Emotional Security is based on The Moon 🌙

wherever you have your moon in your houses, you’ll have to abide by that houses energy to find true security emotionally within. Each house Broken Down Below.

————————

Moon in the 1st House

Emotional security comes from letting yourself feel what you feel in real time. You stabilize when you stop masking your mood and show up fully. You’re safest when you allow your emotions to guide your identity, not fight against them.

You feel secure within when you honor every emotion as part of who you are and let your presence reflect your truth.

Moon in the 2nd House

You find emotional security by building internal value. You feel safest when you trust your worth is solid and not dependent on what you give. Steady comforts and physical grounding bring you back to center when your heart feels scattered.

You feel secure within when you trust that your value is constant and doesn’t depend on anyone else’s response.

Moon in the 3rd House

Emotional safety comes from expression. You need to talk things out, write it down, or share your thoughts to feel understood. Connection through communication is your comfort. Silence breeds doubt, but dialogue brings peace.

You feel secure within when your mind has space to speak freely and you don’t censor your thoughts to keep the peace.

Moon in the 4th House

You feel emotionally secure when you have a strong sense of home within. Your peace grows through self-nurturing and honoring your past. When you let yourself feel deeply without judgment, safety returns. You are your own sanctuary.

You feel secure within when you create emotional safety for yourself instead of waiting for others to provide it.

Moon in the 5th House

Emotional security comes from joy and full expression. You feel safe when your inner child has room to breathe. Creativity, play, and love without performance help you regulate. Let yourself be emotionally loud, messy, and alive.

You feel secure within when you allow yourself to create and express without fearing how you’ll be received.

Moon in the 6th House

You stabilize emotionally when your world is in order. Acts of service and daily care restore your peace. Routines are your medicine. You feel safest when you’re useful, but not overworked. Your emotions need structure, not suppression.

You feel secure within when you give your emotions a rhythm to move through, not a cage to shrink inside.

Moon in the 7th House

You feel emotionally secure when you’re emotionally mirrored. Peace comes from balanced, honest partnerships where you’re not alone in your feelings. But you also have to give yourself the validation you often wait for from others.

You feel secure within when you become your own best partner and give yourself the empathy you seek.

Moon in the 8th House

Emotional security only comes through depth. You need raw, vulnerable truth to feel at peace. Surface comfort never lasts. Your safety grows when you face your shadows and choose to trust those who see you completely.

You feel secure within when you stop hiding your pain and begin to see it as a source of strength, not shame.

Moon in the 9th House

You feel emotionally secure when your spirit is expanding. Learning, freedom, and belief help regulate your heart. You need space to grow and something greater to believe in. Trust that your emotions evolve with your perspective.

You feel secure within when you trust your journey and let your emotions travel instead of staying stuck.

Moon in the 10th House

You find emotional security through responsibility and achievement. When your inner world feels reflected in your outer success, peace settles in. But you have to learn to separate emotional worth from public approval. Build from the soul.

You feel secure within when you define success by how aligned you feel, not by how others react to your image.

Moon in the 11th House

You feel emotionally secure when you belong. Community, friendship, and shared vision help regulate your feelings. You need people who hold space for your mind and heart. Isolation erodes you. Emotional safety is found in connection.

You feel secure within when you surround yourself with people who understand your heart, not just your ideas.

Moon in the 12th House

Emotional security comes through solitude, spirituality, and surrender. Your emotions live in deep waters and need quiet to be understood. Peace finds you when you let go of control and allow yourself to rest inside the unseen.

You feel secure within when you honor your emotional cycles and give yourself sacred space to just be

My Vampire

pairing: hannigram x male reader tags: reader is a vampire, takes place after they fall off the cliff, nursing back to health, hannigram feel jealous, but everything is resolved, just something silly I came up with

You’d never planned on crossing paths with Hannibal Lecter and Will Graham. In truth, you avoided humans whenever possible, preferring the deep shadows of the forest and the quiet hours of the night to any bustling crowds. But that unspoken, secret life you lead—sustained by blood and centuries of solitude—proved itself impossible to hide when you found the two men collapsed at the rocky bottom of a steep cliff.

In the silvery glow of the moon, you saw them: Hannibal, impeccably dressed even in disarray, and Will, painfully crumpled, a halo of curly hair matted with blood. They had fallen—or been driven—off the edge. Your acute hearing picked up the faint beating of two frantic hearts. Against your better judgment, you acted swiftly.

The moonlight guided you as you carried both unconscious men to the safety of your home, deep in the forest. Turning on the lights revealed modest furniture, shelves of ancient texts, and the paraphernalia you’d collected over centuries: strange artifacts, historical relics, a few odd trinkets you found comforting in your long life.

You prepared beds for them in separate rooms. First, you stabilized Hannibal—a fractured rib, sprained wrist, cuts along his temple. More concerning was Will: several bruises, probable concussion, shock. With careful touches, you cleaned and dressed their wounds. Under the same roof with two delicate, thrumming pulses—it took everything in you to keep a tight leash on your most primal instinct. But you did. You always did.

