A Lesser Known Messenger of the Gods

Augustus 14, 2025

Whenever it comes to communication and being a messenger of the gods, Mercury has the floor, but sometimes, some lesser or well known gods or goddesses can have something of value to add.

Iris was a Greek Goddess and the personification of the rainbow. She was also a servant to the Olympians and a messenger of the gods. The rainbow is actually her means of transportation, and she uses it to travel back and forth between our reality and the realm of the gods.

Currently, we can find Iris chilling on the 24th degree of Cancer in the Seventh House, which forms a square to the Midheaven on the 20th degree of Libra.

With the Midheaven set in Libra, we can see themes of love, harmony, and possibly justice manifesting in the Tenth House.

What does this look like?

Libra, don’t forget, is the ruler of the Seventh House, which is where Iris is actually located right now, but when Libra is involved we know the other plays an important role in whatever is going on.

The square is a block or an obstacle that can be a real pain in the ass-tronaut, but at the end of the day, it is through the most difficult times that we stand to gain the most.

With consideration to Iris and the Midheaven, the aspect that connects them, and their signs and houses, the situation could look something like this:

You and your coworker decided to get together before work.  There's an important client coming to the office today, and your coworker is supposed to help get you up-to-speed with important information so you're not lost during the meeting.  

You show up early at the local coffee shop, but your coworker doesn't. He texts you an hour after he was supposed to meet you and tells you he overslept and won't be meeting you. Wow. With Iris in Cancer, you could be wondering where your coworker's loyalty lies, and you're also upset because you got up two hours earlier than usual for no reason. That's a terrible way to begin the workday, and you might need to spend the next two hours trying to calm yourself down.

In general, with this alignment, I wouldn’t be surprised if your wife or husband has an issue with the work you’re doing. Maybe they don’t like that you’re never home and work entirely too much, or maybe, they feel like you’re overqualified for the work you do and deserve better.

The blessings that are usually shared between the Tenth House of Public Image and Career and the Seventh House of Relationships are just not there right now.

Sometimes, revelations of truth can hurt relationships. Libra wants justice and justice requires that the truth sees the light of day. The best men and the best women for the job are those who are the most qualified. This is obvious, right?

Well, of course it is, but things get complicated when the qualified one gets the promotion over the one who’s popular and loved by everyone. All of a sudden, the person who’s qualified for the promotion finds himself in a tense situation.

He quickly discovers that his coworkers could care less about his qualifications. They wanted the funny person, the cool person, and the younger person to get the promotion. Stuff like this happens all the time, and relationships (Seventh House) can suffer or come to an end because of it.

Did you know that Cancer rules the breasts? So, how about this situation. You’re a young female in your 20’s. You have a beautiful face with an amazing pair of boobies. In secret, and without anyone knowing, you decided to create a new account on one of these social media websites so you could show your breasts to the world. For whatever reason, your thirst for validation was unquenchable.

The Tenth House rules public image, and your social media account started blowing up! What started as something you decided to do during your summer break out of pure boredom, has brought unimaginable fame and recognition.

Justice (Libra). One of your students (the other) decided to create an account, and she saw your pictures. She tells everyone, and the principal finds out eventually. Shit, you might decide to quit your teaching job and live the rockstar lifestyle, but these are the types of things that can happen.

Right now, relationships require work, but some of them might turn out to be worth it in the end. You might meet someone who can help you gain the honors and the respect you really deserve. Hang in there, and don’t get discouraged. The square can bring difficulties.

The biggest point to take away from this is that not everyone is going to open up their world and welcome you in with open arms within the first few days of meeting you. Especially with Cancer in the Seventh House. People are going to want to feel you out. They want to see where your head is at, how you think, and what you’re really like. Can they trust you?

On the flip side, take your time when meeting new people now. Not everyone is worthy of your time and your energy.

Watch out for the tattle tails, the man or woman who comes on to you as they’re hiding the fact that they’re married, and the people who promise you the world, but don’t have a pot to pee in.

