The Zodiac’s Deepest, Darkest Confessions.
-Aries: some Aries natives tend to hide under an extroverted and greater-than-life personality a huge need for competition and prevailing onto others, meaning they are really good at wearing masks and playing nicey-nicey, especially when it comes to climbing up social circles. However, when it doesn’t work like they want to they become delusional, repressed and usually really menacing towards anyone who is gentle to them, especially if any of the benefits above aren’t required.
-Taurus: Damn if they are some blunt bitches. Tauruses really like making harsh comments on people in front of them and not giving a fuck, usually because it makes them feel reassured and superior. In reality, they are really fragile and in constant need of support by a group of people. In fact, the most obnoxious Tauruses have the bad habit of being part of really bad social circles.
- Gemini: Gemini’s are really caring people at the core but they really struggle with their emotions, because they want to look controlled and calm all the time and frequent lots of different environments; they aren’t fake but curious, and that’s great, but this lack of solid bases which they can count on is a problem indeed.
-Cancer: Cancers are probably the most complicated, emotional and unstable signs of all the zodiac: their friends many times ask themselves if it’s friendship or a constant fight (it’s actually hard sometimes to decide which one is more correct) and this is because right now they’re all giggles and smiles and five minutes later they will shout at you or push you away giving you a mean stare. Also they sometimes project their feelings g onto others, even to manipulate.
-Leo: Leos can be good and caring friends, but the bad ones (which, news flash, are way more common) are tremendously arrogant, defensive and always trying to act snobbish and cold with people they don’t like. They stick onto things they hate and are ready to stand for their friends really fiercely even when they’ve committed something really wrong and unexcusable. Will also try to point out your flaws just like Taurus to feel powerful and stronger.
-Virgo: Developed Virgos are people deserving of love, respect and true admiration, except for they’re rare: most of them (especially girls because women with Earth Signs are the meanest, deal with it) will be judgemental, critical of others and a clean freak, but most of all they will try to analyze people as if all the intel they collected could be used against those same people.
- Libra: Ahh, Libra, actually there are quite few bad Libras out there. But they are pretty annoying. First of all, it may seem granted but I kid you not it’s superficiality;
nobody likes that, and most of all their childish approach to some things.
-Scorpio: That’s a tough one, because even Developed Scorpios albeit wise are still pretty hard, but mostly the problem is their serious anger problems which makes them throw temper tantrums for the lightest things, and also they are really good at ruining relationship (especially romantic ones) with others because of their tormented feelings. Also they seem to hold grudges for a lifetime and can be pretty insensible when they want to.
-Sagittarius: Sagittarians are actually really good at dealing with their flaws, just like Libra and Cancer, but they usually forget that dealing with emotions and empathising isn’t a cakewalk for them. Also, their jokes and constant humor (this also happen with some Capricorns) make some of their important discussions pretty difficult to take seriously.
-Capricorn: Capricorns can be officially the meanest sign, and that’s because they can be pretty bossy, authoritarian and especially they will easily bully and humiliate other people for fun and see it as a game. Bad Capricorns love to brag about the evil things they did, and in fact they are capable of doing and saying lots and lots of very, very shameful stuff. They can be sly, selfish and really untrustworthy.
-Aquarius: Aquarians are weirdos for sure, like what is wrong with those dumbos?
Initially it looks like their only flaw is that they get obsessed with an argument even if they’re proved wrong for no reason whatsoever, and secondly they isolate themselves many times, often for the desire to be unique. In the end, they just look like the rich-but-fake-poor hippie who makes random videos about stuff and writes nonsense. And well, confident Aquarians act really, really superior to others and not in a nice way.
- Pisces: So I might seem biased on this one (and it’s because I am a Virgo) but believe me truly when I say that they are really messed up, toxic, lying and emotionally disturbed people. People often say that they have a strong sense of sacrifice: that’s bullshit, honey, it’s a Virgo thing. Pisceans help people only when it inspires them to do something better, like in social events etc. but in reality they have no problems in revealing all your deepest secrets to everyone, just to start a conversation. Anyways they will make it up and act like the loving helper who is always there, but they aren’t. Also tends to end up with bad people and likely uses substances+ gets easily irritated, nervous and sad for a whole week for one thing.
ok we're settling this discourse right now
put ur zodiac sign in the tags & if you like or dislike:
- pineapple on pizza - mint ice cream / mint chocolate - ketchup in mac n’ cheese - fries dipped in ice cream
I wanna do one of those “if you’re lgbt put your orientation, sign and favorite tool in the tags” but I know most of The Gays have never touched a tool on their life. I’ll be left with 15 lesbians, one gay dude and a handful of bisexuals and they better all be tagging screwdrivers
Hi, I’m new to tumblr and digital art but i know this will be an enriching experience in any/every way possible despite these dark times. It will take me a while to adapt but i have every intention of making my art the real deal to contribute to the world and meet new people. :)
ominous advice for the signs
aries : do not forget to close the doors behind you. things you may not recognize will creep and follow.
taurus : look away from the trees sometimes. they don’t always want to be known.
gemini : a vague feeling of impending doom is normal, but if it’s still there when you turn on the light then hide and lie in wait.
cancer : try to capture the ghosts that float around you. with cameras or your hands or even mirrors if you’re lucky.
