Watch out for Mars the next 20 days, especially 4/2

[Ricochet21]

Everybody, read the newsletter coming out in a day or two. Mars will enter ARIES WITH URANUS AND JUPITER late at night on the 1st.
Mars will agitate what Uranus is doing. The newsletter maps out the good and bad of this. This is real and is no joke. Nothing to be afraid of, but we must ACT (Mars).

Don't wait for it to pass, because in effect, it never does!

Mars = do what you know you need to do. Hard for non-confrontive people, but you can express Mars in an assertive way that
isn't aggressive.

Watch the planet, you'll see it. Oh, and, Mercury goes Rx tomorrow too.

Hang together everyone! :hi:

[Mnemosyne]

1. You ole' optimist, you! Thank you!

How does this affect legal docs, Rick? I was already impatiently waiting for newsletter... :evilgrin: :hi:

[peacefreak]

2. Merc Rx?

maybe that's why I spaced on a medical appointment & forgot to bring a DVD back to the library. D'oh!:rofl:

[Mnemosyne]

33. I forgot to put the dvd back in the box when I returned it. Must be

something in the air! :rofl:

[Ricochet21]

36. You mean the air at your house?

or outside? :rofl:

[Mnemosyne]

42. Both, mold invasion here bad.

:rofl:

[Ricochet21]

52. oh no

get out!

[Mnemosyne]

54. No where to go yet, but am working on it. No wonder I've been

so ill feeling since I've been here. :(

If it warms soon, I plan on sleeping on the deck until I can make other arrangements. Seriously wide-spread problem in a 1970 trailer; much of my stuff will need to be destroyed. Cleaning house, baby! :evilgrin:.

It's going to get better. I am doing what I need to do now, slow but sure :). Your wisdom and advice have been a blessing. thank you. :hug:

[Ricochet21]

4. I don't know how specific things will work out

what this means is
1) if you have been sitting on something, repressing, not saying anything, it'll probably blowup
2) if you have been trying to work things out, keeping your own best interests in mind but not being egomaniacal about it, it'll probably work out to your benefit.

I don't know how else to say it.
Or, I could make up stuff

:hi:

[MorningGlow]

6. Oh effin' great

I fear I qualify for Option 1. x(

I can see this happening, quite easily. Major cracks in the facade last Saturday--could get really ugly within the timeline you're talking about. Ick ick ick...

[Ricochet21]

9. at least make wittel efforts

it'll help dear

[MorningGlow]

11. Don' wanna

:P

I been done wrong. I's pissed.

[Ricochet21]

14. I mean

make wittel efforts toward liberation
you can do :hi:

[MorningGlow]

19. Oh THAT

Okay, that I can definitely do! :hi:

[Matariki]

18. Haha MorningGlow. We need to start a club!

I feel like a fucking tiger right now. Ninja tiger! Watch out! (not you ;-) )

[MorningGlow]

20. Me too! Raar!

:D

[elleng]

13. Sounds pretty good, as I've been #2-ing forever!!!

[Matariki]

16. Now that's interesting - what about the egomaniacs?

What about folks who have been extremely and increasingly egomaniacal? What do you think things will be like for them?

[Ricochet21]

23. Lower ratings just like

Beck :rofl:

[Matariki]

24. Ha!

:rofl: good call.

[Mnemosyne]

32. I have been diligently following course of action #2.

Thanks Rick, looking forward to newsletter. :)

[kimmerspixelated]

3. IS this the ugliness that you warned about before?

It's weird, because that particular day, I will most likely be confronting said person or let's say... fall into a possible painful discussion, yeah that's it...SO...seeing as I'm TOO nice most of the time....and trying very hard to stay de-stressed, well it sounds like this will be a real tricker-oo, my dear Ricker-roo!!!

Whew! But, Many Grand Thanks, for guiding us all, and OF COURSE, I will read the newsletter! I always look forward to them.. even if they contain bad news..HEhhehheh! I know, I know, There's no such thing as bad news, only news! You think I haven't watched Kung Fu Panda??!!:hi: :popcorn:

[Ricochet21]

5. It's just that us pacifists types

think that life can be all hunky dory. Life and nature are always VIOLENTLY colliding. We avoid that, which isn't so bad, but we often internalize that very battle - not good. You know what I mean.

