Thanks for your reply.I've read Robert Hand's explanation to venus conjunct saturn and clearly what you wrote is what I have ahead this next year as venus goes retrograde a couple of times. I also feel as if alot of "house cleaning" will be going on in many levels.I was just wondering if anything profound would happen that week--- like meet my soulmate, get tossed off the edge of the Grand Canyon by the mule I was riding, get bitten by a rattlesnake, or plunder to the bottom of BellRock or something dramatic like that. None of which happened. It was an awesome vacation.I did take alot of physical risks which were definitely worth the views and joys I expereinced.I did meet several extreme new age folks. By that I mean that they were really really into spiritual stuff to the point of not being in touch with reality. Most were clearly former hippies or currently on acid or something. They were very warm and welcoming and a lot of fun--- like you said a big hug. on my birthday, I climbed up to the vortex on bellrock. I parked far away, walked some distance and finally climbed up really high. Three women in there 50's and 60's (clearly in good shape to make that climb) sang native American songs to me when they found out it was my birthday. (They were fun and really wild.)One guy even showed me where one of the vortexes really was. (He was making the moves on me -- but guys old enough to be my father don't appeal to me -- I don't care if saturn is in my 7th house -- I know where to draw the line-- besides he was too "far out" for me.)
My trip to Sedona was to say the least great, enchanting, wonderful. I love that place; I felt a real calling to go there. I did go to Talapaque and that new age shop, but I don't think I got to that woman's shop.
I'll definitely return one day. I'd love to live there - but it's not an economic possiblity at this point in time -- I also like my job and don't want to leave it.
The trip also made me greatly appreciate the freedom that I have to come and go as I please, do what I want when I want - it felt good not to have any limitations. (I also have a greater appreciation for water--it was really hot!)On my birthday, I woke up and my first thought was how I'll never marry and how that's OK. I felt good about coming to that conclusion. I've also realized that my life has had many twists and turns - some seem to lead backwards, but in reality I'm still progressing.

(By the way the only snag to my vacation occured when I returned my rental car - they found several scratches on the bumper that I was unaware of. I'm not sure of how it happened - most likely I scraped it on a rock in one of those off road parking lots. There are alot of rocks every where so that's my best guess. Now I'll most likely be paying out of my pocket or dealing with insurance agencies. UGH! I hope this is resolved soon because they can charge me for days that the vehicle is out of service!!)
