META // ASTROLOGICAL BIRTH CHART ANALYSIS

I have a Sagittarius mercury, and if you don't know what I mean by that you're going to find out when you click the read-more.

See the end of this post for a visual of Kiryu's birth chart

Important Note: I follow traditional astrology rather than modern astrology. I stick to traditional planetary rulers for the signs and use whole sign houses (i.e., the sign that contains the ascendant degree is the first house, and each sign following that is assigned to the following house.) I also do not follow the 12 Letter Alphabet system which essentially makes Planet=Sign=House, and I could write an entire thesis about why, but this is a post about Kiryu not my beef with specific astrology techniques. I’ll just say how I’m interpreting this is much different from how another astrologer might interpret it. Also I’m not going to interpret every single placement and aspect because this is going to be long already, so I’m just going to focus on things that may help to explain my characterization of him.

Disclaimer: We know that Kiryu was born 17 Jun 1968. Because we don’t have a specific birth time for him (as far as I know) I picked one for him that resulted in a chart that I believe is overall pretty fitting. The birth time affects rising/ascendant sign as well as where the houses of the horoscope (the circle chart below) fall. I had like 3 different ascendant signs I thought fit him equally well and ended up going with this one, but I can definitely see a case being made for a different birth time.

Now let’s get astrologying.

The Ascendant

Scorpio: Fixed Water, Ruled by Mars, Detriment of Venus Ascendant: The degree of the zodiac wheel on the horizon at the time of birth. This is the most personal placement and it along with its ruler represent the person themselves. Where the ascendant is determines the first house of the chart which is the house of self.

The best way to describe any Scorpio placement is intense. There is a strong energy with this placement that draws people in as much as it intimidates them. A notable physical trait for a Scorpio Ascendant would be a particularly penetrating gaze but they are as charming as they are intimidating. There’s also an undeniable sex appeal about them.

This being a fixed sign, there is an intense steadfast nature. In general, fixed rising people are loyal at their core, if stubborn at times. Scorpio Risings would in most situations come off as fairly calm even if internally they’re anything but.

Scorpio is a heavily misunderstood sign. With this on the Ascendant, the person themselves may feel misunderstood by others or may even struggle to understand themselves. Despite being deeply emotional, they are also extremely private, especially with matters involving their emotional world. They may end up burying their emotions so far down that even they struggle to understand what they’re feeling. However, this is absolutely a case of the outside being quite deceiving. Being a water sign, Scorpio operates at an emotional level; it’s just that their emotional reaction is to keep things as under wraps as possible so no one else can use their emotions against them. And if they feel threatened, they will strike first so they don’t end up the one who gets hurt. This might make them appear cold from an outside perspective despite the fact that, in truth, they’re anything but that.

I think it's pretty self-explanatory for why I chose this for Kiryu. But if not, just know this is very much how I view him, which is that he someone with an insanely deep well of emotions, but he would fully prefer to deglove his own hand over ever showing an ounce of vulnerability about that.

The Sun

Gemini: Mutable Air, Ruled by Mercury, Detriment of Jupiter 8th House: Death, taboo, longevity, inheritance, other people’s belongings The Sun: The Sun represents a lot of things in traditional astrology but when trying to understand the person themselves (rather than, say, their relationship to the king of their nation or something) the most important is the mind. The Sun also represents the father so it’s sign, placement, and aspects can tell you about the person’s father and the relationship to him.

In regards to the Sun, “the mind” means the person’s philosophy towards life, not their individual thoughts (which are ruled by Mercury.) This philosophy may or may not match up with a person’s inherent tendencies (which are ruled by the Moon) but it tends to be that when this person feels internally like they are at their best self it would be when they’re embodying their sun.

Gemini being an air sign deals with information and communication as well as relationships between people. Being mutable, Gemini is more comfortable with change than not. Gemini wants to know everything about everything just for the sake of knowing it. Gemini also rules the arms/hands so Gemini placements tend to be people who are always fidgeting with things. Gemini can look at two sides of an argument and have trouble deciding which they agree with as both will end up seeming viable to them. They are students of life and particularly love learning through communicating with the people around them.

Before looking at the fact of the 8th House, I honestly think the entire Pocket Circuit nonsense in Y0 and YK1 are perfect examples of Kiryu being a Gemini. Like it’s a new thing for him to learn and figure out and build with his hands just for the hell of figuring it out and having fun with it. There’s no real goal for him with it beyond that.

With the Sun in the 8th, however, this Gemini propensity for curiosity will go towards 8th House subjects more often than not. For example, anything taboo will be highly interesting to this individual to at least learn about if not experience for themselves. I think this is pretty fitting for someone who joined the yakuza at 17.

With the 8th house being the house of death… many astrologers might say it means death like transformation, not death like permanent death. However, particularly with the Sun in the 8th House, that can be a signification of the father dying early in the person’s life. And that can be literal or figurative (i.e., maybe the father in question isn’t actually dead but he’s estranged or somehow otherwise so uninvolved that he may as well be dead.) We know that Kiryu was raised in the orphanage. This could also be a signification of the father or father figure being involved in business signified by the 8th House, and Kazama was the whole reason he wanted to join the yakuza in the first place.

Moon Square Sun - Squares are difficult aspects. They represent a challenge. With the Moon squaring the Sun, this is literally a case of the heart and the head wanting two different, incompatible things. What the person actually needs and what they want for themselves are not aligned.

Sun Sextile Jupiter, Sun Sextile Saturn - This combination stands out to me. Sextiles are positive aspects that are generally cooperative so the planets work well together. Jupiter is the planet of luck, abundance, expansion, and generosity. Saturn is the planet of boundaries, restrictions, time, and harsh lessons. Having the sun in aspect to both generally is a sign that the person can achieve great things if and ONLY if they put in the work to do so. This isn't someone who will fail their way up to success but basically the work they put in is pretty equal to what they get out of it.

Mercury, Venus, Mars

Alongside the sun, they are all also in Gemini in the 8th House. So basically everything about the sign and house still apply here but these planets differ in their meanings.

Importantly, because these planets are so close to the sun, they would all be considered combust. The Sun, being the brightest star in the sky, can outshine planets that are too close to it. If you're looking at the sky when a planet is too close to the sun, you can't see that planet. A planet being combust basically loses its power in some way or becomes hard for the person to control because, with the planet so close to the sun, it is a part of their ego in a way that they are blind to.

Mercury is the planet of thoughts, communication, speech patterns, etc. In Gemini, it is generally strong as it is in the sign of its rulership, however because its combust it can become problematic. There's a difficulty to make decisions because they don't know what they actually want. They may say one thing but then do the opposite. They'll turn down the invitation to your party and show up anyway or vice versa. This isn't them being dishonest or flaky on purpose so much as they obsess so much about making the wrong or right choice that they can convince themselves of both options being both right and wrong.

Venus is the planet of love and romance, sensuality, femininity, beauty, art, and finances. Gemini Venuses already have a bit of a mish-mashed sense of aesthetic taste and their outfits stand out as being quirky. Add Venus being combust to that and you get Kiryu buying the suit that Nishiki made him try on as a prank.

Romantically, Gemini Venus has a reputation for getting bored fast. This is because regardless of whether a Gemini Venus is attracted to someone physically, if they don't feel mentally stimulated by the person then any spark just won't last. They need a mental challenge and a mental connection. Either their partner needs to be a puzzle for them to hopefully never fully solve or be willing to find puzzles to solve together as a couple, otherwise they're going to find that elsewhere. In the 8th house, Venus can go one of two ways, and given that Kiryu's is combust it probably is the less… socially acceptable way. Here, Venus has a tendency to be attracted to things it shouldn't be (by societal standards) and an appreciation for secrecy and mystery. Also, they are probably kinky af and will try anything at least once. With Venus combust, romance may not be a main focus of the person's life due to other circumstances continually coming up and overshadowing it. Usually these would be Sun-related, so being married to your work even if your work is being a yakuza might get in the way of finding love. That's just a random example which may or may not be relevant to Kiryu.

Moon Square Venus - This is especially important in relationships because the Moon represents the emotional life, what a person needs to feel nurtured, and their instincts. These two planets challenging each other implies, to me, a lack of emotional fulfilment from romantic relationships due to Kiryu's own lack of ability to be truly emotionally vulnerable. Since I am writing Kiryu as bi, I do want to note Venus and the Moon are both planets that signify feminine energy, so this may be especially true of relationships with women moreso than men.

Venus Square Pluto - Pluto is the planet that represents the underworld. Normally this is an aspect that manifests pretty non-literally and is very toxic within the dynamic of the people in the relationship themselves. Kiryu is by no means perfect, but I honestly cannot see him being so possessive and emotionally tyrannical that someone involved with him felt like a figurative hostage, if anything he's probably too hands off due to the everything else going on with him. Therefore, I'm going to say that for Kiryu, this takes on a far more literal meaning than it does in an average person's chart. After all, anyone remotely romantically involved with him would be involved in the criminal underworld of Japan either because they already were or because being connected to Kiryu means they inevitably will be. Also the Pluto connection to death and the 8th house connection to death and the fate of one of his canonical romantic interests feels… far too on the nose but astrology is scarily literal like that sometimes.

