my horoscope


I've been weirdly out of sorts the last little while. Rather than go into details, I figured I'd be better off just posting this little bit of apropos astrological interpretation:

Valid during many months: This is a time of extreme inner conflict, which can severely undermine your effectiveness with others. You will become extremely self-critical and uncertain about the ideals by which you structure your life, as well as about the structure itself.

You make very great demands upon yourself, and you feel you must live up to them. But they are very far removed from what you should realistically expect. You will almost certainly fail to live up to these ideals, so you will be acutely disappointed in yourself. Your self-condemnation is unjustified but very convincing at this time.

Guilt, remorse for alleged "past sins," feelings of unfulfilled responsibilities, depression and self doubt are all characteristic of this time. But you must remember that everything seems worse than it really is. Sometimes you have an irrational sense of fear or apprehension, when your world seems to be populated by ghosts that haunt you. Illusion is indistinguishable from reality. Clearly this can be one of the most difficult of all influences.

Actually your ideas about the world are being changed, and the first step is a process of disintegration that leaves you feeling extremely disoriented.

If you can, it would be a good idea to go into some kind of retreat or at least try to minimize the demands of the everyday world for awhile. And as you simplify your life in this way, concentrate on the very concrete aspects of reality. Don't involve yourself in abstractions, for you can become lost in them. Deal with everything on a very mundane, practical level, until your sense of equilibrium begins to return. This is not a particularly good time to study the occult or psychic disciplines unless past study has given you a strong sense of proportion in these matters.

In other news, I'm whisking through Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets at a much faster pace than the first book. Not that it's a better book necessarily... I guess I'm more inspired this time... Also, I really have to run out and get Grand Theft Auto III tomorrow. It's been alarmingly disappearing from shelves.

Hm. Sounds like Pluto. Maybe Neptune? Probably both. Perhaps I should look at your chart and see. Meanwhile, have some chocolate, dear. Lots of it...

Saturn opposing natal Neptune, apparently.

I will. :P

Huh. How ironic--I was so busy dealing with the Pluto transits in my life when Saturn opposed *my* natal Neptune, I never even realized it was in aspect! Golly, and all the time I was blaming Pluto for my misery... Oh, and I finally reached the "SICK score" in Tony Hawk (75,000). And then promptly surpassed it by another 30,000+. Guess I've got it figured out pretty good now. lol! (p.s. Just wait 'til you get to H.P. and the Goblet of Fire, as it has twice as many pages as the other volumes in the series. Let's hope your inspired state remains, it really is worth the reading.)

Whoops, I almost forgot to tell you--check out Cainer's site this week. He's got 2002 up, and wouldn't you know it? We're supposed to join the circus this year. How'd he know I have loads of experience as a clown?