Their condition demanded something more than standard human medication. You whispered ancient incantations under your breath, letting the faint threads of supernatural energy flow from your fingertips to their broken bones. Even as your thirst roared, you continued your strange, secretive healing, pressing over bruises and fractures with hands that never seemed to warm.

Days passed. You listened to the soft stutter of Will’s pulse and the steady cadence of Hannibal’s. At first, they roused only in fleeting moments, eyes glassy, speech slurred. You offered them water and soups thick with herbs that carried subtle restorative properties. They ate without protest, too weak to question anything. Eventually, Hannibal’s eyes found yours in the dimness of his room.

“You saved us,” he murmured, voice quiet yet controlled. There was a ripple of curiosity beneath the gratitude. You simply gave a small bow of your head, your lips curving in a gentle, almost secretive smile. He studied you: your unnaturally still posture, the unearthly pallor of your skin that seemed to glow faintly in the low light. You turned away from his searching gaze, easing a blanket higher over his chest with a careful gesture. There were questions you expected, but for now, Hannibal simply closed his eyes, content to rest in your presence.

Will took longer to regain consciousness, drifting in and out of feverish dreams. When he finally startled awake, he looked around with wide blue eyes, instantly on edge. You carefully stepped forward so he could see you—a kind face, arms raised in a gesture of peace.

“It’s all right,” you soothed, voice soft and resonant. “You’re safe here.”

His gaze flickered around, searching. “Hannibal?” he asked, voice tight with concern.

“He’s here as well,” you reassured him, stepping aside so he could see the figure through the open doorway. “He’s recovering.”

Will’s tension ebbed, replaced by relief. He slumped back onto the bed, nodding to himself. Then, quietly: “You saved our lives.”

You nodded, pressing a cloth damp with cool water against his forehead. “I did what needed to be done.”

Over the next several days, you stayed close, quietly tending to their needs. You brought them more comforting meals, teas laced with your own subtle magic, and changed their bandages as their injuries healed at a pace slightly faster than normal humans—your clandestine influence, though you never openly acknowledged it. As Hannibal and Will grew stronger, the two men observed you in unspoken unison. They’d share glances from across a room, as though exchanging telepathic notes about you. Eventually, curiosity overcame them.

One afternoon, while preparing more of your herb-laced soup in the cabin’s small kitchen, you found yourself under Hannibal’s direct stare. The man approached with a measured step, Will close behind. “I’m not one to look a gift horse in the mouth,” Hannibal started, voice like velvet, “but I must admit, your hospitality is extraordinary.”

You allowed a smile to cross your lips. “I live alone. I have the space to share, and you needed help.”

Will glanced around at the eclectic collections on the walls and shelves—maps older than any living memory, candelabras that looked straight out of an antique store from centuries past, and your library of old texts. “You’ve traveled a lot?” he guessed.

“I’ve wandered,” you answered enigmatically. The silence that followed was taut.

“We’re grateful,” Will said softly. “We want you to know that.” In return, you simply nodded. You didn’t expect anything from them beyond eventual departure. Yet something stirred in your chest—an unaccustomed warmth of companionship you hadn’t felt in decades.

The days slipped by like dusk over water. You found yourself engaging in quiet conversations with Will in the evenings, while Hannibal read through your old tomes. Sometimes, you’d glance up to catch both men looking at you with an intensity that made your long-dead heart flutter in a dangerously human way. One night, you were startled when you heard Hannibal and Will murmuring to each other by the fireplace:

“He’s different,” Will said. “I can feel it.”

Hannibal’s voice was thoughtful. “Yes, there’s a presence to him. A calm and hunger, perhaps. Subtle, but there.”

Hunger. You swallowed. The faint thirst you spent centuries controlling was, indeed, always present. They were so perceptive.

Soon, little signs around the cabin began to raise suspicions: the heavy, iron-bound chest in a dark corner that you never let them open, the wine bottles you kept in a locked cupboard (though the contents were not wine at all). Once, Hannibal caught sight of you striding silently across the moonlit porch late at night, eyes glinting, your form almost inhumanly poised. Then there was the evening Will found a solitary pale figure in the forest, sipping from a small deer’s wound. You vanished before he fully comprehended the sight.

But what truly fueled their jealousy—though it blossomed in them before they knew the truth—were the small hints of a partner. A second set of clothing in a trunk, a pair of shoes that didn’t quite match yours, an engraving on a ring hidden in a wooden box. They caught glimpses of these things and exchanged wary looks, uncertain if you belonged to someone else. And why did you keep such personal belongings locked away?

Neither man dared to confront you outright. Yet their longing to be near you, to share these stolen pockets of tenderness, was obvious in every word, every gesture. When you approached either of them—asking about their injuries, smoothing the hair from their faces, offering small, tender assurances—you could feel their hearts quicken.