Mars is the planet of war, anger, conflict, sexuality, and masculinity. It also has a lot to do with physicality such as what type of workout routine a person likes. Firstly, because I already have written too damn much, for insight on sexuality just reread everything already said about Venus and romance but replace romantic/romance with sexual/sex. In Gemini, Mars (like the other planets) has difficulty with choice. A person may be driven to do too many things at once and can’t really focus on trying to achieve one goal at a time either because they don’t know which they want more or because something external prevents them from picking one over the other. Mars in Gemini will also feel compelled to constantly be doing something just for the sake of being active which can lead to a lot of energy spent spinning wheels and going nowhere fast. Mars combust can be lazy and averse to conflict, but in my opinion, equally ineffective is a Mars that doesn’t know how to pick its battles (i.e., solves every problem with a brawl.) Sometimes, you have to find a way around or over a brick wall because continually running into it will just give you a concussion. Mars combust might not have that figured out. Kiryu sure as hell doesn’t and it's kind of a miracle if he doesn't have CTE.

The Moon

Pisces: Mutable Water, Ruled by Jupiter, Detriment & Fall of Mercury 5th House: Pleasure, leisure, hobbies, children, good fortune, honor, generosity, friendship The Moon: In traditional astrology the Moon rules not only emotions, instincts, and needs but also the physical body. The moon can often represent a mother, mother figure, or more generally, the nurturing feminine energies one encounters in life. Thus, an afflicted moon can signify a lack of a nurturing presence during childhood.

Kiryu’s Moon is, in my opinion, the most fascinating placement in his chart. Pisces Moons come in a lot of different flavors. I’ve known multiple and when it comes to the way they display their emotions it really runs the gamut from highly sensitive will cry at the slightest inconvenience to keeping their emotions to themselves almost entirely and you only know they felt anything at all way later when they bring it up after working through it all internally first. The commonalities between people with this placement are more internal. With the Moon in the mutable water sign this implies a constantly evolving emotional landscape. Pisces is ruled by Jupiter, a benefic, so in general this doesn’t mean emotionally being on a sailboat in a hurricane unless other things in the chart imply that. It’s just that everything becomes an experience affecting the direction of their emotional current and they aren't always in control of that.

Pisces absorbs as much as it reflects. When you’re in the water there is no solid barriers. So Pisces Moons are empathetic in the truest sense of the word. They feel what the people around them feel. They feel what the characters in the books they’re reading feel. And, often, they cannot separate their own emotions from these other emotions. So it can be hard for them to articulate their feelings, because which of the things that they’re feeling belong to them? Because of this they often don’t always know in the moment, so they may only figure out which feelings are their own feelings in hindsight.

With the Moon in a Jupiter-ruled sign, to me this is a huge example of Kiryu’s ability to put other people’s needs before his own (sometimes without their input, sure, but y’know.) Jupiter is a very generous planet. Like this and children being represented by the 5th house? Him running an orphanage makes almost too much sense.

Moon Square Mercury - indicates that there is a choice that has to be made between what one thinks is best and what one feels is best. This can also perhaps indicate an inability to communicate in a way that accurately expresses one’s emotions. Like even if the person tries to communicate their feelings it doesn’t verbally translate in a way that paints an accurate picture of the emotions they’re feeling, which can in turn lead to further internal and external conflict.

Moon Square Mars - indicates an inability to control ones emotions and particularly anger, or the person may come off as angry when internally the emotion they’re experiencing is entirely different.

Moon Opposite Pluto - almost always an indicator of major trauma, especially trauma experienced in childhood. With the Moon this is often a mother wound and Pluto being the underworld and death could just signify the trauma was his mother dying. In the case of Kiryu, given that he was raised in the orphanage, this indicates to me that no one ever really filled that role for him. There is a power struggle between himself and his own emotional needs because he was never emotionally nurtured by the adults around him so he never learned how to deal with his emotions in a healthy way. In Kiryu’s case this is perhaps the core reason why he simply buries his emotions and doesn’t acknowledge them.

Moon Opposite Uranus - a struggle between the need for change and independence and the need to be nurtured. This can lead to conflict, particularly with loved ones. In particular, the Moon opposite Uranus person will make radical decisions that have major consequences seemingly out of nowhere and without input from those close to them even when the decisions affect others. There is a tendency to feel alienated from others and as if they don’t really fully belong anywhere. Ironically, almost the only way to keep someone with this aspect close is to hold them at an emotional arms’ length.

Conclusion

Kiryu is a man of many contradictions and even more Gemini placements. At his core, he has a bleeding heart, and that’s true particularly for those closest to him. He is, in fact, nearly incapable of expressing this verbally or in a way that would make sense to normal people in large part because he doesn’t quite fully understand what he’s feeling himself, but that doesn’t mean he’s not feeling it.

An unessecarily in-depth guide to the solar system by an amateur space nerd 🪐

hey! so, I've been wanting to make this post for a while so i can just info dump a bunch of stuff when my brain gets overloaded... so here we are! i'll hope to go a little more in detail (probably more than you'll ever need to know) but also keeping it simple :)

1. BASIC LAYOUT

As we all know, our solar system is centred around the sun, with each planet orbiting at different times and distances, almost in rings around it. I'll draw out a very basic idea of what it would look like simplified.

This layout includes the sun in the centre and 8 main planets orbiting; 4 rocky, solid planets and 4 gaseous planets, separated by an asteroid belt. Some may consider there to be a 9th planet, Pluto, but it has been classified as a dwarf planet since 2006.

And that's all well and dandy but what are the planets actually like?

2. SUN, PLANETS, MOONS

Now, when we think of stars, we think of domething like this: ⭐. Although being adorable, they're far from what stars are actually like.

Our star, also known as "the sun" or it's official name as "Sol", is essentially the basis of our solar system. If we didn't have one, of persay it exploded, the entirety of earth and all the other planets would be wiped out in a heartbeat- but don't worry, we have about another 5.3 billions years before that happens!

Here's a brief diagram to show about where we're at and what would be to come (if a star were bigger than the sun, it would have a different cycle after it's main sequence).

At the moment, our sun is a main sequence yellow dwarf so it's basically just a big mass of heating hydrogen nuclei which fuses to make helium. This means that the sun is constantly making reactions at the moment.

All of our planets rotate, usually on an axis around the sun, and each planet's full rotation is different- for example, earth's 'year' is ~365.25 days, since we have leap years.

The closest planets to the sun are: mercury, venus, earth and mars. After mars is as asteroid belt, which separates the gas giants: jupiter, saturn, uranus and neptune.

Mercury

solid 85% iron core

crust is covered in craters, often referred to as the most cratered planet in our solar system

0 moons

Venus

"volcano planet", about 80% of its surface is covered in volcano plains

incredibly bright

just a little smaller than earth in diameter, but almost the same size

0 moons

Earth

most dense planet in solar system

lots of artificial satellites in orbit, but one natural satellite (moon)

lots of natural observable features like mountains, oceans, rivers, canyons, etc

man-made buildings and architecture

human, animal, bacterial, etc life

1 moon (Luna) that was first

Mars

similar size to earth in diameter

surface covered in rust dust

H20 and C02 ice caps on south and north poles

2 moons (Phobos and Deimos)

Jupiter

1st of the gas giant planets

the biggest planet in the solar system

80 known moons (including Europa and Io, some of the largest)

atmosphere mostly includes hydrogen, helium and methane

it's known to have no solid surface

Saturn

similar atmosphere to Jupiter

saturn's rings are composed of lots of orbiting matter, moons, moonlets, gaps and arcs

83 known moons (including Titan and Dione)

Uranus

one of the ice giants

actually has 13 faint rings orbiting it, though they're harder to see than saturn

27 known moons (including Titania)

also has no observable solid surface but includes its outer atmosphere, ionic water-ammonia oceans and a superionic hot ice mantle

Neptune

five faint dusty rings that orbit the planet

14 known moons (including Despina and Galatea)

Triton, one it its moons, is technically a dwarf planet that was just pulled into neptune's gravity

Including the 8 main planets, there are a lot of dwarf planets (about 19). This includes the previous 'planet' status Pluto, Makemake and Ceres. There are many dwarf planets in the Kuiper asteroid belt just past Neptune.

3. OTHER OBSERVABLE FEATURES

Some of the other things that you will find in the solar system are asteroids, comets and meteors- which are often confused with eachother (something that I fell victim too as well).

Sooooooo what's the difference?

ASTEROIDS- small pieces of rocky body, usually leftover material from the building of the solar system. Asteroids sort of act like minor planets.

Some examples of asteroids include Pallas, Vesta and Eros.

COMETS- at it's core, comets are small celestial bodies made of ice, rock and dust. When they enter an atmosphere near the sun, they produce a trail of dust and gas particles (a process known as outgassing).

