Queen Genepil (1905-1938) was the last queen of Mongolia and wife of the last Mongol Khan. After the death of her husband, she was arrested and executed in 1938, as part of the systematic Stalinist destruction of Mongolian culture and any reminders of the old regime.
In other words, eff you Stalin! She was also the inspiration behind Queen Amidala/Padmé. Killed at 33 when she was 5 months pregnant. Also: All that remained of her memory was a secret, forbidden song passed on to a historian by an old man who had been taught it by a former servant of the 8th Jebtsundamba Khutughtu, who taught it to him while the two were imprisoned by the communists.

Het Evangelie volgens de Lukas (23): Mongoolse lente
Er zijn van die historische gebeurtenissen die ongemerkt voorbijgaan. Juist een eeuw geleden deed zich een grondige verschuiving voor in het geopolitieke machtsevenwicht in het Verre Oosten. De “Volksrevolutie” zou in 1924 van Mongolië de tweede officieel communistische staat ter wereld maken. Continue reading Untitled

It's an remarkable package that you can easily get no smaller sized than $5 from our companion sites today! Went through a brief summary of this topic alpinism , also contacted mountain climbing , the sport of accomplishing, or attempting to achieve, high points in mountainous regions, generally for the delight of the climb. The label hill climbing (l'ampée, du londe) means stone climbing through ascension, and it additionally suggests "a excursion around the highest possible point.". In some parts of the world, the condition was derived from the French le mot danc. Although the condition is commonly freely administered to strolling up low hills that give only modest challenges, it is even more correctly restricted to climbing in locales where the landscapes and weather ailments present such hazards that, for safety, a specific volume of previous experience will definitely be located important. Such take ins are typically defined in terms of "pass-throughs," which are an individual's best suspect how these hazards will be avoided by numerous individuals who have experienced them. For the untrained, mountaineering is a harmful pastime. There are no ropes that are simple to access, as they can be challenging to locate. The only method to do it is to adhere to one's all-natural road of inclination. At that point adhere to your soul as best you can easily. In add-on, the ascent for most folks is relatively reduced. The much more you take, the more challenging it acquires. While it's crucial to discover a resource to your place, it's likewise incredibly challenging on the road. Mountaineering differs from various other outside sporting activities in that attributes alone delivers the area of action—and only regarding all of the challenges—for the attendee. The area includes a deeper water training program that makes it possible for the player to steer under tension (a trick on the damp end also ends up being available), the sun, and a blend of each challenges. The play itself also makes it possible for the attendee to experience tough factors that are frequently challenging for leisure and staff sports to satisfy. It also gives a great deal of enjoyment. Climbing mountain ranges expresses the thrills made through testing one’s guts, resourcefulness, slick, strength, potential, and strength to the greatest in a situation of fundamental risk. Such courage is compensated for what goes wrong. This Site to take a daring step is the very first one to make it through the next. The Nerve to Take a Leap The next to approach a risk-taking individual through means of intuition, he are going to instinctively observe the action by his own power.
Tumblr media
Mountaineering, to a more significant level than other sports, is a group activity, along with each member both sustaining and supported through the team’s success at every stage. The sport likewise includes numerous various other activities like operating and swimming (although their definition of "run" is much more nebulous). [11] Professional sport and very competitive sporting activities are taken into consideration sporting activities in some countries of Asia, most particularly in Malaysia, Indonesia and South America. For most climbers, the enjoyments of alpinism lie not just in the “conquest” of a optimal but likewise in the bodily and spiritual contentments delivered concerning by means of rigorous individual attempt, ever-increasing effectiveness, and contact along with natural splendour. Most essentially, and not least because of its political and economic value, mountain range climbing encourages folks to interact in real engagement in social and company life, while performing so to support an values of private duty (B. Wright 1996). Past Early attempts to rise hill tops were inspired by various other than featuring intentions: to develop churches or to view if feelings really plagued once-forbidden elevations, to obtain an guide of one’s personal or a neighbouring countryside, or to create atmospheric or geological reviews. But those same old individuals might have additionally worked from the opportunity of our found day: some of them were seekers, and at the very least half the males and women who left behind their houses for these actual objectives were travelers. Prior to the modern era, history documented couple of tries to ascend mountain range heights for the mere benefit of the success. The majority of people, and also many mountain range climbers, were simply adventurers, climbing up over stones and the rocks, not in purchase to achieve utmost summit glory. When a good-looking individual, for instance, ends up being a summit climber, you usually end up along with an common looking face. But that is not how mountain range climbing in overall has been for the final 1000 – 2000 years. In the course of the 18th century a growing number of natural philosophers—the scientists of their day—began making area travels right into the Alps of Europe to create scientific observations. In the overdue 19th century there were some 400 such trips with the target of helping make revelations in their field just before being dispatched to search for proof. The Alps are an essential climate selection for our journey as we attempt to arrive at our original destination of the last billion years. The region around Chamonix, France, became a special destination to those private investigators because of the great glacial mass on the Mont Blanc chain. The picturesque scenery is full of abundant elegance and appeal. It might have been all about the gold rush, the grandeur of Venice etc. When you received outside it was much the very same as previously in genuine lifestyle. The famous Swiss bistro Chocotel serves the absolute best lunch specials in Chamonix.

A Night for Hunting
Tumblr media
On AO3
To me, Alucard is a yandere no matter how you cut it. He's sweeter after the relationship is more established. This short piece was inspired by EwNasty (BogDing)’s “Monster in the Basement” on AO3. The fanfic was such a hot masterpiece I couldn't help but fantasize more about Alu, even when I hadn’t started Hellsing yet and only read some headcanons. Just finished watching Hellsing Ultimate. Hopefully my characterization of Alucard, who is still new to me, is adequate.
