Venus Nakshatras And Their Partners 🌹

*Disclaimer- These are just observations you may not think this applies to you or the people you know and that’s ok✨ please be kind and if you don’t agree or like this post just ignore it.

Venusians relationships are very flirtatious and affectionate, however, they must be aware to not come off too clingy. They are the type to never stop dating their partner even after marriage. Venusians are so supportive of their partners and any endeavors that they try to pursue, think of them as your personal cheerleader! Another thing I notice is that they find themselves dating or marrying someone who is different from them (race/ethnicity, age, or status), which could make people surprised they’re dating them. For the most part, their relationships are lowkey you don’t really find them in drama. They also seem to love the company of their significant other. Overall, Venusians tend to have fulfilling partnerships that could lead to marriage or just something very long term.

Examples:

-Dylan Minnete (Purva Ashadha Sun) & Isabella Elei

-Monica Belluci (Purva Ashadha ASC) & Vincent Cassel

-Jasmine Tookes (Purva Phalguni Moon) & Juan David Borrero

-Zoe Kravitz (Purva Phalguni Moon, AK) & Channing Tatum

-Salma Hayek (Purva Phalguni Sun & ASC) & François-Henri Pinault

-Jason Momoa (Purva Phalguni Sun) & Lisa Bonet

-Kelly Ripa (Purva Phalguni ASC) & Mark Consuelos

-Cher (Purva Ashadha Moon) & Alexander Edwards

-Adele (Bharani Sun) & Rich Paul

*Note- a couple of the celebrities have unknown birth time*

Sorry, bro. But this is always what happens when an old billionaire marries a younger, beautiful woman without a pre-nup.

There was an entire Addams family movie about this.

Rousseau VS Robespierre’s dad in a Worst Father Ever contest?

Asking the right question here. Let the people decide!

Propaganda:

1. François de Robespierre

The epitome of a dead-beat dad

Abandoned his 4 children not long after their mother died in childbirth and never returned

Possibly left the eldest son traumatised by feeling like he has to assume responsibility for his siblings

2. Jean-Jacques Rousseau

Had his mistress give up all the 5 children they had together and put them into an orphanage right after giving birth

Said he had 'no other choice' despite the fact that he stayed with the children's mother long after that and eventually ended up marrying her anyway

Didn't agree on having the children adopted by his benefactress instead of giving them to the orphanage

After the first one, he didn't leave the children with a monogram so he could potentially take them back after his material conditions improved

Said that he felt guilty about what he has done but that the real villain of the story were his friends who shared the information with the public

Ended up writing a hugely influential book on how to best raise children and see to their education (later claimed that he 'almost confessed' to the orphanage story in Émile itself though)

File them under "canon straight couple I'm weirdly obsessed with"

(headcanon rambling under the cut)

Ok I've been thinking about Spy and Scout's Ma SOOOO much. Woe, headcanons be upon ye:

To start with, their names are François Donadieu and Rose Cusack. They never married, but have been in a committed relationship for 23 years as of 1968

François is four years younger than Rose, they met in 1944 when he was 22 and she was 26, while she was working as a waitress.

Spy had been sent to speak with an informant who, unbeknownst to Spy, was going to doublecross him. After giving him bad information, the informant poisoned his coffee when he was distracted, which Rose noticed. Unable to think of anything else, she spilled his coffee on him to prevent François from being killed. When she brought him another mug, she also gave him a note to explain. He took her to dinner afterwards to show his appreciation.

She didn't tell him about her children until their 3rd date, terrified that her being a widow and single mother, with the majority of her children born out of wedlock, would be a major deal breaker. It was, in fact, a bonus, as Spy had always wanted a large family

Spy immediately stepped into a doting father role to her sons, and remained so until Jeremy was around 4. He will freely admit to his beloved that these were the best years of his life

His leaving the family came after a hit was issued on them that he only barely managed to thwart. He and Rose mutually agreed that it would be safest if he kept a distance from his family. François' only contact with them was to send money home, watch from afar in disguise, and occasionally rendezvous with Rose

Bonus Scout related headcanons that are still relevant:

Scout gets his buck teeth and green eyes from Spy (who has had work done on his teeth ((thats even canonical)) and has partial green/hazel heterochromia in both eyes). Rose misses her beau's natural charming smile, and is secretly happy that Jeremy inherited it.