Examples of comets include Halley's comet, Forbes and Mry. Most comets are just named after the person who identifies and observes it.

METEOROIDS, METEORS AND METEORITES- meteroroids are originally made from dust grains from asteroids, like little space rocks. When these enter earth's atmosphere (or another planet), they burn up into fireballs, these are meteros (also known as shooting stars!). If that meteor survives it and hits the ground, it's known as a meteorite.

There are other occurrences in the atmosphere including solar events, but those only happen at set times and under certain conditions.

And uhhh this is all I can think to put, so... I hope you enjoyed!

[ If anyone has any extra notes on this or corrections, just let me know! Maybe I'll make more posts like this ]

Annotated Halloween Showcase 1

A seasonal inter-chapter bonus: the first few years’ worth of pumpkin-spice-flavored BICP art.

Above: 2011 Sailor Moon cosplay bonus art!

Bianca is Moon, of course, with Sparrow as her Mars and Patrick as her Luna.

Camellia is Venus, because Reseda makes a perfect Artemis.

Jany (who hadn’t even debuted when I posted this) is Jupiter, and Miranda is Mercury. I thought about swapping those two — Miranda’s more analytic than Jany, but Jany’s arc will have some other parallels to Mercury’s, and besides, she’s awfully short for a Jupiter. Could go either way.

Cybele doesn’t quite fit the theme of the picture, as she’s the only nonhuman playing a human. Still, her color scheme was too close to Chibi-Moon‘s to pass up.

2012 Halloween special:

Witchy flying Cybele, with black cat Reseda in her lap and black raven Poe winging along at her side.

I submitted this to a Halloween art contest, where the contest-runner’s aspirations were, shall we say, out-of-proportion to their results. There were 3 entries, total. The winner was chosen by viewer polling, but on a site with no security or authentication at all — the only limit to “how many duplicate votes can I cast for myself?” was “how much free time do I have?”

I cast a bunch of votes. My housemate at the time even pitched in. My reward for this not-at-all-artistic achievement was $50…and a custom-engraved reward plaque. Like, a physical chunk of acrylic, emblazoned with my name and shipped in the mail. Useless to me, impossible to repurpose for anything else, pointless to give away, and probably cost at least another $50 to produce.

I wish they’d kept the money. (Or added it to the cash reward. But even keeping it for themselves and using it for pizza would’ve added more good to the world.)

…but, uh, setting that whole long tangent aside, at least the art is pretty cute.

2013 Halloween special:

Tiny Miranda and Poe on a table with Halloween cupcakes and candy. The gravestone-decorated cookie is the most on-the-nose in terms of Miranda’s arc…but I also really the appreciate the idea of “she dressed up as a sexy Pokéball.”

I still like the shading on this one. It was done in Paint Shop Pro, which has a pauper’s brush selection compared to PS or CSP, and now most of those drawings make me think “ugh, could’ve done that so much better.” But here, I got weird/experimental with the colors and hues, and I think the limitations of the brushes work with the results instead of hampering them.

i’m not gonna lie to you. i understand very little of this

Oh my god I'm so sorry i took so long to answer this!

edit: I accidentally hit post before i was ready, i’ll edit this a second time with an explanation!

so the easiest thing to explain is the planets; if you have even a small understanding of the roman gods, you more or less know the meanings. you don’t need to understand the farthest three planets, those are generational. Houses are a bit trickier.

sun: your outer world, how you view yourself, the overview, you probably already know the basics. sagittariuses are adventurous, easy-going, and smarter than they let on. They’re biggest downside is their tendency to be a good friend to many but a best friend to none. your sun is in your first house, which basically means you come across more or less as how you are.

moon: your inner world, emotions and imagination. cancer is ruled by the moon, which just means your moon is as moon-y as it can get. cancers are the archetypal mother of the zodiac, they’re maternal and in touch with theirs and others emotions, gaining them a reputation for being either overly sensitive or manipulative, depending on who you talk to. it’s in the 7th house, the house of partnerships (either professional or romantic, as long as it’s one on one). it’s a very hopeless romantic placement, you make an attentive and emotionally intelligent partner, and your emotional state is tied to your partnerships.

mercury: how you communicate and learn. capricorn is the archetypical father, they’re stable, hardworking, and ambitious. your mercury can only be one sign away from your sun, and there’s a... rumor? old wives tale? that if you’re mercury is different than your sun, it means you have a distinctive communication style (taylor also has a sag sun and a capricorn mercury, by the way). it’s in your first house, this is also a very important part of your identity, how you present and see yourself.

venus: how you love. scorpios are... tortured artists. they're intense, mysterious, and drawn to the mystical and taboo. they look for the poetic truth above the factual. they have a hard time expressing this though, especially if it’s not on their terms. it’s in your 11th house, the house of friendship and groups.

mars: your aggression, both positive (passion, willingness to go after what you want) and negative (rage). this is also in scorpio, and also in the 11th house-- your love and anger are two sides of the same coin, which is always fun.

jupiter: your states of growth-- you at your best, but also most taxing. leo’s are ruled by the sun-- they’re big, bright, and like to be at the center of things. healthy leo’s (jupiter signs tend to take the positive aspects of a sign) are good at drawing people in and making them feel comfortable in the spotlight. it is in your 8th house, the house of death and taxes. planets in your eighth house are. i don’t know how to say this nicely, but they're something that will be taken from you, either willingly or by force.

saturn: your states of restriction-- states of rest, but some of the darkest times in your life. gemini’s are clever, above all else. they’re good at adapting to new situations, with the caveat (like jupiter signs, saturn signs take the worst of any given sign) that they’re never settled in themselves. prone to swinging between extremes, two faced, etc. it’s in your seventh house, the house of partnerships-- your world gets smaller as you get more exhausted, you both need and mistrust close relationships.

your chart seems constantly aware of how other people perceive you, and your ability to express your emotions seem-- important, but caged? your heart is strong, and loud, but your ability to express that is... difficult. youre much better at monitoring other people, and your emotional state is deeply tied to that of those you care about. you lean into your intellectual strengths and your ability to please others-- with the exception of your intellect, ego, and reputation (which reside both in yourself and in public), every other major planet is tied to something greater than yourself-- your love, friendship, and fate.

Guessing NCT's rising signs: Huang Renjun as a Cancer rising

Welcome to my first post where I write all about why I think this idol is X rising sign! I don't know how many of these I'll do because it heavily depends on how confident I feel in my guess of their rising lol for Renjun's rising sign, it's something I've been sitting on for a loooong time just to see if anything else comes into my head. At the end of the day we really have no way to know for sure, even if the idols gives us their birth time it still has to be taken with a grain of salt! But it’s still fun theorize and to test your skills while learning at the same time. So for now I feel pretty confident sharing my thoughts on Renjun as a cancer rising.

Let’s ✨explore✨ why:

*:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧long post! *:･ﾟ✧*:･ﾟ✧

✦ Before I even decided to look up his chart layout, there were 2 characteristics of Renjun that initially led me to think he’s a Cancer rising. His eyes and his physique. His eyes aren’t necessarily as big as idols we’ve seen with moon in 1st, but they’re still very notable features of his physical appearance that he’s very well known for. They’re bigger, soft and dreamy, and sometimes look like he quite literally holds stars in his eyes. The biggest physical feature though is his, well, petite frame. Next to his eyes, renjun is also really well know for his smaller build. It’s even a well known inside joke amongst NCT, they all him “big shoulders renjun” (lol) because “for a guy” his shoulders a on the smaller side. Both of these physical attributes can also be identifying characteristics of cancer risings.

✦ So, in general I think he is a Cancer rising. But if we want to be more specific; I do think he is a 3rd decan Cancer rising which is the Pisces/Neptune ruled decan. I initially chose this because his house and planet placements just make so much more sense to me when the rising is in the 3rd decan (I'll get into that below), but after reading about the 3rd decan I also think it fits his personality really well! With the Neptune and Pisces influence, he's more on the open side of Cancer rising but more notably, 3rd decans are a lot more inclined to art/creativity and sometimes, music specifically. These people also have a very dreamy attraction about them. He also has his Venus trine ASC which can further add to this kind of creative vibe he gives off, but is also drawn to! It emphasizes the importance of aesthetics, art and creativity in his life. If you've never been on Renjun stan twt then you might not know that a lot of his fans see him as this incredibly dreamy and ethereal boy (as they should) and I can see why!

