We act, and we know what we’re doing, agile and competent–yay!–it’s the thinking, reasoning, the mind that’s off kilter–and this is tough to fathom, since that facility of choice and action (Sun trine Mars) occurs in the most mental of the Air signs, Gemini and Aquarius. The mind, however, is dealing with difficult realities, a loss of optimism or faith, a need to adjust ambitions or with frustrated desires, and it all urges us to push forward anyway, which brings impractical or unwise results (Merc qnx Zeus, sq Ceres, contra-parallel Jupiter, Jupiter sesq Pallas). What’s a seeker to do? Quit fighting with or contradicting Nature–She really does know best, and is an irresistible force, in the end, so accept it, embrace it, call forces greater than you your friend–and realize that the thinking is off because the worldview is. To see ourselves as arbiters of our world is to be full of hubris; do we manifest our world by our thoughts and attention, our investment of energy? Of course–are we then solely responsible for the make up of each little facet of our world? No, and it’s vanity to think so! We are part of a Whole, of something as large as the Cosmos and as small as a quark, but that doesn’t discount the presence of other energies, everywhere, interacting all the time. Step back, take a breathe–the only thing you’re truly responsible for is yourself.

Today’s word image is a dog at the front window, watching his human walk to the car and drive off. Is there someone/ something you’re missing, as you look and feel left behind? Or is it that you’re walking away from someone/ something, not aware of the sadness this is causing?

Hello Julie!
‘take a breath’, good advice for air signs…they can be prickly.
Do you think the moon cusps? If so how many degrees?
Thank-you…love the picture references.
Hi Lucy! No, I don’t go with the idea that any body on the cusp of the next sign is influenced by that sign–that seems to me like sloppy astrology, like the interpreter is trying to have it both ways, like when someone declares, “I’m technically a Libra, but I’m born on the cusp, I’m really much more Scorpio!” No, no you aren’t; it’s likely a misunderstanding of where that Scorpionic energy is coming from. For instance, with Sun late in Libra, it’s highly possible Mercury and/ or Venus is nearby in Scorpio, coloring the mind (Merc) or relationships, finances, and values (Venus), not to mention that whole passel of people alive now with Pluto or Neptune there. What a body or light may react to (and we feel) when located close to a cusp is the sense of imminent change–we’ve all sensed that at some time, right?–and a body in late degrees of a sign is in the throes of resolving its relationship to the sign energy–and that can cause a lot of tension–and with transiting bodies, especially the Moon, this can be fleeting, and barely affect things. Thanks very much, Lucy!

Julie;
Thank-you… your prose really flows and aids in realizations; pluto/cancer people dying off…no returns on neptune either.
Thank you, Lucy. And yes, for most of us, Neptune has a no-return policy! But that doesn’t mean we won’t make it, and beyond 🙂

I didnt see this one yesterday, but on readin it now I had to chuckle a little (to myself) because of discussions I did & didnt have with my adult children, that yes my sensing unseen stuff may be stupid to you & others but in a world that prides itself on the knowledge only solid evidence base of our youth, the facts still need to add up, so what your thinking saying & doing need to add up as do others & if its an interactive equation, as a subset of it, we & they need to be part of the accounting in it, its elementary dear watson…hahaha! Thanks Julie, a delight as ever 🙂
Thanks, Debbie. And for the record, I think anyone here acknowledges that the unseen is just as real (and just as important) as the corporeal–so keep on sensin’!
