Today I was talking to the soldier as he sent a short message over the satellite. He read it back to me and I laughed.

“I bet he likes working with you,” I said.

“Yeah, right.”

“No, he’s going to like that message and laugh when he gets it. Not many can be that funny in 3 words…”

Later I was thinking about it and people like to work with me too. People in the world may or may not like me but if you work with me it is almost guaranteed you’ll enjoy it and I wonder if this is due a well-aspected Saturn. What do you think?

Do your co-workers enjoy you? How is Saturn aspected in your chart?

The soldier called within 5 minutes to ask me if I wanted to come out and wait in the truck wash line as it can take hours to get your truck washed. He was trying to peace-make which I appreciated but I saw no sense going out there when I could not return the gesture. It seemed a better idea I maintain the space because I was working on a deep level that was productive for me.

I was thinking about what I had written on my blog about going down in a well. I was thinking how good I am at this. I have spent my whole like in a well and I was thinking I ought to go on my blog and tell people how this is best done because I do know.

My son has begun to cartoon his life. He draws what he sees the way he sees it and I am freakishly happy because I know firsthand how telling stories invokes Jupiter which acts as anecdote to the Saturn blues.

My son really has had a terrifically difficult life starting from the time he was 4 days old and seeing him with this outlet… well I just know he will blossom and be okay.

A few weeks ago he was threatening to draw his Mom burping and I think he has caught on to the power of all this. Got a problem with your mother? Draw her burping and watch her Libra flip out! There. All better.

This started when he was 4 years old. My daughter had been picking on him not stop as she was prone to do and apparently he had just had enough. Never in his life had he retaliated but he was PISSED and he grabbed a piece of paper and drew a picture of a tic.

“Remember our gun, P? This is the gun you and I bought together when we were kids, do you remember?”

“Yeah sort of,” I said staring at the gun. I don’t remember like you do, I haven’t seen that in a long time.”

“We got it right there in the neighborhood one day for no reason… we had no reason at all. Just decided to go look at guns one day, we weren’t thinking anything. And we got in there and they showed us this one. Smith and Wesson. Gun like this cost $3-400 but we only paid, $189, remember? Because it has a flaw. There is some little flaw on the handle here somewhere,” he said, turning the gun over in his hands to find it.

The Truth About Addiction And Recovery

kashmiri writes regarding Saturn

“Basically a person needs to accept there is no ‘get out of jail free card’ and things improve. Exponentially.”

kashmiri, I understand what you are saying and know you would elaborate but I have to jump on and argue this. I have been handed many, many “get out of jail” free cards in life. I have stood on the ground and looked up at the sky time and time again and asked God exactly this:

“You’ve got to be kidding me? You mean I am going to get away with this?”

And apparently God approves because I do get away with the thing.

I have had it all, from judges who rule for me even though I am 100% wrong and say so in open court to enjoying spontaneous unexplainable healing after devastating injury. These things happen to me, I swear they do and as far as I am concerned it may very well be Saturn giving me the pass. What is a judge if not Saturn? It is as if the authority looks down on me and says you know what, Elsa? You don’t suck after all and this one is on me.

For the record, I also hand these cards out out all the time. Take my son. He is such a good kid. You think if he makes one mistake I am going to come down on him? I’m not. I am going to get him out of his trouble in the the most painless (for him) way possible and then shrug.

I think you can get beaten all your life and then run into someone who is just not going to be party to it under any circumstances and I think the people who spare you are the Capricorns I mentioned here -> Capricorn, Saturn and Compassion

Nice segue, huh?

If you do get them, to what do you attribute this too? 

The soldier tells me not to worry all the time but I think he worries at least as much as I do. Pisces rising, he has Virgo on his seventh house so projects this energy but sometimes it’s owned…

“I wouldn’t worry about that,” I said. “Look. We are in impossible conditions, trying to have a life. I have been in impossible conditions myself, for 9 years. The conditions are completely impossible but I have still managed to have some kind of life.”

“It’s bone chilling and it’s depressing,” said the woman on the phone on the crosstrainer as I passed by. She was speaking astrology but I doubt she knew it. I would have liked to interview her but she wasn’t talking to me.

“What is bone chilling and depressing?” I’d have asked. “The weather? Something else?”

Is there something bone chilling and depressing in your life right now? What?

Saturn / Capricorn expects you age gracefully. For today’s focus on Capricorn, here is the soldier on a rant over the weekend. He doesn’t like aging rock stars who can’t manage to… well, I’ll let him tell you:

“And what’s that woman’s name from Jefferson Airplane? She’s another one I can’t stand. What’s her name? Grace? Grace…”

“Grace Slick.”
