And Kid, Youve Got To Love Yourself. Youve Got To Wake Up At Four In The Morning, Brew Black Coffee,

“And kid, you’ve got to love yourself. You’ve got to wake up at four in the morning, brew black coffee, and stare at the birds drowning in the darkness of the dawn. You’ve got to sit next to the man at the train station who’s reading your favorite book and start a conversation. You’ve got to come home after a bad day and burn your skin from a shower. Then you’ve got to wash all your sheets until they smell of lemon detergent you bought for four dollars at the local grocery store. You’ve got to stop taking everything so goddam personally. You are not the moon kissing the black sky. You’ve got to compliment someone’s crooked brows at an art fair and tell them that their eyes remind you of green swimming pools in mid July. You’ve got to stop letting yourself get upset about things that won’t matter in two years. Sleep in on Saturday morning and wake yourself up early on Sunday. You’ve got to stop worrying about what you’re going to tell her when she finds out. You’ve got to stop over thinking why she stopped caring about you over six months ago. You’ve got to stop asking everyone for their opinions. Fuck it. Love yourself, kiddo. You’ve got to love yourself.” 

I apologize if I ever was a toxic person in your life, I’m maturing more everyday, correcting my wrongs and slowly but surely becoming a better version of me.

Ask your specific question than screen shot! 🧞‍♀️

Many thanks for your enlightening posts on astrology! I wonder Diana if there is a method that will allow me to understand astro placements as a whole? Or do I just have to study and memorise them all one by one? Cuz now I just research them one by one. Venus in Pisces, Saturn in Cap, Neptune in 3rd. Is there like a method I'm missing? A sort of shortcut maybe?

How to Understand Astrological Placements

It is a simple three-step process.

STEP 1: Know the difference between Planets, Signs and Houses.

Planets are the sources of energies that influence our lives. For example, Jupiter is the source of abundance, Venus is the source of beauty, and Mercury is the source of intelligence.

Signs are the categories of our personalities. To illustrate, Cancer is a nurturing personality, Libra is a harmonious personality, and Pisces is an intuitive personality.

Houses are the areas of our lives. Such as, the Second House is the area of our money, the Sixth House is the area of our health, and the Seventh House is the area of our partnerships.

STEP 2: Know what each Planet, Sign and House represents.

THE PLANETS IN A NUTSHELL

Sun – Source of your stamina

Moon – Source of your instincts

Mercury – Source of your intelligence

Venus – Source of your beauty

Mars – Source of your aggression

Jupiter – Source of your abundance

Saturn – Source of your ambitions

Uranus – Source of your eccentricity

Neptune – Source of your intuition

Pluto – Source of your power

THE POSITIVE AND THE NEGATIVE OF THE SIGNS

Aries – Driven and dominating personality

Taurus – Tenacious and stubborn personality

Gemini – Sociable and deceptive personality

Cancer – Nurturing and passive-aggressive personality

Leo – Brave and prideful personality

Virgo – Disciplined and critical personality

Libra – Harmonious and fickle personality

Scorpio – Passionate and vindictive personality

Sagittarius – Optimistic and tactless personality

Capricorn – Determined and greedy personality

Aquarius – Humanistic and emotionally detached personality

Pisces – Intuitive and escapist personality

THE ROOMS OF THE HOUSES

The First House of Self – Area of your self worth, your confidence, how you judge yourself, what you believe your purpose to be.

The Second House of Value – Area of your finances, the money that you earn, whatever you consider as your valuable possessions.

The Third House of Communication – Area of your contracts, the messages you receive, the conversations you have, how you express yourself.

The Fourth House of Home – Area of your actual home, the people you live with, whatever you define to be your foundation as a person.

The Fifth House of Pleasure – Area of your creative passions, your children, the things and places that give you comfort and happiness.

The Sixth House of Routine – Area of your daily life, your health and energy, your schedule at work, your projects and assignments.

The Seventh House of Relationships – Area of your romantic and sex life, your business partnerships, the one person you consider closest to you.

The Eighth House of Transformation – Area of your evolution as a person, what others find mysterious about you, rewards other people will give you.

The Ninth House of Philosophy – Area of your adventures, your beliefs, your learnings in terms of spirituality, what you wish to explore.

The Tenth House of Reputation – Area of your career, your place in the world, how you want other people to see you, your public image.

The Eleventh House of Community – Area of your close friends, your outer circle, the causes that you care about, where you stand in society.

The Twelfth House of Secrets – Area of your own secrets as well as truths that have been kept from you, your intuition, your deepest dreams.

STEP 3: Interpret them all together.

Now that you understand what each of them means, you should be able to interpret any placement simply by combining them.

Pluto in Scorpio in the Seventh House If Pluto is the source of power... Scorpio is a passionate and vindictive personality... and the Seventh House is the area of relationships, then:

A man with this placement has very powerful (Pluto) emotions for the people in his life (Seventh House). He is exceptionally kind and protective towards those he loves (Scorpio), but extremely hateful and dangerous towards those he considers his enemies (Scorpio).

Jupiter in Leo in the Fourth House If Jupiter is the source of abundance... Leo is a brave and prideful personality... and the Fourth House is the area of home, then:

A young girl with this placement could someday have a truly amazing family life (Fourth House). She could marry a wealthy man (Jupiter), and their beautiful, intelligent or talented children would be the source of her pride (Leo).

Neptune in Capricorn in the Ninth House If Neptune is the source of intuition... Capricorn is a determined and greedy personality... and the Ninth House is the area of philosophy, then:

Someone with this placement has the potential to become a cult leader. Spiritual dogma (Ninth House) will be very easy for them to create (Neptune). And their ambitions could push them to preach it to others (Capricorn).

All you need to memorize are the 10 Planets, the 12 Signs and the 12 Houses. Using that knowledge, you can easily assess anyone's personality and make reliable predictions about their destiny.

My life is going to change within the next year and big things are gonna happen to me. An abundance of wealth, happiness, good luck and good vibes are coming my way. I am getting ready to travel and I am ready for money to come flooding into my life and for it to never stop.

Men will fight for my attention and women will fight to be my friend and to be in my circle. I will be exposed to famous people and people in higher positions who will want to help me and be in my life. I am ready to receive everything I have asked for and everything I think of.

Hi Lady Diana! I came from a very christian family, so I have no elders that could teach me the craft. I may even be the first first-generation witch. My question is, how can first-generation witches do magic without guidance? Honestly, I am scared of approaching a diety or doing more serious spells because I might mess up it up. And knowing traditional witchcraft, messing up has heavy consequences.

Advice for First-Generation Witches

I have a friend who decided she wants to be a witch. Asks me for a spell every time she overhears that some date is important to witches.

No ritual has ever worked for her. Not a single one.

Magic sees her coming from miles away then shuts the door to her face. Occult beings want nothing to do with her. Incantations do not wish to be pronounced by her mouth. Witchcraft tasted her and spat her out.

Because to treat the craft randomly is to treat it disrespectfully. Magic pulls away from those who see it as a hobby.

This path is not merely an interest. It is a way of life. Only those who understand this can truly harvest its benefits.

Becoming that person takes a while. But if you start here, you’ll get there fine.
