    Yay :D
    I loved this!

    I feel you’re so “liquid” in this video, softer than usual, but most likely with a greater depth than I am imagining.

    I remember that show as well. I think Maya said “slowly pecked to death by ducks”.

    This is the underpinning of my entire chart. Venus in the 12th, square Moon in Pisces and quincunx Neptune. The Universe wants me to get this lesson through my head once and for all… An excellent book for this is Melody Beattie’s Codependent No More. I think you’ve designated it as a Libra book but I’ve read it several times and for me it really resonates with the entire Virgo/Pisces axis because codependents have such leaky boundaries and are so willing to do everything for others. YMMV, but for someone like me, it’s helped TREMENDOUSLY. Also, CODA the AA equivalent for codependents.

    I love this advice, thanks for that Elsa. I needed to hear this advice.

    I need this too. You have communicated this before, and it’s powerful stuff. Thank you.

    Yes, yes, and yes! I’ve got Saturn trine Neptune (by way of a conjunction) and I had to learn this, too. I used to be very hard for me to accept that my emotions were “right” when others would tell me I should be feeling something different. Not that it doesn’t still happen, but thank cheeze for boundaries!

    Wow that was great! We have been having problems with our computer for a couple of weeks and I have not been able to watch your videos. I think that I was begginning to have withdrawal symptoms! Anyway, I watched this video and loved it! You know it is not that hard to get rid of leg pecking ducks once you know that they are there and figure out what they are up to. Thanks very much Elsa. I hope that you and the soldier have another fantastic day together!

    Just this week a few people I thought I had tossed have turned up again and started pecking. Time to kick some more duck ass I guess. The hard thing is that I just want them to leave me alone….I am not bothering them and quite frankly don’t care about them, but they seem hellbent on making me think I’m lousy at what I know I do really, really well. Aren’t there other people for them to peck? Or better yet…why can’t they stop pecking all together? Saturn/Neptune, Venus/Neptune

    I’m definitely susceptible and struggle with it. I’m doing better these days. I’ve got a T-Square involving Saturn, Neptune and Venus.

  10. kashmiri says on 9/8/08 at 1:30 pm:

    Yes, this happens to me, and yes I’ve had to do it. Part of the reason why it is so painful, for me, is that it feels so hard…until it’s so easy. There’s no going back. I used to make the mistake of not grieving my losses, but I’m getting better. I hate hurting people. Even if they are a stupid duck pecking at me. Then again it’s why people take advantage so I’ve got to get with it.
