Pisces & The Realm of Fantasy

The sign of Pisces is a deeply sensitive focal point in astrology, carrying immense emotional energy and mysticism. As a Piscean native myself, I can personally attest to the sense of separation from reality that often comes with this sign.

Pisces in astrologysymbolizes the world beyond what we know. While modern interpretations attribute this to its association with Neptune, I see it as more of a Jupiterian quality. Pisces represents collective beliefs, not in the intellectual sense, like its Sagittarius counterpart, but in the emotional and spiritual realm. It asks, What does this belief make you feel? The catharsis or spiritual elevation people often experience during religious moments, that is Pisces. This underlying energy embodies the universal principle that connects us all, calling us toward a higher power beyond ourselves.

This is why Pisces natives often feel pulled into a world beyond their own. From a young age, they notice things and experience emotions that their peers may dismiss as pure imagination. They perceive beyond physical reality in ways others may not understand. The closest sign to share this otherworldly perception is the preceding Aquarius. As the last two signs of the zodiac, both deal with endings, yet they also have an innate ability to see beyond the end of cycles. When one phase concludes, another begins.

So oftentimes the so called “delusion” of Pisces is not one based of pure detachment, but instead a deep hopefulnes for a better future. This is how their Jupiterian optimism manifest, as unwavering faith. They hope that things will improve, that love will come, that spring will return, and that life will one day be brighter. This hope is their weapon against a world that often feels so cruel and pessimistic. It is why they choose to exist in their own world, where reality can be a place of peace, harmony, and beauty. Pisces reminds us that dreaming of a better world is not just possible, it is necessary.

However, herein lies their Achilles’ heel. The hopeful nature of Pisces is frequently tested by the harsh structures of reality. The pressures of the material world, especially the way society ties worth to money, can take a toll on them, forcing them to confront the limitations of reality. You can hope for better days, but what happens when they never come? Hope to receive love, but what happens when you stay in same cycle with your partner? Hope that you get known, but what happens when you’re barely recognized? The faith of Pisces is often the most heavily tested. Their open-hearted nature makes them vulnerable to being taken advantage of by those who seek to drain them of their love and generosity. This is why it is crucial for Pisces to know when to swim away. They often let themselves stay in troubled waters for far too long. Their fluid nature allows them to adapt, but it can also lead them astray if they fall into the hands of those who manipulate and corrupt them.

This susceptibility can lead to Pisces’ lower octave. At their highest vibration, they inspire through optimism and the beauty of imagination. However, their dreams can quickly turn into nightmares. When they repeatedly face setbacks and see their hopes go unrealized, they may spiral into despair. Their world can become a melancholic prison, where they blame their circumstances on forces beyond their control. In this state, they often attract others who share their misery, feeding into a cycle of negativity. They may become emotionally destructive, even manipulative, using people for their own purposes. A rogue Pisces can be dangerously persuasive, leading others astray with their philosophies and illusions. Additionally, when trapped in their world of disillusionment, Pisces may turn to different forms of escapism. This includes weed, alcohol, drugs, gambling, or reckless pleasure-seeking; as a way of avoiding reality.

But it’s not all doom and gloom. The saving grace of Pisces lies in their ability to transmute these intense emotions into creativity. This is their greatest gift; the ability to transform their pain and suffering into works of ART. I put emphasis on art because it is truly the most significant part of their lives. Whether it be poetry, singing or dance, Pisces needs to find a medium where they can channel the depths of the hidden realms into the physical world. The underlying currents and emotions they cannot express through words become the foundation of their masterpieces.

To truly thrive, Pisces must learn from their Virgo counterpart to ground their visions into reality. Pisces oftentimes have big dreams, it’s the Jupiterean expansion, but these dreams need to be balanced with practical steps to make them real. They need to recognize their circumstances are not limitations, but instead focus on how you can utilize what you have to still honor your vision. This is when it’s important to use your imagination to craft something out of nothing.

Though the world can often be cruel, it is essential for Pisces to never lose their faith. What others call wishful thinking is, in truth, the very force that drives them to create something beyond themselves. They remind us that if we truly look for it, the world is filled with magic and miracles in every corner; as long as we keep ourselves open to it.

The Paradox of Detachment: Who Is Truly Free?

A wandering monk once said, "The one who knows that his body is temporary and is unshaken by its fate is closest to liberation." But if that’s true, then who is truly detached—the fearless warrior who laughs in the face of death, the rogue who risks everything without a second thought, or the mystic who hides behind mantras and astrological charts, seeking protection from every possible misfortune?

