Everyone’s favorite types of astrology posts..
Astrology observation’s 🤍
Tumblr media
By lunar liyah
Juno In Sagittarius people love to travel with their partner. Prefers someone that is out of state and sometimes even out the country. Their obsession with travel and exploring is also a huge part of their love language.
Moon/Mercury
🤝
Moon/Mars
Both experiencing major headaches. In fact, they get headaches easier than others. If they don’t eat enough or take long periods of time without eating can result in headaches. Being tired can cause headaches. Quicker than normal and typically more painful.
Aquarius placements can be some of the most delusional people. They can lack self awareness. They are be so opinionated on others and what they’re doing. They can try so hard to pick apart what others have going on. As soon as someone says “you” to them, defense mode.
Leo and Capricorns have very similar energy. Both can be very sure of themselves and what they want. Both are goal oriented. Having both Leo and Capricorn in a natal chart, specifically in the big three, makes someone very reliable and independent. (My favorite type of placements tbh lol) Both energy care about how they’re perceived, they don’t do anything without thought. Contrary to popular belief, Leo’s are very calculated people. All earth signs are calculated in different ways of course. Capricorns in particular have a way of playing chess and making sure that they do things that benefit them in the long run. As far as these energies being together in a relationship, perfect match. Leo being a fixed sign, this energy wants to make things work. They are not easy to give up on things and people. They make change happen if need be but only to keep the stability in their connection with others. At the end of the day you can summarize that as being loyal. Capricorns never leave people high and dry. They are straightforward with their ACTIONS. They are honest and if they care enough (lol) they’ll speak up. For the most part, they are showers. They show people how much they care. Which Leo’s loves. A doer, not someone who’s all talk. They’re the show off and the ones doing to talking! Not their partner. Capricorns are also very loyal as well. I personally love love love these two together. Power couple for real. Also makes the best of friends too!
Cardinal
These people are considered the scout. The leaders. What this means is when it comes to relationships, they are more upfront about what they want and what their needs are. They enjoy people to let them take the lead. They are not afraid of pursuing people they want in their life. Romantically or friendship wise. They’re more picky and they are definitely more independent. It doesn’t take them long to move on. (cancers.. yeah maybe a little different but once they’re gone, it no way possible for anyone to get the back) They shoot their shot directly and can even be flirty. They do not beat around the bush at all. They like to jump straight into things. Sometimes this does backfire. Moving too fast into things. Rushing even. Thinking too far ahead. Sometimes they can stress themselves out by thinking too much into the future or may even be seen as bossy. Or pushy even.
(Capricorn, Aries, Cancer, & Libra)
Mutable
These people are more inclined to fluctuate. They love having variety and options. They tend to not sit still, ever. Always on the go. Tend to go well with someone who helps balance them out. They are not the neatest people, yes even Virgos. These people are not that straightforward I’ve realized only when it comes to things they aren’t passionate about. In comparison for cardinal signs, it doesn’t take much for them to pursue anything. These people struggle with finishing project, ideas, etc. They can have an idea that they sit on for days (or forever). These people are very creative though. Don’t underestimate their creativity. They just need that push to execute and consistency.
(Pisces, Gemini, Virgo, & Sagittarius)
Fixed
These will be your most unconvincing, stubborn, my way or the highway type of people ever. They rarely change their minds. The way they’re used to something is how it will be for a long time. How they were raised shows up a lot in their adult life. These people enjoy routine. These people also love the thought of continuous things. These people don’t like forming deep relationships with new people. They will try to make things work. They will be very loyal people. Aquarius is known to be flaky. But they’ll be there for those who give them space and don’t conflict with their decisions and beliefs.
(Aquarius, Taurus, Leo, & Scorpio)

Astro observations pt5
☄️People with Mercury retrograde have karma and issues surrounding their voices. This often stems from past lives of them not feeling “heard” or not using their voices properly so they come back into this lifetime to speak up for themselves or articulate words in the right way. This typically manifests as the individual having some type of speech impediment like stuttering, speaking too loud, or speaking too low, maybe speaking too fast or too slow, or just there being something “wrong” with their voices. I also find that these people are often misunderstood and that people misconstrue what they say all the time!!! Similar to having mercury in Pisces/12th house if you ask me
☄️They’re not lying when they say that 8th house synastry is really intense. This person always seems to come in and out of your life. It causes lot of drama and I find that the planet person secretly hates on the house person.
☄️Saturn Retrograde can indicate the native doesn’t get along with people in authority and often are seen as disrespectful or disobedient by their parents or peers
☄️As a 12th houser, I can confirm to you that the 12th house does indeed deal with the collective unconscious. It’s constantly having to examine which thoughts are actually yours
☄️Having your sun in the 12th house makes you come off more like your ascendant. This is because the sun is in the house of the things “hidden” from you or that ur not aware of so that signs’ energy is inaccessible to you
☄️Degrees in astrology can be used to tell time. I have Uranus at 11° and got my first phone at age 11 (Uranus deals with technology). I also have mercury at 12° and I got my second phone at 12 years old. Mercury also deals with technology (the 3rd house)
☄️This can’t be said for everybody but the degree of your sun sign can point out something significant or life changing happening at that age. (For ex. Sun at 9° may have traveled to somewhere for the first time at the age of 9)
☄️Even if Venus doesn’t aspect the asc, having it in its home signs Libra, Taurus, or exalted in Pisces well aspected denotes physical beauty
☄️Women with personal placements in aries may struggle with trying to be feminine

mercury rx in aries:
be careful on the road during mercury rx! mercury in aries is good for accidents due to people not taking their time on the roads + not being fully present. take your time, leave earlier if need be, and stay alert. wishing everyone a safe retrograde!

Random Astrology Thoughts #Dos
People with natal Mercury retrograde handle Mercury retrograde transits a lot better than those with Mercury direct. It's an energy they are of course already very use to. While the rest of us are loosing our minds dealing with crappy technology, cars breaking down, issues with travel, communicating, forgetting things, making plans that get thwarted or drastically change. Mercury retrograde people are like...meh.
Tumblr media
Mars in your chart is how you get shit done. Your method to solving problems when they arise. What pisses you off, but also how you piss other people off. Mars in Aries is the action hero, they will take the lead first, jumping straight in, no thinking. "Let's handle this now!". Other's could get pissed at Aries hot headed-ness and lack of strategy, while Aries will be angry at the passivity. Speaking of passivity, Mars in Libra would prefer to skate around the problem trying to avoid it hoping it will just go away. They will be pissed at there being a problem in the first place, especially if they get confronted about it. Others will be angry at Libra's lack of urgency and avoidance to resolving the conflict. Mars in Scorpio is the "Ninja of the Night". Unlike their other Mars ruled cousin, they move in strategic and very silent ways. Scorpio Mars will be upset when others pry into their business, or discover their business and blab about it to others without their consent or ability to control the situation. Other's will presume Scorpio as sneaky and this could anger and even at times cause fear due to the mysterious movements.
Tumblr media
7th house transits have less to do with you and more about the other people you have significant relationships with in your life. This is because the 1st house is literally you, and your life while the 7th is other people. 7th house transits may or may not have a major effect on your life. Jupiter transiting your 7th can mean abundance, blessings, wealth, higher learning, or travel plans coming to someone you are close to. You may find you have more options in terms of partners, as you may come across lot more people who may find themselves interested in you. Mercury transit someone you know may be learning a new skill, become more communicative, starting a blog or writing project, networking more. You may find people are more talkative around you. Sun transit, someone maybe achieving a goal, setting a new goal, thinking more of themselves during this time. You may meet people who are very expressive, seem to have big egos or are very goal driven during this month transit.
Chiron shows you what triggers you the most. Your biggest wounds and insecurities. These are also wounds you can help yourself heal from by helping others do the same. Chiron in the 3rd can become a "Voice for the Voiceless", encouraging people to speak up and voice their opinions without shame. Chiron in the 1st can become an advocate for people being and loving themselves and expressing their truest self unapologetically. Chiron in the 4th can become a healer of the home and family life. Helping others find their roots, or repair relations to their primary care givers or even children.
Planets in your first house will take over that house, and you will completely embody them. That planet becomes what you strongly identify as. Mercury in the first you identify with your intellectual/communicative nature, your ability to think for yourself and about yourself first, your cleverness, your strong opinions. Uranus in the first you identify with your oddness, spontaneous, and rebellious and sometimes chaotic nature. Jupiter in the first you identify with your optimism, your faith, open mindedness, jolly and freedom loving nature. Pluto in the first you identify with your inner power, inner strength, sexiness, mysteriousness, your pain/traumas, your ability to comeback stronger from any adversity.

surviving mercury retrograde 🫖
since the often-dreaded transit affectionately known as mercury retrograde is coming up, i thought i’d write a little post talking about how i personally get through it. some of you may know that i’m a virgo rising with mercury retrograde in the first house. so mercury retrograde tends to hit me like a ton of bricks! over the years, i’ve worked on a little survival guide of sorts, and decided to share it in hopes of easing the transit for you a little bit.
firstly: it will pass. mercury rx only lasts about three weeks, which, yeah, feels like a lifetime when it’s not going well. but it does pass, and in the grand scheme of things, three weeks is almost nothing. when you feel like everything’s falling apart at the seams, take a moment to remind yourself that whatever is going on for you won’t last forever, and calmer seas lie just past the storm.
stay on top of your schedule. mercury rx tends to cause problems with communication, travel and timing; plans go awry, time escapes you, the bus doesn’t show up. this is all completely normal, and there are things you can go to mitigate the effects. personally, i make sure to stay more on top of my to-do list than normal, try not to pack too much into a day (because things will inevitably take longer than normal, or i’ll end up sidetracked and having to rewrite my whole week!). leave enough space in your diary to add things on if you need, and then if you have free time, enjoy it! use it to get ahead of the game, or just take a break – we all need and deserve them from time to time. another thing i do is try to prioritise what needs to be done today, and what can wait if i do get overly busy. these are all handy skills to have in general, but when everything goes a little haywire, it really helps to be able to focus on the important things and reorganise the rest without too much stress.
look at your chart. mercury rx will affect us all a little differently, and this is due to where it lands in our chart, and which of our placements it activates. i’ll use a personal example here: for me, it lands in my fourth house – the house of home and family – and will form a conjunction to my natal mercury. disaster, right? well, it doesn’t have to be. at least i’m prepared, and when i’m going through a crisis and feeling overwhelmed, i can take a breath and remind myself this is just part of the transit. i know in advance to really watch my work schedule so as not to overbook myself, stay on top of my workload, and put in 110% to keep things running efficiently while making time for my family and rest. having a sense of why this is happening, and the foresight to be able to plan ahead and feel a little more in control, brings a sense of power over your situation. personal power is so important for your wellbeing, so make the most of the power of foresight here!
add extra travel time. this might sound silly, but the amount of times i’ve been late, or had to massively rush to get somewhere on time, or to get something handed in or completed on time, during mercury rx is shocking! nowadays, as part of my personal survival guide, i make sure to add an extra five minutes to get ready and to get to my location, i check deadlines more carefully and make sure to finish before them in case there are problems, and i’m careful not to go for back-to-back engagements when possible. it’s more for peace of mind than anything, but it definitely seems to help keep life calmer during a hectic time.
communicate clearly. because retrogrades tend to send energy inwards, communication can get tricky. you might find it’s harder to make yourself understood, or you misunderstand others more. old arguments, often over silly things, can pop up like daisies. people from the past can reappear and bring up all sorts of emotions. i would recommend journaling to anyone, but especially if you’re struggling to make sense of your thoughts and feelings, journaling can be an amazing tool to help you reflect and analyse what’s going on for you. i find it really fascinating to read back through old journal entries too, and look at the themes of the transit through my own words. when it comes to communicating with other people, if you’re dealing with professional situations, i would recommend following up communications with an email or letter reiterating your points. this helps keep the record straight and prevent crossed wires later down the line. in your personal life, it can be helpful to remind yourself that the person who is driving you mad right now is someone you love and care about, and you don’t want to hurt them. you can give criticism without being harsh, though it’s more difficult during this transit. take breaks if you need to during arguments, and make sure you’re being clear with what you want. sometimes i find i go round in circles while trying to express something, and my original point gets lost. taking a breather to reassess what you’re trying to say and then coming back to the conversation can be really helpful here.
stay grounded in the present. when any planet goes retrograde, it’s easy to focus on the past. old issues seem to swing back around to meet you in the present, and you may encounter full-circle moments. so when you’re feeling overwhelmed by old arguments, old friends and lovers, and old thoughts, take a moment to ground yourself in the present. you could use mental grounding to affirm where and when you are, or utilise an anchoring object. i have a post that talks about grounding techniques in more detail here which may be helpful if this is something you would be interested in, but essentially, you are helping yourself to emotionally understand where and when you are, as opposed to logically knowing but feeling stuck in the past.
lastly: it might not be all that deep. transits definitely have an affect on our day-to-day lives, i’m not going to dispute that. but perhaps they don’t have as much power as we feel they do. is there a bit of placebo effect that comes into play when we’re running late for work during mercury rx? probably, yeah! our brains are incredibly powerful organs, and our beliefs can hugely impact our perception of, and feelings about, our current situation. if you’re feeling overwhelmed and at the mercy of a transit, it might be time to take a step away from astrology and just let yourself live in the moment. more than anything, we are at the mercy of our own perception, and that’s something that we can work on.
i hope this guide helps you feel a little more prepared, and a little less scared, of mercury retrograde. take care of yourselves readers,
kira xo

