Elsa,

Thanks for answering my question!
I can definitely see what you mean by this, especially the last part. I know I have a good intuition but I also know I can rely on it a little too much and not always incorporate what’s actually in front of me… I’m working on it.
I think I do have to learn to be a little more patient…my Gemini side wants movement, spark and instant answers but then I forget that I’m a bit of an emotional-sensing Pisces and wind up feeling vulnerable and exposed in some of the situations I put myself in. Playful and airy on the outside, deep on the inside.
I’ve been going through a crisis/extreme mood dip lately because I think things are changing for me as I’m starting to learn to say “no” to people and take better care of myself. Having Mars in Cancer does not make dealing with these issues easy as I frequently retreat into defensiveness.
I have faith in myself and know it’s a phase I’ll get through as I’ve gone through lots of “phases.” I think this is just a big one because I’m starting to see ugliness and struggles in myself and others (family included, this hurts the most) that I was once blind to.
I do find myself surrounded by a lot of people, which is something I’m thankful for but like I said I’ve been struggling with stability and dependence issues.
I have two close friends with Virgo moon (one is a Virgo stellium as well) and these people do have a special place in my heart and help me to see my blind spots.
I agree that because of my imagination and optimistic nature I can and do stay in lust longer than most people…but I’m glad you think this is something that can be worked with or overcome (: I hope so…

I am indeed a bottle of contradictions, but hey- at least I’m not boring. Anyone else feel this?

Responses welcome!