If you find something of beauty, focus your attention on it. Nurture it, grow it, love it, and protect it. Relationships are not the most important thing right now, and you might find that some of them are causing more harm than good. The people who support what you’re doing and the people who respect you are the ones who truly matter now.

Brainwashed Into Ignorance

Have you ever seen a rainbow in the sky? How about a double rainbow? I’ve seen some that were full circles around the sun, and I’ve seen single and double arcs. Some have been half of an arc, some were faded, and some were bold in color displaying beautiful colors of the light spectrum.

The rainbow is a weather phenomenon, but some cultures saw them as omens. Good or bad, some cultures perceived rainbows to be messages from the Gods, and therefore, important symbolic meaning was attached to them.

All of a sudden, the rainbow was hijacked. It was taken and used by groups of people who would rather identify themselves by who they’re sexually attracted to.

The rainbow, a beautiful wonder displayed in our skies, has not only been taken, but redefined as well.

New symbolic meaning has been nailed, hot glued, and welded to the rainbow, and popular culture has reinforced and drilled the image with it’s new meaning into the skulls of the population. People are now brainwashed; when we see a rainbow, immediately, we think of sexual preference.

I own a pair of rainbow socks, and wear them with shorts. A woman I’m friends with has several young children, and one of them said to her, “I didn’t know Frank was gay.”

Wow! Okay, so, we have a young child who has been brainwashed into associating rainbows with being gay. We can thank mainstream popular culture for that. Thank you mainstream popular culture for brainwashing us!

The kid is innocent. He didn’t do anything wrong. Out of immaturity, he just assumed I was gay because I was wearing rainbow socks. It’s not his fault, he doesn’t know any better.

Now, his mother had to explain to him the real true meaning of rainbows. She also had to explain assumptions and the complications they create, and the fact that not everyone who wears a rainbow is gay.

Boy oh boy, is that kid confused!

Thanks again mainstream popular culture!

I wasn’t bothered by the kid’s assumption, but some people would’ve been. Some people would’ve gotten in his face and said, “What? I’m not fu**ing gay!”

And you know what, those people wouldn’t be wrong. Hijacking the rainbow, and solidifying its association to being gay, has created division within our nation. When you create division, you divide. Right?

So now, people are being pushed and forced into a situation where they feel the need to defend themselves, and make it known who they’re sexually attracted to. It’s not right. I’d like to know how many people in general avoid anything and everything associated with rainbows just because they’d rather not deal with people’s assumptions or feel forced into announcing who they prefer to lay in bed with.

That’s like someone taking the color blue and cementing it as symbol representing their attraction to animals.

“This blue flag is ours, it means we have sex with animals! And we want the world to know we have sex with animals. And that’s not enough! We want the world to accept us as people who have sex with animals. And we shall have rallies and marches to let the world know we have sex with animals and our flag is blue!”

Here’s comes some guy with a blue shirt on. Mom, I didn’t know that guy fucked animals. He doesn’t son, he just likes wearing the color blue.

Do you see what you created here?

This is a little off topic, but kind of related. I just saw a post of Facebook. Putting it correctly and unbiased, it was about a young talented girl who ran track and was being recognized for her speed.

The post was submitted by All Black News dot com, and when All Black News submits posts, they’re all about recognizing people for the color of their skin first, and their actual achievements second.

And then their email address is something like support diversity @ whatever. Diversity? There is no diversity in All Black News, I mean seriously, IT’S ALL BLACK NEWS. LMAO.

I think black Americans and people like MLK fought so hard for black Americans to have rights, be free, and put an end to segregation. Well, if you’re ending segregation and shooting for integration, then All Black News is total contradiction.

I mean, think of all the ways we can be divided. Race, religion, sex, age, sexual preference, country of origin, people with disabilities, political parties, Generation X, Y and Z, etc.

Do we really need to go along with it?
