▲ Zodiac Rant ▲

In celebration of the Astro community here and Tumblr (and because apparently some think I am a bitch). I have decided to create a community tag where we answer questions about us, our blogs, astrology and whatever we like and so everyone knows that we’re actually human beings that take time and effort to give you the best that we can.

We simply answer the questions and then pass the tag to “the most [adjective] [astroblog name]”

I will start:

🌞Sun Questions🌞

☀️What’s your name?

• Husain

☀️Where are you from?

• Bahrain

☀️How old are you?

• 22

☀️What’s your Sun sign?

• Taurus

☀️What’s something you love about your sign?

• That we’re fierce and strong willed, yet calm and soothing

☀️What makes you shine bright among others?

• I love to enjoy my life with what I have and with the people I love. It’s not the best but it’s all I have and I’ll make sure it’s the best one to live.

☀️Which post were you proud of the most?

• I made years ago a post called “Birth Chart as a Kingdom” or something along the lines. I was so proud because it was fully me and based on an idea I had for a story, and also I took a risk and people turned out to love. That’s when I learned that I should love what I write and not write what I think others would love.

🌑Moon Questions🌑

🌙What emotion motivates you?

• Anger and Happiness. I can’t decide on which.

🌙What emotions would you like your posts to evoke?

• Playfulness, Happiness, Inspiration, feeling Knowledgeable, and Curiosity

🌙What’s the best feeling you’ve experienced as an astro blogger?

• When someone is truly fascinated by what you write and enjoys reading your thoughts. Because to me, it’s me, but to them I am some high mighty being with valuable secretive knowledge. I just feel so humbled, motivated and appreciated.

🌙What were the lows of being an astro blogger?

• When you get that intuition block and when someone attacks you and even threatens your life over a post.

🌙What made you most emotional?

• When people reach out for and help and they basically beg you to help them out. Whether it’s love, friendship, marriage, having children, sick loved one, missing loved one, death.y heart really goes out to them, because I can feel and tell that they literally can’t do anything.

🌙Have you ever stressed over a post?

• Only when in draft. Sometimes you want to create something but you just can’t. I have so many posts that I just sit and look at and just blank. The concept and the idea is there but the content is missing something, lacking or incomplete. But once it’s out, it’s out.

🌙What inspires you about astrology?

• It is fascinating to me how it falls on the line between science and spirituality, and when writing you can use both at the same time. Which rarely happens naturally in most topics and subjects. It’s an outline or a map to who you’re and your life, not a definitive and set in stone plan of how your life will play it. It’s an insight to the future, an indicator of the present and an explanation of the past.

💫Rising Questions💫

⭐️What’s the meaning behind your handle?

• Zodiacrant is ranting about zodiac signs. It’s a safe space for people to express their opinions about their experiences and opinions about placements and people they know. I don’t know how I came up with it, it just came to me.

⭐️What’s the aesthetic/energy you’re going for?

• I do what I like and I do change up the theme and style of the page and posts from month to month. But generally I love extra in color but few in clutter. I want it to be selected extra stuff rather than pile of many small pretty things.

⭐️What’s the energy you like to give to your readers?

• Light heartedness, Uplifting, Authenticity, Realistic. I want them to feel included and part of the mess that is zodiacrant.

⭐️Which parts of you people can tell by your page?

• I love colors, I love to take my time, Clearly a Gemini Venus, I love to create surveys, reports and get out of the text book astrology.

⭐️Which parts of you are not coming through or you hold back on your page?

• Majority of my personal life, I am a bad online communicator so many people think I am not connecting with them but in reality I just don’t know how to interact online. To me it’s easier in real life. (Big thanks to Aries 3rd, Mars in 9th and Taurus in 11th)

⭐️If your page could be a person, how would it be?

• They will look like a cunt but are actually a caring cunt. Like if they’ll say something, they’ll say it to your face and they won’t entertain behind the back crap so even if they don’t like you, they respect you. And what you see, is what you’ll get.

⭐️What’s the style you love to wear?

• Simple look with a POPPING jacket or/ans top. Generally colorful, modern chic, eccentric formal, 1950’s meets 80’s but in the 21st century.

🧠Mercury Questions🧠

🗣Which type of posts do you like to do/write the most?

• Astro Notes, because they’re fun and easy. Posts about planets, because I love them and everything about them.

🗣Which type of posts do you hate or dread to do/wrote the most?

