! ‎WELCOME ‎ TO ‎@ROSIERSDRS 𖦹 ‎ LOCK BOX ‎ !

⋆°｡⋆

hello there , please feel free to call me koia or samson ! these are names i use in my dr’s or online - and i am a film studies graduate , beginner tarot reader , resident cinephile + just a overall lover of spiritually and astronomy , such as space , horoscopes or shifting !

i just want a place to share my thoughts and be myself as much as i can , in a space that is wholly mine ! i am a little all over the place , a self certified cinephile + whimsy person ! very quiet , but chronically online with a constant need to yap to anyone who will listen , doing it in a void is no fun at all ! i have been on tumblr before but not for a long time , so im excited to talk about shifting again , to people who actually care or shift !

⋆°｡⋆

ok , so here is a little bit about me overall ! lets introduce some of my favourite things — making many playlists / pinterest boards ( often around my drs ) , noah kahan , mitski , autumn , harry potter ( not the author , just the world ) , fantasy books , the stars and moon , certain foreign movies ( stories like minari , parasite and rec are ones i can think of currently ) + tarot cards / chanelling

due to my background in cinema + the history of film , i watch a lot of films ( i only started to track them towards the end of this year ) so i have probably watched a lot more, but i have so far tracked 150 ! my top four on letterboxd are probably not what you would expect from a film student , but i am not ashamed of the films . . . wild robot ( i will hear no complaints about animated films , it was magnificent + i have currently watched it three times , im in love ) , miss peregrines home for peculiar children , parasite + fruitvale station ! with a honourable mention to the ballard of songbirds and snakes , who resided on my list for the best part of a year !

⋆✶ films and characters that i relate to the most are : remus lupin ( harry potter ) - reading obsessed + grandpa jumpers oh yes , sam ( that christmas ) , fawn ( tinkerbell ) , luisa ( encanto ) , susan ( narnia ) , kiki ( kiki’s delivery service ) , edmund ( narnia ) and hanna ( pll ) , luna lovegood ( harry potter ) — wide mix of characters , but basically people who have two very different sides to them or go on a journey of discovery !

dni with my account if - your a anti shifter , you don’t agree or like who i shift for ! or just basic dni — just be a decent person please ! i will not follow you back or interact if your a minor , as im 22 and we also have nothing in common !

⋆°｡⋆

✶ ‎ ‘AUT ‎ VIAM ‎ INVENIAM ‎ AUT ‎FACIAM’ ‎ ‘i will find a way or i will make a way’

i have been involved in the shifting community since the end of 2019 / early 2020 ( survived early shifttok ) and now i am avoiding shifttwt as much as i can ! i have many desired realities + different lives that i live around the multiverse — which i cannot wait to experience ! recently shifting has been a slight love / hate relationship & i am trying to find my way back , to loving it as fully as i did before i lost my motivation ! i am coming back into shifting with a brand new mindset & i can’t wait to document it all here 𖦹

2024 Retrospective + 2025 Plans

"I want to write astrology posts that make people feel good about themselves. I want them to read it and it feels like a warm hug after a hard day. I want to inspire a sense of hope and optimism in people that don’t have any of their own. I want to be the spark of inspiration in someone who looks in a mirror and sees nothing they like anymore. I think that is what astrology was for me, a soul searching, a desperation to understand myself and how I fit in the world. But instead I found my spirituality, confidence, and strength and self awareness. That is what astrology should be used for, what I am going to use it for." -- Sidereal Maven / @siderealmaven

Hi, hello my lovely Readers :)

Like many of you, I am using the end of my 2024 to prepare for 2025. This includes looking back on the content I've made this year, what I think worked and what didn't. A lot of this is determined by how much I enjoyed creating it but it's also determined by your feedback. I pay a lot of attention to what gets engagement and what doesn't. So if there is any content this year that you really loved, that you want to see more of, let me know with a like or comment!

While going through this process, I ran across the above quotation from my journal last January, when I was working on 2024's content calendar. I wanted to share it because I feel like it really illustrates where I was last year with Sidereal Maven and the goals I wanted to achieve, as well as the goals that I have for my Patreon in 2025.