Let’s take a moment to step into their worlds.

The Warrior’s Detachment

Steel in hand, battle-scarred, the warrior strides into the storm, knowing he may not return. Death is not an enemy but an old companion, whispering at the edges of his consciousness. Pain? Just another moment passing, no different from the wind cutting across his face.

Before him stretches a battlefield—a graveyard in the making, where the earth drinks steel and blood alike. Blades glint like fangs in the sun, and the air is thick with the scent of iron and blood. He moves forward, stepping over corpses yet to fall, striking, bleeding, killing, knowing that at any instant, fate may turn its gaze upon him.

His body is not his own; it is merely a vessel for war, a tool sharpened for a purpose greater than himself. If detachment means surrendering the fear of death, if liberation is the release from clinging to the fragile shell of flesh—then isn’t he already free? Or is his fearlessness not wisdom, but just the grim acceptance of a world where life has no promises, only endings?

The Rogue and the Drifter

Then there’s the rogue—the outlaw who lives on the edge, the gambler who places his life on the table with a smirk, the wanderer who owns nothing yet moves freely. He has no permanent home, no ties to wealth, no concern for the future. Society may call him reckless, but is he not more detached than the merchant hoarding gold in fear of loss? Or is his non-attachment just another escape, a refusal to commit to anything real?

The Prostitute’s Reality

And what of the woman in the shadows, the one who offers her body as if it were no more than a garment to be worn and discarded? She moves through the night like a whisper, a ghost in silks, untouched by the love or loathing of those who seek her. If detachment means not identifying with the flesh, then is she not closer to liberation than those who clutch desperately at their purity, fearing even the brush of desire?

Yet, is she truly free? Or do unseen chains still bind her—the weight of a world that scorns her even as it seeks her out? Does she give without attachment, or has she merely learned to silence the voice that once longed for something more? If she offers herself without shame, without illusion, without expectation, then is she not as unshackled as the wandering ascetic, the sage who renounces his body in search of truth?

Perhaps freedom is not in what one gives or withholds, but in the mind that holds nothing at all.

The Mystic Who Clings to Protection

Then there is the seeker, draped in robes, whispering spells at dawn, his voice trembling with devotion or is it fear? He bows before the heavens, tracing sacred symbols, clutching charms meant to ward off unseen misfortunes. He speaks of renunciation, of detachment, yet his nights are restless, spent calculating omens and pleading with the stars to soften their decree.

If the body is fleeting, why shield it with spells? If destiny is unchangeable, why beg the cosmos to rewrite its script? He prays for liberation, yet clings to the very world he claims to transcend. He fears hunger, disease, misfortune—things the rogue laughs at, the warrior faces, and the woman in the shadows endures without pretense.

Is he not more bound than those who walk their paths without illusion? He renounces gold but hoards protection. He rejects the world yet fears its touch. In his quest to master fate, has he not become its most devoted servant?

The Singer and Detachment

Then there is the singer, who cannot hide behind illusions, for to sing is to surrender. The unskilled hesitate, but the master bares his soul without fear, knowing music is not his to keep. Each note is given away, dissolving as soon as it is born—like breath, like life.

Yet, is he truly free, or does he cling to the need for an audience, for remembrance? If the afterlife is for the unburdened, then the singer who sings without fear, who vanishes into his song, may already be there.

So, Who Is Truly Free?

Perhaps detachment is not in rejecting the body, nor in offering it freely to fate or desire—it is in knowing, beyond all doubt, that you were never the body to begin with.

The warrior who fights without ego, embracing death as easily as breath. The rogue who moves without fear, unburdened by past or future. The woman who gives without shame, untouched by judgment, neither proud nor broken. The mystic who prays without desperation, seeking nothing, grasping at nothing. Each may have brushed against true freedom, or each may still be ensnared in unseen chains of their own making.

Liberation is not in how one treats the body, but in seeing through the illusion that it was ever you. To move through the world unshaken, untouched—not because you deny life, but because you know it was never yours to hold.

Absolutely adore your blog! Your wisdom and knowledge is greatly appreciated ❤️❤️❤️ thank you for what you do xx

I’m always happy when ya’ll tell me you’re gaining knowledge from my writing. It keeps me motivated to keep on posting so thank you so much <3

Random thought. Aquarius is the clouds ya’ll the symbol ♒️ looks like waves and many say it’s electricity, but looks like clouds to me. But there’s a bigger reason why I bring this up, it’s cause of their detachment. I’ve always wondered how Aquas can be so connected to everyone and the world around them, but also so disconnected at the same time. It’s cause they look from above. Being the clouds gives them the advantage to see everything without the need to form attachment towards it. When they’re upset or overstimulated, they become like thunderstorms and the bolts of electricity are symbolic of the stimulation going on within. Also, their modern co ruler Uranus is the god of the skies in Greek mythology which further adds to the cloud association.