• Honestly, synastry, love and relationships. It’s just not in my nature to focus on them, so it’s difficult to fully tone into them.

🗣What makes you curious about astrology?

• Where does it come from and if it is real. Sometimes, I get those question marks in my head but then someone would interpret something that is impossible to pull out of thin air and I just go “That’s why I love it”. As unknown as it is, it does have structure and brings balance.

🗣An opinion no one asked for?

• I truly don’t know much about anything but tropical charts. It’s what I studied up on and it is what I use. To me astrology is a hobby, even though I am passionate about, I feel like the moment I stepped into Vedic, Persona, Synastry, Composite charts and seen all the astroids, I knew that I didn’t belong there.

🗣Give us a random fact about you?

• I was born May 4th, on 11:59 PM just seconds before it turned May 5th.

🗣A random astrology fact?

• Scorpio rules sex with others and Aries rules masturbation or sex with yourself.

🗣What’s the most shocking thing you learned as an Astroblogger?

• That people get more offended by being called “not funny” more than “less intelligent”.

I’ll leave the rest of the questions to be written by other bloggers so everyone gets the chance to write.

You don’t have to reblog, just answer the questions 💕.

I love yours

I got:

you are silver

#C0C0C0:

Your dominant hue is red… you are passionate, energetic, and unafraid of life’s changes. You’re all about getting out and trying something new, even if it means taking risks that other people would be afraid of. Hey, if they’re afraid and you’re not, more power to you, right?

Your saturation level is very low - you have better things to do than jump headfirst into every little project. You make sure your actions are going to really accomplish something before you start because you hate wasting energy making everyone else think you’re working.

Your outlook on life is brighter than most people’s. You like the idea of influencing things for the better and find hope in situations where others might give up. You’re not exactly a bouncy sunshine but things in your world generally look up

dominant signs: leo, aquarius, capricorn

I got:

Dominant signs: Taurus, Gemini, Aquarius

I have 4 dominant signs (two are of the same percentage)

They’re Aquarius, Aries, Gemini and Taurus

(Please excuse the dying battery. It’s late and I am not in my room)

Cute~~~~

🐣I dislike bikes, and the idea of riding a bike is just- ugh. A lot of weird experiences with it.

🐣I have a lot of favorite drinks, but few favorite dishes. My top 5 would be: Lemonade, Dr. Pepper, Cookies n' Cream Frappé, Vainilla Latte and Black Tea with Lemon or Peach.

🐣I remember little things about 2 of my past lives, is a topic that I absolutely adore!

I only memorize things when I write them down.

I love winter.

I don't like being touched without giving a premission.

I cannot fall asleep unless I brush my teeth. If by change I end up falling asleep, my body will literally wake me the fuck up like "BITCH, BRUSH YA DAMN TEETH BEFORE YOU SLEEP!"

I always keep a glass of water beside my bed.

Literally every cat I've ever had was a stray cat first.

🍊I hate going to the cinema and watching movies. It’s so boring 😭.

🍊I have so many allergies and skin conditions (psoriasis, eczema, allergies to dogs, cats, rabbits, dirt, harsh cleaning products, too much chlorine, the sun and the heat, just to name a few. And oddly enough sriracha.)

🍊I had a psychic reading at age 16 and one of the things the psychic said is that in a past life I was a little Italian girl that perished during the holocaust, but my soul didn’t pass as I became a guardian to my younger sister, which survived. I didn’t pass on until she passed away and now we’re siblings, which I do have a sister one year younger than me and I am very protective of her. The psychic didn’t know I had a sister. I don’t know if I fully believe it but it is one of those moments that made me think, because both me and my sister were always interested in the holocaust and I would spend hours just watching testimonies.

I couldn’t find any interesting facts so I hope these will suffice.

Hey there!

Yeah, these are some pretty intense placements to have but it's mostly intense because of how people react to them in you. To you, the energies of these placements can feel super normal and natural, but to the outside world it's like, "0 to 100, much?"

I honestly don't think Scorpio placements actually feel that their placements are intense. It's just what we've been told it is all these years but it's normal to us, catch my drift?

The reason why I say this is that Scorpio placements are hidden. People can sense but they can't really put their finger on what it is exactly. It's a mysterious energy. For example, Scorpio Mars is not a placement you notice in people. It's not in your face.

It's extremely down low, because y'all keep it hella down low. Whenever I met a Scorpio Mars, I couldn't tell they were a Scorpio Mars but I knew something was up. I could feel it in my gut.

