Mars Is In Retrograde
Hi you,
So it's been a while since I did any sort of posting on this blog, mainly because I've been so caught up with all my school work and projects. I just finished two projects and two essays, which wasn't very fun to do. Okay, maybe the two projects were kinda fun. A little.
What have you all been up to lately? For me, I've been really diving into astronomy. I've always been into horoscopes and what not for many many years, but it wasn't until lately that I've really started to learn in depth about it and looked at my birth chart for the first time. I guess it has become a hobby for me, since everyone in my personal life has been telling me to find a hobby to distract me from my heart. It hasn't helped in that way, but I do enjoy astronomy, so I'm gonna continue to learn about it more. If anyone knows any good videos, books, or sites that I can learn more, please do leave a comment! And if anyone is curious, I'm a sun sign Aquarius (Capricorn-Aquarius Cusp) with a Gemini moon sign, Aries rising, Capricorn midheaven and Cancer IC. What a combo, huh? If you know yours, tell me!
I've also been picking up my tarot cards again. I do this on and off a lot because I never find the time to actually sit down and learn about it. I can do "movie spreads", if that means anything to anyone, but I'm no where advanced enough to even consider doing readings for real. I do them by myself or for a friend sometimes but I always tell my friends not to take it too seriously because I hardly know what I'm doing or saying right now. Between the two, I'm definitely more into learning about astronomy than my tarot cards right now, but I really hope I can accomplish both in the future. People never expect someone like me to be into these kinds of things but I think it's pretty fun. Of course, I don't often tell people because I run the risk of people looking at me like I'm crazy or worship the devil or some silly thing like that. I don't. Well... maybe. :)
These are some of my favourite cards so far. Other favourites of mine are definitely The Lovers and The Devil.
Along those lines and to explain my title, yes, Mars is in retrograde. We've managed to move out of Mercury's retrograde but now it's Mars' turn and it's fucking up allllll ya'll relationships. Or so I've been told. So if you're suddenly feeling like you want or need to fix a relationship you have with someone
(parents, friends, coworkers, etc), do it carefully and try not to put blame on one another; just focus on rekindling that relationship because Mars is all ready to fuck up all your shits if you're not careful. As for me, I'm sure you can guess which relationship and with whom I want to fix but I really don't think I should listen to Mars and take any action :\ I'm sure he wouldn't want to either so I'm not even gonna try and bother. It's just going to make things worse than they already are.
Over the weekend, I went to dinner with my cousin, her boyfriend, and their friend Jay for her early birthday celebration. We had sushi and it was delicious. Sushi is always good, isn't it? They're all older than me; 25, 33, 32 respectively, so conversations with them are always interesting and different from the ones I have with my friends. It's weird how different but still similar everyone can be when it comes down to it. 30 is really the new 20.
Here's what a bought at Walmart the other day. These were all things I needed to pick up again because I've run out of them. I saw the Herbal Essence Naked dry shampoo and wanted to give it a try. A quick review: I love it! It does NOT leave a white powdery coat on your hair that most dry shampoos give you, and it does a good job taking away the oil in your hair.
Another product I want to mention are the Neutrogena makeup remover wipes, the hydrating ones. I've tried the regular ones in the blue packaging, but these ones are WAY better! Not only is it more hydrating, but I feel like the formula is stronger than the original ones. It takes away all my makeup without any problem. I've heard a lot of hype towards Neutrogena makeup wipes but I've never found ones that worked well for me and for the longest time, I thought everyone was just over-hyping it. But the hydrating ones are definitely the best ones I've found so far!
Today I picked up the new Cosmo and cuticle remover. I'm slowly getting more and more into doing my nails so it's about time that I picked this up. I also started using one of those buffing blocks, and oh my god, it has changed my life forever! 10/10 would recommend if you're a nail junkie. Even if you're not, using the buffer block to buff and shine your nails is amazing for when you don't want to paint your nails.
Needless to say, this week has been filled with coffee. I don't know when I stopped drinking coffee but since picking it up again, I can't believe I ever stopped. I remember drinking so much to the point that it didn't have any affect on me, which is why I probably stopped. I've always been a coffee addict, though.
Anyway, here's a bunch of other stuff that I did depicted in pictures :D
As for my belly button piercing, it's healing very well and there are no signs of infections. I plan on making a post all about my piercing and how to take care of it, etc. If you have any specific questions about navel piercings, let me know in the comments so I'll know to address it in that post!
I think it's time for me to take a shower and possibly make some food while I indulge myself in some mindless movies or something relaxing like that. Leave a comment if anything interested you because I want to start talking to some of my readers! I, myself, am often a silent reader but let's change it up :)
xoxo.
