’re facts.

Addictive but Useless – You can waste hours reading arguments that have zero impact on your real life.

8️⃣ Pinterest – The Pretty but Pointless Black Hole 🎨

🚫 Why It’s Toxic:

False Productivity – Makes you feel like you’re doing something creative, but you’re just hoarding ideas.

Unrealistic Aesthetic Expectations – Constant overly curated, perfect images make life feel ugly in comparison.

Sucks Time Without Reward – You’ll spend hours pinning things you’ll never actually do.

9️⃣ YouTube – The Mind Control Machine 📺

🚫 Why It’s Toxic:

Algorithm Dictates Reality – Pushes certain narratives while suppressing others.

Clickbait Culture – Encourages drama, lies, and exaggerated outrage.

Deep Rabbit Holes – One click leads to hours of wasted time watching nonsense.

Unfiltered Harmful Content – Misinformation, radicalization, and disturbing content can creep into recommendations.

🚀 WHAT TO DO INSTEAD OF SOCIAL MEDIA

✔ Build Real-Life Connections – Call a friend, meet in person, or write a letter. ✔ Create Something Tangible – Paint, write, start a project, or build something. ✔ Read Books & Deepen Knowledge – Instead of short, meaningless posts, go deep. ✔ Be in Nature – Walk, hike, or just sit outside without distractions. ✔ Practice Mindfulness – Meditate, journal, or simply be present. ✔ Improve Skills & Hobbies – Learn a language, cook, garden, or play music. ✔ Live for Yourself, Not an Audience – Your life doesn’t need to be performed—it needs to be lived.

🔥 FINAL VERDICT: DELETE. IT. ALL.

Social media is a drug, a trap, and a time thief. It makes you less present, more insecure, and addicted to external validation. The world was better before it. Your mind was sharper before it. Your soul was freer before it.

The question is: Do you want to live for yourself or for the algorithm? 🤯

🚫 Delete. Detox. Reclaim your life. 🚫

🌿 The First Real Planting of the Season

The first planting of the year always feels a little chaotic—but in the best way. 🌱 Today, I prepped the herb garden, layered compost, turned the soil by hand, and opened up the first seed packets of the season. Dill, basil, parsley, and thyme—they’re all tucked in now, ready to take root.

There’s something so satisfying about holding seeds in your hand, knowing they’ll become something alive. The garden was a blur of activity—Jessie sprinting laps around the yard, my tools scattered everywhere, and me just trying to keep up with it all.

I sat down after it all, flipping through my garden journal, imagining how the herb spiral will look in a few months: lush, green, and buzzing with life. It’s just the beginning, but this is where the magic starts.

Oh max. You’re the best. 🐈

The annoyance he shows me every time I’m just taking a picture for his tumblr fans is just wild.

Christmas max. He’s still a sweetie pie.

INLAW RANT

i've been married over 15 years.

for 15 years i've been told to accommodate my SIL. I've been told to forgive, be understanding. I've been told "you do anything for family" I've watched my entire in law family allow the females in this family to be fucking horrible to people.. and the men are just like "okay."

And now my MIL sister is dying ... abandoned by her own daughter, her husband having passed... and now she's four states away by herself begging to come live here... and my MIL and SIL basically hate this ball of light and fun (who can be annoying like a child who overtakes her medicine as a drug and alcohol addict). This woman who has been nothing but loving and and caring, always allowing them to stay with her in her house at any point in their lives. watching and taking care of my husband and his siblings for years when things were tough for them.

But now. they wont take care of her, look at her as a burden, and are trying to stick her in a home first before feeling obligated to find a place out here.

Now who is going to pay for all of this? Us. Because no one else has money.

But... i need to "leave it alone"

and i can't help take care of her because she's not my aunt or sister. and I just have to watch these people treat her like a pariyah that they want nothing to do with!

and i'm here saying... uhhh... wait a second. i thought we were supposed to: - forgive - understand - do anything for family - allow them to be horrible and difficult .... and pretend like nothing is wrong.

apparently, they had the mindset I was raised to belive the whole time which is "if family isn't convenient, you can cut them out".

(my SIL is currently in this phase and now that I have come to understanding and love with her, has now decided that she is going to cut US out.)

the fucking audacity. bunch of hypocrites.

My Sunday:

Woke up at noon

Took an adhd pill my thyroid medicine and my acid reflux meds. Drank half a coffee and proceeded to:

Clean the house

Feed the snakes

Switch cages around

Plant live plants in the cage

Water my plants

Plant my daffodils in the front

Bluebells in the back

And start the crocus…

Organize my desk and office area

Organize my bedside table

Organize under my bed

Watch the Steelers win.

Spend time with Sean outside

Spent time talking with the neighbors

Smoked about 3 joints

Put my youngest to bed.

That seems like a long list.

Is anyone else curing your Election Day sadness with Mario Party Jamboree, leftover Halloween candy, and Celine Dion? No? Is it just me?

Also Roll ‘Em Raceway has me cursed! Only rolling 2 and 3.

Your photography is really cool! 😀

Also happy late birthday, congrats on hitting 39🥳

Thanks. I don’t know why I took so long to finally invest my emotions into it. I always afraid of just becoming the next girl who claims she can take good pictures but can’t. So I never put effort into my photography even though I have always loved it and known I see the world through a photographic lens anyway.

The thing my late 30’s did for me (35-38) was realizing I’m only getting older. And worrying about how I’m being perceived by others my entire life has controlled me until now. I let that shit go a few years ago and feel the most free and the most like my true self than I ever have; except for my senior year of high school which I feel was the closest I got to being truly myself.

I only want to live the rest of my life as true to my soul as I can. That means sleeping a lot. Smoking a lot of weed. Working my ass off and getting my business off the ground. Creating a world for my children and my family that I can be proud of. Spending. A fuck Ton of money on stupid shit. Watching all the tv and movies. Spending time with my loved ones all the time. No exceptions. And surrounding myself with people who get me, accept me, and love me. I don’t have time or energy for anything else.

[djslaughter]

Totally twisted.

I found a million tags.