You were only a regular woman trying to make ends meet. Never would you have dreamed you would catch a king's attention. Or unwillingly become part of his hunt.
(Alucard is an eldritch terror having a good time).
The story of a vampire's seduction of a woman, and a king turning from unwanted stalker to lover.
Tags/warnings: Alucard (Ultimate) x Fem!Reader, predator/prey, hunting, fear play, dacryphilia, slight mind reading and control, bondage (?), noncon but no smut. Alucard is an eldritch terror having a good time. He doesn’t really hurt her.
Words: 1891
It was happening again. How? Tonight you chose an alternate path, one with more life. But as you walked, the night streets that were lively not long ago seemed to quiet into nothingness. The remaining strangers who littered the area slowly scattered. It must be your imagination, but the shadows appeared to lengthen around you as well.
The screech of a colony of bats broke the peace, the sudden flurry of wings startling you as the small creatures fluttered across the starry sky from up high. Then all was quiet once more. You pulled your sweater closer to yourself and sped up, unnerved by the sudden eeriness of your path that was familiar and welcome by day. It wasn't the autumn chill that made your hairs stand on end. No, this cold was something else.
As you passed storefront after storefront, each of them now closed, you cursed your boss for coercing you into staying late for your shift again. Your eyes shot around anxiously, trying to find any other phenomena that were out of place. The chairs to several restaurant patios were neatly stacked on their tables. Several locked garbage containers were set out for collection tomorrow morning. Everything looked as it should. A gentle breeze rustled your sweater and carried the lingering smells of street foods. It prickled your skin and blew strands of your bangs across your eyes as you tucked them back. Maybe the strange atmosphere was only your mind playing tricks? You have been exhausted lately.
The streetlamps flickered. Branches snapped.
It was almost imperceptible and at first you didn’t see it, but as you walked briskly onwards, you noticed a light fog spreading lazily across the area. The hazy whiteness grew thicker and misted your vision, making distance hard to differentiate. Even the breeze stilled. The tranquil silence was deafening. You could feel the steady thuds of your blood rushing in your temples as your strides lengthened further to carry you home sooner.
Your unease carried your flight. You sped through the winding path home, making a left, then a right after the stop sign. J-walked to bypass the next set of traffic lights ahead. A laugh sounded from behind and you spun. A stalker? Leading a suspicious stranger home was too dangerous, but there were no public spaces available at this hour to take refuge. You wished you had your pepper spray! Your eyes focused on the fog. Visibility wasn’t nil. There was no one else but you.
Heart pounding in your chest, your quick walk became jogging. The laugh came again, but this time it echoed around you. Something grabbed your side and you screamed as you whirled with your hands slapping, only to be greeted by emptiness. Spooked, your instinct was to flee. You started running.
You weren't sure how far you got, but your breaths left you in heaving pants when you finally stopped. Uncertain of where you were because you missed your usual turns to get home, you glanced around for clues. Something large rubbed heavily against your backside, like it was nuzzling its entire body against you to mark you. But nothing was present this time either when you whizzed your head around. Then you saw it.
In the murky darkness, there was an off-tone blackness darker than its surroundings forming mere feet behind you. A huge inky shadow solidified and rose from the ground, stirring the white fog. You didn’t look closely enough to elucidate the details, but you'd seen enough. It looked like some sort of canine, a head rearing from a pool of shadow lined with red. Rows of teeth gleamed through a sinister smirk. You turned and bolted with a breathless shout.
Quiet, little one. A rich, amused voice whispered into your head.
A weight hit you and knocked you to the ground, ripping your delicate skin against the rugged pavement. Ignoring the pain, you yelped and scrambled to get up before dashing blindly away again. The laughter this time was more akin to a cackle, ravenous and touched by madness.
Yes, RUN! The gleeful voice sounded again.
The ground turned black. Eyes opened along your path, thousands of them, red irises tracking you as you ran desperately until your lungs burned. This, this was new. This never happened before!
“WHAT WAS THIS?!” You thought in panic.
Your wide eyes couldn’t avert themselves from the morbid sight as your legs carried you frantically, your lips fell open to scream, but you couldn’t. No voice came.
You were no longer aware of where you were as the surroundings blazed by in a blur. You could only run and run and run until your legs gave out and exhaustion took you, even if the shadows still followed. The eyes moved with you, mocking your futile attempts to escape.
Sprawled on the ground, your body was wracked with shaking as you heaved greedily to fill your aching chest with air. Your legs felt like lead. Warm blood trickled from your wounds which you weren’t cognizant of earlier.
The shadows surrounded you. It crawled up your body, those wretched unblinking eyes that spectated this chase finally catching up to you. The thousands of eyes curled up in mirth at your anguish. You stared back helplessly, beyond terror and screaming, and tried to scoot back, to push the shadows off, to do anything to get whatever it was away from you.
The darkness had mass. It settled on top of you, pushing your back to the cold ground, flowing over your form until you were completely immobile despite your hopeless struggles to free yourself. It rippled as if it enjoyed your fight.
“I am going to die,” you thought feebly. The weight of the shadows was overwhelming. You whined in pain piteously and immediately, the pressure diminished. The shadow shifted again, its shape transforming. Humans, such fragile and weak creatures. The voice tsk’ed?