leo : rest easy, there will be no wars for you tonight. but watch the crows and listen to their call. yes, they will be talking to you.
virgo : if there’s someone else in your mind, let them talk sometimes. you don’t know yourself as well as you think you do.
libra : sometimes secrets are good things. a burning heart or a pile of bones are not good secrets.
scorpio : you’ll find lots of light switches. not all of them should be turned on.
sagittarius : wrap yourself up in blankets and give the ocean an inch. the caves you’re exploring will still be there when you’re done.
capricorn : do not ever cover your eyes. if you look away, the stars will know, and they will not be able to help you.
aquarius : fold your hands to the sun and listen. find the beautiful thing in closed curtains and sprinkled light shining from a place you cannot see.
pisces : a mirror is not a gateway, so stay awake: old gods are still gods even when they’re silent.
december messages for the signs🎄
use your sun, moon, & rising✨
🔔 aries – things may feel unstable in your life right now, so try to remember that you and the ones you love are safe. focus on reconnecting with people who you may have lost your connection with, and most importantly reconnect with yourself. finding stability within yourself will enable you to feel secure in your external life. december will be a positive time for you and your family.
🔔 taurus – allow yourself to fully believe in the dream you have right now. you are allowed to follow your dreams, it is our right as divine beings on this earth, so do not allow any negative thought patterns to keep you in a self-defeating mindset. whatever you are trying to create right now is slowly taking form even if you do not see it yet, so keep working hard towards your goals and you will achieve them!
🔔 gemini – this is a good time for you to let go of the things that have been making you feel so tense. make time every day to take a few deep breaths and ground yourself back in the moment. the things that were worrying you have come to pass, and there is now space to nurture and grow something new. regroup, make a plan with a clear mind, and follow through with it.
🔔 cancer – remember that nothing is ever permanent because everything is changing in every moment. if there is something in your situation that you do not like or that is not serving you anymore, let it go with love and light. you have the ability to shape everything around you into exactly what you want it to be, so figure out what you want, be adaptable, and start making the changes you want to see happen.
🔔 leo – this is a good time for you to do some inner healing that you may have been ignoring or putting off. it hurts a lot less to deal with the pain for a few moments and then never have to experience it again than it does to live half a life because you are not present in the moment. now is a time for self-care and to look at all those little cuts in your heart, where they came from, and heal them instead of trying to keep bandaging the wounds.
🔔 virgo – go through this month looking at both sides to everything. having a balanced mind will lead you to a win-win outcome in every situation you are in. look at what you need to let go in order to regain your inner balance of peace. schedule some time to meditate and really focus on the things in your life that feel imbalanced so that you are equipped to make those changes when the time comes. balance the time you give to others with the time you give to yourself.
🔔 libra – you might be feeling like your commitment to some situation is being tested right now. try not to take everything at face value, there is always more to a story than you are perceiving. look inside and question if you are truly committed to yourself. by committing to yourself you become completely confident in everything that you do because you have promised to yourself you will always do your best.
🔔 scorpio – you have been anticipating and ending for a while and it is finally coming. you are going to be feeling excited and energized when it happens because it is leading you onto a new a more thrilling path. do not let this energy cause you to make rash decisions, just know that this is happening around you and embrace it. live as your inner child for a bit, your life deserves to be fun and creative.
🔔 sagittarius – you have had some plan on your mind for a while now, but you have not taken that leap of faith towards the unknown of actually living out that plan. now is the time to make a move! you are a creator and everything in life is within your control, so take a chance and allow the universe to fill in the gaps. everything you need is coming to you, the universe is waiting to bless you with abundance, but you must be the one to make the first move.
🔔 capricorn – the connections you are making this month will be balanced, fair, and understanding. there will be a mutual respect and understanding between you and the people you are building connections with this month. let go of what is blocking your heart, not only to be able to freely flow with love, but to be able to focus more on trusting your feelings than relying on your mind.
🔔 aquarius – try to look at everything from a place of love this month. there may be chaos all around you, but when you look at it with love and curiosity it can change the entire energy of a situation. do not underestimate your power to bring love to a seemingly hopeless situation. there is no going back after you have done or said something, so if you are acting out of love, those situations will always have a positive energy in your mind and in the mind of others.
🔔 pisces – whatever it is that you have been focused on is gaining momentum, so do not give up! you are surrounded by positivity and you are heading in the right direction. you are full off potential and energy, so this is a very empowering time for you to chase your dreams. keep moving forward and you will see success in everything you want to achieve.

if this reading resonated with you, comment your big 3! i love seeing how the energies are playing out in peoples lives! 😇
A lady in the sky, she follows
dawn’s peaceful light
in wait of tomorrow's guilt,
burning beneath a mountain of clouds
each one darker than the last,
and yet she shines
brighter than any sun in any sky,
she wanders near those setting scales
backed by lions in a crow like roar
waiting to feed the passing day
a lady in the sky, she waits
This is scary accurate. Any fellow Cancers out their?

September's been good to me 🤎☁️
If a Virgo was a drug they would be Adderall. It gives you a strong sense of concentration, and Virgos usually have a strong ability to focus all their energies into tasks. They may end up feeling agitated or anxious sometimes because their mind always seems to be on overdrive. They are fastidious with an excellent eye for detail, and they typically have a tolerance for tasks that requires repetition.
This is funny.
