   A reality check - I am virgo

   A reality check, but I’m much more careful about who I give the check to now, too many times people asked and then didn’t really want to know and got mad at me.

   I think I relate to the ‘notorious to track’ trait, Elsa, being a very strong Neptune person. So yeah, I can be your fairy! But I have a Capricorn Moon, and it keeps me able to give someone else a reality check. Giving myself a reality check is 1000% harder. Isn’t that just life somedays though, isn’t it.

   By the way, has anyone tried eating bacon and eggs with their bare hands? I am doing that right now and it is highly enjoyable!! (if you eat meat, that is).

   I’m definitely not a dispenser of fairy dust, and nobody would think of coming to me for that.

   Reality check, more like it. But I seldom provide those anymore, because most people don’t *really* want to hear my opinion.

   There are only a very few people who I know sincerely-really-truly WANT to hear what I have to say, and will actually give it SERIOUS consideration (whether they end up agreeing with it or not). To those people, I give my full and very best. The rest, I’ve learned to ’save my breath’.

   October27 - Oh God, that’s funny.:-)

   I confess to having eaten a fried egg with my bare hands recently, but I think this is (possibly) early senility.

   eating with your bare hands is fun…

   I know that my closest friends come to me, knowing that I’m going to lay down the law, though usually with quite a bit of sugar, and I’m the only Pisces in the lot of us.

   But I am also picky about who I am brutally honest with, simply because I’m tired of 1) people asking for advice and then not taking it (granted, it’s their perogative to not do it, but dammit, why even ask me?!) and 2) people who really cannot see any view point but their own, and act so surprised when they see that their actions adversely affect others.

    If I ask, I want a reality check, but with love.

    I rarely ask though.

    I’m not usually looking for any type of opinion. Though trÆ’

    Well, if you just look at my handle :)
    Of course I dispense fairy dust, but it’s because it’s what I honestly believe! Scorp. with picky Virgo rising…is it the Pisces moon? No idea. Anyway, I can always see the truth, thanks to what’s obvious (Virgo) and hidden (Scorp) and everyone asks me for advice..but as far as what can be…the sky is always the limit!! Even if it’s just an attitude change and not changing the substance of the thing. People always come to me for truth and possibilities, and for magic, and there is nothing I like more than showing them it is right under their noses. Things are always popping up, if you pay attention, all kinds of little things to make you happy, or to guide you on the right track. As saccharine as all this sounds, I’m very sincere about this. I don’t think reality and fairy dust are mutually exclusive.

    People seek me out for reality checks but that’s not diametrically opposed to fairy dust. *How* something is said is as important as *what* is being said. I want to help a person not hurt him and honesty is much like a double edged sword it can cut through illusions or it can lop off an arm. I can be brutal, very delicate, or somewhere inbetween depending on the person I’m counseling.

    And btw “But sometimes I write something really stupid. I just miss the boat somehow, or I write something that is stunningly inappropriate. Or sometimes I post something no one understands or can relate to at all!”

    You sound like a Libra.

    I agree..fairy dust is a part of my reality at least and without it i think i would die. Sprinkling fairy dust on reality makes it seem better even if the ‘real’ is pretty dour. I’m taurus, pisces rising, moon in virgo, heavily aspected neptune (ruler)opp mercury (moon ruler) so finding the balance between reality & fantasy is a lifes work and i truly need both. When life is too real i feel depressed and when too fantastic, overwhelmed so i look for the beauty in ‘ugliness’ and vice versa because most things have both. And this i think gives the whole picture. Virgo likes order but sometimes its just not possible so it must learn from pisces to surrender to the turbulant sea of life. And pisces likes to escape, again not always possible or safe so must seek some kind of boundary from which to live it’s ideals. It’s good to fly but make sure your landing doesn’t break you.
    I freely give my opinion to those who ask and if they dont take it thats their reality. It used to bother me esp if a friend kept repeating the same destructive pattern and i could see it was hurting her but sometimes we need to go thru the mire to appreciate the lesson learned and for some that can take a loooonng while. Same if i ask for someone else’s, i’ll listen and it’ll go in but if i’m in lalaland i wont often truly see it til i get a reality bite and wake up.

    I’m that friend who will kick your ass with the cold hard brutal truth …. and then go for ice cream with you to make it better. Reality check, definitely.

    It’s funny having Pisces traits in one’s chart mixed with other influences (as far as this topic is concerned).

    With the Pisces moon, mars and south node, my deepest and most pressing motivation is to provide some sort of compassion, empathy or overall perspective, but with my Aries sun, Mercury and Sag rising, I want to be blunt and truth-telling, so sometimes these things clash, but other times they work together. It ain’t perfect, I guess. Sometimes one see-saws to one extreme and I make up for it with the other, but generally people say my presence is calming or healing, which I find funny because I feel anything but that.

    But my motivation…well I always try really hard to enter things from a truly compassionate perspective, even if I actually fuck it up by doing or saying the wrong thing, or most frequently by worrying too much and overcompensating.

    I’m not sure this is fairy dust so much as it is huge chunks of bitter-sweetness.

    In any case I feel like I wear my heart on my sleeve (whatever it’s feeling)

    The first guy that broke my heart was a VIRGO. My older friend he’s 31 he’s a pisces married to a virgo 2 kids… He is never home.. Takes the car. Won’t pick up the kids and pretends to work. It’s crazy becauses he knows exactly that he’s doing wrong, he doesn’t do nothing but sit there when he could pick up the wife at work right down the street. He does this ever so once in a while for a long long long “vacation” literally not cheating nothing. Just sitting there. It’s funny because he reminds me of myself… in a way…. and many pisces….I wish I could explain it.
