O.m.g. you SAID you wanted more Astro-Beauty so voila;

Citing your Sun, Moon, Venus and/or Rising Sign – what are your thoughts on Eye-Lashes…Are mascara ad claims a load of shit? Is mascara toxic? Does the actual word ‘mascara’ really come from the ancient Arabic ‘mask’?  Is it better to just get lash tint? Would/could u get eyelash extensions OR risk (apparently) blindness by using one of the new swift-fix style druggie products for doll-like lashes in a few weeks? Eyelash curlers – fabulosity incarnate or a tool of some anti-feminist devil? Are eyelashes the ‘curtains’ of the soul – brows being the frame and eyes the actual window – and if so, so what? Also, do you bat your lashes???

I do and yet i only realise I am doing it if a girlfriend points it out. It’s subliminal…And I love the blue-black lash tint but really, it only lasts a few weeks if that. Love eyelash curling, flip out with gunky mascara & don’t even enjoy the ‘ritual’ of applying it…My Piscean Beauty Fanatic Friend who is expert on everything from Khundalini Yoga to Botox says just olive oil EVERY night on the lashes makes them grow and it is obviously non-chemical/toxic but you have to do it for at least a month to see an effect.

“…I have an austere temperament,” she says. “There are things that give me no pleasure: objects, clothes, jewelry. I’ve worn them all, but all that stuff interferes with my daily life.” She does her own hair. According to her friend Farida Khelfa, “Carla hates shopping and would wear the same pair of trousers every day if she could.” Makeup doesn’t interest her—”It takes forever and doesn’t make you look better after 30…”

From Vogue

Her chart is here & what do we see???

She has a poetic, musical & romantic Grand Water Trine with her Cancerian Ascendent trine Venus/Neptune in Scorpio and Chiron in Pisces. She has to have a creative outlet…Her Nodes are the reverse of Madonna’s so she comes comes from luxury but with the vision of learning to value more subtle manifestations of the light. Note – the literal meaning of luxury is ‘of the light’.

Saturn in Aries on the Midheaven – climbs, responsibility will become a leader as Uranus first squares her Sun at Zero degrees of Cap and then crosses the Saturn & midheaven from 2011 and beyond…Through annhilating (Uranus) some dominant paradigm?  Or a stupendous scandal? Moon-Pluto in Virgo…Austere temperament indeed. Would not pay to cross her…Maternal mortality as cause of her heart so fits the astro.

It just occurred to me that there seem to be two broad types of Capricorn….The austere ones & a slightly more earthy & robust variety a la Nigella Lawson – she of the cupcakes, goosefat and pragmatic sense of  humour.

It’s the same with Aquarians: You get the ravingly bats don’t-fence-me-in Uranian types & then a more Saturnine version (Saturn being the ancient ruler of Aquarius, before Uranus was discovered) with the clinical demeanour and dislike for anything not scientifically proven. Pisceans too are often either Jovial or Neptunian…As in Jupiter was their ruler before Neptune.  So you get these bon-vivant Pisceans prancing about who are more like Sagg & then these Neptunian entrancers gliding about, between worlds & official mystics.
