Cheat Sheet: Signs Crushing

So, how do you know your crush likes you back!? Well, I have a little cheat sheet on how to tell…

Check Sun, Moon, Venus and Mars.

Jupiter and the Sign Souls

I was just thinking about the timeline of the signs, and how Aries is the youngest soul transitioning up to Pisces who is the oldest, and it occurred to me that Jupiter divides the timeline into 3 parts.

For those of you who don’t know, the signs lay out an age timeline. Aries being the new born child, Taurus being the infant, and so on until you get to Pisces being the elder.

There is also a theory that we go through each Sun sign as per the life we are on in our wheel, for example a Gemini has been to Earth 3 times. In this theory, we must learn lessons from each life in each sign to move onto the higher realm.

Retrogrades: How To

I’ve seen a lot of people talk about them and also received a lot of asks, so I believe it’s time I made my own post on them. This goes for anything which enters retrograde.

Cheat Sheet: Easy Placements

When you first learn about a placement, the obvious thing to do is look for descriptions, however these can be extremely unhelpful. Why? No description will ever fully encapsulate a placement. It will focus on one idea of it, or go straight to possible conclusions without explaining why those could be true.

Instead, I prefer to take the ‘anti-description’ route. When I start learning, I look to each part of the placement for its ingredients and build them together myself. In this way, you can see all the possible conclusions a placement may take.

With this in mind, I’ve compiled a cheat sheet of possible ingredients of each aggregate: signs, modalities, elements, planets, houses, and aspects!

A Masterlist: Sun, Moon, Houses I-IV

Now, people may groan when I say this, but astrology is all about learning and researching. With that in mind, we have to broaden our perspectives and knowledge outside of what we see on our social platforms. With that in mind, I’ve compiled this list of resources from elsewhere on the internet! These sites are well known and well respected for their knowledge, and make great reads no matter your level of astrology.

This probably won’t be the first masterlist I make on here. If you follow me on tumblr you know I already have one for informative tumblr posts and also a tag for the best tumblr resources I find. With that in mind, this post more or less covers all you need to know about the Sun, the Moon, and the general houses + specific posts on houses 1 through to 4.

With no further ado, here’s the masterlist.

Was The Romantic Era Perfectly Timed?

In present day, the term ‘romantic’ connotes love, relationships and affections, but dating back to the middle of the 1800s, the term was picked up to describe an age of art and literature just passed which argued for nature and feelings as opposed to the industrialisation of the world and its people.

Broadly, the Romantic Era in Britain is laid out to be 1800 to 1850, works created in this time coming as a reaction to the Industrial Revolution which began circa 1760. However, the term ‘romanticism’ is known to specifically apply to works created between 1790 and 1820.

 

The Stream of Doing Good

All signs aim to to good by others in some way, shape or form. Aries wants to inspire confidence in you, Gemini wants to be the one to talk you through your problems, and Capricorn wants to be a nurturing advisor. Amongst all the signs, however, there is a stream of signs who focus their energy on doing good by and for others. This stream lies from Cancer to Libra.

Manifestations: Developed and Undeveloped

Whilst the line between developed and undeveloped placements is sometimes blurred, it is undeniable that there are positive and negative manifestations of everything you can see within a chart. This post is a quick discussion of this concept and how it’s factors are not as clear cut as some may perceive.

Entwining Your Dominant Energies

I’ve noticed a lot of people seem to make the mistake of taking only the first dominant sign or planet, but your dominants works more as a rank than as one true thing.Everyone has every sign/planet/element/modality within them. Each sign will have some amount of prevalence in your chart. Whether it only sits on a house cusp, or is in a planet placement in your chart. Still, for this reason, it’s key to look at dominants as encompassing yourself, rather than defining yourself by one sign of planet.

For example, my dominant sign is Libra, but this would not be enough to understand or study me. I would also take my next two: Virgo and Sagittarius. Then, I could start to study these signs and their archetypes, and see how they can relate to me as a whole.

That’s the key to dominants: it is you as a whole. They work as a flash point, a conclusion, to your chart. I like to use the analogy of a blurb to a book. They’re the part of you which quickly gives as idea of the details to come. Each sign or planet has a certain set of values and characteristics, which when you combine with the other most prominent dominants you have, can act as almost a small biography of who you are.
