I am tumbling pretty badly right now and told my husband I have not had a bad run like this since 1983.
“My daughter…that was long, slow and deeply painful. It was prolonged; deep; pain. It was slow Agony that went on and on but this is different. This comes out of nowhere and I haven’t had a run like this since 1983. I just hit a skid back the and one thing after another after another kept happening, all of it jarring and cascading and there was nothing I could do until I landed. It went on like that for six months and then I landed at the Plaza Hotel and met, Ben. Yeah, I’d lost everything by then and when I landed at the Plaza, Ben was there. We met and that was when I started to be able to feel the ground under me again. I just ended the streak.”
He didn’t say anything.
“Yeah, I lost my job, I lost my grandfather, I lost my boyfriend. I woke up crying every day and do you know I was walking around with a button that said, “I WANT A JOB”. I laughed. “Crazy. You think I am crazy with a button like that. I got everyday and put it on.”
He laughed. “No, that sounds like normal, P. If I saw you with a button like that, I’d say there i,s P. Hi P! Howya doin’?”
“Oh brother…”
On the boards I mentioned I was trying to think of a song in regards to this. It was on the tip of my brain and I knew if I could remember it, I’d feel better. I finally thought of it.
This Paul Simon with Phoebe Snow, who died this year. It is premature for me to play this now but you can see why I’d want to hear it. I probably listened to it in 1984! RIP Phoebe. Enjoy, ya’ll.
Have you ever had a series of calamities in your life that came so hard and so fast that you realized there was nothing you could do until someone shut the machine off? What was the transit?

Pluto square Pluto.
Oh yeah. Right now. Neptune is in my second house: conjunct saturn, square jupiter, oppose venus. It’s not going to stop going back over that point until 2012. Pluto in the first. Saturn on the Sun, also not done with my ass til 2012. . Amazed I’m still walking around.
2008-2009 Pluto conjunct Ascendant/Jupiter/Neptune
Moved to NY with 3 jobs. Got there lost all 3 jobs. Lost my boyfriend. Shaved my head. Got stood up by everyone who was supposed to helped me. Was depressed and spent days and days alone. I just couldn’t fit in anywhere right. Had to move back home.
After that. I had fits of good times. And fits of bad and worse times up until last Winter when Pluto finished up on my Ascendant.
Now he is squaring my Moon…
I’m still in the clutch in so many ways myself, and your post hits hard, close to home and I’m so damn sorry to hear it for you.
It wears a soul down every day to feel that dread of anticipating that somewhere, some other hobnailed shoe is poised to drop. No surcease. No relief…and to feel like there’s not a decent option to cut, run, let it all burn and see if there’s something and somewhere else to start over from.
On the one hand, there have been days where my animals, and family who seriously relied and depended on me were the *only* thing that got me up, moving and through the day…but then–they were/are also significant liabilities–at risk from those who could use them against me, and also significant factors whose well-being had to be weighed into any and every decision.
Reinvention and restoration were a damn sight easier to fathom even through the pain when I was younger and had fewer obligations…That must be why the world gives you all those practice runs and lessons in how to free fall, how to fight, and what’s worth fighting for…I have a deep need to believe that anyway.
I’ve picked my hill and though I don’t intend to die on it…This is it. My hill. My obligations and liabilities freely chosen and I’ll fight to hold back or ride across the bad patch even if it takes me all the way down.
Otherwise? I can’t even let my mind go down the path of ‘otherwise’…
2004. Lost my man, my mother turned on me, lost my job, they tried to block me from getting unemployment so I had to go to court and fight for it, my ex befriended my friends and slept with my nemesis, I lost my financial aide but not until after the tuition payments were due. It caused me to realize that there wasn’t anything else I could do but to stop pushing that boulder up the mountain, step aside and watch it roll down. For every step forward I was slipping two steps backward. January – June 2004. Not sure what the transit was.
