Book analysis
The Masque of The Red Death by Edgar Allan Poe
Tumblr media
The short story written by the master of gothic literature deals mainly with the inevitability of death. When Prince Prospero thought he was protected with his iron gates and walls death could creep unseen and kill everyone there. Death is justice. When it comes to dying even the wealthiest person will vanish from the world someday. With all their money, power and lavish clothes the prince and his friends could not escape death. Moreover, colours can have a deeper meaning in literature. The author uses colours symbolism to represent the stages of life. The rooms were decorated with seven colors: blue, purple, green, orange violet, dark red. The Blue room can represent the first stage in life being born. We often see baby rooms painted with light blue portraying innocence, peace and purity. Purple is childhood and growing up. Green is the colour of nature hence it can symbolize the twenties when people are full of energy and life. If we talk about the colour orange one of the first pictures we will have in mind is the sunset before a pitch-black night. As a result orange could represent maturity and adulthood. At the end, obviously the dark red stands for death. To conclude with, the theme may seem not original nowadays because it has been dealt with before even in movies like Final Destination however, I tip my hat for Poe’s ability to create such a well-written and original story back in that time.

Astrology observations n6
favorite Synastry houses
⋆。゚☁︎。⋆。 ゚☾ ゚。⋆
4th House synastry
Tumblr media
The fourth house is ruled by cancer and the moon. It’s about childhood, family and home. If someone’s has their planets on your forth house this relationship is mostly going to make you feel safe and secure. There will be a sense of comfort and mutual caring. You both deeply care about each other’s needs, listen and nurture each other. Your partner blends well with your family members they may share many interests and qualities. It also indicates a long term and lasting relationship. Fourth house synastry is a warm pumpkin soup in a cold winter day.
5th house synastry
Tumblr media
The house of romance, children and entertainment. It’s playful and fiery just like Leo energy. A relationship with strong 5th synastry feels like becoming a teenager or a curious child again.It feels innocent, spontaneous and fun. You will be more vibrant. Since it’s also the house of creativity boredom will be rare, you and your partner always get creative when it comes to dates and doing fun things together. You also enjoy doing simple tasks together like doing groceries, playing video games, stargazing even making troubles!
8th house synastry
Tumblr media
They say the forbidden fruit tastes the sweetest. That’s what’s 8th synastry is all about. In this kind of relationship it’s usually taboo, secretive and too intense. My favorite placements are Mars and Moon in the 8th house, the physical and emotional bond is usually very strong. It’s you and your partner can read each other’s minds and know your deepest desires. The chemistry is truly undeniable. Since it is also the house of death, you can see the dark parts of your partner and accept them too. You can also start a business together , work successfully on a project and share things.
12th house synastry
Tumblr media
When it comes to 12th house synastry people have different experiences. For some it is a bless and a fairytale, for others it is a curse and a nightmare. In my opinion it’s one of the best and most misunderstood synastry, it’s not just the house of enemies but also soulmates, subconscious, hospitals, fantasies, secrets. This synastry can show you your weakness, trigger your trauma and takes you to places you didn’t want to go. It will break you just to rebuild you stronger again . It is a spiritual journey. 12th house synastry may indicate love from the first sight you may have thought «  I feel like I have known this person before » the feeling of familiarity is so strong because it can indicate karmic and past life relationships. 12th house is ruled by Neptune so it explains if you have many dreams about the person. Like a magnet pulling you towards the person, it’s inescapable, unavoidable and unearthly.

Astrological observations n5
The rising signs part 2 🌅
Scorpio rising
Lana Del Rey, Lily Depp, Nicole Kidman are all Scorpio risings. Something particular I noticed about them is that they have siren eyes that pierce into your soul. They also excel in acting and modeling. Scorpio rising gives black sheep energy due to their intimidating and dark aura. They hate pretense and fake people and can spot a mischievous person a mile away. Their soul is old and intense always seeking deeper meaning. The latter can make them interested in the occult and the supernatural. The life of a Scorpio rising can be a rollercoaster full of ups and downs but it’s just a matter of time before they develop thicker skin and rise victorious.
Tumblr media
Cancer rising
Round face and puppy eyes, is the first thing that comes to my mind. Cancer risings have innocent, doll-like features. Unlike Capricorn risings they are very expressive with their face. Like other cancer placement cancer risings are nurturing and make excellent parents. I like how Angelina is affectionate and loving towards all of her children. Cancer is the mother of the zodiac. They are also extremely sensitive but they hide it. Another important point to mention is that they may have stomach/ digestion issues, I am a cancer rising in sidereal and I have celiac disease.
Tumblr media
Pisces rising
Sleepy dreamy eyes, peaceful aura, soft features, Pisces risings have an ethereal beauty. Since Pisces rule the hands and feet they tend to have nice hands and use them a lot when talking. They also like to get creative with their hands so activities like cooking, painting, knitting, pottery seem very appealing to them. These individuals are deeply spiritual people and rely on their intuition. Ryan Gosling, Michael Jackson and Johnny Cash have an aura of innocence and purity.
Tumblr media
Earth rising
Capricorn rising
Many Capricorn risings have dark features usually defined jawline,curly hair and sharp eyes. They like elegant clothes, minimal look think of clean girl aesthetic. Capricorn risings are reserved. They love being a mystery to people. Sometimes they even like to create a fake persona different from their real personality. They also tend to be into arts and reading about multiple subjects. I noticed many of them become successful in a very young age or in a late age no in between.
Tumblr media
Taurus rising
Taurus risings have mesmerizing voices, this placement can make the person a good singer. They have beautiful features especially their eyes and neck. When it comes to personality they can be introverted and such a gentle soul but they will also fight back if their boundaries are crossed.
Tumblr media
Virgo rising
Virgo risings often have pale skin, dark hair, and sharp faces. Another common trait is that they have beautiful eyes they remind me of fairies or elves. Some even look much younger than their age. I find Timothée Chalamet to be the best representation. When it comes to their styles it tends to be simple or preppy style. Hygiene and structure is very important. Think of Keanu Reeves, Christina Ricci, Emma Watson they always look presentable and put together. They are detail oriented they just notice everything!