*:･ﾟ✧house and planet placements *:･ﾟ✧

Scorpio moon, Sagittarius Pluto in 5th:

✦ yea... just yes. Okay but actually, if you read my NCT Dream Hexaco x Birth Chart analyses, I talked a lot about his chart already because I really like it. As someone with a Scorpio moon, I can't help but be really interested in how his plays out. And I have to say, I am quite attached to this theory because I think his scorpio moon in 5th just. makes. sense. I'm not going to go much into the descriptions of the placements, I'm mostly going to stick to the house influence. We know that Scorpio moons have really intense emotions, they internalize everything and are just highly sensitive people to their environments. Renjun has been incredibly open about his mental and emotional struggles ever since being a kid. I've honestly never heard an idol talk about their struggle like he has. He even opened up recently about how a few years ago he had an art therapist that really helped him and lowkey changed his life. I feel like a lot of this can be reflected in his 5th house. The house of creativity, expression, creation. His 5th cusp is also in Scorpio. 5th house in water tend to be really drawn to arts and music. Having a Scorpio moon, a moon sign that can be quite guarded, in a fire house can also explain his readiness/openness to share his emotions and art. Also let's not forget his chart ruler is his Scorpio moon in 5th! What I've wrote above are big themes in his life, which we've seen.

✦ As for the Pluto in 5th. Because his 5th house is in Scorpio this would mean the 5th ruler is in 5th. I know it might not make sense at first because it's pluto and pluto is misunderstood. But it makes perfect sense to me. Pluto in 5th is a deeply passionate and creative placement. It bring so much energy to this house, and can even create a borderline obsession with themes of this house. With creating and expressing. But I could also see having this and his scorpio moon in this house bringing so much energy, it just kind of adds to the confusion and intensity of a scorpio moons emotions and processing abilities, like, emotionally overwhelming. Scorpio moons always need an outlet and they usually figure that out the hard way at some point in life. The outlet can vary based off the chart, his is without a doubt connected to his art; whatever that may be to him.

───────────────────────────────────

Aquarius Uranus in 8th:

✦ This part is brief because it's more of like, additional details to what's already in his chart. Something that is really well known about Renjun too is how much he is into space and aliens and stuff like that. He, once again, has been very open about it lol on variety shows I've seen him light up every time its briefly mentioned and he'll comment on how much he finds that stuff interesting. The 8th house is weird, it can manifest in a lot of different ways. The biggest point here for me is that the house is in Aquarius with Uranus here. I know someone with this placement too and, while they're open minded to astrology and tarot etc. it's a bit more focused on logic. I can't say for sure because I don't know him, but he kind of strikes me as the kind of person that would fight to death over aliens existing, but draws the line at astrology lol. I actually do think he would be open to astrology and tarot, but he'd need the right introduction to it. Anyways, yea this placement to me explains a lot of his interest in space and things we don't understand. He's expressed his curiosity in it. I think a lot of this is coming from his Scorpio moon and Pisces mercury/venus which is why I think it's just additional support.

───────────────────────────────────

Pisces Mercury/Venus in 9th:

✦ THIS HOUSE right here... so much to say. Firstly, Pisces in 9th is probably one of the main culprits for his creativity, deep thinking and curiosity in the world. And more importantly: his imagination. I've mentioned this a lot when I talk about renjun but, he's very well known for his creativity, but I want to make it clear that there is a distinction between creation and imagination. His imagination is truly... on another level. Well, planet actually since it's pisces! Again, amongst fans it's really well known his imagination is just so unqiue. This is less about the 9th house and more about the fact that he has 2 pisces placements but it still affects it lol. He's very open about his imagination and speaks about it so naturally. He shared his drawing of a bird, hybrid, thing? and how it's an animal that steals your dreams in your sleep. Anyways, Pisces in 9th aren't necessarily the travelers we'd see with an air or fire sign here, but they like to travel mentally. He's also talked about how he's just in general a very curious person and you can tell his thoughts probably travel far and wide in his down time.

✦ What's really interesting to me about this house is his mercury is here and Mercury in 9th is a very specific kind of placement. It almost always guarantees an interest and talent in learning languages. I don't know if languages are necessarily a passion for him but he definitely is interested and cares about learning language and other cultures. He also did pick up on Korean and English with ease. Which also reminds me that, he actually was exposed to Korean at a young age because I'm pretty sure he went to a bilingual school (chinese and korean). This is also a big deal to me because planets in 9th, especially sun/mercury often indicate very early exposure to languages or other cultures... so yea that checks out. This can also be proved by looking at his IC in Virgo, which puts the ruler in 9th. His mercury is also sextile Jupiter. I also wanna comment that he has his Mercury in the 5th degree, I'm not great at degree theory yet but that feels significant to me. Of course we cannot forget his absolutely angelic voice. Renjun is also very well known for his stunning vocals. Not only are Pisces placements musically inclined but Pisces mercury are known for their sweet voices.

✦ As for the venus is 9th, I feel like I have more to say on his venus being in Pisces because that's where so much of his artistic creativity and imagination come from. But venus here adds to a lot of what I've written above, adding to his curiosity of the world. What I find most interesting about venus in 9th though, is it brings another inclination to art! He might really like art from different places in the world, or just exploring all types of art being very open minded to its different forms etc. Venus here also brings ease to language learning, and these people will naturally have other cultures and people from them as a big part of their life. I feel like, in general it's not surprising at all to me that as a foreign member (being from China), that he would have 9th house influence! It can often manifest as like.., travel, other languages, cultures and parts of the world etc. are just very naturally a part of their life. Some people never really contemplate life overseas or in another country. But for 9th housers, it's never not been an option. His 9th house influence can also make him a great teacher, mentor and just overall supportive person. We've seen some of this in the content he's made with NCT. Like trying to teach his members chinese with Chenle, except he was taking it way more seriously lol but was so supportive. He's also tried to get Jeno and Jisung involved in his art making, but keeping the process very open and fun.

───────────────────────────────────

Aries sun, Taurus mars in 10th:

✦ This is the last part I'm going to cover because it is really just the icing on the cake to finish this up. The 10th house is considered pretty important when looking at celebrities/idols because it's very likely a lot of what we see from them is their 10th house influence. In the chart model I'm using for Renjun, it puts his MC in the very last degrees of Pisces, so there's a chance it's in Aries but either way with his sun and mars here they are still playing a big role. So for that reason, I'm opting for Pisces MC. I also think Pisces MC fits though because first it puts the ruler in his 7th house. Meaning he could really benefit and work well in something that involves a group! Because it's Pisces in Neptune, it also adds to his very ethereal vibe and how people just seem to love him wherever he goes. He's very magnetic and can come off as artistic and sensitive. He's known for being dreamy, unreal, artistic, sensitive.

✦ Again, we know he has an aries sun and taurus mars so I'm not going to explain them here, just how they affect the house, but having his these here makes so much sense to me too. Having planets in 10th also influences what kind of "vibe" people get from you, and what you're "known" for. Mars and Sun bring similar energy of being well known for for energy, drive, and even stage presence. Not being afraid to be on stage, being good with attention and spotlight. He's known for his kind of playful and childish behavior at times. He is charismatic, bold, brave, happy and upbeat. With the sun, he is again known for his creativity and creations and also self-expression.

─────────────────────

Thank you to anyone who read all this. I don't really expect many people to because I'm mostly writing this for my own curiosity and to finally just put this theory out there! Anyways, stan Renjun best boy <33

Thoughts and feedback are always welcome <3

Ask: Rituals of the Hexagram

Anon asks: “Hi! Best of luck getting prepped for a mom visit :x I can relate to that. I was wondering if you could go over the lesser and greater hexagram rituals? I’m mainly confused about the greater, actually. I “get” it, but some sources say you need to start with the analysis of the keyword, others seem to bypass it. Also the way to do the solar hexagram seems really confusing. Do you have any advice please?”

Thanks for the [mom-visit] luck, Anon :) It is greatly appreciated.

Okay, oof... This question runs arms-flailing directly into my [Solomonic Spectrum] philosophy: I am solidly on the Grimoire side, and the Hexagram Rituals are squarely on the Lodge side. That is to say, I do not perform these rituals. While there is some grimoire evidence pointing to a [possible] LBRP precursor, there is nothing I’ve ever found resembling the Hexagram Rituals.

That said, I do have some thoughts for you.

The biggest thing to keep in mind is how these rituals stem from the Second Order of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn; as such, their pure original forms are not really known. We have lots of A.:A.:, post-A.:A.: GD reconstructionist, and neo-pagan materials on the subject, though, and they all tend to be slightly different while at the same time claiming to be the “secret original teachings.” Obviously, YMMV.

Since your question is specifically about the Greater Ritual, let’s just focus on that.

Where you do the Analysis of the Keyword seems to be dependent on which GD splinter group path your version of the ritual traveled. Thelema uses the Analysis at the beginning where others use the Qabalistic Cross or Middle Pillar (or both). All forms I’ve seen do end with the Analysis, however, so its importance as a type of ritual closing seems to be ubiquitous. Since the Greater ritual is usually preceded by other rituals, it seems this opening bit is somewhat flexible, depending on if you just did a version of it already or not.

The planetary hexagrams are drawn by starting at the point associated with the planet then tracing in the appropriate direction for the first triangle and starting from the opposite point for the second triangle.

For example, for the Lunar Hexagram, you start at the bottom point. The following image breaks it out by color - you start at the bottom and follow the pink lines first, then switch to the top point and follow the green lines.