{{{{{Elsa}}}}}
I feel for you, Elsa, as I have definitely “been there”. I don’t recall the transit (I’m stuck using my phone as my “computer” right now, so forgive me for not looking it up), but I know Pluto was involved. Got cancer, had no job, family couldn’t (or wouldn’t) help, was homeless for a bit, etc…
Anyway, I’ll try to look up the transit later…had gotten my chart done six months prior to that by Jyoti & I remember her mentioning it was a harsh transit. Heh…
My life has been one long series of Pluto transits, so it’s hard to pinpoint the bouts of bad luck — the long, drawn out suffering tends to stand out. That said, 2007-2008 was the height of my Pluto oppose Venus transit and toward the end, my Saturn return. I lost three pets, my house flooded from rain three times even after big bucks spent on repairs, then most of my plumbing system failed, my AC broke, I got stiffed by a client, my marriage began to unravel … Everything literally was falling to shit bit by bit and I was a total emotional wreck and ended up in therapy. Prior to this things had been calm for about a year, which was the gap between the transit to Venus and Pluto conjunct my Neptune/Ascendant.
I’m finishing up my second round now. Started with Pluto opposite Venus, then Saturn mowed over my Pluto, Jupiter and Uranus which morphed into both my Jupiter opposition and Uranus opposition. And somewhere in there was my Neptune square… all over a span of about four years. Lost my marriage, my job, my home and was even denied for food stamps because I wasn’t working while going to school full-time. I just gave up and grieved for what feels like every day for a few years.
My first round of bad luck started with the day I was born – I wasn’t supposed to live more than 24 hours and then proceeded to be raised (or not) by a drug addict mother while my dad was in Vietnam for four years. I’m TB + (thanks mom) and spent the first year on medication, in addition to having two hernia operations at 6 months and 2 years because I cried so much and my mother just ignored me. The neighbors were the ones that had finally had enough of my crying!
Elsa, I’m sorry that you are having such a hard time right now. I hope that you can see the light at the end of the tunnel – I believe this stuff happens in waves and if you can just remember that there will be better days, it might help!
(((((Elsa))))
I been there, more than once. I’m sorry. I hope things turn around soon.
Thanks for the song pick, btw, Elsa. Really nice choice.
Yes I have. It was Saturn conjunct my moon, when Pluto was oppose my moon, during the Saturn Pluto opposition in 2000. Uranus was squaring my Sun at the same time. It was a lot all at once. I kept breathing and saying to myself, this too shall pass.
Over the past few years, but I’m noticing good luck, too, here and there – bright spots.
There have been others – extended pluto transits usually involved, or making the wrong decision that spiralled.
I’m sorry you’re having to deal with so much, and wish that just saying that could ease it somehow. I was thinking about the post on suffering, and the comments, and what scares me is that I know I haven’t seen anything yet, when it comes to specific losses down the road (hopefully far down the road).
(((Elsa))) that video “Gone at Last” – great title. I’m relating it to the grief which finally ended one year ago this month after a 4 year run.
Last year I added up all the deaths of loved ones and losses of career, health, etc. since 2000. Spread over that time, it was one death/loss every year, except they all happened 2 at a time in that 10 year span. Sibling death started it off and it’s just never stopped. Until this year I guess. So yeah. No idea on the transits but I’m about done caring about much of anything anymore – specifically jerks and material things.
(((((elsa and all)))))
(((Elsa))) I’m sorry, E.
To answer the question:
I honestly don’t remember. I can think of a few times when things went to hell, but it’s never been that stark. There’s always been a cushion, somewhere.
The worst I can think of is December 2002. There for a few months, there wasn’t anything going right in my world — but it didn’t last long, so I don’t look back and see devestation.
((elsa)) Summer 2001 Pluto was sitting on my IC and l’ve lost my grandmother & more of my familly, my childhood house abroad, my boyfriend&our house, (l was also pregnant). l’ve lost my job, my clothes&shoes got stolen…it felt like there were walls falling on me one after another…l was crying every morning yep l know that feeling, 2010 felt similar in a way.