It happened one late evening, on the porch overlooking the forest. The sky was clear, starlight bright. You stood beside Hannibal and Will, who were both healed enough to walk carefully outside. They sipped from porcelain cups of your herbal tea, scanning the tree line where the moon gilded every branch.

Hannibal spoke first, voice low and calm, “We’ve overstayed our welcome.”

“It’s been two weeks,” Will added gently. “We owe you so much. But we can’t keep burdening you.”

A pang flitted through you at the idea of them leaving. In them, you felt the pull of companionship, even desire. You’d seen the way their gazes lingered on you, felt the gentle brush of their hands when you passed something between them. They were drawn to you in ways neither had dared say.

“You don’t have to leave,” you murmured. “At least not until you’re fully recovered.” You paused, eyes searching the forest. “My home is safe if you need it.”

Hannibal watched you closely, seeing something in your eyes. “There’s more to you than kind hospitality, isn’t there?”

A fleeting grin tugged at your lips, an age-old secret behind your eyes. “I’m not like you,” you admitted softly. “I’m something else.”

Will shifted, the memory of seeing you in the woods late at night still burning in his mind. “I’ve seen glimpses,” he ventured. “But I—I don’t understand.” You inhaled, feeling your chest tighten with apprehension. Never, in all your years, had you willingly revealed your nature to humans. Yet these men—there was something about them that felt like an inevitability.

“I was born human once,” you started quietly, “but that was a long time ago.” You steeled yourself. “I’ve lived many lifetimes since. Surviving on blood, fighting the thirst, wandering from place to place.”

Hannibal’s expression was one of fascination rather than fear. “A vampire?” His tone lacked the disbelief you’d grown used to. Instead, it was curious, tinged with admiration.

You nodded, exhaling slowly. “Yes.”

Will set aside his cup, stepping closer, his eyes flicking over your face. The moonlight made him look almost otherworldly himself. “You saved us from that cliff. You healed us. And you never...took our blood?”

“I’m not a monster,” you whispered. “And I found your lives worth preserving.” You paused, swallowing the remnants of your fear. “The items you found—those things that made you think I had a partner—are old memories of someone I lost centuries ago. Not a current lover.”

Hannibal and Will exchanged glances, a faint bloom of relief apparent in both their eyes. Will exhaled a soft laugh, pushing a nervous hand through his curls. “We thought…We weren’t sure.”

Hannibal’s refined voice cut in, “We may have been jealous.” There was a wry, knowing smile curving his lips. “A foolish notion, given your generosity.”

Heat—or the memory of it—rose to your cheeks. “There’s no one else now,” you said quietly.

As the truth came to light, the shift in your relationship was palpable. Neither man showed fear or disgust. Instead, an unexpected acceptance lingered, twining you closer. Will still found you in the kitchen late at night, but now he’d quietly slide in beside you, leaning against the counter, eyes full of curiosity. He’d ask about your life in hushed tones: your travels, the centuries of knowledge you’d collected. You answered in half-truths or occasional full confessions, depending on what you felt ready to share.

Hannibal, too, found ways to join you in your quiet moments. He appreciated your old texts, marveled at the archaic languages you could read. Something in his own brilliant mind was stimulated by the very notion of a creature who had lived through so many eras. He’d ask you sophisticated questions with an almost reverent tone, and you’d see the faint glint of desire flicker across his features—desire, not just for your body, but your timelessness.

And between them, there was a synergy you’d never witnessed among humans. You caught it in how Will would pass Hannibal a knowing look or in how Hannibal’s fingers would gently skim the small of Will’s back. They were bound to each other, yet somehow, they extended that bond to include you.

After dinner one evening, the three of you lingered around the fireplace, sharing a bottle of fine wine Hannibal had found in your cellar (the real wine, not the blood you kept hidden). The conversation drifted, warmth glowed across your faces. Will was the first to break the comfortable silence. “We’ve been talking—Hannibal and I.”

“Oh?” you prompted, resting your forearms on your knees.

“We feel drawn to you,” Hannibal continued, his eyes glittering in the firelight. “When you saved us, nursed us, you offered an unspoken intimacy. We have begun to care for you in ways that aren’t entirely platonic.”

You set the wine glass aside, heart beating in a way you hadn’t felt in ages. “I care for you both as well,” you admitted, voice quiet. “I was prepared to let you go, if that was what you wanted.”

Hannibal’s hand slid across the small couch to cover yours. Even after all your time in the darkness, the tender heat of a human touch could still set your veins aflame. You felt the weight of both men’s gazes, their presence so near, so achingly real.

Hannibal’s voice was a low murmur, “We have no intention of running away from this…from you.”

Will’s shoulder brushed yours, and you turned to see him looking at you as if you were some delicate miracle. “Stay with us,” he whispered. “Let us stay with you.”