When I walked into 2024, I decided I wanted to take Sidereal Maven in a completely different direction than I had from 2020-2022. I no longer wanted to focus heavily on transits or horoscopes for a few reasons. The main one is that once the date for said content passes, the content dies too. It's no longer useful to anybody, which is upsetting considering this type of content takes some of the most thought, consideration, and energy. The other reason is because I was determined to break my own habit of nervously anticipating negative consequences to every incoming transit (which quite frankly was just unhealthy) and this is easier to do when you're not writing about it every month.

Instead, I was/am determined to create a library of natal sidereal astrology content for both beginners and advanced students to explore and reference. There are loads of books and youtube videos out there about how to read your tropical birth chart and your Vedic sidereal birth chart. There are articles and classes out there for sidereal students who don't use the Vedic framework, but these are few and far between. My mission is simply to fill this gap by writing everything I know, so that you and others can benefit from it at your own pace.

But to surmise my motivations as simply filling an obviously large gap in natal western sidereal astrology content on the internet or otherwise, is only half the story. The other half of it is that in the past, not only did I anticipate negative outcomes to every transit because of my own anxiety about the world, but these negative attitudes bled into everything that I wrote. Once I realized this, I felt embarrassed and ashamed. I do not want to push my negative feelings/beliefs about life onto my readers, who are going through their own hard times.

Secondly, I realized a big part of this issue was that I consumed astrology content that reaffirmed my negative beliefs and feelings, until they felt so overwhelming that for a while there, I was unable to have a positive relationship with astrology itself or have any hope for my future as an astrologer. I had to step back and really reconsider what astrology was to me, why it mattered so much that I had already dedicated years of my life to writing about it, performing readings for the public, and starting this patreon to begin with. This took a lot of soul searching, some grieving, and re-calibrating.

I wrote this in my journal during a time when I desperately looking for a reason to keep believing in myself and this work. It might be easy to say I keep writing because it pays a bill, or that I've already invested too much to stop even when it feels like nothing is quite working anymore, but it wouldn't be true. I am not someone who does things because I feel obligated, in fact that is usually motivation for me to burn a bridge if my Fire Dominant chart is being honest.

The truth is that I love astrology because of the way it has helped me see and reimagine myself, over and over again. I love the way astrology has inspired me to see my strengths and act on them, to take control of my life and the story I tell myself about who I am. Without astrology, I am not sure what kind of person I would be or where my life would have gone. This is why I devote myself, my time and my energy to astrology over and over again.

As for Sidereal Maven and the Patreon, I devote myself to it because I want other people to have the ability to use astrology as a tool of empowerment, the way it has been for me. I'm not here to poke and prod at your traumas, indoctrinate you into an ideology, or predict doom and gloom in the years ahead. Equally, I won't be predicting endless sunny skies either. I have no intentions of spouting vague spiritual advice or passive aggressive hot takes about your zodiac sign that hit you below the belt.

What I will be doing is slowly but surely building my library up with the hope that one day, whatever question you have can be answered with a search through my page. I will be taking my time to create content that shows you how to use astrology in a way that positively impacts your life, should you choose to study and apply the information I provide.

What were you doing last night at 12 AM? (this is for the day before, i just didn't post it lolol) playing as the Gallaghers in the Sims 4. bro it's honestly stressful because they're unhappy about everything 😭 like wdym Carl refuses to sleep and wakes everyone up because he's scared of monsters under his bed. Meanwhile Ian has a fear of fire from failing at cooking two times and Lip had a fear of failure 💀 And this is if Frank actually did things around the house so it's not even accurate (because he's the only parent ☠️) anyway I played for a total of 12 hrs yesterday

What word do you still have trouble remembering how to spell? millennium

You accidentally ate some radioactive vegetables. They were good, and what's even cooler is that they gave you the superpower of your choice! What is that power? healing

First thing you would buy if you won the lottery? a plane ticket to Malaysia

Who is your favorite author? can't I say one of you? I don't read enough books for this 😔 maybe Madeline Miller because I love her prose and she wrote my favorite book 🤷‍♀️

Planets don't control people. Just as an MRI will show brain damage but didn't cause the damage, planets show when things may happen depending on how the life has been lived. If you are someone who has been lying and stealing, strong transit or Solar Arc activity by Neptune can represent the period of time (when it is within orb of being exact) when you pay the price for what you've done.

