I don’t really have anyone in my real-life social circles that I can talk about astrology with, but I’m genuinely fascinated by it and love learning more about it every day.
My Big Three are Aries Sun, Aries Moon, Libra Rising, and I’m looking to build, at the bare minimum, an online community of people I can actually nerd out about astrology with.
I want to talk about astrology beyond the surface level: planets, houses, degrees, aspects, symbols, transits, synastry, chart interpretation, all of it. I love going down the rabbit hole and learning how all the different pieces of a chart interact.
I know a lot of people mainly engage with astrology through Sun signs, and there’s nothing wrong with that, but I’m really looking for people who enjoy getting deep into it and can talk about charts and transits for hours.
So if you’re also looking for people to nerd out about astrology with, feel free to comment or message me. I’m down to start a group chat on any application. I’d love to meet people I can learn with, exchange interpretations with, debate with, and hopefully build some genuine friendships around astrology.

I’m 25. Is it bad that I’m genuinely attracted to women in their 40s and even 50s? I don’t have a fetish for older women. Well, at least I don’t think I do. They’re just genuinely beautiful to me, and I usually really like their humor and personalities.
Everyone tells me to stick to women around my age, and for the most part, I do. The oldest woman I’ve ever dated was 7 years older than me (I was 21 and she was 27, although we didn’t make it to her 28th birthday). Most of the time, I date women who are around 2–3 years younger or older than me, but I’m genuinely interested in taking a shot at dating a woman in her 40s. Is that a bad idea? What are the biggest risks or compatibility issues I should be aware of with that kind of age gap? I’m not looking for validation so much as honest perspectives from people who have actually been in large age-gap relationships.

I’m a black male in his mid twenties in case that matters…

I don’t have any relevant body of text to add. I’m just genuinely curious because I’ve been seeing this a lot and I’m looking to be informed. I’m not trying to be malicious at all. I’m genuinely trying to understand how transphobia affects cis women as well, because I don’t think I fully understand that part of the conversation.

Ngl, YoungBoy didn’t fully click for me at first. From 2016-2018 I understood why people liked him, and I thought songs like Untouchable, Outside Today, and Gravity were hard, but I never really got the hype beyond the hits. Idk, i listened to every project he Chas dropped as a fan of music, but it just wasn’t good to me beyond like one or two songs. Then I listened to AI YoungBoy 2 and it’s like something clicked. That whole project has 0 misses. After that I went back through his older projects and realized I think I’m evaluating his music incorrectly lol. The consistency, emotion, and rawness were always there, but it just didn’t hit to me until late 2019 lol.It’s crazy how one project can completely change your perspective on an artist. I wonder if anyone else had a similar journey with Youngboy’s music.

Can someone explain why I’m a Libra rising, but I sometimes get annoyed by certain Libra Suns?

For context, I’m an Aries Sun and Aries Moon, so maybe that’s part of it. 😭

I’ve noticed that with some Libra Suns, I can pick up on people-pleasing tendencies or a reluctance to say how they really feel in order to keep the peace. One of my closest family members is a Libra, and she’ll often hide her true feelings about people for the sake of social harmony until she’s pushed to a breaking point, instead of expressing herself honestly but tactfully from the start. I’ve met several other Libra Suns who seem similar. Conversations with them usually flow really well, and I generally get along with them, but something about that dynamic tends to rub me the wrong way.

Part of me wonders if it’s because I used to have some of those traits myself and can recognize them more easily now. Or maybe it’s my Aries placements preferring directness over diplomacy.

Interestingly, I don’t usually feel this way about people with Libra Moons or Virgo placements with Libra energy. It’s specifically Libra Suns that seem to trigger this reaction.

Has anyone else experienced this? Astrologically, what could be causing it?
