SunSigns and KeyWords



I created this video after making a series of 12 Wordles--one for each sign of the zodiac-- using keywords for them and the Wordle app. I added an icon identifying the SunSign for each Wordle  and selected a color for the background that is tied to the color associated with that SunSign.


This is pretty basic, though. I just found a video tutorial on using Wordle in a more powerful way, and when I have time, I am going to tweak these Wordles. There's a lot more one could do.

Zap Zone Wordle




I love to read the astrology blog by Mystic Medusa. I have my doubts about astrology sometimes (the words "Confirmation Bias" "Confirmation Bias" "Confirmation Bias" float before my eyes) but even when I am most skeptical, I continue reading Mystic for her irreverent, amusing insights and the interesting community that has come together in the comments on her site.

This is a Wordle I made using the language from three of her posts about the Zap Zone (for those who aren't reading Mystic, the Zap Zone is a particular period of time in which the planets transiting the Cardinal signs square each other.) The Wordle turned out better than I expected-- and the best part is: I sent it to Mystic and she liked it too!