Moon in the Houses of D9 Chart

1st House

When the Moon occupies the first house of your D9 chart, feelings become the driving force in establishing your identity. What you seek in a partner is someone who understands your need to feel things deeply and does not stifle or shun your emotions. This makes for a spouse who is most likely instinctive and sensitive to your moods. They may ease your self-soothing pursuits, providing solid support and peace of mind merely in their presence. You will be able to explore how relationships enhance your self-perception, and together with this individual, you will be at ease revealing the innermost layer of your identity. Prepare for someone who cares about your emotional state and pushes you to go beyond your limits.

2nd House

Possessing the Moon in the 2nd house indicates that the individual seeks a sense of stability and emotional containment within the constraints of relationships. Such a placement often indicates a spouse who prefers coziness, sameness, and pooling of possessions. They may have a serene down to earth personality that provides you with the peace and the assurance you need. The potential mate is most probably an individual who appreciates the need for anchor, perhaps more so one with a strong inclination towards creating a house and providing for the family. Somebody to help you build and maintain good foundations that impart a sense of security and encouragement within the connection and oneself.

3rd House

Having a Moon in the third house indicates a propensity towards relationships that are intellectually stimulating and characterized by plenty of dialogue. One requires a partner who is inquisitive, articulate, and emotionally available. Your spouse might resemble someone who loves talking about anything, serious topic or trivial, thus making you feel bonded by such verbal exchanges. They could be funny, artistic, or thirsting for knowledge and they will offer the mental and emotional challenge you seek. Conversations come easily with them, and you can anticipate enjoying the processes of learning, discovering, and creating with one another.

4th House

When the Moon occupies the Fourth House, one feels the intense craving for a warm and nurturing home which is laudable. Finding a mate who understands the importance of connections, heritages and emotions is the expectation. The potential mate is most probably one who derives satisfaction in the art of home making and prioritizes emotional connection with the propounded mate. Protective, and loving are some of the qualities that she possesses as well as ensuring that you are emotionally secure. It feels as if a fortress will be constructed, and more so, traditions and rituals will glue the two together. This deity will restore order and comfort within you as well as contentment with the relationship.

5th House

If the Moon occupies the fifth house, it implies that romance, creativity, and fun are significant features of your emotional life. You are more likely to attain a spouse with a certain innermost child, probably of a romantic, creative or an artistic nature. This individual will promote your self-expression and will aid in bringing active and playful dimensions to the relationship. Additionally, they might motivate you to explore your artist side after experiencing something beautiful together. This type of bond will have its share of play and leisure, and your wife will be very instrumental in helping you meet your emotional needs amidst love, laughter and various activities.

6th House

The Moon in the sixth house indicates that one has a craving for stability and constancy in any relationship. A spouse who pays attention to schedules, exercising and relies on the feeling of togetherness is required. Therefore, your prospective marriage partner is potentially disciplined, committed, and active in carrying on with her works— a spouse who plays an active role in sustaining their day to day activities. He might also urge you to create better habits and even assist you in bringing order in your life. This individual nurtures stability and peace within the everyday interactions of the couple and will carry you through the storms and rain with a warm embrace and unwavering affection.

7th House

The placement of the Moon in the seventh house indicates that such individuals have an emotional connection in most of their relationships and that they are inclined to believe that being in a partnership is the key to happiness. Such individuals probably seek a spouse who is loving, gentle, and responsive to them. Shisamba’s mate will most likely be the person who seeks symmetry and closeness in the relationship. This mate will know you instinctively and probably assist you in finding parts of yourself that you could not access by yourself. There will be a very intimate bond between the two of you and feelings of safety, respect, and fulfillment will be given to you in a way that is warm and affectionate.

8th House

With the Moon located in the 8th house, there can be a tendency for an individual to seek emotional depth, intimacy, and transformationalism in any relationship. A partner for this person is most likely to be someone with a dark, romantic and intense character. They may provoke your protective emotions, making you deal with your fears and weaknesses. They could be interested in something like working with the mind, the spirit, or the body, and they will encourage you to feel your buried emotions. Such a partner will not shy away from walking on the emotional deep end with you, hence, making the relationship very meaningful and healing as well. Together, you will experience love that is purging and liberating at the same time, through the process teaching you that there is strength in being vulnerable.

9th House

Having the Moon positioned in the ninth house indicates a profound joy in emotional pursuits of studies, travel or extensions in one’s views. A prospective life partner in due course will be a free-spirited and adventurous person who, most probably, belongs to a different culture or ideological setup. This person will promote your inquisitiveness, and urge you to seek answers about spiritual matters, or the big questions in life. This person allows for emotional growth in the relationship and also makes you feel bigger and better than before. It is with them that you will step out of the boundaries and gain lessons from experiences as well as from the internal spiritual quest.

