Oh, also, I don’t know if it’s the 1 degree Aries ascendant or not, but this eclipse season has been rough. So rough. Definitely tempered in the forge kind of vibes.

Finally, a few days ago, I thought about it terms of my rising sign. I’m 1 degree of Aries. The beginning of the beginning. My sun and moon are not just the darkness; more like the liminal pause before the dawn. And trust me, the association with The Fool card tracks, too. (2)

So, I was born on a solar eclipse (and thus, new moon). The imagery of a dark sun and dark moon sounded awesome, but also vaguely ominous (not to mention that some give serious side-eye when they hear it). I felt like it was a message, but I couldn’t decipher it. Until! (1)

I haven’t mentioned how I was literally looking forward to Kendrick’s show for months and it was *chef’s kiss.*

Hmm. Turns out it’s difficult to be social and make new friends when you’re feeling bleak and grim. I knew this already in theory, but usually anxiety is my jam, not depression. This is new and a muted, gray version of exciting.

I just learned from a podcast that cosmos and cosmetics come from the same root and mean “a well-arranged whole.” However since I was listening I first heard it as “a well-arranged hole.”

Why. Why did I decide to actually listen to it.

For like a week, every time I walked into the kitchen, I thought I smelled chicken korma, even though I haven’t had any in months. Finally solved the mystery: it’s the Mrs. Meyers Gingerbread-scented soap. Ginger, yes. Gingerbread, not necessarily. And now I’m hungry.

Something that’s still missing from history lessons, particularly for kids, is primary sources. I know there might be a reading comprehension mismatch but hell, even a movie-style reenactment using sources as scripts would be better than one paragraph summarizing something vital.