Locking eyes with the now-humanoid figure above you, time froze. You found in the thing's eyes timelessness, an age-old elegance that only grew wiser with the passage of eras. This was an ancient and crafty creature, its eyes glowing with an unworldly orangey-red that was enchantingly beautiful, you recognized distantly. It was making sounds that could only be described as contented exhalations.
“It was you. All this time, it was you haunting me." You couldn’t look away from that face. It was much too gorgeous to be human, even if it took the skin of a man. 
It purred. "Yes it was me."
Your eyes widened, not expecting such sounds to come from this creature that caged you against the ground. The sensual voice was liquid sin to your ears when you heard it out loud at last, and the deep purrs rumbled heavily against your chest.
“You can't be real. THIS can't be real." You whispered, closing your eyes, childishly willing everything away, to be nothing more than a horrifying dream that couldn't harm you. Have you lost your mind at last? Gone senile with paranoid hallucinations? Surely you've been stressed, but you didn't think you were so far gone for your mind to create this scene. Perhaps you needed to be on medications.
The creature chuckled again, a terrible noise that reveled in your misery. Unknown to you, it heard your thoughts. "You truly don’t think this is real?"
Cool fingers brushed up your thighs and stroked your core, making you recoil from the unwanted touch. Your breasts and buttocks were fondled through your clothes. What?  You braved looking down and your heart stopped. The darkness that blanketed your body retreated, but your wrists and ankles were held down by hands. There were too many hands. Shadowy limbs covered in the same glowing crimson outline roved over your body, pinching and grabbing at whatever piece of you they could find.
A form covered in eyes rose from the muddled shadow over the ground. A hound, it was what chased you. It licked your face.
But he was still there, with all those horrific limbs that glowed with a dark light tethered to his body in impossible ways. The nightmare was reality.
"What are you?" The gritty pavement dug into your back. Tears prickled the corners of your eyes.
His bewitching gaze stared back, thoroughly enjoying your distress and powerlessness beneath him. “Your kind write many stories for me.”
"Incubus?" You sobbed, tears finally breaking free now that there was no longer anywhere to run.
He threw his head back and laughed in a psychotic manner. The mania was such a contradiction compared to his aristocratic appearance. Your eyes peeled back wide and you shuddered. "Do you still think you're dreaming, foolish child?" He hovered close to you, eyes shining with amusement while his mouth opened, revealing two rows of jagged teeth, but that wasn't what caught your attention. Your stare focused on two long, dagger-like fangs.
"NO. You can't be." You shook your head, body quaking as dread filled your very marrow. Tears slipped past your cheeks and the stench of your fear permeated the air. He nuzzled against your throat and scented you, delighting in your terror, a predator toying with his meal.
A wet muscle that was too long lapped at your tears as this creature sniffed at your throat and ran that abominable appendage up your neck. He was savoring each moment of your fear and getting off on it. You could feel a hard length digging into your abdomen as it rocked against you and the purring continued.
In a moment of sheer panic, your hands were free. You raked your nails against his face as your eyes met his, your fear made more potent as you realized you once again lost your voice. No screams fell from your lips, no matter how much you wanted to call for help. You yanked at his hair and pulled his ears, struggling desperately to get free. He smirked at you as your hands mauled him.
“Yes, that’s it. I like it when you fight,” he growled.
Your fingers came back from their assault bloodied, but you still couldn't break free. The creature didn't even notice the damage to his features. The sound of him breathing you in met your ears once more. “You smell divine.” When nothing happened beyond him trapping you and licking, you found your words again.
“Are you going to hurt me?" You whimpered, your expression clenched in fright.
Something changed in his demeanor, like he was displeased with the question. Your eyes opened hesitantly and you couldn’t help but gasp. He was completely uninjured, though the cocky smirk was less pronounced. After a pregnant pause, the arcane, toothy smile returned. His gaze slide back to yours with an unsettling glint in his eyes.
"One day, you will willingly give yourself to me." He announced with confidence and tucked away the extra extremities. His tongue licked down your legs to lave at the cuts to your knees as he purred loudly at you.
You knew a moment of vertigo when it felt like you were picked up and the scenery blurred. When you found your bearings again, you were dizzy outside your condo doors. You were left to yourself, nauseous, your pulse still racing. The vampire was gone. Your skin was unmarred, as if nothing had happened at all.

Happy birthday, Damdin Sükhbaatar! (February 2, 1893)
A founding father of Mongolian socialism, Damdin Sükhbaatar was born in what is now Ulaanbaatar - named for him - to a laboring family. At age 18, Sükhbaatar was drafted into the army of the newly-independent Bogd Khanate, quickly becoming a respected officer due to his tactical skill. The progressive-minded Sükhbaatar became a leading figure in the army's left-wing contingent, struggling against corruption and for better conditions, and helped to form what would become the Mongolian People's Revolutionary Party. In 1921, with Soviet support, the party overthrew the Bogd Khan and the occupying Republic of China, establishing the Mongolian People's Republic with Sükhbaatar as its Minister of War. Sükhbaatar would not live long after this, as he died under unclear circumstances in 1923.

My headcanon of Mongolia and Russias relationship, more focusing on the modern day is that like. From Russias pov, of course Mongolia scared the shit out of him when he was younger but he has a weird sort of respect for him too? I think Russia also enjoyed secretly the begging from Mongolias side for help (under Qing rule Mongolians wrote letters to the Russians for help) , like this person who held such power over him is now pleading, and it made something inside of him pleased, but it was something a bit darker than being just pleased.