When Mars catches up with Uranus in Aries... I don't even have to say anything
Wonder how Gaddafi's chart is? :popcorn:

[kimmerspixelated]

7. Teaser! We want you say ANYTHING and Everything!!!

HAHAHa!

On another thread there was talk about the energy in the last few days. And something is definitely happening to me! I have been so extremely tearful. Is the explanation basically that I'm trying to break through...the internal cage???Seriously, I'm not usually SO down in the dumps and hopeless feeling, so I thought that crying was a good thing to get it out!!!... but man this is intense stuff! I literally had to tell myself to BE STRONG! Weird huh, or NOT so weird!!! according to what you're telling us??

[Ricochet21]

10. in the scheme of things

this is a 9 out of 10 for astrological intensity
own it
it is hard
we are powerful
we don't like being shut it
blow it out with love and in the long run you'll be ok, that's my 2 wittel pennies worth

[kimmerspixelated]

40. It's already started..

Looks like a talk will occur this weekend.. and I am already dreading the hell out of it, and I feel like I'm at the top of the roller coaster ride and wondering when I'll ever be even sort of happy again.Dang, it's not been a good day..can you tell?

Need that love blow out, and no this is a 9 3/4 feels like... I thought I owned it last nite, proudly even, today I'm a weak kitten.

[elleng]

21. Hey Rick, I internalize that battle, as pacifist/non-confront type.

So have to adjust to life and nature always violently colliding???

[Ricochet21]

22. I know it's crazy

I think: it's all about the mood of our intention

that's what I have learned

we can't be BASTARDS if we're dealing BASTARDS... I believe that is what Christ meant. I could be wrong. Others?

[elleng]

25. I get that. Thanks

[Mnemosyne]

34. When Mars catches up with Uranus in Aries - sounds painful.

:rofl:

[kimmerspixelated]

41. Thanks, I needed the laugh today!

Whew-boy!

[Mnemosyne]

43. Thank you, thank you. I'll be here all week. Don't order the veal!

:evilgrin:

Very welcome. Hope the day has gotten better, kimmers. :hug::loveya:

[kimmerspixelated]

61. Well, today was much better, thank you!

[Mnemosyne]

67. I am so glad to hear that yesterday was better, kimmers. Sometimes all we can do is get

through one moment at a time, forget an hour or a day. :hug:

And that is no April Fools! :loveya:

[katty]

8. o boy what a trifecta!

[elleng]

12. Thanks, Rick; will work on 'asserting' vs the aggressive scorp.;-(

Hope Merc Rx doesn't get me into trouble; planning to travel soon!!!

[Ricochet21]

15. Forget Merc rx

the bombs are blasting away here, what if mail gets lost for a day or two
you're on the right track dear, good luck

[elleng]

17. Thanks!

:hi:

[findrskeep]

26. I have a feeling we're going to be seeing

MORE over the "top-ness" in various happenings and behavior...more than ever I'll be practicing my "observe, don't absorb" philosophy. Can't wait to see the newsletter! Thanks for the heads up Rick!!

[mysticalchick]

27. Will keep my eyes open and ...

... my wits about me. Returning to day job after two glorious days off feels like I'm going to prison. Time to fly on my own is coming soon! :)

Thanks for the warning, Ric.

And we'll all float on okay - Modest Mouse

I backed my car into a cop car, the other day
Well he just drove off, sometimes life's ok
I ran my mouth off a bit too much, oh what did I say
Well you just laughed it off, it was all ok

And we'll all float on, ok
And we'll all float on, ok
And we'll all float on, ok
And we'll all float on any way, well

A fake Jamaican took every last dime with a scam
It was worth it just to learn some sleight-of-hand
Bad news comes don't you worry even when it lands
Good news will work its way to all them plans
We both got fired on exactly the same day
Well we'll float on good news is on the way

And we'll all float on, ok
And we'll all float on, ok
And we'll all float on, ok
And we'll all float on, alright

Already we'll all float on
No, don't you worry, we'll all float on
Alright, I'm ready, we'll all float on
Alright, don't worry, we'll all float on

Alright alright we'll all float on
Alright already we'll all float on


---->> (sings to all my DU Pals)

Alright don't worry even if things end up a bit too heavy
We'll all float on...alright
Already we'll all float on

[Avalux]

