Last night someone told me that what they said didn’t count because they said it when they were mad. I disagreed, feeling a person is responsible for what they say, regardless of your mood. Having Mars (impulsive, angry) conjunct Mercury (speech), I have learned this the hard way. Matter of fact, every single regret I have is over something I said when I was hotted up and angry that I didn’t mean.

Having suffered profoundly over what came tumbling from my mouth when I was younger I have learned to make sure I say what I mean and mean what I say. Having the conjunction in the 9th house, I better believe (9th house) what I say (Mercury) or I am going down.

Gossip used to be a hot topic around here a few years back. (tag – gossip) Not so much lately but this post about Sexual Rumors got my attention.  That poor girl.

I don’t like to gossip.  It’s a 3rd house thing where my focus is on the 9th.  I like big, broad ideas that are published out in the open, not little whispers, tiny lies and what becomes a game of Chinese Whispers aka Telephone.

That said, I am a frequent target of gossipers. My ears are burning all the time and occasionally someone tells me they heard I had three noses, four arms and a tail.

When it comes to happy people, I’d say you’re going to see Jupiter strongly placed across the board. It is very hard to take Jupiter down. Matter of fact it is damned near impossible.

If you do take them down, they will be right back up the next day which is why Sagittarius beats the hell out of Scorpio. (All the signs are battered by the one that follows them… including Pisces which is followed by Aries)

Back with a quirky story in regards to the Neptune-on-the-midheaven hologram me, I posted about this morning…

With Mars conjunct Mercury in the 9th house, I go to court quite a bit and I always have. I initiated a lawsuit against my boss when I was 17 years old and was sued myself (for the first time) when I was 19. I represented myself back then, I always do.

From 2008:

“…women don’t tend to admit being “pretty good” in our culture.”

No they don’t. Even if the believe it they don’t state it as if it is impolite to have self-esteem. So here I am with Mars conjunct Mercury (loud) in the ninth house (broadcast) in Libra (Venus) and what am I do to? Yell out that I am desirable or pervert my energy?

If you think I should pervert my energy, should I dye my hair too? What else should I do to be more palatable? And why should I do this again?

Eventually your number comes up: A story to illustrate how Saturn works in real life. A tale of a slow learner, related to Tempting Fate – I was lucky I didn’t kill anyone.

(From 2007) Last night I was talking to a pal who copped to being what she called “game-y” in relationships when she was younger. She described how she manipulated men by coming on strong and then backing off to keep their energy on her. She’d have them obsessing trying to figure out what she was up to and I was completely enthralled listening to her  because I am the polar opposite of this.

Do you look at people’s hands? I always notice a person’s hands and when I do, it is always with this question in my mind:

“Would I like this person to touch me?”

Hands are Mercury ruled. I have Mars conjunct Mercury in the 9th house and my hands are large (9th house) and very energetic (Mars). They are almost constantly banged up (Mars), if not actually bleeding and if I put them on you, you’ll know it.

I feel a lot of energy pass through my hands and I like them, tremendously. I like to work with them. I like to put them on people for sure. People I like or I love, that is. I don’t like to touch strangers at all! Yecch!

What are your hands like? Where is your Mercury?

I have a stable of friends. An array, you could say and every friend I have is very good at being who they are. They are each very fine specimens of whatever it is they happen to be and I realized the other day that I milk this to no end.

When something happens in my life, I generally make the rounds. I call everyone who is currently tracking with whatever news I have and ask them what they think. What does a Scorpio think? What does an Asian think? What does the most emotionally sensitive person I have ever met think about this?