{{{{Elsa and family}}}}
I saw the title and IMMEDIATELY thought of the song. Great minds and all.
elsa will censor this quickly as usual
elsa, you have neptune/mc
until you can see yourself (NEVER)
you will always be a pawn
ALWAYS
really with best “wishes:
((((Elsa))))
In 2009 tr. Sat conjuncted Su/Ve/Asc, with tr. Ur on the Desc. Both squaring natal Ur/MC/IC. Everything tumbled down. Couldn’t handle it. Lost lover, friends and job. And myself.
Last year tr. Sat conjuncted Mer/Mo/Nep. Tr. Pluto is squaring those three now. The end of all my dreams – but maybe that’s what my 12th house Sun needs. I learn to live in the Now.
I’ve got Sat/Pl conj. in Leo in house 11.
How unfair, cj. I “censor” roughly 1 comment out of every 5000 made on this site, and always from a repeat offender.
As I recall, you went on a crazy fucking streak one night – ya must have been drunk – and I deleted your comments for your sake not mine.
That was one night out of the thousands you’ve spent on this blog and I’m tagged like this? Puleease.
(((Elsa)))
Yep, I get it. There right now. Hope I’m hitting the end of it. I’d go into it, but I’m tired of talking about myself.
I don’t think it will be possible to un-bump short term but I am hoping for some of the things in the air of fall my way. This hasn’t happened yet and I guess that is the streak, actually.
But longer term, I just hope to land somewhere and orient quickly.
When this happened last time, I quit tending bar (after 8 years tending bar). This time it looks like I will quit blogging. So when you quit doing what you have been doing for a long time, at least in my experience, it’s quite stressful. It takes a jarring series of events which is what is happening now.
yeah…
And I don’t know the transit. But I know I got one of these (((ELSA)))
I remember I had one year, when I was ten. Broke my two front teeth, after they had just popped out. And no they were not my baby teeth. My father was hospitalized for an infection in his leg, which unbeknownst to me turned into kidney cancer, and then one day I was taken to the hospital to visit him on his death bed. After that, I was on an airplane that experienced severe turbulence and almost fell out of the sky, it was so bad it was on the news. All within a period of 6 months. I remember counting the occurences on my hand after that, wondering if whom/whatever was out to get me had had enough. I was a totally different kid after that. And the friends I made after that were superficial attatchments that knew nothing of the pain I had buried deep inside after my fathers death.
I’m not sure of the other transits, but I know I had Pluto sextile Sun , exact when my dad passed.
(((Elsa))) thank you for creating a space where I feel welcome and safe.
You’re welcome, vah and I am sorry about your dad. You too are describing what I’m talking about. It’s just over as you knew it.
That must have been particularly horrible to go through at 10 years old.
(((Elsa)))
I know that when I am going through hell, I like to listen to that country song, “When your going through hell, keep on going” by Rodney Atkins. It helps me to keep thing in prespective, and to remember the strength we all have.
ThankYou Elsa Panzzoni Great Post as Usual !!!
Pluto Square Pluto + Neptune Square MidHeaven Opposition to Ascendant I was Making Big Mistakes without even Knowing everybody knew and nobody told me anything and i always used to prevent them of bad things. AMAZING i am still reconstructing things and trying to understand !!!
Blessings !!!
(((Elsa)))
Pluto transit opposite natal Jupiter. It’s been a hard year with one thing after another. Plus it robs a person of all optimism.
2006. That was the year my marriage almost went belly up.
I had other periods of being down, but nothing like that one. I always had somewhere to land. Not that time.
Neptune opp Sun/Mars.
Pluto exactly square Pluto and coming up on Venus.
Saturn conjunct Sun/Mars.
Uranus opposite Mercury.