37. One of my favorite songs.....

and I've been listening to it repeatedly over the past few weeks! Because I do have this feeling that no matter what we're going through now, it WILL all be alright. :hi:

[get the red out]

28. Sheesh

I just don't want to fall on the stairs again trying to go let the dog out to pee like I did last night, after a day where I snafued my bosses computer then came back to find mine had gone black screen all on its own simultaneously, and had to deal with the drug store messing up Mom's prescription refills. Weird Monday :(

[Mnemosyne]

44. Hope you are not hurt from that fall, get'tro.

:hug:

I once fell off the toilet while hurrying sit down to pee, from the cats getting in my way. Not a pretty sight! :evilgrin:

[get the red out]

59. Not bad, bruised my arm

Made my "posterior padding" a bit sore. I made a LOT of noise though, scared hubby and the dog.

I can see falling off the toilet and am amazed I haven't yet done that!

[Mnemosyne]

60. My 'padding' has saved my butt many times. I am glad it was more

a loss of dignity; rather than pain for you. Either stink, but one is less painful physically. :)

I even took Beyond Kegal 'lessons' and still have to go when have to go, obstacles be damned! :evilgrin: Menopause is sooo fun! :)

Glad to know you are okay! :hug:

[u4ic]

29. Got fed up with winter here

(spring??? maybe we'll get it in the fall) and booked a 2 week trip starting early next month. It's a big deal for me, as I'm feeling my health is good enough to do this on my own. Will be doing lots of sightseeing and driving longish distances, no sitting by a pool for me. I'm calling it my "Welcome Back to the World" trip. :)

[I Have A Dream]

38. So good to see you, u4ic!

You've been on my mind the last couple of days. :pals:

Watch out World! :bounce:

:loveya:

[u4ic]

69. !!

:bounce: :woohoo: :bounce:

:loveya:

[Mnemosyne]

45. Welcome Back to the World, u4ic! Enjoy that vacation.

It's snowing here, again; after tricking us with 42 degrees today. I actually decided that since it is one of the last ones of this incredibly tough season this year, I do not completely hate it. It does look sort of pretty, now that it's white again and not gray, blech and brown :) :hi:

[I Have A Dream]

47. What a wonderful attitude you have, Mnemosyne!

It snowed here today as well. I was grateful that I hadn't worn my sandals as I had been tempted to do. :D I wear sandals as early in the year and as late in the year as possible.

[Mnemosyne]

53. I wore my sandals yesterday. There was no snow when I started out,

but two hours later when I left my daughter's house, nearly an inch and a half to wade through. I detest socks and shoes, and also wear sandals (loves me some Birkies) until I can't anymore and start wearing them again as soon as it seems possible. Yesterday was a bad call. :rofl:

I think much of how we view our lives is based on how much gratitude and love we have for each other. I hate it when I lose sight of that and whine. My grandma always told me, "No matter how bad it seems, there is always someone worse off." She did forget to mention that having someone be worse off doesn't need to negate your own pain. Must have been the wine. :evilgrin:

I'd hate to be the poor soul that cannot say that anyone is worse off. Logically there has to be a bottom based on the finite number of people. :(

Thanks for the kind words, I try. :loveya::hug:

[I Have A Dream]

63. I really, really, *really* wanted to wear sandals yesterday too!

Tomorrow's April, so maybe... :think:

I agree that it's always good to realize that we are lucky as compared to others, but knowing that doesn't make our suffering not real. We need to be kind to ourselves just as we would to someone else. :hug:

:loveya:

[Mnemosyne]

66. It's snowing here this a.m.; no sandals for me today.

It really does all boil down to one 'rule' - "Be excellent to each other!"; otherwise known as the Golden Rule. I have found a version of it in basically every religion and spiritual path. So simple, yet so hard for some. :grouphug:

I have allowed the suffering and the needs of others to matter more than mine during much of my life. Grandma didn't understand how much I took it to heart as a kid. I've asked for very little from anyone, did not believe I mattered, and it has been exactly what I have gotten. I worry about becoming selfish and self-centered though. :(

I am trying to teach myself to, "Be excellent to myself" :rofl:

Here's to sandals and sandal weather! Hope you get to wear yours today! :loveya:

[Kookaburra]

68. I like your "Bill & Ted" version of the Golden Rule

Use it myself all the time. And it's so true!!! If more people treated each other "excellently" this would be such a nice place to live.

