Just to illustrate the variety of levels on which a transit manifests, check this on my Saturn transit to Venus:

I am coming off sugar today. I am one of those people highly extremely sensitive to sugar. I would be with Venus (sweet) square Neptune (sensitive). So anyway, I have figured this out and avoided sugar for some years until… I fell off the wagon! Again with the Venus Neptune, there is a sugar addiction and I have to get control (Saturn) of it!

So anyway, I lost my sobriety! And I have been eating ice cream right and left over the last couple months. In an effort to keep up with my out-of-school kids for the most part, along with the stress of missing my regular workouts during the summer break.

But enough of that! I’m going cold turkey now and man oh man, am I ever TIRED. I am just exhausted. Saturn, right? I feel completely oppressed. Nothing a bowl of ice cream wouldn’t fix, but you know. That’s out of the question. That is not allowed!

So I just think this is funny. Because if you’ve ever done this, then you know how it feels. If your body is used to running on sugar and you deprive it? Well it feels like someone beat me up!

So I’m sitting here trying to stay awake while I show up to make various commitments in various relationships. “Yes, I will be there, yes I am committed, yes I am serious…” Blah, blah, blah! What I really want to do is hide under the bed!! Neptune, escape!!!

But noooooooooooooo! Instead I have to face, ponder and process 28 years of relationships, in my face, and I have to do it sober!!

It’s 3:15. I have roughly 7 more ice cream free hours in the day. Root for me, would you?
