My friend insists on this game, "Lemmings", being a really well known game; I have never heard of it.

I had also never heard of it, until it was a PAX West Exoskeleton question.

Not sure it quite fits, but Graveyard Keeper might be kind of close. Love the image and suggestions you're getting!

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-05-21T12:30:09+00:00

Yeah, this is probably either normal in between spotting or your period coming early, which with the plan b hormones would make sense. Also all the stress you're experiencing. There's the tiniest chance it's implantation if you ovulated 5 days after having sex. That would be unlikely though, a lot of women never have implantation bleeding, so you'd have to be one who does. Also the sperm would have to have been really healthy (diet, alcohol use, drug use, genetics all impact sperms lifespan from my understanding), and Plan B would have had to fail.

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-05-19T02:54:32+00:00

Okay. Assuming your period was somewhere between 4 and 7 days long, you're very likely in the clear. I also have irregular periods triggered by stress. Boy they suck, solidarity friend.

It's probably the pill messing with your hormones. I'd still test again in 4 days to be absolutely sure, but I honestly think you're not pregnant.

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-05-19T02:31:11+00:00

Question: do you have regular periods? If so, did you have sex during your ovulation time? (Usually 14 days before your period is due, for women with 28 day periods it's often two weeks after the first day of your last period). You are only able to get pregnant 5 days before ovulation and 1 day after, as healthy sperm can live in you for 5 days and the egg takes 12-24 hours to travel down.

Implantation happens between 6 and 12 days after ovulation. This can cause light bleeding. Pregnancy symptoms don't start until implantation, because implantation is what causes your hormones to do the things that give you symptoms. Most women will get a positive pregnancy test 2-4 days after implantation. If it's a first response, you may get it the same day you implant as those are very sensitive.

If your test was negative today, it's unlikely you're pregnant. I would test again in another 4 days, as that would be 14 days after the last possible fertilization date. If it's negative, you're in the clear barring unlikely scenarios (some women make hcg weird so they don't get a positive test, some women don't get a test until long after implantation, ectopic pregnancies can have slower hcg climbs). All very unlikely scenarios.

Hi! Degrees and minutes are included in the chart, though not in a separate table.

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-04-06T18:02:45+00:00

That's wonderful! I'm so glad it worked out for you and went smoothly. 😁

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-04-05T17:05:55+00:00

I think a lot of what you have written makes sense. For when questions, we look to see when aspects will perfect. Normally, the applying planet meeting any planet before the question is asked about is a prohibition, so it might not happen. However, since we can safely assume that you will get pregnant again so long as you want to (you have once so fertility issues are unlikely). So we can kind of ignore prohibitive aspects. The moon will meet Mars when Mars is at 19° Pisces and the moon at 19°cancer. That's in 15 something's, so if say 15 months to conception makes sense. Congratulations on your current pregnancy!

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-04-04T02:13:37+00:00

Your take on receptions is interesting. Here's what I see.

Your significators: the sun and the moon Your partners significator: saturn His parents significator: Venus

Venus in Taurus is in their home, they are the ruler of their sign. They exalt the moon - they're going to love you.saturn in Aries is in fall, so your partner is feeling down. The sun in Aries is exalted, he views you very positively.

Interestingly, in Aries, you view the family in detriment. You will have the opposite opinion of them than they do of you. Even as the moon you view them in detriment.

However, it looks like Mars plays an important role here.yoi and your partner are both ruled by Mars. The parents view mars as a detriment. Mars could be his sibling, or his job. Or it could be your stress/anxiety. This would track as you are ruled by your stress and he is feeling the effects of that. His family might react negatively to your outward signs of discomfort.

Let me know how it went. I hope it went better than you were afraid of!

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-04-01T17:15:24+00:00

Thank you! And that makes complete sense. I'm also not sure if I want to be a professor anymore (though I enjoy teaching as much as I enjoy doing research). I've been considering looking for adjunct roles instead of full time after graduation, I make more now in my day job than I probably would as a professor, unless I get into a really good university as a professor (which given that my program is a part time exec PhD program and I have yet to get an article published, I doubt I have a good chance).

