Here's to BTS.

Here’s to Rap Monster, who has dreamed of this moment since his debut. Who used to perform as an underground artist as a student and who led his group so well despite his young age, despite of his uncertainty and fear for the future. Who gave up entering a good university for his passion for music and has spent nearly every night writing lyrics and making songs even till the early morning, even while waiting to go up on stage and even when they are on the plane flying to their next event. Who always writes such thoughtful tangents on loving ourselves, trusting our youth and our passion, forgiving ourselves, and appreciating everything that we have in this world. Who shows us every side to him even though he’s scared of the vulnerability. Who never forgets to thank those around him even if he does not know them personally. Who always thinks of us wherever he goes and who is always rooting for us in whatever we do. Truly without him, BTS would not be the BTS that they are today.

Here’s to Jin. Who has shown us that hardwork is everything. He started at Bighit as an actor, and he has practiced every single day to become the amazing performer that he is today. I think of how he called his vocal trainer at 4am to show her that he has improved and I get so proud. Here’s to the oldest member of the group. Who constantly showers his members and his fans with love. Who was the one that cooked for the members, borrowing food and tools from his own family when BTS could not afford to, who made sure that every member became comfortable in Seoul when they first arrived at BigHit. Who is always there to make us laugh with his silly gags and jokes, who is always there to make us feel loved. You worked hard to improve, you worked hard to be where you are right now. You deserve this.

Here’s to Suga. Who learned what it meant to be an adult at such a young age. Who used to perform for audiences of two and not have enough money to even buy ramen. Who used to listen to people constsntly tell him that he would ruin his family. Who came up to Bighit as a trainee and still worked hard, studying and working part time, even though he was fighting with suicidal thoughts, depression, self-hatred, a broken shoulder and more. Who spends countless of sleepless nights working on music and lyrics, even on the nights that they are on vacation or when they just come back from a performance. Who truly showed us that though the start may be humble, the end will be properperous. Thank you for teaching us what it means to live with passion, thank you for always working hard even if you don’t need to. You may not believe it, but this award is real and you deserve it. You’ve achieved all of your goals now!! You’ve worked hard to be where you are. Thank you for showing us that hardwork will never betray us.

Here’s to J-Hope. Who was a street dancer and came into bighit planning to become a vocalist and dancer. Who, when everyone doubted his skills, practiced even harder to become the well-rounded artist that he is now. Who taught himself how to rap and how to write lyrics despite having little experience in that area and is now one of the main creators behind bts’s music. Who practices every night, working on his mixtape and working on his dance skills, because he loves to do so. Who shows us what it means to live with hope and who never fails to show us happiness even in the most difficult of times. I hope you know that we are aware of how thoughtful you are, I hope you know that our love for you is eternal, and I hope you know that you too are more than deserving for this reward.

Here’s to Jimin. Who was a diligent student that studied dance so passionately. Who spends nearly every night in the practice room because he thinks “who am I to be resting right now?” I think of how you cried when people doubted your skills and I hope you know that those people are completely wrong. Your voice is something that touches our hearts and moves us and your skill in dance never fails to amaze us. You belong on stage. Here’s to Jimin. Who also showers his members with such adoration and affection, who is always there to comfort them in the darkest of times. Thank you for showing us what it means to be a good friend and brother. Thank you for showing us what it means to be kind. I hope you know that we love you just the way you are and that it’s okay to rest and to make mistakes. Please don’t ever doubt yourself.

Here’s to Taehyung. Who had to get the help of the bighit staff to convince his family to let him begin training. Who wanted to be a farmer so that he could help his grandmother in Daegu. Who has been so strong throughout this difficult year. Who constantly shows us new sides to his personality. Who constantly works hard in all that he does. Thank you for never failing to put a smile on our faces even when you were going through such a low point and thank you for teaching us what it means to be a filial child. Thank you for loving bangtan just as much as we do and thank you for always being so kind and bright. Your stage presence and skill never fails to amaze me as well. We will remember your grandmother and we will always thank her for her blessings. You are more than deserving of this award.

Here’s to Jungkook. Who started training at such a young age, who was so shy and insecure about himself. Who left his family in Busan to come up to Seoul when he was just 14 years old. Who cries when he thinks of the hardships that his members are going through. Thank you for trusting your brothers and your future, you deserve all the love in this world. I hope you learn that it is okay to not be strong all the time. Thank you for showing us your growth and your endurance and passion.

Lastly, here’s to BTS. This whole entire post of mine is incredibly cheesy but they really do mean a lot to me. Not only do they brighten every day with their humor and antics but they each have taught me so many things and they constantly inspire me in all that they do. They have taught me to dream, to be diligent, to be loving, and to trust my future. More importantly, they have taught me what it means to be young. So here’s to BTS and their first daesang. You deserve it more than anybody in this world and you each are deserving of all the love in this universe. Thank you for showing us that we never are alone and thank you for understanding us and showing us what it means to achieve your dreams and to live with passion. We hear your voice.