OUCH.
(((Elsa)))
I also want to say that although your blog helps so many people and everyone here has been fed from your table time and time again, with imeseaurable good results, I truly hope that you do what is right for you. Sending love.
I’m still going through the fallout from the Cardinal Climax and my 2010 29 deg Cusps Solar Return. The 2011 Solar with the 2nd House Aries Stellium as per outside my Natal has not kicked in yet (hurry up and kick in!).
Bankruptcy, divorce, and moved to a new city with my three kids and many family pets.
My money started out tight, but keeps getting tighter. I am not getting my full support payments. The ex refuses to send in the money he owes.
I’ve been forced to pull up most of the carpeting in the house and can’t totally relax yet. It’s one thing after another and it never settles down.
So far, my job-hunting efforts have come up empty.
Maria Shaw wrote an excellent article on the Cardinal Climax. It keeps me going forward. Things will work out through 2012, but right now it’s definitely not fun.
(((Isernia)))
cj, must you be a shithead?
Elsa, I’m just one of many who are in your corner. No more looking the other way when the cj’s of the world spew. I’ve had it.
Thank you, maureen. I spend less way less than 1% of my time on this blog “censoring” people which means I spend more than 99% of time time doing something else, but look at that tagging.
If you want to insult me, try to make sense.
A whole decade of disaster after disaster. As a “lucky” sadge my optimistic nature, though seriously tested, is the only reason I survived. Pluto moving into Sadge in 2001 the WTC fell on my apartment, I inhaled lots of dust resulting in years of health problems.
Career wise I would get the perfect job and then have a boss that would make going to work unbearable (sexists, bullies, why was I attracting them!).
Pluto exact square to sun – Got sick had to leave work for a year while I had severe chronic fatigue and chemical sensitivies (taking showers with sunglasses on in the dark kind of a situation). Fought hard got better, couldn’t wait to get back to work & have an income.
Then I just couldn’t get a full time job for the past five years despite having gone to great schools, MBA all the BS type A’s do to fit into the work world. Had to turn to the oldest profession out of desperation. Latent memories of childhood sexual abuse came to the surface. Tried to find a good therapist, couldn’t, completely shut down. Pulled my self together and tried once again to start a life.
But no one will hire me and I do not have fund to start my own business. So I wait and being a Sadge somehow always just get by.
At 32, beautiful, intelligent, friendly I sit alone in my moms house most days at a loss of what to do with myself. I stay entertained but really keeping on after ten years of literally everything squaring my sun, especially during my Saturn return.
But I have a lot to be thankful for and along the way there have been enough little treats, luxuries and beauty to feel life is worth living. I am a galactic center baby and my intuition tells me these challenges are puzzles pieces of a larger message that I need to share with society through writing & activism. But first I need enough of a break from the universe to get my feet on the ground and feel that I will survive.
I don’t think that will come anytime soon though as the eclipses on my last birthday and the world ending on my birthday next year (lol I just like the drama of that statement) will allow this girl to get her feet solidly planted on the earth.
I am glad people are weighing in with their years long troubles. I have written about this before – it is entirely possible to blink and lose 10 years and it’s for people to realize this can happen.
Conoco, you gave me my first hug here! Thank you! 
We all have to know that all these things out of our control are ultimately happening to make things better for us. It’s the nature of the Cardinal Climax and it hit all of us somehow. Some of us (like me and my girlfriend) more than others. Things WILL get better. Faith.
I didn’t know that Isernia!
Oh how true – blink and 10 years goes by and you realize that not only are you no further ahead, but you have actually lost ground.
Life goes so quickly, which is why it’s so frustrating to try to get ahead only to keep getting your ass kicked.
Meanwhile, I look around and have some friends who spend money like water and are living the Yuppie dream. Sigh. I don’t begrudge them, I just want what’s mine already! High hopes! We got high hopes! High apple pie in the sky hopes!