Then I look at their chart and their Scorpio Mars is there and I'm like, "Ahhhhh that was what I was sensing."

It's a real hoot meeting them.

SCORPIO MARS WOMEN

Scorpio Mars women can spend their younger years suppressing their sexuality because of the reactions people have towards it.

I have quite a few Scorpio Mars women as friends and the one thing I've noticed was how they tend to behave very prim and proper in public.

They won't let themselves slip up and accidentally reveal any of their interests sexually because people already sexualize them and project onto them and it's annoying. There's a deep need to keep this side of themselves hidden so they generally tend to come off as pretty conservative.

Unless you're friends with them, then you'll hear so many dirty jokes and innuendos. My Saggy Mars loves being around them. They make it so funny because you would never expect that coming out of their mouth.

So cool. So calm. So collected.

Actually one of the most level-headed Mars placements. Women with this placement are so in control. It's truly admirable.

A lot of people tend to see Scorpio Mars women as crazy bitches that will key your car and slash your tires but you could not be more wrong. They don't care enough to be petty. They'll just ignore you if you want to act like a clown.

Scorpio Mars women know what they want for real.

I think one of the biggest conflicts Scorpio Mars women face is their need for dominance. I mean, society has progressed but you still find yourself at the receiving end of a lot of subtle and even outright backlash for asserting yourself.

You can constantly feel like you're being frowned upon. This can even just be an energetic thing. Like, people can feel the energy you give off and guys in particular, will feel the need to puff their chest out around you and try to assert dominance like a fucking gorilla.

The concept of dominance and control is not inherently a sexual thing for you. It's what makes you feel sane because you know what you're doing and you trust yourself more than anyone else.

You like being in control of where you channel your energy and where you invest it in.

At some point in your life you might find yourself toning yourself down as to not scare the bunnies away but eventually you snap out of it. You're not intimidating, they're intimidated.

You might have experienced a lot of really unhealthy forms of dominance, control, and experiences with people you could considered authority figures.

This could've led to you being really uncomfortable with it, trying to understand it by doing that as well, or you could just block it out of your life altogether, opting to allow others to take the lead.

You find people with depth more attractive than how they look on the outside.

Also, a lot of Scorpio Mars women really love reading erotica and smut. They might even write it.

SCORPIO VENUS WOMEN

Scorpio Venus women can attract a lot of jealousy but at the same time, they attract quite a bit of extremely loyal friends. They tend to gain a really close-knit group of friends in their lifetime.

Not actually jealous and controlling in friendships. They're actually super chill. But when they really want something, they're gonna have it 🔪😳

*coughs* Personal, intimate, romantic relationships though... It's rare you that you show anyone this side of you because relationships like this are what really makes your intensity come out.

They're extremely passionate. Y'all can be extremely upfront and find people being intimidated by you or you can really be the most bubbly person on earth. There's usually an extreme to your personality.

People tend to have very fixed images of you and the kind of person you are in their head. The first impression someone has of you tends to be very set in stone. It's very rare people make an effort to get to know the real you but it's usually how you meet the real ones, they make an effort to get to know you.

When a Scorpio Venus women is interested in someone, they tend to put out very, very strong vibes. They will make it no secret if they're genuinely interested in you but if they have time to play a game or two to see if you can keep up with them, they have no qualms with that.

You cannot bullshit this women. They are lie-detectors in a flesh prison. If they suspect you're lying or keeping something from them, I can guarantee they'll be performing the world's most subtle polygraph test with their mind.

I love talking about sex, sexuality, even porn and kinks. I would joke about them but disrespect and gross sexual remarks are not it.

I won’t say I am prim necessarily but I am very collected and respectful in general, I apparently ask people before I touch them, which I didn’t know I did but I do 😅.

Yeah, you're more likely to only make those sexual jokes or have those conversations with people who get you. Scorpio Mars people don't just go around making gross sexual remarks but a lot of descriptions make them out to be like they're so sleazy when they're really not.

That's so sweet though! Asking before you touch someone, a lot of people don't do that.

I can just imagine you arguing with someone 😂😂😂 you'd end their whole career!

The disrespect!

And oh absolutely! This mouth is like pandora’s box. If you open it, then you better be ready 😂😂😂

I have always dated someone with a fire placements, most predominantly Leo Mars, even though I am Scorpio Mars.