BLAMING MERCURY RETROGRADE
I have never gotten in a car accident, received a ticket, or ever gone more than ten miles over the speed limit. Tell me how, after over two decades of existence, I get in two car accidents over the course of two weeks.
I’ll tell you how, mercury fucking retrograde. Not only is it currently in full swing, but it’s also trine my Saturn. I feel no shame in blaming the stars in an occurrence such as this.
I felt triggered with immense guilt each time. It reminded me of growing up and being shamed for every minuscule “mistake” I made. I am slowly but surely reparenting myself into accepting that shit simply happens to everyone.
Just because I made a mistake does not mean I am one.

Hello, new follower. Excited to read your other observations 🫶.Also because of your name I am asking. What do you think of natal Mercury rx at 22 degree in the first house.
Mercury Rx in the 1st house at 22 degrees
If you have Mercury retrograde at 22 degrees in your first house, it indicates that you may face challenges and opportunities related to self-expression, communication, and self-perception. You might find yourself needing to think deeply before expressing yourself or communicating with others, which can lead to a more introspective communication style. This placement suggests that you possess a keen intellect and curiosity, particularly directed towards understanding yourself on a deeper level. However, you may sometimes struggle with expressing yourself clearly or experiencing miscommunications with others. Despite these challenges, you have the potential for profound self-awareness and personal growth through introspection and reflection on your identity and how you present yourself to the world.
Hope this helps! ✨

(Welcome back to my blog after 2 years xx)
I’ve missed you all. I haven’t mad a meditative post in an extended period of time. I do miss doing readings, engaging with you all, and of course, writing these posts. I am glad to be back and posting again!
Tumblr media
SOLAR ECLIPSE. SUN, MOON, MERCURY, VENUS in ARIES, MERCURY RETROGRADE
What does all this mean?
Solar & Lunar Eclipse meaning.
On March 25th, 2024 we had a Lunar eclipse during the start of Aries season. I would like to highlight what this brings or brought during that time for us as a collective. Lunar eclipses, since mainly involving the moon, brings reflections, setbacks, etc. A lot of hard conversations to be had. Being held accountable for actions. However, this Solar eclipse coming April 8th, 2024 is bringing a completely different energy. Definitely a time to release and relax. Do not take action during this day. Completely reflect. This is a time to plan so that once it’s over we can continue to direct our energy to new endeavors. Also understand that karma is coming. That could be good karma or nots so good karma. Regardless, she’s on her way. This is a shift happening in the atmosphere. We all will feel it in some (or all) area(s) in our life right now. Please understand that things that happen, happen for a reason. Try to understand the lessons of life’s experiences and work with it not against it. Recognize what you’re called to highlight during this solar eclipse.
Aries season (how does this correlate?)
Aries is the sign of destruction and extreme cases. A lot of malfunction and movement going on. Do not force this energy. Do not try to take control of anything right now. With 3 other planets being in the sign Aries, we are likely to want to start new endeavors. We must remember we are also in Mercury retrograde. No, Mercury retrograde is not a time to move in fear, but more so to move slowly and cautiously. That is two things that Aries energy is not familiar with. Neither is the solar eclipse energy as well . Right now everyone could be feeling as if they should book that flight, buy that ticket, start that class, apply/start a new job, etc. This is an appropriate time to do so but be very cautiously. Meaning meditate on the decision for about three days (or longer if possible) before moving forward. Remember that communication is not clear (Mercury retrograde) so things may seem better than what they actually are, which is why we shall be cautious and double check and make sure that we’re reading all the details of every document, letter, email, text message, etc. 
How does Aries energy, Mercury retrograde, & Solar eclipse manifest in the real world?
A lot of rushing pertaining in all aspects, on the road, being impatient and short with others, rushing through documents, skim reading, easily agitated, quick to threaten, quick to jump to conclusions, etc. New ideas being brought up at the workplace, meeting new potential business partners, coming across new ideas pertaining getting to the next level. making workout plans wanting to start a hobby, being highly competitive, etc..
Tumblr media
Make sure that if you’re interested in a reading, book that reading in the link in my bio. Read pinned post for more details. I can’t wait to get back to brainstorming with you all again. Trust, you’ve been missed. Posted during the Mercury hour, hopefully this was a good and insightful read. Thank you all and be safe!

take your dreams seriously by taking that first step
nothing happens overnight. take your time with manifesting the dream
push past your perceived limitations
invest in what you're creating from the heart
build up your self-esteem
take your gifts + flip them into opportunities to take after retrograde is over