Aura of the air signs

In astrology, Air signs have a unique ability to influence the atmosphere around them. They are the unseen force that set the tone for interactions, shaping the environment through communication, ideas and their social energy. Like the air itself, they move seamlessly through spaces allowing themselves to be felt. They create impactful conversations and make light connections that are remembered long after they’re gone.

What this means is that the placement of air signs in your chart (and the planetary influences tied to them) defines the social energy you bring into an environment. It tells the story of how people perceive you and the vibe you exude in social settings. This unintentionally makes them natural centers of attention since their presence stirs the air around them. Whether that be through conversation, laughter, or even their energy. It’s as though the air signs pass through the atmosphere, leaving it forever changed.

Gemini’s air is one filled with chatter and laughter. It is a whirlwind of excitement and curiosity, like a warm summer breeze. They are the ones that will tell you fun facts about a random topic which intrigues them. Conversations are their stronghold, displaying that they can keep up with anyone from different backgrounds. This often can be very surface level, but Geminis have an ability to pull out deep conversations out of people. One reason is that they are very open to communication which leaves others to feel at ease to open up to them. However, the main factor is that Geminis know how to ask the right questions and stir a conversation. They don’t shy away from their curiosity which makes others intrigued to communicate. There is a quickness to their enigmatic air, often leaving as quickly as they came. Behind them they leave inspiration, knowledge, and unforgettable conversations. I always say Geminis remind me of the phrase “Gone with the wind”. They breeze through life, often leaving others to question if their breeze was a figment of their imagination.

Libras air is graceful and alluring, carrying a sense of balance that smooths out even the most chaotic environments. It is like a crisp cool autumn breeze, refreshing and filled with moisture. There’s something about their aura that draws people in, making you feel safe and at ease in their presence. Like you can’t help, but like them and get reeled into their charming character. Their air is a mix of sweet perfumes and delicate body oils that linger, creating an irresistible atmosphere. “Love is in the air” is their life motto and they carry that with them wherever they go. Whether intentionally or not, Libras air feels like a soft seduction. They keep eye contact in conversations, know how to balance intellectual stimulation and make cheeky comments. At first glance it may feel like they are flirting, but later realize it is just a natural part of their charm. Libras know how to make others like them and the right things to say to gain admiration. This why sometimes their kindness may come across as being fake. However, don’t let that fool you, they are very passionate individuals that love to debate. Even when disagreements arise they seem to have an air of elegance, leaving those involved feeling both challenged and intrigued.

Aquarius air is one brimming with disruption and chaos. It’s like a storm of winds that shake up everything in its path. This air stirs the minds and hearts of those around them, pushing boundaries and forcing change. Lightening is a significant symbol for Aquas because of the shock factor they leave behind. People are polarized by their unconventional conversations and ideas. They can seem like the less inviting among the air signs, but once you break the ice you can’t help being pulled into the storm. The storm energy of Aquarius comes from their over-analyzation of what is going on around them. So many neurons are being fired at once which can lead to overstimulation for themselves and people they talk to. They are very bright though and don’t like their intelligence to be downplayed. When in their vicinity, you feel this rush of electricity to talk about and do anything. They bring to you a foreign perspective. If you want to feel renewed and need new ideas, Aquarius is the one you go to.

Planetary Influence

The heavenly bodies have a direct impact on how air moves in a chart. For air specifically, there is a need for clarity. If there are too many planets, it can be hard for the air to push through. Their is a since of lightness and weightlessness that air signs need in order to properly function. Too many placements leads to overstimulation and a tendency to be reclusive in their minds. They don’t loose their social factor, but it makes them big over thinkers. Air moves the best when the energy is free.

Sun: The suns influence in air signs actually brings about its own set of challenges. Out of the 3, only Gemini has a good relationship to the Sun. It is in Fall in libra and in detriment in Aquarius. What this tells me is that the Sun finds it hard to shine and express itself in an environment that is so focused on other people. How can you shine for yourself when you’re always worried about the social needs of others. The light of the air signs can feel like clouds blocking the sun. They are not shining for just themselves, but for the social group around them as well.