Giuliani is now in hot water for all of the lying for Trump. He accused the two ladies of some nonsense regarding the 2020 voting in Georgia regarding Trump and it was a lie. When you do that and Neptune comes along, it can be karma time.

I had a client last year who came to me because his job placed him on suspension because there was a suspicion of him stealing. I asked him if he had been stealing and he said, "Well, I took a few things." His horoscope showed SA Neptune opposing the Sun and squaring the MC. He is in prison now.

Giuliani's Moon co-rules his MC and is receiving intensification from Uranus. As much as the MC is about career, it is also about one's status in the world. His is permanantly ruined and the guy he ruined it for is nowhere to be found regarding support for him. Karma.

Energy Update: July 2023

July is a “5” Universal Month [7 (July) + 7 (2023) = 14 = 1 + 4 =5]. 5 is a very dynamic number that tends to represent a big change of course or point of conflict. This is represented in the astrology in the month as well as we experience multiple planetary shifts and our lunar nodes also shift signs during the month. There are a lot of moving pieces and it may be hard to find solid ground as we slip and slide our way into the beginning of summer.

The Set Up

We begin the month with the Sun and Mercury in Cancer, Venus and Mars in Leo, Jupiter Uranus and the North Node in Taurus, retrograde Saturn and Neptune in Pisces, and retrograde Pluto in Capricorn. By the end of July the Sun will have entered Leo, Mercury and Mars will have entered Virgo, and the lunar nodes will have entered Aries and Libra respectively. Additionally, Venus will retrograde in Leo.

For a month with relatively few aspects (number-wise), July is going to pack a punch. We will never be the same. This is, from the perspective of linear time, always true but in a month full of shifts and heavy hitters, some people may find their lives unrecognizable come August.

The Nitty Gritty

All eyes are on our lunar nodes and the number of strong aspects that they will make with the Sun, Mercury, and Mars over the course of the month ahead. When the lunar nodes (which always move retrograde – or backward – through the horoscope) switch signs, it is one of the big cosmic gong crashes that demarcate time. The lunar nodes represent the mathematical points in the sky with which the Sun, the Moon, and the Earth can come together to create eclipses. Our eclipse cycles ruled by Taurus and Scorpio are ending and we are entering the territory of Aries and Libra. The dichotomy of the individual “Me” versus the collective “We” will be at the forefront as we transverse this change during July. Expect these energies to reemerge later in the year as we enter eclipse season.

But first, we begin the month with Mercury cazimi as the Sun meets up with Mercury at 09° Cancer. The first will be a very inspired day as the Sun and Mercury also make a sweet sextile with Jupiter in Taurus. If you need to do some positive manifestation – particularly if it has to do with wealth or accumulation of things – this will be your day. This is a great day for intention setting or goal orienting of all kinds – remember to think big!

The weekend leading up to our full moon at 11° Capricorn on Monday is going to feel like a lot if you’re not ready for it. It might feel like a lot even if you are. Capricorn has been under a lot of pressure since the beginning of 2020 and is now dealing with Saturn, their planetary ruler, in retrograde and the recent ingress of Pluto backward into Capricorn from Aquarius. Sometimes we need to pay the piper. The sooner that we get up and do what needs doing, the easier this all will be. Saturn may be out to lunch but that doesn’t mean that you can skimp on the work – don’t say that I didn’t warn you. Venus in Leo will be square to Uranus in Taurus during this energy – this is the first pass of this aspect during Venus’ pre-retrograde shadow period. There may be some money troubles or overspending that needs accounting for. Paying the piper might be quite literal in this instance. Know that Venus will return square off with Uranus twice more: a second time while she moves backward during her retrograde cycle in August and a third time when she moves forward again come September. What is coming up now may be a portent of what’s to come. The week of 7/4 may be on the quiet side as we will only experience two Mercury aspects: a square with Chiron in Aries on 7/4 and a sextile with Uranus on 7/7. Use this downtime to integrate the energies of the weekend. Ground and center if you can. With Uranus involved, the energy is likely to be electric and some may find themselves unable to sleep or slow down. Heads up to those prone to mania or insomnia, this astrological weather is highly indicative or exasperating those types of problems.

