Mercury in Aries vs Mercury in Libra (With Mars Involved): Living With Genius - It Ain’t Easy!
Astrology in real life
The other day the soldier and I were debating something - Politics.
“I’m speaking from a position of knowing,” he said.
“And Iiiiiiiiii am as always, as per my usual, I am speaking from a position of not knowing. My position is based on my ignorance and stupidity,” I said smugly with my head cocked.
He stared with an eyebrow raised and I looked at him blankly.
The next day more debate.
“How do you do it?” I asked. “How do you discuss things like this with one who knows so little?” I challenged.

Mercury in Aries vs Mercury in Libra (With Mars Involved): “You’re Going To Win”
Astrology in real life
The soldier and I have an ongoing dialogue about who slides the blankets, the sheets and ultimately the mattress itself off the bed. He says I roll around all night. I say I’ve never had a this kind of problem until I started sleeping with a rhinoceros. And then we go back and forth, you do it, no you do it, P, you’re the one who does it…

Mercury in Aries vs Mercury in Libra (With Mars Involved): Honorary
Astrology in real life
“I didn’t marry you because you were ornery and contrary,” the soldier explained.
“Contrary? You mean you wanted to run my life?”
“No, I mean you were ornery. I was nice.”
“I was honorary?”
“Orney.”
“Honorary?”
“P, you’re the most ornery and contrary person there is.”
It strikes me if you have Mercury in Aries, you’re single minded and anyone with Mercury in Libra who has no choice but to see both sides is going to see contrary.
As for the ornery, that must be Mars, eh? As if he can talk.

Mercury in Aries vs Mercury in Libra (With Mars Involved): Gaggle Of Women
Astrology in real life
“No, I am going to have to find you someplace in the rear,” the soldier said. He was talking about the possibility of our having to fight a war. “You won’t be able to handle it in the front. I’ve come to the conclusion.”
“Yeah? I thought you thought I could fight. I could handle fighting…”

Mercury in Aries vs Mercury in Libra With Mars Involved: Floogen-Hawfin
Astrology in real life
“What happened to the fight /truck driving story?” Vidroid asked last night trying to coax another story out of us at bed time. I had offered him one like that but the soldier wound up telling a made up story about an old lady with a cane looking for love since she won a free cruise.

Mercury in Aries vs Mercury in Libra (With Mars Involved): “Nuke Something”
Astrology in real life
“P, I’m not kidding, I want you to tell me what you want to eat after surgery. I know it’s going to be hell and I want to know exactly what to get for you. I think it should be bland. I think you may be queasy but I know you hate bland food. I’m not sure you’d eat bland food even on your death bed.”
“I don’t care what I eat. I wouldn’t worry about it, we can just nuke something.”
“No, hell no. We are not nuking something on the day you have surgery. I am getting you some food but I want to know ahead of time what you want.”

Mercury in Aries vs Mercury in Libra (With Mars Involved): Mean As A Bear
Astrology in real life
“I want to know what you want to eat after surgery and I want to know ahead of time because you’re going to be mean as a bear.”
“What? Why do you say that?”
“P, anesthesia makes people mean and you?” He ducked.
“Oh for Godsakes. I doubt that. Why would I be mean? I am not upset about this surgery. I think I am going in to become the Bionic Woman. I’m to be reinforced! I think you are overstating this mean thing.”
“Fine. But I am still wearing my flap jack and my armored underwear.”
“Oh brother.”

Mercury in Aries vs Mercury in Libra (With Mars Involved): And A Partridge In A Pear Tree!
Astrology in real life
We were watching a movie and the people on screen started singing, “Five golden rings..!” The soldier and I joined in. “Four calling birds, three french hens, two turtles doves…”
“Hey,” I said. ‘We can go caroling again!” I said with a hapless grin. The soldier and I went Christmas caroling when we were kids and got in a big fight all because I thought I was fat that night. I really went berserk and in front of his boss no less. I was from the desert (ie a wild animal) and had no concept or care of decorum of any kind… I’m not kidding about this.
“No,” he said with his eyes wide. “No caroling for us, ever again. I never went caroling since that night we went caroling and I swear I never will.”
I stared.
“Yeah, that’s why I don’t go to any of those… those therapists. They say, hey. Do you ever have any flashbacks from any action you’ve been in? And I say, yeah. P, back in ‘79. We went caroling and that was the worst action I’ve ever been in in my life…”

Disrupting Nature and Exploiting The Natural Logarithm Redux
Commenting on the comments
Dan writes on The Natural Logarithm…
“Halting the progression or the escalation of a situation that has volatile potential from developing may work well. But, I would think that an evaluation of what mechanism(s) starts the process to begin with is truly the way to overcome. Easier said than done, but something to think about.”
Dan, something great to think about, thank you! I am not sure if you were specifically referring to the “fight” dynamic between the soldier and I but if you are, this “may” be a case where there is no mechanism that starts the thing. I am not sure but I think it’s possible some things that just occur in nature akin to a volcano that erupts or lighting that strikes when and were it damn pleases.

Mercury in Aries vs Mercury in Libra (With Mars Involved): The Presidential Debate
Astrology in real life
The soldier was yelling, he’s got that crew cut now you know and I was taken aback.
“Oh my God,” I said. “You are a butchy, butchy man. How did I end up with someone so butchy?”
He made a butchy noise and gesture and I gasped.
“P! What do you mean what are you doing with a man like me? I am an extreme man, you are an extreme woman. We’re attracted like moths to a flame.”
I gasped again but he’s right and that right there is the opposition. It is also evidence of my Uranus in the 7th - I am shocked at my partner. He has Venus in aspect to Uranus so I imagine it goes both ways.
Do you ever look at your lover and wonder what the hell?
