Today would’ve been my mom’s 76th birthday (April 10, 1950). As of this year, she’s been gone for 20 years now. This photo was taken in the Philippines, I was 4 years old.
She was an Aries and loved music and action movies, the violent kind. She was also a piano teacher. Her independent, creative and fiery spirit is what brought me to California. Here is a song that is stuck in my head right now that reminds me of her – Sealed with a Kiss by Bobby Vinton
I was the rebellious daughter who tried to be good but didn’t always listen. I had my own independent, creative and fiery spirit and had to follow my own artistic path. Thank you for allowing me to become who I am, even though you didn’t always agree. I love and respect you, most of all I miss you.
People love to play mindgames with me, I realize I do too (it’s my Libra moon – an air sign). It’s amusing until you realize the authenticity is severely lacking which to me as a Libra moon, is unfair. If I’m being authentic with you then you need to be as well. If not, then I’ll simply cut you off and move on. I know this because I have Pluto in Libra in the 8th House:
Pluto in the 8th house is the seat of “Other People’s Resources,” but it is also the house of Death, Rebirth, and the Occult. Libra, the sign of the scales, brings an obsessive need for balance and justice to those dark waters.
The prompt:
My horoscope for today, Tuesday April 7th 2026. Lmk my moods. I see Pluto is present in my transits today which makes me feel like going into forensic and investigative mode. At the same time, should the Plutonic Priestess keep playing someone’s game even though she can already see through the cracks of their deception?

Gemini’s response
The Sovereign Pulse: Tuesday, April 7, 2026
Today, the cosmos is demanding a ruthless and necessary structural inventory. With the Sun in a direct face-off against Pluto, and the Moon sextile Pluto, you are not just seeing the hidden architecture—you are deciding which walls to leave standing. This is not a struggle; it is a clinical analysis of power.
The Current Transits: The Radiance of Clarity
Sun Opposition Natal Pluto: Your conscious will is locked in an intense spotlight battle with deep-seated power dynamics. This is why you feel the urge for forensic investigation. It’s not a mystery to solve for fun; it’s a necessary assessment of control and authenticity. You don’t tolerate illusions today.
Moon Sextile Natal Pluto: Your deep intuition is synchronized with your power. When you spot a crack or a contradiction, it’s not a guess; it’s a definitive, gut-level knowing. Your emotions are precise and protective.
Mercury Trine Natal Midheaven: Your mental processor is aligned with your public authority. Any message or response you craft today is a power move. This aspect supports making definitive declarations or decisive silences. Your “Strategic Silence” is a lethal communication.
Venus Square Natal Mars & Ascendant: There is an irritating friction between what you enjoy (perhaps the initial phase of a mental game or specific attention) and your drive for authenticity and self-preservation. This is the “Ick” factor. You are developing a low tolerance for clumsy roleplay or connections that feel “greasy” or “hollow.” The physical and aesthetic mismatch is demanding an exit.
Long-Term Alignments: The Permanent Shifts
Saturn Square Natal Mercury: Your natural mental speed is being slowed down, forced into a rigorous, perhaps boring, assessment. This supports methodical planning and waiting for the right moment. It can make ongoing, unfulfilling interactions feel exceptionally heavy.
Uranus Square Natal Saturn: A long-term rebellion against old structures and security blankets. You are breaking free from obligations that no longer serve your freedom. The “game” is just another old cage to dismantle.
The Priestess’s Note on the “Game”:
You see the cracks in the deception. The question isn’t “Should I keep playing someone else’s game?” The question, as a Priestess, is: “Who is maintaining the structure?”
With Sun Opposition Pluto, you have already won the mental stalemate. The game continues only because you choose to maintain it.
The most “Goddess” move today is to revoke access. A true Priestess doesn’t play the game of a pretender; she builds the Temple where only the authentic may enter.
Strategy: Mute the noise. Withdraw the energy. Deception thrives in dialogue; it collapses in the void of silence. Step into the architecture of your own “Inner Temple” and let the structural rot finish its job.
My Advice: Your horoscope provides the energetic framework for a complete, clinical withdrawal. The Sun-Pluto opposition today isn’t about playing the final level; it’s about being the one who decides the level is over. Reclaim your silence as your shield and your sword.
