Lynn said on Dirty Grave

“I’m sorry you feel beaten up at the moment Elsa.”

Lynn, no. I just thought of the song today. Everything in my life that is now, always has been and I hope this is something that will emerge in this class. I have a vision, see? I have Mars Mercury in the 9th house. The 9th – storytelling… I have a motive (Mars) when I write (Mercury). I have a high mind (9th house). I have a purpose. I BELIEVE in what I am doing and saying and I am confident.

“I get so tired of working so deep in this dirty grave… and stayin’ up all night.”

– Doug Bennett in “Frankie” with Doug And The Slugs

I remember when I first started writing stories on xanga. People beat the hell out of me and I just couldn’t understand it. I was telling them a story, see and it was going to be a good one but they just could not let me tell the damned thing.

It occurred to me this morning as I was thinking the recent blogs and videos about maintaining some kind of decorum after a break up that the soldier and I would not be where we are right now had we messed each other up as kids. But we didn’t and it strikes me now how rare this is.

This morning I called Sportsman’s Warehouse to see what time they opened because the soldier wanted me to pick something up there. The phone picked up and there was a recorded message, “Come to our store closing sale…”

We lost a circuit city, we lost 2 grocery stores, and too many small businesses around here to count.

It’s no secret I am fascinated with the secret lives of men. Any woman who moves into a male barracks or goes undercover as a gay man is not messing around on this front. I am even scoping when I take my son to the skateboard park. Yes, I know girls ride skateboards however I have yet to see one at this park on a weekday afternoon so I am able to observe the boys in their habitat and I do.

Reading the comments on Astrology and the Grandiose Personality and thinking about them, it occurs to me, I like a little Capricorn in my people. Humility (real humility) is such an endearing trait, it is almost as if a person is bereft without it.

Here’s another type we’ve never discussed on this blog probably because they don’t show up around here much, if at all. They don’t show up in my life outside this blog either, except by accident or some hook or crook.

For example there are astrologers like this I will encounter via the Astro Dispatch but having had contact with hundreds of peers, I can tell you that while it exists and the specimens are extreme, they are very rare. I am talking about self-important types who for whatever reason consider themselves a cut above and I mean they want you to bow.

The soldier is headed home and I have been informed I should make the bed less comfortable if I want him to be comfortable. Specifically, he has slept on rocks most his life… or in a bunk and he just can’t stay in a fluffy bed that long.

“I can only be in there about 7 hours,” he said.

“And if I make it less comfortable?”

The conjunction of the Sun, Mercury and Venus retrograde in Aries still square Pluto but the Moon has moved into Taurus and is trining Pluto.

This means ex-lovers may still be crawling from graves or trash cans (yours or theirs). People may still be driven to act of express their anger by motives that are sub or semi conscious. However people are feeling much better.