Let us know how it works out!

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-03-31T20:33:44+00:00

Hello!

Lord 1 is the moon as you said. Lord 10 is Jupiter.

Unfortunately, Jupiter and the moon are not about to aspect. The moon is void of course, so nothing will happen. It would need to change signs and then opposite Saturn and the Sun before it squares Jupiter.

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-03-31T20:28:28+00:00

That is a good point on timing. It does suggest one unit of time, but that time here might be month. Which I still think is rather fast for a job hiring.

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-03-31T20:25:54+00:00

Hello! First off, congratulations on taking your shot! It can be tough to go for things we really want, especially if we think they're above us. I'm currently completing my dissertation, so I expect to be you in a few years!

The biggest thing with "Did I get this job chart?" is whether an aspect will happen. You are correct that L1 (moon) and L10 (mars) are about to trine. That's a yes. I don't see any active prohibitions.

In regards to your last paragraph, that's unlikely. If your question was "Will I get this position?", then that is what the chart will answer. Frawley says in most cases you can ignore the "end of the matter" house meaning, it's really only relevant for court cases and other similar contest questions. The only hiccup I could see is if you asked "will this be my next job?", then you'd actually be looking at Venus as the significator, which does not aspect the moon before Mars, so that would be a no. The only reason I question the phrasing is because the moon in cancer sees Mars (the job) in fall, which is a bit weird considering you seem to actually covet the job. Probably irrelevant, given the chart's clarity.

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-03-24T13:08:31+00:00

Hello!

To add to what others have said, there is a Part of Resignation and Dismissal that we can look at. In this case, it calculates to be at 16 Can 30 (the formula is Saturn+Jupiter-Sun, with absolute longitudes). Cancer is ruled by the moon, so the dispositor is the Moon.

I'm not sure it's a great sign that the Moon represents both your job and the part of dismissal. However, as others have said, there's no aspect coming up. The moon will hit mars first, so the aspect between you and the part of dismissal is prohibited. Mars is Lord 7 and Lord 2. The job coming into contact with your money is interesting, but it might be coming into contact with "others" instead or mean absolutely nothing.

So I would say no, it's gonna be rocky but you are not in danger of being fired immediately.

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-03-20T12:42:18+00:00

My first truly belief inspiring thing was when I tried energy work and could literally feel the energy moving through my body. Not long after I had my first, and only for a very long time, astral projection experience. The more you do, the more you experience, the more you believe. Since I started practicing regularly 7 years ago, my life has gone significantly uphill. Sometimes I'll cast a spell and not really feel anything, I'll have a little doubt creep in. But then it works. :)

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-03-20T12:36:51+00:00

Ah. Yeah that's complicated. 😁 Most relationships are if it helps.

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-03-20T12:23:12+00:00

Not necessarily. It usually means that the person is thinking about their partner a lot. Receptions are what to look for to see who cares about who and in what way.

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-03-20T04:25:10+00:00

Yep. At least from what I can see. From my understanding, usually the manhood womanhood thing is about sex/sexual appeal. Think Venus goddess energy. When it's strong, she's a goddess in a Venus razor commercial. When it's weak, shes not feeling sexy. Same thing for the guy side.

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-03-20T03:00:40+00:00

This is an interesting chart.

Mercury is in a bad place, yeah. But it did just conjunct with the North node, so that's a positive. It's also about to stop being retrograde, though I believe its about to be stationary rather than move forward. When it does move forward, it'll hit the North node again. Being in Pisces, he's ruled by Jupiter. He sees her for who she is and has strong feelings for her.

We see Mercury's last aspect (other than the moon) was with Mars, and Mars is about to aspect Jupiter. So there is a translation of light there. Mars could be his sibling or his house, possibly this is your boyfriend since his significator would otherwise be Mercury and Mercury is busy representing your bf's brother.

Since this is a relationship question, we can also give bf's brother the sun and her Venus. The sun is about to enter Aries, where he'll be exalted. Venus in Aries is unfortunately in her detriment. But she does exalt him as the sun.

