  ♆ Neptune ♆ Lykke Li • "Just Like A Dream"Recap slot: 2:53+
In astrology, Neptune rules the Pisces sign and is seen as the planet who determines your dreams and your imagination. According to astrology, a person "ruled" by Neptune is usually innocent, naive and sweet. At the same time however, Neptune also stands for negative things, like illusions, delusions, confusions and being deceived. Neptunian people can therefore appear as dreamers who might be detached from reality. Neptune also governs addictions.
According to this site and this site:
In my view, "Just Like A Dream" is a perfect match for this planet. Besides the obvious connection through the title, the song is about the end of a love and the deep wish to hold onto it. The vibe of the song, to me, is quite innocent and sweet but at the same time the lyrics can be interpreted as a wish that just won't come true. The protagonist rejects reality and tries to maintain her wish, for example by trying to convince the other person to lie with them one last time, but it's not reality and just simply a naive illusion that might distract for a moment but that won't change the overall situation. She says she'll just replace her lover, yet she wants to hold onto him, which means she's delusional about how easily she'll get over him. You could even say, that this is a form of addiction to the other person. Additionally, Lykke Li herself is a Pisces, which is the sign that's ruled by Neptune in astrology.
To illustrate the connection to the theme, I colored the lyrics based on the colors of this text:
dreams
innocent, naive and sweet
illusion
delusion
addiction
"Letting you go
Setting you free
No longer love
Head over heels
Morning will come
My heart will break
So before you replace me
Lie with me one last time
Just like a dream
Oh come, come back to me
I still believe
If you stay baby, stay with me
Darling I beg, come back to me
Just like a dream
Before you forget
Was I ever real
Before you forgive me darling
For love I can't feel
Before I replace you ah
Lie with me one last time
Just like a dream
Oh come, come back to me
I still believe
If you stay baby, stay with me
Darling I beg, come back to me
Just like a dream
You're making my heart bleed honey
Don't ever forget me honey
Just like a dream
Oh come, come back to me
I still believe
If you stay baby, stay with me
Just like a dream
Oh come, come back to me
I still believe
If you stay baby, stay with me
Darling I beg, come back to me
Just like a dream"

Week 9 “Interstellar Queens” Planet: Mars Artists: Zayde Wolf and Ruelle Song: “Walk through the fire” [(2:22-) About the meaning of Mars: When I was researching Mars, I found out that Mars is the Roman God of War. He rode a chariot with two horses, which represent fear and panic. I interpreted Mars as a planet of fire, fear of the unknown and the cycle of life and death. In Japanese, Mars is 火星 (kasei), which translates to “fire star”. Fire is destruction, but it is also birth and new beginnings. About the song: I wanted to capture the true meaning of Mars and Zayde and Ruelle’s perfectly. The lyric “We wall through the fire, is there a way out” fits into the symbolism of Mars. This fire is the unknown and their internal war. Mars is named after the Roman god of War and Mars’ two moons are named after his horses, which mean fear and panic. Fear and panic are common emotions when dealing with the unknown. They want a way out, a new horizon or birth, which is the end result of fire. The use of fire as symbolism for this conflict perfectly matches Mars fiery appearance. I hope you enjoy this beautiful and deep song about surviving internal conflict and wanting a new birth. Welcome to Mars sweethearts. Links: coolcosmos.ipac.caltech.edu/ask/86-How-did-Mars-and-its-moons-get-their-names-www.whats-your-sign.com/mars-symbol-and-symbolism.html |

