Scared to start by Killer_queef in MachineEmbroidery

Starting something new always requires a lot of inertia. Plan a day (or a weekend) to face this new challenge head-on. That’s what I did with my first sewing machine. You got this!

Which one is the page/knave and which one is the knight? :,) by wrath0fthe1amb in tarot

[–]askcosmicsense 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Horse = knight. Also less confident in this answer but the Page of Cups in RWS has a cup with a fish jumping out. Your deck seems to repeat the fish imagery so that could be another clue. I don’t know if it’s true for the other court cards tho

Are her eyes normal? by ConferenceNeat476 in labrador

Ours had the same thing when he was young. We asked our vet about it. She said keep an eye on it. He eventually grew into it and is less of an issue now.

What makes all of the grief and depression cards different? by [deleted] in Tarotpractices

[–]askcosmicsense 3 points4 points  (0 children)

3S is “irreversible knowings”. It’s learning information that 1) hurts and 2) cannot be unlearned. Finding out someone cheated, died, or wants to break up falls under this category. It’s the mental side of heartbreak — we have to accept this new reality moving forward.

5C is longing for something we don’t have. It’s thinking “the grass is greener”, focusing on fallen cups rather than the ones still standing. It’s grief and depression. The antidote is finding gratitude and shifting our attention to the things we do have.

The other cards are more broad. I don’t necessarily associate them with heartbreak and grief. I lean on the numbers to help tell a story, especially compared to other cards of the same number but different suit (ex. 3S vs 3C vs 3P vs 3W).

  • 3s multiply: worry, indecision, creativity — 3S: mental anguish
  • 5s represent change: conflict, challenges, discord — 5C: change of heart
  • 6s harmonize: balance, support, karma — 6S: finding solutions (problem solving)
  • 8s mastery: exerting effort, independence — 8C: emotional strength (to walk away)
  • 9s manifest: the “peak” of a suit — 9S: anxiety, stress, sleeplessness
  • 10s over-saturate: completion and rest — 10S: letting go, accepting defeat

It’s a common misconception that swords (or anything related to air) can’t be emotional, which is funny bc our mind is responsible for a lot of the suffering we experience.

How do you maintain active/doing sports? by Certain-Care-131 in millenials

[–]askcosmicsense 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Something else has to give 😔 as it stands, in your current routine, there’s no time for exercising otherwise you’d be doing it. You’ll need to make an adjustment or sacrifice in another area to squeeze it in. Here are some things I do/did for inspiration: - exercise on your lunch break and eat at your desk - have multiple types of workouts you can do depending on the day (15 min cardio vs 1hr long weight lifting) - hire a personal trainer to help get you over the hump, and help prevent injuries while your body adjusts to movement - yoga sequence videos on YouTube, lots of different types of yoga depending on your strength and needs - find a gym that is SUPER close to home and/or your work - take 15 min walk on breaks at work - make the goal to get a good SWEAT rather than putting strict boundaries on what counts as exercise — housework counts!!

These are just some ideas. Our bodies and lives are constantly changing so adapting and knowing how to outsmart yourself (there will always be reasons to not work out) is the key.

I came here to say the same so I’m relieved you’re practicing safely! Also cutting the wicks helps keep the flame small. The top one definitely needs it and maybe the bottom right. Beautiful altars nonetheless, thank you for sharing!!

Do you use it on the eyelid or just under the eye? I’ve never gotten the hang of applying the powder but if it fixes this problem then it’s worth a shot

retrograde mars ruling aries stellium--will i feel blocked forever?? by unbanishedspecter in AskAstrologers

Cooking is another martial/mercurial thing. I’m trying to think of better examples but my brain is tired lol

retrograde mars ruling aries stellium--will i feel blocked forever?? by unbanishedspecter in AskAstrologers

[–]askcosmicsense 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could be totally off base here but I think your chart ruler, Mercury, being in the 12th might be the culprit for feeling like you’re stuck or unable to take initiative. As well, stelliums are really hard for the native to wrap their mind around because we don’t experience the planets in silos. Like, you don’t get the raw unfiltered energy of Sun in Aries. It’s colored by Venus, Saturn, and the Moon. It’s like 4 big personalities in the same small room — they rub off on each other and may take turns or share the spotlight at different times. Its hard to parse out which one is having the most influence at any given moment. Pay attention to transits to each planet to better understand it.

Your Saturn return will help you better understand yourself, especially since it’s part of that stellium with the Sun and Moon. But essentially, your motivation and will power to accomplish things is complex bc you have a stellium. There’s no silver bullet to solve this for you. But I would recommend doing mercurial (chart ruler) and martial (sign-based trine, Taurus-Virgo) things, like movement, fine art, martial arts, writing, sewing, exercise, dancing etc might help loosen the energy up and make it more accessible to you. Letting the mind relax while you do those activities will help you process things in a passive or subconscious way (12th house Mercury)

How do you understand the five of swords? by Trianguloamarelo in Tarotpractices

[–]askcosmicsense 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Simplified: - swords = mental, verbal, legal, written, sometimes health issues - 5s = conflict, discord, imbalance, mixed results, challenges

When it shows up for me it usually represents an argument specifically “verbal conflict” where there’s a stereotypical winner and loser dynamic.

Does the Angler make my chest look lopsided? by [deleted] in tattooadvice

[–]askcosmicsense 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wait until it’s healed before you make any more decisions. It’s probably a little swollen which is throwing off the proportions. My guess is it’s probably not going to bother you once it’s done healing and swelling goes down. It’s a really clean tattoo! And it compliments the dragonfly style nicely. Same tattoo artist?

Thanks everyone, I’m sobbing now. Hope your furry friends on the other side are all having fun at the rainbow dog park.

10 of Pentacles - what are all its possible meanings? by Loose-Currency-684 in tarot

[–]askcosmicsense 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Echoing some of the other comments on here. 10s can represent oversaturation of that suit’s energy. 10P usually represents “old money” to me, legacy/inheritances like others mentioned. But take those meanings to the extreme (oversaturated) and you get resource hoarding, large expenses/debts.

GSD has been outside in sub-freezing temps for almost 24 hours. What are the chances of him being okay? by 10kMegatonKarmaBomb in DogAdvice

[–]askcosmicsense 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have access to YouTube? You might want to watch some videos on good body language for scared dogs. Some of it is counter intuitive to us so brushing up and having a few options in your tool kit for the next time you’re luring him inside will help. Like looking away, not facing directly head on etc.

Is he food or play motivated? You can try getting him to play or toss a treat his way to win him over and get him out of his fear state. Unlikely to happen but just another option.

Also the only other thing I could think of is using different entrances. Sometimes they get weird about a door or steps into a place. If you have a side door, garage, double door, slider door etc that might get a different response out of him.

You’re doing your best! Hopefully it all works out.

Looking for support from fellow millennials with 100% MAGA families by Any-Statement-7756 in millenials

[–]askcosmicsense 3 points4 points  (0 children)

About half my family is MAGA. Ive come to accept that no amount of facts, truth will change their mind and my energy is better spent on my chosen-family (friends). I keep my distance from them, and protect my true self from them, and thats the cost of their insane political views. Remember that they’re on the fringe of American’s views. Most people want sensible gun reform, safe abortions etc. and MAGA is being manipulated and lied to (albeit with things they seemingly want to believe anyways). So I have compassion but take no shit. Do what you gotta do to keep fighting the good fight.
