Top tip to keep your posts accessibility-inclusive cos we know what happens when folks start accepting the de-legitimisation of disability access and inclusion.

It's ME(Jaime)@exceedhergrasp1.bsky.social

#alt4me will summon a volunteer, and @alt-text.bsky.social will auto-generate alt text as a reply to a single image with only text, so it's easy to include!

I was born 3 days before an exact Uranus square the lunar nodes, and this is the 6th square since then. But this current bending has me wondering if it's going to be more chaotic than the Pluto currently conjunct my ASC. Or is it all part of the same chaos unfolding? #astrology

Sun Saturn cazimi was at just 2 arc minutes from my natal Harmonia (40). I live with M.E., pathologicial fatigue has been my teacher for the past 8yrs. Learning that Harmonia is there too is perhaps a sign of lessons learned and a story than can finally change? Still processing this one! #Astrology

As the Sun transits Saturn, I want you to remember that your fatigue is not your personal opponent but an ancient protector of your vitality.

Great news for efforts in the UK and Scotland, thank you for your hard work! 🫶 #pwME #DisabilityNews

Happy #KidLitArtPostcard Day! 🌼🌸🌼🌸 I'm an illustrator repped by @charlottewenger.com & I would love to work on more picture books, book covers, & middle grade projects. I love vintage imagery, nature scenes, animal characters, & curious little objects! #kidlit #illustration www.menekarepka.com

ID: Illustration of a mare & foal in a field, backdrop is a sunrise with tree line & birds. Foreground is a floral hedge with the text that reads: "Rhiannon" under the mare, and "Pryderi" under the foal. Under the image reads: Yvie Juniper-Johnson. Yvie Johnson dot Co dot UK. Illustrator and Writer.

phew! found all 12! just had to turn my head upside down and back to front a few times to find them 😂

An observation test for you - for your inner 8 year-old “The artist has hidden 12 things in this picture. How many can you find?” Treasure magazine, 1964 Official answers coming soon (Even if you don’t reply, could you please ‘like’ or share this one? 🙏)

After I've thoroughly learnt & digested the Welsh folklore & Irish & Scottish folklore, Japanese folklore is next! That's in between all the ancient mythology I absolutely must understand better! How many lifetimes do I need to get through it all, though...? #folktales #folklore #MythologyMonday

curious ordinary@curiousordinary.bsky.social

My final book recommendations for today's #MythologyMonday are for anyone looking for Japanese folktales. The first book by Yei Theodora Ozaki is a collection of the most well-known Japanese tales and the second book by Keisuke Nishimoto is a larger collection containing many lesser known tales.

Deep into my 8H stellium & 12H learning at the moment and am feeling seen! I am that person who will bring up death as a topic of conversation, who feels energy deeply, and sees (mostly unclearly) and knows (most annoyingly cos I just 'know', ya know?) and my Cap 6º Syzygy Sabian Symbol? 🫠

Woke up at a very late 3.30pm with vertigo! Not what I was expecting seeing as rest is supposed to be very good for my health right now. Checked the transits, and Moon is conj my MC squaring my 8H Jupiter. Is it that? 🤔 Or is the Saturn opposing my 8H Mars still in play? #Astrosphere #Astrology

Still coming out of a nodal square to my 11H Neptune, but as it does the nodes get closer to exactly squaring my 5H Moon. Ahhh not the best day for me to be trying to figure stuff out I suppose. 🤯

ID of Yvie's Substack post: Text reads "Eclipsey." Text is light lettering on a dark strip going across an illustration of mountains with two birds in a clear sky, trees and foliage in front. In the foreground is a wooden bowl with a reflection of the mountains, lightning strikes and bare trees.

It's #KidLitArtPostcard Day! Here's a marine-life and mountain view piece for our nature-loving learners. I'm currently live streaming my KidLit wildlife art process on Twitch, I love to bring rich colours to my work with my own stories of their tales. #KidLit #Illustration #Wales yviejohnson.com

Two nights of non-sleep restless legs needing loo at 3am cue whole body flares from brain & spinal cord inflammation so unable to regulate body heat with nausea and... 👀 Where is this in my chart and when will it pass? Was hoping the Uranus into 5H would end it cos it began with the 4H ingress! ❤️‍🩹

