“Why does it make me so angry when an unattractive woman is dating a handsome man?” — We explore what that anger reveals about what you truly value. If this anger exists, then perhaps, according to your own values, appearance actually comes second. *Please note that this is merely my personal analysis based on the structure of the stars. Some readers may find it offensive. However, if it serves as an opportunity for people to pause and reevaluate these values that are taken for granted, I believe it will have been worth writing.

Here, We're Actually Going to Work on Your Appearance If you've read the paid article up to this point, you may be thinking: “So this whole series is basically saying I should focus on what's inside rather than my appearance, right?” But here, we're going to do something different. Here, we're actually going to work on your appearance. Of course, what's inside matters too. However, the theme of improving what's inside you isn't something that can be completed in this one article. A person's inner self is something that needs to be improved little by little, from all kinds of different directions. In other words, you won't truly solve that problem unless you go through all of my articles and learn to make use of many different parts of your own chart. So we're not going that far this time. What we're going to do here is: adjust the energy of your appearance. And to do that, the first thing I want you to look at is— ASC What we're looking at this time is your ASC (Ascendant). What Is the Ascendant? First of all, what exactly is the Ascendant? The ASC is the sign that was rising on the eastern horizon at the exact moment you were born. In astrology, it is deeply connected to how you appear in this world. And by “how you appear,” I don't simply mean how other people see you. Think about the state of being before you knew the world, before you had come into contact with anyone else. The state of you before outside influences had shaped you. The ASC can show us your natural, unfiltered state. That is why the ASC also reveals your natural energy. And that energy can appear in things such as your appearance, atmosphere, and aura. In other words, your ASC can show you what kind of appearance and atmosphere feels natural for you. And that is exactly what we're going to look at here. Why Look at the ASC? This is the most important part of this article. When people try to improve their appearance, they often jump toward whatever is currently being praised by society: “This is what's trending right now.” “This face is considered attractive.” “This hairstyle gets attention.” “This kind of outfit makes you look beautiful or handsome.” In other words, the appearance that other people currently approve of. But is that really right for you? The Ascendant represents something much more natural. The ASC shows your true way of being and your natural appearance. And if that's the case, it's also your natural breathing itself. The state in which you can simply stop forcing yourself and go, “Phew…” and breathe naturally. That is the ASC. Breathing is supposed to happen naturally and directly. Imagine putting something artificial into your respiratory system. Or replacing part of it with someone else's. Or attaching all kinds of things to it simply because they're fashionable. Of course, it would become difficult to breathe. That's exactly the point. If you keep adding things to your ASC that don't belong there— “This looks more fashionable.” “This makes me look prettier.” “This will make me more attractive.” —and keep piling on things that don't actually suit you, then naturally, life itself becomes harder to breathe. That's why your ASC is the part you need to keep the most beautifully balanced. This isn't about saying, “Become more beautiful.” It's about: making yourself look and feel the way that allows you to live freely and comfortably. That's what we're talking about here. Where Do You Look? Now, let's actually look at a horoscope. For this example, we'll use Yayoi's horoscope. Click here to create→➤Create Your Birth Chart in 3 Minutes First, look at the left side of the chart. You should see a place marked “AC.” This is the Ascendant (ASC). Check which sign that ASC is pointing to. In Yayoi's case, ASC: Aquarius That's the point we're going to look at this time. Discover Your Natural Appearance Through Your ASC Sign From here, we're going to look at the characteristics of each ASC × 12 Signs. I've organized them around three points: ① What kind of appearance and atmosphere do you naturally have? ② What kind of beautiful woman or handsome man can you become? ③ How can you breathe naturally? ASC ① What kind of appearance does it create? ② What