Colleague said, “Wow, i see a lot of struggle” and couldn’t elaborate. What do you see? Tyia!

First off, i want to thank you for taking the time to have a look at my chart.

I’m very new to astrology - just learned about my “big three”. A colleague showed me how to pull up my chart and just as our lunch break ended, she took a brief look and said “wow, i see a lot of struggle”. It absolutely resonates and i never got the chance to ask her to elaborate and I’ve not seen her since!

Brief summary of my life of it helps in any way: Generally a late bloomer. Raised in California. Both parents were abusive. Grew up with mom who was physically and psychologically abusive (I’m now 34yrs old and mom and i are healing our relationship and she started going to therapy). Dad is absent. Life has always felt like an uphill battle. Just when i thinks I’ve found my bearings, all of my effort feels derailed. Currently trying not to crash out about having done the hard thing of going back to school, pursuing a career in healthcare, and after three years suddenly i can’t find work since the beginning of the year. About to start therapy and am anticipating late in life diagnosis of adhd or something similar.

I have many artistic talents, but have not been able to monetize it.

Topics I’m interested in (i do not expect you to look at them all. I’d be thrilled if you could tell me anything at all):

• If anything stands out to you in my chart and why

• I’m craving a soft life or at least some level of comfortable stability. I’m burnt out. Will things get easier or should i just accept that life will always feel like a struggle?

• Any indications of a life partner? I’ve been chronically single. Longest relationship was 5 months simply because i knew they weren’t my person. I’m looking for my person (but i also don’t get out much, so i am aware I’m not serving myself in this department)

Thank you for reading if you made it this far 🙏🏼

Ari Neural - is this legit or AI??

I’m leaning towards AI - the photo doesn’t seem consistent with the Petal cover.

I know nothing about identifying AI music, but i would think they’d be consistent with the photography style. Petal has more noise/grain and feels more like vintage film. The feel of the Ari Neural cover is more like a digital camera, but i also noticed her eyebrows and hair have higher contrast (her hair wasn’t that dark yet and her eyebrows have remained soft irl, but of course that could easily be edited, though it doesn’t match the feel of the other released photos).

What do you think?

(If it’s AI, I’m so so sorry to bring it any traction)

Edit: i didn’t realize the photo is posted on Ari’s Instagram. Considering Neural is using an edited photo of the original, pretty certain it’s all AI.
I hate it here. I really liked One By One 🥲

Help! Why is my soil killing my babies??

Does anyone have any idea why my monsteras are dying? Turning yellow and droopy a week after repotting.

I decided to repot all my plants when i brought home a new monstera. I haven’t had any problems for the past five years until the most recent repotting.

The only thing i can think of is the soil mix i make and keep in a plastic tub in the garage (I’m in Northern California if that matters). All of my plants are in this mix i made, but before i closed the lid for storage, i sprayed some neem oil and mixed it around hoping to prevent pests. Could this be the reason my plants are dying? It’s the only change i can think of.

My mix is otherwise just:
•Fox Farm Happy Frog soil
•Organic perlite
•Miracle grow orchid bark (thankfully no problems with pests)

Again, the only change was adding neem oil before storage.

Worth noting: i only water with filtered water since i know my well water is too harsh for my plants. Every other watering I’ll add half the recommended amount of Purived Houseplant Food and SUPERthrive Vitamin Solution.

Thank you for reading! 🙏🏼
I want to pull out my hair because i can’t figure out why my beloved plants are suddenly dying.

Edit to add: Each time I’ve checked on the dying plants, i found root rot. Not sure why all of a sudden my soil mix is retaining water. Was never an issue before.
