Bizarre Projection And Various Internet Geniuses Out There
Astrology in real life
Someone on the death notice piece characterized me as a “celebrity” which… well if people know you and know of your life, if you ate a point of discussion for people, then I guess there is some truth to that but the things people know about are… bizarre.
For example once I came across a long diatribe, study of my (jacked up) psychology written by an Internet Genius. They had me pegged with a host of diagnoses all based on my daughter’s name. Yep, they’d judged my daughter’s name to be, “ugly” and since I gave it to her this indicated all kinds of things, like my fierce, sick jealousy of her for example.
Apparently it did not occur to this person that her father may have named her. It also did not occur to them the name I use for daughter is not her real name but a screen name and if they couldn’t figure that out, figuring out she picked the name herself would have to be next to impossible.
The fact is my daughter’s screen name, Mostacciolia was derived (by her) from her favorite pasta, mostaccioli. How this makes me a bad mother, I don’t know but there are people out there who do.
This is what happens when you have a packed 8th house. It is also part of the reason you have so much insight into other people. It’s because whatever they want to be rid of they dump on you.
I strongly suspect the gal who wrote all about of my dark feelings hates her daughter but in whatever case this is none of my business is it?

To me this story warns, “best get your foundation right before you build your house of cards, dumb ass.”
See, I think that is where your Libra tendencies are helpful. Both sides are often sought out first before judgement passed.
Perhaps this person was Scorpionic as well? Seeing things in black and white with no shades of gray possible.
It took some Gemini relationships in my life to help me notice the grays in life.
Great story - but I’m sure the incident was not pleasant to process.
Dreams, I have no idea who or what you are talking about. This may be my failing but I am telling you, I don’t relate at all. I think the person who wrote that is an idiot - period. There are no critical thinking skills and then they publish what they think is a showcase of their critical thinking skills.
It was not unpleasant to process, I was laughing my ass off at the gal.
it’s been my experience quite consistently that people going to great lengths to tell me who i am always end up conveying a LOT more info on who they are than anything else…
I love the name:) It reminds me of a flower ! Dark purple with yellow flower
What I was trying to say - is that if you, Elsa, were to come across a name that was out of the ordinary to you, that you would use your Libra tendencies towards balance to think about all/some of the possible ways a name could be given to someone.
Some of us are just stupid and jump to all kinds of black/white reasons why a thing is there/what it’s possible meanings are and then try to use those perceived critical thinking skills to present our case.
You are most likely correct in your assumptions that this person hated their own daughter.
As humans we tend to label things all the time, for myself - it seems to be a flaw. When I do, it usually butt-bites me. 9 out of 10 times I’ll get it wrong.
I think Mosta is a beautiful name as well. And your descriptions of your lovely daughter that I’ve read are just that - full of love and respect for her.
People dont’ think. I wonder if they think your son’s name is actually Vidroid. *eyeroll*
Some folks like to project; they think they know and there’s nothing that will sway them from that - everything you say in defense makes you look worse in their perception.
When it’s me, I keep my mouth shut and just let them look dumb. Confirm nor deny - it takes two to argue.
“I wonder if they think your son’s name is actually Vidroid. *eyeroll* ”
Yes they do. I have been asked several times why I gave him that name. 
Actually my daughter is a Gemini and came up with all sorts of names. For example, meet “Silba” and “Gray”…

never underestimate the power of stupid. or lazy.
Beautiful children!
well they are both creative as hell and if you don’t keep up with them, they will leave you in the dust as has happened to me many times.
Think you can figure it out until you’re blue. Fact is you are dealing with an anomaly that will never go in any hole or category you (or I) can conceive of.
That this fact beats the shit out of the know-it-all is a source of amusement for the people who can accept the fact.
I love the not-pigeon-holeable in people. It keeps me interested and happy to be around them - keeps us alive trying to keep up.
You can tell they are well loved children as well - it oozes out of them. Elsa, one of the things I appreciated about your blog posts about your kiddos is your love & RESPECT of them as WHOLE beings - the adult thoughts, the adventurer, the vulnerable, the wise, the silly, etc. It was something my older sister did with her children and something I attempted to emulate with my own children when they came along. These tiny ones are PEOPLE when they arrived. Perhaps a little spongey, needing a map & compass some times, but deserving of adult consideration, conversation & acceptance.
Very bizarre! I don’t understand pre-meditated stuff like that. What kinda person takes the time to do that?
I’m not hooked up enough to know if you are a celebrity or infamous in the astrology world. I suspect you will be though, and soon, if it all keeps growing and growing.
Well I sure as hell aren’t famous in my mind. I live in a small house in the suburbs, I try to take care of my family, myself and my clients and that is about it.
I write for release and because the universe supports it. If ever the universe does not support, I will not write obviously.
I am very much into co-operating (even if the other is God, real or imagined). Er… I have Libra.
But how people see me and how they tag me? That is their affair.
I don’t see Elsa as a celebrity, I see her as an anchor and a friend.
I agree with maureen! I wouldnt say celebrity! I see Elsa more like an international teacher :))

Elsa, even if it were her birth name, I can see that the name Mosta/ Mostacciolia might be seen as a culturally derived name as well.