“Plants and animals don’t fight the winter; they don’t pretend it’s not happening and attempt to carry on living the same lives that they lived in the summer. They prepare. They adapt. They perform extraordinary acts of metamorphosis to get them through. Winter is a time of withdrawing from the world, maximising scant resources, carrying out acts of brutal efficiency and vanishing from sight; but that’s where the transformation occurs. Winter is not the death of the life cycle, but its crucible.”

I hate the misconception that introverts don’t like talking. If you’re the right person, we’ll talk to you for hours on end about pretty much anything. However, it’s incredibly difficult to find the right people, so for the most part we’ll probably just stay quiet.

Tumblr media
What is shadow work?
🌱 Shadow work is deep diving into your heart, mind and soul. It’s a meditation on what really bothers you, pains you and matters to you. Shadow work can be really uncomfortable as you have to be transparent and honest to yourself. You have to face your shadow self and some parts you have hidden even from yourself. At the end it helps you reach acceptance, and processing traumas, unhealed emotional wounds and understanding yourself and your surroundings better.🌱
These are some shadow work prompts I worked with so far, I will add more with time. I hope it will be helpful.

16- when you meet someone what are the first qualities you tend to notice? Are they physical or mental and why are they important to you
17- is there a pattern in your relationships and do you tend to attract the same people ?
18- what are the common themes, symbols , emotions in your dreams ? What could they mean?
19- are there any generational curses/traumas in your family ?
20- what are the things you need to forgive yourself for?
21- did your caretakers teach you about self-care and self-love or was it self-learnt ?
22- do your goals and achievements bring real satisfaction and joy to you or you are doing them for other people and external validation ?

Astrological observations n4
The zodiacs in love
☁︎⋆⁺₊⋆☾⋆⁺₊⋆ ☁︎
Songs i feel mirror how they fall in love ( Sun,moon, Venus, Mars)
Water placements
Tumblr media
☽ Cancer :
🖤 Cancers are cautious about giving their heart away but just like a crab leaving their shell they can be vulnerable and affectionate . After all, Cancer is ruled by the moon. It’s a symbol of the mother, hence it’s is nurturing and caring. Cancers don’t fall for shallowness, they need emotional connection. They need to know and understand everything about you and they will because their intuition is so strong. Cancer is also a homebody, they would seek to get to know to your family and even introduce you to theirs. They will constantly tell their friends and family about you and bring you everywhere with them. They will stare at you a lot and their eyes will sparkle because you are now their home.
☽ Pisces ( or when your Venus/moon trine/sextuple/ conjunct Neptune) :
🖤 When Pisces placements fall in love they tend to have constant dreams about the other person this can be applied to other water placements but I feel it’s more common with them. Pisces are usually creative so expect them writing about you in their journals or making you cute handmade things. When in love , pisces get blindfolded to the red flags. That’s why they are more prone to get heartbroken more than any sign. Their love is the reason of their existence now. For Pisces passion isn’t just sex , pisces want to see souls merging and unite in an otherworldly mystical way.
☽ Scorpio ( or when your Venus conjunct/trine/sextile/Pluto) :
🖤 When scorpios fall in love it’s intense, chaotic and beautiful. Sometimes they feel so much it makes them hate how much love they have for the person. They are ready to offer their special person the world and they will, that’s why they will seek vengeance if they get betrayed. Being loved or in love with a Scorpio feels like being under a spell. It’s hypnotic. They can read your mind, see your darkest parts and understand you deeply. I also noticed many scorpios have the “ Us vs the world” mentality. It’s a ride or die journey and it’s not for the faint at heart.
