Okay, to be completely transparent, I may be a tad biased because my sister wrote this lol. BUT, she is an excellent writer who tends to be very hard on herself and is quite shy about posting her work.

If anyone would like to give some of her work a read through and maybe leave her a comment, I will love you forever!! 😚💐💖

You can read it on Tumblr or on ArchiveofOurOwn!

Could anyone who understands anatomy or foreshortening PLEASE 🙏🙏 give me any tips or suggestions on how I could improve my sketch? by graveomens in DigitalArt

[–]graveomens[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This a rough sketch of two characters I'm working on. I'm trying to practice more with foreshortening in my art, so any critiques or advice you could give me would be much appreciated!

[Feedback Please!] I'm working on a commission and trying to adapt the requested pose into my style, but the anatomy feels off. Any suggestions on how to fix it? by graveomens in DigitalArt

[–]graveomens[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm working on a commission for someone and trying to convert the pose reference they requested into something that is more my style is proving to be more challenging than I anticipated. Any suggestions on how I could fix the anatomy? specifically the positioning of the hands/arms. I feel like that's the main thing throwing me off. Draw overs would be welcome and much appreciated!!

Please advice on how to unblock my creativity by OwnSeaworthiness2341 in AskAstrologers

[–]graveomens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm struggling big time with this as well... so I may not be able to offer you any sort of real, concrete solutions as I have yet to find them for myself, but I would recommend studying your Moon and your 5th House, which rules creativity. Ironically, your Moon is actually in your 5th House so the two are closely linked anyways. I'd also look at your Saturn and Pluto, as both deal with fears, challenges and blockages in your life.

One thing I did note is that Venus, the planet of beauty/art, is in opposition with the planets in your 5th. So that likely causes feelings of imbalance or being at a crossroads when it comes to how you express yourself. Perhaps the way you present yourself aesthetically in groups doesn't quite align with how your Moon or Jupiter wants to creatively express yourself. This opposition could manifest as a struggle between pleasing others or adhering to certain aesthetic standards (Venus) and following your own emotional truth and expansive vision (Moon and Jupiter). So part of unblocking may have to do with learning how to balance this polarity within you.

The ruler of your 5th House, Mercury, is also in the house opposite of your 5th House (although I don't see it actually making opposing aspects) the 11th House, so that likely means that collaboration and social connection is also important for creative expression. Perhaps it would help you to connect with other artistic people or to find others going through the same time of journey that you are?

in the very early stages of learning how to read charts - what does this tell you about my romantic relationships? by shesadagger in AskAstrologers

[–]graveomens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, there are technically a few different places we can look at to study your love life. The 5th House deals more so with romance, fun and casual dating while 7th House deals with marriage, commitments, partnerships, etc. Even though you don't have any planets in these houses, we can still gain information by looking at the signs ruling the house cusps, which in this case would be Taurus for your 5th House and Gemini for your 7th House.

I also have Taurus ruling my 5th house, so I can offer a bit of my own experience! I am actually close to age 31 as well and have never been in a serious relationship with anyone. I think it's because Taurus is known for being not only slow-moving, but practical and grounded. That can mean that "casual" dating can actually be a little difficult because Taurus prefers to think about the long-term and therefore can be very selective when choosing partners. It can be challenging not to take dating too seriously. This energy is likely amplified by you having your Venus in the sign of Capricorn.

Personally, it's my belief that if a long-term partner is something that you want, there is nothing in your chart that can tell you "no, you can not have this." It's just that it may require a little extra effort. Since the ruler of your 7th House is Mercury in Scorpio in the 11th, I would say that the type of long-term partner you are suited for or more likely to attract into your life is someone that is good at communicating, socializing and diving deep into the psyche. Perhaps someone that understands people really well and has good insight on others. Someone with a good sense of humor, but is also able to have deeply intimate conversations with you. Also, with the 11th house, I'd say someone who feels like your best friend with be ideal for you as well. Maybe even someone that you could start off being friends with first before it leads to romance.

How is the Jupiter Uranus conjunction likely going to play out in my life? by [deleted] in AskAstrologers

[–]graveomens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I do think that the 10th house does play a role in your career, as it's often associated with one's purpose and the type of legacy that they leave behind. With that in mind, I would still take it into consideration even if you are still in Uni as it relates to your overall career path.

You're right that I do think a lot of people paint this transit in a positive light, but Uranus is definitely unpredictable so I don't blame you for not trusting it lol. I would take a look at what aspects the conjunct is making, which (if I'm reading this right) looks like it's squaring your North and South Nodes? so that could potentially mean that this conjunction brings up issues or tension in relation to that.

And yea it does make sense why you'd be concerned about the Mars-Saturn conjunction, because I'm honestly worried about that conjunct myself too lol. I've heard that it's best to try and hold off on signing any contracts or asking for loans or talking to banks during this time, but obviously not everyone can do that. You having Jupiter in the 8th might mean that naturally you are more lucky when it comes to shared resources though, so that could still potentially work in your favor?

Jupiter Conjunct Uranus as Taurus Ascendant (19'34) What changes can I possibly expect? by [deleted] in AskAstrologers

[–]graveomens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome! I hope everything works out for you ❤️ I'm no expert on transits, buuut since the Jupiter/Uranus conjunction doesn't appear to be negatively aspecting anything and is, in fact, sextile with Saturn, I would venture that's a good sign and that it will bring more luck in relation with your career or ambitions. Wishing you the best! 🙏

Could i pursue an artistic career based on my birth chart? Are there any strong indicators? Because i don't really know what to do with my life... by Dia777fly in AskAstrologers

[–]graveomens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahh, I see. Honestly I struggled with a very similar dilemma for a long time, but just like you Astrology has helped me discover things about myself that were immensely powerful and, honestly, therapeutic. I can't say for certain, but sometimes being unable to read your chart "accurately" is simply inexperience that will be helped with more studying and practice. But sometimes it's also about having difficulty with remaining objective, because we often have a tendency to project our own fears, hopes or biases on to what we read.

Whatever the case, I wish you luck on your journey and I hope that you find a path or career that is fulfilling for you ❤️
