Shadow Twins

The same object can cast two shadows. 

Sister signs share the root of their fatal flaws. 

Aries/Libra 

Loneliness- Selfishness v. Co-dependence

Because no one cares for you, you must care for yourself above all else.

Because you can’t care for yourself, you need someone to remind you that you’re alive.

Taurus/Scorpio

Depression- Apathy v. Despair 

The depth of your sorrow renders you cold, complacent, and numb.

The depth of your sorrow makes you burn with agonizing despair. 

Gemini/Sagittarius

Boredom- Chasing v. Fleeing

You run after anything that brings color to this dull, grey world.

You run away from the burdens that drain the joy and color from life.

Cancer/Capricorn

Insecurity- Self-Defeat v. Contempt

You’re afraid to try. You make excuses and keep yourself down.

You’re afraid you’re not good enough. You bring others down to compensate.

Leo/Aquarius

Arrogance- Narcissism v. Hubris

You’re in love with yourself. Everyone should love you, too. 

You’re in love with your own vision. Everyone should follow your example. 

Virgo/Pisces

Fear- Anxiety v. Disassociation

You fidget, obsess, and worry, worry, worry about what tomorrow brings.

You escape, detach, and tell yourself that nothing matters anyway.

neptune in the houses and personal danger

neptune in the houses can lead to unhealthy idealisation in that particular area of life, which can create difficult personal problems. 

1st house: neptune here creates compassion towards others that is indiscriminate. you can trust without much thought and in a way that sometimes leads to unrealistic expectations and ultimate disappointment. don’t lose your kindness, but learn to exercise greater caution in spreading it

2nd house: you don’t think of yourself as money oriented and pride yourself on that fact, but this sometimes results in financial carelessness. a lack of materialism shouldn’t mean a lack of care. try and avoid naive spending - if it sounds to good to be true it probably is.

3rd house: your interest in particular topics can sometimes become obsessive and while this isn’t unhealthy in itself, this immersion can lead to neglect of other aspects of your life. a balance is important. although you may not want to, try and also avoid tuning out information you find boring as it can often be pertinent!

4th house: you may have a greater sense of obligation towards your family than most and have a tendency to take on a maternal role to everyone you know. this is valid, but don’t overextend your emotional abilities to the point of exhaustion - you don’t always have to take care of others. 

5th house: there may be a tendency to hold an ideal partner up so highly that relating to real people becomes a problem. you may find yourself attempting to change the person you are in a relationship with and finding their reality hard to accept. it is important to recognise flaws as intrinsic to all of us, and separate your fantasies (which can be healthy!) from the actuality of a relationship.

6th house: having a job you find unappealing can take a personal toll, as the workplace should be a realm of peace. a job you dislike can lead to poor performance due to daydreaming, stress and hypochondria. try to find a job you’re in tune with.

7th house: the charitable inclination here can attract negative influences and lead to relationships where you’re particularly susceptible to being taken advantage of. be careful of romanticising unhealthy partnerships. take time to get to know people - your nature may make a whirlwind romance seem appealing, but it could lead to crisis in the long term.

8th house: you may have difficulty in separating sex and romance, and a tendency to become over involved with people who don’t reciprocate your feelings. setting boundaries in relationships and communicating with sexual partners is essential.

9th house: spirituality and mysticism have always been more interesting to you than practical study. your search for connection can create naivete however, and you may try and find meaning where there is none. you may also be vulnerable to cults and charlatans and it’s important to discern between truly enlightened souls and those pedalling false belief systems.

10th house: you may idolise a boss or authority figure, particularly if they are male, and this can lead to confused decision making, especially in the work place. it’s essential to separate your personal and professional life, and also recognise that your public image may not necessarily correlate with your true self, as a failure to do so can create a false impression of your reality.

11th house: you may overlook the faults of your friends to a detrimental degree and when you are confronted with them react aggressively. your admiration for you friends is admirable but it is important to recognise a person as a whole, or you risk disappointment.

12th house: you are deeply sensitive and as such too much time with others can be overwhelming. your time alone is important but don’t retreat from the world entirely. isolation and interaction must be done in equal measure an your friends can help you deal with the intensity of your emotions.

[sickplanets]

aries is passion, fire in their veins, endless energy. they want to live forever and just experience everything, passionate about life and love and anything that holds their interest. they want to be the best at everything. they’re icarus flying too close to the sun, achilles and his power and his immortality. they’re loud and wild and they want the world, to live with childish excitement. their anger, though, is unpredictable and terrifying, like a volcano or a dragon that leave nothing behind their fury.

taurus is patience, the slow tick of the clock, lazy naps and plants and the smell of the earth after rain. they want to enjoy the pleasures of life, luxury and love and food and beauty. loyal and sensual, stubborn and traditional. stable with roots deep in the earth, they often get called materialistic for their love of beautiful things. but taurus is ruled by venus, and they long for romance before anything else, to care for someone and being loved in return. 

gemini is wit and fun, the sign of peter pan. they are unpredictable, mutable air, changing every second from a face to another. they are talkative, manipulative and fun-loving. they have a way with words, and can talk their way out of any situation. they’re brilliant, really, smart in every sense of the word. they lose interest in things quickly, but they know a bit about everything. they have this youthful appearance, a personality that gets easily excited, and they’re not really fond of routine or responsibility.

