absolutely hysterical over the idea that staunch atheist essek thelyss somehow did a full 360 logical wraparound into following the luxon's original intent

(original version under the cut)

Astrologers helped design the study

No one did better than random chance, even though they only included people in the study who are experienced with astrology and stated that they expect themselves to do better than random chance

They gave every astrologer a set of 50 things about a person and 5 birth charts to choose from. They weren’t even coming up with the chart themselves!

After taking the test, most thought they nailed it. Zero out of 152 did better than 5 out of 12. None nailed it

Astrologers who rated themselves highly experienced (“world class experts”) did the same or worse as those who said they have limited experience. Both performed the same as random chance

Blumendrei Regency AU for @celestialpinay! As a part of @cr-summer-wildflowers! Historical details under the cut because I had way too much fun researching & drawing this (but also if you're a historical clothing nerd and therefore definitely know more than me, please shout at me about what I got wrong):

protective → reacting with excessive violence to small provocations and retaliating disproportionately

curious → disregard for safety and boundaries

determined → dooming self and even others when refusing to let a lost cause be lost

vigilant → paranoid control and distrust

independent → isolated and unable to ask for or accept help

decisive → coldblooded, reckless, and taking extreme measures without considering less lethal methods

forgiving → inability to hold peoole accountable and never learning from past mistakes

easygoing → unserious and not taken seriously by others even when warranted

optimistic → denial of real danger and damage

disciplined → rigid expectations of perfectionism from self and others

heroic → meddles even when told not to and ignoring people’s autonomy

generous and helpful → inability to say ‘no’ and stretching self thin trying to help everyone

Directions from the doctor on a sickday: keep a trusted companion (including lots of cats) within arm's reach for frequent cuddles, conversations, and love; one warm hug every hour; snacks and tea are strongly recommended Side effects may include: difficulty wanting to leave the blankets