Moon: The moon in air signs brings a nurturing factor towards conversations and communication. They know how to make people feel safe to open up to them about their throughts and opinions. A keen ability to analyze their close one’s emotions. The downside though is a detachment from their feelings. They often try to process their inner world from an intellectual landscape rather than feeling them through. This can make them be unreadable to other people.

Mercury: This is the best friend of the air signs. Mercury does really well in all 3 signs. It allows them to be able to do what they do best, communication. Mercury in the air signs make their mental capacity very sharp and ready to navigate any topics of discussion. These are very smart individuals that have a reservoir of information.

Venus: In the realm of love, the air signs can be extremely flirtatious and misleading. They will reel you in with their words and stimulation, but you will feel caught off guard by their detachment. It feels like love is a game to them. They may find it hard to build lasting connections because of their need to be free. It’s like they are up in the air which makes it hard to feel like you can grasp them.

Mars: The planet of war in the air signs causes unnecessary challenges surrounding interactions and communication. Here the air becomes hot like the desert, making it hard to breathe. The slightest misunderstanding can lead to conflict for these individuals. It is important for you to watch what you say and know when to defend yourself when necessary. The strength of mars makes them good debaters, but people can often say things to rage bait you.

Jupiter: This planet brings a strong presence within the air signs. Their ideas deeply shape their beliefs and faith. Wisdom can be found through their interactions with other people. However, information overload can become a problem for air Jupiters. Faith can also be a struggle for air Jupiter’s as they operate based on factual data instead of just pure belief: they need things to make sense.

Saturn: Now yall already know, Saturn is gonna bring a sense of heaviness in the air. It can feel like they have a responsibility towards the social and intellectual aspect of there environments. The weight of this can be heavy on them making them uncomfortable and anxious about forming relationships. However, they learn how to place boundaries and be very selective about who is in their presence. Saturn does pretty well in the air signs since it is in Domicile in Aquarius and Exalted in Libra. I think it’s because Saturn is focused on maintaining order and in the air it knows how to maintain social order. It becomes unbiased because it isn’t so easily attached. This allows it to be able to make good judgement.

___

Whether through the ideas they inspire, the emotions they evoke, or the stories they leave behind, the air signs remain a lingering presence in their environment. They are seamlessly both attached and free from societal influences at the same time. Catch them if you can and learn from the short, but worthwhile interactions.

Your mind is always in the future and this leads you to having a lot o progressive ideas. It's because you desire to be a free thinker and be liberated through your mind.

Aquarius 6th house: You have a unique way in how you move through your day to day that separates you from other people. Time is of the essence and you want to find a different approach to spend it wisely. Your schedule may be somewhat chaotic with you always having something new to do. The people who view you in your day today might not like your approach to your daily routine. However, that is what fits you personally and helps you keep composure through the storms in your daily life. You may be dealing with a lot of disorganization within your daily environment. Since this is the house of bad fortune, misfortunate events can occur out of nowhere. This can greatly disrupt your routine and send you into a state of panic. Aquarius is teaching you here that no matter how hard you try, not everything in your life will be order. You overcompensate in your life by trying to keep things in check, but something will happen and things will fall apart. It's about adaptability and being detached from the hurdles that come your way. In doing so you find unique ways to navigate your life. You can also have an unconventional approach towards health and wellness. Might be into home remedies and alternative medicine. Keeping your body healthy in a personal method that works for you, helps separate you from other people.

If Leo is the Sun, then Aquarius is the Stars.

Aquarius is the sister sign and sits opposite Leo. Even though they are under Leo’s light, they have a keen ability to shine in their own spotlight. This ability to still shine represents the fact that Aquarius understands, Leo is not the only star out there. Unlike everyone else who is blinded by the Leo’s light, Aquarius sees past that. It’s an inner knowing that there are many other stars in our galaxy.

It’s why Aquarius doesn’t focus on popularity. They remain outside the norm and outside the boundaries to stand out in their own light. Leo stands out because they fit into the mold of society and what’s popular. Aquarius stands out because they are polarizing and people can’t help notice how different they are. They don’t care for what is the trend and currently hot in the moment.

Other people often can’t see that what is popular in the moment is not all that there is. Aquarius knows that there is more than what’s current out there, it’s what makes them ahead of their time. That’s why they often get the alien stereotype because they bring a futuristic sense to our current world view. They often face a lot of push back from the world because not conforming makes others see them as a threat. It’s why the Sun is debilitated in Aquarius because when you shine, it creates conflict with how others see you.

