The Moon is heading into square aspect with Pluto and there is a void (Pluto) in the house (Moon). Vid and Clucky are gone for the weekend, the soldier hit the road today so that means it’s just me and Dora.

It also means this house is completely and utterly void of testosterone when it’s usually so full to the brim and the impact is extreme. I feel like the beach when the tide rolls out. You think it’ll be okay. Intellectually I could tell you all the reasons why this is okay but emotionally it’s very harsh even though I’ve had plenty of warning.

I have a lot of compassion tonight for women who have lost their men for whatever reason. It’s no secret I think women are to blame for the loss of their relationships more often then they care to admit but feeling this tonight… a house with no testosterone, it really seems like a situation to be avoided!

Now I know not all women agree with me. I know there are women who don’t like men that much but some of you do. And that’s why this class.

It was my friend satori who told me some months ago she would like me to write a book about how to get and keep a man. She told me she’d learned a lot from me and I could see it.

The soldier has made what sounds like a very quaint observation in these times. But he feels or he has observed that women are generally happier / happiest when they are in a relationship with a man that they love. He also points out that when they leave their relationships they often fare worse, not better and I have seen this all my life. It’s like a graduation down not up.

Now I know there are exceptions and blah blah but I think you know what mean because I think you’ve seen it too. And there is a song playin’ in my head tonight, it just won’t stop. It does not apply in my situation but it plays anyway which sort of amuses me. Because the core song the soldier associated with me for 3 decades was, “Band of Gold” and it also had nothing to do with us.

But this song comes to mind because the guy singing it has man singing it makes the same mistake again and again with lonely result..

“While my heart keeps beating
I keep on repeating
The same mistakes that I made before
The ones that made love walk out the door
I got a sack full of those
That I’ll keep diggin’ into
A lonesome road with a cold wind blowin’
The path I chose, take it from a fool who knows…”

And I feel like him right now. I feel like love just walked out the door even though it didn’t (Venus Neptune). And I feel bad for anyone missing anyone tonight. Here’s the song:
