What Big Changes Are Coming For You? Pick-A-Pile Reading 💥👑

Note: Please do not steal. Work of TarotLadyTalks LLC. Thank you!

Hey yall!

I'm back with another pick a pile reading. This reading is credited to @roseology and @Tay on YouTube. Two readers I really love! Enjoy and I hope it resonates with you. This is a general reading so if it doesn't it wasn't for you at this time and that's okay baby! Just a cute little pick me up reading about the changes coming for you, especially on the hills of this Full Moon in Capricorn. Paid readings are open on my shop. Link is here: https://href.li/?https://www.miiriya.com/store/callin-in-wit-claude/

Pile 1: Queen (Do not know where this is from)

Trine--6th House—Gemini--Uranus

Pile 1 you are becoming mentally sharp! This is the change of someone who really got their stuff together and is not afraid to go their own route, hence the Uranus card here. There could be some changes to your routine, or you are just exploring what your routine can look like here with the Gemini card. I'm getting for some of you there could be some changes to your diet, workout routine, and even skincare. I feel like my Pile 1 folks are really going with the flow of their own and not falling into trends & consumerism. YOU ARE THE TREND! What works for you works, and what doesn't, doesn't. You are definitely not going to be pressing yourself anymore about what you think you should do and just give yourself the permission to be childlike and free with your life. And there's nothing better than being that bitch on your own accord. It reminds me of Megan Thee Stallion. Hot, pretty, and doing it your own way. Go Pile 1!!!

Pile 2: (Halle Bailey as Ariel) Sun-12th House-

3rd House--Pluto

Pile 2, silence is about to be your power and biggest asset. I feel some strength coming in for this pile, but in a very subdued way. In a very quiet where people think you're not there type of way. I won't lie Pile 2 I do see some resistance, possibly coming from your closer circle (hence the 3rd house) but I'm getting that's a good sign. The Sun & Pluto are both extremely powerful planets. Many can't hang and it's lonely at the top Pile 2. Yet, I feel my Pile 2 folks are coming into their own source of light (that's funny with the Sun being here). If you get a chance, listen to "The Game Belongs to Me" by UGK. That's the change for you. You may not notice it right off Pile 2. Heck, you may just think you're just trying to better yourself, but boy are you in for a ride. A good one though (minus some fallouts, but hey, that happens when you upgrade). I'm excited for you Pile 2. Keep me updated. I'm getting for some of my Pile 2 you might start wearing makeup or you're into the fashion industry? If so, the things you put out that you've been working on in private is going to launch you into success! Get ready....

Pile 3: Tina Turner

Chiron--Sextile--Semi--Sextile--Capricorn

First off I want to say good job Pile 3. For not allowing your pain to become who you are. My Pile 3 is starting to recognize that there is no harm in protecting yourself with the Capricorn card. Capricorns do get a bad reputation for coming off as cold and harsh, but one must remember boundaries are not for pleasing others, it's for self-preservation. A big change I see with my Pile 3 is the act of opening up and trying again, but we have more knowledge this time. We are going slower this time. I really love this energy because it takes courage to get up and try again. And depending on the situation and how you react, the pain could have ran deep. I'm glad you're healing at your own pace. I'm glad you're not allowing anyone to control how you feel. That's very courageous of you. For example, let's say you married your high school sweetheart, but unfortunately they may have passed or you both may have divorced. But after some healing and time, you find yourself remarrying someone else, and there was one point in time you probably said to yourself, "Never again." But hey, you processed that pain and you allowed yourself to do it again. That's what's up Pile 3. Even though you may not be completely 100% healed yet, Spirit says that's okay. This change is a sign of a breakthrough for you. That light at the end of a dark, long tunnel. And no, things may never be the same, but things can be better. And I think you're recognizing that :). Good job baby.

