im a homeless black trans person (i was cut off by my Christian family for being trans) and i’m disabled (OCD, autistic)
i’ve been wearing the same pair of pants for two weeks, my phone charger is broken, but i can’t even worry about that because i have $216 to my name right now, and i owe about $300 to my college for tuition fees
honestly, i have too much money stuff to worry about…but i’m going to just focus on school and clothes for now!

Elemental imbalances occur when an individual has a limited element present in their birth chart and most often an excess of another. An unattended imbalance can cause stress of extremes of an element being projected by ones personality (Think of the knights in the Tarot).
Having 10 planets in the natal chart, including the rising sign, we naturally have a high chance of having an elemental imbalance in our birth chart and personality.
An imbalance of elements often looks like a minimum of 2 planets in an element, often seen as only having 2-0 planets missing from being familiar with that elements associations.
Having aspects from planets that naturally contain the missing elemental energies prominent in the natal chart (example, if you lack air but have many mercury aspects), this can aid the elemental lack, though it will not necessarily bring the elements in ones personality into balance for the planet will still be in an excess sign (example mercury in pisces), and it will still act accordingly to the element it’s placed in.
Fire Signs: Aries/Leo/Sagittarius
Air Signs: Gemini/Libra/Aquarius

Water Signs: Cancer/Scorpio/Pisces

How to balance your elements
When we are unbalanced, we either draw others to use (or us to them) to act as an external reflection of the things we lack within ourselves, however, its possible to engage in other activities that can help bring our elemental lack into appropriate balance that can allow for self-healing and improved wellness.
At times due to elemental imbalances in out chart, we may be drawn to another who has excess of the element we lack (even signs) as to experiences a sense of ‘ying and yang’ by interacting with another. You may find you personally may greatly clash with another, yet you are reluctant to part because they seem to ‘fulfil’ you in a way you can’t explain.
For the element you lack the most in your chart, see the table below to find out ways you can help bring the lacking element in your personality.
Taurus, Gemini, Leo, Libra and Sagittarius on the 5th house cusp can make someone good at playing instruments/drawing/art in general
Water risings/Neptune in the 1st house people have the BIGGEST eyes
I’ve noticed that a lot of people have physical characteristics given by the ruler of the house their sun falls in. For example, one of my friends is a Scorpio sun and rising, but she gives strong Pisces vibes as her sun falls in her 12th house
Pisces venus people have an innate great fashion sense, which they may not even be aware of
Aquarius on the 2nd house cusp could make someone a spendthrift. Aquarius is the rebel, so they may not care about money or their possessions in general
Aries in the 4th house people usually have small boobs unless they have venus/jupiter/maybe sun there too
Mars in the 12th often makes someone really passive aggressive
Virgo in the 5th makes someone really nervous and chatty when drunk. I had a friend who has this placement who literally started cleaning my house because the empty bottles and the dirty cups (that we were still using) were making her uncomfortable
Siblings frequently share the same moon sign
Scorpio venus people have the tendency to obsess over someone they are attracted to even for really long periods of time, and then completely forget about them when another person catches their eye
People are often magnetically attracted to the sign on the cusp of their 8th house
Children usually don’t like people with Saturn in the 5th house (at least at first)
