Astrology Observations

Astrology Takes Number 1

People with Moon or Cancer in the 11th house kinda always make nostalgic friends/freindships

South Node in the 12th house....what kind of torture did you had to go through in your past life?...we'll never know

South Node in the 9th house...having a hard time caring for themselves...feeling like they live for someone else's life instead of their own life

Saturn aspecting the Ascendant natives can find even the smallest details to hate on, about their appearance or others appearances

Aries or Mars in the 5th or 7th house can bring so much intensity in someones relationship

Sagittarius Moons and Pisces Moons can definitely feel lucky and blessed in life when it comes to luck thanks to Jupiter

Leo/Sagittarius/Pisces/Aries/Capricorn Venus have big dreams about their relationships and partners

Virgo in the 5th or 7th house usually brings a very hardworking and loyal spouse. More into business than family though

Moon in the 9th house natives were definitely reincarnated more than once. They feel so connected with different cultures and countries

Venus in the 10th house can definitely be known because of their partners. The marriage or relationship can bring lots of status in their lives

When Jupiter has good aspects with Pluto, it allows the natives to go through certain transformations but way more positive

North Node aspecting Venus in both good or bad aspects indicates the native is involved in love lessons

If your 4th house ruler has any connection with Pluto or Saturn, your family can feel very restricted

Pluto x Venus aspects bring so much magnetism in their love life and their relationships. It's a situation where you can't really leave

Libra in the 5th or 7th house brings a diplomatic and often very inteligent partner. It's like you always have something to learn from them

Saturn makes your life so hard when you have Capricorn + Aquarius Placements in your chart. I personally hate it so muc. Fuck off with this bish

Lilith aspecting your Moon makes it hard to be open with others emotionally. You can't share much or you'll be judged

Lilith in the 10th house can have people so competitive with them when it comes to their reputation

Lilith in the 6th house has it hard when it comes to their work ethic. People would find a way or water to try to bring your moral down

Lilith in the 4th house has that type of ancestral abuse, lying, and manipulation in their families. Break the bond

Lilith in Cardinal signs aka Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn are known to be generational breakers and to end something within their family trees

While Lilith in Mutable signs aka Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces are meant to bring a shift of change in their families. Every member brings something different

Aries Saturn or Saturn in the 1st house teaches you how to be independent from a young age or even hyper independence

Scorpio & Aquarius Moons can have a hard time trusting others. Just because with these moon signs betrayal is very common

People with Jupiter and sometimes Saturn in the 8th house can have generational wealth.

The most aspected planet in your chart is just as important as your chart ruler. Tells so much about yourself

Capricorn is the water sign of the earth signs. Besides the symbolic fish-part of this sign, they value feelings as much as the water signs. They don't like wet things though

Being born with pluto, neptune or saturn retrograde is not for the weak. SO I'M GONNA STAND UP TAKE MY PEOPLE WITH ME ✋🏽

I hate when someone with Venus x Asc aspects don't appreciate their beauty. They're blessed with beauty..and you don't like it??

Cancer and Libra placements are getting depresses with the weather. They see cloudy, they're moody, they see sunny they're horny and so on ....

Mars conjuct/square/opposition Sun even though these aspects tend to be challenging, they create ambitious people (sometimes too stubborn aswell)

Leo Placements are very clingy, but they tend to be clingy when nobody is there. Like they want to be clingy only with their person, and that's it. Not showing it to others. I find their private - clingy thing cute

If you have siblings and you also have Leo or Libra over the 3rd house, this can indicate your siblings overshadowing you. Them gaining more attention/care

Capricorn Chiron and taking care of their bones/body. Vitamins gurllll....take these vitamins asap.

I observed that people with their Moon in the 6th house like to have different diets and basically eat a mix of everything. They try their best to stay healthy

Saturn can also give you anxiety based on the house so those with Saturn in the 6th, 10th house have a high chance to get social anxiety

Pluto or Lilith in the 11th house is a strong placement if you want to know if you have true friends or fake friends

I observed that Libra is in big 3 sun/moon/rising can make the native low-key depressed if is single

Venus in the 8th house can sometimes be prone to cheating due to their high lust and sexual obsession

I observed that people with Cancer, Leo or Virgo Saturn are born in families with narcissistic or damaged people

National Eat Outside Day

Picnics, Cookouts, Grill Parties and Beer Gardens. Take a little time to enjoy a meal out in the open air in honor of National Eat Outside Day!

History of National Eat Outside Day

Humans have probably been eating outside ever since time and history began. But even after people started having homes indoors, the idea of dining outside had its place. During Medieval Times, for practical reasons people would pack foods and take them along with them on hunting parties.

During the 17th century, beer gardens were created in Bavaria, which is now Germany. It is likely that picnics later became popular in the United States some time in the 18th century when settlers would host parties in their private “pleasure gardens”. The idea would eventually grow into something that average people would enjoy in a local park, forest or green space.

Some researchers believe that one version of outdoor dining in the United States may have started in Coney Island, New York. The park’s first roller coaster was introduced in 1884 and people loved spending time outside, so restaurateur Charles Feltman wedged a sausage between bread for people to eat on the go. Thus, one of the easiest and most popular foods to eat outside, the hot dog, was born.

And National Eat Outside Day is here to celebrate all of the fun!

