Jupiter is currently sextile Uranus and the courtroom is Jupiter-ruled. Uranus is surprised, detached and eccentric. I have natal Jupiter in aspect to Uranus so this energy is very familiar to me…

“So what did he say?” the soldier asked regarding the judge.

“He said, I couldn’t help to see you crying back there, and I wasn’t crying a lot. It was just a few tears. But that’s all he said. I saw you crying so..? So I told him about you - I said there was a cancer scare.”

“Oh yeah?”

“Yeah. What else am I going to say? It’s court and the judge asks a direct question. He wanted to know.”

“Well, what else did he say?”

“Well first he expressed is sympathy and concern. He was appropriate. It was a good reaction, authentic I think. He is a nice man, I like the guy. But then he asked another question so I answered it as well.”

“What question?”

I recalled the question for him. “Yeah he asked me that. You’ve got to admit it’s a strange question to come from the bench. Why is he asking me that? But I answered this as well. I told him how about the system being manipulated… about the fact he was being manipulated.”

“What did he say?” he said, probably with an eyebrow on it’s way up.

“He laughed. They all laughed. They whole court laughed, I don’t know why.”

“You’re funny, P. They laugh because you’re funny.”

“Whatever. I didn’t think I was funny. I told them unfortunately I was serious and then they were serious. He said the case was fascinating and I said, I know. That’s what I am afraid of. It’s too fascinating this whole thing. It is terrifically fascinating and all.”

“How did he react to that?”

“How do you think? He was fascinated. He was and he is. I am not his usual customer, that’s the thing. He is not used to seeing someone like me in there and I am sure as hell not used to seeing someone like him. So anyway, this is how it went. It went well I think.”
