One Easter Sunday I went to a party at Mary Pickford’s house. Everybody from silent films was there. I tried to have fun, but I discovered we had nothing to talk about. I like The Beatles, for instance, and some of them had never even heard a Beatles record. They haven’t kept up with the times.
'Millennials look younger than Gen Z' discourse from Astrology POV:
While I don't necessarily agree with this, the statement could be easily explained by astrology:
Millennials were lucky enough to be born when Saturn - the planet of aging & time - is in strong dignity: Libra (1983), Capricorn (1988-1991), and Aquarius (1991-1994). Having Saturn in strong dignity (in a sign where it's in domicile or exalted), definitely gives you the privilege and advantage to age gracefully and look better with time.
Millennials also are defined by having their Pluto in Scorpio. Pluto is the planet of transformation, and also regeneration - think of a snake shedding its skin, or skin regeneration. Pluto is in strong dignity (domicile) in Scorpio, which gives millennials another advantage.
Gen Z were born in times when Saturn happens to be in weak dignity (in a sign where it's in fall or in detriment); Aries (1996-1999), Cancer (2003-2005), Leo (2005-2007).
Gen Z are defined by having their Pluto in Sagittarius. Pluto in Sagittarius is neither in strong nor in weak dignity here.
So I am generally extremely positive about aging, especially my own. Despite that, I did have a brief bout of less-than-elation about my upcoming 39th birthday, not in a "ugh oh no I'm old" way, but more of a "I wanna have infinite years to do fun stuff" kind of way.
However, I realised, "I get to be 40 for ten years!!!!! That's so long!!!"
And it is! And I also remembered how all the actors I had crushes on in my teens and early 20's were all in their 40's.
I recorded this video tonight, September 30, 2023. I’m proud to make it to 50 years old. Even though I deal with chronic pain (and insecurity), I’m blessed. *I turned 50 back in May.
