Moon Meets Pleiades (The Seven Sisters)

The Pleiades is a famous open star cluster in the constellation Ta**us, and it’s commonly known as the Seven Sisters.

The name comes from Greek mythology, where the seven brightest stars in the cluster were associated with the seven daughters of the Titan Atlas and the sea-nymph Pleione. Their names are:

Maia, Electra, Taygetus, Alcyone, Celaeno, Sterope, and Merope.

In reality, the cluster contains hundreds of stars, but the brightest six or seven are visible to the naked eye under good conditions. That’s why different cultures often call them “seven stars” or “seven sisters”.

This is a genuine capture of a real astronomical alignment, but processed to look more visually striking than what you’d see with the naked eye.

New research suggests that psilocin—the active ingredient in psychedelic mushrooms—could dramatically extend the lifespan of human cells. In laboratory tests, skin and lung cells treated with psilocin lived more than 50% longer than normal, a finding that has sparked fresh interest in the potential of psychedelics beyond mental health.

Psilocin is typically studied for its neurological effects, particularly in easing depression, PTSD, and anxiety. But this study went further, examining its direct influence at the cellular level. To the scientists’ surprise, psilocin not only shielded cells from stress but also slowed the natural aging process, allowing them to survive far beyond their usual limit.

For decades, aging has been viewed as an inevitable decline, with cells gradually losing their capacity to repair and renew. Most medical efforts target diseases of aging rather than aging itself. This discovery challenges that paradigm, hinting that psilocin—or related compounds—might actively modulate the biological mechanisms of aging.

If validated through further research, the implications could be profound. Longer-living skin cells might transform treatments for burns, wounds, and age-related tissue loss. Extended lung cell survival could advance therapies for chronic respiratory disease. On a broader scale, this breakthrough may open the door to interventions that extend healthspan, helping people remain stronger and healthier well into later life.

Still, psilocin is far from being a ready-made solution. Much more testing is required before it could ever be considered safe or practical for human use. Yet, the findings highlight how nature continues to hold unexpected answers to medicine’s biggest challenges.

This study hints at a future where psychedelics may do more than heal the mind—they may also help preserve the body, offering new hope in the quest to slow aging and extend vitality.

Word of the day: Malingering

“As this Interrogation gets underway, a cluster of red flags are often present in instances of Malingering,

Including sharing a sudden onset of especially severe symptoms, describing unlikely combinations of symptoms, like mania and increased sleep, and claiming to have highly specific and rare symptoms. While symptoms of true mental disturbances vary widely by individual, malingerers often follow subtle patterns in the way they describe their symptoms.

For example, if malingerers claim auditory hallucinations, they often describe extremes, like hearing terrifying threats and obscene language.

Individuals experiencing genuine symptoms, on the other hand, experience symptoms in degrees, often reporting that their hallucinations can seem conversational. Visual hallucinations are the most common symptom reported by malingerers, and they typically describe scenes in black and white or with a single pronounced color.

Those with genuine symptoms often describe their experiences as having a full spectrum of color.

Finally, when those with legitimate illnesses describe delusional thinking, they may become defensive when asked about their experiences, while those who are fabricating their experiences may not. With this strange discovery in mind, the detective knows it's time to get Michael's side of the story. I could never imagine how truly gut-wrenching this story would be.”

Look at yourself.

Do you know what you like?

Do you just like things that the people you admire like?

Seriously get to know yourself.

Don't make your decisions based on what other people think of you,

Or what you think they want from you.

Be aware enough to know when you are doing this, and move away from it.

Your actual desires and intentions will always come up to the surface eventually,

So if you are pretending,

Know that you will one way regret it.

We all have to face our true selves someday.

Make a conscious decision to be happy.

Care about others & show them by listening.

Carry around a good attitude around for others,

A simple smile can be the first aid kit someone has been waiting for.

Inspiration is like bathing, it's effective,

But only for a short amount of time.

Reflect on your purpose regularly,

But don't dwell on it.

Be confident.

Act on your ideas,

Not your fears.

Trust your instincts.

Take your dreams seriously.

Make ten year, five year, one year, six month, one month, and one week plans,

But have fun- life is short.
Don't stay in jobs & relationships you don't like.

You don't have to.

Staying in a bad situation or relationship can prevent the proper circumstances to take place for you to meet the right person.

Machelle Hobson’s truly a monster to her adoptive kids and her biological daughter is the one who had said, “enough!” She saved siblings from her severe acts of neglect and abuse, blood or not.

If your child is terrified to eat a small bag of potato chips when even a police officer tells you it’s okay you’re not in trouble for eating right now” and to go ahead and eat while you’re terrified, hiding in a cabinet in the kitchen from your vengeful mom, that just breaks my heart and spills out anger into my chest like some sort of child-protective acid lol

The following morning, the woman in this video surreptitiously gave her two older children a note that said she was in danger and asked them to pass it along to their school bus driver, police said. Her plan worked.

Leaving is not easy. On average, it takes a victim SEVEN Times to leave before staying away for good.

Exiting the relationship is most unsafe time for a victim. As the abuser senses that they’re losing power, they will often act in dangerous ways to regain control over their victim.

We know victim’s frustrations with feeling like the abuse is somehow their fault. If only they’d leave, right?

Wrong. We know better.

In fact, we’re taking a closer look at 50 reasons why it may be near impossible to leave.

To answer the often-asked question “Why don’t you just leave?” we’ve adapted Sarah M. Buel’s “Fifty Obstacles to Leaving, a.k.a., Why Abuse Victims Stay” —

50 different reasons that she has encountered throughout her 20+ years of work in the domestic violence field.

Here’s a video of police responding to the bus drivers call for the domestic abuse indecent reported by the two young boys:

This photo shows a striking scene of traditional Mongolian eagle hunting. A man, clad in thick fur garments, rides a sturdy horse across a rugged landscape. On his gloved arm rests a golden eagle, a powerful bird of prey traditionally trained by Kazakh and Mongolian hunters to catch animals like foxes and wolves. The caption humorously praises the coolness factor of this ancient skill:

It highlights the deep connection between humans, animals, and the harsh environment in Mongolia’s steppes and mountains.

These hunters are known as berkutchi or eagle falconers, and the craft is centuries old, passed down through generations. The image radiates rugged self-reliance, mastery of nature, and cultural pride.

Few things embody raw skill and survival like this. What you’re looking at is a Mongolian eagle hunter – part of a centuries-old tradition practiced by Kazakh nomads of western Mongolia. These hunters, known as berkutchi, train golden eagles to hunt foxes, hares, and even wolves in the brutal winters of the Altai Mountains. The furs you see? They’re often from the very hunts made possible by the bird perched on his arm.

This isn’t sport – it’s heritage. Passed from father to son (and increasingly daughters, too), the bond between hunter, horse, and eagle is almost symbiotic. In some cases, the birds are returned to the wild after years of partnership. It’s a craft that requires patience, respect for nature, and an understanding of predators and prey that most of us will never know.

Modern life might give us convenience, but traditions like this remind us what skill, grit, and connection to the land really look like.

Cool? Definitely. But also a powerful glimpse into a way of life few get to witness.