kind of beauty can you become? ③ How can you breathe? ♈ Aries Simple and active. Sporty, light, and not overly decorated. Sharp movements and expressions create a youthful impression. A vibrant, energetic beauty / a fresh, masculine-type handsome man “It's okay to move.” Rather than waiting for someone's approval, you become more natural when you take action yourself. ♉ Taurus Refined and calm. Clothing with beautiful textures, comfortable hairstyles, and an emphasis on the senses. A sensual beauty / a handsome man with mature sensuality “I don't have to rush.” You relax when you keep your own pace and prioritize comfort. ♊ Gemini Light and youthful. Comfortable clothing with playful elements. Hairstyles and accessories can easily be changed and experimented with. A charming, approachable beauty / a fresh, youthful handsome man “It's okay to change.” You can stay natural when you're free to change your style according to your mood and interests. ♋ Cancer Soft and approachable. Warm clothing and an atmosphere that gives others a sense of comfort and safety. A cute, lovable beauty / a gentle, healing-type handsome man “It's okay to feel safe.” You become natural when you're surrounded by things that protect and calm you. ♌ Leo Strong presence and confidence. Hair, clothing, and accessories can all carry a sense of being the star of your own life. A glamorous, star-like beauty / a handsome man with overwhelming presence “It's okay for me to be the main character.” You become natural when you stop shrinking yourself to fit others and confidently express who you are. ♍ Virgo Clean, neat, and refined. Beauty comes from careful grooming and attention to detail rather than excessive decoration. A pure, elegant beauty / an intelligent, classically handsome man “If things are in order, I'm okay.” You feel at ease when you organize what you need and remove what you don't. ♎ Libra Balanced and sophisticated. Clothing, hair, and makeup are coordinated into an aesthetically harmonious whole. A classic beauty / a sophisticated, classic-type handsome man “It's okay to exist beautifully and harmoniously.” You become natural when you maintain balance rather than going to extremes. ♏ Scorpio Simple yet unforgettable. Rather than relying on flashy clothes or revealing too much, you draw people in through your eyes, expressions, and sensuality. An alluring, seductive beauty / a mysterious, sensual handsome man “I don't have to show everything.” You can remain natural when you don't feel the need to expose everything inside you. ♐ Sagittarius Open, free, and light. A relaxed style that suits movement, travel, and the outdoors. A healthy, model-like beauty / a fresh, free-spirited handsome man “I can go wherever I want.” You become natural when you're not trapped by one place or one fixed style. ♑ Capricorn Simple and refined. Mature, understated styles with calm colors and quality clothing. An elegant, mature beauty / a sophisticated, dignified handsome man “I can stand on my own.” You feel stable when you choose what to wear for yourself rather than following others. ♒ Aquarius Individualistic and free. Rather than copying trends, you reinterpret them in your own way. Being a little unusual is perfectly fine. A one-of-a-kind, individualistic beauty / a charismatic, unconventional handsome man “It's okay to be different.” You become natural when you stop feeling that you have to be the same as everyone else. ♓ Pisces Soft and dreamy. Colors, materials, and hairstyles carry subtle, flowing nuances, creating a gentle atmosphere with soft boundaries. A delicate, ethereal beauty / a dreamy, sensual handsome man “I can relax.” You become natural when you don't try to define everything perfectly and allow yourself to follow the atmosphere and your feelings. So, What Do You Think? After reading this, some of you may be thinking, “Oh… that actually sounds like me.” while others may be thinking, “Really? Is that so?” Either way, this is your natural appearance—the appearance that suits you best. It isn't a face you created to earn someone's approval. It isn't an appearance you created to follow a trend. It is the appearance in which you can exist most naturally, the appearance that allows you to breathe most easily. And now that you've come this far, you may gradually be starting to wonder: “Then what was I doing, obsessing over current trends and popular looks?” So, next time, let's take this one step further. What happens if you force yourself to fit into “the perfect appearance that everyone approves of”? What kind of suffering is waiting for you on the other side? That's what we'll explore next. ➤This Is Life When You Ignore Your Ascendant｜The Beauty Trap All Around Us

