As someone well into astrology, I often try to look into how deep it goes based on further understanding of it all. How the stars, planets, moons and what not affect the signs and stuff like that. It's one of the few times my tendency to overthink things comes in handy because I found a lot of shit that not only resonated with my life, but the life of those around me.
For context, while I won't name names, I'm an Aries born under a Capricorn and a Virgo parent. So needless to say I had to struggle to figure out where I not only fit in with myself, but with them and others like them should the signs be that compatible one way or another.
I've mentioned Astrology.com. Regarding how I interpret my and other people's horoscopes. However I never looked deeper than my favourite astrologer Rene Watt. I first caught onto her horoscopes on Shondaland, but then went to Astrology.com, to read further things. It took me down a rabbit hole that ended here:
Each of these linked texts, gives an in depth look on everything related to the Western Zodiac. The birthdates, elements, planets, body parts, colors, even down to the mantra. Case in point me:
Aries, The Ram, Ruling Planet Mars, Mode Cardinal, Element Fire, Colours Red and Mustard, House First, Mantra "I AM" and My Card in Tarot is The Emperor.
My mother:
Virgo, The Virgin, Ruling Planet Mercury, Mode Mutable, Element Earth, Colours Tan and Warm Yellow, House Sixth, Mantra "I ANALYZE" Tarot Card The Hermit.
My father:
Capricorn, The Goat, Ruling Planet Saturn, House Tenth, Mode Cardinal, Element Earth, Colours Brown and Khaki, Mantra "I USE", Tarot Card, The Devil....ya about that. I'll get to that later.
But reading into those articles further helped me not only better understand myself and my parents more, but also allowed me to understand what we have in common in personality, life goals and other situations most people often differ on. But the thing that freaked me out the most about it, was by all intents and purpose, I was an accident. Those people couldn't be more opposite of each other and yet somehow they managed to click long enough to create me. Then I remembered that old saying "Opposites attract." Which has become a walking contradiction regarding love, because while we seem opposite of one and other regarding ourselves and respective partners. However if we stick with each other long enough, we find that we have more in common than we realize. Some intriguing, some joyful, but above all else terrifying.
Believe you me when I read this stuff, it scared the crap out of me knowing what I know about certain people in my own life.
That being said, it offered me much needed relief because while I often struggled to fit in everywhere I go, I have often found myself in one way or another unable to fit in. I either don't give too much of myself for people to be suspicious of my motives, but when I do share myself even a little, to help explain my perspective on life, I run afoul of those whom either think I said too much or double down on the shit they think I am. But at this point in my life I realized what's worth talking about and what's not worth talking about with this site being no exception and now that I gotten that figured out with the signs literally telling me what is going on, rather than vague hints or cryptic bullshit, I was able to breeze through my life better that even save for a few lapses, life has gotten a lot better for me and may continue to get better if I survive it long enough until Christmas at least.
With that said, look into this, I'm sure it may be a real eye-opener even for those merely curious about how Horoscopes work.
Take care, stay safe and stay tuned for more.
