Gambling: Leo And The Fifth House by Satori
“If you’re playing a poker game and you look around the table and can’t tell who the sucker is, it’s you.”
— Paul Newman
Christmas is a time when most of our ingrained traditions surface. I spent the first part of the holiday with my family then we drove to spend the rest with the man’s people. It’s interesting seeing the dynamics of each group and how they change depending on who is present. My family tends to bring out my Pisces, I lurk and ruminate, in a good way. His family is a mixed bag of sign influence but I swear it plays out like a Leo convention. My family is a lot of fun, but his family holidays make mine look like a gathering of very tired and irritable monks.

Astrology-Based Advice: Gambling Addict Husband Is Depressed, Second Marriage On The Rocks
Dear Elsa,
I’m only 34. After I got married, my husband changed. He is a gambling addict with severe depression, and his sex drive is nil. I’m torn between remaining a dutiful wife or letting go of our marriage of 3 years. Even with counseling, our home isn’t a pleasant place and I’m battling fearfulness of failure & loss.
Why can’t I leave my marriage? I can’t figure out if it’s out of loyalty, fear, spiritual reasons or emotional problems. I’m really trying to understand if it’s me AND him (it’s my 2nd marriage) or just him. Will it ever get any better or should I painfully leave him in my past?
If I do this, I’m VERY FEARFUL of another emotional mess down the road. Thank you for ANY advice as I will seriously think on it.
Second Marriage
Dear Marriage,
Well, you sound perfectly miserable. I’m sure I would be same if I were married to a depressed man who threw our money away, while leaving me to shrivel up and die on the vine in the bed.
As to whose fault it is… well obviously, you have a very difficult partner here. However it was you who picked him. And why is that? You may as well stay until you can figure this out and with that I can probably help.

Rooting For Someone To Die? Gambling On Life Insurance…
Astrology in Real Life…
Something along these lines came up today and made me think of this old blog from 2007, so here it is.
The soldier’s Scorpio Moon talking to my 8th house, circa 2007:
“Yeah, well she must have thought I was going to die,” he said talking about his wife when he was in Special Forces. “Everyone else was dying. I think she was banking on it. Get the insurance money, you know? But I just kept coming back, still alive.”
I didn’t answer.

Another Person Having A Good Time! Astrology and Gambling…
Ask the Collective…
Z writes on the Today’s Astrology blog:
I didn’t realize things were so bad up there… I’ve been having a good few weeks, the first in ages too.
Z – I think some people thrive in inclement weather. I know I do. I went to an astrology meeting once, about 12 years ago, the topic was gambling. There was a gal presenting who had various theories about when a person should or should not gamble.
Well I haven’t gambled in a while but I used to gamble quite a bit and I was stoopid lucky. I once broke open 6 slot machines in one casino in the space of 2 hours. The mechanic would hear the bell and come running… “You, again?” It was embarrassing!
Anyway, I have won way more than my share, and back at the lecture the gal presenting asked the audience to chime in.
One gal, obviously psychically sensitive said that if you walked into a casino and the energy was bad, you should leave. Say what?
“That may be true for some, but for me… when I walk in a casino and I can feel how bad it is, well it just fires me up,” I said. “I become very determined to win. The thing is the energy in general. To me it doesn’t matter if it is good or bad, only that there is a lot of it, the more the better.”
People turned to stare as they always do at these things. I was so embarrassed.
A few minutes later they held the drawing for a door prize. I won and was mortified. For someone with such a big mouth, I sure hate attention! So anyway, finally the thing ended (thank God) and I got out of there as fast as I could. Have you ever seen a walking person, run? That’s me.