Here’s to the first of many more :)

Hi ledgem! Thank you so much for this message! You have no idea how happy it made me. I'm literally jumping all around my room and screaming ;) 

This is the nicest thing that happened to me for a long time. And absolutely don't apologise for this, you're wonderful person! If I could I will hug you for this! <3

I'll try to post the works as often as I will be able. Thank you again and have a great day! 

as an alternative to a fan mail

dear vicdin,

I apologise for pouncing on your art tag like the hungry locust that I am, but your art is absolutely stunning & gorgeous & you are an unbelievably talented artist.

the sounds I just made while browing through your art were probably not human and rather high-pitched.

thank you for sharing your amazing art with us, and I hope you are having a wonderful evening/day!

Okay so,

There seems to be this negative reaction to the finale from a lot of Devil's Minion fans and I don't understand it for a lot of reasons, but one of them is ... I don't get why people are upset that, when read at it's worst, Armand and Daniel are seemingly not on good terms after Daniel is turned. I keep seeing this belief that Armand "abandoned" him, which I think is fully pulled from y'alls collective ass, and a disappointment that Daniel would call Armand a "fucking asshole."

But the thing about Armand/Daniel everyone seems to be forgetting is that even in the source material, they first had to tear each other down to their bare bones before they could see each other well enough to love one another -- REALLY love one another. Because Armand is a russian nesting doll of lies, masks, and emotional walls, and with Daniel, idek if I can explain it properly, but I think its some combination of Armand needing to break him a bit to get him on his level of broken freakitude, and also Armand not being able to relate to the 20th Century Human period and needing to drill down into Daniel's core, straight down into the monkey brain that every homo sapien has shared for eons, before he can find something he understands.

If we were to ever get a proper Devil's Minion storyline on this show (and we will), they've laid the perfect groundwork by having Daniel EVISCERATE Armand right to his face, slicing his Gorgon's knot of lies and schemes in half and leaving it lay on that table. And Armand's face! HIS FACE! He can't believe it! Seventy-seven years with Louis who never could unravel all the strings, or simply didn't care to even bother. And THIS guy who seemingly hates him found Armand fascinating enough to try. AND succeed!

And why wouldn't he? Daniel may not have remembered until they were nearing the end of the interview, but Armand SHOWED Daniel what was beneath the mask years ago, the very first time they met. The jealous, insecure, desperate creature that was hiding under there, that IS Armand to Daniel.

I'm getting off track here, but what I'm trying to say is that as much as Armand turning Daniel in the books is SUCH a flawless scene, ultimately, if you believe in the infinite and eternal nature of their love story, it doesn't matter whether Armand turned Daniel before they fell for each other, afterward, during a break-up or at the climax of their most romantic streak. Like Lestat said, "We'll be together ten thousand nights, a hundred thousand. What we're doing is hard."

So maybe Armand turned Daniel shortly after Daniel stripped him bare in front of Louis, and Louis was so disgusted by what he saw, he threw him into a stone wall. Daniel could have run, too. For some reason, he didnt. Armand could have killed him in an instant, sitting at that table or after Louis left. He didn't. Armand made a conscious decision to tie himself to this man who just exposed him for ETERNITY. Because as horrific an experience as it was, as devastating and life-altering, he was seen.

"It is difficult to explain how his words disarmed me, how efficiently succinct and impenetrable his argument was. All my conceptions, even my guilt and my wish to die, seemed utterly unimportant, and I completely forgot myself and the barbaric scene that surrounded me. For the first time in my life, I was seen."

Louis said those words about Lestat as he described being made a vampire, when he kissed Lestat on the altar.

That feeling, of someone cutting to the core of you and telling you exactly what you are as no one else has ever been able to understand, made Louis accept the Dark Gift from Lestat.

And it made Armand give that Gift to Daniel.

consider: teenagers aren’t apathetic about everything they’re just used to you shitting all over whatever they show excitement about

Jupiter & Notoriety: Vedic Astrology Analysis

Jupiter nakshatras being ruled by the largest planet contains a reservoir of energy, this sort of natural internal abundance translates into magnetism and make them easy targets. They are easy for people to project on to and due to the expansiveness of Jupiter, its hard for others to comprehend the full depth of their being; therefore, they are easily misunderstood. Due to the difficulty of truly understanding these natives, they carry themselves with an air of enigma and mystery and this makes them intriguing public figures who captivate the interest of the public for a long time.

We must ask ourselves what makes someone a star? Popularity may come and go, and several popular idols have their moments but some people just radiate a star quality and aura. Their fame seems consistent, they are ALWAYS talked about. The long staying nature of their fame has another side, these women also receive immense hate and are often subject to public vilification. Their fame is always warped around controversy. There is a fine line between fame & infamy and these natives seem to walk on it.

More than any other planetary rulership, Jupiter women always seem to trigger people in ways that seem almost incomprehensible. But love them or hate them, they are always winning.

I have noticed an interesting pattern with female Kpop idols so we will begin the first part of our analysis in the context of Kpop

Being an idol in SK is far from easy and if you look at the most successful/popular idols, they have all had their fair share of controversies. They are constantly talked about, written about and often have the most batshit rumours spread about them. K-pop idols who are considered "it girls" are known for their "Ice Maiden" looks OR attitude (sometimes both) and most of them have gotten into trouble for it.

