YES,EXACTLY I AM IN THIS CONFIGARATION ACCURATELY.BECAUSE I AM NOT AFRID WHEN I LOST 700000 INR IN MY ACCOUNT AT ONE AND HALF YEAR BACK BUT LAST TWO DAYS BACK I HAVE FELT IN TERROR AND LOST MY HOPE AND MONEY DUE TO SATURN AND NEPTUNE AND NOT MARS .STILL I HOPE IN MARS.I KNOW MY ROAD MAP AFTER MONDAY 25-2-2013.
I have a lot of water in my chart so in the past I sometimes felt under siege when I was not. Or, I WAS, but it was due to terrible mis- interpretation of my words or actions. (Pisces obscures reality!) With so much Pisces in the mix lately it might be easy for us to feel attacked. I find that avoiding going on the offensive works sometimes in situations like this. Although I don’t like Ali’s approach of just taking all that violence! I don’t mean you personally Elsa. If you’re feeling under attack you probably are. But the Pisces stellium energy and Full Moon opposing l can bring this kind of polarization, I find.
I’m just doing a lot of art and music this weekend and avoiding snarky people!!
Absorbing the violence with the plan to strike out later is not always a good thing. You may end up a victim with a lot of PTSD to deal with. Disappearing quietly, with a lot of grace and manners and changing countries or cities may be a lot better. Disabling your own phone’s ringer may also work for a while. Also pretending you don’t quite understand what they’re saying as you haven’t really been conversing in that language for a while also works. This is all based on personal experience. Mars at 17’56 in Pisces in the 12th house. Believe me, I still have PTSD from the rope a dope tactic…..
“Disappearing quietly, with a lot of grace and manners … disabling your own phone’s ringer … pretending you don’t quite understand …” — YES – it all DOES work.
There is a point where you decide that the stress is enough and you need to stop the insanity. By simply being quiet and standing still, that’s enough for other people to back off and walk away at some point, as they wear themselves out. And it leaves you still standing while they prey on their next victim. (You are no longer any fun to play with!)
However, putting yourself ‘out there’ draws the competition and the “dope-a-rope” strategy is extremely effective IF (AND ONLY IF), you still intend to compete at all costs.
As an aside, it’s when you don’t walk away SOON ENOUGH and you continue to take ‘blows to the head’ (i.e., ABSORB THE VIOLENCE) that you leave youself open and subject to continued aggravation and/or emotional pain – thus, possibly leading to PTSD.
In which case, I would think you didn’t “fold ‘em, hold ‘em, walk away” in time to make dope-a-rope effective.
The last step in Kenny Roger’s song refers to “know when to run” –long past the strategy of dope-a-rope, as in when YOU DON’T WANT TO COMPETE ANYMORE … YOU ARE DONE AND JUST COMPLETELY WALK AWAY AND DON’T LOOK BACK!
I often wonder why Astrology is not a respected profession. There is a tremendous amount of study that one has to go through to be an Astrologer and I always think of it as very similar to being a Psychologist.
