ASTROLOGY REFRESHER
✨Because everyone forgets something once in a while
✨THE LUMINARIES* (THE SUN AND MOON) AND THE PLANETS
*a lot of astrologers refer to the sun and the moon as planets, (yes they know that they’re not actually planets) but it’s a personal preference of mine to call them luminaries
THE SUN:
Description:
The sun is the base of everything that you are. It is the part of you that you wake up with and the part of you that you retreat to when you are too tired to truly embrace and understand the other parts of you. The sun is your foundation and it is something that is built upon but is not something that you’re unable to retreat to. The sun is the simplest and the truest form of you, strip away everything else that you are and you will always be what the sun is in your natal chart at heart.
Associated with: The ego, general vitality
Rules: Leo
THE MOON:
Description:
The moon is your heart and the moon is how you feel, it’s the sadness that creeps up on all of us late at night, it is what we emotionally attach to other people and to ourselves, it is everything that we feel truly and deeply. The moon is the most private part of ourselves. In the natal chart, it’s where everything that we deem vulnerable and soft about ourselves goes.
Associated with: Emotions, the childhood, the mother/family, comfort, protection
Rules: Cancer
MERCURY:
Description:
Mercury is our thoughts and how they move, it is the clicking of typing on a keyboard, voices melting together in busy environments, and words made poignant by fresh ink on paper. Mercury is how we communicate and what we have made of our own words, it is the perception of ourselves that we choose to communicate to the world. Mercury is also the knowledge that we grasp onto, the way that we think and what we primarily use our mind for.
Associated with: The mind, thoughts, communication, how we learn
Rules: Gemini and Virgo
VENUS:
Description:
Venus is both beauty itself and everything that is considered beautiful. It is everything aesthetically pleasing, it is everything pleasant, and above all, Venus has everything to do with love. Venus is not only what makes us pleasing to the eye or what/who we find beautiful, it is also is how we love, what we do with our love, and how we are when it comes to romantic relationships. It is what we seek in a partner and what we actually need in a relationship.
Associated with: Love, beauty, aesthetics
Rules: Taurus and Libra
MARS:
Description:
Mars is a flame that cannot be extinguished, it is our passion, it is our drive, it is what makes us want to strive to become who we can be and not just who we are. And just like a flame everything that mars is associated with is almost like burning. Anger, aggression, confrontation, and passion. Mars is the more primal part of your natal chart, relying more on instinct and what you feel like you’re meant to do.
Associated with: Anger, aggression, passion, motivation, physical intimacy
Rules: Aries
JUPITER:
Jupiter is the planet of unyielding expansion, whether that’s externally or internally. It is what we have made of the world, our philosophies, and how we will expand on that throughout our lives. Jupiter is the planet of abundance and of prosperity, whether it’s good for you or not. It is the planet that will allow you to grow into the person that you want to become, someone who fits your own thoughts on life and your personal philosophies.
Associated with: Expansion, growth, philosophy, an abundance, prosperity, opportunity
Rules: Sagittarius
SATURN:
Saturn is the planet of discipline and of learning essential life lessons, and not always in the most desired way. Saturn is the stern teacher, the methods used to teach you may be harsh, but through hard work and dedication you will be able to achieve what you were always to meant to achieve, along with growing as a person. Many astrologers view Saturn has a more malefic planet, however, I believe that this is due to the process that Saturn puts us through rather than the end result.
Associated with: Life lessons, restrictions, the father
Rules: Capricorn
URANUS:
Uranus is the planet that pushes out the old in brings in the new, it has everything to do with societal changes and the future. It is a revolutionary and a unique planet, one that is able to encourage people to challenge traditions and to be completely unafraid to be who they are. Uranus is a generational planet, meaning that most of your generation, or at least most of your friends that are around your age, will have the same Uranus sign. Due to this we often see one mindset on change with each generation, bringing them together and unifying them in order to be able to make great change.
Associated with: Uniqueness, change, revolutions, the future
Rules: Aquarius
NEPTUNE:
Neptune is the planet of mirages and deceit. It paints a much prettier picture on the outside, one of escapism and dreaminess and everything psychedelic, but on the inside, things are much less wonderful. Neptune is not meant to be a realistic planet, in fact, it’s quite the opposite. Here you’ll find your hopes, dreams, and your most intricate of fantasies; even if they’re extremely difficult or impossible to actually attain. Neptune is the siren of astrology, leading you astray to find a much uglier truth.
Associated with: Dreams, mirages, escapism, fantasies
Rules: Pisces
PLUTO:
To wrap the luminaries and the planet up, Pluto is one of the most transformative planets. (Yes, I know that Pluto is a dwarf planet, but in astrology it is referred to as a planet.) And the transformation that you must endure with this planet will not be a nice one. Pluto is all about changing a person from the ground up, which means the eventual destruction of anything that would be considered unhealthy of your life. It is quite literally like being rebirthed from the ashes of your former self, and this is the way that Pluto operates.
Associated with: Transformation, destruction, rebirth
Rules: Scorpio

THE FIRST HOUSE (ASCENDANT): Your “vibe”, your presence, someone’s first impressions of you, your physical features, who you are on the outside

THE SEVENTH HOUSE (DESCENDANT): Long term relationships, marriage, balance, commitment, peace, diplomacy, cooperation, the traits within you that you do not like in others but you cannot see in yourself
THE EIGHTH HOUSE: Death (and not just physical),rebirth, long kept secrets, some of the more private parts of us, the occult, intimacy, the parts of us that we prefer to keep hidden
THE NINTH HOUSE: Travel, your view on the world, broadening one’s perspective, philosophy, higher education, where you want to be
THE TENTH HOUSE (MIDHEAVEN): Who you want to be, who you will strive to become, your dedication, your work ethic, your ability to succeed, your ideal version of yourself

It's sad when one of the best days of my life is my cat finally using something I brought home for her. I bought her a cardboard cat barn from target. I saw it before Halloween happened and went back today and got it for $5. Finally...something she likes and was inexpensive😩😖💓💓😾

@fatsweets has made me realize that my hobby is decorating envelopes/packages for animal crossing cards or other items I sell... I already knew I put an equal or more amount of money on making things look nice, I am okay with that because honestly I just like for my items to get a new home. He always told me I should have a hobby and this is technically a hobby. I take a white or basic envelope and use tape and stickers to decorate. I put a lot of time into something that should take a few seconds. A large joy in my life is when I receive eBay feedback and the person mentions my packaging and how cute it is..💬💬💦 Thanks for that realization, Butt.