By the very nature of the K-pop industry that thrives on secrecy & restrictions, it comes as no surprise that the women who make it to the very top are Jupiter natives. Jupiter cannot be restricted, cannot be tied down and cannot be hidden. In an industry where nothing about the private lives of idols are known, these women gain attention for whatever little is revealed about them. They are subject to constant speculation & scrutiny. The mystery of Jupiter makes them endlessly intriguing. They are the subject of all kinds of controversies & discussions & rumours. But one thing about Jupiter is that, it WILL survive and THRIVE. It makes the native indestructible. The kind of experiences they have could scald and extinguish another person entirely but NOT them. They emerge from it as victors.

Disclaimer (bc someone will most definitely come for me): I'm going to mention idols who have had a significant impact on Korean pop culture and are most commonly referred to as "it-girls".

The idols most commonly considered "it-girls" are, Suzy, Jennie & Wonyoung for the 2nd, 3rd and 4th generations respectively.

Suzy

Hasta sun, Mula moon with Vishaka stellium (venus, jupiter & rahu)

she has venus in vishaka atmakaraka and jupiter in vishaka amatyakaraka

Jennie

Jennie is Uttarashada sun & mercury with Vishaka moon and Ketu in Revati

She has saturn in purva bhadrapada as her atmakaraka and mars in shravana as her amatyakaraka

Wonyoung

Magha sun, Purvabhadrapada moon, Punarvasu venus & saturn (her amatyakaraka) Jupiter in Uttaraphalguni atmakaraka

Ketu in Swati

The 3 biggest female idols of their era all have heavy Jupiter energy in their chart.

All of them have either their atmakaraka or their amatyakaraka in a Jupiter ruled nakshatra

2/3 of them have a Jupiter ruled nakshatra as their moon.

2/3 of them have more than one Jupiter ruled nakshatra in their big 6 (Suzy who doesn't, has a Vishaka stellium)

Suzy, Jennie & Wonyoung are the face of their respective era in kpop but are almost always embroiled in one scandal or another. Despite the vitriol, they remain immensely successful.

Its very common for Jupiter natives to come from either extreme of society; they either grow up poor or they grow up very wealthy. Both Jennie & Wonyoung come from very wealthy families whereas Suzy grew up financially struggling and had to work to support her family.

Other idols who are popular in SK

IU

IU has been in the industry for over 15years at this point and has achieved the kind of success that is rare for anybody, especially for a solo artist. But she has had faced scandals that would have put an end to anybody's career yet all these years later, she's still standing.

She has Krittika sun, Purvabhadrapada moon. Revati venus atmakaraka and Pushya mars amatyakaraka

Karina

Karina has also consistently been popular since her debut. She is a highly talked about idol. Not quite an it-girl yet but she's very popular without making much effort (looking at you SM)

She has Revati sun, Punarvasu moon

She has been controversial since even before she made her debut and she's always the centre of media attention and (sadly) vilification.

Now I'll talk about Jupiter women in other countries

Rekha is perhaps THE most iconic Indian actress and she is just as relevant now, as she was when she made her debut 50 years ago. She is a highly controversial and kind of polarising figure but she has had people on chokehold for half a centuy. She has Purvabhadrapada moon.

From her rumoured affair with the much married Amitabh Bacchan, her ex husband's suicide, her literally never giving interviews, Rekha has always been shrouded in mystery and continues to captivate people.

Katrina Kaif is one of the biggest stars in India. She is one of the most successful and definitely one of the most talked about actors in the country ever since her debut over 20 years ago. Several controversies have marred her career and she's perhaps become even more famous because of them; her relationships, Ibizagate, alleged affairs etc

She is a bit of a polarising figure but no one can deny that she's one of the icons. She has Punarvasu sun atmakaraka

Priyanka Chopra is another actress who has had a long career and her fair share of controversies both in India and Hollywood. Everything from her accent to her wedding and choice of partner has been picked apart and criticized, yet she's still as relevant now as she was when she first won Miss World as a teenager. She is a Punarvasu sun and her Punarvasu mercury is her atmakaraka.

Miley Cyrus is a very controversial yet perpetually relevant celebrity. She has Vishaka moon & mercury with Punarvasu mars

Katy Perry is another controversial popstar. She has Vishaka moon & saturn (her atmakaraka & amatyakaraka)

Beyonce has always had her fair share of controversies (Illuminati, anyone?) but no matter what, she IS Beyonce. She has Vishaka moon.

Lana Del Rey, yet another polarising and controversial public figure. She has a Vishaka stellium (her rising, saturn and ketu) its also her atmakaraka.

Having a Jupiter ruled nakshatra as your moon means experiencing Saturn mahadasha at a young age. This creates difficult life experiences and strong karmic lessons are learnt, however as KRS once said Saturn mahadasha is also the time when immense success can be achieved. Saturn is karma and Saturn is a disciplinarian. It punishes but rewards. The careers of many of these women seem to serve as testimony to the fact that success (bestowed by Saturn) can be a double edged sword, hurting the one wielding it.
