If A Person Will Lie About One Thing, Will They Lie About Anything?

September 9th, 2011 @ 7:58 am by Elsa

Ask the collective.

“He’s lied about this and this and that, but he would never lie about this other…”

I think most people feel there are lines around another person’s lies. Others think, a liar is a liar.  This is another Mercury opposite Neptune question and I don’t think this is that easy a thing to define.

The person who believes the liar will not lie in certain circumstances may be lying to themselves.  The person who says, once a liar, always a liar is probably lying to themselves as well, most likely by pretending  that they, themselves have never told a lie.

Mercury Square Neptune: June 2, 2011 – Virgo and Gemini Depleted

June 1st, 2011 @ 8:39 pm by Elsa

Astrology in real life

I had a great day and then the tide went out on me. It’s been a long time since I felt so depleted and eventually I realized I was feeling disillusioned as well. It’s a sick feeling when all the air goes out of tires and I was pretty shocked at how severe this was for me because like I said, I’ve not had these feelings for a long time and I mean years.

It’s hard to pull the veil up once it drops so I lie there in this… despair, marveling at how powerful Neptune energy is.

She’s Inordinately Honest Except For When She Lies: Astrology-Based Advice

April 28th, 2008 @ 3:44 am by Elsa

Dear Elsa,

I’ve always thought of myself as a very honest person. My opinion is always the honest one, and I’m not one to mince words to spare the feelings of others. Someone’s going to tell them the truth eventually anyway so it might as well be me! So then why is it that I compulsively lie to my significant other in times of uncertainty or defensiveness??

He really caught me off guard with something this afternoon, and I immediately made the situation so much worse by lying about it. Eventually I got around to telling the truth, but the damage is done. And this is not the first time I’ve lied in such a knee-jerk fashion… I just wish I could get a grip!

kramervskramer100307.jpgDear Girlfriend,

This is a really good question and one that astrology can handle succinctly. Your chart does show a primarily honest person, bold and blunt as you describe. But Mercury rules communication and yours is in aspect to Neptune which gives the ability to obscure things (lie) at times, so there you go. But you are not doomed. Aware of this propensity / ability you need only find an alternative way to express this energy and you should be home free.

Now Mercury is innately tricky and Neptune rules illusion and nuance so check out one of the ways Meryl Streep’s uses her Mercury / Neptune combo:

I saw Streep interviewed years ago and she was talking about the movie, Kramer vs Kramer for which she won an Oscar. The movie is about a couple divorcing – There is a child involved and Streep stated that she makes up (Neptune) some fact (Mercury) about every character she plays. Something that is not in the script that only she knows about the character. She feels this gives her performance something extra and I agree.

So in the beginning of this movie Streep is in an elevator waiting to go down having words with Dustin Hoffman who she is about to divorce. And she stated that during the scene she was thinking the thing she had made up for this role which was the fact, the woman never loved the man. Big difference, huh?

So Hoffman is saying his lines and she is saying hers but guess what? She never loved him in the first place and no one knows this but her. Can you see how this is the same energy? I hope you can but if you learn to use your ability in this type way, not only will you not be hurting yourself, your life will be enhanced.

Good luck.

Behind The Scenes @ ElsaElsa: Problems With Comments

March 8th, 2008 @ 12:13 pm by Elsa

Behind the scenes…

mercury colorSorry for the recent extreme problems with comments going through. I chalk this up to Mercury (communication) conjunct Neptune (disappear) to the exact degree. I bet the problem resolves as the aspect separates and meantime I am digging you guys out of the trash as fast as I can!!



The Mercury Neptune Conjunction And Brilliance From Wherever The Hell It Comes From

January 22nd, 2008 @ 5:18 pm by Elsa

Astrology in real life

aquariusSorry I skipped out today. I had more meetings this morning and I knew on the drive over my subconscious had the wheel. This mostly reassures me except for the Capricorn part which is always terrified.

So I did my meetings and they went okay. They actually went very well. They went tooooo well if you know what I mean and the way home I had the startling realization the meetings were nothing but a head-fake.

Astrology In The News: Matt Drudge – My Kind Of Manipulative Scorpio And Then Some

November 4th, 2007 @ 7:00 pm by Elsa

Outtakes and Various Other Sundries…

matt drudgeI have been reading the drudgereport for nearly 10 years. I became a fan from day one and have always thought I ought to look for Matt Drudge’s birth data and have a peek at his chart for a host of reasons.

First I was pretty sure I would find close contacts between my chart and his because I just like and admire him so much. Nobody can do what he does. They try to clone his site but it’s just hopeless. The guy is unstoppable. There is no way you can trump him, he is just too good at what he does. He is so good in fact, he makes it look easy which is always a sign of skill. But anyway, I finally did it. I nabbed what I think is Drudge’s birthday so lets have a look. Continue reading Astrology In The News: Matt Drudge – My Kind Of Manipulative Scorpio And Then Some



Astrology and Psychic Ability: How Does This Show Up In A Natal Chart?

October 9th, 2007 @ 6:15 am by Elsa

Ask the collective…

pisces neptune psychicI spoke with HQ over the weekend and he asked me if I thought mediums were real. Apparently he’d run across some medium who said not only were they fake. They said every medium they knew was a fake.

Now I don’t know about mediums… people who specifically contact the dead. I have never met anyone who could do it, but I absolutely know people who are “psychic” and I wonder how people think this shows up in chart.

Most notable in my life… psychic beyond a shadow of a doubt would be my sister who always credited her Sun in Pisces trine Neptune for her ability. She also has Mercury in Pisces which I would think denotes the ability to get information from ethereal sources.

The soldier is also wildly psychic. He has a Scorpio Moon conjunct Neptune tightly inconjunct Mercury.

Are you psychic or do you know someone who is? How does your ability manifest?