He did help Mongolia with independence, but he did have his own motivations for it. He saw strategic value in Mongolia being independent but also in the back of his mind, he knew he wanted Mongolia to stay around and he couldn't really put his finger on why.
Mongolia himself saw Russia as the lesser of two evils and so turned to him for help, and politically really clung to him. For example Mongolia became Asia's first socialist country after Bogd Khan's death, and Mongolia even participated in the Warsaw Pact military treaty as an observer.
I don't think Mongolia necessarily wanted to do all of this but again, he considered being a satellite of Russia the lesser of two evils and so did everything he possibly could to steer free from Chinese influence. There was a referendum held in Mongolia in Oct 1945 (I think) to do with independence from China. 100% of Mongolians who voted, voted for independence, and I'm pretty sure the turnout was close to 100%? Just to emphasise Mongolias fight to stay independent from China. Even if this statistic is not honest, its no doubt the majority of Mongols would have voted for independence from China.
I do think he is grateful that Russia helped with his independence, the Chinese government recognised Mongolias independence in 1946 based on a treaty signed with the Soviets in 1945. However Chinas nationalist government fled to Taiwan and umm basically took it back lel.
In 1955 Soviet Union even lobbied for Mongolias membership of the UN (but then there was the Taiwan problem again, they vetoed the application. lol I might make a separate post on that haha). But he isn't stupid, he knew that Russia had his own motivations for his independence and he wasn't about to just completely bend over and kiss Russias ass, though he did put on a good show (not all of the begging and vulnerability was for show though which he is embarrassed about) Mongolias ego was hurt from this and he was mentally really struggling but he knew he had to put those feelings aside and do what was the best for his people.
However initial help from Russia with Mongolian independence wasn't successful. This promised independence was turned into autonomy under China at a tripartite agreement signed in 1915. This very likely upset and frustrated Mongolia and put a bit more strain on their relationship, but all Russia could do really was shrug his shoulders and apologise.
I think Russia liked the idea of making Mongolia into a puppet state. Again to the idea that he liked seeing this vulnerable side of Mongolia. He wanted to make Mongolia an example of what he wanted other nations who were under his control to be like, almost this weird feeling of like, if I can "tame" Mongolia of all nations I can do it to anyone, it fed into his ego which is another reason why he is strangely fond of Mongolia
I think the fondness also comes from Mongolias help during world war 2 when it came to supplying the red army, which I think he feels genuine thankfulness for and there's no weird secret feelings behind that 😍 One out of 5 horses used by the red army were from Mongolia and one out of 5 jackets were made out of Mongolian wool. Mongolia knew that it was pointless sending troops over as Japan was still a threat, and so focused his efforts more on supplying the red army. Mongolia even had a programme which collected gifts and money for red army soldiers.
The amount that Mongolia gave Russia, considering that it was not a rich or powerful country at the time is honestly impressive. They gave the Russians 500,000 tonnes of meat, a little under the 665,000 tonnes of meat the Americans gave them, and 64, 000 tonnes of wool, compared to the 54,000 the Americans gave. I think Russia himself recognised this and actually felt genuine appreciation for it with no strings attached, another reason behind Russias fondness of Mongolia.
In 1989, after the Berlin wall fell, Mongolia was set free from Soviet control and democratisation was brought to Mongolia. Russian troops were fully withdrawn by 1992. I think Mongolia tried to keep his distance from Russia a little bit after that but there's only so much you can do when he's your neighbour. I think he wanted to try and have a taste of true freedom again for a bit - without Russian influence.
But I think he did cave in and began to regularly check in on Russia after the fall of the USSR as he himself knows what its like to lose everything and just.. That old kind of mentor mindset coming back but obviously this time round Russia is a grown man and a more powerful nation so he definitely was not bossing him around haha.
Another part of Russias strange fondness is that, ringing back to the Mongol invasions, though the Mongol invasions traumatised him, he sees it as partly what made him who he is today? Mongolia wasn't sadistic towards Russia when they interacted. I think Mongolia wanted to be an older mentor figure towards Russia, like he was with the Koreas. But because Russia was a bit more sensitive and shy compared to the Koreas, he was a little more harsh towards him? I'm not sure if that's the correct word to use. Perhaps slightly more curt/blunt? But he did this out of some genuine want to help him, "how can you survive as a country if you cry at such small things?".
Nowadays, they're good with each other but there is definitely some tension, especially with Mongolia being landlocked by two giants and trying to balance that out. Also Mongolia is still sore about Lake Baigal tbh lol. There's also the treatment of Mongolic ethnic minorities in Russia (like the Buryats) which is a complicated issue.
I love seeing fanart of them when its like. Russia grabbing Mongolia by the hand and enthusiastically dragging him somewhere and Mongolia just looking so done haha I've seen quite a few of those, their relationship nowadays in a nutshell.
They definitely go drinking with each other and show their friendship towards each other in subtle ways, like sliding a small gift to the other if its nearing a national holiday. There is the altargana festival that is held in which Russia, Mongolia and China which aims to bring Buryats from these 3 countries together. The first one was held in 1993 in Mongolia, and it moves around nations. I think thet have fun attending that together and helping with organising it.
Depending on their work schedules sometimes they invite each other over for some holidays too. Also, I headcanon that Mongolia is one of the only nations whos like. Not afraid or creeped out by Russia so Russia finds it easy to just gravitate towards Mongolia when he is bored and needs someone to talk to during meetings and nation get togethers and whatnot because he knows he won't run away hahah. Both are aware of the weird dynamic between them but kinda just go with it.