Katastro, God bless you. How horrifying to be right in the middle of that horrible situation. I watched it on TV and was terrified – I picked up my kids from school as fast as I could – and I live in Ohio.
Thank God for Moms, or those who act like them. If it were not for my mother right now, *shudder*. She’s retired and almost 70, but she helps the little bit she can. Every kindness helps!
I try not to think about the period I had 2005 to end of 2007- it feels like being punched in the stomach just having it in my head. It was so shitty, with no reprieve. Unfortunately today I googled somebody– and little pieces of that time are just flashing back to me– I don’t know how I got through it. Yes, there are people in the world who have been through worse- but of people I know, I think I have been through the worst, with the least resources. No understanding, no help- I almost can’t believe it.
What sticks out are the people who were critical, nasty, judgmental and condescending. People who added to the burden. Hypocrites. And of course at the time, I was in a weakened state, and I couldn’t even fend them off like I could now, so it was just so–extra raw.
I have no problem wishing them much, much pain and suffering, to be honest.
So sad to know that you are having problems. I had a disastrous succession of problems with the Uranus-Neptune and then Saturn over natal venus-libra (squares) that was on ’80
When Pluto was over Capricorn (squaring venus) I felt scared again -a justified fear- the problems began again: financial troubles, sexual harassment, threats and serious problems with pluto-people.
I finished almost exhausted a few months ago. Then I recovered my histamina, slowly and firmly reached balance, and some success in my professional work. Don’t know exactly why, May be saturn over my libra sun? transiting Uranus trine my leo Jupiter? I can tell you about years and years of hard work that support me and give me quietness, there is not magic.
I think it is a saturn lesson. Saturn is a hard god to play with. I is not for starters, however always pays.
I’m sorry you’re going thru a hard time, Elsa. Like everyone else, I hope you don’t stop blogging, but you have to do what’s best for you.
Me? Right now. Pluto conjunct Ascendant. It’s been a few years, I’ve lost my physical and mental health, lost the love of my life, my company that I founded 11 years ago, have gone bankrupt – everything’s gone now. Thank God for my parents who I’m going to go live with and work on my health.
If you looked at a photo of me now and a photo from 3 years ago, you wouldn’t think it was the same person. It’s *not* the same person.
I spent most of the 90s in this state – I’d had hard times before, very hard indeed esp 1976-80, but this one seemed to go on and on with almost no respite.
I think some people just have lives like that – I know I have had one, full of fantastic but brief highs, and long periods of extreme difficulty, esp financial, and mostly with no support. Whatever I build gets knocked down, sooner rather than later. At least the blog and boards, in all their richness, are here in cyberspace for years to come, though hell we would miss it, daily. Most of us have real friends here!!
Hard to comment Elsa, to any purpose, since we have no idea what’s so seriously troubling you, and it can’t just be a few stroppy people on the blog and boards!
“Hard to comment Elsa, to any purpose, since we have no idea what’s so seriously troubling you, and it can’t just be a few stroppy people on the blog and boards!”
Right, I know. But I have found over the years when things are really difficult, if you talk about them, they eat up an even larger part of the day.
My family has is facing various significant challenges… as expected to an extent as this grand cross hits our charts hard and my son, in particular is going to be dealing with Pluto in Cap in a very, VERY intimate way for some years. This has come upon us now and I am just looking to handle things smartly.
Anyway, these will be the Pluto in Cap years for us and that’s about all there is to say.
I am glad you have real friends here, BP. 
Elsa, I’m sorry for your trouble – please let me know if there is any way I can help. You are so giving that people may see you as invincible and self sufficient and it’s so hard to ask for what you need. I’ve known long periods of troubles too – most especially Pluto transit natal Moon, sometimes it just goes on for years without respite.
Life is short Elsa, and I support you 100%- even if it means ‘The End’ for the EE Blog. You have to do what’s best for you (and your family)!