On 7/10, we get our first big hit of the month on our lunar nodal energy as Mars enters Virgo and immediately forms a trine to our North Node in Taurus and a sextile to our South Node in Scorpio. Mars in Virgo can be fairly nitpicky and critical so some people may find their feelings hurt under this energy – especially, I suspect, if they are hiding from some part of themselves or their journey. Mercury enters Leo the very next day on Tuesday and squares off with the nodes as well which shows that things are going to get a bit testy. Be careful not to say something that you cannot take back as Mercury in Leo can be a bit tactless. The Sun in Cancer is also square to Chiron (exact on Wednesday), so old wounds are close to the surface.

The secret here is, as always, to use this energy to fix problems but when there is more than one person involved, there are no guarantees. Remember you cannot fix something with somebody who doesn’t think that a situation needs fixing, or somebody who isn’t willing to meet you halfway. Focus on healing yourself instead of trying to change others during this time, if you can. By the end of the week, the Sun in Cancer will be sextile to Uranus in Taurus – any Sun-Uranus aspect is a Red Flag Day; its worth remembering that Uranus is in Taurus and what bulls do with red flags.

Lie low for sure on Friday and maybe all week if you can. Unless all persons involved are willing to sit down and be honest and objective (Mars in Virgo), nothing will get done. Any important conversation that can wait probably should. And stay away from explosives of all kinds. Maybe especially explosive people. You know the ones.

This is all leading into a new moon at 24° Cancer on Monday 7/17 which is also the day that our lunar nodes switch from Taurus/Scorpio to Aries/Libra. Aries is sign #1 and hopelessly self-involved (by design, this is not a criticism) – we will all need to rectify how individuality impacts our own lives. The combination of new-ness of the day (new moon plus new lunar nodes) is a positive double-whammy for starting projects or just wiping the slate clean. Also note the cardinality of the day (Cancer, Aries, and Libra being three of the four cardinal signs) – go for it. Take active steps towards what you want to bring forth into this world.

Again, we get some downtime to process these shifts but things will heat up as we enter the weekend. The Sun in Cancer opposes retrograde Pluto in Capricorn on Friday along with Mercury in Leo meeting up in trine with Chiron in Aries. This is a revisitng of sorts – one which has some pain associated with it. Work your way through the pain rather than running from it – Mars in Virgo is opposed to retrograde Saturn in Pisces, this is your sign to stop avoiding that problem.

The Sun in Cancer squares off with the lunar nodes on Saturday the 22nd before entering Leo which shows that our egos might be getting in the way. Where can we think more big picture? Immature Leo energy can be very narcissistic and small-minded but we always get a choice. Try leaning into the Universal Heart energy of mature Leo and take a walk in somebody else’s shoes for an afternoon. I’m not saying that you have to try to empathize with that TERF next door, start with your partner, perhaps. Or somebody else that you care about. Where are you only thinking about yourself? Where are they only thinking about themselves?

Venus retrogrades at 28° Leo on Sunday 7/23 which is the other big event of the month. I wrote an entire post about this already but I will summarize by pointing out that Venus will make two squares to planets in Taurus (Jupiter and Uranus) and trines with Chiron in Aries. This is the time to do less – as in, don’t overdo it. The way that this will show up in personal lives will be different for everyone but some examples are: don’t jump too fast into new relationships (big R or little r), don’t overspend, don’t overeat or overdrink or insert your indulgence of choice here. You can read more about this Venus retrograde cycle here.

The last week of July will be quieter. Mercury will meet up with retrograde Venus on Thursday 7/27 – Mercury and Venus have been interacting in retrograde with each other since January of 2022. We need to learn to think and feel simultaneously – so many of us can only live in our hearts OR in our brains – we are being challenged to do both. Mercury makes an exact trine with our North Node in Aries on Friday but Venus never quite makes it – that’s telling. Thought is still winning. Where can you balance this by being more in your heart?