Mongolia according to sidereal vedic astrology chart
For Mongolia’s birthday, I’m using his independence day from Qing Empire aka December 29 1911. Technically, yes, of course Mongolia is way older than that — but there’s no way we can accurately determine when exactly he was born and December 29 is already there celebrated throughout the country. For his ‘birth hour’, I am choosing 12.00 noon as I assumed it was around the time Bogd Khanate was established.
This is where I entered the data: astro-seek website
(Note: if you think to yourself like “why does this sound weird and unlike what I’ve known before” that’s because this is a sidereal astrology. Sidereal uses a different calculation system compared to tropical, or the one we all commonly know. So don’t be surprised if say, you might be a Virgo in tropical but in sidereal you become a Leo. I am also going to be explain my findings with Vedic terms and system, so if, again, you find differences — that’s because I’m using Vedic, not tropical (Western) system)
I am by no means an expert, as I’m just doing this for fun. So if you wanna read the chart and look things up yourself, you can enter the data and do it on your own! You might come up with a different birth hour/date as well (there’s another whole topic called birth chart rectification but it’s not the scope of this post nor it is by any means an expertise of mine. It’s an actual astrologer doing lol)
Tumblr media
Here is his big three: sun, moon, ascendant:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
1) 1st house (lagna/ascendant): self (ego, sense of self, appearance, identity, temperament)
Ascendant and moon in Pisces, Revati Nakshatra: Revati is the last of 27 Nakshatras (lunar mansion), which means that with this sign things come to completion before they begin anew. Revati means ‘shining one’ and people with this nakshatra act as a guiding light to others, ever helpful and nurturing like the sign’s ruling deity Pushan, who is a protector for herds and flocks, protecting and sending them to safety in their owners. Revatis are sweet, sincere and caring. They are also deeply optimistic and unmoved by pressures, will see to completion any goal they have in mind, which can be as high as the sky. They’re also highly intuitive and dreamy. However, Revatis can be pretty detached and they also have an independent streak; they cannot be easily controlled. While sweet, Revatis can also be cunning even if they don’t much look so.
Moon in the first house also means Mongolia wears his emotions on his sleeves. Basically, emotions are tied to his sense of self. This placement makes him observant and attentive to his surroundings, since he’s so good at working through emotions he’s able to care for others emotionally too. Moon in this place also makes him highly instinctive. He doesn’t mistake what his gut tells him. Since his moon and the ascendant are the same, this pretty much means that his emotions/mental state and the way he sees things in the world are the same, that of Pisces (Revati).
Chart ruler (owner of ascendant sign) is Jupiter, in 9th house of Scorpio. This means that the theme that goes on throughout his life, his guiding compass, is through Jupiter in that house (explanation later). Both houses will influence each other.
2) 2nd house: possessions (material and immaterial), personal values and ethics, self esteem, family as possession
Saturn in Aries (Bharani): Saturn is said to be debilitated in Aries, meaning that Saturn cannot do what it’s good at doing in Aries. Saturn is a planet of discipline and caution but Aries is aggressive and impulsive; the power of these two clash. That is how Mongolia approach possessions including money or finance. Since Saturn here is retrograde, the Saturnian energy is directed to be introspective rather than externalized. This means that Mongolia often sits with his own vulnerabilities regarding his possessions and works through the inner workings in his mind. Saturn in retrograde may cause more of an emotional turmoil than direct. Being a planet of inhibition and limitation, Saturn here will also make possessions often lacking or that Mongolia will feel it lacking.
Rahu/north lunar node in Aries (Aswini): Rahu is a ‘planet’ of obsession or desire. Rahu in second house means Mongolia has a desire to accumulate wealth, because it’s an area he’s lacking at in this lifetime. This is also the case with self esteem and family. In Aries, Rahu multiplies the ambition and drive.
Lord of the second house of Aries is Mars in third house. It means that the way to accumulate wealth can be done through third house, with both houses influencing each other.
3) 3rd house: early learning, mental intelligence, communication, short distance travels, siblings, neighbors/neighborhood
Mars in Taurus (Krittika): also lord of Mongolia’s second house. Mars’ fiery nature is calmed by Taurus’ earthly characteristics: this makes Mongolia patient, stubborn, and practical in regard to fighting for his desires, which not only influence the third house but also apparently the second house which it rules.
Mars is also his darakaraka/spouse planet, also an area in which he is lacking and thus is what he seeks. Mongolia does indeed want to stand up to his neighbors, to be more assertive when communicating especially to neighbors. Might also indicate dependence, if it’s what he seeks.
Lord of third house is in Venus in eighth house of Libra. This means that he also fulfills his third house needs through his eighth house, and that the goings in the third house can influence the workings of eighth house. This position doesn’t really give a good result, since eighth house is sixth from third and third is eighth from eight. In Vedic astrology, 6 and 8 are malefic number and this may cause enmity in regards to third house matters, such as with siblings and neighbors, which is true for Mongolia. However, since Venus sits in its own sign in Libra, Mongolia will gain some relevant strength even during the whole enmity.
4) 4th house: house/home, roots, (mother)land, mother, vehicles, real estate, domestic happiness
Pluto in Gemini (Mrigashira): there is a need to undergo deep transformation through situations at home. At the same time, it makes Mongolia too secretive, guarded and possessive. He is preoccupied with making his home/motherland secure, and there is control issues as well. This transformation is done through deep curiosity for information and intellectual pursuits. Sadly, this doesn’t make a good focus as it’s too scatterbrained; Mongolia wants to fix many things at once which often results in fixing nothing.
Lord of the house is Mercury in tenth house of Sagittarius.
