Tarot & Astrology

I said what I said. Every earth sign I know is the personality form of a magical little fairy garden. Except maybe capricorns

In addition, what are your experiences with zodiac signs that are stereotypically seen as intelligent?

We just seem to have the same wit and mannerisms and similar hobbies as well as the escapism lol

ARIES

"Never tell an Aries they are wrong. Aries is the one sign that will just deck you. They don't mess around with you. At the same time, they are also impossible to get rid of. If you have an Aries in your life and try to cut the cord, you cannot shake them. They are persistent and will not let you.

"Like all fire signs, Aries are very loyal but they have a tendency to become a bit fanatical. If an Aries gets religion, God help you. Because they are going to give it to you! They are not crazy fanatics but they get on one binge and it's a lifelong one. They don't switch horses midstream. They will put their allegiance someplace and that's it - it will not waver.

"Aries have a beautiful, almost charming way of leading with their chin. They step in where angels fear to tread and they almost beg you to go along with them. If someone says not to go somewhere, an Aries will say 'forget it! I'm going over there!'

"Aries also have the naivete to give others the most beautiful openings for jokes. A very beautiful thing about them is they not only laugh with you but they can laugh at themselves. Not many signs can do that very well. And they can make a joke out of their own embarrassment- they have that natural charm.

"Aries will prove a point to the nth degree when speaking or writing. They will go over and over something bc they're convinced you're too dumb to get it the first time. They feel compelled to repeat something 4 times in 4 different ways. You will finally say, "ok I give up, whatever you want!" What's amazing though is that once you have proven your intelligence to an Aries they will usually back down and not hog the show as much. But my God, the effort needed to prove it!

"You never want to turn your back on an Aries when they're talking to you. That is the most horrible affront bc they know that what they say is important for you to hear. And if you turn your back on them or cut them off, that is an unforgivable sin.

"It is best to let Aries work independently. They don't work well with someone hovering around them. Just tell them what you want done and let them do it. No fire sign likes to be dominated but especially the Aries.

"If you ever go into battle, you want an Aries on your side. Leos think they have big mouths but Aries far surpass them. Never go up against a Leo or an Aries, especially together."

LEOS

"Leos have a strong degree of fidelity. Possibly the strongest in the zodiac. They become completely distraught over broken relationships and take guilt totally upon themselves bc of any break in a close relationship. Leos are very idealistic about marriage and if they marry more than once, they will carry the burden of the broken marriage for years.

"Leos have a way of saying things with a sarcastic flair but they're totally honest and justice minded, just like Libras.

'Leos can become wrathful if someone they love is hurt. All fire signs are like this. They can say things to others but God help you if you say it to them. If you are ever in a fight, you want a fire sign with you. There is no other sign you want except maybe a Cancer.

"Leos will barge right into a conversation bc they are so afraid of forgetting something. Leos are very intelligent and they know a little about alot. They are great conversationalists and they love parties. There is nothing more attentive than a Leo who feels you have something interesting to say.

"Leos put those they love on pedestals. They have a way of telling everyone else about the person they love but frequently forget to direct these emotions to the loved one. They feel that would make them more vulnerable. Their best friend could come along and say, 'I heard what you said about me.' And the Leo will say 'yeah, you're ok'. But when talking to a 3rd party, they will eulogize you.

"Leos long for material gain but often don't want to work too hard for it. Leos also don't like getting their hands dirty. Most Leos involved in charity work would rather earn money from afar and then send it to the needing party.

"Leos have magnificent voices and command attention easily which suits their strong flair for the dramatic quite well. They are expert debaters and love to weave a trap around the people they are arguing with. They make brilliant attorneys. Effortlessly capturing the attention of any audience, like a courtroom for example, is second nature to them.

"Leos have a brilliant sense of humor. They also tease unmercifully but will stop if even one tear is shed. They have tempers but usually their anger arises out of deep hurt rather than malice.

"Nothing disturbs a Leo as much as having to deal with mechanical gadgets that do not work. They are crushed by any failed DIY projects. They also have a love of games but they really hate to lose. Sometimes to keep the peace it can be best to let the Leo win (or any fire sign for that matter...)"

SAGITTARIUS

"Sagittarians are very analytical and make particularly good doctors, biologists, researchers, etc. You will find a large number of psychiatrists under this sign.