Meetings with Spy leave a very distinct cigarette smell on Rose, which Jeremy recognizes and hates. The idea that some asshole is putting the moves on his ma pisses him off. As such, he hates that scent and Spy by extension (pre-spydad reveal)

Rose is somewhat ditsy and Spy is arrogant. Jeremy was cursed with the dumbest parts of both parents. François is deeply disappointed in this

Love and Marriage

I don't know if people have already written about this, but Carmy and Syd are portrayed as though they are symbolically married, bound together by this restaurant. The Bear portrays:

Infatuation: the blood hamachi dish. Moments like from films like Casablanca: "Of all the gin joints, in all the towns, in all the world, she walks into mine."

Courtship: the Thom Browne chef jacket

Cheating: Claire (Fatal Attraction, LOL)

Birth: the fire suppression test

Marriage: the partnership agreement, consult your lawyer first!

They have even made a family and created a legacy together (Marcus and Tina).

They are now in the separation stage (irreconcilable differences, or no?).

It reminds me of François Truffaut's movies about Antoine Doinel (400 Blows, Stolen Kisses, Bed and Board, Love on the Run - which also features trains and are semi-autobiographical, btw) and his life through relationships and marriage. I'm also getting some of Kubrick's Eye's Wide Shut in S3 and themes of obsession, frustration, fidelity, and the subconscious.

Personally, I'm hoping things go more like the ending of Eyes Wide Shut.

The Bear is actually a love story and a sex comedy. This show has sex on the brain, it just doesn't show it.

Tom Sturridge as François Clicquot in “Widow Clicquot.”

“Compared with Barbe-Nicole, however, it seems François was sensitive and moody, and she must also have noticed immediately the way in which his mother and father coddled him. She soon understood why. He could be cheerful and energized one moment and apparently turn melancholy and despairing the next. This was a side of her husband she would not have expected. Despite the close connections between their families, she had not seen much of him for several years.”

———————

“François's letters home from 1792 to 1794 are filled with patriotic zeal. He had a romantic view of war and was naturally an idealist. He was also apparently prone to illness and more worryingly to depression. Philippe wrote urgent letters to his son in Switzerland, reminding François of his "weak temperament" and history of hernias. In other letters, he begged his son to fight melancholy and eat well. There was a darker side to François's ebullient personality that his parents knew only too well.”

———————

“But even if she did not realize it yet, she and François were essentially mismatched in at least one fundamental way. She had inherited all her father's and Philippe's ruthless pragmatism and keen business instincts. Barbe-Nicole, however, had married a dreamer. And he had his heart set on the wine business.”

yuri recs 1,2,3 GO!

AH FINALLY MY TIME HAS COME

first and foremost, i have to recommend the best yuri ever written (in my opinion):

I’m in Love with the Villainess! this is an absolutely incredible story about an office worker, Rei Ohashi, who gets reborn into the world of her favorite otome game Revolution! now, as the protagonist Rae Taylor, she courts the villainess of the game Claire François! while this seems like a typical isekai story, it is anything but. there’s plenty of twists and turns along the way, and it’s filled with honest conversations about being gay, trans, and so much more! i highly recommend you start with the light novels because they are beautiful!! additionally, the author, Inori-sensei, is a trans lesbian. so you know these conversations are coming from a genuine place!!

next i’d recommend Whisper Me a Love Song!! this is a cute adorable slice-of-life yuri about a school girl, Himari Kino, falling in love with her senpai (and lead singer of the local band SSGirls), Yori Asanagi! Yori and Himari are absolutely adorable together and they are truly wonderful!!

i would also recommend Citrus/Citrus+! those of you who know enough yuri manga probably know this one, for one specific detail. however, for those not in the know, i’ll give a rundown! Yuzu Aihara is a high school gyaru who is excited to get a boyfriend this semester (even tho she’s goes to an all girls school), but she quickly falls in love with the student council president, Mei! on top of figuring out her feelings for another girl, there’s one more complication… Mei is Yuzu’s new step sister! this story follows Yuzu and Mei as they overcome their communication issues and find love in each other (and get married)! it’s a very sweet story and i really highly recommend it!

also, if you’re looking for something a bit more… adult, i’d highly recommend Asumi-chan is Interested in Lesbian Brothels! Asumi is a college girl who wants to find her long lost childhood crush, Mai. her friend told her that she’s seen her around! trouble is, Mai works at a lesbian brothel. so now Asumi must make repeated visits to the brothel in order to track her down (and have a bit of fun on the side~)! while this may seem like it’ll just be “porn without plot” so to speak, this story is genuinely very endearing and funny, plus the art is super cute and good! so not only are you getting expertly drawn adult scenes, but also adorable scenes on top of that!

there’s plenty more i could recommend, but those are some of my personal favorites! i’d also recommend checking out The Magical Revolution of the Reincarnated Princess and the Genius Young Lady if you want a fun fantasy isekai and Otherside Picnic if you want spooky yuri with terrifying monsters! enjoy reading!!

Saint John the Baptist Preaching in the Desert

Artist: Jean Baptiste Henri Deshays (French, 1729–1765)

Date: c. 1758–1764

Medium: Oil on Canvas

Collection: Art Institute of Chicago, Chicago, IL, United States

Description

A precocious talent, Jean-Baptiste Deshays married the daughter of Rococo artist François Boucher and became his protégé. Although best known as a painter of religious subjects, Deshays often employed the soft, highly fluid manner that Boucher used for his amorous “boudoir” pictures. In fact, this work was for a long time believed to be by Boucher. The subject of the painting derives from the Gospel of Matthew: seated before the multitude and with arms dramatically outstretched, John the Baptist warns, “Repent ye, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”

Overview over the Brodies' House, real and imagined rooms

I'm using Harbour Village as Edinburgh, and when I first set a scene in Philipp's house in 1745, I just built the living-room into one of the three-unit houses that make up the world. You can still see the three back-stairs. Realistically, the house shouldn't be so broad and have more floors stacking up instead. But I didn't expect that storyline to grow so much. I kept furnishing rooms as I went along.

The living-room hasn't changed much over the years, except for the piano being added. The round table can be moved in and out as needed. The small adjoining room was used by Rosalie, Fergus, Marianne and now Eppie. Oh, and Alice slept there on her wedding-night for reasons of propriety.

The main bedroom existed since Philipp's time as a widower. It hasn't changed much either. Rosalie gave it up to the married couple, so it's Roseanne's and Nicolas' room now. Then there's this awkward thoroughfare room in front of the bedroom. This one is shared by André and François now. André got Philipp's desk, but there's not much space for anything else. It used to be an emergency guest-room and used as such by Louise here and here.

The top right corner room first figured as Eppie's "haunted room". It was briefly used as a guest-room for Fiona and Fergus. Supposedly it became Richard's room later, but we never saw that. It's now shared by Rosalie and Marianne. The beds in this part are mismatched on purpose. Proper furniture was expensice, and I imagine Rosalie repurposed several sofas.

In the lower right corner is what used to be Eppie's and later Jon's room, then Philipp's office and now Béatrice's and Lucie's room. Again with two sofa-beds. Only Thérèse didn't get a space in the main house. She's assumed to sleep in a servant's room in the attic (which doesn't technically exist). Given her background and the fact that she's not related to the family, she wouldn't want anything more fancy.

On the ground floor is the kitchen, which we've only seen once. Next to it is the dininig room, on which I always keep the curtains closed to disguise that it's on the ground-floor. The pantry was never meant to be seen at all, not sure why I put those cupboards there. The front room and the big space where everyone resets to are supposedly where the school is. So far we've only seen the window of the front room.

Life and Fate of Sophie Momoro, née Fournier, and Her Childrens According to Certain Information

Festival of Reason where Sophie Momoro played a key role during certain ceremonies

Sophie Fournier was born in 1766 in Auxerre, where her family was involved in the creation of printing typefaces. Her grandfather had purchased the Blé foundry, one of the most important in France. On her mother’s side, the Gando family specialized in printing typefaces for musical scores.

Given her family’s professions, it was natural for Sophie Fournier to cross paths with Antoine François Momoro, a printer. They married on January 18, 1786, and on December 13, their only child, Jean-Antoine Momoro, was born. Antoine-François Momoro was initially a cautious revolutionary in 1789 but later dedicated himself fully to the cause until his arrest and execution. Although Sophie remained in the background, it is believed she remained loyal to her husband during his most difficult times, such as his arrest following the Champ de Mars massacre in 1791.

It wasn’t until late 1793 that Sophie Momoro began to play a public political role. On November 10, 1793, during the Festival of Reason, a woman portrayed the Goddess of Reason, wearing a Phrygian cap and carried on a stretcher by men. Patriotic songs echoed throughout the event. There is some doubt about whether Sophie played the role of the Goddess of Reason during this ceremony (some think it was Maillard, an opera actress, or Mademoiselle Aubry). However, Duquesne notes that since the ceremony was presided over by Antoine François Momoro, it is highly probable that it was Sophie Momoro.

On December 5, 1793, at the Temple of Reason, Sophie Momoro was clearly identified as the Goddess of Reason, playing an important role in the de-Christianization campaigns. Sophie was carried on a stretcher, then placed on a platform, with the crowd proceeding to the Convention. On the way back, she was again placed on a stretcher, but due to someone losing balance, she fell and broke her arm. Another notable event during the ceremony involved the impromptu burning of wooden statues of Saint Sulpice and Saint Peter. The president of the Mucius Scaevola section (formerly the Luxembourg section) Ceyrat declared, "If this God exists, let him thunder and strike me down with a bolt of his thunder!" When no thunder struck, he concluded, "He does not thunder, therefore his existence is a chimera."

Despite her injury, Sophie continued to participate in similar ceremonies of dechristianization . When portraying the Goddess of Reason, she would reportedly wear white and carry a pike (considering the struggle for revolutionary women to bear arms, this shows a certain determination on Sophie’s part).

One of Sophie Momoro’s other political actions was presiding over a reconciliation between former Catholic priests and Protestants. According to Jean-Pierre Duquesne, she was surrounded by "two or three hundred young girls dressed in white, beautiful to behold, with provocative looks, low-cut dresses, and crowned with oak leaves." During this de-Christianization ceremony, it was declared that the two religions had only survived through "clerical charlatanism according to theirs words. Thus, Sophie not only supported her husband but also demonstrated significant militancy herself, like many wives of revolutionaries who remain too often in the shadow of their husbands.

However, this marked the beginning of the end for her marriage. Following his involvement in an attempted insurrection and the complex context of 1794 with factional struggles, Antoine François Momoro was executed as part of the "Exaggerated" faction alongside Charles Philippe Ronsin, Jacques René Hébert, François-Nicolas Vincent, and others. He was falsely accused, among other things, of attempting to sabotage supplies and was allegedly (likely falsely) claimed to have amassed 190,000 livres, despite being known as an incorruptible revolutionary who lived very modestly. The saddest part is that, although he died bravely, his heart must have been broken knowing that his wife had been arrested and risked following him to the guillotine.

In prison, Sophie Momoro was inconsolable when she learned of her husband’s death from a man named Jean Baptiste Laboureau, who escaped the Hébertist execution by implicating, among others, Antoine-François Momoro. Laboureau’s remarks were either highly insensitive or downright cruel: "The Goddess of Reason was not at all reasonable; during the day, she lamented greatly over the accident that happened to her husband." Unlike Marie-Françoise Goupil and Lucile Desmoulins, she was not executed. Sophie Momoro was released on May 27, 1794, but was left without means and had to raise her son alone. Since Momoro was not rehabilitated ( and he will never be), she could not request the return of his assets, and even so, her husband had left very little inheritance. On August 25, 1794, she requested financial assistance and the return of Antoine-François Momoro’s printing presses. Both requests were denied by the State.

