“P, I heard that guy singing about Rosemary today and I thought, oh no!” the soldier said. “That guy must have met P. He knows, P and now he’s singing about her.”

“What, Rosemary?”

“Love grows where my Rosemary goes,” he sang.  “I heard that and just knew he must have met ya, P? I wonder why, P, told that guy her name was, Rosemary. I don’t remember P going by Rosemary.  That poor bastard.”

“I was shocked at the doctor today,” I told the soldier. ‘I’m skinny. I am skinnier than I thought.”

“P, you are always skinny, you’ve never been fat a day in your life.”

“I have so! I weighed 187 and you were there.”

“You did not weigh, 187.”

“Yes I did. I went to the doctor and they weighed me. 187!  That’s when I decided I better do something.  You were at our engagement party by yourself and I lost the whole weight while you were gone…”

This is from 2008, in honor of the current sky where Venus in Leo opposes Neptune and Jupiter in Aquarius which is very similar to the energy in my natal chart. The text below is from February 2009 and requires no update.

I claimed (quite correctly) that at least 40 men had proposed to me in my life and Bella asked on Venus Neptune Getting Married:

What is the astrology for that level of proposal mania?

I stated I had to dodge weddings as if they were bullets and I am reposting this because it takes on a new meaning when you have the back story.

Love unrequited, it’s a fairly common story.  What is unusual is that it seems to dog men and women fairly equally and there is not much that fits that bill.

Pining is a Neptune phenomena so as far as a marker in a chart goes, Neptune tied up with Venus would be the thing to look for both in the chart of the person pining and the person pined for.

Very interesting comments on the Love Across Cultures piece, I am not surprised. Some state plainly, they wish to expand their horizons via their relationships and having Jupiter tied to the 7th house, I can relate.

I also have a 7th house Uranus so would be attracted to to an “other” who is unusual or shocking but I have to say this has blown up on me throughout my life.

What I have learned is (projection again) just because race does not matter to you, does not mean it does not matter to them where :them” refers not only to the partner’s friends and family but to the partner themselves!

Most of you know that my sister is the quintessential shopper… I am the anti-her. I have been dragged to the mall on occasion (Mowgli goes to the Mall) and just recently (this year) been informed that I do in fact have taste, however raw it might be.

We are planning our wedding now and more specifically our honeymoon and this kind of thing just knocks me for a loop. Most of you I have a high degree of angst around marrying. I have gone into ad nauseum so I am not going to elaborate except to say we’ve knocked up against a a number of rocks over the last months trying to work this out. After all the discussion and debate, we landed on the simplest idea.

I have a client who is currently recovering from a relationship where she was deceived. Pulling this up for her benefit. Venus Neptune On The Prowl… Look Out! (from 2007)

“She’s psychic all right,” I told the soldier regarding my sister. Like for example one time I went to see her in the desert, I was trying to get away from a man. He was in my house and I left him there - just left the state.”

I heard him exhale on the phone, he doesn’t like hearing about me and men and I don’t blame him.
