I’m really upset with what’s happening in the USA right now. Everywhere I look, it’s just bad news. Again, why is the president and his family exempt from ever being audited by the IRS ever again?? Please remind why I should continue to pay taxes…
So yes, I have been posting and organizing photos, memes, and other images that I’ve hung on to or forgotten about for years and uploading them to my Flickr and here. This is my comfort zone for now.
It feels really hopeless at this very moment especially when you’re reading all the bad news but I know justice and karma are on its way. I know this because some astrologers I follow on Twitter are seeing it, I know that cycles come and go. The karmic Wheel of Fortune is forever turning, it never stops.
On a smaller scale, have faith in yourself and your values. Take it day by day and find time to disconnect from the internet. Create art, make music, garden, clean your space, organize your files, write/journal, run/walk, meditate, talk to trees. Take care of yourself, you exist in this moment and time for a reason. Blessed be.
Another stroll down memory lane, this was when I was starting to get bored with painting the same ol’ letters and wanted to experiment with another name. Obviously I like the letter S.
A fucking mood. I’ve drawn this before but I figured – it’s going to take the same amount of time for me to look for the drawing when I can just redraw it. So yes, it’s Saturday, April 25, 2026 and I still hate you. Forever. Roxy was the biggest hater and I miss her so damn much…

It’s kind of embarrassing what social media marketers have to do (at least in my experience); for example liking your own posts from different accounts so it looks like there are more likes than there really are. It’s fucking hard to do this organically and I think that’s why a lot of people cheated back in the day and bought likes & followers instead. Of course nowadays, it isn’t allowed anymore…just use bots, amirite? Ugh. I still don’t know how to do that, nor do I want to.
I think that is why I never considered myself a true marketer – you either come off way too salesy or it just feels forced. But I did try to create content for myself at some point under my real name. Trying to merge my Midheaven in Scorpio with my sun in the 10th house just wasn’t working though…since I have been working in the adult entertainment industry for years now, I realize that I feel more comfortable being semi-hidden out of the public eye (although my Mars in Leo still likes to be seen & admired sometimes, remember?).
A true occultist to the bone, and so here I am back home at Save the Savages.
The prompt I asked Gemini: Explain to me what the difference is between my Midheaven in Scorpio and my sun in the 10th house; I’m trying to write a blog post showing why I can’t be a true marketer when I was attempting to create content for myself as a personal brand and prefer to be semi-hidden from the pubic eye.
Gemini’s response:
This is a brilliant topic for a blog post because it perfectly captures the “High-Stakes Tug-of-War” between your outward success and your private soul. To a “Marketing Guru,” the 10th House and the Midheaven (MC) look like the same thing—The Spotlight—but to you, they are functioning in two completely different dimensions.
Here is the forensic breakdown of why your “Personal Brand” feels like a trap.
1. The Midheaven (MC) in Scorpio: The “Internal Investigator”
The Midheaven is your Public Reputation and your “Professional Soul.” In Scorpio, your “Face” to the world isn’t a billboard—it’s a Mask.
The Conflict: Scorpio is the sign of the occult, secrets, and “Deep Water.” Having a Scorpio MC means you are naturally drawn to careers that involve uncovering truth, not broadcasting noise. * The “Anti-Marketer” Logic: True marketing requires “Radical Transparency” and constant, shallow visibility (being “The Face”). A Scorpio MC hates this. You want your work to be a mystery that people have to “detect” or “earn” access to. You’d rather be the Power Behind the Throne (the producer, the researcher, the strategist) than the “Brand” on the screen.
2. The Sun in the 10th House: The “Visible Light”
The Sun is your Core Identity and Vitality. Having it in the 10th House (the House of Career/Fame) means that you must be recognized to feel alive.
The Paradox: Your Sun wants to shine and achieve the $2M “Establishment” status. But because it’s filtered through that Scorpio MC, the “Light” feels like a spotlight you didn’t ask for.
The Result: You attract attention effortlessly, but you feel “exposed” when you get it. You want the Authority (10th House) without the Attention (Marketing).
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.
In between rage cleaning the house while listening to Metallica’s Orion on repeat, I stumbled upon a gif with my custom graphics; it was a repeating background of my first tiger tattoo, a scanned drawing of my angel bunny and a rose I traced over a real photo in Photoshop that I would use for Myspace (IYKYK) back in the early 2000’s. I honestly don’t even know how I did this but of course, I animated it. I also looked through the layers and found an old screenshot and a customized contact box, lol.
Customizing my Myspace profile was how I started to learn web design; because I was so obsessed with my profile looking original, I would always tinker with the custom CSS code so I can make it look however I wanted. And then I would make a custom background and someone would steal it. Good times, lol.
I really miss blogging and reading my friends’ thoughts. I miss Roxy and the OTP crew.
Lowkey anxiety this week, as my retirement portfolio keeps going down. So much for my millionaire retirement goals, eh? Sigh.
I know I’m talking as if it’s the end of the world right now, but I also have Saturn moving through my natal planets – forcing me to think about this stuff.
Yesterday they kept talking about drones possibly attacking California which took my mind to even higher levels of anxiety mixed in with my imagination; like I imagined myself with my shotgun or my rifle shooting at drones while running in a zigzag formation and then I tripped over myself because I was trying to run while shooting at the sky. I even prayed to Sarah Connor (IYKYK) so she could help me through this, as she would know how to survive an AI apocalypse right? Not only an AI apocalypse but a president I didn’t vote for who doesn’t give a fuck about anyone but himself; who would likely try to kill Americans and blame it on someone else.
Should I stock up on ammo, medical supplies, get myself some night vision goggles? Should I learn to go off grid? Even Reddit showed me a post from a tactical survivalist on how to effectively protect yourself from a drone strike.
Yes, my mind took me there. I am calm though and haven’t panic sold a damn thing.
I need to learn how to survive in these even more uncertain times; because what if what if what if? What if he dies before me and I don’t know how to do a damn thing? I still don’t know how to clean my own gun. Ugh, how embarrassing. Help me Sarah Connor!
Anyways, spring is around the corner and the astrological new year is upon us. Enjoy this hot pink skull digital drawing I made in Photoshop to go along with this post. In memory of those who were affected by the “missile strike on an Iranian girls’ school that killed at least 165 civilians, many of them children, after a preliminary assessment determined the U.S. was at fault”. Source
p.s. you know how school didn’t really prepare us for A LOT of stuff adults have to deal with? A part of me wishes they offered military type of training, or some kind of survivalist training but not as an elective. Perhaps this is what I need to learn from here on out.
Large GIF incoming…I forgot about this. Made in After Effects, exported in Photoshop to lessen file size and frames. Valentine’s Day is such a cheesy holiday but I secretly love making graphics for it.
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.