Lets see…lol
Big hug Elsa….I moan and groan about my Pisces and sag. all the time so who cares.
Sorry you are going thru tuff times at the moment I hope it will end soon.You deserve it. Finding you has certainly helped me put it all in perspective. Its been like free or low cost therapy…Thank you four your service….regaining MOST of my sanity has been a priceless gift.
Thank you, sheepish. We’re okay and we will be okay. I am just going to have to see what happens next as thing continue to occur.
For example, today I was called by a bill collector. It’s not my bill – all our bills are paid, but now I know this other person is in trouble see, and they have ties to me and this will eventually have an effect on my family and it may be enormous.
My husband does need a new job, there is a health problem, and I did find out our health insurance premiums are to triple (they doubled last year) and just various other things that can and will be dealt with.
However in the meantime, I don’t have a lot of patience for people who want to play games and I don’t want to give (life) blood to people who don’t appreciate it. I can’t take the drain, see? There is no point or reason for me to do that.
I realize that people benefit from this blog, the newsletter or whatever. But I have to benefit as well. Even more importantly, I can’t be drained by it because I need that energy for my family and my clients, many of whom are in very difficult, painful situations. It takes energy to do this job. It takes tremendous focus so now I am weighing things – Saturn in Libra. Is this (or that) worth the investment? Can I afford it?
There is a very good exchange between me and my clients. Almost everyone is happy with my work, 95-98%. They feel they get a good value, they come back and they recommend me to other people so this is something that is working and balanced.
The blog is a different story as is the newsletter. I don’t quite understand it yet. I have to think it through along with that dratted Astro Dispatch.
This is a lot of work! If I have come to a point where I can’t communicate properly or a point where what I have to say or how I say it does nothing but rile people up or upset them – I can’t see the point in continuing. It’s just not interesting to me, as I keep saying over and over.
I don’t get off on strife, regardless of how many deluded people otherwise. Especially now.
You want to clang pans around me and I will ask you to stop. I will pray you stop and I will pay you to stop but if you won’t stop, eventually, I am going to shoot you because I am not going to let you bang pans in house just because you are a 35-year-old baby. There is a line there, see?
If you don’t know you are a 35-year-old baby, then whatever. I guess that’s common but it does not mean I have to tolerate it, especially now.
I hear there are websites for 35 year old babies all over the place. This blog is and always has been a place for adults who know how to handle themselves, their boundaries and their liquor!
If you don’t have these skills, you should leave and not come back until you do, otherwise this is going to be a very dangerous place for you.
“Its been like free or low cost therapy”
Oh hell yeah. I agree.
Thanks, CArRiE. And thanks for sticking around.
I haven’t posted in a while – was busy working hard.
I’ve actually only recently been slammed hard by things, how humbling that will be…for me the hardest part is not understanding why. But I watched my cousin closest in personality and age to me suddenly get aggressive and hard to treat breast cancer – she’s doing okay now. Then I came down with Lyme disease again and it looks like I’m now showing signs of autoimmunity problems and fibromyalgia – I absolutely fear becoming disabled. I lost one job, and my other job seriously cut hours for everyone (as required by the company – I’m working 20 hrs/wk TOTAL) so I’m not making enough to keep up with bills. I had also just transferred stores and the one I transferred to is so much worse in all ways, it’s miserable. Jobs in my field are scarce or require more training than I can get, so I’m applying to any old retail/desk jobs with nothing biting. I’m sleeping on a couch in a covered porch, and prepared my car for me to live in, because my housing is not stable right now simply due to it being temporary. Guys keep claiming they are interested, then I call them and they ignore me. I’ve had multiple unexpected huge expenses this month that cut into my mere savings.
And yet, I don’t want pity from those around me who care. I’m probably doing enough of it for myself anyway! I’ve wanted to give up every day on trying to find jobs or trying to find more ways to cut expenses.
