I’m not talking about vedic astrology here per se, I’m simply making a case for the use of the sidereal zodiac in western astrology.

I’m glad to be included in gender, and it’s an honor to trans your gender, but gender is astrology to me. “Girl sun boy moon.” You don’t agree, but now you get me better. Send post

#super super fun and everyone likes to look themselves up #but we made it all up yeah? #it’s like holidays yeah? #and then you learn more about (being very serious here) #there are living cultural practices that take astrology very seriously #and set up aspects of real world material oppression around your birth chart #(I was educated by a good friend on how astrology is handled in other cultures than my own) #which is also like gender: all in good fun until you realize people are taking it so seriously #that little kids are growing up in unconscionable circumstances #because their parents have decided who they are based on various external quirks like stars and colors #rather than the kid showing who they are through their heart. #so it’s all in good fun except when it isn’t. #but once again going back to the all in good fun part #it really is so sensible to say girl sun boy moon. #you can feel this #you get me!!! #it explains so much

eddie brings you to the fortune teller at the county fair even if you think it's a grift. "it's just cold reading, eddie, there's no way some kook with a bunch of picture cards can predict the future." now, he believes in it too much to EVER think that, but he'd never admit it. he's like "c'mon baby it'll be FUNNY" when in reality he's standing outside the fortune teller's tent shitting himself as you get your cards read because if he's not in your future or vice versa he'll fucking alter fabric of reality and punch fate in the dick. you're welcome

Yeah, I like Astronomy 😊🤭🤭✨

Hits you with a meteorite

#someone said I looked like an astrology person and I’ve never been insulted worse #astronomy >>> astrology #I wanna learn about STARS!! #Not how compatible I am in a relationship with someone born in August #if I see one ‘’must be a Gemini’’ comment I will riot

Doctober 2023 prompt #22: Constellation

[If it's not obvious enough, this black and white picture is the twin pines Doc and Marty...]

So... yeah, this one's a glimpse of an idea I have of writing a really wholesome fic where Marty and George go plant another pine tree to replace the one he ran over at Peabody's farm, so that's why they're there. It gets really late so they just sit and gaze at the stars.

TLDR: Marty teaches George about constellations cuz he learned it from Doc

#I was also really excited about this prompt because i have close friends who are really into astronomy #(not astrology oh god dont even utter than near them) #but they love to talk about it and i love to listen #i learn a few things from them #its crazy that i know more than one astronomy nerd #and they dont even know each other #anyway i share the knowledge with my mom and it blows her mind #so #its me #im marty here #back to the future #bttf #doctober 2023 #marty mcfly #george mcfly #doc brown #personal fave #my art

Ik this might sound like an almost obvious question but what dose namjoon hope for in a relationship like what dose he look forward to (what aspect of a relationship dose he look forward to)?

Moon in 1st house: leaps headfirst into love and often makes hasty decisions.

Scorpio Pluto 12th House: man is INTENSE in love. He wants to know everything about you and can come on strong. So strong that it can actually push his lovers away.

Venus conjunct Jupiter: like we didn’t already know…. The man enjoys sex often

Venus trine saturn: loves courting the old fashioned way.

Libra mercury 10th house: a partner that continually stimulates Namjoon emotionally, physically, and spiritually is a REQUIREMENT. He is adamant about his growth and demands that his partner do the same.

Mercury Square Mars: absolute honesty. If something is unclear, he is gonna annoyingly dig until he gets to the bottom of it and understands.

Saturn in 3rd house: he is very gullible and easily deceived. He has been burned too many times in the past. It is very important that him and his partner both say exactly what they mean.

Moon square Saturn: he is a natural cynic so having someone who can regulate his emotions and help him find the positive in things is good for him

#he has like 5 placements talking about how much he values honesty in a relationship #it was written in his life path for him to get betrayed a lot in this lifetime for him to learn these lessons and find his soul tribe #I didn’t put all the truth aspects in bc repetitive #bts #namjoon #namjoon love life #bts astrology #ask

ok but starry siblings modern day AU where moonlight and stardust were separated at birth and meet for the first time in their adulthood and due to circumstances stardust has to crash at moonlight’s place for a while and the entire thing is just a slice of life sitcom where the two start to know each other + bond over astrology n stuff and also space donut is stardust’s cat who is literally just named donut

#moonlight's into the psychology of dreams and stardust's into learning about stars' life cycles #and they're both massive astrology nerds #and stardust helps moonlight out with her long-distance relationship with her gf #and space donut is a cat #i'm having way too much fun thinking about this #crk #cookie run #cookie run kingdom #moonlight cookie #crk moonlight cookie #stardust cookie #crk stardust cookie

Also if you have questions or guesses about characters’ Zodiac signs I’m all ears.

Like how Ace from the werewolf pack is an Aries sun, but has a lot of Scorpio influences in his chart.

Consider this your opportunity to be an Astrology Bitch and go off about Leo Stede!