Had a hair cut today. Thinking I need more ways to please my 10H Scorpio Time Lord seeing as my natal Mars is at 29º Virgo and a certain Solar Eclipse is landing there soooooon! Any ideas? ✨ #Astrosphere #Mars #Astrology

Doing some Lots studying & cannot get over that my Lot of Eros is at same degree of Leo 7H as my Tom's Sun, my NN & Mary Magdalene 💕 (and Hekate & Pan 😂) with Eros & Juno a few degrees away at the Sun degree of my ex-husband. My Tom's LoE is conjunct my Venus! 💕 #Astrology #Synastry #AstrologerGood

I need some 3H Virgo Eclipse examples please! Anyone got some stories to share or signposts for some articles? Trying to learn learn learn...and stave off the anxieties. Thank youuu! 🙏✨ #Astrology #Eclipse #LunarEclipse #CancerRising

My natal Mars is 29º Virgo 8H! 😬 Will keep you all posted. #Astrology #Student #AquariusRising

Next 🌞Eclipse is on 21 September in 29* Virgo. Consider an astrological Eclipse Reading if the eclipse 🌞 (29* ♍️) is conjunct or opposite any of your natal planets, or the eclipse 🌞(29* ♍️) is conjunct your Midheaven, or the eclipse 🌞 (29* ♍️) is conjunct your Ascendant/Descendant #SolarEclipse

Had a wonderful moment today where I was able to go into the garden, first time since Sunday, and a bright blue Dragonfly lands in front of me on a grassy stalk. 🌿 I sat there, just loving it. So grateful that it chose this time and space to stop and rest. 🦋 A Venus/Jupiter conj my Sun moment? 💕

Natal Saturn at 22º 8H and Chart Ruler. Perhaps slightly touched by Alkes considering the description given! 😳

Chloe Margherita@psychicnonna.bsky.social

Do you have any placements near 24º Virgo? Then you're touched by fixed Alkes, primary star of the Cup constellation

Greetings #KidLitArtPostcard Day! 🦋 Summer is still with us, the birds singing their sweet songs each day. There are a lot of 'B' words in this illo, can you find them? This was created with a sweet animation, an original poem and a vinyl album cover. Thanks! Diolch! #KidLit #Illustration #Art

This has just jogged my dream memory from this morning that I was writing in gold ink, whilst trying to think of the Latin name for James, and travelling through time in a cardboard box, after having watched a football tournament from the sky and rooting for both teams. #Dreams #Pisces

This Pisces moon is currently squaring my Moon, trining my Mercury, exactly opposing my Saturn, trining my Uranus and squaring my Neptune. Semi-sextile and inconjunct my nodes. I just need to eat chocolate and listen to sounds until this feeling is over. 🫩 #Astrology

Whilst Labour MPs are voting to take away my quality of life, my life takes another spin around the Solar System. Smile not guaranteed. Deep, beautiful love for my disabled comrades and allies, and yes, even my adversaries 💕 #BirthdayWishes #DisabilityInclusion #TakingThePIP

Thanks to @crips-against-cuts.bsky.social for sharing that the UN Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities just sent a letter to the UK about the welfare cuts. The UN aren't happy about it! Here's a link to the post on Insta. Please take a look! 👀 www.instagram.com/p/DL2rlS3t8M...

Legit! The flashes of creative insights that have hit me already today now that Uranus is officially in my 5H and if this is how it's gonna go, praise be! ✨🪐😂 (As long as it's doesn't just stay as a lot of excited hot air in my head, mind.) #Astrology #Uranus

OK, ok. It'll be 12º Sag rising for the Solar Return chart, squaring a 10H Mars (whilst also going into a 10H Mars profection year) and trining a 9H Mercury, with Jupiter in the 8H. This feels...like a lot of life forward movement could actually, finally, take place! Though I'm a little scared TBH!

It's Dependence Day for me today. 7 years anniversary of being diagnosed with MEcfs, and told by my GP to quit everything I'm doing, go straight home to bed, and stay there. The denial lasted a good five to six years, how can the mind let go of independence so easily, even if the body demands it?

Full of emotions right now, so where's the moon? 🌙 Oh, it's only conjunct my natal Pluto in 9H and aspecting 4 other planets! 🥹 I am looking forward to Venus in my 5H though, got my Venus return and Venus conjunct natal Moon coming up. Got to let these emotions flow, and ride with the tides. 💕