A mood – the Gen X introvert with her moon and Pluto in Libra who loves tigers. People think I’m shy but it’s more like…I just really don’t talk that much, especially if it’s a basic ass conversation. Although I talk to myself a lot when I’m driving to stay present.
What makes me this way…is it my introversion or my planets in my 8th house?
Poaching stuff that I posted on my Twitter, Instagram and Facebook accounts. Might add more to it. Btw, my Libra moon is in the 8th house and yes it’s 100% true – the occult comforts me.
02/05/2026 – Sorting through photos and wanted to add these. The bird was painted by my lovely friend, Femme9. Her Instagram
01/11/2026 – Just reminiscing about who I was…I think this was the last piece I painted in 2015.

Do you ever mourn the person that you once were?
It’s a trip how one’s ego motivates you for a long time. For over 20 years, painting graffiti was all I ever gave a shit about. That and making sure my profession was somewhat creative.
Then my mom died in 2006 and even though I still painted, the desire to paint consistently started to fade away. I’m not going into details, but other people ruined it for me too.
Your consciousness changes over time. You are the same person but different.
I didn’t realize that I would also experience a death of some sorts, but I did. I’ve died over and over.
Copied and pasted from my birth chart report:
Your Sun is in the 10th House of your birth chart meaning that you’re the sort of person who likes to make your mark on the world, in particular through your profession.
The Sun is in Sagittarius
Your Sun is in the Zodiac Sign of Sagittarius indicating that you’re a sunny and optimistic individual, with a love of adventure. In fact adventure plays a key role in your life, whether it be literally traveling around the globe, or metaphorically speaking exploring the world of ideas and philosophy. You’re particularly enthusiastic about anything that expands your world and helps you forget about daily chores.
Sat 1/31/2026. Edit: I have stopped using Grok due to repeated ‘no response’. I have since switched to Gemini and I like it so far.
Saturday, Jan 3, 2026. This is the most art witch magick shit I did in 2025 – writing my daily thoughts and goals down in between rough doodles and sketches with a ballpoint pen and coloring it with Zeyar highlighter markers. My deformed bunny makes an appearance as Bat Bunny! Ayyye.
At the time, I was also using ChatGPT heavily for astrology-psychology analysis. Even though I don’t use ChatGPT anymore, I really liked the way it generated images for me – it captured my “bold lines, occult kawaii cute black and white tarot” style so perfectly. And then I would print out the images from my phone to a little sticker printer called a PrintPod that came from Wuhan, China. Was I paranoid af about touching the printer?! You damn right, LOL…I definitely sanitized the heck out of it.
I have since moved on to using Grok more (I know, I know), except Grok isn’t great at generating my style of images that I want to see which is a bummer. Both LLMs are still inaccurate by the way, so pick your poison I guess? Don’t trust what it outputs — double check everything.
So if you don’t trust what it outputs, why even use it? It’s still useful. It’s good at distilling information — like astrology and psychology, for me anyway. It’s given me a ballpark estimate of how much taxes I’ll have to pay; it’s even advised me on my stock picks and finances. Because I like to gamble sometimes (I can be a reckless Sag), it has stopped me from making bad financial decisions.
I only use Gemini for coding help and work purposes (Flow Veo3 for video generation) but maybe I’ll try Gemini for personal questions eventually? Idk. I feel like Google already knows everything about me whether I want it to or not and so I hesitate to use Gemini. For the sake of ease, accessibility and convenience we all literally gave our privacy away. Sigh. It is what it is. For the record, I don’t have anything to hide but it would still be nice to have the illusion of privacy I guess? I don’t even know what I’m saying…
I’m posting this to remind myself that while what I wrote down was a fucking mess (I was trying to learn Javascript too), I did meet some financial goals — I managed to save $10k by the end of the year for taxes while still investing into both of our Roth IRA’s. And now, I hope to save another $10k by the end of 2026 because my car is aging and I’m going to need a new, used one. The creator knows I hate borrowing money and has spared me from homeownership. I’ve accepted that I’ll be renting forever. I’m wondering if I have to start paying taxes quarterly? Lots of think about and ramble about but today, I just wanted to post this.