(signed, a Virgo sun, Cancer moon, Capricorn rising who simultaneously is and is not an Astrology Bitch, more of a Tarot Bitch tbh)

Okay! You asked for it lol.

I should start by saying that I'm an August Leo sun. Stede is a July Leo, as confirmed by the show:

July Leos are...different somehow? It's not a bad thing and it's not their fault, and if anybody else comes for them we August Leo's will throw down for our siblings, but there's something about the vibes! Maybe it's the Cancer proximity, idk. If anything my anecdata suggests that they're more well adjusted than the rest of us. 🦁❤️🦁

Anyway, I immediately sat up and noticed when they cut to the gravestones because it's second nature for me as an Astrology Gay. Obviously I didn't know Stede at the time and I don't actually know what went down as the character was developed, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if I learned that at least one person in the writers room was a fellow Astrology Gay.

So I completely forgot about his birthdate because a) ADHD and b) swooniest romance I'd ever seen, but I started thinking about it again when I showed up like a year late to the fandom and saw people talk about whether they were Ed coded or Stede coded. I am heavily, heavily Stede coded for neurodivergent reasons, but he also exhibits certain Very Leo traits that I recognized immediately.

Leo stereotypes:

Let's get the stereotypes out of the way because while they do apply sometimes (especially for Stede), there's no need to rehash them in detail.

Leadership, which he struggles with at first but a) takes up the mantle of it anyway and b) improves enough that by the end of the season the crew that wanted to mutiny saves his life.

Good hair. Nuff said.

The man has an auxiliary wardrobe for fucks sake.

His "theatrical instincts are finely honed" and while Izzy says it to encourage the fuckery, it's not a lie.

The Revenge

If an 18th century Leo was going to custom build a pirate ship and money was no object, they would 1000% build the Revenge. I could see arguing that a Taurus might build something similar, but honestly I'm not sure a Taurus would become a pirate by choice. Maybe a Taurus might build like, a pleasure yacht or something. A Libra might build a ship that's as good-looking as the Revenge but sharing expensive tastes isn't enough to convince me either. Stede's money allowed him to build and decorate luxuriously, but plenty of rich people used to comfort didn't have ships like the Revenge. As Nigel says during his tour, it's just so incredibly him.

Now for some feelings stuff:

Leos love it when other people are happy, and when we can be involved in fostering that at all for people we care about we are ON IT. Stede wants to create space for others to get what they need to make that happen. Literally in the first episode he talks about the Revenge as somewhere for his crew to work on their trauma and communicate their feelings.

The above is also an extension of Stede's instinctive generosity. Canon doesn't tell us where Ed got his clothes for the French boat party in episode 5, but given that Stede has an auxiliary wardrobe (which he shared with Ed almost immediately) the most likely scenario seems like he loaned (or maybe even gave!) it to Ed. Another possibility is that it was on the ship where Frenchie found his and Oluwande's outfits, but the purple jacket in particular seems very extra in a way that says "Stede" to me.

Speaking of episode 5, let's talk about the party game. Obviously the main takeaway is that Stede has enough of a handle on passive aggression to make the French assholes tear each other apart, but it's not just the passive aggression, it's in the delivery. With sufficient motivation (Ed's hurt feelings, if not his own) we see Stede command the room with confidence. He chooses his targets well. He knows just what to say to get them to agree to play the game at all. The fire wasn't part of the original plan but it shows just how powerful those hard-won skills are when he wants to apply them. (This doesn't feel like it merits its own bullet point but Leos are protective, ride-or-die friends, something else we see in this episode.)

Stede's love language, imo, is quality time. There are arguments for others (there's also a really good meta about his love language causing miscommunication with our touchy-feely boy Ed, if I can find the link I'll edit) but quality time seems the most appropriate to me. Another part of the whole generosity of spirit thing is that he seems to enjoy what a friend of mine called "engineering experiences" for people i.e. crafting activities and jam sessions for the crew. The most obvious of these is the treasure hunt for Ed, which of course comes out of his fear of Ed leaving, but it's also a way for them to spend time together. I'm not at all surprised that a lonely, bullied kid would grow up to value quality time.

I would also extend this to the clearly routine (but still extravagant) breakfast for two that we see Calico Jack crashing in episode 8. Not to mention the first breakfast he and Ed ever share up on the maintop in episode 4. It's not fancy, but he wakes Ed up to share in that moment because he's enjoying the sunrise and the marmalade, and I can't think of anything more Leo than enjoying something then immediately wanting to share it because someone else might enjoy it too.

Stede's not perfect of course, despite all those seemingly positive things I just said. In the way of some Leos he is frequently thoughtless, up to and including when he didn't make to the dock. I can't speak for every Leo but I have definitely accidentally flirted with/been read as flirting with people before, whether I was attracted to them or not. And yeah his quarters are nice but he could have used some of that space for more crew quarters, right? And how could a Leo possibly misread "what makes Ed happy is you" as badly as he did?

