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.
A Conflicted Gemini. Top Story - March 2021.
I am something of a contradiction: a logical creative. On the one hand, I am a scientist — I crave data and evidence-based theories. On the other, I am a speculative fiction writer who loves being swept away by magical prose and unbelievable lands. I have always found the distinction between logic and creativity to be strange, because I do not see these things as mutually exclusive. There is art in data analysis, and sometimes an excel spreadsheet is the only way to save your fictional narrative.

"But I Don't Feel Like A Libra!"
My Introduction to Astrology My first encounter with astrology was from a coffee-stained newspaper on the corner of my grandparents' kitchen table. The article it contained struck a chord with me, but not a beautiful harp chord, more like a screeching violin chord. According to the "Horoscope of the Day," being born in October meant that I was "charming, dishonest and gullible." Charming? I wish. I had no friends and got bullied everyday by a bunch of ugly boys who would try to trip me in the halls of our elementary school. Dishonest? No way. My pious-like inability to lie was probably the reason for my social awkwardness. Gullible? Ok, maybe that one is true but I didn't want to be. I was terrified of being manipulated. If only I was born a couple days later, then I would be a Scorpio like my sister, a sign which the newspaper described as "powerful, magnetic and strong." It's true too: despite being two years younger than me, my sister excelled at the sports I sucked at and seemed to make friends with ease.

The Blind Curiosity of an Archer
There are many ways we can discover ourselves through self-exploration. A Zodiac acts as a fundamental portal into more and more self-discovery. First, we start out hearing we all have an assigned Zodiac sign and since that door normally opens when we're younger, it's hard for anyone not to ask, "What am I?"

I am Supposed to be a Capricorn
I am scared when looking at things for my star sign. According to everything I am the exact opposite of my start sign. I live in a fantasyland inside of my mind to cope with my depression. Hiding behind everything like a scared child. Protecting myself from being hurt, either by other people or just what is in my mind.

It's Written in The Stars
Even my birth was planned... sort of. Not wanting to be called in on Christmas morning, my mother’s doctor suggested he induce labour to avoid an unwanted gift. So, four days before Christmas, on the Winter Solstice, at 2:05 in the afternoon, Gabrielle Blair was born.