Pile 4: Donna Summer

Opposition--Neptune--Sun--Saturn

This pile is screaming Saturn in Pisces lol with these cards. So check where Saturn rx in Pisces is doing in your natal/progressed/solar return chart. Also to include your profection month as well. This pile is starting to see that their dreams can in fact become reality, but then reality sets in LOLOLOL! That's not a bad thing Pile 4, but I can see you're like "Dang, I really gotta put in the work don't I?" Lol yes you do! Opposition and Saturn do not give free handouts Pile 4, but I do see that you're not going to shy away from it. I think quickly you'll realize you're cut off for what you really want to do. Whether it be art, business, drama, music, etc. You really are starting to realize that the only person in your way is....you. But that's okay! Because we are starting today (or whenever you choose to lol). I do think this is a start of a long journey, and it's not to scare you Pile 4, but Spirit is saying if you really want to do this, buckle up. And don't feel bad if you fail from time to time, it's only a learning experience & how can you get better if you don't try again. Yes it may hurt (the Sun is our ego after all), yes it may get frustrating, but there's this saying "To much is given, much is required." And to be even more honest Pile 4, I don't think the Universe is going to let you chicken out on this one. I feel like you're meant to do what you're thinking about, you may just be a little intimidated and that's perfectly a normal, human response. But one thing about Saturn is that it is patient, especially if you're actually trying. So just start. Don't overwhelm yourself. This project will take time. This chapter of your life will take time, but honestly it's worth it. Push forward Pile 4, you can do this.

Thanks again for reading! See you all later!

Complex posted an article about Drake's new Poetry book, subsequently titled, "Titles Ruin Everything". To me it trajects the buoyed while still blued accolades of one of the greatest alternatively acceded Rap artists ever: the OVO/Warner's Aubrey 'Drake' Graham. 

Cosigns of UGK's and Trill Burgers mogul Bun B and the hood accredited while robustly respected James Prince, allow the Canadian coined 6God accreditation to street savvy the suburban undertones his Degrassi reputation awarded him. Drizzy along with Ye, Pharrell, & Cole (perhaps more) forged a freedom of righteousness into the Phariseed facade of what many now call new skool Rap culture. It’s now ok for generic Hip-Hop artists alike to mainstream-steer their careers away from street life, enough to avoid over publicized drug abuse, jail, & darkly devastating (while sullenly common lately) deaths. 

Feeling compelled to publicly comment on the relevance or lack thereof of the book, I kept things trill. Deep and sensitive artists, who happen to mainstream, are still deep and sensitive. So in light of Drake's new poetic paperback, we should probably read it in a deep and sensitive way too. Because it's Drake we’re referring to, reading it in that way, should be ok. 👌

And………..We’re back! #PovertySZNOver. Shout out to the real ones who held me down while I was on the mobile struggle. I’m still here, but a little wiser now, #IykYk ! Anyway, I have only three muses this time. I’m investing everything into EVE GLASPIE, DENALI DELANEY, & SATIVA SAYERS . I love them. They're my complex babies. Underneath the cut, you will find some important information about them. Please like this post if you want to plot. I promise I’ll message you.

Eve Lyra Glaspie

| 𝐓𝐖𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐘-𝐒𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐍 | ● Born March 5, 1997 in Drayton, NC. Pisces 🌞 ● Aquarius 🌙 • Scorpio ⬆️. She spent the first twelve years of her life in the hoods of Drayton, North Carolina. The move to the suburbs of Athena, Georgia happened when she was thirteen years old. She spent all of her adolescent years in Georgia. She transferred from GSU to LSU when she was twenty years old, the beginning of her life in Belle Vie, LA.

| 𝐒𝐈𝐍𝐆𝐄𝐑 / 𝐈𝐍𝐅𝐋𝐔𝐄𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐑 | ● Eve is a self-proclaimed old soul. Her musical influences stem from the way she was brought up. She spent a lot of time with her grandparents. They played a lot of Anita Baker, Barry White, Al Green, Aretha Franklin, and Roberta Flack. Her parents were more into Aaliyah, SWV, En Vogue, Prince, UGK, Erykah Badu, D'Angelo, Mary J. Blige, TLC, Whitney Houston, Outkast, Jill Scott, and Michael Jackson. Eve was a part of an R&B group with former friend Sylvia Vaugine and one of her best friends Princess Whittaker. The group was called Nu Soul. Sylvia was dubbed the best performer, Eve was the soulful aspect, and Princess was the glue that kept it all together. They had two hits that charted on Music Now's R&B Charts. The biggest being a cover of TLC's Baby-Baby-Baby that peaked at number five and the second being a cover of En Vogue's Don't Let Go, which peaked at number ten. Their only original song was called Through Enough and it was in the top 20 R&B charts. The group only released one EP that made a huge impact on black youth. Yet, social media was unfortunately the downfall of the young girl group as well. They disbanded after their short-lived success because of a petty feud. The girls went their own way and garnered solo success through their respective followings on social media. Eve has three million followers on Grampic, a million monthly listeners on Music Now, and 800K subscribers on VidMe. Aside from music, she's known for her unique fashion sense. She cites Aaliyah, Left Eye, and Naomi Campbell as her style icons.