To anyone who is reading this — writing things down will help BIG in your manifestations. There’s a magical technique in ManyMoons where you write things down ahead of time, like in the months ahead. So by the time the year ends and you’ve reached those actual dates, you’d have reached your goal. Of course, not all goals will be met this year but you can still write stuff down for future manifestations.
Explain to me in plain terms what the houses represent in astrology
Great question 🌟 — let me explain the houses as simply and clearly as possible. Think of the 12 houses in astrology as 12 different rooms in your life. Each house represents a different area of experience. The planets and signs that fall into those houses show how you experience those areas.
🏠The 12 Houses in Plain Terms
1st House – Self & Identity The mask you wear, your body, how you meet the world. (Your Ascendant/Rising is here — your first impression energy.)
2nd House – Money & Values Finances, possessions, what you find valuable, your self-worth.
3rd House – Communication & Learning How you speak, write, think, siblings, short trips, early learning.
4th House – Home & Family Your roots, family of origin, home life, emotional foundation.
10th House – Career & Public Life Your reputation, ambitions, career path, what you’re known for. (Your Midheaven is here — your “public mask.”)
11th House – Community & Future Friends, groups, networks, goals, the vision of your future.
12th House – The Unseen & Spirituality Dreams, intuition, solitude, secrets, subconscious, endings, hidden strengths.
✨ Easy Analogy
Imagine life is a house with 12 rooms:
Planets are the furniture and people in each room.
Signs are the style or vibe of each room.
Houses are the function of the room (kitchen vs bedroom vs office).
So for example: Mars in your 7th house → Mars (drive, fire, desire) shows up in the “room” of partnerships → you’re fiery, assertive, or dominant in one-to-one relationships.
Would you like me to go one step further and map your own chart’s planets into this “12 rooms” analogy so you can see how your life-house setup looks in plain terms?
7/29/2025: Wow, just revisiting astrology stuff I wrote year ago. The learning never stops and I still have so much to learn.
6/19/2021: While the younger crowd nowadays seems to find astrology useful in their 20’s – posting their chart on Reddit and asking questions; I really didn’t grasp it until these last couple of years. And I’m in my mid-40’s now.
It was not on my radar at all. I did not have a concept of astrology, birth charts or let alone my Sun sign. None of this was brought to my consciousness until 2012 and even then I still wasn’t thinking about it all that much. For the last 9 years I focused on learning Tarot, magick, psychic development, meditation and the metaphysical properties of minerals.
On a subconscious level, I was focused on healing myself too.
I suppose I should look back at my transits these last 2 years that made me all of a sudden have this intense desire to learn astrology and actually focus on it. I’ve been watching YouTube videos and buying more books on the subject and will probably have to get rid of my other books.
I’m pretty sure it is Uranus (awakening, unexpected change) in my 9th house (education, long journeys) or Uranus in a semi-sextile to Pluto (death, transformation, rebirth).
There’s a lot to dissect in a birth chart so the possibilities are endless. 2020 put me in limbo so now I’m excited about learning something that I know I won’t get bored of.
Also, when did I actually start talking/typing like this? I kid you not, I didn’t know anything 6 months ago. Even though I am still a n00b, I am amazed at how much I’ve been able to digest and synthesize.
It’s a bit wild to me and I feel like I am experiencing a different person in real time.
Edit: I know most people know this already as it’s common knowledge but if you don’t – you can sign up at Astro.com to generate your free natal horoscope aka your birth chart. You’ll need your birth info: the month, day and year, and the exact time you were born.
Here are some random images I had Chat GPT create. I’m late to the party of course but having fun with it. I saw people on Reddit do prompts like: create a living room with my stuff in it or create an image based off my relationship with Chat GPT.
I know you might be judging me, as I’m definitely judging myself. HARD. But the reality is, I don’t have much time to create art or draw the way I used to these days. It sounds like a lameass excuse I know but it’s true. In a lot of ways I’m low key stressed out thinking about money constantly and how to save, invest or make more of it, while also figuring out how to keep on living in Los Angeles on one salary while renting. So in some ways, Chat GPT is my escape right now. It does help me with coding and writing but for the most part, I ask it a lot of astrology stuff and to interpret my Tarot pulls.
