Fearful Writer – Fleeting Jupiter Transit?
Dear Elsa,
I’d like to know if I’ll ever achieve my dream: to write, to publish and to make a living as a writer.
I’ve got a book coming out in January and it took me 16 rejections to get it published. Number 17 was the one that did it. I will have Jupiter on my Ascendant round that time but, somehow, I can’t trust that alone. I mean, Jupiter will move on! Just because Jupiter is there doesn’t mean instant success.
To feed myself, I currently work as a part-time operator at a call center. In the mornings, I write. My fear is: if I get enough money to quit my job, will I be able to able to discipline myself to write, without a job to go to?
And even if I do this, will writing pay off in the way that I want it? If so, how long will it take! I wanna be a writer, I wanna write, and I wanna get paid to do so. And I don’t think talent is a issue! I’m a Leo, of course I have talent! *lol* I have to have absolute confidence in that aspect.
But discipline alone isn’t enough to get me to the place I wanna be, is it?
Aspiring Writer
Dear Writer,
Are you kidding me? You motivate yourself to show up at your call center job. You write an entire book, suffer sixteen rejections and continue to persevere. Yet here you are worried about whether you have the chops to produce when payday finally rolls around!
Well listen. You have the chops! And yes, Jupiter moves along, but what it does is kick off a twelve year cycle. And Jupiter rules publishing, you know. Plus, your natal Jupiter is in the third house (writing) and beautifully aspected. So calm down, okay? It’s your turn. You’re going to be fine. You have worked for this and now… finally… you’re going to get what you deserve.
I have one more thing to say. You post arrived with ‘lazyblahblahblah” as the sender. Would you please think about ceasing to identify yourself like this? Lazy people don’t write books. Lazy people don’t send their books out to be rejected sixteen times!
In other words, get off your own ass. You have paid your dues in spades, and now you are going to be successful. Deal with it.
