it's a name sure but it also refers to a specific type of woman that's a complete ***** in the same sort of way

what you said is the equivalent of someone saying "john? that's a name why are you using it talking about someone picking up prostitutes? what is meant by that?"

names can also have meanings 🤷‍♀️

My friends and I always chuckle after the mention of seeing someone doing a "Karen"

She has Pluto Virgo, and Neptune Scorpio

no **** , but i said i wouldn't use a "single" one to be definitive when there are multiple very slow moving planets that also affect these people's charts

pluto is not the only slow moving thing in a chart so in my view it's senseless to only consider pluto and not say the **** that uranus and neptune and even jupiter and saturn would affect

because pluto isn't so strong that it will define a person's chart without being a heavy influence (through aspects and secondary rulership) anyway

in my view it's completely senseless to attribute these things to one placement and not take anything else into account

no chart is read that way 🤷‍♀️and even your response to what i said was plural not singular

just look it up if youre confused

Wow, that is really rude, is that how you normally speak to people face to face? I don't live under or even near any rocks, I travel the world in fact, so quite the opposite.

So people named Karen get screwed over because their name is now some made-up insult because the name was arbitrarily and randomly picked to insult. My sister is named Karen, what about the many people with the same name who are nothing like what you describe? Just screw them? There are plenty of words that can be used to label that behavior: ignorant, entitled, spoiled, annoying, insane, etc. but I guess "Karen" is the dumb version of those descriptive words.

Also...Libra can be aggressive and contrarian. They're not the meek, spineless people needing someone to hold their hand to get them through the day that many make them out to be. I can see Libra being a Karen (male or female), just as I can see a Libra standing up to Karens. But the Karens have always been with us, and will continue to be.

I learn to appreciate people who can confront you in your face, not to do crap and badmouthing behind your back.

That’s how it usually goes. We’re so damn sensitive and defensive about one thing because it’s in mainstream, and completely ignorant and insensitive about the others.

yup if someone says something dumb i call it like i see it, even to their face

you might travel the world but you don't seem to have much exposure to common phrases

do you feel outrage for "john" too they're not all out picking up prostitutes, but damn is that name used... you're legit being ridiculous and it's sort of cute in the sense that it makes me think of the little prince like that level of outrage about flowers getting eaten by sheep and stuff but it's not like i invented the ******* term here

i just know what it means because i exist and interact with people 🤷‍♀️

people don't think everyone with the name karen is a "karen" that's just stupid, literally no one thinks that so it wouldn't apply to your sister

are you on the spectrum by any chance? i'm not being insulting you just seem to be taking these things quite literally and not for what they are (like your response about living under rocks, which i couldve taken as a joke if it wasn't for your view on the phrase "karen")

As for Pluto, I think I will add my money here BUT, not in the generational sense. I’ll put the money on the transit in Cap. I feel as if many people have been clinging on for dear life, to something, without knowing why. Fear of loss/death/loneliness etc have caused them to lash out, complain and point fingers, at others, to left and right. Problem is that the more they cling on, the worse it’ll get. Those of us that are able to let go, change, and find acceptance-without fear-have gotten the brunt of it. We are also the ones that should guide.

what did i say that was mean? i used a very common figure of speech and it was taken literally, to me that suggests someone may be on the spectrum

it isn't mean to question that, it'd only be ****** up if i thought that made someone else less than, which i don't

it does however mean i need to adjust my communication style to meet them part of the way if that's the case

edit: i've known a few people with asperger's and being aware helps get points across because i tend to speak in ways that aren't necessarily literal

these were not common misunderstandings just anyone would make because they weren't a matter of tone (which is why you think i'm being mean by asking because you're not catching tone) they're misunderstandings that seem to come from taking things very literally and also being unable to see that a name also being a phrase doesn't mean others make the immediate association when meeting someone with said name

posted December 20, 2020 04:09 PM            

as for your other thing like other people have said these sorts of people have always existed it's just a behavior that's being noticed now

i think what you said about transits and so on is accurate to some extent, but i think it's actually coming from a similar place as cancel culture

any undesirable behavior being labeled and put up for others to scrutinize and label unacceptable etc and so on

not to say the behaviors associated with the term are acceptable because they aren't but they're behaviors that have always existed

people are just legit putting all kinds of **** out there to try to force this sort of different mentality on others that appears more accepting and yet actually isn't

so these women behave poorly they're given a name and called out and turned into memes and so on so they can be held up as an example of what not to be, just like everyone else who sort of gets ripped apart
