astronomy
Celestial objects and the phenomena that surrounds them. What lies above the earth forever out of reach. From moons, to stars, galaxies, and beyond.
The Persistent Crab
I am a Cancer whose sign is symbolized by a crab. There's a lot I don't like about that statement. Too much negative connotation there. Knowing that the word cancer comes from the Latin word for crab doesn't make me feel much better about it. A crab is not the representation I would have chosen, had I been given the choice. After all, who would choose a lowly crustacean over a mighty lioness or a bull or a ram - a fearsome creature that inspires awe and reverence?

Do I have to spell it out for you?
I am a Libra, so I share an astrological sign with Will Smith; therefore, I am automatically superior to the other signs. Not to mention, Kim Kardashian and I are the same sign, so that’s really cool, you guys. Oh, I almost forgot Eminem is a Libra too. That explains why I rhyme when I talk and have a swagger when I walk and write stories with chalk while holding my hawk.

My zodiac and me:
Along with most millennials and gen z-ers astrology is a part of life . Whether you are a die hard believer or not, most people tend to refer to astrology in a multitude of ways. For example, when you meet someone new usually one of the first questions asked is “what’s your sign?”. But how many of us actually think astrology truly has an affect on our lives or relationships ? And for those who take things further and dive into zodiac houses and birth charts, is this something truly to be believed?

Living the Virgo Life
I am a Virgo through and through. All bare feet, mud-soaked toes and earth mama vibe wrapped up and wound tight with strings of boardroom organization and CEO perfectionism. My heart and my intentions are always easy to find since I wear them on my sleeve, but my fashion sense leans practical and I believe firmly in wearing layers. So, while what you see is always what you get with me, your view may change depending on how sharp your eyes are, and how deep you’re willing to look.

Side by Side
We all relate to the elements every day. Water, air, earth, and fire are inescapable. The zodiac divides people into elements and so we are related to an element by birth, no choice of our own. It’s strange how there are twelve zodiac signs and twelve months but they don’t align exactly. Is that by design? In order to understand this clearly, we need to embrace the idea that the symbols and the elements all “speak” to us. Looking at the symbol for each of the signs there are two parts to each symbol. These parts can be seen as opposites in a way. My sign, Aquarius, for example, has two wavy lines. It is also interesting that Aquarius is called the water bearer but is actually an air sign. Aquarius starts on January 20 and ends on February 19. For the longest time, I didn’t really feel like the Aquarius that every horoscope described. We’re called crazy, flighty, off the wall, stand-outish, loud, and anything but subtle. I suppose some of those can apply but not always and much more limited than imagined. So how can this be?

Split Personality Gifted by Nature
I was born on 20.02.2002. It looks cool on my ID card but not so cool when it comes to my identity. February 19th, the sun sets for the Water Bearer and rises for the Fish. Air and Water. In the NarutoVerse, when Air and Water natures are mixed, they form ice. That perfectly explains my relationship with my zodiac sing(s). It’s like walking on thin ice in terms of balance – slippery.

It's an Aquarius Thing!
When they told me there was a 13th sign and that I was no longer an Aquarius, I was dismayed. As if I could be anything other than who I am. And in true Aquarius form, I then became rather annoyed that someone would dare tell me that I was, in fact, a Capricorn!
