Happy New Moon, assholes. This one's in Gemini during a Mercury retrograde, so fuck us, I guess (I took several astrology classes at my fancy magic school to break up the monotony of all the "don't eat your fellow students" classes).

...that's assuming the moon here is like the moon back home, which, fuck if I know.

	Was eating fellow students a concern? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	For some. Anyone with magical abilities or whatever went to the school. That included fae-created types, like vampires and things. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh. That must have been - interesting. What does Mercury retrograde mean? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

So basically it's a thing that Mercury does (appears to go backwards in the night sky) that supposedly effects (almost always negatively) stuff elsewhere. So like, if you're having a REALLY BAD WEEK of almost cosmic bullshit, check the charts, Mercury might be in retrograde.

It's like almost certainly bullshit, but it's also fun to be like "ooOOoo you broke a glass, Mercury must be in retrograde".

	Wait let me clarify: It was almost certainly bullshit AT HOME but here, I don't know, it's probably for real. A lot of things that were bullshit at home are real here so like, I don't wanna be a dick about things. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	They actually offered classes on not eating people? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	terseness 2021-06-10 05:26 pm UTC (link)
	They called it "self-control" which, fine, sounds better. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	lupas 2021-06-10 05:35 pm UTC (link)
	Fair enough, there's probably a bunch of people out there who need that class. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	terseness 2021-06-10 05:37 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, there were different degrees and focuses. Like, plenty of telepaths took "Self-Control" because the urge to fuck with someone's mind was big enough, especially when you're 19 and an asshole. It wasn't all wendigos. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Ohhhhhhh you sweet summer child.

So a new moon in Gemini is like, normally a cool thing, I guess, if you like Geminis which I don't. Normally a new moon in Gemini is like, okay, come up with travel plans, get ready to go with the flow, roll with it, it's all good. But with Mercury in Retrograde, shit's fucked, so expect cancellations, revisions, redoing shit, etc etc. Also communication's not gonna be great, so speaking poorly or saying something and having to walk it back bc that's not what you mean? Yeah. That's what I mean by the fuck us.

	Don't call me that. I'm obviously a fall adult. ~~That's not good~~ Are you a soothsayer then? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	terseness 2021-06-10 06:16 pm UTC (link)
	LMAO God I hope not. Seems stressful. But I did take a bunch of classes at my fancyass magic school about reading the stars, so that sometimes comes in handy. Maybe it's the same thing as a soothsayer. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Shite, mate, you can't be assuming moons are all the same. There was a bloke here who said his was all in pieces and a whole moon was strange. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	terseness 2021-06-10 05:34 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, my roommate up until like, last week, was from a place that has moons for days. Wild. I bet astrological types here have a field day. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	worstchosenone 2021-06-10 06:33 pm UTC (link)
	Bloody multi-moons? That's a little excessive. Never understood the point of astrology anyway but I guess I don't have to worry, yeah? This moon seems the same as the regular moons. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I do not know what that means. We did not have astrology, only astronomy. What is your moon back home like? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	terseness 2021-06-10 05:48 pm UTC (link)
	It's just like-- big, covered with craters, no atmosphere. Some people say it looks like there's a man in the moon, but it could be a woman, who knows, let's not pigeonhole people. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	muleonis 2021-06-10 06:05 pm UTC (link)
	Ah. It is not different from ours. At least I do not think it has changed considerably since 1979. Sirius didn't mention anything. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't know if the moon here is the same as home or anywhere. I've only really been affected by it once when Mako showed up, but I've kept inside on full moons anymore just in case. Also I don't eat anyone. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	My Self-Control profs would be proud. I had a friend who was a merman back home. He changed whenever he hit water, but was working on controlling it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	We tried the self control thing? Or...well, I was still scared of the ocean at that time, so I didn't really, but I haven't really gotten any better at not becoming a mermaid without the necklace I got. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