Mars In Cancer

I was contemplating about this today. Although Mars is in Fall in Cancer, it still remains a very formidable Mars placement to have. Mars is in fall in Cancer since it is opposed to the exalted Mars in Capricorn. Unlike Capricorns logical drive and disciplinary motivations, Cancer moves based on emotional impulse, sensitivity and intuition. This can negate Mars will for quick action because if Cancer does not feel emotionally connected to it, they will not move.

However, I believe these individuals are underestimated when it comes to the amount of power and raw energy they possess. Since Mars controls the way we fight and defend ourselves, Cancer Mars is a strong position to have because of the signs focus on safety and defending their emotional body. What makes them powerful is that Cancer Mars doesn’t fight alone. They gather support and nurture loyalty, which makes each action feel deeply backed by the people around them. They are like a powerful Queen who understands that true strength lies in the unity of the collective rather than individual force. The protective, maternal instincts of Cancer also make it fight fiercely for what it loves, adding another layer of strength to this placement. When they attack, it’s not just them you have to worry about, but also smite of everyone within their circle.

While this placement can make it difficult for them to deal with family, Cancer Mars still retain a lot of protection and power from their family. In fact, positive or not, their family can be a great source of motivation to drive them to complete their goals. There’s a complicated layer to family dynamics with this placement that can make it feel emotionally turbulent for them.

The ties they have to their roots, ancestry, or community end up being a strong foundation from which they can draw strength, especially in times of need. It’s as if the family is an invisible shield, while the Cancer Mars might feel burdened by them at times, the protection and power are always there. It is subtly guiding and supporting them in the background. Their emotional connection to others becomes a quiet, yet potent, source of resilience and energy.

With Mars being retrograde in Cancer right now this post is fitting

The Planets in Astrology

Sun is Sol aka Soul. It’s your essence and the power source in your chart. It can also be symbolized as your ego as each birthday you have is a celebration of the Sun. This planet essentially shows how you shine and the light you bring into the world. The sign and house the sun is in oftentimes is where you excel the most. It’s where you have authority and significant influence. Dictates having ruler ship, sort of like where you are king. The Sun also depicts your relationship with your father as well.

The moon: In astrology, the moon deals with several aspects of your life in the birth chart. It’s why it’s considered the most important planet in Vedic astrology. Essentially deals with how you feel at home. Not just your physical home, but the emotional world within you as well and how safe you feel within your own body. Since the body houses dna and remnants of family the moon deals with how you interact with your direct family members . The relationship you have with family and also the way you interact with your ancestors. Undertanding your moon sign is understanding what makes you feel safe and comforted, as well as your origin story.

Mercury: The intellectual aspect of the heavenly bodies. It is essentially the mind, showing how you process information. It also deals with the voice and your communication style. It’s how you get across who you are to other people in the world and how other people will receive what you say. Important to note Mercury always stays close to the Sun it can only be one sign behind, the same or one sign in front the Sun. The depiction of the fool always being close to the King is depicting mercuries relationship to the sun.

Venus: the planet of love, beauty and glamour. I feel like the most essential aspect of Venus is pleasure. What brings you a sense of satisfaction in your life. Your Venus sign shows how you give and receive pleasure in your life. Pleasure is not a bad thing, but the dark side to Venus shows without boundaries it can lead you to overindulgence and superficiality. The planet also rules over your values and what makes you have a sense of self worth. It can also signify your monetary gains and relationship with money. Venus is exalted in Pisces showing that love excels when it’s unconditional. However, unconditional love does not really exist. Mainly because you need certain boundaries and conditions in love, or else you are only allowing yourself to be mistreated. What I believe unconditional love to mean is that no matter who you are, you are deserving of love and with the people you love you must learn to forgive( forgiveness being the core trait of Pisces)

Mars: The driving force in our birth chart. It’s often associated with passion, aggression and drive. Mars is the warrior and how we fight for what we want in our lives. But as much as it is associated with violence and destruction, I often see mars as the planet of protection. One because of the shield that is apparent within the symbol. However it’s mainly because mars does not fight unless it feels threatened, it is a planet that seeks for justice. So in order to protect himself, he must utilize the sword to strike down his enemies. In summary mars is going to show how we fight and protect ourselves, what angers us and motivates us to keep pushing forward. I would also like to point out that mars is often associated with our sex drive as well. I need to do more research on this, but it’s mainly because Mars controls those primal instincts within us. Sex being one of those instinctive urges. The combination between your Venus and your Mars can show the sensual pleasures you seek in life.