SATIVA RAYANA SAYERS

𝗧𝗪𝗘𝗡𝗧𝗬-𝗦𝗜𝗫 | ● Born October 31, 1997 in Liberty City, FL. Scorpio 🌞 Scorpio 🌙 Cancer ⬆️. She's the daughter of a woman who was known as "Mary Jane" around Florida. People gave her the moniker because she was well-known for selling weed to numerous drug dealers. Alongside Sativa's father, Mary sold narcotics. Cocaine and crack was sort of "average" They were her boyfriend's thing. Mary was the one who introduced weed to their business. What made her marijuana stand out among the rest was the potent THC and impressive structure. Everybody sold weed and coke around Liberty City back in the 90s and 2000s. But only one person was dubbed the queen of marijuana. That was Asani "Mary Jane" Jones.

𝗛𝗔𝗜𝗥𝗗𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗦𝗘𝗥 / 𝗖𝗨𝗥𝗩𝗬 𝗜𝗡𝗙𝗟𝗨𝗘𝗡𝗖𝗘𝗥 | ● Standing at only 5'2 like her mother, Sativa's curves came from the same woman. Mary Jane faced struggles in a male-dominated industry. Certain men didn't take a 5'2 woman seriously. That's what her 6'2 boyfriend was for. He wasn't just a cocaine-addicted drug dealer. The guy had the muscles of a body builder. And the coldest eyes anyone had ever seen. Sativa's father was much more than a dealer. He was also an enforcer until the drugs took him all the way down in his mid 30s. He went from being addicted to coke to battling a heroin addiction in the late 2000s. Ironically, the latter formed while he was incarcerated on drug charges. By this time, her mother left the business. She was smart enough to invest in a barbershop that her younger brother ran for her. Sativa was close to her uncle and his wife. Matter of fact, her first job at the age of ten was sweeping up hair at his barbershop. She learned about unisex salons because of him. His wife worked as a braider who specialized in braids, twists, and locs. She taught Sativa how to braid and her uncle taught her how to cut. When Sativa was around fifteen years old, the aunt even let her do some of her clients' hair. The rave reviews made her want to pursue it professionally. She became sidetracked after high school because of a man. Much like what she grew up around, Sativa was attracted to drug dealers and gang members. Her most infamous boyfriend Draylon "Killa D" Johnson was a part of a gang on the south side of Liberty City. He was a few years older than her. Sativa was eighteen and he was twenty-three at the time. Draylon was in the midst of a gang war between two gangs. Bodies were piling up, blood was splattered on the streets. It got so bad that even cops avoided certain neighborhoods they knew was too dangerous for even them. The rumor was he was responsible for at least fifteen of those bodies. Sativa was blinded by her parents' love story. She wanted one just like it and got it with Draylon. He was flashy and unashamed of what he was doing. Draylon was showing off guns, money, and alluding to the killings all over Grampic. Sativa was in the background of a lot of pictures and videos, making people wonder who the girl with the "big ass" was. They started following her more than him and that's when their relationship got complicated. He became abusive and insecure. He wouldn't let her do anything. Sativa was even pregnant at twenty-one. A physical altercation led to a miscarriage. Still, she wouldn't leave him. They were very well-known on the urban side of Grampic, black youth being their primary audience. Unfortunately, Draylon wasn't allowed to redeem himself. He was killed in his late twenties by a younger member of the rival gang. He caught him "slipping" outside of a corner store. Sativa was only twenty-three years old when he died. The money he had stashed away, she used to relocate to Indiana and start anew. She went to beauty school to get her license and built her own unisex salon called "Cultivated Hair"

DENALI ROBYN DELANEY

𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗥𝗧𝗬 | ● Born June 30, 1993, on the north side of Villemore, MD. Cancer 🌞 Libra 🌙 Pisces ⬆️ The product of a north side love story. Her parents were teenagers who fell in love in the late 80s. The story begins when they were both fourteen in 1989. They were attending high school during the time when Washington, D.C. was declared "The Murder Capital" Villemore was just thirty minutes away from the Southeast region of Washington, D.C. The high murder rate stemmed from the crack epidemic plaguing the DMV area. Her own father's mother had fallen into temptation, trying crack in 1987. She became addicted to the drug. Her father always said that he was both a "motherless" and "fatherless" child because of the abandonment. Her mother came from a different kind of family. Perhaps because she came from a mixed background. Her father was Jewish and Italian. Her mother was Afro-Latina. She grew up wealthy. Her father owned local laundromats, and her mother worked in the medical field until her retirement at 45. Denali's father was Black and Irish. He didn't know his Irish side well because he was many generations after his great great great grandfather, who was Irish. By the time he was born, his bloodline was mostly Black.