10th House

With the Moon being positioned in the Tenth House, it suggests that you search for someone who will be a stabilizing force, enshrined in respect and potentially elevated social standing. This individual would apply themselves to the work at hand, fulfill commitments, and be dedicated to a cause. Such a person will be supportive of your work and ambitions, and together you will build a lifestyle that will be envied by many. They will help you maintain your public persona and assist you in integrating work and personal fulfillment. This bond will most likely have a beneficial and practical approach, where focus on joint results helps each feel secure emotionally.

11th House

If the Moon is positioned in the 11th house, one’s sense of belonging and emotional contentment are more inclined to friendships, group activities, and common objectives. You are most likely to marry someone who is rather liberal, social and broad-minded, probably someone in the field of charity or in a kind of teams’ work. They will push you to achieve your dreams and strive together with you for them, broadening the scope. This partner will be a confidant, who helps and motivates you to achieve desires that you both cherish. You will embark on a cause, and transform into a pair, inspiring and drawing strength from each other’s endeavors, while the relationship remains the area of comfort and cordiality.

12th House

When the Moon is placed in the twelfth house, it reflects an inclination toward spirituality and a desire to bond with one’s spouse on almost a mystical level. With this position, it can be assumed that one’s future spouse is likely to be an intelligent and kind-hearted person with creative or spiritual interests. They likely are soothing and serene by nature, encouraging you to examine the recesses of your mind. With them, you’ll be able to find emotional comfort, learning how to enjoy one’s company along with peace within oneself. This individual will assist in the loving exploration of more concealed layers of oneself, offering an unwavering love and primeval experience that is far from ordinary, and allowing for the appreciation of deeper, more occult dimensions of existence.

Aid Marafi in Escaping War and Finding Hope

Current progress: $15/$5,000

This campaign was shared by @/modathirzainalabdeen and listed in his link tree

Please take a moment to read Marafi's words and support her campaign. Her campaign was created back in August and remains extremely low on funds.

"My name is Marafi Hajo. I used to live a simple life in Khartoum, striving to build my future through education and hard work. I’m studying Mathematical Sciences with a focus on Statistics and Computer Science, aiming to make a positive contribution to our country’s future. However, when the war broke out, our lives were turned upside down. We had no choice but to leave our home and everything we owned behind, fleeing in search of safety. Initially, we moved from Khartoum to an area in Sennar, hoping to find some peace and stability. But even there, we weren’t safe from the effects of the war. As the situation worsened and the risks increased, we were forced to move again. We hoped to find a safe haven, but it seems like the specter of war is following us wherever we go. Our journey hasn’t been easy; we faced attempts at robbery along the way and moments when fear and anxiety consumed our every thought. I was terrified not just for the few possessions we still had but also of the constant threat of physical violence or rape. I’ve never felt as endangered as I did during those moments. Even though we’ve reached the Northern State, the peace we were seeking is still out of reach. Now, we’re facing the threat of floods, and there’s nowhere else we can go. As the only one in my family who has the ability to travel and provide assistance, I need to first find a safe place where I can also secure a job to help my family. That’s why I am considering traveling to the UAE. Now, I am reaching out to you for help in our fight for survival, to give me the chance to live the life I deserve. Your donation will help revive a dream that has been denied, restore a life that has been stolen, and bring hope that has never been felt by my family. I humbly ask for your support; with your assistance, you will have saved an entire family."

What happens if I leave everything behind ? (Pick-a-card)

🎴 Inspired from the anime- “The Girl from the Other Side”🥀

The forest hums in the silence. The air is thick with mystery. You hold someone’s hand or maybe your own. You don’t know what’s ahead, but staying behind isn’t living anymore. This is a pick-a-card reading for those standing at the edge of a chapter, a city, a love, a life. You’re not running away. You’re walking toward something older than words can explain.

Pick one image. Let your soul whisper which one.

🌑 Pile 1: The one where he carries her home.

Your Cards: The Fool, Six of Swords, Page of Cups, The Moon

You are not weak for wanting rest. You are not lost just because you no longer want to fight where you are. The fool calls to you like a ghost at the edge of the woods. It’s soft and reckless and honest. It says you’re allowed to start over. It says you’re allowed to have no plan. The six of swords is the weight of leaving behind things that once felt like forever. The migration of a soul that outgrew its skin. This is a passage across an emotional ocean it’s not safe or comfortable…..but very very very necessary.

The page of cups is like a dream. This is the child in you beginning again. You’re learning the language of wonder. Of trusting what you feel without apologizing for it. It might be clumsy but it’s real. And then The Moon. That beautiful liar. This card warns you that not everything ahead will make sense. People may misunderstand you. You may misunderstand yourself but keep going. Even if you don’t know who you are yet and especially then.

If you leave everything behind you won’t find clarity. You’ll find magic. You’ll find versions of yourself no one ever got to meet and maybe finally that includes you.

