I lost a paying client for the first time recently, and I’m pretty sure it had something to do with me calling him crazy and paranoid…oh, and a victim. This man sent me numerous email rants expressing his disdain for women, I assume due to his own unpleasant experiences. When he referred to us as “beasts” in yet another message, I decided to respond with full-length paragraphs. It was clear that he did not like what I had to say; he replied stating that he would “pass” on his reading. He said that he did not want my “disempowering viewpoints” creeping into his life, and then told me that I could “keep the funds.” Well, I did not want his anti-women-tainted money sitting in my PayPal account, so I returned his payment with blessings.

A person loyal to oneself will be loyal to you and the world.
My ancestry is made up of geniuses, mystics, astrologers, seekers, philosophers and doers who confirm my inherent gifts and talents. I give them credit for everything – from the craft that I practice to the wisdom in my heart. Time spent with my fairy godmother and cousins and sisters and parents always feels like an adventurous voyage to the Holy Grail. I come to know the simple secrets of a life well lived, and that is empowering. As I venture off on my own mono-myth, it becomes my duty to share the teachings of my elders. As you venture off on your own mono-myth, it becomes your duty as well. I am ready to let you go…again. But this time, with acceptance, and for good.
Act III of 2015’s Summer of Love begins with the retrograde of Mercury, which is set to slow to reverse motion this Thursday, September 17th. If Venus stationing direct and aligned with Mars in the sign of Leo sparked passionate interests (or disdain), Mercury retrograde in the relationship sign of Libra (a sign ruled by the planet Venus in Astrology) will see to it that whatever needs completion as a result of such vested interests is finalized. You want closure? Done. You want to ask him out on a date? Done. You need her to accept the terms of a business agreement? Done. But before this magic can unfold, we need a New Moon/Solar Eclipse in the sign of Virgo to help us strategize our plans of action. Thank Goddess that just occurred this past Sunday at around 3:00a.m. EST. Talk about timing… Simple awareness of any perceived flaw is enough. There is no need to dwell on the broken pieces of you.
My natal Venus in the 12th house often makes it difficult for me to show the depths of my love, while natal Saturn in Libra, overall, makes me terribly cautious in matters of the heart. Still, my Moon in the 8th house craves nothing less than a Soul-deep connection, and with Neptune as the ruler of my 7th house; to say that I have a romanticized view of love would be an understatement. I know my astrological make-up like the back of my hand, and so, I know myself. I know what it is that I desire. I know the areas of my life in which I tend to shine. I know where I could stand to improve. I know what triggers my shit. The cosmic climate above will soon reveal to us those passions that reside at the core of our being, pulsing through our veins. In the process, we will have to contend with all the personal muck and insecurities that prevent us from outwardly manifesting the reality of our inner world. |