𝗦𝗧𝗬𝗟𝗘 𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗦𝗨𝗟𝗧𝗔𝗡𝗧 | ● When she was growing up, Denali could remember people commending her mother on her looks and fashion sense. Her parents didn't let a teen pregnancy stop them from pursuing their dreams. Denali's father played college football. He was one of the players who received money from drug dealers who wanted them to win games for profit. Gambling on college games was big in his era. A career-shattering injury ruined his chance of going to the pros. He worked a normal 9-5 until the 10's. His alma mater offered him a coaching job. He worked as a defensive coach, eventually working his way up to head coach. That's been his job since 2019. Her mother is a homebody. She does arts and crafts, including blankets and seasonal wreaths. She sells them online. They're the complete opposites of what they were as teens in the late 80s and early 90s. Denali would say she got her style from her mother. Don't confuse the recluse for the stylish diva of the 90s. Her mother is more modest at 48. She doesn't care about keeping up with trends like the 90s babies she gave birth to. She lived in the era, attended Freaknik, wore the big exaggerated hairstyles, the booty shorts, etc. Denali modeled a lot of her image after her mother. She rose to prominence through social media. She was one of the first women to blow up on Grampic. Her college years were all over Blurbs and Grampic. After realizing she could make serious profit from the internet, Denali took it seriously. She has made claims that Grampic paid off her student loans and bought her first foreign whip. Denali started working as a stylist to the women of the WABA at the age of twenty-six. It started with one reaching out then came a viral outfit, and the rest was history. The AFL decided they needed to be more "hip" and "inclusive" Thus, the reason teams started hiring more minorities who were social media savvy. The Commanders, under new management, hired Denali to be a style consultant to a few of their young ballers who had an impact on the youth.

[nvrcmplt]

tell us about narciso, sano needs to hear about him !!!!

A part of him dislikes being what he is but he doesn't really feel any other way about being a vampire. Sometimes he gets the ideas of it being to his advantage but the cons of being what he is is more serious than just being human sometimes. Though he won't be looking to be anything else but what he is, he just feels like sometimes being a vampire is boring.

He's rather modern in thought even though he's been around since his Father's reign in the Vampiric Wars, he is the eldest of Vincenzo's Fledglings, born by that man's teeth and trained under him for centuries until Vincenzo blocked the door of their city with his own body against humans that had advanced beyond their hopes. Narciso, though angered, knew that he had to turn his back on his father's sacrifice and turn to his people. Aiding them in rationing the blood that wept from the stone door walls, to survive together even stronger.

When his Father was released from his spiked bed, Narciso was one of the seven that torn their veins open to pour their blood into the stone coffin for Vincenzo to rest within. Narciso was one of the last two vampire's standing, almost giving his entire life to save his Father, and the other person who stood with them did give themselves up for their Sire.

Narciso holds loyalty over everything to his being. He couldn't care less if his friends have lost touch with reality, harm others or eat plastic. As long as they are loyal to him, keep their promises with him and generally be friends with him without a motivation, he's a Vampire that'll stand his ground for them at any point.

Animals tend to stay away from Narciso, but he has a great fondness for rabbits. He personally would like to own some but he doesn't wish them dead in his mere presence. So, from afar, he'll stare with adoration.

His fangs are much like Vincenzo's. Primal, in that fact it's not just two canine extending. Instead, his canines, four in total, extend slightly outward to avoid cutting his gums. Canis in look, with a secondary sharpness to the small incisors that hook at its end. These are more violent when biting as they are made for tearing meat - whilst his canines are made for puncturing.

He drinks from the wrist from all his blood donors, he detests neck biting because he's had only the worst incidents with it. EG: uncleaned skin, sweat, mud smears, just overall nastiness on his tongue, ugk.

His clothing choices are stuck within Victorian and modern gothic garments, he is a cheer boy for three-piece suits with long tail coats. Though he can be a little more modern in get-up depending on if he's asked nicely. Lipsticks are often black, though his upper lip is naturally grey compared to his bottom.

Like his Father, Narciso has blood familiars, creatures made from his own veins that are loyal at default and can not cause him or any one harm unless told. They take the form of Rodents.

Narciso can turn into animals when needing too for day travel; A Swallow, A Black Swan and an ebony-silver Marble Fox. They all tend to wear his cravat unless he removes it.

His work with humans is a slow and repetitive process, having lived for years on end, he's taught Fathers and Sons for centuries, and uses their loyalty to keep his businesses going. He tends not to take on then a select few of household names and is often seen as a 'rude' boss that won't look at anyone without a prominent name, when in reality, he made those families as strong, wealthy and reputational from the get go for his own gain.

His house is four tiers, old build through and through - in the middle of a garden court. Fenced off and used for filming period dramas when he's away and often used as a tourist attraction. He houses many original pieces of art, artefacts from his travels and of course, his own hobby of portraits.

Trap Music: Decoding the Intensity of Trap Music Beats

Few genres have had such a significant effect on modern music as trap music. This guide expands on the fundamentals of trap music by defining trap characteristics, explaining the complexities of creating your own trap masterpiece, exploring the top trap hits that have dominated music charts, and highlighting the masterminds behind them - trap artists who have etched their names into the genre's history. Join us as we trace the growth of trap music, from its humble beginnings to the vast stages of the most prestigious festivals, which reverberate with throbbing beats.

Trap Music Meaning

Trap music meaning is a genre that began in the late 1990s in the Southern United States, specifically Atlanta. Trap rhythms are aggressive with powerful bass and sometimes include quick hi-hats and synths. OutKast and Underground Kingz (UGK) were among the pioneers of trap music. Trap music consists of more than simply rhythms and lyrics. A "trap" refers to famed drug-dealing locations, and trap songs frequently address themes of street life, hustling, and overcoming obstacles. Trap house music has grown to become a popular subgenre of hip-hop, influencing a diverse spectrum of artists and genres in the music business.

Types of trap music

Atlanta trap

Developed in Atlanta, Georgia, in the 1990s.

Characteristics: Heavy bass and forceful rhythms.

Gritty lyrics reflect urban existence.

Features distinct hi-hats and 808 drum rhythms.

Pioneering musicians include OutKast, T.I., and Gucci Mane.

Tropical trap

Tropical trap music, with Calypso beats and synth pop components, originated in the Caribbean and acquired global prominence.

 Characteristics include danceable beats with a sunny mood.

A mix of trap, reggae, dancehall, and tropical house.

 Tropical trap music has a global appeal that goes beyond typical hip-hop listeners.

SoundCloud trap

The subgenre originated on the SoundCloud platform in the late 2000s and early 2010.

 Characteristics include DIY ethos and experimental creation. Unusual sound and sampling.

Features unusual production techniques and a lo-fi style.

SoundCloud has become a valuable platform for indie artists to display their work.

Trap soul

Popularized in the 2010s, this subgenre combines trap and modern R&B components.

Characteristics: o Soulful vocals with trap-influenced production.

Themes explored include love, relationships, and personal challenges.

The words are introspective and emotionally resonant.

Bryson Tiller, a key artist, contributed significantly to the growth of trap soul.

Influence of trap music on pop culture

Trap music has had a lasting impression on mainstream culture, transcending its roots in the Southern United States to become a global phenomenon. Trap music has had a significant impact on many aspects of current society. The trap's powerful basslines, prominent hi-hats, and forceful beats have influenced hip-hop, pop, and electronic music. The genre's ascent in popularity on music charts, as well as collaborations between trap musicians and pop legends, have blurred genre lines, resulting in music that appeals to a worldwide audience. Trap culture has expanded to fashion, with trap music musicians frequently becoming style inspirations. Trap's image, which combines streetwear and high fashion, is becoming increasingly popular.

How to write a trap song?

The following is a step-by-step guide to compose a trap song:

Lay down your tempo: To achieve the unique trap vibe, choose a moderate to slow speed, usually between 70 and 110 BPM.

Set your beat: Create a crisp, punchy drumming centered on the kick, snare, and hi-hats. Experiment with patterns until you discover a rhythm that matches your style.

Create and then repeat your melody: Create a catchy and memorable song with synths or other instruments. Repetition is essential in trap music, so consider constructing a repeated verse to anchor your song.

Add drums: Improve your rhythm by combining 808 drum patterns. The bassline should be deep and resonant, giving a sturdy basis for the track.

Adjust your snare: Fine-tune the snare to get the desired result. Trap music frequently includes quick and complicated snare rolls, so experiment with different patterns to create intensity and dynamics.

Use distortion: Use distortion on specific parts, particularly 808 basses, to produce a gritty and abrasive sound. This imparts a raw and strong feel to the entire sound.

Conclusion

In conclusion, trap music has become a significant and influential part of contemporary music culture, with its distinct sound and themes resonating with audiences worldwide. Its impact can be felt not only within hip hop but also across a range of musical genres and cultural contexts.