How to Celebrate National Eat Outside Day

Eating outdoors can be accomplished in a variety of ways in celebration of National Eat Outside Day. Try out some of these ideas to get started:

Go on a Picnic

One delightful way to enjoy National Eat Outside Day is to invite some friends and family members, pack up a picnic and head out to a park, beach or other enjoyable space. Fill a basket full of all kinds of delicious outdoor-friendly foods, such as fried chicken, deli sandwiches, cut fruit like watermelon or apples, potato salad, sliced vegetables with hummus dip, and some homemade cookies or pie for dessert. And don’t forget the picnic blanket to sit on!

Eat on a Restaurant Patio

Since National Eat Outside Day takes place in summertime, it’s a great time to eat outside at a favorite restaurant. Many restaurants, whether they serve barbecue sandwiches or Italian meals, offer an outdoor area where they seat patrons during the warmer months. Call ahead to make a reservation, just in case others also have the same idea in honor of the day!

Host a Grill Party

One of the most popular ways that people love to celebrate National Eat Outside Day is to invite a few friends or neighbors over to have a barbecue. Fire up that barbecue grill and layer it with all sorts of outdoorsy foods, like hamburgers, hot dogs, bratwurst, sausages, chicken breasts, shrimp and more. Other foods that can be cooked on the grill include corn on the cob, shish kebabs, vegetables like zucchini or squash, and even cheese that can be warmed on the grill.

Mary Ann “Polly” Nichols: 26th August 1845 - 31st August 1888

Mary Ann “Polly” Nichols was born Mary Ann Walker in Soho on the 26th of August 1845. She was the second of three children born to Edward Walker and his wife Caroline. Few details remain of her childhood years but what is known is that by 1851, she had been christened.

At the age of 18, Mary married William Nichols, a machinist, on the 16th of January 1864 at Saint Bride's Parish Church. After their marriage the couple resided at 30-31 Bouverie Street before moving to live with Mary's father at 131 Trafalgar Street. The couple went on to have five children together: Edward John, born 1866, Percy George, born 1868, Alice Esther, born 1870, Eliza Sarah, born 1877, and Henry Alfred, born 1879.

On the 6th of September 1880, the family moved into their own home, 6 D-Block, Peabody Buildings, paying a rent of 5s. 9d. They lived there for only a short time before they separated under disputed circumstances. Nichol's father claimed that that William had left his daughter after having an affair with the nurse who helped in the delivery of their final child. William maintained that no such affair occurred, and the split was due to troubles caused by Mary's drinking. He and four of the children moved into an address near Old Kent Road. He sent her an allowance of five shillings a week until 1882 when he was informed that she was working as a prostitute. When authorities attempted to collect the money on her behalf, William informed them that she was earning her own money through prostitution, that she had deserted him and her children, and that she was living with another man. Law stated that if a woman was making money from 'illicit means,' Mary no longer received maintenance from her estranged husband.

Many of Mary's movements during the intervening years are unknown. We know she resided at Lambeth Workhouse in 1881 and left on 31st May that same year, and that she returned on 24th April 1882. It is also known that she lived for some months with her father until an argument caused her to leave in 1883. After this point she was in and out of workhouses, attempting to earn a living on the streets, and frequently spent this money on alcohol. In 1887 she had begun a relationship with Thomas Dew, but this had fallen apart by October. In December 1887, she was homeless and began sleeping on the streets near Trafalgar Square though through a clearance of this area, she found herself back at Lambeth Workhouse where she stayed for only two weeks.

Her movements in 1888 are more documented. The matron of Lambeth Workhouse found employment for Mary as a domestic servant in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Cowdry in Wandsworth.

Nichols wrote a letter to her father shortly after taking this position in which she wrote the following:

"I just write to say you will be glad to know that I am settled in my new place and going on all right up to now. My people went out yesterday, and have not returned, so I am in charge. It's a grand place inside, with trees and gardens back and front. All has been newly done up. They are teetotalers, and religious, so I ought to get on. They are very nice people, and I have not too much to do. I hope you are all right and the boy has work. So goodbye for the present. From yours truly, Polly."

When Edward attempted to respond to this communique, he received word that Mary had absconded from the premises, taking with her clothing that amounted to £3 10s. By that summer, she was staying at a common lodging house at 18 Thrawl Street before relocating to 56 Flower and Dean Street on 24th August.

We come, then, to the 30th of August and the last instances Mary was seen alive. She was seen at 11pm walking along Whitechapel Road before visiting the Frying Pan public house, complete with a new black velvet bonnet that she was rather proud of. She stayed there until just after midnight and after leaving, had returned to her lodging house at Flower and Dean Street by 1:20am, August 31st. She was informed by the deputy housekeeper that she needed the 4d for her bed and upon response that she didn't have the money, she was ordered from the house, with an unconcerned Nichols responding quite proudly that "I'll soon get my doss money. See what a jolly bonnet I've got now." She left to work the streets, confident that her bonnet would attract clients with ease.

Emily Holland saw Nichols at 2:30am and saw that the woman was noticeably drunk and slumped against a nearby wall. Holland, concerned for the woman, attempted to convince her to return to the lodging house but Nichols refused. It seems her hopes that the bonnet would attract clients were met as she responded that she'd "had my lodging money three times today, and I have spent it." The two women parted ways, with Nichols heading off towards Whitechapel Road with the intention of securing her lodging house money. She would be found dead an hour later, the first victim of Jack the Ripper.