I only have dated a Cancer Sun and a Cancer Moon.

I went on a lot of dates but never had a boyfriend. (Thank you 3rd house Square 7th 💔)

SATURN IN ARIES/SATURN 1H: Your passion that you let burn out too quickly at the face of struggle or mere boredom, the desire to pursue something but is stunted through the intense questioning you go through to discern if what you’re going for is really for you,  lack of hope during the more difficult times, mentality that you can just find something else rather than to dedicate, constantly waiting for the ‘this is it! this is my calling!’ feeling to arrive rather than letting the feeling naturally flow in its own time holds you back.

SATURN IN TAURUS/SATURN 2H: Your fixed mindset and way of life, mentality that whatever you have/are now is okay & there isn’t greener grass on the other side, your lack of pursuit for something better for yourself OR greater than yourself,  excess indulgence in the physical/mental realm, being overly stuck in your ways that you can’t consider a different system/way of BEING yourself holds you back.

SATURN IN GEMINI/SATURN 3H: Your fickleness, lack of dedication to projects/ideas you start, your fear of sharing your voice and putting yourself out there, anxiety behind asking questions to access the resources you need, your lighthearted attitude that doesn’t want to take things serious, giving up from not seeing immediate results, and habit of getting bored during the working and grinding process holds you back.

SATURN IN CANCER/SATURN 4H: Your aversion towards being comfortable, wanting to never settle for anything less than remarkable, not wanting to live an ordinary life, never meeting your expectations of who you should be before ‘settling down’ , the idea of not being memorable, not making your family/those close to you proud, and your fear of settling into who you are now (because you feel you can be better) is holding you back.

SATURN IN LEO/SATURN 5H: Your strict line of expression you chose to show for the world and even yourself, wanting to be acceptable so you compromise and limit your behavior, preferences, and inclinations, your lack of passionate and playful attitude towards living and decision-making that sucks the color and excitement out of your life, playing it safe, limiting beliefs on who you are and what you should do hold you back.

SATURN IN VIRGO/SATURN 6H: Your lack of discipline, lack of implementing consistent steps towards the lifestyle you want, your anxious and nervous thought patterns, the identification and leverage you give your thoughts, resistance towards whatever isn’t familiar to you, lack of grounding and practical planning over what you should do to become the person you want to be holds you back.

SATURN IN LIBRA/SATURN 7H: Your approach towards connecting to others & distance towards asking for help or directly learning something from someone, thinking you can just do things yourself and the rest will come to you, your fear of relying on others too much in any aspect (emotion, mental, financial, business), being overly neutral about everything (aka not being passionate enough) and not letting in the exciting & freeing feelings of just doing what you truly want holds you back.

SATURN IN SCORPIO/SATURN 8H: Your fear of diving too deep into something and it ultimately not being what is best for you, avoidance of investing time and energy into something/someone because you’re not sure if it’s worth it, lack of trying new things because you’re comfortable, lack of immediate identification with what you consider pursuing rather than trying it out THEN discerning holds you back.

SATURN IN SAGITTARIUS/SATURN 9H: Your distinct attitude towards your success (or what you think your success will be), judgement and deep discernment you experience towards influences that enter your path, strict belief system/way you process things, lack of faith and hope that things will work out WITHOUT you completely controlling the outcome, and your habit of sniffing out ‘what’s good for you & what isn’t’ limits new opportunities/experiences from happening and holds you back.

SATURN IN CAPRICORN/SATURN 10H: Your firm views on what your success will look like, inability to be flexible and open to several paths and definitions of success, distancing yourself from relaxing and letting life play out itself, resistance towards letting go of control, visualizing and needing to live up to the vision (YOU created) on who you should be holds you back.

SATURN IN AQUARIUS/SATURN 11H: Your lack of identification with the majority, viewing yourself as so different from the rest, believing that your way of living is not particularly exceptional, hoping too much for things to change when YOU can make the change, your fear of not fulfilling the vision that you had for yourself, and the suffering that comes from thinking you can’t be who you want to be given the environment you’re in, no matter how much progress you make, holds you back.

SATURN IN PISCES/SATURN 12H: Your tendency to be in your head, convincing yourself that you are a certain way & that you can’t change (since you believe this IS you), your lack of a relationship to a greater power or inconsistent connection to this higher force, viewing and prioritizing yourself/your duties in a limiting way that stifles creativity and relaxation hold you back.