Mercury enters Virgo on Friday. Virgo is one of the two home signs of Mercury and is also home to our planet of action, Mars, during this time. This should give us some energy to do the work ahead of us for August and our Venus retrograde that is to come.

7/1 – Sun conjunct Mercury 09° Cancer, Sun in Cancer sextile Jupiter in Taurus, Mercury in Cancer sextile Jupiter in Taurus 7/2 – Venus in Leo square Uranus in Taurus 7/3 – Full moon 11° Capricorn 7/4 – Mercury in Cancer square Chiron in Aries 7/7 – Mercury in Cancer sextile Uranus in Taurus 7/10 – Mercury in Cancer opposed retrograde Pluto in Capricorn, Mars enters Virgo, Mars in Virgo trine North Node in Taurus, Mars in Virgo sextile South Node in Scorpio 7/11 – Mercury enters Leo, Mercury in Leo square North Node in Taurus and South node in Scorpio (fixed t-square) 7/12 – Sun in Cancer square Chiron in Aries 7/14 – Sun in Cancer sextile Uranus in Taurus 7/17 – New moon 24° Cancer, Mercury in Leo square Jupiter in Taurus, lunar nodes enter Aries/Libra 7/20 – Sun in Cancer trine Neptune in Pisces, Mars in Virgo opposed retrograde Saturn in Pisces 7/21 – Sun in Cancer opposed retrograde Pluto in Capricorn, Mercury in Leo trine Chiron in Aries 7/22 – Sun in Cancer square North Node in Aries and South Node in Libra (cardinal grand cross), Sun enters Leo 7/23 – Mercury in Leo square Uranus in Taurus, Venus retrogrades 28° Leo 7/27 – Mercury conjunct retrograde Venus 28° Leo 7/28 – Mercury in Leo trine North Node in Aries and sextile South Node in Libra, Mercury enters Virgo

The fashion was put together by Tom Eerebout and Sandra Amador with assistance by Kayla Manjarrez and Gianni Catalina.

The show also came with a handful of new visuals, including this one of LG enjoying a round of poker while wearing a dress Marilyn Monroe herself would approve.

The red sequined plunging stunner with halterneck, column skirt and flower belt detail is from Rodarte's Fall/Winter 2020 collection ($1,827).

In the same visual, she wears this absolutely divine plush black velvet column dress with deep nude illusion mesh panel and rows of pearl necklaces from Russian designer Kamilla Purshie’s Spring/Summer 2024 collection.

She topped it off with a new Arturo Rios Faux Grass white feather showgirl headpiece

Hell-o! Gaga brought out the best of Vegas' spirit appropriately decked out in the master of sexy dresswear: Zuhair Murad. And yes, this is the first time!

LG selected a sparkly fringe number fully embroidered in gold sequins and crystals of various sizes from the Lebanese designer's Fall/Winter 2022 Haute Couture collection, inspired by mystical arts, from Tarot and astrology to horoscopes and palmistry, to dispel the concerns of an unsettled age through the allure of their symbols.

She wore this augmented plummet shawl on stage, which was custom-made for her by Christian Cowan!

"Each ostrich feather plume was individually hand dyed to the warm tone of her exact Haus Labs shade of foundation, and curled to achieve a more dimensional effect before being embroidered individually by hand to a crinoline base also custom dyed to be her exact warm tone- all done in-house by our New York Atelier"

One of Gaga's most stunning Vegas-worn headpieces to date is another one-off-one bespoke Arturo Rios! This time: gold lamé leather orchid bouquet with large crystals peeking out between the leaves and buds.

She finished off with her previously-worn Jimmy Choo Anouk metallic gold pointed-toe pumps!

The finale look of the show sees Gaga wearing a bespoke Topo Studio NY plush black silk velvet gown with attached tails to the wrists, embroidered with over 400 cosmic crystals.

The fun feather headpiece with crystallized cap was custom-made for her by Binata Millinery.

For this look she wore Jimmy Choo's Romy black patent leather pointed-toe pumps.

