Hugh Crain, father in the Haunting of Hill House, is a quiet, stoic and somewhat mysterious character. He spends a lot of time watching, thinking on how best to mediate his family. For the most part, he is ill framed by his family and accepts this, even if it is unjust.
His character is somewhat complex and misunderstood by the other characters, whilst appearing very calm and minimal on the surface. So, what can we make of him astrologically?
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.
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!
Some of my best friends in this whole world are born with some placement in Aquarius. These people are wacky, fun and carefree with a sprinkle of realism so you know where you stand with them. You may have noticed a lot of stigma placed upon them, too though.
“Aquarius Moons have no feelings!”
“How do you even get real with Aquarius Moons?”
“Aquarius Risings are just cold!”
“Aquarius Venus people never want anything serious!”
Well, I think it’s about time someone talked up for them. So here’s a post on everything you’ve been overlooking about your dearest Aquarians.
A great way to practice and explore astrological concepts and portrayals is to take characters from shows and attempt to give them placements! In this post, I will be discussing possible placements for Elsa from Frozen.
Note: There is no right or wrong as she is a fictional character, so if you feel differently, you are absolutely right, too! Feel free to add comments and suggestions!
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.
So this post opened up a question in my brain about how we perceive Scorpio and why we perceive it in such a way. I agree with this post thoroughly, we tend to overlook and forget the pain and paranoia linked to Scorpio and only consider the sexuality and deep trust (issues) of the sign.
But why is that?
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.
After receiving a lot of interest in my method of taking three signs and working out which sign they best embody and attract as a whole, I decided to put the workings into a post. But first, we have to understand where we may look within the houses for attraction.
In western astrology, each house shows us a different part of life. The houses in question in this post are:
The First House: This is the house of the self, the ego, and the confidence. It is what we project onto the world and how we navigate it.
The Fifth House: Representing our self expression and talents amongst other things, this is what people may view in us as positive and something to admire.
The Seventh House: This is the traditional house of relationships and our ways with one another. It shows how we are with our relationships.
The Eighth House: The house of shared resources, but also of deeper hidden investigation. It can have links to obsession due to it being Pluto’s home.
The Tenth House: In this case, we are talking about its links to public image. It can show us what people will immediately see of our persona.
The Eleventh House: Communities, groups and society are represented here. This house can show us how we navigate friend groups and communities.
These houses can show us what kind of signs or elements we tend to attract in our lives. For example, someone with Aries Rising (First House) and Leo Fifth House will definitely attract a lot of fire placements. If someone has a Cancer Midheaven (Tenth House) and Leo Eleventh House, whilst they may attract these two signs and elements, it may be not as simple to work out which specific other signs will be attracted. That’s where planetary rulers come in.

After receiving many messages asking why certain signs were attracted to people and who they may attract based on their charts, I decided to turn the information into a whole post.
This is part one of my analysis and only focuses on the exoteric natal signs of placements within your chart.
The placements here are likely to draw in people of certain signs or planetary dominants. Usually, it will attract the Suns, Risings and dominants of these signs.
Below, in no particular order, are areas of your chart that may attract certain people or placements.