[u4ic]

70. Thanks Mnemosyne!

I will do just that! I can barely contain myself! :bounce:

You've got a great attitude! It's easier to deal with when you know spring is around the corner, isn't it? I'm not a fan of the melting snow look either. I can't even remember what colour my car is anymore...;)

[Shallah Kali]

30. I am making changes

hopefully enough to give the mars/uranus energy a place to go. I hate making changes. I really really hate it but hate being stuck so hopefully me cooperating with it for once will make it go smoother. Don't know what will come of things so trying to just trust the process and flow.

[murielm99]

31. Does this bode well for the people of Wisconsin?

Today, Judge Sumi told the repubs in no uncertain terms that her TRO means that the travesty they are calling a law is not the law. Then, they went out into the hallway and defied her orders. She is going to have to do something, or look weak.

What will Obama do about the budget? I think he has been pushed far enough by the repubs in Congress. He and some other Democrats are going to have to start pushing back much, much more. I can't believe how the Democrats are behaving!

I need to be a little more aggressive about a few things in my life, too. My diet is not working, and I plan to make some changes to it on April 1st. I have backslid on being a non-smoker, and that has to end. I have a medical issue that I am investigating on April 4th. I will do these things. No excuses. But of course, Virgos always "do" something.

[Ricochet21]

35. You cannot tell IF

Mars/Uranus is aggressive energy, it certainly has them stirred up. If they ACT, the odds are greater. If they don't, well...
The other party is the party of the SOUR GRAPES, that is for sure. Dems have to put them in our place.
I'm afraid our leader doesn't have the heart for it though or is in on the payola.

Here's to WI!!!:hi:

[Metta]

39. Thanks for the heads up, Rick.

I'll keep an eye out for it. :hi: :toast:

[Cleita]

46. Hi there.

:hi:

[SCarrington Smith]

48. Yikes!

It doesn't sound too good....I will be in a literary conference all day and out to dinner for my wedding anniversary that night. Lots of communication on a Mercury retrograde with a lot of people who are complete strangers (should I look out for the crazies coming up unexpectedly?!)

Maybe we should all take a long, collective nap until the 3rd...:grouphug:

[I Have A Dream]

49. I think a long, collective nap would do the world...

immeasurable good.

:thumbsup:

[SCarrington Smith]

50. Wouldn't it, though?

I'm game if we decide on it...:-)

:boring:

[I Have A Dream]

51. Seeing that I only got 3 hours of sleep last night...

it gets my vote too!

:boring::boring::boring:

I don't want to sleep; I want to hybernate. :P

[Dora]

55. Thanks, Rick. Trying to tread thoughtfully these days.

Divorce mediation is on Monday, and I'm watching my ex fight and resist what's happening in ways that will only make him fall harder. It pains me, but I have to take care of myself and our son, and trying to be kind/gentle right now isn't helping anyone. I know my ex has to feel the consequences of his actions - the more he does to hurt me, the more he's hurting himself. I feel sad about this, but sad is only a feeling, and feelings will pass.

In the meantime, I have to deal with my procrastination demons. Grrph.

[Ricochet21]

56. Good luck

remember, Mars is hitting him too (pain for not acting)

good luck :hug:

[OneGrassRoot]

57. .....

Just a quick :hug:

:yourock:

[LiberalEsto]

58. I feel like a human punching bag

I've been getting it on all sides from my family for the past few days. What is going on?

Also, two flat tires - one on each car - in 3 days.

[SCarrington Smith]

62. {{{{{LiberalEsto}}}}}

Hang it there....things ARE going to be better. We are just stepping through a mud puddle, and it sure feels like quicksand at time, but it too shall pass. According to many, these are the last pushes before the crowning. :-)

:hug:

[PhillyGurl]

64. OMFG, I have been SO irritable this week!!!

Everything is getting on my LAST friggin nerve, now with MFR, and Mars, etc. I wish I was on vacation on a deserted island. I just want everyone and everything to go away and leave me alone. :mad: :nuke:

[Ricochet21]

65. Who do you feel like letting have it?

Your natal Mars is very strong. Don't let it pass, let someone have it, in someway... even a quiet sentence or two, it doesn't have to be violent, aggressive or even assertive. It means you want to say something to someone being on the cusp of your 7th house.
What could it be?

good luck :scared:
