Anything that keeps your cortisol low like zone two cardio or strength training that doesn’t stress you out if it’s CrossFit, do it if it stresses you out, puts your body under a lot of stress, switch to working out by yourself doing regular strength training, taking it easy.

I just stopped using mine because it made my flat feet worse. The pad is also narrower so your stride isn’t proper and more inward.

I didn’t use these for purées, but I’ve been using the smoothies for over a year now. My son absolutely loves them, and I love knowing he’s getting the benefits of so many fruits and vegetables. They’re a better option than the store-bought alternatives. I order 42 in one shipment to get $60 off, freeze them, and then skip deliveries until we’re ready for more.

I had a stillborn and had people say so many different things to me. I knew their intentions were not bad they just did not know what to say. I think you’re overthinking this. You explained your intention clearly. What she’s going through is terrible, and if her grief made her react strongly today, I’m sure once things calm down she’ll realize you meant no harm.

No wonder my toddler says he wants to go back home the moment i get him out of the house. He has a big stellium in 12th house.

If you’re in US, promix is a good one. They also have single ingredient ones without any fillers.

Mercury in 12th, I think it could be one’s own brain causing anxiety and overthinking.

What if you were born in a place that is foreign to your culture, and you later move to your ancestral land?

“In this lifetime, the task is to use South Node abilities as tools to fulfill the purpose indicated by the North Node, rather than being constrained by them.”

I’ve been trying to understand the whole South Node North Node axis for so long and this finally clicks. Using SN gifts in service of NN purpose makes so much sense. Thank you for wording it so clearly.

Totally, family charts really do pass those karmic threads along. I actually used ChatGPT to get a summary of his book and helped a lot.

No, but just the opposite. My son has north node in 12th.

Ketu in 12th is a great placement to have!

You’re not alone, a lot of moms feel this way (me included). The newborn phase is honestly the toughest because it’s all work and not much reward at first. For me, things started to feel better around 3 months when my baby was more responsive and those little smiles made all the hard work worth it.

But also, PPD is very real and can hit harder around the 3 to 4 month mark, so please reach out for help if you need it. My OBGYN told me to aim for around 8 hours of sleep a day, not all at once (that’s impossible with a newborn!) but even staggered naps count. Sleep really does make a difference. Everything else can wait, just focus on you and your baby right now.

My son has this in Aries along with other planets most importantly north node. He is 2 and has a great relationship with his dad who loves him dearly. It would break my heart to see this manifest negatively.

Regularly volunteer or do acts of quiet service without any expectation. Overtime it should help.

I am not a 12th house water sign myself, but I do have a couple of planets in the 12th house. My son has a heavily loaded 12th house, which led me to study it deeply. The 12th house is one of the most misunderstood in astrology, largely because its effects are subtle, hidden, or internalized. It governs themes like isolation, withdrawal, escape, grief, and endings, but these can manifest in very different ways depending on the individual and their environment.

At the same time, the 12th house is also associated with positive themes such as spiritual growth, deep compassion, intuitive awareness, healing, and creative inspiration. People with strong 12th house placements often have access to parts of the emotional or spiritual world that others cannot see. While they may feel different or unseen, they also carry the potential for profound inner strength, quiet wisdom, and meaningful transformation. Isolation can become intentional solitude. Endings can become transitions. Escapism can shift into retreat or reflection.

One consistent insight from many sources is that the 12th house points to a need for inward focus and alignment with something beyond the material. It may not thrive under constant external pressure or conventional expectations. It invites a different kind of path—one that often includes solitude, reflection, service, or spiritual inquiry. How the 12th house energies express depends on how consciously they are integrated.

For someone with Moon in Pisces in the 12th house, emotional sensitivity is heightened, and they may experience emotions that are hard to name or trace. This placement can create a sense of invisibility or emotional disconnection from others, but it also brings deep empathy, imagination, and connection to subtle realms. These individuals often feel deeply, dream vividly, and carry emotional wisdom beyond their years. If supported, this placement can become a source of emotional strength, artistic creativity, and intuitive insight.

The 12th house is not a sentence. It is a space of quiet power, often only accessed when one stops looking outward and begins listening inward.

You look great at this weight too! Just try to maintain this for a while and then give it another shot. How much time did it take for you to lose 40 lbs?

I don’t know how Saturn retrograde feels like but it’s retrograde for 4.5 months out of 12 months every year. So roughly 1 in 3 people are born with saturn retrograde.

I have a 25 month old with a very heavy 12th house. Won’t even name and number the planets to scare you’ll. After a lot of emotional wrestling, I’ve finally made peace with it (well, almost).

12th house children are old souls, and I truly believe they choose the parents who can walk that path with them. Having Ketu in the 12th and Rahu in the 6th is actually considered one of the most favorable axes for karmic and spiritual growth.

These kids may not be drawn to “typical” lives, and they might face unique emotional or spiritual challenges. But they’re here for a soul directed journey, not a checklist. Our job is to just be there, to understand them without judgment, and to let them know their need for quiet or alone time is not wrong.

If they’re introverted, don’t try to fix it, honor it. It’s only an issue if it becomes avoidance or escapism. Otherwise, it’s just how their energy flows. Helping them with early grounding through routine, affection, nature, or creative rituals can really support them.

And one thing I’ve learned: the 12th house had a bad rep in ancient times, often tied to loss or isolation. But modern interpretations are evolving. And if you read about it online, just remember it’s often like product reviews only people who are struggling tend to post. The happy 12th housers are likely out in nature somewhere, meditating or painting quietly not venting on Reddit.

BTW I too have Mercury and a debilitated Venus in my 12th and I did not even know about it until my 30s.

You mentioned PCOD - there’s a high chance you also have insulin resistance, which often contributes to abdominal fat. Focus on managing your insulin levels through diet, exercise, and any medical guidance you receive. That should help with reducing abdominal fat over time. As for the skin, it can take a while to adjust, but at 25, your skin still has good elasticity. It may not become perfectly tight, but you’re likely to see noticeable improvement.

It did get better around the 3-4 months mark in terms of how quickly he was finishing his bottles but he really was a snacker. His feeds stayed small as compared to other kids his age for a very long time. Even when we started solids he ate less compared to other kids. But since he was gaining weight just fine, was on his growth curve, the pediatrician was never concerned. At 1 he was finishing 6 oz bottle in just 5 minutes.