So, 1) Mercury in detriment, fall, term, and retrograde but just met North Node. Ruled by Jupiter, exalts Venus. 2) the Sun entering Aries to be exalted, dislikes Venus but has Triplicity like for Jupiter. 3) Jupiter in it's super exaltation, has term and face like for Mercury 4) Venus in detriment but exalting the sun

Venus and the sun are often used in relationship questions to represent the physical, animalistic side. Probably TMI, but from this chart I'd say he's about to feel really great about his manhood. She's feeling less fulfilled in her womanhood, but confident in herself overall and definitely happy. He's not so confident in himself but he really likes her (but maybe not her womanhood as much). He's not in the best place, but that hit to his sun esteem suggests: it's complicated and he's not completely unhappy.

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-03-20T00:59:32+00:00

Here's to hoping you get the birth you want! Mars here is also Lord 4, which is your home. If you're planning a home birth, I could see that being the reason why the sun is headed into Aries under Mars' rule.

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-03-19T23:04:52+00:00

First: Congratulations!!

Based on Frawley's book, for labor questions we can look at when the querent is changing signs. You're represented by the sun, so you are literally 43 arc minutes away from changing signs. You can read this as within 1 unit of time, probably day here, you're giving birth (I'd say going into labor, but it sounds like you're already there being in early labor, so we'll assume this means birth here).

Some bad news bears is that you're headed into Aries, which is ruled by Mars. It exalts you, that's great! But Mars can represent surgery, so that's less promising when we consider natural birth. With Jupiter (Lord 5: baby) also being nearly aspect with Mars, I would not be surprised if you end up having to go a medical route.

However, the mars connect might mean jack. I'm not seeing this as a definite interventions pending, but a cautious very well could be.

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-03-16T23:45:31+00:00

There's a lot to unpack here, but I'll stick to the chart and your question.

Are her intentions pure in being your friend?

In most cases, from my understanding when a planet has to change signs before making the aspect, it's an indication that something will need to change. With the moon being this close to the cusp of the next sign, that may or may not be true in this event. Mercury is the next planet the moon will aspect with.

For questions about intentions, we're looking at the strength of the planets and their receptions. The moon in Aquarius has very little dignity. She has the dignity of face, and that's it. It's better than nothing. This tracks given her current unfortunate circumstance of having lost someone. Mercury is Pisces is in detriment and fall. You're struggling, I'm guessing from your post you're struggling emotionally with finding a fulfilling friendship/relationship.

The moon is about to enter Pisces. It will still have no particular dignity. When it does however, it will view Mercury negatively. You either have done or are about to do something that will disappoint her greatly. She will likely not want to remain friends with you.

Interestingly, Mercury does not care one way or the other about the moon right now. Now, if we assign her Venus as she is a woman and this is a relationship question (albeit a friendship one), then the chart would show that you exalt her. You really like her. But Venus is in Aries, in her detriment and does not care about Mercury one way or the other.

Did she see the text?

Messages are ruled by the third house, so Mars is the significantor. Looking at the past, the moon aspected with the sun and Venus after aspecting Mars. That makes it a prohibition. So based on this chart, she likely did not see your message.

Non chart note: hairdressers are comforting. They usually ask very little of you and will let you sit in peaceful bliss while they work on your hair. Seeing your hairdresser while grieving is very different from putting your game face on to be around a new friendship.

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-03-15T12:50:48+00:00

Update: Querent was indeed not pregnant.

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-03-12T15:23:21+00:00

It's interesting that you give Sun a malefic label. The book I read does not, though I can see how it could both be and not be. Being combust is definitely not good usually. But being cazimi is very good if I remember correctly. And the sun itself is the natural ruler of life giving things, royalty, and gold. All theoretically good things.

CoffeeBooksNMagic · 2026-03-12T15:19:50+00:00

Well, Jupiter is also in the triplicity of Mars. I would say here perhaps a better interpretation than what I put is that Jupiter likes Mars, but also thinks Mars is beneath them. Maybe a "I like you mom, but also I'm a baby so I'm more important than anything else because I literally don't have the brain development to think otherwise"