What Happens When You Ignore Your Ascendant? So, this time, we’re going to look at what happens when you become completely drawn to the idea of being “beautiful” or “handsome,” and shape yourself according to current beauty trends, cosmetic procedures, and so on. What kind of suffering awaits you as a result? That’s what we’re going to examine. The key point this time is: “What happens when you ignore your own stars?” First, There’s Something I Want to Make Clear Let me make this very clear first. I am not saying that cosmetic surgery is bad, nor am I saying that following trends is bad. Following trends, wearing makeup, or undergoing cosmetic treatments— these are all valid ways to make yourself look more beautiful or attractive. The problem is when you make these things the foundation for shaping who you are. Beauty trends and cosmetic techniques are things you should apply and make use of according to your own stars and what your soul desires. They are not supposed to become the foundation upon which you build yourself. If you simply get the order right, these things can actually be very effective shortcuts. So please don't misunderstand what I'm saying. Now, let's see what actually happens. We'll be looking at the same zodiac signs as in the previous article! What Happens When You Ignore Your Ascendant? ASC What kind of suffocating life can result from chasing beauty? What natural strength of yours gets damaged? ♈ Aries You begin hesitating to act for yourself because you are trying to maintain an ideal image of how you want to be seen. You start prioritizing how others evaluate you over actually taking action. Drive, vitality, and momentum. You naturally shine when you simply “try things first,” but by worrying about other people’s eyes, that lively energy begins to disappear. ♉ Taurus You keep chasing trends and beauty techniques, endlessly thinking, “I need to be prettier” or “I need to be more perfect.” Instead of asking whether something feels good to you, you begin prioritizing how others evaluate you. A sense of security, the senses, and your own pace. You naturally have the ability to develop your value slowly and savor life, but rushing yourself into constant change destroys that calmness. ♊ Gemini You decide, “This face, this hairstyle, and this clothing style are my finished form,” and lose the freedom to experiment. You want to change, but become afraid of destroying the beautiful image you have created. Curiosity, lightness, and the freedom to change. You naturally discover yourself by trying different things, but fixing yourself into a “completed version” takes away that sense of play and discovery. ♋ Cancer The more you try to become the kind of beautiful person everyone envies, the more conscious you become of how others see you. Eventually, you can no longer relax even in places where you should feel safe, constantly performing a version of yourself that others will approve of. Approachability, warmth, and a sense of security. You naturally have the ability to make people feel comfortable simply by being around you, but prioritizing an appearance that earns approval causes that softness to disappear. ♌ Leo As you pursue the kind of beauty that “everyone recognizes,” you begin choosing what earns applause from others rather than what you truly want to express. You are supposed to be the main character, yet you end up living as though you are constantly being judged by others. Self-expression, commanding presence, and creativity. You naturally shine when you confidently say, “This is what I like.” But once other people’s approval becomes the standard, your ability to express yourself weakens. ♍ Virgo The more you try to perfect your appearance, the more tiny flaws you begin noticing in your face, skin, hair, body, and so on. The process of “fixing” yourself never seems to end because you always feel that something is still missing. Sensitivity, observation, and the ability to refine things. These qualities are naturally meant to help improve yourself and your surroundings, but they can turn into an ability to endlessly search for flaws in yourself. ♎ Libra By constantly pursuing whatever “everyone considers beautiful,” you gradually lose track of what you actually like. Compliments make you feel secure, while the possibility of no longer receiving approval becomes frightening. Aesthetic sense, harmony, and comfortable relationships with others. You naturally have the ability to create your own sense of beauty, but constantly conforming to society’s definition of beauty gradually weakens your own sensibility. ♏ Scorpio No matter how perfectly you create your appearance, a feeling remains that says, “What if people see the real me?” The stronger you make your outer appearance, the more you feel the need to hide what is inside. Depth, sensuality, and your unique inner world. Your natural appeal comes from an inner richness that cannot easily be copied, but conforming to an obvious standard of beauty can make that one-of-a-kind depth fade away. ♐ Sagittarius You begin restricting your activities, diet, clothing, and other aspects of your life in order to maintain your appearance. Even though you are naturally meant to move freely through the world, protecting your appearance becomes the goal itself. Freedom, a spirit of adventure, and expansiveness. You naturally have the power to broaden your world by thinking, “That looks interesting—let’s go.” But worrying too much about your appearance takes away that freedom. ♑ Capricorn You become so focused on becoming beautiful or handsome “right now” that you forget to take the time to build yourself over the long term. Changing your appearance can even make you feel as though you have changed your entire life. Accumulation, dignity, and the ability to build something for yourself. Your natural appeal becomes stronger with time, but constantly chasing immediate changes in appearance prevents that deeper strength from developing. ♒ Aquarius By pursuing the kind of beauty that “everyone recognizes,” you gradually end up with the same face, hairstyle, and clothing as everyone else. You want to express your individuality, yet erase your differences yourself in order to be accepted. Uniqueness, originality, and freedom. Your natural appeal lies precisely in being different from others, but becoming the same kind of beautiful person as everyone else means cutting away the very individuality that makes you special. ♓ Pisces You continue chasing an ideal image such as, “If I were this beautiful, I would be loved,” or “If I looked like this handsome person, I would be happy.” You suffer from the distance between that ideal and your actual self. No matter how close you get, the ideal in your mind keeps moving further away. Sensitivity, imagination, and the ability to create a world of your own. You naturally have the power to express the world inside you, but chasing someone else’s “ideal beauty” causes you to lose sight of your own inner world. So, What Do You Think? This is what happens when you ignore your Ascendant. It may seem like “just appearance,” but choosing to follow or ignore your ASC can create this much of a difference. So please don't become someone who clings to today's beauty standards, current trends, or cosmetic surgery. Instead, think: “This is how I am meant to be. Now, how can I play with all these tools and find my way there?” Turn cosmetic procedures and trends into tools. Because you are the main character of this world. Next Time: Let’s Use Your ASC in Your Life Now that we've come this far, you may be wondering, “So how am I actually supposed to bring my ASC into my life?” That's what we'll explain next. And actually, I came up with a rather interesting way to do it this time. So please enjoy it all the way to the end. ➤Seeing Is Believing｜How to Create Your Own Look with Your ASC