The Sun hexagram is different - Because the Sun is bringing balance, you are actually drawing ALL of the planetary hexagrams in order: Saturn, Jupiter, Mars, Venus, Mercury, the Moon. This is why the diagrams usually look like a mishmash of arrows:

But with the Sun, rather than start at the points associated with the planet for the hexagram you’re tracing, you start in the center, and you make a deliberate and purposeful return to the center to start the next sequence. For example, starting Sun with the Hexagram of Saturn, you deliberately begin in the center, move up to Saturn’s point, trace the entirety of the hexagram, then return back to the Sun at the center.

With that, you’ve completed arrows 1 and 2 in the mishmashed diagram. Now, you would move on to arrows 3 and 4, which correspond with Jupiter's hexagram.

The important thing to remember is to always start and end at the center, and make your movements from the center deliberate… you are not just passing through the center to get a planet’s starting triangle point, you are starting at the Sun and deliberately moving its influence through that planet’s hexagram.

I hope that was at least marginally helpful, Anon. Best of luck to you!

not me drawing and interpreting proper astrological birth charts for the jjk main trio now that the official fan book finally gave us their birthplace in addition to their birthday 👀

Explanation under the cut! (edited to be more beginner friendly)

Quick disclaimer ig: this is just my personal interpretation of these placements. If you read the way I describe something and you think to yourself “hang on, I have this placement and this doesn’t sound like me at all” that would be because a) I am an amateur astrologer and I do this for fun, I don’t know everything about every sign/planet, and b) no placement exists in isolation - it’s influenced by the house it’s in as well as any other planets aspecting it - so it’s possible that the placement manifests in a less conventional/standard way due you because of such factors.

EDIT: my first draft of this post was not super beginner friendly so here’s a quick astrology 101 to help people understand wtf I’m talking about. Skip to the next photo if you don’t need a primer.

Everyone has ten main planets in their birth chart, each of those planets will fall under a different sign depending on when and where you were born. The planet governs an area of your personality, the sign shows what that area of your personality is like. Some quick definitions of the relevant planets for this post:

Sun: the one everyone thinks of when asked ‘what’s your star sign’. Your basic personality, your core, your ego.

Moon: symbolises emotion, intuition, your private internal world, and how feelings are expressed.

Mercury: symbolises communication, intellectual reasoning, and how you learn.

Venus: symbolises romance, aesthetics, how you socialize, and pleasure-seeking behaviours like shopping or sightseeing.

Mars: the source of your passion/drive/motivation. Symbolises where and how you expend your energy.

Retrograde: not a planet, just something the planets do sometimes. At some points in the year the planets look like they’re moving ‘backwards’ through the sky, and this alters their influence on the birth chart.

I think that’s probably enough but shoot me an ask if you’re curious/confused! I’m always happy to talk astrology (clearly lol)

Megumi... I always suspected he had scorpio influence somewhere in his chart and turns out I was right!! Not only scorpio venus but scorpio mars too?? I’m obsessed with this. Scorpio is a water sign (read: big on emotions), the embodiment of the phrase ‘still waters run deep’, and though scorpio placements are not always loud about their affection they tend to bond in a pretty intense way with their chosen people. Those venus and mars placements together really do speak of ride or die devotion - no wonder he’s Like That when it comes to Yuuji people he cares about.

His jupiter and saturn are both in retrograde; I would not have predicted it because I don’t think about natal retrograde all that much, but it actually makes a lot of sense imo. Retrograde jupiter usually indicates someone who is internally very philosophical in the sense that the person will define their own firm moral/ethical code instead of following a familial or societal belief system, which is pretty much megumi ‘I save people according to my own conscience’ fushiguro in a nutshell. While retrograde saturn is basically like. On the outside you’re stoic but on the inside you’re a worrywart, and you take responsibility Super Seriously but you also don’t like people with authority pushing you around needlessly. Which is also megumi in a nutshell lol.

His leo moon was a surprise but I honestly think it works for him because this is definitely where Unhinged Feral Megumi comes from: when he decides to go all out he gets such a flair for the dramatic. capricorn sun and capricorn mercury are pretty intuitive tbh, he really gives off capricorn vibes - practical, reserved, loyal, ambitious and tenacious, possessing a dry wit, capable of putting in steady hard work to get to where he wants to be.

I was already aware of Nobara’s leo sun because we’ve had their birth dates for a while now (birthplace is the new info which lets me draw the whole chart). But her cancer moon is such a lovely placement under that hard outer shell of hers. Nobara seems like she does not have a nurturing bone in her body, but it’s wrong to stereotype cancers as exclusively homebody motherly types - they have deep loyalty for their chosen family/home and they’ll go to the ends of the earth for those people in their own way whatever that may be... she really is a softie deep down 🥰 she really does care 🥰 thinkin about the end of her ch 125 flashback in this context

Nobara’s virgo mercury is actually kind of funny to me because while it indicates a natural gift for intellect and a talent for sorting out the fine details, it also has the potential to make someone a harsh critic who can nitpick and be quite blunt in stating their opinions... this is very Nobara, she does Not spare the feelings of anyone she is talking to lol.

Libra venus!! She has libra venus that’s so perfect!!! this placement is sophisticated and charming and always classy, these people adore that classic chocolates-and-roses romance but they turn love of all kinds into an art form. Traditionally the placement is also associated with people who care about beauty and harmony, who will go out of their way to look good for their companions. Also her leo mars... I love that. It’s really amplifying her bold outspoken flashy self-loving take-charge nature. Queen energy right here.

She has a bunch of natal retrogrades but the one I want to talk about is retrograde uranus... this one is Very fitting and again almost funny in the context of her character. You know how she’s always convinced she’s the only sane person in the room when actually she’s the unhinged one 24/7 and not self aware about that in the slightest? Yeah. That’s big retrograde uranus vibes.

Oh Yuuji... I could talk about your pisces sun all day 🥺 I could get Very technical and meta about the pisces association with the twelfth house and the fact that it’s ruled by neptune and what that says about his character, but I don’t have the room or the time so I’ll save that for another post. For now I’ll just say that the fact that he cares so deeply for others regardless of how well he knows them, the way he feels his feelings so intensely and is very intuituve/sensitive to others needs, him being interested in the occult before he ever found Sukuna’s fist finger, it all just seems more pisces to me than any other sign. And him having pisces mercury + pisces uranus in addition to his sun is also very sweet... our boy really thinks with his heart at all hours of the day doesn’t he?

His libra moon is such a fitting placement, too, because this moon is all about relationships - not just romance but bonds of all kinds, friends and family and companions of any sort. Yuuji as a character is so motivated by the bonds he shares with others and his desire to not be alone, especially on his deathbed. Libra moons are charming and personable and find it very easy to connect with others, they are deeply concerned with justice and will be accepting of everyone except for people who are cruel (exhibit a: just look how he responded to mahito). I think it’s a very apt moon for him to have.

Tbh if I were picking and choosing I might have loaded him up with yet more pisces energy and given him my favourite placement in the whole world, venus in pisces. But he actually has an aquarius venus and I think that’s so interesting! The part of this placement that speaks to his character for me is the way that aquarius venus love is defined by radical acceptance - there is never any judgement (I won’t judge you, Junpei!), because this venus seeks not only to see and understand but to be seen and understood in turn. Some say aquarius venus is an emotionally detached placement. I think that’s a mischaracterisation, but it is true that aquarius placements can be low key scared of intimacy and vulnerability even when they crave it lmao. An aquarius venus will sort through turmoil in their heart by retreating to think it over in isolation, rather than by submitting to the mortifying ordeal of being known and reaching out. Manga readers if u know u know

All I can say about his capricorn mars is that it definitely embodies that determined protagonist vibe. Thoughts like ‘I want to get stronger, I want to be the best, I’ll put in the work to come out on top’ are very capricorn thoughts to have, and the drive and forward momentum associated with mars really push them to the front of his character. But also, again; an underdeveloped capricorn mars under stress will shut out possibilities for connection with loved ones by dedicating themselves to their job or cause. Yuuji learn healthy coping mechanisms challenge 2k21.

#I’m surprised all the placements mapped on to the characters so well!#especially since I’m sure akutami was not manipulating their birthday/birthplace to fit western astrology #jjk #jujutsu kaisen #fushiguro megumi #megumi fushiguro #kugisaki nobara #nobara kugisaki #itadori yuuji #yuuji itadori #itadori yuji #yuji itadori #jjk meta #this was fun I can’t wait to do more once the official fan book comes out #jjk astrology #originalcontent #long post

Electional astrology: social media charts pt 2

I was asked to do this post so I decided to dive deeper into the topic. Now, I'm not an expert on electional astrology and these are just my intuitive thoughts on what I think might be the best for a social media account (and I think it might apply the best for something like instagram because it’s a very visual and quality-oriented platform). Also keep in mind that this is more advanced astrology so it’s okay to feel a bit overwhelmed, I’ll try to explain everything as well as I can.