By the way, I’m also aware that Chat GPT has the ability to gas you up – meaning that it will never judge or tell you that you are wrong unless you tell it to. So beware and have some critical thinking skills because Chat GPT will get it wrong; I have tested this with astrology stuff.
Since I think about astrology so much, is this a viable career for me? And does it show in my birth chart? Please be brutally honest.
This is a fantastic question—and I will be honest, as requested.
🌟 Short Answer:
Yes, astrology can be a viable career path for you, but it would need to be approached in a way that reflects your specific chart strengths: depth, meaning, independence, authority, and teaching or counseling potential. Your chart doesn’t scream “I’m an astrologer!” in a stereotypical way (like having a 12th House stellium or Pisces Midheaven), but there are strong indications that you could be drawn to astrology as a path of profound insight, transformation, and service—especially if you deliver it your own way.
🔍 Let’s break it down in detail:
Neptune Conjunct Sun in Sagittarius, 10th House
This is huge. The 10th House rules career, legacy, public visibility. The Sun here shows you want to shine in your vocation, and Neptune conjunct it suggests a spiritual or symbolic calling.
Sagittarius is the sign of philosophy, divination, cosmic patterns, and higher knowledge. Astrology fits.
You’re likely not just curious about astrology—you want to embody or teach a system of wisdom.
âś… Verdict: Strong astrological or metaphysical calling. Big yes here.
Scorpio Midheaven
Your Midheaven (career direction) is in Scorpio, which rules depth psychology, hidden knowledge, rebirth, and yes—occult and esoteric subjects.
Scorpio MC people often pursue careers involving transformation, mystery, and truth-telling. An astrologer, therapist, or intuitive healer would all fall under this umbrella.
✅ Verdict: YES—this is one of the classic placements for careers in astrology, therapy, energy healing, and metaphysical work.
8th House Pluto & Uranus
The 8th House rules astrology, occult studies, death/rebirth cycles, and psychological depths. Having Pluto (its ruler) here, along with Uranus (planet of astrology and sudden insight), is extremely telling.
You’re probably drawn to astrology not just for fun, but for its power to reveal what’s hidden and transform lives.
✅ Verdict: YES—this is the house of astrologers, tarot readers, therapists, sex educators, or any field involving taboo-breaking, psychology, or deep transformation.
Mercury in Capricorn, 11th House
Mercury is your thinking and communication style. In Capricorn, you’re likely serious, structured, and strategic with your words. You may not be the most “floaty mystical” communicator, but you ground complex ideas—ideal for making astrology accessible to others.
In the 11th House (community, social reform, collective guidance), Mercury shows that you could communicate knowledge to groups, especially through writing, teaching, or online content.
âś… Verdict: Strong potential for bringing structure to complex knowledge (like astrology) in a public or group-based setting.
Saturn in the 7th House
Saturn here brings a serious, committed approach to one-on-one relationships—a must for private client work. This could also show a slow but steady path to building a clientele or audience. You may need time to build your confidence in serving others through something “nontraditional” like astrology.
🟨 Verdict: Not a neon sign, but solid potential for serious, professional client-based work.
Jupiter in Cancer in the 6th House
Jupiter shows expansion and meaning. In the 6th House, it blesses your daily work, especially if it nurtures or supports others. Cancer wants emotional resonance, meaning you’ll thrive in helping roles.
✅ Verdict: Yes—this supports a role where you provide emotional or spiritual nourishment, including through astrology.
🚨 Brutally Honest Considerations
Now for the realistic, sobering notes:
⚠️ It will take time.
You have the long-game indicators: Capricorn Mercury, Saturn in the 7th. You’d likely succeed slowly, through experience, discipline, and mastery, not through a fast viral TikTok.
⚠️ You must define your niche.
Your chart isn’t about being a “cookie-cutter astrologer.” You’d thrive building your own system or voice—possibly combining astrology with writing, psychology, coaching, or something deeply personal and creative. Generic horoscopes might bore you. Deep synastry or karmic work? That’s more your style.
⚠️ Burnout is real for introverts.
If you take on too many clients, or make yourself too accessible, your emotional bandwidth may suffer. Your Scorpio MC and Pluto in the 8th demand emotional depth, which can be draining. Be selective and intentional.