Well I may be an Astrology Binch but I mostly like it (and anything else that puts personalities into discrete groups) as an analysis tool. It's just a fun lens to examine behaviors through, IRL and with fictional characters. Also, the show is clearly trying to examine things like trauma and self-loathing in ways that are gonna inform character behavior way more than a hypothetical astrology enthusiast in the (admittedly pretty queer) writers room. But the vibes? The vibes are so there.

#There's also an entire essay I could write about Leo traits people don't notice or care about but I can do that later #Rhys isn't a Leo though Taika is #Rhys is an Aries and Aries/Leo friendships and relationships can work out extremely well #I appreciate Taika for his Leo vibes #which are not the expected ones #I love seeing a Leo who seems occasionally bored during interviews and stuff #more grumpy Leo representation please #stede bonnet #because this next one came up in the results for Stede's name I'll add it too #stede bonnet has a caretaking kink #which isn't not a Leo thing either lol #ofmd #our flag means death #ofmd meta #our flag means death meta #character meta #astrology is fake but #fictional character astrology #oh also let's not forget all that sunny Leo energy that's part of so much Stede fanon #that feels relevant #afaik we don't have a birthdate for Ed #but it wouldn't surprise me at all to learn he was a Scorpio because the man can BROOD #I can also see him as a couple other signs though so I would need to think about it for a bit longer first #also I couldn't shoehorn it in but something about the difference between confidence and self esteem #Leos can definitely have one but not the other #*points to self*

[Images ID: nine space-themed tshirts of various designs, all with the same "I need my space" joke on them. End ID]

post-pacifist, Sans owns all these shirts because he thinks its hilarious and it makes Papyrus furious because it's the same stupid joke EVERY DAY and Sans is like well its funny every time and Papyrus goes ITS NOT ( ...but at least his brother's actually doing his laundry and wearing things that make him happy instead of the same dirty old jacket so he really doesnt mind that much)

#i was looking at dumb astrology pun shirts and kept laughing every time i saw these ones... there are SO SO SO SO many #anyway thinking abt sans healing and learning to care about small things like stupid tshirts and finding unbridled joy in his life again #:') #sans #papyrus #safeutdr #undertale #pebble ponderings #em ids

Folks thinking that Uttara Bhadrapada is too much of a 'conservative' nakshatra to be career-orientated/self-focused in women is one of the reasons why I started disliking astrology. Like, everything about that is so incorrect it makes me wanna barf lmao. I'd seriously be nothing if I wasn't this self-obsessed, I don't exist to serve anybody else but me and the narrative that Uttara Bhadrapada gives energy to others and is in service of others is laughable,,,, like actually make a real observation of real natives of this nakshatra. Uttara Bhadrapadas are preserving of their energy, so they won't be as selfless as it's said to be – they're quite literally calculating/careful so please 💀

#random #Uttara Bhadrapada #astro observation #astrology #yall just keep making boring ass descriptions of this nakshatra like i haveeee to laugh #the disrespect but also ignoring examples of real natives who are clearly so self-serving #this is jupiter?? this is pisces? its tropical aries for a reason too 🗿 #opportunistic and self serving #most things they do is for self gain but I've noticed their fruits of their labour is also rewarded to their community #that's true #but I AINT SERVING ANYBODY ELSE BUT ME #i have Uttara Bhadrapada Moon AND VENUS #you wanna learn about this nakshatra please stop with these boring ass narratives lol #do some real life research #YES UBP IS CAREER ORIENTATED #its literally co-ruled by Saturn so what do you expect?? #Saturn nakshatra women esp Ubps are LEADERS bro 😭 #levelheaded and cool #sometimes reptilian but thats what makes them ruthless in a work force #also in the back of their head they're thinking about themselves lmao #RANT #Astrology rant

started reading about the shakespeare authorship thing and the first argument from a literary person to say Willy S couldn't have written them is "he didn't go to university," at which point i went "oh wow i didn't realise THIS was the level of 'evidence' people meant"

#early modern university would NOT teach you any of the things this literary critic(?) seemed to think it would #it was all astrology & logic & geometry & shit and while i am quite unclear on WTF they actually learned it was not How To Write A Play #sounds like he'd be needing what they called a grammar school then? for the literacy and the latin and so on #if a school isn't going to teach your son latin you'd not bother with it as in a sense someone with no latin then isn't rly 'literate' #and Latin & Greek 'classics' were kind of the go-to with education then they were not Weird Obscure Shit like they are now #i'd be surprised and confused were Willy-S a peasant but he's merchant class that's exactly the type to write plays innit? #is there a parallel theory explaining that cardinal wolsey the butcher's son was secretly played by a posh dude too? #i'll let you know if any more convincing arguments get made later on (*doubt*) #ironically i'm getting big “and how did YOU get into this university?” vibes here #anyway my point was this is basic stuff to have researched first before you started on about how a middle-class lad couldn't write fiction #history fandom