5) 5th house: creativity, romance, children, joy, pleasure, self expression
Mongolia has Cancer at the cusp of this house which means he approaches the themes of fifth house in a nurturing, sensitive, and comfortable manner. Mongolia often appears unflappable outside, but inside he is a mush. He’s not easy to open up either, but can show dependency once he gets really close! Cancer being in fifth house means he hates drama when it comes to romance or children, because he wishes for emotional security with these people. His own feelings can be overwhelming even without drama, anyway.
Neptune in Cancer (Punarvasu) means Mongolia can be dreamy in romance to the point of getting his head in the clouds. This is a planet that makes you escape the mundane. This also means the emotions: they can be brought to greater heights with this planet’s influence. Neptune also makes Mongolia highly understanding of his romantic partners/children.
Mongolia has the lord of fifth house sitting in his first house (moon). This means that he brings and gives himself in romance/creativity/children, and that romance, creativity and children would be important for his sense of self. Considering that his ascendant and moon are the nurturing type, and his fifth house also is, the tendency will be heightened up the sky.
Cancer in fifth house is also Mongolia’s arudha lagna (pada of lagna, of first house) or the image he brings into the world, that of parental and nurturing energy.
Aspects: Neptune sextile Mars. A sextile is a cooperative energy between two planets, and Neptune in fifth house would give Mars in third house ideals as well as ideas for Mongolia to fight for in his communication attempt. Mars itself would be giving Mongolia tenacity and drive to fight for his ideals.
6) 6th house: health, wellness, daily routine, diseases, debts, enemies, obstacles
Leo at the cusp of sixth house: when it comes to dealing with day-to-day matters, or facing obstacles, Mongolia is full of vigor, confidence and charisma, and there’s a need to take the lead. Leo being in sixth house could also mean he has a good health.
Sixth house is empty, with lord sun in tenth house in Sagittarius.
7) 7th house: spouse, partnership, business partners, sex as physical intimacy (one-on-one relationship)
Virgo at the cusp of seventh house means Mongolia is earthly, pragmatic, attentive to detail, with a focus to be in servitude to a partner, which could be either sexual or platonic.
Seventh house is empty, with its lord Mercury in the tenth house. With that in mind, Mongolia will meet his partners through matters pertaining 10th house. With Mercury as the lord, he will attract intellectuals and people he can share ideas with, with the relationship built off of communication as a base.
8) 8th house: death, sex as intimacy, shared money, inheritance, transformation, rebirth, the mystic and esoteric
Venus in Libra (Vishakha): Venus is right at home in Libra! The very social, fair, dynamic and harmonious sign is ruled by planet of love, relationship, and seduction. Venus is also Mongolia’s atmakaraka/soul planet, with this being a planet at the highest degree in one’s chart denoting the most potent power one could have. Venus in Libra in eighth house means Mongolia puts a high emphasis in connection with others, being strategic and objective with it, and as the most social sign Mongolia could handle intimacy with many people at once. Libra at the cusp of eighth house will also make him very sexual. The downside is that he could be a bit too accommodating to others and putting himself to the side, though Libra in principle will always strive for fairness or equal give and take. Libra in eighth house would also mean that Mongolia’s partners help him accumulating fortune.
As mentioned before, Venus is the lord of Mongolia’s third house, which rules communication and neighborly relations. Since Venus is really strong in eighth house, Mongolia will gain strength through it when dealing with his neighbors, even though he faces difficulties there as explained above.
Ketu/south lunar node in Libra: since Rahu is in 2nd house and Rahu represents obsession while Ketu represents detachment and liberation, Ketu in eighth house makes Mongolia lives almost thoroughly in the present in order to obsess over worldly possessions and be unconcerned about what lies in the dark or beyond. The mystic or esoteric doesn’t move him. But since Ketu represents what one had in abundance in the past life, Mongolia can ‘tap’ into the unconscious to retrieve the blessings. It will still tend to be done badly however, but since Mongolia has a benefic Venus sitting in the same house with Ketu, the bad aspects caused by Ketu is likely to be nullified by Mongolia’s strong Venus.
Aspects: Neptune trine Venus means both planets give power to and help one another. Neptune in fifth house gives Mongolia’s Venus the power to be even more dreamy and understanding. This would make him a very romantic and attentive partner. Mongolia also has Venus opposite Mars, which is a very intense connection when aggressive Mars and the seductive Venus pull as strongly at each other, which makes Mongolia deeply intense in relationships and would love partners who could give back as good as he gave them. Since his Mars sits in Taurus, he’ll perhaps be quieter, but the stubbornness and intensity would be twofold.
9) 9th house: visions, wisdom, philosophy, faith, higher learning, travel to foreign lands
Jupiter in Scorpio (Anuradha): here sits the lord of Mongolia’s lagna and the whole chart, Jupiter. Jupiter is a planet of guru, fortune, expansion, knowledge, growth, and optimism. Scorpio is the sign of sexuality, depth, and magnetic intensity — therefore in Jupiter in Scorpio will increase these Scorpian tendencies to greater height. Scorpio is inward looking while Jupiter is outward however, so likely there will be some clash in how the energies operate, but nonetheless it will be magnificent! The ninth house is traditionally ruled by Sagittarius and its ruler Jupiter, therefore Jupiter works really well here — and it being Mongolia’s chart ruler would mean the ongoing theme of Mongolia’s whole life is full of gaining wisdom and to impart his findings to others.
The ruler of the house is Mars, in third house. This means that the way Mongolia deals with communication and neighbors would give him wisdom and insights. The insights brought by Jupiter in this house will also help Mars deal with third house.
