Scorpio Dealing With Scorpio… And Saturn in Virgo
Astrology in real life
I’ve worked intensely with a Scorpio dealing with her relationship with a Scorpio throughout this full moon. The gal has Capricorn so she must mind Saturn which is now on it’s way back into Virgo. I am beginning to look forward to this transit namely because I see evidence all over the place, people could really use some further instruction ’round their communications etc. and I include myself in this group.
There are people who go on and on not realizing people quit listening long ago. This is a trap I fall in all the time and I hate the idea of being ineffective so will embrace this time to brush up and learn to become more concise and sensitive and respectful of another person’s attention span and brain space in general but back on the two Scorps…

Investing In Things (And Ideas And Relationships) That Are Bound To Fail
Step away from the corpse redux
Some days I feel more willing and able to deflect the fire I draw when I post my husband’s voice which is never ever, PC. I’ve got little room to talk on that front but in whatever case he went on an incredible rant the other night.

Saturn’s Transition From Virgo To Libra: What Have You Noticed?
Ask the collective
Saturn’s shift from Virgo to Libra has been very noticeable for me. I am still working a lot but it is much easier.
While I do feel deeply, my job involves thinking and communicating and this is far less challenging than it was even 2 weeks ago. I feel like I have a sense of mastery over my Mercurial functions and it’s a true relief. My time is better managed, my carpel tunnel is managed, I have a pretty good idea where the lines go and feel truly ready to advance.

Trends In The Collective: Saturn And Pluto Changing Signs, The Natural Zodiac vs The Personal Experience
Commenting on the comments
StephB writes on Saturn Leaves Libra… 7 years:
You mentioned reflecting on what’s happened in the 4th, 5th, and 6th houses (from the natural chart, right?). But would it be more important to reflect on the last three houses that Saturn has transited in our own chart? In other words, are we still climbing the (natural chart) mountain even if Saturn is actually descending on our natal chart?
StephB – no, it doesn’t translate. The quadrants are defined as shown in the diagram. In other words, houses 5, 6 and 7 so not represent a quadrant.

Twitter, Facebook, And The Elsa Blog: Time Is Scarce, Whiplash Is Out There, Saturn Is Going Into Libra And There Will Be Discourse!
Astrology in real life
With Mercury conjunct Saturn in Virgo, time seems very limited. While I like them both, it’s occurring to me I don’t have time for twitter and/or facebook.
It’s very difficult to maintain a blog these days due Saturn’s influence on Mercury-ruled writing. It is further complicated by the Uranus opposition because whatever you do manage to write is going to protested by roughly half the people out there and here is the surprising thing:
Saturn’s Transit Through Virgo – What Have You Learned?
Ask the collective
With Saturn heading into Libra I was mulling the changes I have made and things I’ve learned during Saturn’s transit through Virgo. In my case most of the stuff is centered around communication. For example I no longer write, “The thing is broken” to technical people and expect them to go from there.
I’ve also learned to avoid long dialogues with trolls who show up on this blog which represents something larger, my accepting that there are limits (Saturn) to what I can fix (Virgo).

Saturn In Virgo: “I Don’t Want To Be A Dumb Ass…”
Astrology in real life
I have written about Saturn in Virgo and guarding your mind. It is an individual’s responsibility to discriminate information and maintain the integrity of their thinking. Have your own ideas.
This is separate but related:
When I met the soldier this weekend I brought with me a box of mystery. It was something he’d ordered to help with his stupidity, this is what he said.
The soldier, being a Taurus is susceptible to all sales pitches on Home Shopping Network, so I just stay out it. Sitting in the bathtub he told me he’d noticed he was getting stupider all the time so he was going to try to rectify the situation. “You’ve got to use your brain or you’re going to lose it,” he said. “It’s just like a muscle.”
