There’s a thread on the boards discussing the situation where a dentist vengefully extracted her ex’s teeth. It got me to thinking. I believe I know what I would do because I’ve been in a reasonably similar situation. However, the puzzle I found interesting was in trying to put together what astrological energies go into producing each individual’s reaction to such stimuli.

Neptune was also transiting the midpoint of my Neptune Sun and Saturn Moon. I was pretty much confused about the nature of my self-indulgent asshattery. Elsa’s cool like that. She tells you the truth but it’s up to you to hear and apply it.