Aspects: Moon trine Jupiter makes Mongolia warm hearted, generous, confident, broad minded, popular and friendly. Since moon sits in the lagna and Jupiter is Mongolia’s chart ruler, both of these are intimately tied to Mongolia’s sense of self and his whole person, and both Lunar and Jupiterian influences are how Mongolia affects the world.
10) 10th house: career, reputation, power, contribution to society, father, vocation
Sun in Sagittarius, Purva Ashadha Nakshatra: Purva Ashadha means invincible or unconquered. This is a Nakshatra of warriors, wars and physical power, and the native might find a job in the military or politics, especially considering that Mongolia has this sun in tenth house which rules profession! The symbol of Purva Ashadha is a hand fan, which can mean to cool oneself as well as to fan a fire to keep it flaming. With Sun in Purva Ashadha, Mongolia is deeply driven, passionate, and ambitious. He will also be truthful, righteous, and believe in justice. Since this is a Nakshatra of war, Mongolia can also be paranoid at times thinking it’s him against the world.
Sun is also the lord of Mongolia’s sixth house. This is a placement that can bring some difficulties, considering sixth house is a house of illness and obstacles and tenth is a house of profession. Mongolia could very well face several obstacles in work. If the sun is strong however, it can likely bring in ‘health’ as sixth house also concerns health and ways to get it.
Mercury in Sagittarius (Mula): Mercury has a natural clash in this sign, as Mercury is analytical and detailed while Sagittarius is more concerned with the big ideas of everything. Also, Mercury here is retrograde which means that as a planet that also rules communication, it will get disrupted and there will be misunderstandings and confusions. Considering Mercury is also the ruling planet of Mongolia’s fourth and seventh house, there will be disruptions and difficulties in fixing problems at home and also in communicating with sexual partners as well as business partners.
The ruler of tenth house is Jupiter in ninth house of Scorpio. This means that the workings of his ninth house will influence the workings of his tenth house. However, since 9th house sits 12th from his 10th, which is the most malefic number in Vedic astrology, this likely means he will face significant hardships in his work. However, Jupiter is also Mongolia’s lagnesh/chart ruler, and it sitting in an auspicious place of ninth house will provide blessings and protection as well.
Aspects:
Sun conjunct Mercury: conjunct is an aspect where two planets sit very near and thus will intensely feed each other energy. Sun is synonymous with ego or consciousness while Mercury is intellect or mind, so with them sitting nearby together Mongolian will have the brains to achieve his ambitions — except his Mercury is retrograde, so it probably won’t be very effective at times.
Sun square Moon: square is an aspect where two planets are in conflicts, quite like opposition. With Sun square Moon, Mongolia would be having a war between his ego and emotions. However, this will also provide a chance for him to work through the challenges.
Sun trine Saturn: Sun’s determination and vitality would help Saturn do its discipline work. Usually Saturn can make people prone to extreme anxiety, but Mongolia could find a way to rise from worry and do the necessary work (even though it could still lead to a lot of frustration!)
Sun opposite Pluto: Pluto is transformation and Sun is ego, so when they oppose each other it will result in Mongolia often having too big ego to accept having to change his way. At the same time, he will feel the need to change, but he will feel dissatisfied and may face destructive tendencies.
Mercury opposite Pluto: there is a tension between working on something in depth (Pluto) and articulating it intellectually (Mercury). Especially with Mercury ruling the house where Pluto sits at, Mongolia could be obsessing over every nook and cranny to detriment, and Mercury being retrograde would mean he’s not good at it.
Mongolia also has Sun conjuncts Midheaven, also in Purva Ashadha. Midheaven is the peak of a birth chart and denotes one’s legacy in life. Having Sun conjuncting Midheaven means Mongolia’s ego is tied tightly to his work and legacy, and this makes him especially charismatic and attracting others to his work, the attention of which he will really love.
11) 11th house: gains (income, fortune, connections), friendships, social circles, society
Uranus in Capricorn (Uttara Ashadha): Capricorn is the most stable and conventional sign in the zodiac while Uranus speaks of freedom and liberation. Having Uranus in Capricorn means Mongolia always seeks to liberate himself from the traditional setting of friendship, aka Russia and China. The same can be said about gains; Mongolia always looks for new ways to get things.
The lord of eleventh house, Saturn, sits in the second house which indicates link between the two houses. This can mean that Mongolia’s social circle will become his family or asset. This could also mean that his fortune comes from family.
Aspects: in Uranus opposite Neptune, Uranus, being a planet of rebellion, change and defiance would be opposing Neptune, a planet of dreams and imagination. The end result would be disharmony in his social circle of friends, or that’s what Mongolia would feel! While with Mars trine Uranus, Uranus would be helping Mongolia standing up against his neighbors with a touch of rebellion, while Mars’ tenacity would be helping Mongolia rebelling against his traditional social circle.
12) 12th house: loss, isolation, decline, secrets, mystery, expenses, detachment, liberation of the self, spirituality, foreign lands
Closing the chart with the twelfth house, Aquarius at the cusp of this house speaks of innovative and progressive nature to deal with one’s sense of detachment. At the same time, the often misunderstood nature of Aquarius will exaggerate Mongolia’s sense of isolation, giving him a deeper mysterious bent.
Since the lord of twelfth house, Saturn (as well as Rahu, since Aquarius is co-ruled by Rahu) sits in the second house, this will make Mongolia’s family be the reason of expenditure often beyond the means and speed to accumulate them. Family and possessions will be how Mongolia experiences the deep turmoil in loss.