"Sag has an endearing quality where they constantly ask, 'I'm alright, aren't I? I feel good, don't i?" They constantly need to be validated yet they aren't a borderline personality. They like being soothed by others. If there is any sign in the zodiac filled with anxiety, it's the Sagittarius. Unless they are completely quieted down by air and water in their chart. Sag are very anxiety ridden and it's possible this is bc they think and process so much from their intellect.

"Sag are extremely quick witted. They not only enjoy a joke but they can tell one very well. They have highly developed senses of humor. Sags write very well if not a bit scientifically. They can be a bit wordy. You'll say to a Sag 'would you please get to the point?' They go on and on bc they want to make sure they are covering all bases. If you ask them to repeat one word from a book, they will repeat the entire book instead.

"A Sagittarius will explain and postulate on every subject. 'Now, if it happens this way...now if it happens this way...or if it happens this way'. They want all the bases covered. They don't like loose ends.

"Sagittarians are the kind of people who will come to a class and say, 'I'll pay you after I find out if I like it.' This is typical behavior for them.

"Like libras, sag are a very 'don't fence me in' sign. They love their freedom. You never want to make them feel like they have no freedom. What's interesting about them is if you are a freedom loving person with a sag, they become possessive. Yet if you become possessive of them, they will run for the hills. People involved with sag may often find themselves standing in front of that person saying, 'what do you want from me?"

"Its never boring to be around a Sag. They are incredibly witty and people tend to gravitate toward them. You will usually find them at the center of a group holding court."

"Sagittarians, like scorpios, can be quite vindictive. They are the kind of people who will say to you, 'I haven't spoken to my mother or sister in 20 years and I don't care to'. You'll ask if they feel bad about this and they will say no. They'll say it to you like this, 'they committed a mortal sin - they interfered in my life.' And a Sagittarius will simply erase them from their life. They cease to exist for the sag. If you're at dinner with Sag, and all of a sudden, the sister shows up, Sagittarius will get up and walk out the door.

"Full blown Sagittarians can get away with saying things others cannot. They are the kind of sign that can level the most vicious insult at someone and it won't dawn on that person until days later, if it ever lands at all. But if anyone else says the exact same thing, they'll get punched in the face. It's not uncommon to get excoriated by a Sagittarius and then say 'thank you.'

Edit: the above excerpts were originally written by the late great Sylvia Browne

CANCERS

"Cancers tend to be immaculate in their grooming but quite messy in their surroundings. Cancers are also very selective in interpersonal relationships, probably one of the most particular signs of the zodiac.

"Cancers at age 20 will drive like someone who is 85. They drive with both hands white knuckling the wheel.

"If you ever tell a cancer they can't do something, they will immediately say 'why not?' then go right out and do it.

"Cancers do have moods but they have been given a very bad reputation in astrology bc although they're prone to moodiness, a cancer will actually try harder to get out of that mood. Most Cancers realize they can be moody can work themselves out of it.

"Cancers will categorize - by date, hour and minute - every hurt ever dealt to them. The nice thing about them is that they will forgive you. But they will never forget about the event.

"Cancers can have an obsession with appearing stupid sometimes so much so that they can fulfill their own dreaded prophecy of being dumb.

"Cancers have a beautiful laugh. They're usually amused by anything not in correct order. Their sensitivity usually prevents them from being practical jokers but they lean more towards the mental side of humor - anything that is displaced or offkilter. Humor is a catharsis for them - they view it as something else displaced bc Cancers themselves frequently walk around most of their lives feeling displaced. This is bc they are fighting their mood changes. What's extraordinary about them is that this leaves them predisposed toward feelings of empathy and compassion for others.

They are very loving and family oriented. They are tremendously protective of their family unit or anyone they have absorbed into their family unit. If you ever harm the loved one of a cancer - watch out. They will react like a bear protecting its cub even if its a friend whom they have deemed "like a second sister."

SCORPIOS

"Scorpios are very goal oriented. You will find that some of the world's greatest leaders have been of this sign. It is true that the scorpio has a criminal mind, but these individuals can turn it to their advantage and do very well in business. Scorpios are vital to all forms of business and , like virgos , will subliminate their energy into their goals. For example, you will never see a scorpio become a real estate agent and stay in that position for long. The scorpio will become a broker and have their own little company.

"Scorpios tend to be very secretive, more so than Pisces. They're even secretive within themselves. Pisces will at least try to verbalize their thoughts. Scorpio won't bother - they can't. This may be bc of their unbridled sexual energy. They really don't know why they are that way.