Jupiter: The planet of expansion. After Venus, it is the 2nd benefic planet but considered the most beneficial. Whatever Jupiter touches it expands and enlarges. We can see this from the fact that it is the largest planet. The key word for Jupiter is abundance but the shadow to this is excess. Wherever Jupiter is placed in your chart you will experience an excessive amount of that energy. Oftentimes, your Jupiter placement will take you on important journeys that will help teach you significant life lessons. Jupiter rewards you when you learn these lessons and apply them into your belief system. It is the guru planet that makes you gain wisdom from experience. Experience is another key word for Jupiter as it rules over long distance travel and foreign lands. How far will you go for the chance to gain knew knowledge. If you want more luck in your life tap into your Jupiter placement.

Saturn: Now Papa Saturn... Farther time can often be so cruel, but we later see down in the future this was a blessing in disguise. Saturn is the planet of restriction and discipline. Whichever house and sign Saturn is in your chart you can expect significant delays to occur, you might feel like your being blocked from any progress, but Saturn shows with resilience and consistency things do become better. Time heals all is the main theme of Saturn. It provides you with blessings through growth and maturity. This is what the Saturn return is all about, when Saturn comes back to the sign of your birth after about 28 years. It comes to either bless you for becoming wiser and older or wake you up to your false reality. At the end of the day Saturn just wants to bring you a sense of stability.

The outer planets:

Now with the outer planets they are a little bit tricky because they have all been discovered within the last few centuries. So interpretation are very modern. But the myths of the planets explain their significance. These are generational planets as they take a long time to move around the sun. This means it’s important to recognize this is a collective energy rather than a personal influence. Think of them as ways you interact with the larger society. Unless these planets are making strong aspects in your birth chart, they often don’t hold much significance.

Uranus: This is the planet of upheavals and major rebellions. Uranus in the birth chart shows where you stand out in your generation. It signifies authority and where you demonstrate your uniqueness from society. It is an innovative energy that correlates to new technology; as it was discovered during the Industrial Revolution. There is a sense of unpredictability with Uranus, you can never really know the next move of this planetary energy. Future oriented, the placement it is in makes you seek novelty and carve a new path towards innovation. There’s an intellectual aspect to Uranus often seen as foreign knowledge, like an alien understanding of information.

Neptune: This is the planet of illusion and idealized dreams. Neptune shows us that everything is not what it seems. That oftentimes we create a collective fantasy. This fantasy is one that a generation may share based on the sign Neptune is in. In our charts, it can signify where we are often deluded and lose a sense of reality. Confusion is a significant theme for Neptune as even its discovery was covered in mystery. The waters of Neptune can be very dreamy and surreal. You can often get shrouded in a false sense of self in the house Neptune sits in. You may get a lot of confusion on what to do and how to properly maneuver through. It’s important to be cautious about leaning into false illusions and move with sensibility in the regards to your Neptune. However, intuition is also an essential component of navigating the waters of Neptune, you have to somewhat feel your way through.

Pluto: One of the smallest planets, but with the most influential amount of power. Pluto shows us that true power does not lie in size, but rather influence and impact. The significance of Pluto comes from its association with our unconscious shadows. The sign Pluto transits in shows us what in our time do we idealize and give a lot of power to. Later on, this will be ultimately destroyed and transformed. Pluto is the underworld, so it shows the underlying fear we collectively have surrounding the placement of that sign. It is also a planet of corruption as the things we give significant importance to often have hidden shadows. Where Pluto sits in our chart, we often see the hidden nature and the evil ways this placement can have an impact our lives. Pluto shows us that death is not a ending, but a beginning into something new. It is important to not let fear sabotage you in the house that this planet sits in. Instead alchemize it into strength for yourself, seeing where you can influence the world around you.

Being a Queer Christian is beautiful actually because in a world telling you that you aren’t loved you get to look to God and say “Don’t worry; My faith is stronger than their fear”

And there is something poetic to that.

I’ve realized how much my Taurean energy be affecting me when it comes to my work. I’m very intentional and slow to finish things. That’s why I post astrology content so inconsistently. This and combined with how I be getting so hyper focused on daily struggles makes me not put much work out there on time. My goal was to post things in a chronological order, doing each post respectively during each season of each sign. But that has not been working for me, deadlines are a nightmare esp for a Pisces. So I’m gonna just post whatever and whenever I have that creative edge. Allowing myself to not be so confined by the idea of organization. This especially cause I have so many drafts saved that I never finished 😭