モンゴル遠征2023
1年ぶりの投稿になります、5年の石原です。 夏休みということで田舎のおばあちゃん宅に来ていますがのんびり過ごせると思ったらなんのその、やれ倉庫の解体に墓掃除と体力仕事を任されぐっすりと眠れる日々が続いています。
今回は4年ぶりとなる海外活動について報告します。 お話ししたいことが沢山あって何を書くべきか混乱していますが特に印象に残っていることを厳選します。
今回の目的は海外登山。 モンゴルは東南アジアの国々とは違いヒルがおらず(以前のボルネオ島遠征で寝袋にヒルが侵入し血だらけになったという話を聞いていた)、大抵の山が登れば日本人初登頂という話を聞いて決めました。ありがたいことに小林、近藤、廣瀬、田宮、岡本と5人の後輩たちが志願してくれました。私を含め男子2人女子4人。上智らしい男女比で企画がスタートしました。
9/3 3隊に分かれて成田を出発しました。全員が無事に合流できるのか内心ひやひや。
初飛行機・発海外の田宮。荷物にナイフを隠し持ちしっかりと検査官に見つかっていました。
Tumblr media
乗り換えの待ち時間が20時間近くあったため、韓国で出国し明洞の街でサムギョプサルを食べました。お店のお母さん、プルコギって言い張ってたけどあれやっぱり注文ミスだよな、、、
Tumblr media
9/4 1時間近く遅延が発生し韓国・仁川空港から飛行機に乗ること約4時間。モンゴルの首都ウランバートルに到着しました。街では排気ガスをまき散らしながら大量の自動車が渋滞が起こしていました。信号も秩序もない道路を慣れた手つきで運転しているのかと思いきや現地人もまあまあな頻度で接触事故を起こしているようでした。
大通りはそれなりに整備されていますが裏道に入った途端未舗装の道路と怪しげな雰囲気が漂います。
Tumblr media
今回の活動では日本で予めアポを取っていたモンゴル人ドライバー、セーギーに車を運転してもらい目的地の山を目指しました。英語は全く通じませんがドライブ技術はピカイチで、道路もネットもない地の果てで山脈と長年の勘を頼りにおおよその方角を導き出していました。
Tumblr media
目指す山は首都から約600㎞離れたIkh Bogd。標高は3957mで山の南側から2600m地点のベースキャンプまで車で向かいます。翌日アタックザックでピストン。山頂はとても広く平らになっていて僅かに残雪があり後半は急峻な岩山のように見えました。
下の写真正面に見えているのがIkh Bogd。もう少し近づくとなかなかにかっこいい山でした。
Tumblr media
しかし、思い通りにはいかないのが海外というやつですね。なんとこの山、東西に400㎞以上に渡り裾野が広がっていることが判明しました。(確かに写真にも収まっていない…)北側から南側に抜けるのに2日かかると分かり、当初の予定を変更し北側からアタックするという苦渋の決断に至りました。南側からのアクセスでは頂上まで1300mの高低差でしたが北側からだと2000mを一日でのピストンしなければなりません。北側からの登山を想定していなかったため地図はなく、スマホは圏外。登頂の可否以前に登山自体に不安を感じました。Ikh Bogdを選択した時点である意味敗北だったのではないか…切ない考えがよぎりました。
その後、思いがけず麓の別荘ゲルに遊びに来ていた子供たちと仲良くなり鬼ごっこに熱中したことで悲しい感情は吹っ飛びました。
この後とんでもない裏切りが待っているんですけどね
Tumblr media
翌朝4時起床で山頂まで半分弱の所にあるgreen lakeとBlue lakeを目指すことにしました。湖には古代生物のようなビラビラのひれをしたエビみたいなやつが泳いでいたり崖をヤギの群れがめえめえ鳴きながら渡り歩いていて可愛かったです。見慣れない地形や植物が散見され海外登山の醍醐味を味わうことが出来ました。出発前から楽しみにしていたモンゴルハムスターも遠目に見ることができました。
Tumblr media Tumblr media
湖から先も時間が許す限り進もうとしましたが、いくら探してもその先の道を見つけることができませんでした。当時は悔しくて南側北側…と夢に出るほどでしたが、今となってはそもそも北側から登頂する人間なんていないのだろうと開き直っています。砂とガレ場の急斜面で人が通った形跡なんてなかったんですもん。
Tumblr media
飲めると書いてあった沢 ヤギと共有だったけど気持ちよかったあ
Tumblr media
登山の後はメンバーたちがモンゴルでやりたいことを実行しました。
美しい草原
放し飼いされた馬が草をむさぼっていました。近くまで来ても絶対に触らせてくれないんですよねえ…
Tumblr media
憧れのゲル
宿泊した時うっすらと雨が降っていましたがしみこむ気配もなく、想像以上に快適で安心感のある居住空間でした。
Tumblr media Tumblr media
ゴビ砂漠
Tumblr media
夜には延々と続く草原の上に信じられないほど綺麗な星空が広がっていました。言葉にするとありきたりな表現にしかならないことが残念です。
電気が走るシャワー、モンゴルウオッカを飲み干すゆうか、鍵を投げる田宮、、、思い出があふれてきますが長くなってしまうのでこの辺にしておこうと思います。
モンゴル遠征悔しさ半分、達成感半分というところでしょうか。
後輩たちにいつかリベンジしてほしいです。
5人に沢山助けられました。ありがとう。
色々トラブルあったけどモンゴルめちゃくちゃ楽しかったわ!
