when you first meet someone, cross them on the street, or encounter them in the professional setting - you see their midheaven sign when you are no longer strangers - you see their ascendant when you become friendly - you see their venus sign when they let their guard down around you - you see their moon sign but if you meet somebody who is very distressed or feeling unwell - you see their moon sign if you meet somebody who is enraged, competing with you for the job, or in a mad rush - you see their mars sign
and the sun sign was there all along, shining through every planet in orbit, shining through everything
i’m seeing a lot of people reblogging suicide hotlines and this is just a reminder that this is a suicide help line that works like a text-based instant messenger for people who may need to talk to someone but have trouble/are uncomfortable making phone calls
I am every person in this conversation.
it feels good to know that some people kiss for the first time today, some people finally get their dream job, some people finish reading their favorite book, some people get over someone, some people win against their disorder, some people have a baby, some people go on vacation, some people reunite, some people find a new favorite song, some people sleep next to each other, some people live today, some people survive today.