Also, we’re talking astrology for social media accounts, this isn’t anything serious and just something you can test and play with if you want. Lastly, what I that think is worth mentioning when it comes to electional astrology OVERALL: as much as making your decisions based on transits may be very useful, don't get too paranoid on choosing the right date for whatever you want to do. Obviously if you can wait to launch something, then sure, wait, but if it's an emergency situation then please don't postpone it just because Mercury's in retrograde or Mars is making a square or whatever.

Okay so let's get into it. 1. Rising sign: in my last post I mentioned the importance of choosing the right rising sign. You’re basically creating a new entity that is your social media account so I’d definitely pay ettention to that - you need a good first impression and someting that would draw people to whatever you’re presenting. I think you can never go wrong with a Leo rising, you’re going to shine no matter what. Gemini rising seems like a good idea as well, since it's all about communication. Also Libra, if you want to present yourself nicely; or Pisces cause it’s the idealized one. I wouldn’t recomment having ascendant in Aries or Scorpio cause these can be too polarizing and off-putting for some.

2. Moon: I'd honestly recommend going for signs mentioned above. Just anything that's upbeat: air or fire Moons are great. If you can, use the time of waxing Moon (so between New Moon and Full Moon). Make sure Moon is making trines or sextiles (no tense aspects to the Moon!), it should be fairly easy thanks to the fact that it moves fast.

3. Planets in the houses:

in the 1st: Sun, Venus, Mercury or Jupiter would be favourable;

in the 2nd if you want to make a living out of it;

in the 3rd for good communication;

in the 5th for creativity;

in the 6th to build a consistency (because no one wants to be one of those accounts that posts every once in a month lol) - Saturn in the 6th might be good, Uranus or Neptune in not very advisable;

in the 7th to have nice relations with others;

in the 9th for growth and reaching people worldwide;

on the MC/in the 10th for success and "looking good" (Jupiter/Sun/Venus would be amazing on the MC, especially if one of those would be the chart ruler. Saturn could be good for slow and steady success if you’re willing to put much work into it);

in the 11th if you want to be seen and build a community. 11th house is the house of groups and internet so it's a no brainer.

I would advise against having too much emphasis on the houses 4th, 8th, 12th. Avoid having Saturn in the 1st at all costs. Same with Chiron. Or having them in the extroverted houses (1st, 3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, 11th) cause they can block your communication and make you self-concious (resulting in, for example, constatly deleting your posts and not being satisfied with the account, especially if it’s supposed to be visually pleasing). Also pay attention to the house north node falls in, aka where you’re headed.

4. Aspects: obviously pay attention to this as well. Don't be like me and sign up on instagram when there's a million squares in the sky and nothing else lol. A nice trine between Moon and Venus is always very welcome. Or between Mercury and Moon (*wink wink*). Mercury in flowing aspects. Sun-Jupiter connections would be great. Squares and oppositions aren't bad, they bring the need to release the energy, squares in particular give us a push (we don't want laziness ha), just don’t have too much of them. Any flowing aspects to Jupiter or Saturn would be very much welcome as well.

5. Retrogrades: yeah I would wait these out. Especially from Mercury, Venus, Mars and Jupiter. Generational planets are in retrograde for the majority of the time so I wouldn't pay that much attention to them.

6. Quick examples of topics associated with each sign, depending on what your social media is about. You can look at the house meanings to, for example, have Sun or Moon fall into the one that represents your interests (want a blog on astrology? Have Sun in the 9th etc).

Aries: sports, fitness, games, movies, creativity, leadership type of things, just anything that’s lively.

Taurus: fashion, music, ASMR, food, gardening, arts in general.

Gemini: communication, memes, writing, crafts, really anything cause Geminis can do anything ;)

Cancer: writing, poetry, history, vintage stuff, painting, home decor.

Leo: all forms of arts (music/theater/dance etc), hobbies & creativity, sports.

Virgo: this is the Marie Kondo energy, fitness and nutrition, writing, journalism, crafts, gardening, pets.

Libra: art, fashion, styling, hair & makeup, music, interior design, photography.

Scorpio: the occult, anything witchy, body modifications, criminology, taboo topics, art.

Sagittarius: journalism, writing, books, astrology, spirituality, travel, teaching, comedy, entertainment, sports.

Capricorn: anything authoritative, business-type stuff, politics, law, teaching, socials for managers/PR.

Aquarius: all sorts of creativity, writing, tech stuff, media, social issues, science, sci-fi.

Pisces: all forms of arts, humanitarianism, spirituality, anything water-related (water sports etc).

7. Lastly, there's no set rules really. You just have to look at the chart and kind of get the feel of it. You don’t have to be very particular with your chart either, I’m 100% sure you won’t be able to check all marks from this lil guide. And remember that you’re still you and you won’t suddenly change your own personality, interests and how you interact with people just because your social media chart looks a certain way.

Have fun with it and good luck!

@shimmerge asked:

What are some ways you chose to honor or work with Jupiter if you do? I'm limited in my ability to do rituals and wanted to try to do smth for this Thursday since Jupiter is in my sign that day

Doing work on Thursday is a great idea, since that’s Jupiter’s day! Jupiter is the planet of expansion, prosperity, and abundance - many people think of Venus as the money planet, but Jupiter is actually the most ideal for bringing in a steady flow of ever-increasing cash. And while Mercury may be the perfect road-opener to create new opportunities, Jupiter is the one that will make sure those opportunities keep paying off.

Some basic stuff: Jupiter’s color is blue, its traditional number is 4, and its glyph looks like this. Some herbs associated with Jupiter that might be easy to find depending on where you live are dandelion, honeysuckle, and sage. Jupiterian stones are anything blue (especially sugilite and sapphire) so even if you have glass beads or fake stones, as long as they’re blue, go for it! No need for fancy rocks that cost a fortune or take up space.

Things to Do (under the cut)

Wear blue: Jupiter is known for his kingship, and what better way to honor the king than to wear his colors? If you don’t have any blue clothes, then blue nail polish, blue jewelry, or even blue lipstick can be a great way to carry his power around with you all day. For maximum effect, combine it with gold for wealth, green for money, or orange for opportunity (associated with Mercury!)

Light a blue or white candle: This is a pretty easy one as well, if you have access to both candles and fire. Carve something into it, rub it down with oil, roll it in herbs, whatever you like - or just sit gazing into the flames, the way humans have done for hundreds of thousands of years. (We are all part of something bigger than ourselves.)

Meditate: This would be a great thing to do while your candle is lit, especially if you don’t want to leave it unattended (which you should never do anyway unless it’s in a jar AND you’ve taken extra precautions!) Sit quietly somewhere you won’t be disturbed and visualize yourself having everything you want as if you already have it. What is your life like? What do you do each day? How does it make you feel? Now backtrack: visualize how you got there. See how one thing led to another which led to another, taking you all the way from where you are now to where you want to be. Feel proud of yourself! Allow yourself to be sure that things will happen just this way.

Draw a sigil: My sigil formula is symbol that reminds me what I’m trying to achieve + symbol of a thing that can help me achieve it. Trying to get more money? Doodle the glyph for Jupiter combined with a dollar sign until you come up with a design that looks nice, and there you are. Draw it in a notebook, tear it out, and hang it up. Carve it into a candle with a penknife or a paper clip. Draw it in black sharpie on something that is also black. Paint it with water on a window or a door. Draw it on an index card to put in your wallet (very appropriate for Jupiter!) Don’t like designing? Just use the symbol linked above - the important thing is that you’re making a mark with intention.

Write a petition: Write down what you want in the present tense, as if you already have it. “I am wealthy, with no financial worries for the future. I have more than enough money to buy clothes and go to restaurants. I fly first class when I travel, which I do often.” Get into detail! Be descriptive and passionate. Many people become so overwhelmed with emotion at this part that they start to cry, and that’s a good thing. When you’re finished, take the paper and burn it, bury it, throw it into running water, tear it up and throw it off a cliff, whatever. Just put it out into the universe and out of your mind, so it can do its work.

Make a vision board: Jupiter is a big, big thinker, so make something that depicts your long-term goals and your wildest dreams. It’s best to do this with your hands, as in a physical collage, but pinterest boards and tumblr aesthetics work too! The important thing is that you don’t limit yourself in your vision. Your goals are more realistic than you think.

Make big plans: You know that thing you’ve always said you were going to do? Commit to it now! Buy the guitar you’ve always been meaning to learn to play, make that big painting you’ve been thinking of for a while now, or call up your old college friend and tell them you’re planning on visiting next year. The first step is often the biggest and hardest one to take, so once that’s out of the way, the rest of the details will become a lot easier to sort out.

Do something generous: True kingship is stewardship. If there is something you have an abundance of, whether it’s time, knowledge, patience, or skill, consider giving some to a person who could use it, just to help them out. When we are generous with the world around us, we express our trust that the world will be generous with us in return.

