“Feeling lucky, punk?”

“Well, yes. Yes, I am,” says Elsa P.

I have a high tolerance for risk and an uncanny ability to absorb and recover from losses, even when they are staggering. I chock this up to the trines from Jupiter in my chart.

Airplane follies? Yeah. Okay, I’ll tell you what happened.

I was seated next to this business guy. You know. A suit.

Now at the time I thought his clothing indicated he was important but you know that didn’t stop me. I turned to him and started babbling. I told him it was my first time on a plane and stuff. I don’t think he was sure about this at first but believe me I convinced him eventually.

Here is a very embarrassing but hopefully entertaining romp. It is meant as a diversion because I think people could use one. I wrote this in about 2002, because I am a fool. It was posted on this blog in 2006. Here you go:

Here is a Jupiter / Sagittarius / Travel story for pure amusement. It’s true of course. Jupiter rules the truth! Jupiter rules storytelling for that matter. And travel, planes, what you believe, bluntness etc. all of which are prominent in this bit, which is clipped from the middle of a much longer story…

“I am unable to motivate myself to do things I am not motivated to do.  And my motivation, I admit, comes from things that are illogical.  Er… my motivation is derived from ethereal things. I just wake up one day or more precisely something happens or a series of things happen that make me feel I am supposed to do something and when that happens I respond. I always respond even though I don’t understand it.”

This is from early 2007. In between the AMF and getting together with the soldier, I had a couple “dates” with a man I called, “Coffee Date”. They were not really dates because when he asked me to go out with him I told him that I was fresh from a break-up and didn’t think I could manage.

Jupiter is at 27 Aquarius (conjunct Chiron and Neptune) fixing to turn retrograde in 2 days. I wrote about a portion of my experience in Quirky Story but there has been another manifestation.

Since so many people are struggling, I thought it might be a good idea to name some problems you don’t have! ::smiles::

I’ll go first: I don’t worry about being perfect.

Regarding my blog and various efforts I have made in the past that have seemingly come to no end, this is never the case. I don’t think experience is ever wasted and the more you have the better off you are especially if you take the pains to process it. I have had many hideous experiences in my life but find I routinely draw on whatever it is I learned at the time.

For example, I have been in court A LOT especially for someone who has no reason to be in court! I have a significant number of clients who consult with me because they are going to court or to some kind of mediation. This is strange since I do not advertise for this kind of work but the people contact me anyway and sure enough, I have the cards they need.

Loonsounds writes on Giving, regarding her mother

“…every penny she has saved for her whole life and now her portfolio is down 60 percent and it really actually does look like she could run out of money. So, in addition I have now learned that being cheap is no guarantee of financial security in late life anyway (not that it would have changed me)…”

Very good point. In fact, greed has a pretty sorry reputation actually.

There is conversation in the comments on the Jupiter blog around the fact a gal’s husband has had Jupiter conjunct his Sun in Aquarius but is having no luck. The idea that money or things are going to fall from the sky when Jupiter transits your whatever is a common misconception. What you can count on during a Jupiter transit is an opportunity to expand.

This means if Jupiter transits your first house you will have an opportunity to expand your waist. More is not always better. But aside but that, good things usually do come along during Jupiter transits but people don’t necessarily know a good thing when they see it.
