Sagittarius's and Gemini's Exaltation and Fall
I've noticed there isn't a lot of information online about how/why Sagittarius is exalted in the south node and fall in the north node and for Gemini vice versa. There can be some debate about this in certain practices.
South Node Exalted in Sagittarius: Sagittarius is famous for ideas around wisdom and philosophy which may at first seem more compatible with the North Node. However Sagittarius's zealous nature can root them in a stagnant comfort that doesn't want to challenge their beliefs. Their pride, selfishness, and potential limited experiences can hold them back in growth. The South Node is all about what we are comfortable with and this can encompass strengths and weaknesses. The South Node is comfortable in one's self and morals which is a great power for any individual. While the South Node is all about what we may need to leave behind, about our karma, Sagittarius's natural curiosity and depth allows the South Node to shine in terms of survival and being. There can be contentment, natural worth, and meaning in understanding and embracing the past or what is.
North Node Fall in Sagittarius: The NN in Sagittarius can feel overwhelmed in their quest for greater knowledge and purpose. Overconfidence in themselves or beliefs may cause frustration when confronted with uncomfortable growth or challenges. Sagittarius's need to anticipate the future can also present them with many disappointments. Sagittarius's impulsiveness and hard to satisfy nature can make this placement harder. Biting off more than they can chew may be the best way to describe the fall. But the lessons/wisdom this placement learns should truly be cherished and honestly, probably recorded for others.
North Node Exalted in Gemini: Gemini's curiosity can sometimes be more childlike or unassuming than Sagittarius's fiery and passionate pursuit of knowledge. This can help the North Node's expression. Their ability to listen and understand others, their appreciation for different kinds of connections helps pave the path for growth and change. Here Gemini looks for truth in people and in themselves vs. abstract ideas, beliefs, spirituality, religion, or ethics like Sagittarius might. Gemini's flexibility helps them to embrace the many choices of life and to step out of one's comfort zone often. (while Sagittarius is also flexible, they hold a clarity or honorable goal that Gemini might not.) Gemini in the NN learns to be open-minded, to express itself with confidence, and to view change positively.
South Node Fall in Gemini: The lack of focus and depth that comes with Gemini can cause the SN to often feel uncomfortable or insecure. The SN is what is comfortable, one's initial response or you could maybe look at this as one's programming, reaction, and stagnation. Gemini in the SN can be scattered, restless, and undisciplined never feeling quite at home, misunderstood by others, or feel disconnected to themselves. Their attachment to logic and intellect can be a great strength. They may feel most comfortable in situations that require logic, facts, and intellectual engagement. However, they may struggle when life demands deeper emotional or spiritual insight.
Because Sagittarius - Gemini are polar opposites, if you have one placement, you have the other. Which means you must navigate having one node exalted and the other fall.
Here are other posts about exaltation, fall, and some detriment planets.

Exalted isn't just a game for perverts who like lore, it's for absolute sickoes who like lore that's backed up by game mechanics.

ok. listen. it鈥檚 about your girlfriend. you know how we thought she was a crop-blighting witch and we were planning to stone her? so, here鈥檚 the thing. every stone we threw drew not blood but like, the black and fathomless rage of a race of titans that were once slain but could not die. and she like, rose from her hastily-shoveled roadside grave as their resubstantiated champion or something. yeah, we鈥檙e suffering the onslaught of her vengeance right now. yeah. I guess we inadvertently created that which we had so feared. yeahh. could you like, answer her texts and ask if she鈥檒l stop sloughing our flesh with her baleful gaze every time she sees us. thx in advance

I know Exalted 3rd Edition is just using "uncountable" as a game-mechanical term of art because saying "infinite" would clash tonally, but I kind of love the idea that some baddies can punch you so hard that they inflict a non-countably infinite number of levels of damage. I'm not sure what inflicting non-countably infinite damage would look like in practice, but I'd like to see it.

Abyssal exalted, as part of their dark bargain, can no longer use their living name. Instead, they must choose a new one from the following list:
Ol Boney' Bob
Susan "Spooks" McGee
Timmy Ghoulson Jr.
Bloodspiller Betty (of the Bloodspiller Betties)
Miss Murder Margret
Dr. Bonejangles
If they use any other name they immediately die. This is canon to all editions of Exalted, if the books say otherwise they're wrong.

I don't really have a dog in this race as I'm very happy with my current TTRPG experiences and not looking to make any changes.
But y'all throwing tantrums about people wanting to play or mod D&D instead of trying other systems are not making it a very attractive prospect. I mean, the very way you express it comes off as insulting to your target audience, like if only they weren't so dumb and stubborn they'd be willing to try something else.
I've always been willing to try something new when someone's like "Hey, I'm running a game of [x], wanna join?" But I'm generally not willing to spend time with people who insult one of my favorite hobbies and act like I'm dumb for liking it. It's honestly a huge turn off.
And frankly, I've tried a few other TTRPGs and I still liked D&D 5E better than any of them. 5E is my least favorite version of D&D but it's still really fun. So the implication that if I could only bring myself to try something else I'd see what a fool I've been this whole time is just kind of dismissive.

Okay Exalted Tumblr, I think we need to start up a sibling rivalry with Vampire Tumblr. Maybe all of WoD Tumblr if we're feeling spicy but Vampire fans first and foremost.
They're our weird older sibling or like super goth cousin who's cool to hang out at the family gathering and will totally let you smoke and not tell your mom.
Idk how we go about this. I just think we should. But I want it to be loving! This is not at all malicious!
@raiasintended I know you have that menace in you help me out here