In this article, we'll explore a scene from 『目覚めた龍は無自覚に笑う。』 In the story, Tsuyoshi is known as: The chosen one A genius Even called the "Next Madara" Yet despite possessing such extraordinary power... he eventually lost it.

Sustaining Neptune Is Harder Than Reaching It Before we continue, I'd like you to revisit this previous article. ➤For Those Ready to Give Up Because Results Take Too Long At the end of that article, I explained an important idea: The real challenge isn't obtaining extraordinary talent—it's maintaining the state that allows it to exist.

It Takes More Than "The Right Effort" No matter how accurate or scientifically proven a method may be, it means nothing if it isn't the right fit for you. So what does "the right way to train" actually look like? How can you keep going without giving up? To help answer those questions, I've already prepared these two articles: ➤The Real Common Trait of Elite Athletes | Why Copying Successful People Won't Make You Successful ➤You Don't Have to Follow Everything Your Teacher Says | Find Your Own Training Method For most people, these two articles are enough to uncover their own unique way of improving. But— Some People Still Don't See Results Even after finding the method that suits them best, some people see results quickly... while others don't. They put in the same amount of effort. They stay consistent for just as long. Yet the difference in results is astonishing. RYUU from『目覚めた龍は無自覚に笑う。』 Yayoi from 『アルカナロット』 They're perfect examples. These are people whose hard work doesn't seem to produce results the way it normally should. This article is for them. The World Calls Them Lazy When people see someone like this, they often say: "You're not trying hard enough." "Are you just slacking off?" "You'll never be able to do it." Those words are thrown around so casually. People judge them by society's standard definition of success and conclude, "You're just incompetent because you can't produce results." But— Seriously, people like this do exist. Not because they lack effort, but because the timing of their results is fundamentally different. If you've ever felt, "I'm working several times harder than everyone else, yet nothing seems to pay off," then I highly recommend reading this article first. ➤The Mission of Those Chosen by the Universe | The Trans-Saturnian Type Quiz Pay special attention to the section on "The Great Sage Who Awakens the Soul."

Some readers may find it offensive. However, if it serves as an opportunity for people to pause and reevaluate these values that are taken for granted, I believe it will have been worth writing.

This article is based on Episode 5-10 of アルカナロット. I'm diving straight into the topic, so if you haven't read it yet, I highly recommend checking it out first. I also recommend reading this previous article: ➤ The Real Common Trait of Elite Athletes | Why Copying Successful People Won't Make You Successful To summarize that article in one sentence: Everyone has their own optimal way to practice and improve. No matter how motivated you are, if your training method doesn't match who you are, eventually, you won't be able to keep going. In other words, it's not that you're incapable of working hard— you may simply be using the wrong approach. And that's a very real possibility. Yet in reality, we're taught ideas like these: Training should come from a master. If you copy successful people, you'll become successful too. You should always follow those who are older or more experienced. If you don't succeed, you either lack talent or didn't work hard enough. These beliefs have become completely normal. Whether it's manga,movies,sports,school,or the workplace, we grow up believing that "Someone else already knows the correct way to train." But the world is built on a different system. ➤When God Equals God | For Those Living in a World That Has Lost Neptune As I explained in that article, no matter how brilliant a genius's method may be, the moment it is taught to someone else, it becomes Saturn's rule. ➤Mercury × Neptune | That Flaw Is Proof of Your Gift In other words, the method that was perfect for them is not necessarily the method that's perfect for you. That doesn't mean their teaching is wrong. On the contrary, they're sharing the very best method they've discovered. However, their method alone cannot develop your Neptune—your soul's own natural way of growing. Your way (Neptune) ≠ A genius's method (Saturn) That's why the system eventually breaks down. This is why, in the end, you have to experiment, learn through experience, and build your own personal system. Otherwise, even the most important element of growth— consistency— becomes difficult to maintain. So this brings us to today's topic: "What is the best training method, practice routine, and daily habit for you?" Throughout this article, I'll use studying as the main example to match the story. However, this idea applies to far more than studying. It works for your job, sports, creative work, household tasks, strength training, and virtually any skill you practice every day. As you read, try applying these ideas to your own life. Note 1 This article is not meant to deny the value of teachers, coaches, or mentors. Every teacher and coach is doing their best to share what they believe is the most effective method. The important part isn't rejecting their advice. It's learning how to adapt it, add your own ideas, and gradually turn it into a training system that truly fits you. That's the purpose of this article. Note 2 There's one more thing. This article is not about finding a guaranteed path to success. Instead, it's about discovering the training method that suits you best. Finding your ideal approach doesn't mean everyone will become a Major League athlete. Why? Because each person has their own destiny, their own role, and their own path to walk. I explain that idea in more detail here: ➤Stop Asking “Why” — Break the Loop That’s Holding You Back That concludes the introduction.