DYSLEXYA Saturn
"Hospitalized"BROODS Saturn is a planet that is connected to the concepts of limitation and restriction. Although it may seem depressing on the surface, Saturn's role in astrology is to bring meaning and structure to our lives. The planet Saturn reminds us about the restrictions of matter and time - it asks of our commitment, responsibility, and boundaries. Saturn highlights our need for limitations and self-control, meaning that this planet creates dedication to responsibility and discipline - something we need if we want to succeed in our goals.
Key words are: Structure, Law, Restriction, Discipline, Responsibility, Obligation, Ambition
Saturn also represents all things that have history - such as tradition, and old age as well as the lessons that come with it. Teaching is the primary role of this planet; through its trials, it teaches us how to overcome. If those lessons are studied, individuals under the influence of this planet can be expected to be patient, stable, reliable, persevering, and diligent. Their capacity to focus is also dramatically marked.
When Saturn is placed in an difficult position in the natal chart, people can become stingy and selfish. It depicts the obstacles that we face in life - enmity, disappointments, setbacks, anguish, and suffering. Those under the direct influence of this planet are bound to work hard.
Lyrics
I've never known how it feels to break
Stuck in the waiting room thinking for goodness sake
Don't wanna be the one to comfort no more
I wanna be the one on the floor
Do you think I can make it?
I know I'm six feet away but
I could get overlooked
This part talks about the lack of meaning and structure in life, while Saturn reminds us of the restrictions of matter and time.
Cause I feel like I'm broken but I never got a reason
So I'm gonna jump, I'm gonna push myself until I get hospitalised
Yeah, I feel like I'm broken but I never got a reason
So I'm gonna jump, I'm gonna push myself until I get hospitalised
This part talks about how this planet creates dedication to responsibility and discipline - something we need if we want to succeed in our goals. This person really needs to get under the influence of this planet to get his/her life back on track. This person is also persevering trying to keep the life he/she is living right now and ignoring all the negative things that happend.
I love the sympathy from all of my friends
I wanna feel the hurt so I don't have to pretend
I wanna hear them asking if I'm okay (Are you okay?)
That's all I really want them to say
Do you think I can make it?
It ain't too far away but
Kinda thought I could go back.
Saturn teaches us how to overcome. This person cleary has been through a lot and is trying to forget it but it isn't working, Saturn highlights our needs for limitations and self control something this person really lacks at the moment and is trying to get back.
'Cause I feel like I'm broken but I never got a reason
So I'm gonna jump, I'm gonna push myself until I get hospitalised
Yeah, I feel like I'm broken but I never got a reason
So I'm gonna jump, I'm gonna push myself until I get hospitalised
This space is nutritious
Tasty and delicious
Exceptionally vicious
Everybody feels
'Cause I feel like I'm broken but I never got a reason
So I'm gonna jump, I'm gonna push myself until I get hospitalised
Yeah, I feel like I'm broken but I never got a reason
So I'm gonna jump, I'm gonna push myself until I get hospitalised |

 CAND ICE
NAVA • "RITUAL" (2:17+)
(S06E09, INTERPLANETARY QUEENS)
JUPITER
Day and night
The new frightens me...
Compering love
It kills my vibe
Oh day and night, I'll be waiting for you to come and save my night
Day and night
Got a blurry sight
Each lover after you
After you
After you
It’s like kissing with
The widest eyes
unnatural
To see your lies
Why do we kiss
With sealed shut eyes
I'll take it off
Your disguise
Day and night
There were butterflies
But old routine has killed them all
Day and night, I’ll be waiting for you to come and save my night
It’s like kissing with
The widest eyes
unnatural
To see your lies
Why do we kiss
With sealed shut eyes
I'll take it off
Your disguise
Words that rip out and cut through with nobody to frame it
Running and running but no hope in reaching it
Holding your breath with the thought of breathing it
Mistaking every step with the hope
In learning your lesson with a
heart in stitches
And your MIND BLOWN
Being sober
In a dream land
Always with a mind blown bitch
Day and night
There were butterflies
But old routine has killed them all
Day and night, I’ll be waiting for you to come and save my night

"Ritual" is an aesthetic interpretation of an armour that protects the heart body and soul. Jupiter, as the guardian of the abstract mind, this planet rules higher learning, and bestows upon us a yen for exploring ideas, both intellectually and spiritually. This is a kind and benevolent planet, one that wants us to grow and flourish in a positive way, just like the song, which even in a bad situaltion there can be a sight of optimism and a way to see the good to it.

