Well, this was nothing short of hysterically funny...

A fascinating bit of astrological goofyness yesterday.  A heads up:  Right now, Mercury is unaspected.  No contacts whatsoever to anything else in the current chart.  Any time you get one of those in a chart - it acts like its on its own circuit.  You will have issues of integrating that planet into the rest of the whole. 

I was wondering what that might bring to all of us. Well, I found out.

My BlackBerry decided it was going to post on Facebook without me knowing about it (I was at work, and came back and saw all the activity on my page.  (Go to my profile page to see what it was up to). The accompanying responses by many of you were hysterically funny, not to mention the posts my little BB did on its own.  It was like a little baby gurgling on the screen....

This is a great example of Mercury unaspected.  I’m telling you - Mercury is acting like its retrograde, so watch out for this!  Very odd, out of the blue weird stuff with anything that is related to communications..  Imagine a person with this - who could shoot their mouth off, and not know what the heck they said. 

Well, my phone did it. 

As Saturn is NOW direct...:)

... things seem to be moving forward again!  I have been remiss in posting here for a while, but perhaps, like many of you, you've been waiting in the bullpen to see which way all of this was going to flush out.  Since I have Neptune conjoined Saturn in my own chart, I almost have to wait until the tide comes in, before I can see what my next move is.  And it looks like a full length piece on the actor, Rock Hudson.  I've been curious about him for many years, and have read much about him.  Because this is my Saturn return, it would seem almost natural to go back and read his biography again, and I did.  This time, Saturn was reading through my own eyes, and I noticed something I hadn't before.

Rock's life was Saturn-timed, throughout its entirety.  I have some research to do, but it looks like most of his major life events took place during Saturn transits, and events.  Of course, he had Saturn/Sun conjunction in Scorpio, which would emphasize the Saturn connection that his life had.  But the astounding developments in his life - and he had a remarkable one - all happened to coincide when Saturn was doing something significant in his chart.  Stay tuned - as I research this, I'll share more with you all.  My plan, too, is to take a very deep look at his life, through the astrological lens. 

As Saturn gets closer to going direct...

....it feels like time is compressing on itself.  At the very least, I am becoming acutely aware of the minutes and the hours that are passing.  Time has become very vivid...feeling how much I have to relax, to work, to play...The importance of looking at just how valuable our time is, and accordingly, how we must cherish it - and not give it away to just anything.  I am in my 2nd Saturn return now, and I have had less and less free time to wind down after a working week.  I feel I am working hard, and gaining a lot of energy from being productive.  But, I also know, that time off from work is necessary to gain perspective on what is important in my every-day life.  For my Moon in Virgo, which loves nothing more than to work is a** off, there is still a time to relax, and enjoy my strange attempts at perfection.  HA!  New office stuff makes me really happy.

But I digress.  The lessons here for now, seem to be just on how valuable our time is, and are we being paid what we're worth?  A question for future digestion....Comments?

A strange feeling...

...in a few days Saturn is going direct, and my body feels it today.  Tired, worn out, and sluggish.  I took the day off from work, so i could just STOP and rest.  If thats what you're feeling right now, this is normal.  Saturn has a way of reminding us where we're not being attentive to our own needs, and can - and usually does - stop us with some kind of physical or mental issue that cannot be ignored.  I know some of those on the page I have on facebook are experiencing a crisis of choice - making hard choices in their lives, that could have the end effect of ending personal situations that might get in the way of professional advancement.  The choice is likely professional - sometimes God will hand us an opportunity that must be acted upon, and it is up to us to move forward, even if we've got all the reasons why we can't.  You take the fear, doubt and move ahead with courage - knowing that whatever the outcome, you at least know you did it.

Good Morning Saturn!!

For those of you who aren't feeling it - you will be, soon enough.  We've got Mr. Saturn changing direction in nine days, so just about all of you will feel as though the pressure is on.  I was thinking about where I was being "pressed' and perhaps it was to get this blog up and going.  I rarely sit in front of my computer for long, but I did yesterday.  We're always tested on our level of commitment to something - ourselves, our career, life direction - during intense Saturn times.  Given I'm going through my 2nd Saturn return right now, I'm not immune.  I actually LOVE Saturn more than most people, because it comes through my own mind (Mercury/Saturn aspect)- helping me focus and have clarity of thinking - although the moments leading up to that kind of thing can be strugglesome.  In the end, though, I just keep going.. :)

Needs tons of editing...

but I'm on my way.  I am not sure yet how to set up followers, but will get to that ...hopefully you all will be posting on here shortly!