Your Eventual Outcome & Lifestyle: Your life becomes a wild ride but this time, you’re the one driving. For once, your energy isn’t being stolen by people or spaces that can’t hold your expansion. You are decisive and purposeful. You move cities or start over from scratch, even if it’s terrifying. It’s messy and brave. This is the beginning of a grounded, materially supported new chapter. Think of new job, new house, new income stream that aligns with your values. Something you build slowly but sustainably. Your lifestyle shifts toward earthy simplicity. Maybe it’s cottagecore like it’s clean-girl-meets-witchcore but the vibe is rooted. You have stability, and it’s not boring. This future version of you doesn’t tolerate nonsense.You become known for your honesty. Your ability to make sharp but fair decisions. People trust you, but they also respect you. You no longer bend into versions of yourself to make others comfortable. (YASSS queen 👸

🌘 Pile 2: The one where she gives him a flower.

Your Cards: The Hermit, Ten of Wands, Knight of Pentacles, Death

This is for the ones who are tired of holding it all together. You’ve spent so long being strong for others that you forgot who you were before the burden. The hermit says solitude is your medicine. You’re not broken for needing space. You’re not selfish for needing to breathe somewhere no one knows your name. It’s the resentment you carry for always being the dependable one. It’s a warning and a goodbye. If you leave it all behind you’ll finally put it down. The knight of pentacles reminds you that healing isn’t fast and it isn’t glamorous. It’s quiet work like watering the plants, making your bed and picking yourself up again and again until peace becomes a habit.

You are allowed to close a door without hating what’s behind it. Leaving everything behind isn’t an escape. It’s a sacred release.You will grieve but you will also grow. This path will age you and free you all at once.

Your Eventual Outcome & Lifestyle: It’s silence that doesn’t feel lonely. You will live slower….more intentionally. You will heal not by doing but by being. The lifestyle here is deeply restorative. No more scrambling to be enough. You will no longer live in survival mode. Your home may be surrounded by green. It may smell like tea and jasmine. You’ll dress in what feels like comfort incarnate. You may cook more. You may create art or raise plants or finally have time to rest without guilt. Your body will thank you. Your nervous system will unclench. You’ll feel safe….very safe (T-T) You might find yourself mentoring others, working in healing or creative fields, or simply living as someone who no longer absorbs the chaos around them. People will notice how calm you are. You might even become the soft place others come to when they don’t know what to do but this time, it won’t cost you yourself to help them.

🌒 Pile 3: The one where they walk into the woods.

Your Cards: Temperance, Eight of Cups, The Star, Two of Wands

This pile is for the quiet deciders. The ones who never made a scene when they cracked. You’ve balanced for so long between duty and desire. Between what they expected and what you actually wanted. Temperance sees you. She knows you didn’t make this choice lightly. That you are the type to weigh every consequence before you say yes to your own freedom.

The eight of cups says it’s time…..Even if you love them…..Even if they weren’t cruel…..Even if it could’ve worked in another lifetime. This card doesn’t just mean leaving. It means leaving without needing them to understand why. The Star pours light on the path you can’t quite see. It’s quiet hope. A promise that the world you want does exist and it’s waiting where you stopped looking.

The two of wands urges you to make a move now. If you leave everything behind you’ll find direction. You’ll find a self that doesn’t shrink to fit the walls built around her.You don’t have to burn it all down. You just have to walk away with love in your chest and no apology in your step.

Your Eventual Outcome & Lifestyle: Your new life starts in silence. You become someone who listens more to your intuition than to outside noise. There’s no rush here. You won’t be chasing validation or speed or metrics of success that never mattered to you anyway. Your lifestyle will feel sacred. You’ll wake up with softness. Morning rituals will become spiritual practices. There will be fewer people, but deeper connections. You might take up practices like journaling, tarot, candle-making, dreamwork, or even just long quiet walks at sunrise. You don’t have to explain anything anymore. People won’t “get you” and that finally stops mattering. You might move somewhere greener. You might host dinners for friends who feel like poetry. Your lifestyle will prioritize comfort, safety, beauty. A small kitchen where you bake bread while listening to old records. Money will come but through grounded, soul-aligned effort expect to prioritise things slowly.

Note

I enjoy your writings, so I hope you won't mind the odd request. You do such a good job when it comes to writing, I felt tempted to see what you might do with one of my odd ideas.

If it's possible, I'd like to see what you do with a gender neutral reader with Dainslief, Zhongli, and Alhaitham, and a corrupted reader. What I mean by that, is like, how would they react to a reader that gets corrupted like via the Akasha for Alhaitham, a reader that get corrupted by erosion for Zhongli, and a reader that gets corrupted by the Abyss for Dainslief?

How do the men find out, and what do they use to confirm their suspicions? But also, how do you think they'd react? Would they try to save reader? Get rid of them? Or something else entirely?

I hope you like the prompt, and I look forward to seeing your take on it.

