even zodiacs that are not double bodied express some form of duality in their nature. one quality is a vacuum for the other.
the aries is childlike expansion and curiosity coupled with commanding leadership. aries may be primitive, but they are not followers. they have the spirit of the young, and yet they rule
taurus is known for practicality but is also astonishingly creative. they hold tightly to materials, but also free and one with nature
gemini is the student and the teacher. they need people but are easily self amused. they are the embodiment of duality
cancer is withdrawing but also craves affection. their inner child is dominant, but they are also the maternal mother archetype. they are submissive and yet powerful in business
leo is confident and yet very self conscious. they are ego centric and yet very protective and aware of vulnerable others. their inner child is dominant and yet they are also leaders
virgo are healers but they are self destructive. they are practical and yet extreme idealists. they are solitary and yet need to communicate
libra has strong likes and dislikes and yet they view multiple perspectives of life. they are intellect and intuition and reflect their surroundings
scorpio is solitary but also requires ultra close bonds. they are curious and yet very absorbed in and held to their beliefs. scorpios are healers and yet self destructive
sagittarius is visionary and yet requires logic. they are a student and the teacher. they are open minded people but are not easily swayed in their beliefs
capricorn is concerned with building a working life reputation and also being the dominant parent. they are confident and yet very self conscious and contemptuous.
aquarius is thoughts channeled from higher dimensions, and yet also limitation and skepticism. they are withdrawn and yet also very socially active and people conscious
pisces are vulnerable and yet powerful. healing but self destructive. they are all things that represent duality.

I love this, in a beautiful way it’s only half there and kinda ethereal, which is as it should be since the legends and theories about Arthur are many but there’s not a lot of certainty.
Wasn’t quite such good weather the day I was there - which meant my photos have a very different atmosphere!

it’s okay if you have just some okay days, it’s okay if you don’t do much on those days, it’s okay if all you do is focus on taking care of yourself - that’s enough; your days don’t all have to be spectacular and super productive: taking care of yourself is important
Retired HGV driver and electrician Geoffrey had crippling chest and spinal injuries after his truck flipped in a crash that left him temporarily dead.
Carol, from Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire, said he couldn’t walk long distances, cook or shower without her help and had for years received Disability Living Allowance.
Yet 10 days before Christmas last year, he was awarded zero points in a humiliating assessment for the new benefit Personal Independence Payment (PIP).
He appealed the decision in January – but three months later was diagnosed with late-stage lung cancer.
Already diabetic and having suffered two heart attacks, 68-year-old Geoffrey moved to a hospice while he waited for a date for his appeal.
He died on June 21, two days before it was heard. Then on June 23 the appeal ruled his benefits should not just be awarded in full – but be backdated to January.
Everybody involved in his case can fuck off for me, from the dole twats in the job centre, the ones at the call centre, the doctors involved in the assessment - the lot
but they’re ~saving money~ (which is bullshit considering how the majority of people that appeal, do get their money eventually, and the whole thing is a complete waste of time, money and resources)
to me, the government is essentially saying the lives of the poor and disabled are merely collateral damage in the quest to save a few pennies. they don’t care about us, our lives mean nothing to them.
It is an unspoken rule that if a little kid is hiding under a blanket or couch cushions, you are required to comment on how lumpy the blanket is and pretend to sit on it to try and “smooth it out.”
Also, if you’re playing hide-and-seek with them, it is critical that you search every other possible (and impossible) hiding spot, all the while wondering out loud how they managed to disappear just like magic, before walking right past their hiding spot.
And if a baby starts playing peekaboo you are required to act surprised when they show their face again
If a kid hands you a phone, you answer it
If a kid shoots you with a Nerf Gun you are supposed to Die a dramatic death and explain “ugh you shot me blaahh”
if a kid does their makeup, they are the most beautiful creature ever to walk the earth and you are honoured to be in their prescence