Cook with butter or eat something deliciously fatty: Be generous with yourself too! Jupiter is not stingy with the good stuff, so don’t hold out in the name of discipline. Some great foods to incorporate would be fruit, cheese, nuts, meats, bread, pie, cake, or champagne. The king doesn’t need a reason to throw a feast, and neither do you!

Money Making Magic

Who wants to easily attract money and money-making opportunities? I know I do. This post is all about tips and tricks as well as correspondences for financial gain.

First lets focus on what not to do, these are the mistakes you are making that could be blocking the flow of money:

–Clutter: yes, mess can have an unfavorable effect on your money. It is very important to keep your environment neat and tidy, Pests will literally eat away at your money, and having loose change lying around shows that you don’t value your money.

–Holding on to receipts: these are reminders of money going OUT, and money will continue to go out if you carry a bunch of receipts with you. If you must keep them organize them in a place that is not your wallet. Also, credit cards are reminders of borrowing money, keep them to a minimum.

–Poor Money Mindset: whether you have been taught through your past experiences that you don’t deserve money, or you feel like money goes more than it comes, or even that money is the root of all evil, you need to try to work with your shadow side to change your negative perception of money. These thoughts are definitely money blockers.

–Ignoring the Opportunities: if you are blind to all the different ways you can make money in this day in age, you may be stuck in the 9-5 mind frame, traditional jobs are not the only way to gain financial stability. Explore 5 different ways you can make Multiple Streams of Income today, I currently have 4 ways that actually bring money to me but my goal is to have over 10 streams of income.

–You don’t know how to Budget: every month you should sit down and write all of your necessary expenses (rent, gas, groceries, etc.) and think of ways to cut down on all the extras (like limiting fast food, choosing netflix over the theater, or splitting wine cost with a friend). It’s not fun, but it is important and it helps you get real about your money and your needs.

Now that you know what NOT to do you can focus on what to do to start attracting more funds in your life:

-Get to know the planets, Mercury, JUPITER, and Venus.

Mercury (Wednesday) rules communication, commerce, and travel which are important aspects to understand when attracting money in this very global marketing time we live in, use Mercury energy to communicate what you have to offer to potential customers around the world through social networks.

Jupiter (Thursday) is the best tool for money magick, he is the benevolent giver of the universe only concerned with abundance and expansion. Just ask for what you want here with passion, and allow Jupiter to pull the strings to get you to the next level in life. This planet is associated with freedom and mastery, freedom from working for others, mastery of the skills you need to create your own opportunities.

Venus (Friday) is best known for love and beauty, but also art and luxury. This is the planet that will make you look like a million dollars and help you attract it as well. Use the charms of Venus to seal the deal at an interview or business meeting. She can help you be more attractive and therefore more persuasive.

-Get in a Giving Mood

It is the holidays and you may see more people giving from their hearts, but to attract money easily you must always be in the giving mood. Charge some money (Start with 10 $1 bills) with the intent of great return, you can do this by drawing a sigil on them or chanting over them something along the lines of…This money will return to me a hundred-fold! Now take all of the money and give to the poor and homeless in your city, do not spend the money any other way. Now watch the money come back in many different ways, and repeat the whole thing over even increasing the money that you are giving to the needy.

-Money Rituals

Create some different rituals to perform, such as a money attracting floor wash for your home or business, a money drawing mojo bag that you wear to business meetings, a candle spell, or any other rituals you can think of. Be specific with how much you need, or at least specify what you will be using the money for to give the universe some direction. I cant tell you how many time I attracted random checks in the mail for $4 or less, that’s what not being specific gets you!

Here are some herbs/crystals/correspondences that you can use in your money magick…

Herbs/Spices- Basil, Cinnamon, Allspice, Bay leaves, Clove, Dill, Ginger, Marjoram, Nutmeg, Rosemary, Sage, Vervain

Crystals- Citrine, Pyrite, Green Aventurine, Jade, Quartz, Sodalite

Correspondences- The colors green, gold, Thursdays (Jupiter), Money/Coins (real/fake), I ching coins, Bamboo, Money Sigils, Pumpkins, Road Openers, Cinnamon Brooms, Keys, Ox symbols, Goldfish, Horseshoe

I hope this post is helpful to you guys!! Now go attract some money and support Magically Bree on Patreon.com/Magicallybreeblog!!

With Love, Magically Bree

are you ignoring my analysis of lana del rey's chart because i'm right or because you're still working out how to answer? no pressure i just think i made some pretty solid arguments that would be fair to acknowledge

I didn’t answer you because you were rude. Was it a solid argument? You’re hiding behind anon when you could have easily reblogged my post and write whatever you wanted to write there. Aside from that, there is no argument, you’re literally creating a conspiracy theory on a celebrity. You’re asking me to rebuttal a conspiracy theory. I’m saving you from embarrassment (which I already think you know your little theory is way out there since again, you’re hiding on anon), but if you want me to “debunk” what you said:

So far your argument is literally attractive woman = Venusian.

Also,

This is the profile you’re trying to claim is a Taurus rising. I even showed this to my brother, who know nothing about astrology, and asked him to guess her sign. At first before I showed him he was like “Olivia, I’m not gonna get it, I don’t know astrology” and the moment he actually saw the photo he bursted out laughing and said Scorpio. Scorpio is literally the easiest to spot. They are the most distinctive archetype. It doesn’t take an expert to see the Scorpio just radiating off someone and Lana is the perfect example of this.

Also, just a random commenter on an interview of her’s;

Natalie Portman is also a Scorpio rising. This wasn’t the only comment drawing a connection between them, they do have very similar mannerisms/way of speaking.

“...in love with love and beauty” So you’re talking about her values? Venus is in Taurus. I did mention in the original anon that this is still a prominent influence in her chart because Venus is in its ruler.

“... Lilith on the ascendant.” Just stop. This includes all of you insinuating this lunar void makes you embody some sort of ✨Queen Of Darkness✨ vibes. I’ve done posts on Lilith before, you can read them here and here to understand my perspective on this.

Just because you’re the exception doesn’t mean you’re the rule. Just from that first statement, it looks like you’re projecting yourself onto this celebrity and feeling some sort of dissonance because you don’t share the same rising sign. If you need a sign that you’re not like other girls, here it is.

The Ascendant indicates what planet rules your chart, not the Sun. By your logic, Mercury wouldn’t rule her chart, Venus would. But this is a conspiracy theory and she is a Scorpio rising with a Mars chart ruler in Cancer. Regardless, her Mercury in Cancer still influences her even if it’s not her chart ruler, and yeah, you can see that in her writing. She is inspired heavily by the past and the occult in her writing (Mercury in Cancer in the 8th). She has a pretty large emphasis coming from both her 8th and 9th house. The 8th house occupies her Sun, chart ruler, and of course Mercury. A lot of time and energy is spent around the dealings of the 8th house. Her Moon is in the 9th house and the line “it’s nice to love and be loved, but I’d rather know what god knows” is in line with that if it comes from the heart. She spends a lot of time familiarizing herself with divine love to possibly compensate or replace a different type of love. Divine love is unconditional, but difficult to know. We also see the Moon opposite Jupiter in the third. This might indicate a transition in her life where she replaced some of her views or experienced some sort of existential crisis. The third house indicates early developments; with Jupiter there it indicates being surrounded by religiousness or spirituality at a young age. Here’s a quote from her,

“When I was very young I was sort of floored by the fact that my mother and my father and everyone I knew was going to die one day, and myself too. I had a sort of a philosophical crisis. I couldn’t believe that we were mortal. For some reason that knowledge sort of overshadowed my experience. I was unhappy for some time. I got into a lot of trouble. I used to drink a lot. That was a hard time in my life”

In her transition that we see between the 3rd and 9th house, she worked towards familiarizing (Moon) herself with the truth (9th house). The truth being what God or divine love means to her. She actually majored in philosophy in her post-secondary studies.

This is all just from reading literally a slice of her chart, and I should emphasize, her actual chart, not a theorized one.

Again, Venus is in Taurus. She has Taurus influence in her chart. The 2nd and 3rd house could be empty and you can still become a successful singer. The 2nd house only indicates the condition of the voice itself and planets in the third indicate the quality of knowledge or quality of words she uses. Again, Jupiter is in the third house and is very reflective of her ideas, early development, and ability to grasp the world.

“James Franco... was madly, obsessively in love with her” This is a speculation, you were not there to experience their relationship. This goes for any relationship you’re not in. With no firsthand perspective, you don’t really know how the relationship was. Again, this is a conspiracy theory and you’re not using her real chart.

“sorry, your intuition was wrong here” At what point did my intuition intuit her ACTUAL birth time??? I looked at her actual chart with her actual birth time meanwhile you’re over here, on anon with a conspiracy theory about this celebrity.

Lol soooooo stark.

Also, Marina Diamandis’ birth time is an approximate rectification. Just thought I should add that. The rodden rating on her birth time is a C. Not denying she’s a Scorpio rising too, but if that time is off even by 30 minutes, she could be a Sagittarius or Libra rising.