WEEK NINE
Theme: Send a song representing Venus.
TOUCH by Ghostly Kisses ♀︎ VENUS ♀︎ Timeslot 2:58+ DESCRIPTION Venus is the second planet in the solar system and usually referred as the beautiful twin of earth, and yet also seen as majestic, yet mysterious; the hottest planet and filled with poisonous gases that won't let us interfere with its raw surface. She is also linked to the goddess of love (Venus, in roman; Aphrodite, in greek) and thus represents harmony, love, desire, even sex - also, beauty and art, everything that is harmonic. It reflects in the symbol of Venus being very effeminate, a womanly role model for many women. The aspiration of the goddess to build and maintain relationships as well as the mysterious clouds that shield the planet are my two main takes that I represent with this song. Every day, I keep thinking
About you and I
How good we are together
When we're alone together "Touch" is a song about unrequited and uneven love and desire inside a relationship that has seen a fair share of cracks, the other is isolating themselves from the love spread by Margaux Sauvé. I love the take on this song myself because while we all see Venus as this very sexual figure, she is never dominant in the slightest, always bending and flowing with the wind and the events. There is never a 'break' in the song, the accompanying instruments build it tremendously and the song peaks at the end, it's a smooth transition throughout the song. Can you tell why
Can you tell me why you keep your distance like this?
Can you tell me why you keep me in the dark like this? Sauvé touches on the subject of emotional attachment; known in psychology and love therapy to determine the issues in romantic relationships, yet again hinting at Venus herself, the goddess of love. Some of us feel more reluctant to show our feelings (avoidant attachment; aka. the counter part here), while others do the opposite and leach onto their partners (anxious attachment; fearful) - Ghostly Kisses, on the other hand, shows a normal desire (secure attachment to be close to her partner, she wants to feel the touch and wonders if she will ever. I wanna feel your touch
I wanna feel you
Will you ever? I thought of this song immediately when receiving Venus but I was reluctant to send it as she's one of my more favourite artists, yet there isn't a more fitting song for this planet and the meaning of it all. This is highlighed by the innocence of the song: At the end of the day, Venus isn't a very close-up planet in symbolism, she's more ... influential when it's unbeknownst. She's harmonic in ways that are displayed the best with heaven-like vocals (Margaux Sauvé herself) and the instrumentals (mainly the violins and violas in the song). "Touch" is so harmonious and peaceful, yet does not stay idle in the moment like other planets. Change is needed to prosper in relationships. You read me well
Better than I read myself
I like you best
When there is no one else, only on our own |

 "SCIENCE/VISIONS"
CHVRCHES
♅ URANUS ♅
3:07+
In Ancient Greek mythology, Uranus was the personification of the sky, the husband of Gaia, Mother Earth, and also known as Father Sky.
In astrology, Uranus is often linked with feelings of rebellion, liberation, eccentricity; but also humanitarianism and peace. Uranus is also a representation of the subconscious, but it never loses its sense of rationality, it is not purely driven by emotion.
In science, Uranus as a planet is a cold gas giant and is distant from Earth, the 2nd outermost planet of our solar system and the first one discovered by telescope, as it is not visible in the night sky by the human eye.
"Science/Visions" is a song by CHVRCHES off their debut album, The Bones of What You Believe. As a song, it is a good illustration of the many qualities of Uranus, both mythological, astrological and scientific.
The title itself already signifies the battle between the rational (science) and the emotional (visions), which is something Uranus represents astrologically.
Sonically, the song isn't always inviting, it's quite distant and cold, but powerful: this represents the scientific qualities of Uranus: cold, distant, powerful (as a gas giant).
Lyrically, the song deals with personal liberation and setting free your mind of the negatives. It discusses the battle between the rational and the emotional, but it's also not saying one needs to entirely trump over the other, just as Uranus, whilst always maintaining its rationality, also embodies the subconscious and thus the emotionality that derives from it.

Madison Marie Delongpre
Mercury: Mind, Communication, Intellect, Reason, Language, and Intelligence
Fantasy is a song that about the mind. The song is about dreams, and fantasies to take power and control of them that are all created by the human mind.
The video is rather grim and has satanic nods towards religion as well, which shows off the intellectualism of the symbolic gestures.
Lyrics
Golden
Civilian in your eyes
silver comets tails cover burning bright
I run
fears talon test claw your hair
in the garden
monster lurking there
Smoothen good ganders of the dark
I can see you
Still painting Eden lies
Close your eyes (Fantasy) now
Close your eyes (Fantasy) now
Close your eyes (Fantasy) now
Close your eyes (Fantasy) now
Hope and imperium voice call
In the garden
Fall to the lightning fall
Home again
Dark mother to solemn land
Crimson waters
Ghosts from another land
Close your eyes (Fantasy) now
Close your eyes (Fantasy) now
Close your eyes (Fantasy) now
Close your eyes (Fantasy) now
Imperium dreams
Imperium dreams
Imperium dreams
Imperium dreams
(Close your eyes)
(Close your eyes)
(Close your eyes)
(Close your eyes)
(Close your eyes) |
