Gothic Description of Rising Signs
Aries: Every day is an exciting day. You run around the house with your dog. He thinks you’re funny. He’s the only one who thinks you’re funny. Yet, you smile.
Taurus: Getting dressed in the morning is your favorite part. You get up, brush your teeth, get dressed, stare in the mirror & point out the physical & emotional imperfections and go to work. You put your mascara on last so your coworkers do not know what you saw looking back at you in the mirror. You do not like it, but they seem to. You wonder how they get by with such low standards.
Gemini: You spend a moment screaming ontop of a trash can. You have no moved for hours. You chant your mantra, and hope they hear you. You want them to know you are not alone… yet you’re the only one screaming. No one has ever joined you, and they know only you feel so feverently towards these issues. Why is everyone so numb? You ask. You receive no answer, and decide to continue your chanting.
Cancer: Comfort comes in many forms, you think. Comfort comes in the arms of a loved one. Comfort is the love your pet has towards you. The soulless eyes of the demon in your bedroom. The hope in the eyes of a child, and the cross above your doorway. You wonder if the cross is what keeps him in your room.
Leo: You are the sun of your own, uninhabited universe. You give so much, for nothing. The worlds only stare back & ask why you would sacrafice so much. You have no answer; eventually, you turn cold.
Virgo: Today is Day 1,440 of your routine. You’ve been at this for several years now. Will she ever stop? People ask. Does she ever get tired? They wonder. No, and no. You think. You continue with your routine, finding comfort in the sound of your high heels hitting familiar tiles.
Libra: Yes! No… yes. Nope! Yeah! Nah.. they all stand infront of you, giving their own opinions on you, your body & mind. They tell you to smile. You smile. They tell you to sit, you sit. They tell you to laugh. You laugh. They ask you why you’d want to be alive. You don’t have an answer. You live your life for others too much to have an answer. They tell you to find one. An important, but impossible task for you.
Scorpio: You walk into the room and everyone looks toward you, but not at you. They avoid eye contact, as though if they meet your gaze you’ll turn them to stone. You know they are not wrong.
Sagittarius: The world is exciting to you. It has no limits. No boundries. Only they have boundries, you think. You aren’t sure who they is, but you know you don’t like them. They. They don’t like you either, you know. Not since you said you-know-what to you-know-who.
Capricorn: A teacher once told you to never let another kid bully you. That bully’s were just victims of other bully’s. That they took their power back, by taking the power of others. You took it to heart. You don’t know how, if you became the bully or if you simply just started helping people realize harsh truths. Either way, not many people like what you have to say about them.
Aquarius: You arrive to the party late, fashionably so. Exactly 1 hour past the time of typical entry. The room’s eyes immediately glue themselves to your outfit that hardly covers any of your skin. How exciting, they think. They wonder what crazy thing you’ll do next. You don’t even know the answer to the question.
Pisces: You forgot what the ground felt like after floating above it for years. Occasionally, the people who stayed upon it called you down, asking for your love, your imagination & your hope. They told you they wanted to be your friend. They lied. They wanted the parts of your mind that allowed you to fly… why did you give it to them?