Fractures in the Light

Synopsis: You were their balance, their constant, their proof that stability or peace was possible in a world ruled by entropy, time, and secrets. But corruption is subtle. It doesn’t take you away in a single sweep—it erodes you, chips you into something no longer human, no longer you. And what will the ones who claimed to love you do… when they find you're slipping into something they cannot understand? Pairings: [Separate] Yandere Dainsleif, Zhongli, and Alhaitham x Corrupted! Gender-neutral Reader

Dainsleif – Abyssal Echoes

It begins slowly.

You speak with silence behind your voice. You flinch at the light of teleport waypoints. You start dreaming in a language you do not know.

Dainsleif notices. Of course, he does.

The first time he suspects something is wrong is when you touch a hilichurl corpse with something close to reverence. You murmur, "They aren’t wrong. Just changed." And Dainsleif freezes.

He says nothing at first. But after that, he watches you—like a soldier stalking the battlefield.

Eventually, he confronts you deep beneath Sal Vindagnyr, where the Abyss is strongest. Your eyes glint with pale blue as you hum some ancient lullaby not meant for surface-dwellers.

"… You're one of them now." His voice is hoarse, quiet.

You smile. It’s not unkind. It’s just… hollow. "Maybe I always was."

He clenches his jaw. His hand trembles at the hilt of his sword.

"Don’t you dare say that."

In his mind, there is no choice. He cannot allow you to fade completely. But he cannot destroy you either.

So he steals you away into the Abyss itself. To lock you somewhere only he can reach. To shield the world from you, and you from the world. He'll pour over forbidden magic, Abyssal and divine, breaking every rule and promise just to restore what he once loved.

Even if all that’s left is a husk, he will drag you back.

Because to lose you again… is not an option.

Zhongli – Erosion’s Toll

At first, you forget the little things. Names. Years. You stop reacting to familiar festivals in Liyue. Your gaze becomes distant when the harbour bustles around you.

Zhongli is used to watching mortals fade. But you are not supposed to fade. You are not like the others.

He tests you gently. Gives you objects you love, stories you’ve told, asking you to recite them. But your answers begin to break apart.

He finds you staring at Osial’s remains one day, murmuring to the ancient bones like old friends. You look at him and ask, “Zhongli, have we met before?”

His breath stills.

In his private archives, he combs through erosion records, matching your symptoms.

His suspicion is confirmed when he finds an old text on memory-deepening rituals—something you had once helped him restore. It’s now in your handwriting, but you claim you’ve never seen it.

Erosion has taken root.

And Zhongli—who has watched mountains crumble—panics in a way he hasn’t since the Archon War.

But he does not cry.

Instead, he gathers everything—elixirs, talismans, immortality arts long buried. He prepares a ritual meant for gods, not mortals. You no longer remember your name. Still, he wraps your hand in his, and with quiet conviction says:

“You will not vanish. Even if I must bind your soul in amber and place you beside my heart.”

Alhaitham – Akasha’s Whisper

It starts when you begin quoting information you shouldn’t have access to. Entire passages of research locked in the House of Daena. Predictions of scholars' experiments before they occur. You insist it’s intuition.

Alhaitham is sceptical. He runs simulations, tests your exposure to Sumeru's networks. Eventually, he runs a scan on your brain activity via a restricted Akasha terminal.

It lights up too perfectly.

“The system shouldn't recognise you,” he says aloud. “You’re not linked to the network.”

You glance at him with a flicker of something… mechanical. “I am now. Knowledge is truth, and truth is—freedom.”

The chill that runs down his spine is immediate.

The Akasha is gone. Shut down. Burned from the world.

And yet—it lives in you.

He begins leaving baited questions around you—ones without answers, just to see if you’ll parrot responses. Eventually, you begin speaking in riddles, spiralling logic loops. When you say “The Scattered God speaks through the neural rain,” he snaps.

He takes you back to the Akademiya, locking you in his own research chambers, masked as protection.

He tells himself this is salvageable. That he can remove the Akasha strings embedded in your mind like tumours. That your identity is still buried beneath all that data.

But your eyes glow sometimes, and your voice distorts. And he knows—if he hesitates, if he fails, the thing inside you might consume you entirely.

Yet he keeps trying.

Because if knowledge corrupted you—then knowledge can cure you.

And Alhaitham would rather destroy the foundation of Sumeru itself than let you slip beyond the edge of sentience.

A family trapped in Gaza appeals for help to survive

Hello, I am Eman Anshasi from a family of 11.

A distress call from Gaza: A family seeking safety in light of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip. We have been through very difficult circumstances.

We have been displaced several times. We lost our home, which I paid for with all my savings, to enemy bombs shortly after our first displacement.

We lost all the beautiful things that my family and I enjoyed, and the most difficult beautiful thing we lost was the safety of peace, due to the violent bombing that surrounded us in all the places we fled to. We live in the midst of the ongoing hellish war in Gaza, trapped between walls of fear and despair. We need to raise funds to restore a beautiful life and stability outside the Gaza Strip.