"Scorpios want to change things - they want to change the world. Now, they don't want to change their homes or have their bathroom retiled- they won't bother with that. They want to change their city's metro rail system, their community, and also God. God is probably a scorpio.

"You can suffer around scorpios and they won't have much sympathy for you. Paradoxically, they may express sympathy if you have a hang nail but will show no concern if you're bleeding from a gaping wound. Scorpio doctors are the worst bc you'll go in with a headache and they'll say that it might be a brain tumor. And you say, 'why would you tell me that!?' And they'll say, 'to prepare you. I don't want you to be upset.' Scorpios don't think of their actions as unkind - they are simply preparing you.

"Scorpios do not usually suffer much in the way of insecurity and can come across as a bit pompous. If you think Leos have a regal bearing, Scorpios come in like 'here I am!' and expect to be greeted with shouts of 'hurrah! hurrah!'

"Scorpios rarely become senile and are fastidious cleaners. But when they clean, they're going to dust the fan blades of the ceiling fan and the window blinds while leaving the major rooms untouched.

"Scorpios can lie to you with all truthfulness. They work within their own set of truths and they don't think it's wrong bc it's not wrong to THEM. You can say to a scorpio, "that's wrong!" And they will give you a perfect idealized answer that is absolutely right.

"Like geminis, scorpio loves education and you will find them going to school for 5,000 years. Another trait they have in common with gemini is their stamina - they can have 3, 4 different life projects all going on simultaneously.

PISCES

I'll come back and finish pisces tomorrow. I have to go to sleep.

Once again, excerpts are brought to you courtesy the written works of Sylvia Browne.

I know synastry is very complicated but I was just wondering who is in love with whom lol. I am a Scorpio Sun, Aries moon and cancer rising in love with a Libra sun, Virgo moon virgo rising ✨️

Any other sag feel like we don’t talk about our feelings because we understand they are ever fleeting. Like I can be passionate and fiery about something in one moment and in the next it’ll go away like taking a breath in then out so why talk about it?

Lately I’ve been asked to verbalize my feelings about various things and I find myself struggling to give sufficient breakdowns on what describes my feelings

Yesterday turned out to be unexpected when it comes to the readings and I enjoyed doing it. I extended to unlimited from Y/N to five cards

Feel free to hit me up on DMs! 💖💕

(I’ll be doing the remaining readings on the DMs but other than 12:31 AM CST I’m not taking anymore)

(asking for a friend) :)

I'm a loud, opinionated control freak who cries in private.

Or someone who has Aries in their chart?

It doesn't have to be a serious hatred, just some rivalry.

Start with me: Mercury in pisces, who NEVER got along with mercury in virgo (they were my bully) lol

The ascendant, contrary what to what many seem to believe, is much more than the appearance/first impression. In my opinion, it's a lens. The way a person perceives the world through their own eyes. It can in turn, affect a persons style or appearance because a persons thoughts can affect facial features and such. The reason I believe it's a lens is because I've known a lot of Scorpio ascendants in my life, the universe pulls us together often. I've noticed many reoccurring themes with them, one of them being paranoia or a dark perception of things, often assuming the worst in situations.. Many times they thought I was "attacking" them when in reality that wasn't the case at all. Another common theme with Scorpio ascendants is their tendency to wear black clothing, which is a preference not a physical characteristic. They also tend to possess much depth, more so than other placements. And as a Taurus ascendant my outlook is much more calm and I enjoy the beauty of this world, nature, loyalty being extremely important to me, etc.. typical Taurus traits. For these reasons I believe the ascendant is our outlook, how we perceive the world, and how we will approach it.

I graduated college and I’m taking a gap year before graduate school and am trying to decide if I want to live with my friend and be on my own for the next year or go back home. Ive never lived on my own before and my parents got into my head about becoming a “real” adult and being on my own so I started thinking about moving back and how maybe it would be better. I asked tarot two questions. The first was “what will my life look like if I move back home?” I pulled the devil, 9 of swords, four of pentacles, and ten of wands. The second was “what will my life look like if I live on my own with my friend?” I pulled the high priestess, three of wands, 7 of pentacles, and 6 of wands! I just looked at the cards and laughed because the decision to live with my friend and actually try to be on my own has never been more clear. I don’t think moving back home would be as horrible as the cards are making it seem to be, but I definitely think the cards and my own intuition are strongly guiding away from that decision. Also don’t worry, I’m not basing this life decision entirely on tarot. I just wanted some guidance since I was becoming worried I was making the wrong choice.
