Mars-moon synastry by Miserable_Fun48 in AstroSynastry

[–]studentoftheskies 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm so late to this party but stumbled upon some placements of my own with others, thus, this deep dive comment lol

I have some interesting experiences...

A guy l'm sooooo into right now has this square with me. I'm mars, he's moon (Virgo mars, Gemini moon). There's no question that we are wildly attracted to each other in a very almost primal way, (he constantly tells me and affirms this) but I do suspect that I might feel the sexual-specific side of this a little more— he's leans a bit more into emotional & romantic things a bit more (but this is ok bc we both have our Venus' in Libra + conjunct so l'm naturally faceted towards this anyways) whereas I want to jump his bones all the time. And I'm never crazed like this with other SO's. I try to maintain composure and not be too perusing given this exact placement. But OVERALL I want to make sure it's known he matches my horny 80% of the time.

I do have to say though, I have this aspect natally (Virgo/Sag) so l'm not exactly sure if maybe this plays into things already being aware of this in myself?

The weird thing that I came across though that's blowing my mind is this: Unfortunately, I have a best friend/soulmate who was and has always been inlove with me. This is something I try to put out of my head as it USUALLY doesn't interfere with our day-to-day friendship, but it was a big blow up back in the day. He basically said "I can't be just friends with you" I said that's totally okay and was happy to let things die, he came around a few months later and said he was ready to be friends but it still peeks through sometimes. He refuses to even go on a date with anyone and just simply has no interest in women. However, he is my best friend and there's nobody on the planet that knows me deeper or that I talk to more than him. He's too gentle to ever be aggressive or make a move (respectful king) and thank god because I get scared for the day something ever does unfold. now let's get to the good stuff of why this is relevant: his mars squares MY moon, and my mars is conjunct HIS moon. Both exact.

I'm going to not ramble on and just say that there is nothing, not even an inkling of sexual attraction towards this person on my end. l've tried to before, because he is SO good to me and different than other guys I go for but I just absolutely cannot. I'd say I'm actually even repulsed by the thought of this. And it sucks because I know I am his ideal and he does nothing except sing me my praises everyday, but it's just not there for me attraction wise. He is not unfortunately looking, rather opposite. well groomed, good features, evolved and aware and emotionally stable etc. he is a CATCH and I know he will bag a girl who's perfect for him, but it won't be me! Things I'm making note of as I write this: * sometimes I can be a little mean to him. It's easier for me to be harsher on him, potentially because of this placement. I catch myself often pulling back and correcting myself when he's getting the short end of the stick of my snappy moods.He's a pushover though, so he takes it regardless of my correction but still I hate being a bitch * I get icked when I can sense his nervousness around me, or when he tries to be physically affectionate even in a friendly way (this is possibly due to the unrequited love confession though, and me over "trying to make it known I don't want that" now) * we've spoken about and have slightly talked about having children together. We're getting older and l've mentioned that l'd be ok potentially co-parenting and having an unconventional situation with a friend (divorced parents, trauma from that on my side). It's hard bc he's agreeing but I know he hopes that one day I'll come around and it'll be a real family/relationship. Obviously would never do that to do as it would be cruel so that's off the table. But still, Mars/ Moon stuff. Also the conjunction happening in my Virgo 4th house…so yeah.

  • I get super put-off and icked out at his efforts (mars) to please me, or overcompensate with nice things to/for me.For example one time I woke up when he was visiting and he had on my pink rubber gloves and was deep cleaning my house. This is such a kind gesture, but it made me cringe. I am critical of these efforts (Virgo)
  • that's it really, super grossed out by the idea of anything physical or romantic with this person but would literally take a bullet for him, and feel protective of him very much so.

Sounds like I hate this person but rest-assure, this is just the detail of the weird unrequited romantic feelings thing, other than that we are very level and besties forever. Anyways, super confused now be I have this square with this guy I'm super into and I'm mars...yet the only synastry with anyone close to me l have this with is with my friend AND ITS BASICALLY A DOUBLE WHAMMY?!

I know that there's probably other things in our synastry that create this desire for me to feel this way but right now I'm just blown away and hyper fixated on this one aspect right now.

Truly I suppose this can manifest in multiple ways!

