Astrology Short And Sweet Mercury in Synastry – Aries vs Libra
Astrology in Real Life…
I was driving home, talking to the soldier. My Mercury in Libra opposing his in Aries.
“Yeah, I had a really good weekend and because of it, I am going to do something. I am going to try not to fight with you… for the whole week.”
“Oh, well that would be good. I hope you can do it.”
“And I hope you can help from being a crusty soldier, pompous jackass too. Because these things are probably related.”
Going Public – The Soldier’s Stories Are Being Told And Told And Told: Jupiter And Pluto Transit The Midheaven
Astrology in real life…
About telling the soldier’s stories, I am not the only one. Over the weekend he was telling me about something that had happened. He was elaborating because he’d already told me the story. I stopped him to laugh.
“Stop right there, I have already heard this. It’s an episode on the Unit show, ” I said. ‘It is an episode in the 2nd season, I just watched it.”
He was completely surprised. “Are you kidding me? They put this on TV?”
“They did. It was dramatized but yeah. It’s the same story, the one you are telling me. This happens to one of the guys and then… well the way they did it, they showed him going through this emotional process examining his moves. He has to try to figure out if me made an error. Should he have known? That’s the angle they took.”
“Yeah, I did that too. I had to do that.”
“Well they put it on TV.”
“Damn. I can’t believe those guys.” (His friends consult for the show)
Last night, it came up again.
“Let’s face it. Your stories are on the Unit, they are in your son’s history book and they are on my blog. I think some of this stuff is just going to be told. It’s just coming around is all.”
“Yeah, it looks like.”
“And for the record, several anti-war movies just came out. They have big names attached and no one is going to see them. Low box office. Yet the Unit is very popular so make of that what you will. Point is, there is going to me more of this not less because they increase production on anything that is consumed and your life is being consumed. It is entertainment for people, they are absorbing and they are learning and that’s it. This is happening and it’s your whole life too. Your professional life and your private life as well. It is out there after all these years of being completely concealed.”
Have you ever had pieces of your life made public like this? How did you react?

The soldier and I over the weekend… Neptune…
“Yeah, well it hit me a couple weeks ago when you told me, I was 17 but you were only 19! So yeah. That’s young.”
“Yeah, it’s young. It’s very young. I didn’t know anything back then, P. I didn’t know the first thing.”
“Well I see that now, but back then it would have never occurred to me. I mean we were both young, but I still thought you knew way more about things that I did. For example you have already been to jail and been tortured and you had also killed someone.”
“I killed someone when I was 17.”
“I know!” I said with a snort. “You told me. Don’t you remember telling me? So what am I supposed to think? Think you were na¯ve? Hell no. I thought you knew all kinds of things. You had already had all kinds of experiences most people had not and would not ever have so the last thing I am going to think is you don’t know what you’re doing.”
“Well I didn’t know what I was doing… I didn’t know any girl stuff. I didn’t know anything about girls at all.”
“Yeah, okay. I acknowledge this now. I understand it. I was a kid but so were you. You just didn’t come across as a kid.”
“Either did you.”
I just laughed. Hall of mirrors, you know?
Connecting Via Music and Neptune In The Composite Chart
Astrology in real life…
Valkyrie asked on Music, Neptune, Psychic Ability and Etheral Connection, regarding the bond via music between the solider and I:
“What accounts astrologically for a connection like this? Moon-Neptune?”
Valkyrie – I checked into this. Music is definitely a Neptune thing and we have a nearly exact sextile (same degree, within 3 minutes) between Neptune and Mercury in the composite so I would say it is way to communicate.
Neptune is also trine composite Sun, Mercury and the Black Moon Lilith so I’d say our relationship is supported and fed via Neptunian / ethereal things.
These same aspects can be blamed / credited for the fact we wound up separated when we were kids. We have no explanation for how this happened because we never broke up. We were just apart, both distraught, and then the tide came back 25 years later and we are left to puzzle and be in awe, I guess.

The Soldier and His Songs… and Songs… and Songs: Neptune!
Astrology in real life…
“Yeah, I got that album after we broke up. And I didn’t associate it with you at the time, but I do now,” he said.
I didn’t say anything.
“Yeah, so I decided to learn those songs. I learned every single song on that album for some reason.”
“And you collected all those other songs for 25 years. (The Box – Part 3) And you didn’t know at the time someday I would hear them. You didn’t know you’d send them to me, 25 years later.”
“No, I didn’t. I never could understand why I kept doing that either. I tried many times to stop collecting P songs, but I just couldn’t. It was something I felt I had to do.”
“So do you think you collected all those songs for all those years so you could send them in a box and get my attention when we re-met up? And do you think you may have learned all the songs on that album because it’s so moving to me and this way you could play them for me some day when we got back together?”
“Don’t know, P. But yeah. That could be it. I just don’t know.”
The Underside of Covert Communications… Is Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio?
Astrology in real life
I guess I consider this a manifestation of Mercury Rx in Scorpio (things hidden about past intense communication). Also Jupiter in Sagittarius – the truth will set you free! Or telling your story, same thing.
“They don’t know that. Nobody knows that. You know I don’t communicate with people, P. You are the only person I really talk to and you are the only person I have ever really talked to.”
“Okay, well tell me something. Back in 2003, when I got in contact with you and right away… just immediately you started telling me all these Special Forces stories. Why did you do that? How in the world did you decide to tell me this stuff?” Continue reading The Underside of Covert Communications… Is Mercury Retrograde in Scorpio?
The Soldier’s Imaginative Storytelling: Jupiter in Sagittarius
Astrology in real life
Pisces rising with ruler Jupiter in it’s own sign (Sagittarius) in it’s own house (9th) can tell a story, make no mistake.
“P, come here,” he said. “I want to show you this.” He was holding a small black case with metal trim. Sort of a small attach© case.”
“Yeah, what’s in there?”
“Open it.”
I unhooked the clasps, lifted the lid and it was full of cash. Coins, that is. “What is this?” I asked.
“That’s my treasure,” he said. “Doesn’t that look like a treasure to you? Like maybe a pirate lost it or something?” Continue reading The Soldier’s Imaginative Storytelling: Jupiter in Sagittarius
There is a Grand Trine in the Water signs – Sweet!
The Moon will get involved tomorrow… even better!
How’s your day going?
Music, Neptune, Psychic Ability and Etheral Connection
Astrology in real life
I was telling the soldier a story, he was holding his antenna (psychic) which he does sometimes. He did not seem to be listening to me all that much. I ignored his inattention until it was just totally obvious he was elsewhere.
“What is it?” I asked.
“Nothing,” he said, red-faced.
“Liar. Why are you lying to me?” I asked.
“I’m not lying to you,” he said, lying.
“You are lying through your teeth. Don’t you know your whole face swirls around when you lie.” Continue reading Music, Neptune, Psychic Ability and Etheral Connection