cancer is the tide, the gentle glow of the moon, the waves crashing on the shore. they feel everything deeply, even though they don’t like to show it. they are very protective of those they love. they are the rain on a cold january day, the warmness of a blanket, the touch of a lover. bossy and moody, they are wonderful friends ; cancer will care when no one else does. they can be very loving and caring, but if they don’t like you, they will make sure you know it.

leo is courage and love and generosity. leo is the sun, and rules the heart ; they are emotional and warm and need attention and affection. they give back the love they receive with surprising intensity. but they are still lions : kings of the jungle, big lazy golden cats with magnificent hair and a playful spirit. leo is sunflowers, a sunny afternoon, vibrant laughter and brilliant smiles. but they are also very dramatic, and have mean claws they will not be afraid to use.

virgo is the endless pursuit of perfection. they want to finish everything they start and do everything that has to be done. like gemini, they are ruled by mercury, and have a great ability with words. though unlike the twins, virgo is better at writing than talking. they are very observant and detail-oriented, they notice if anything, anything, is slightly out of place. they are always happy to help, if a bit nervous, and make excellent detectives. they are often stereotyped as nerdy and boring, but they have a brilliant mind and a loving heart; they just struggle to share their emotions.

libra is balance and harmony, peace and equality. but if anything disturbs the balance, they can quickly lose themselves in indecisiveness and chaos. they are the sign of peace, but that does not mean they are docile ; they have aries’ rebellious spirit and a desire to break the boundaries. like taurus, they are ruled by venus, which is evident in their romantic nature and love of beauty and art. they often excel in painting or poetry. they are a wolf in a sheep’s clothing, a flower with hidden thorns, and despite their beauty and grace, their heart can easily turn to ice. 

scorpio is death and passion and spirituality. they feel a deep connection to the underworld, to darkness and secrets and mysteries. they are secretive and intense, very observant, but unlike virgo, they analyze everyone they meet. they can be overcome by jealousy, and their feelings are always deep and overwhelming. they love with everything they have. they are impossible to forget, they will brand their name into your skin, and their words into your soul. they are vengeful and know exactly where to strike, how to hurt and create a wound that will never heal. 

sagittarius is freedom and travel and sharp intellect, honesty and a carefree personality. they are simple people, and don’t need much to be happy. optimistic and adventurous, they are allergic to responsibility. they don’t really care what anyone thinks of them. they are smart and they know it. they are hilarious, with a great sense of humor and a lively personality. contrary to popular belief, they love with surprising intensity, and as long as you don’t try to hold them down, they will love you fully.

capricorn is the ice queen. with a cold exterior, always in control, they appear to be emotionless. that couldn’t be farther from the truth. they are ambitious and hard-working, yes, but they’re hardly the cold-hearted businessman everyone paints them to be. they have a wonderful sense of humor, a brilliant mind, and often make remarkable writers. they believe you should always try and work hard to make your dreams come true. they want to succeed and will stop at nothing to get what they want. their determination is admirable, as is their creativity. like virgo, they may struggle with displays of emotions, but that doesn’t mean they don’t feel them, or the stress, or the pression to succeed.

aquarius is the mad scientist in his fucked-up lab, inventing and creating night and day. they are rebellious and creative, with a modern and bright mind. their intelligence sometimes makes them feel superior to others, and they distance themselves from society even more. aquarius want to break all the rules and create a new, better world. like capricorn, they are often mistaken as being emotionless, but they are humanitarian and suffer with the world. they have opinions on pretty much anything and will fight you on them any day. they love being unique, original, shock, stand out from the crowd. 

pisces is 3 am, vodka & psychedelic music. lou reed, kurt cobain and karen carpenter’s haunting voice. they’re wonderland, a sinking ship, lazy afternoons and heavy eyelids, a mess of feelings and obsessions. they feel everything, and are often exhausted by social interaction. they run away from responsibility, from life, from routine and obligations and reality. they’d rather not be here, and their escapism can manifest in many forms, through drugs and alcohol or creative expression. they are idealistic and awkward, romantic and mutable.

why is it possible you feel more like your moon sign than your sun sign?🌒  🌓

the moon has always been there. it was through the ray of the moon that you came to earth, and the first mechanism received the world through 

the sun was there too, but it started out small, a flickering light as tiny as your baby heart. and then it grew and grew, and you probably didn’t really see the whole sun until around 19-20-21 years old the solar years are 20-40, but you bloomed this sun from your view on the moon just as your thoughts that were too formed with moon milk because mercury follows the moon in development from the age of 7-14. thus we see the lunar crescent atop of the mercury glyph ☿

scorpio doms: i want love to destroy me. i want to feel the ache. the pain. the transformation. i want my lover to physically crack open my ribcage and hold my beating bloodied heart in their hands. i am theirs and they are mine. we own each other completely. i drown everyday in my feelings for them, i give them everything i have. it’s just the two of us against the world, no one else matters. i’d kill for them if it made them happy and they’d do the same for me. i give them the key to my soul and i tell them to throw it away because i know we’ll be together forever. love is a strange yet peculiar thing, isn’t it?