Sidereal Scorpio Season 2023 🖤

The Sidereal Scorpio Sun falls on a 6 of Cups energy in Tarotstrology. Past energy will be coming up and it’s up to you to face your past for a better future. Things just don’t stop existing if you don’t clean it out. It festers and starts to infect what’s around it.

The Mars in Sidereal Scorpio is the era of the 5 of Cups in Tarotstrology. This is the time where life can be a downpour of expectations that didn’t exactly go the way we want them to. We can’t get upset about this. We have to learn to move forward with what we have and not what we don’t.

• 11/16, was the start of Sidereal Scorpio Season. Co-ruled by the Ketu, the Node of purging.

• Not only this but that day numerically started on a Personal 7, Universal 7 Day. 7 is a Ketu number.

• The says will also be falling in 1-9 and repeat sequences during the rest November. Following the cycles of life and death. You have ample chance to make things right.

Considering daylight was written in 2020? I’d guess more than likely. I kinda think he’s felt that way for a long time.

Do you think Daylight is a sm song because I’m confused about the cocaine part. Is it possible for you to shed some light on that part if you can?

Yeah I do think it is and OG nonnies may remember, correct me if I’m wrong, but I think I did an analysis on this song and I shared it and deleted it. I think it was my first song analysis? We talked about the light of day concept.

I'm on the roof, you're in your airplane seat

I’m high in the sky, but you’re even higher, I’m still and you’re moving, from my place on the roof I can almost see you in the airplane seat

I was nose-bleeding, looking for life out there

I was high up in the nose bleed sections, nose bleeds also happen at high altitudes and as a byproduct of cocaine or snorting drugs. He’s saying he was out here doing everything trying to figure out how to feel, he was “running with the thieves”

Reading your horoscope, you were just doing cocaine

Nod to spirituality, so they believe in some form of divine orchestration, are they reading their horoscope or is he reading their horoscope? He’s obscure on who is who. Is someone saying this to him? Was he just doing cocaine in his kitchen? Is he talking to himself? He also mentions cocaine in Keep Driving, there’s a theme of using drugs and alcohol and sex to feel. Could this possibly be a vision or he feels them when he’s alone doing cocaine, imagining what they’d be doing? “Harry you’re no good alone” “we’ll get the drinks in so I’ll get to thinking of her” I think it is torturous to him, loving from the outside, being aware and far away, I think it fucks with him. He tries to ease the pain in all these ways but the antidote is accepting it and loving them. He figured it out and now he’s trying to tell them the answer too. “You got the antidote” maybe now he knows they heard him in some ways, because of all the late night talking.

In my kitchen, you never listen, I hope you're missing me by now

You never listen is a theme he’s had in other songs “I told you but I know you never listen” “and I hope she hears me now” what does she never hear— “I’m still the only one who’s been in love with me”

“Kiss in the kitchen like it’s a dance floor” could what she’s not listening to be “I couldn’t want you anymore” and the thing is why does she never listen? He’s made multiple fucking albums at this point. Why do they have such deep communication issues “now I know what it’s like to fall in love from the outside” is this someone he physically cannot talk to? He’s tongue tied and can never truly explain how he feels “not telling his mates, wouldn’t know what to say” “we don’t talk enough” “I always think about you and how we don’t speak enough” “I’ve been trying hard not to talk to you” “do you wanna talk?” “I don’t want to talk to you” but this album we finally have “we’ve been doing all this late night talking”

hmmm my take… he knows what it looks like “get the picture, cut out my middle” “I know that you’re scared because I’m so open” but they still can’t see that all he wants is this one person, the person he wants can’t hear or see clearly why? Maybe because they can’t actually talk in person, only in daydreams or when inebriated, in shared memories and visions, his image says one thing, but his music says the other.

Ultimately he’s saying all this time I’ve been telling you all I want is you and you never listen, you still see me a certain way, I hope it’s dawning on you, I hope you’re getting the picture, I hope you’re missing me instead of pushing me away because you’re afraid. He’s begging his person to see all his growth, to listen carefully and he hopes they miss him as much as he misses them.

All his songs are SM songs to me.