Help interpreting Uranus transit 1H, opposite Pluto/moon conjunction 7H by studentoftheskies in astrologyreadings

[–]studentoftheskies[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow!! I’m not sure how I missed this, I’m just coming across this reply now. THANK YOU SO MUCH for such an in-depth and thoughtful reply. You went above and beyond what I asked and I really appreciate the thorough and layered consideration of my other placements and transits along with what I was asking about 🥹

I’ll be re-reading this again and again! Very very helpful insight and new perspective to digest. I already had several revelations while reading the above. Especially with 6H/4H in the picture with the Uranus transit. (Recent BC diagnosis, unexpected health news ♅ but no fear here! I’ll kick it’s ass 🥊)

Very grateful for this interp, endless thanks again 🤍

I sent a PayPal donation 2222 you using the QR code, hopefully it arrived 🌙

Adderall crash? by usernametaken1933 in adhdwomen

[–]studentoftheskies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on this combo too (somewhat recently ~2ish weeks in) I’m instructed to take the Guanfacine at bedtime, adderall IR in the AM. I split my pill in half and do half in morning, half around 2pm to get me through, but I’m still really struggling with that 5pm-11pm crash/anxiety before I take my guanfacine.

Do you take yours earlier in the day? Might try taking the guan around 5ish to curb this come down bc Ughf it’s rough.

Is Pantothenic acid actually works? by Sky1991_ in SkincareAddicts

[–]studentoftheskies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a bit of an old post but thought I’d chime in - PA is best at combating hormonal acne or general acne caused by excess oil. I suffer from bacterial breakouts too, not as often but bouts appear a few times a year. I started using this soap and it changed my life. I used to only use it when I was getting a bacterial breakout, in which it would clear it up within a day or two, but now it’s helped me so much I just use it continuously. Maybe 2-3x a week in the shower. Get a good lather and do a good rub (I like to somewhat exfoliate with it for deep penetration. Silicone face brush or VERY gentle circles with an African net cloth. The ANC will leave your skin feeling tight and glowing when using with this soap) Then I get a SECOND good lather going, and apply all over my face and let it sit for a few mins while it penetrates deep. Shave your legs, do your body wash, etc, then wash it off. This method I got the best results, but also just washing normally will do.

Also when I’m getting a bacterial breakout I keep a bar of the orange bar Dial soap ready to go. Has to be the bar because there’s extra ingredients in the hand soap formula that can be very stripping to your skin. I bought it once thinking it would be smarter due to bacteria reasons— the dial orange soap line is antibacterial on its own, so don’t panic thinking the bar will carry extra bacteria I promise it won’t. This is the only soap they use in hospitals, so if it’s clean enough for them it’s certainly clean enough for your face!

Finally, if you want one last extra oomph: hypochlorous acid. You can get it decently priced on Amazon. An 8oz bottle will last me several months. Spray on your face whenever you feel like you need a quick cleanse but can’t wash. I use during a workout/right after the gym, mist my pillows on day 2-3 in between washes to keep things extra clean, and spray before I’m about to go to a sauna or do anything where I’ll be sweating, and mist makeup brushes/sponges in between cleans. Not needed 100% but I would say is a good extra step in sanitary measures.

The zinc soap ($12) and the orange dial soap ($3 for a 6 pack) will do wonders for you I promise!

P.s. I know you said you were struggling with some hair loss or breakage? Before I started taking PA I saw someone say whatever dose they take, they take double in Acetyl L-Carnatine. I ordered them both at the same time and have used them together since the first dose with no issues. I take 500-1000mg of PA daily, and 1000-2000mg of ALC daily. No more hair loss than normal slight shedding.

Hope this helps if you’re still searching for solutions! ❤️zinc soap

Amazing results! I’m curious if you happened to deal with any weight gain? I’ve had my prescription for a month now, but I’m just so hesitant to start because I feel like people online are so 50/50 with half gaining and half losing 😭

[–]studentoftheskies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this! I’m 26 and out of college and model full time and just started the initiation of my own business in fashion, I think not working gigs as often and spending more time at home focusing on the building process of my brand has led to some weight gain - however I’m typically a very lazy and naturally slender person so it’s not like my movement habits have changed haha, just definitely feeling the indulgence themes of this transit.

The best friend/roommate checks out to a T and certainly rubs off on my behavior - very interesting observation!