Everything I say leaves only a small glimpse of the suffering we are living. Below is a glimpse into the contrast between our lives before the aggression and the nightmare we have been living since it began. Thank you for your support and solidarity, please do not hesitate to donate to me and my family. A small donation from you makes a big difference.

My heroic friends who support the Palestinian cause... Today, after we have lost hope in this world, I ask you to help us and stand by us.

✅️Vetted by @gazavetters, my number verified on the list is ( #200 )✅️

I thank everyone who supports my family.

Your guides also want to remind you of your strength and resilience. You have the inner courage to face challenges, and with patience and persistence, you will overcome any obstacles in your path.

An early Japanese ruler who brought stability to her kingdom, Himiko (ruled c. 180–c. 247/248) remains shrouded in mystery. Her story offers fascinating glimpses into the power of female rulers in ancient Japan.

Himiko and the sources

Himiko’s existence is known through Chinese sources, the earliest being the History of the Wei, compiled in 297. This is due to the queen having sent embassies to China. The text provides more details about Himiko and the Wa people (Japan was then referred to as “Wakoku” or “Dwarf Country” by the Chinese) than about other regions. This suggests that her assertive diplomacy held significant importance for China.

Himiko is not mentioned in Japan’s national histories, such as the Kojiki and the Nihon Shoki, which were compiled much later. It is likely that she did not fit the narrative these works aimed to promote—one of an unbroken dynasty passed down mostly through male rulers.

Chosen to bring back peace

Himiko ruled over the kingdom of Yamatai. The exact location of this kingdom remains debated, with some scholars placing it in Kyūshū, others in the Kinki region. No conclusive proof has emerged.

She came to power after a long period of warfare. The country had previously been ruled by a man, but his reign was marred by unrest. The people therefore chose Himiko, hoping she would restore peace and stability.

It is possible that several of the chieftains who supported her rise to power were women. Archaeological finds from the period indicate that women held prominent leadership roles in political, military, and religious spheres.

Himiko may have been a shamaness or priestess—an exalted and influential position. The History of the Wei states that she “occupied herself with magic and sorcery, bewitching the people.” Himiko remained unmarried and was assisted in governance by her younger brother.

She apparently led a secluded life:

"After she became the ruler, there were few who saw her. She had one thousand women as attendants, but only one man. He served her food and drink and acted as a medium of communication. She resided in a palace surrounded by towers and stockades, with armed guards in a state of constant vigilance."

Bias and interpretations

Modern scholars have often interpreted this passage in ways that downplay Himiko’s authority. Some suggested that her brother was the true ruler, while Himiko merely performed religious duties without political power.

However, most researchers now recognize that leadership in ancient Japan typically involved support from assistants and regional chiefs. Himiko’s position was consistent with this model. Nothing in the sources suggests her brother ruled in her place; rather, it seems she was chosen because other leaders saw in her the qualities of a capable sovereign.

Himiko was not the only ruler to remain unseen by foreign envoys—this practice continued for centuries. Her seclusion, therefore, was not exceptional.

The Chinese chronicler may also have been biased. In imperial China, only male rule was recognized, and a female sovereign would have seemed a barbaric anomaly.

Himiko’s rule and diplomacy

Himiko successfully unified around thirty chiefdoms under her control. She led the most powerful kingdom of her time and was able to subdue others. Her authority stemmed not only from her religious status but also from her control of borders, markets and taxation.

She invested heavily in diplomacy with China. In 238, she sent gifts to the new emperor—including slaves and fabrics. In return, she received a golden seal designating her “Queen of Wa, Friend of Wei,” along with woven fabrics, swords, jade jewelry, and bronze mirrors. In 243, she dispatched another embassy with brocades, which were highly valued by the Chinese, further enhancing her prestige.

Death and legacy

In 247, Himiko’s rival, the king of Kuna, prepared for war, and internal unrest was growing. Himiko died before the conflict was resolved. According to the History of the Wei:

"A great mound was raised, more than a hundred paces in diameter. More than a hundred male and female attendants followed her to the grave."

Her succession marked a continuation of female rule:

"A king was placed on the throne, but the people would not obey him. Assassination and murder followed; more than one thousand were thus slain. A relative of [H] imiko named Iyo 壱与, a girl of thirteen, was [then] made queen and order was restored. Zheng [the Chinese ambassador] issued a proclamation to the effect that Iyo was the ruler."

Himiko’s story has long fueled scholarly debate. Was she linked to the legendary Empress Jingū, who was also said to have been active during this period? Where was her kingdom located? Where was she buried?

In early modern Japan, after the Meiji Restoration of 1868, Himiko’s story was reinterpreted to suit a new ideology. As government was to be seen as the exclusive domain of men, Himiko couldn't be acknowledged as a true ruler.

Yet Himiko continues to fascinate. She has appeared in numerous works, from films to video games, and was recently featured as a playable leader in Civilization VII.