There is a point of divergence between Jean-Pierre Duquesne and Albert Mathiez. In 1795, a family council appointed Sophie Momoro as her son’s guardian. However, Momoro’s father was appointed as substitute guardian. According to Albert Mathiez, Momoro’s father, a shoemaker, had died before his son’s execution. Mathiez stated, "At that time, Momoro’s father, who had worked as a shoemaker, was already dead. But his mother, who had taken a job as a servant after her husband's death, was still alive." According to reports from the commissioners of the Besançon district, Momoro’s mother died shortly after her son, likely of grief. The report reads: "Today, Germinal 11, Year II of the Republic, at eleven o'clock in the morning, we, Jean François Denisot, member of the general council of the Besançon district, appointed by order of the same district on this day to affix seals at the home of the mother of the named Momoro, who has just suffered the death penalty in Paris, and having with us François-Joseph Bernard as our secretary clerk, we went to the home of citizen Forno, a war commissioner, where the said Momoro was a cook. There, we invited citizen Forno to show us the room of the said Momoro, to which she replied that she had died the previous night but was ready to introduce us to the room she occupied." I believe Momoro’s father was alive, and Albert Mathiez likely made an error, but it is possible that the opposite is true.

Sophie Momoro remarried on November 7, 1796, to a military man named Jacques-Marie Botot, who had been appointed commander of the Seine gendarmerie in 1793 (one of his apparent roles was escorting the former Queen of France, Marie Antoinette, to the scaffold). In 1795, he was appointed brigade leader. Together, they had a daughter in 1798 named Stéphanie Joséphine Adèle. Sophie’s mother also came to live with the couple and their children. However, the marriage began to falter. With the rise of Bonaparte, who was suspicious of Jacques-Marie Botot, he was appointed brigadier general and retired by the First Consul. Some accused Botot of becoming difficult and bitter in their marriage, while others believed it was due to Sophie taking a lover, the architect Jean Joseph Clotilde Lelouche. According to Georges Lenôtre, Botot’s disgrace precipitated the end of their marriage: personally, I don’t think there is any evidence of opportunism on Sophie’s part. After all, it seems she remained faithful to Momoro even in the hardest times. Perhaps Botot’s bitterness over his disgrace under Bonaparte, combined with Sophie taking a lover, led to their incompatibility over the long term. Sophie retained custody of her son, while Botot retained custody of their daughter.

Sophie moved in with Lelouche and gave birth to a daughter in 1806 named Joséphine-Clotilde-Sophie. Although he never married her, Lelouche acknowledged his daughter. However, when Sophie died two years later, it was not her lover who reported her death, but her son, Jean-Antoine. Apparently, she and her son were facing new financial difficulties. Another strange fact: despite her civil status clearly stating she was a widow of Momoro and divorced from Botot, Jacques Marie Botot did not mention his divorce status in his civil records, even though she had been dead for 14 years.

Despite their parents’ divorce, Stéphanie Joséphine Adèle Botot seems to have remained close to her brother, Jean-Antoine Momoro. She died on January 15, 1860. Joséphine Clotilde Sophie married a history painter on February 4, 1830, named Henri Louis Hippolyte Poterle.

Jean-Antoine Momoro never abandoned his mother, and it seems clear he never renounced his father and remained proud of his parents. He always signed his name as Momoro-Fournier in the registers. This was bold, as Momoro was never rehabilitated, and in some cases, family members temporarily abandoned the family names of unrehabilitated revolutionaries (understandably so, as life must have been hard enough for them), but he also signed with his mother’s surname. He always lived in the neighborhoods where his father had been active when he was in Paris. He worked as a civil servant. According to Joseph Marie Quérard, he was an "assistant chief at the Ministry of Public Works" and a "playwright" with three comedies, though it is unclear if they were published or simply performed. He married a woman from Nantes named Séraphine Emilie Nicolas, and they had a daughter, Marie-Adélaide, who married a postal worker. Jean-Antoine Momoro died in 1868.

P.S.: I mentioned some similarities and differences between Camille Desmoulins and Antoine-François Momoro in this post: Camille Desmoulins and Antoine-François Momoro. It seems that their sons (Horace-Camille Desmoulins and Jean-Antoine Momoro) also had in common a sense of pride in their parents.

Among her best-known roles was that of the heroine in The Loves of Bastien and Bastienne, 1753, in which she inspired a revolution in theatrical costume by wearing authentic peasant dress. Drouais’s portrait of her seated at a harpsichord recalls traditional representations of Saint Cecilia, patron saint of music.

Ok so like, y’all already know how much I hate ppl interpreting the binding of Hera as Hephaestus being an incel who only did it to marry Aphrodite, especially if they use the François Vase as evidence, bc it could literally be interpreted as anything and this theory is such a huge stretch, I won’t repeat my points here (maybe I’ll reblog them idk)

But lately I’ve been thinking about it again, y’know how the timeline is inconsistent and messy in mythology? How sometimes Hermes sends wedding invites for Zeus and Hera’s wedding even tho he is supposed to be born after the marriage? Now Hephaestus is either thrown off Mount Olympus as a baby or as an adult, so who’s to say that Aphrodite wasn’t married to him before his fall? Not after it? I can’t think of anything confirming or denying “when” they got married.

What if instead of Zeus starting a challenge for Aphrodite’s hand in marriage (which literally has zero evidence) what the François Vase is actually referencing is Aphrodite receiving her husband as he returns home?

What happened to Arno Victor Dorian after the events of Unity and Dead Kings ?

Following Elise's death at the end of Assassin's Creed Unity, Arno falls into a deep depression, finding little to live for.

He is also no longer part of the French Brotherhood.

In the DLC "Dead Kings", Arno is contacted by Marquis de Sade, who tasks him with finding a manuscript in the tomb of Louis IX.

Reluctantly, Arno agrees to this mission, and travels to Saint Denis to find the manuscript. During his search, Arno meets a young thief named Leon.

While the two work together, Leon's perspective on the world starts to break through Arno's grief, slowly showing him that there is more to live than the tragedies he's faced in his past.

What happened after Dead King is in the O.Bowden's novel.

I don't like his novels.

I will not summarise Oliver Bowden's novel.

But in the final chapters Arno found Elise's journal, and also Jennifer Scott Kenway's letters, where Elise requested him to seek unity for the two Orders.

It didn't go well obviously.

Arno rejoined the French assassins but we don't know when or how.

I have few theories:

Arno was extremely talented as an Assassin and his skills were too valuables

The Brotherhood forgive him after Germain's death and the rescue of the sword of Eden

The french assassins saw Napoleon's increasing influence over France and they need Arno to keep an eye on him. They became allies even though Napoleon's ideas were closer to those of the Templars.

Over the years, Arno earned the rank of Master Assassin and eventually the rank of Mentor (but he wasn't a bureaucrat as Mirabeau).

He took Leon under his wing and adopted him. At first Leon was wary of calling him "Father".

Arno presumably got married and had other children, as he is directly related to Callum Lynch, the protagonist of the Assassin's Creed movie*. Arno made a brief appearance in the movie.

He named one of his children Charles (or Charlotte) after his father and another François (or Françoise) after Monsieur de la Serre.

Did Arno and Ratonhnhaké:ton ever met ? (Reminder: Ratonhnhaké:ton is only twelve years older than Arno)

I think that Ratonhnhaké:ton became aware of Arno's actions during the French Revolution. They may have exchanged letters but they never met in person (and Connor had a big family to took care of and a very sweet daughter who was gifted by the spirits).

Did Arno find out who killed his father?

YES

He knew about Shay but he didn't hunt him down because revenge only leads to a bad path (and probably he thought that Shay was already dead which could be true).

Did Arno met Ethan Frye? Yes, it's possible due to the proximity of the French and english's brotherhood. Arno should be around 65/70 yo (if he was still alive).

We don't know when or how Arno died because Ubisoft never gave us answers (again)

I think that Arno passed away before the birth of the Frye twins, in 1847.

*I have a theory:

AC Unity should have been the gateway to a new present with Callum Lynch (and his ancestors like Aguilar de Nerha) as a new protagonist. But the movie has been a complete disaster so Ubisoft abandoned the idea.