Anyway, I suggest you find something better to do than make conspiracy theories about celebrities on anonymous

#Imagine if Lana saw this.... embarrassing #LMAO #astrology #ask #lana del rey

Nakamoto Yuta Astrology Ask: How he loves

“That“Hello! Can you please do an astology post about hpw yuta from nct 127 loves ? With all the fluffy and nsfw details included ? I loved the ones yo did already and I was wondering if you’re interested in look into his chart? Thank you 😊😊🌸” - @marinemousemarie

A/N Of course I am happy to! Thanks again for your patience !! ALSO THIS HAIR IS KILLING ME ON HIM OML thank you for your request!!!

what is he so perfect for????

Alright !!!!

Yuta’s chart is HEAVILY water influenced

which right off the bat means he is very in touch with his emotions

His SUN AND MOON AND VENUS AND PLUTO are in Scorpio

someone help me I am c o m p r o m i s e d

that is so daddy

so even though he HAS these very deep emotions, he will still come off as mysterious and likely has a wall up

Scorpios exude sex appeal honestly I knew his sun was Scorpio but he makes so much sense with his moon there too

His rising is Capricorn (by estimation)

so he is likely really thoughtful and analytical too, especially when you first meet him and a very, VERY hard worker

he even REALLY fits the physical description of a Scorpio honestly

his north node is Libra so even though he has a lot of Scorpio (typically a less social sign because they tend to be a bit... suspicious)

he probably desperately needs a tight knit group around him he trusts,and leans on them only when he feels he can’t handle it alone

also his trine is at 90 degrees between sun and lilith so he is COMFORTABLE with the darker sides of his personality

he probably revels a little bit in the parts of his nature that stir him

..... i’m going to let you deduce what I feel about that until we get under the cut cause uh

a bitch is shook

so SUN in Scorpio means he is quieter at first, tends to ask more questions instead of revealing his own feelings (which are there and are strong)

puts off a really entrancing seductive mystery that draws people to stare and commands attention on it’s own

MOON in Scorpio means INTENSE

Lunar Scorpios can cut right through anyone’s bullshit

there’s no point in faking emotion around him he is going to know immediately

and have you ever seen such intense side eye from another sign???

They are incredibly all or nothing. if you are in their good graces they respect you and will show it

if you lose that respect it is GONE forever

they are also courageous and tend to be on the cutting edge of fashion and social issues he has a golden heart and a steely gaze oh lort

his mercury is in Libra which is the best place for that sign tbh

the negotiation skills this man would have is uncanny

tbh this makes me feel like he has the silverest of tongues

between Scorpio’s natural affinity for privacy and mystery and Libra’s skill with mediation, he will be effortless at wrapping someone around his finger

has a very solid sense of justice though, so it will only be used for good

desires someone to sharpen his mind on

wants to be able to verbally spar and debate- always done in a friendly way though!

Mars and Jupiter in Sagittarius so he is the kind of person who wants to travel, is governed by a strict moral code all his own

and really just wants to enjoy the experiences of life

these things can impact his desire to settle down however so his focus has to be on a relationship part of his life before he lets that happen.

his VENUS being in Scorpio well.

that’s ah. the exact opposite of his mars and Jupiter tbh

so they balance out a bit, but basically his venus says “when you are ready to settle down you settle down, and you don’t mess around.”

they are loyal and sensual and they need emotional connection that goes both ways

they LOVE commitment and they expect FULL devotion

they wanna pick you apart and know every little thing about you because they want to fill all your cracks with little pieces of themselves so that you are hooked and sticking around

wow

but they aren’t fully forthcoming with their own emotions

with his Mercury being Libra if you can GET him to talk, it’s fine because he will express it well

but you will have to be fantastic at deciphering different emotions in his eyes

there’s actually a lot of Capricorn in his chart, so even though he has a lot of Scorpio ( a very self sufficient sign)

he also probably has a few places where he can be a bit harder on himself and a little self defeating

he probably won’t need MUCH encouragement though, considering the really active fire sign in his Mars

in relationships this boils down to

you meet and he seems very withdrawn

polite but there’s a mystery behind his eyes you can’t quite pin down

no matter how much he likes you, he will not tell you

no he will hint by initiating really subtle flirting

you’ll find him guiding you by two fingers on your low back, a gesture of helpfulness that will linger a few seconds too long

prolonged eye contact from across the room that drives you insane because you can’t figure out what it MEANS

the raise of one brow if you say something that he considers a little flirty back

he wants the push and pull to see if you are really interested

after some playful non verbal flirting he will probably make sure you know he thinks you’re attractive more explicitly

his mars is Sagittarius so he will frame it casually but he would really need you to know

so say you dressed really nicely

he is going to make sure you get a compliment from him

“That fits really nice.”

and you will thank him only to realize he’s smirking and you know it is more than a basic compliment he is low key dirty okay

He’d be the type to have someone else invite you to a group gathering and then monopolize your time

he would ask you a million questions about yourself until he knew you better than you do

and then he would flirt more

as he drank more his compliments would get softer and more kind and less borderline sugestive

and that’s how you know he genuinely likes you

like he’s tipsy and it’s “You’re so sweet and I like being around you.”

“why won’t you ever rub my head like you rub Mark’s?”

“Why do you laugh at all of Johnny’s jokes and not mine?”

“I really just wish you’d love me too.”

and you’re like 👀👀👀👀👀👀

AW YUTA YOU’RE A SECRET SOFT

he will deny it like... one time and then he will cave hard

might lay on you and play with your hands while he talks about what he likes about you

and you’re in shock because he rarely speaks about how HE feels and usually only asks you things

and you realize his feelings are real and you finally just say “If I’m so great why won’t you date me?”

and he will 0.0

because why didn’t sober him think of that ???

he did but also he doesn’t want you to know how MUCH he did you feel me

so he will just be like “okay, then it is what we’re doing now.”

and you expect him to forget but the next day he is at your house with flowers and he wants to do cute shit

domestic shit like changes your name in his phone to a shit ton of cute emojis

listen

will

spam you

with love via text while he is away

just one after another of CHEESY ass heart and flower pictures

and the most adorable good mornings and goodnights and every meal time he texts to be sure you’re eating

is genuinely so sweet and open with you once you are together

loves to lay in your lap and stare up at you

run your hands through his hair while you do what a dream though

back hugs!!

front hugs!!

he wants

HUGS

how precious I

AIGHT STRAP IN CAUSE THIS CHART IS SMH

18 + below the cut let’s get spicy

CAN HE NOT

you don’t understand I am incoherent

GUYS THIS CHART

remember THIS “ his trine is at 90 degrees between sun and lilith so he is COMFORTABLE with the darker sides of his personality “

GUYS

i usually don’t agree when people insist someone IS a specific roll in the bedroom but

Yuta is a whole dom

HE SAID IT FIRST HOW MANY TIMES HE GOTTA SAY IT

Comfortable with his darker sides... comfortable with his kinks

willing to explore and not in the SLIGHTEST concerned about what society thinks

if he likes it he tells you and you guys will decide if it’s something you wanna do

ALL THAT SCORPIO. Sun, Moon, Venus,and pluto all being in scorpio I mean this dude I FUCKIN CAN’T

Scorpio is known for being passionate, sensual and incredibly unrelenting

a bit egotistical about their abilities

not in a bad way, in a “I got this and I will show you that I do” kind of way

which

whew

Yuta stop that’s hot

This is not romantic sex

this is not lovey dovey handholding sex

Yuta FUCKS

He wants you incoherent and lost in pleasure

he wants to dominate you and watch you beg

listen he really loves the power rush that comes with it

maybe choking look don’t kill me he strikes me as a choking type

Libra mercury so his dirty talk is ALWAYS ON POINT AND EXACTLY WHAT YOU LIKE

seems like the type to be a LITTLE into degradation

I’m sorry look I don’t mean anything too serious

just “You’re a slut for me aren’t you? Such a good girl all day but you can’t wait to spread your legs for me?”

that kinda stuff

TEASING

Orgasm control/Denial

TEEEEASING

Toys

holds a vibrator to your clit while you beg him to stop

finger fucks you while he does

Maybe a sir/daddy kink

the type to buy you a “collar” made of diamonds and smirk every time someone who doesn’t know compliments it

public RISKY BEHAVIOR

“Don’t cum and don’t let anyone know and I will reward you at home.”

while he fingers you under the table

thinks it’s funny if you have minor slip ups

fast, accurate strokes that leave you seeing stars

sometimes deep, soul shakingly slow strokes that roll your eyes back into your head

scratch his shoulders he likes that shit

spanking and biting are definitely a yes

aftercare is SO SWEET

cuddles you and shhhhh’s you

strokes up and down your arms with his fingertips

lays your head in his lap and smiles softly at you

asks you what you need to calm down

wraps you in the softest robe or blanket

makes you feel safe and loved

tells you how well you did

a good boyfriend wow

here you go !

thank you for your patience !!

I hope you enjoyed it !!
