Astrological Signs by Ava C

 Astrological Signs 

By: Ava Cody  

Astrology is the study of planets and stars as well as the belief that their movements and positions have an influence on the events, lives and behaviors of people. Astrology is a belief though because there is no real science to prove its impacts on human lives, but many people do see value in them. Within the study of Astrology there are Astrological signs which impact the human lives as they assign a person's characteristics, preferences, flaws and fears. The Astrological sign given to each human varies because they are based on the position of the sun, moon and the planets at the very moment that a person is born which of course varies from human to human. 

There is not just one type of Astrological sign; there are three different types of signs which are sun, moon and rising which are the three main planetary points in a person's birth chart that gives a person an outline of their everyday personality. Rising sign is what gives a person their outward appearance while the sun sign gives a person their unique identity and finally the moon sign which gives a person their emotional reactions. There are 12 different signs associated within each type of sign which are Taurus, Aries, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces which should be thought about as categories. These different categories contain different traits and characteristics that influence the aspects of the three different types of signs and are what a person identifies their sun, moon and rising signs as. 

You may be wondering: how can I figure out my Astrological signs? It is surprisingly easy! You just need to know a few pieces of information about yourself which are your date of birth, time of birth and your place of birth. These pieces of information can be plugged into online calculators which will take these pieces of information and figure out the exact positions of the sun, moon and starts at the very moment of your birth which as we have previously discussed is what assigns a person their different categories of each sign type.

Trans Identity - O. Passmore

  The Trans Identity By: Olivia Passmore   I yearn for the days in which I will feel at one with myself. What am I to do when I cannot even look myself in the eye? How do I accept myself while knowing this is not the earthly body in which I am meant to occupy? I stare and stare and receive nothing but contempt in return. My hair is too short. Lips too pursed. Eyes too wide, cheeks too flushed, forehead too long. How am I meant to change these things in which cause me restlessness When I am stuck in a society that persecutes my very existence? I know who I am. I know what I am meant to be. So let society persecute me if I dare to destroy all that is holy and let myself be reborn. Let society scream in the name of its foreign god and strike me down with the weight of heaven. I will make peace with myself one day, And I will leave society behind me.