Not sure what aspects are definitely involved but I don’t have many between the outer planets. I noticed all of this began around my Jupiter opposition beginning on July 15th and it hit my Ascendant, and I’m not sure having natal Jupiter in Scorpio in 7th is that great to begin with. I’m also heading right into my Saturn Return in 6th (conjunct Mercury and Pluto – Saturn is already on Mercury). Ugh.
2007 was my worst year. This was the first time I have actually taken the time to go back and look at the astrology of what was going on then.
Back then; my first love whom I lived with at the time abruptly broke up with me and broke my heart sending me back to live with my parents..my car got stolen..my father died..I moved to a new town for school where I didn’t know anyone and I was so depressed and lonely and lost.
This is the astrology; surprisingly jupiter and uranus are the culprits!
So natally I have a mutable grand cross with venus/chiron/jupiter/uranus
During this time transiting jupiter was conjunct my uranus and transiting uranus was conjunct jupiter-squares and oppositions everywhere!
WTF to say. .. whatever the details may be. No platitudes to give except… you seem a survivor and I am sure you will get through this as well. ((( ! )))
And from the sounds of it lots of us have gone through a lot. What survivors we all are!!
As for my own stuff: with Saturn in 1st I have not had an easy life. Alcoholic mother, abusive father never felt great as a kid but hung in there..>Scorpio rising= tenacious.
Then….as an adult…after Saturn return….Pluto on Ascendant brought divorce, car accident, end of my life as I knew it…then Neptune opposite Sun right after brought long term illness.
Next…few years later as I was pulling myself together….moved to new country starting new life found love…then…Pluto hit my Moon (and his Sun) and my true love/ soul mate dematerialized…I thought I would die.
The latest has been Neptune Chiron on IC suddenly had to leave where I was after 12 years building a life there… back to square one.
Now suddenly I am starting to surrender. I have let go of so much there is nothing much left to let go of. (Neptune has been squaring my Saturn in 1st house…dissolving my resistance?) Its still not easy but has definitely improved. I am learning how to ride the waves.
My son is ill with Lymme disease…I just tell him the same. Surrender. Do your best. Trust. Let go. What else can one say? This is all temporary.Live one day at a time.
And…Shit happens. Isn’t that the Buddhist belief…all life is suffering? . Because it can all change at any moment. Because we attach ourselves to impermanent things. We think that is who we are. My son is ill with Lymme disease…I just tell him the same. Surrender. Do your best. Trust. Let go. What else can one say? This is all temporary.
I wish you all the best Elsa no matter what the outcome. You will still be you…which is in the end all you’ve got. And that’s a lot.
(((Elsa)))
Most recently, the past year. A couple of things have been a comfort to me: comments from Elsa in a consult before I shut down, and this post here: http://www.elsaelsa.com/astrology/2011/03/21/life-in-a-war-zone-or-its-equivalent/ That’s what I’d done, I’d stopped trying to process because it was completely immobilizing, and when I read that post, I felt reassured about having gone that route.
The key transits are probably transiting Saturn conjunct my Sun-Pluto, with transiting Pluto squaring same, and the series of Grand Crosses bringing more to the party. Thanks to the direct and retrograde movements, Saturn and Uranus like to go back and drag my Mercury into things as well.
Thanks to Elsa posting about getting clear of transits, I’ve got it on my calendar that there’s less than 3 weeks left before Saturn moves one degree past my natal conjunction. It’s something, right?
I’m sorry that you’ve got the streak going on, Elsa, Eva, CP, Natalia, Kim, Isernia, Katastro, Josephine, EccentricVirgo, and Raven. I hope to read good news from all of you someday.
The good new is…(for me) I am alive! I can appreciate being alive. In this moment all is well.
I had assumed my problems were SAturn in Virgo, but things only got worse when it went into Libra, and then thru a consult with Elsa, I realized it was Pluto in Cap. Like she said, this is going to be hitting a lot of people for a long time.