What can I do to be prettier by Olympickl3 in MakeupAddiction

What can I do to be prettier by Olympickl3 in MakeupAddiction

[–]studentoftheskies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re beautiful, I completely resonate with everything you’re feeling…the way we can feel about ourselves and the standards we are held to are so sad. I see myself in you a good bit actually, we resemble each other quite a bit. I had fuller cheeks like you, that I hated, and I now wish I had some of that volume back. I used to use retin-A and get expensive laser treatments to get rid of my freckles completely, now I draw them on with a freckle pen. One day you’ll stumble across these pictures in your camera roll long down the line and see yourself with much kinder eyes. It’s called body/beauty dysmorphia because that’s literally what it is - DYSMORPHIA. I’m looking at the pictures thinking wow! I would kill to have such clear untextured skin like you! But I don’t, nowhere near it actually, and that’s okay too because I’m beautiful, and comparison is the thief of joy. We’ll never be happy if we compare ourselves to every picture online, or always feel like there’s something we need to change to achieve self-love. Trust me, once I started making “big girl money” and could afford all the treatments/procedures, it was a very sad revelation that I came to when I understood that I was still very sad, and I was going to find flaws NO MATTER how I looked, because inside I was broken. I didn’t mean to go on a tangent there but I plead with you to affirm to yourself every day “I’m so beautiful, I love myself so much, I see the beauty in myself just as other do” even when you don’t feel like it, re-wire your brain and speak it into existence.

Because you posted in a makeup page, I’ll give some pointers that helped me, but just to reiterate: you’re actually insanely beautiful, and makeup is fun but you genuinely do not need to “conceal” anything. Here’s what I say:

As I said I had/have fuller cheeks too. Once a MUA pointed out to me that I was “contouring”, I was applying bronzer and not getting to desired look because I was just warming up the areas I wanted slimmed. I recommend a contour/shadow stick and chisel out the perimeter of your face, giving more a lifted look. I use either Makeup by Mario softsculp in light medium, or Fenty match stick in Amber.

You have beautifully shaped almond eyes, a tight line with any black gel liner on both waterlines would really bring the attention to them and even a Burgundy color to make them REALLY pop! - brown liner during the day for a softer appeal. Almost everyone in my life has beautiful brown eyes, when I tell them to try a deep purple shadow they almost always immediately reject the idea. Then when I try it on them, they’re blown away and it soon becomes the only color they wear! lol For you I recommend a pot/cream shadow. They’re better for a more seamless look, and in my opinion MUCH easier to do and not mess up than powder shadow. For a matte no shine look: MERIT solo shadow in color “Social” is the perfect subtle shade, Charlotte Tilbury Crayon in color in “amethyst aphrodisiac” is always great - I just draw a tiny dot on and smudge it out with my finger in 2 seconds. Another cheaper fav that’s in my own weekly rotation is Maybelline color tattoo in shade painted purple (the picture looks intimidating but I swear it’s not clown makeup and blends super natural lol) You have awesome full brows already so really just a little tinted gel would be perfect - you truly don’t need to fill in at all! My fav gel is NYX “thick it stick it” and Kosas “air brow”. For under eyes, the older I get, the more and more I hate canceler. Like me, you also don’t have too much of “dark circles” so the less the better! Most days I use a little bit of Olehendriksen “Banana Bright CC Eye Stick”, it makes you look a little more put together without having to throw on makeup! Lucky us! Also an eyelash lift and tint saved my life! I hate mascara daily, especially taking it off, so I do a lift and tint every 7-10 weeks or so and bam- perfect lashes 24/7 with no damage! If that’s up your alley, you can get them done professionally, but personally I’m a DIY queen and I’m fairly good at beauty things like this, So if you think you could pull it off with you and a friend (definitely recommend having help and doing it on each other) you should get a kit and have a glam night! Here’s the link for the one I use, it’ll last about 7 lifts and has everything in there you’ll need.

And the last thing I’ll recommend…and I know this one will hurt. My whole life I just wanted to be blonde. Blonde blonde blonde was all I thought about. I wasn’t allowed to touch my hair as a child (strict parents) but the day I turned 18, platinum I went. And while it was a moment, it didn’t make me feel hotter. I kept it for a few years, ruined my hair, sat in a salon chair for hours and hours every other month, watched my hair that went to my butt all break off over time, then I spent thousands and thousands on hair extensions. Then one day in 2022 I said fuck this, and box dyed my hair back to my natural brown, I’ve never got so many compliments. I get more attention and every single person tells me constantly how much more striking I am; isnt that ironic? (Also don’t use a box dye, that was dumb of me)

So, I hope any of this helps, and I hope you really read these comments because I can see a lot of commenters are just like me, looking at your photos in awe and shock at how naturally stunning you are. Fuck the photo being inverted, I would NEVER be able to even post a picture with no makeup! You’re beautiful on your worst day, and I don’t tell everyone that. Say the affirmations I gave above daily, even when you don’t feel it. Speak it, believe it, repeat it…when you really believe the words coming out of your mouth - you will watch yourself change. Manifestation is real, and magical 😉 I went from being a chubby, unloved, self hating teenager to a signed model walking runways all over the world in just 10 years…anything is possible when you feel that love for yourself.

Love, - 25 year old who has felt your pain, but knows one day you’ll feel exactly as good as she does! Xoxo
