Loved this, thanks, made me smile and laugh out loud and maybe blush for a second.

I like your style, It does feel nice to get yourself things or work towards what you want.

What you said about getting gifts of something you were looking for but hard to find made me think or something you want/need but did not realize it yet

Do you have any placements in the 2nd house? I am so curious about how your pluto in the 2nd house is going so far for you.

With a chart like yours, you must be pretty artistic, musical, and/or creative? All that Venus and Libra. Why not channel more of your energy/focus into those focuses?

Love your input on the air fryer bc as someone whose parents and brother are capricorns I can agree they really value preserving energy so I feel it really fits.

Yeah, I think a fair amount of us either like receiving and/or giving massage from people we like or resonate some with the energy of. Its definitely not solely a Taurus nor Venus thing by any means, but when I think of someone REALLY attached to touch and needing to be touched in an affectionate, sensual, relaxing, etc type way, Taurus and Venus are what comes most to mind. And one can be a Cap Sun and have a strong to very strongVenus. I have a fairly strong Venus with Venus in the 7th in wide opposition to Asc and Libra Moon. That's why I pointed out my partner's contrasting energy. She has all that Aquarius (and Capricorn) with Aqua Sun, Venus, South Node, and Cap Rising...but Venus is in the 1st and closest to her Asc (nor does the Taurus IC and chart ruler in Libra help).

Well in any case, I very much enjoy giving and receiving massages as well, and have been told that I give good massages.

That's a whole lot of Capricorn to be surrounded by...poor lass.. "No, you should do things this way, it's better." But yeah, more seriously, I do have a thing for efficiency and improving things. I see that as a blend of predominant Cap, moderately strong Virgo, and moderately strong Mercury in this chart. Cap can be a little controlling at times, but that is something I'm consciously aware of and try to redirect, though to be honest, it mostly comes out with my partner.

The one I got is a large and more traditional, convection oven type design i.e. rectangular with large glass french doors (with a definite gap in the front, rolls eyes). It's mostly steel and glass, and what little plastic there is, is on the front right outer side.

There won't be any insulation going over the front, just the top, the sides, and part of the back. The main thing is to avoid covering any vents, the front with the electronics on it, and unfortunately, I will leave that front door gap mostly alone. Might put a strip of mirrored Al on it, but I won't insulate it. It will only increase efficiency a bit, but hey, even if its only like around 20%, that's better than nothing.

My original one had a large glass bowl with a top made of mostly plastic that fit over the top. That I wouldn't and didn't insulate, because heat tends to rise/expand upwards, and thus all that plastic would have more exposed to greater heat than it was probably built for.

That seems pretty Piscean to me. Actually, one could say that this is the highest expression of Pisces, and why Venus is said to be exalted in Pisces. Also fairly Neptunian as well, but Neptune tends to be a little more passive than Pisces on average (aura color wise, Pisces tends to have a bit more red balance than Neptune, where Neptune is a bit more blue shifted, and red is more active/Yang while blue is more passive/Yin in nature).

Well both my parents have sun square Neptune and mom has Jupiter in pisces and north node in pisces, dad moon in virgo yet Growing up I saw my mom as the controlling perfectionistic one, but dad was chill, accepting, good listener, not pushy. Mom has Venus and mars opposite Pluto and dad has Venus opposite pluto but mars in libra square uranus so a much more relaxed mars.

Not sure if there is a specific sign that rules muscles, but Mars the Planet corresponds to musculature and to androgen (muscle building type) hormones like testosterone. Sun and Jupiter have some correlation via their connection to the Pituitary gland and to growth hormone, but that is more secondary to the androgen hormones, all in all.

This is only speaking in an archetypal sense though. Very, very few people have "pure" Rising Signs. Things like cusping other Signs, strong Planetary aspects, and the condition of the faster moving ruler of the Sign all can greatly alter the archetypal pattern.

For example, if one has 2 degree Aries Rising (i.e. strongly cusping Pisces) conjunct Aries Mercury at 5 degrees, with Mars in Cancer at 20 degrees... well they are not going to be near as athletic, high vitality, and/or naturally muscular as say someone with Aries Rising at 15 degrees conjunct Aries Mars at 17 degrees. The latter will be a "super" or "uber" Aries, because of the addition of all that Mars, and double reinforcement of Aries (Aries Asc with ruler also in Aries. That is A LOT of Fire and Mars energy).

I like to choose my own presents so I would want a gift certificate. I usually give something practical or interesting. Choosing presents could make me overwhelmed.
I want good fashion sport shoes. I was looking at one not cheap brand of sneakers, but I know I shouldn’t…

why instead? 🤔 can still hug someone while i'm high

not doing any hard drugs just weed and lsd, i drank around thanksgiving but havent since was a while before

i havent been sober since thursday morning, but i haven't needed to be so it's fine

i haven't really felt a huge pull lately 🤷‍♀️ i play guitar i sing it's all whatever just a private for me sortof thing i don't see why doing it sober is somehow preferable

and it's not heroin so it's good 😁 not smoking it either currently so that's good too

can only be sober so often, have to balance it out

there's no real substitute for this sort of thing ultimately, there just isn't, and the things you listed are even more enjoyable when you add in drugs

there's a lot on my mind anyway, long story, occult stuff hard to explain, dug very deep lot of **** came up and getting high about it helps a lot

improves my mood and since i've been passing out i'm actually sleeping which is better than insomnia and meditation instead of sleep some nights etc

i'm too restless to focus on most **** and even if that wasnt the case i just dont feel like being sober

i've done it here and there for a while, months at points even and idk it's alright i don't see why it being more than a temporary thing is particularly necessary

He got me an air fryer for my birthday last year, but I kind of wish that he hadn’t. I hardly ever use it, but I’m going to try. I’ve also read about them setting on fire.

I want a new camera, but I also want other things. I mentioned that before. I love presents, but only when I know that the person can afford it.

I know Taurus with AC/Venus. We could sit somewhere and wait for something and she would ask me to give her massage. I thought it was so weird.
However, the other couple Taurus would prefer food to anything.

Loved this response in general.

I think you are right southnode in pisces or the 12th house have lessons around escapism/addiction (it varies how it manifests though), I have southnnode in the 12th.

(Jupiter to the unawakened, more physical side of Pituitary, and Sun to the more spiritualized, awakened, Kundalini reaching to the Pituitary side/process/archetype. Also, purple [Jupiter] vs golden light [Sun]).

Yeah Mars/Aries=Muscles would make sense, they just often go the sports route or personal fitness route and focus more on building up muscle instead of releasing tension from it but someone with Aries and Taurus perhaps would be attracted to this type of work if there is also a 6th house presence as is a service job.

I feel now that it would be cool to do a poll about this LOL, the researcher in me is coming out.

But IDK my husband has taurus rising with sun in libra and a strong 6th house presence and I keep telling him he would be a great massage therapist as he has the hands for it and gives good massages but won't do it for more than 5 minutes so you have to be able to do it for an hour to two hours, I guess that is were the Capricorn discipline is helpful or the hard working spirit of virgo.

He loves cracking backs and giving back rubs though, to dogs too.
