Has anyone noticed, the Moon, Venus & Saturn are currently in Cancer - - while Mercury, Mars & Jupiter is in Virgo?

With Uranus still in Pisces, NN in Taurus and Chiron still in Capricorn, just wondered if anyone can connect any dots here. I think I can... I mean, for starters, there is a predominantly Water & Earth infuence here... All we have in Fire is Sun in Leo, & Pluto in Sag.

And then there's that Singleton (lonely) Air sign of Aquarius in Neptune.

Sombering realizations coming to the surface?

Beautiful illusions playing out on this great stage?

Two fiery Mother Earth hurricanes at the same time? Kind of phallic if you think about it...

.... ummmm....

.... you know - like Water meets Earth (the hurricanes) ...

... some lightening - Sun in Leo ...

... very little Air ... (an unstable hurricane breaking down barriers in existing earth & human relations - Neptune in Aquarius)

The Earth (Capricorn) needing to heal (Chiron). The Earth (Taurus) reidentifying itself (NN).

Our collective emotions (Moon & Venus in Cancer) - being the cause of the rumination of an entire generation of work (Saturn).

Disruption in daily routine (Mercury Retrograde in Virgo). Disruption and/or Mercurial, therefore, changeable direction (Mars in Virgo). Sadness upon passing, rather than optimism. Needing to heal, reassess, and rebuild (Jupiter in Virgo).

Humankind becoming more human once the storm has passed (Uranus in Pisces). Relearning of humanity (Pluto in Sag).


*bing - I give myself an "A"... OK I'm done taking liberties*

I would say illusions are coming to the surface again, and being analyzed with Mercury and Jupiter in Virgo. Neptune in Aqua is really forcing reality checks for a lot of people, especially in non romantic places such as work, and family. Neptune in Aqua is not an overly romantic placement, but it is good for long term planning.

Long term goals are important here, and planning.

That's how what I am hearing, especially with those who have many water/earth placements.

Very little air? No wonder I've been feeling like i'm suffocating!

I don't know what to think about these transits. My life for the past few years has been pretty frustrating and I haven't noticed any sudden shifts recently.. While I'm growing, and recovering from a severe bout of depression, I'll still far from where I want to be or where I think I should be in order to be really happy to any extent with my life. At least I've stopped having suicidal impulses and feel more confident that I really am "emerging" from my depression. It's just my depression made my dependant on my family again, which isn't good right now for everyone. I don't feel quite able to hold down a steady job, so I'm substitute teaching, yet I'm not getting any assignments. So I'm not really working when I need to be. Very frustrating.

So right now I just feel like I'm making progress but still very inhibited and held back by a variety of circumstances: my health, my finances, my family. It's very hard for me to There's been some sober realizations, like once I move out again I'll be on my own completely and unless something fortunate comes my way, I'll be pretty much alone (my mom and bro pretty much resent me and want me to move away - my father's dying - all my friends live 800 miles away). I'm OK with that for the short term, but thinking about that long term gets me down. But mostly, otherwise, it's been tiny steps of progress and huge amount of frustrations.

Gemini - were you affected by Sept 11th in the same way I've described myself being affected by it? Take it easy. I feel I can understand a lot of your frustration in feeing you cannot pull your load the way you'd like. But is it REALLY because of the way YOU'D prefer? Or is there a bit of that family "expectation" thing hovering around somewhere.

It may not take you achieving this obscure goal in order for you to be happy. I'm not trying to deter you or discourage you from reaching for the stars, simply, think about it. Could you be happier lowering your expectations for yourself "just a tad"... and of course, I say this more confidently knowing you are a Gemini (as opposed to a Cappy who won't listen to this)... Sometimes we feel out of place because "if only I were more this or that" kind of thing. I mean, if you had a family member close to you who had good intentions but was struggling a little bit, would you be as hard on THEM? Know what I mean?

Well, my short-term goals aren't obscure. I want to move out and get away from this environment I'm in because it's not healthy. It's just taking an herculean effort to do so. Some days I'm charged up and confident and other days I feel worthless and there's no point. My family isn't healthy for me to be around this much because they extremely negative, pessismistic and resentful, and it's just tears me down. My brother regularly makes fun of me, making viisouc littel jokes at my expenese, even though I have told repeatedly it hurts my feelings and alienates me from him. He regularly calls me a "f*** up" or implies in other ways that I'm useless and a burden (even though he's older than me and has never lived on his own). My brother and mom like to trade jokes about me behind my back, and then tell me how funny it was to laugh at me when I wasn't around. I do need to get away from this and I assure you that is not obscure.

It really doesn't take much to make me happy - I just want to be in an environment that's not oppressive or hostile, where I'm not resented for being happy, which is exactly what my family does. I can't be happy here - any joy I express, my brother is quick to mock it or my mom to criticize it.

I only move back with my parents because I was struggling so bad with depression on my own that I couldn't work and lost my apartment. I was struggling with depression on my own for long because my family doesn't believe I really have depression (even though I was clinically diagnosed *and* it runs in the family): to them I'm a just a selfish brat, a hypochondriac and a whiner. Then they got angry at me because I didn't tell them how bad my financial situation was until I was forced to move out of my apartment.

I didn't want to move here, but really didn't have any other options, except sell all my belongings, work as a cab driver and live out of my car. Now I'm here it's like crawling out of muddy pit. I thought at least if I came here, my family would see that i was really depressed and help at least with paying for therapy and meds. But it didn't work out like that, and after listening to a few month s of them bitching about how expensive my meds were, I went off meds and dealt with my depression "alternatively." I think I've come a long way in recovering from my depression *despite* my family and various other setbacks. It's just that's it one negative thing after another, and I really haven't had much "positive" stuff in my life to balance it out. Every bit of progress seems to take double or triple the effort, and half the time it doesn't seem like it'll payoff (plus I live with people who want to see me fail). Like I said: frustrating. There's just no other word for it.

Gemini -

Wow - my intuition was right on, and because I've gone through the same and have been making huge breakthrough's. Do you live close to Florida? You can crash here at my place for a while. I UNDERSTAND...

I just had this feeling you'd been sold an unrealistic "model" of what you should be, etc. The same with my family. You'll learn to find humor in this, stick with me. For example, to this day, they still think I'll come around to seeing things their way. Hee hee... knowing I'm a f*ck up in their eyes means knowing they'll be waiting for a very loooooong time. Tell your brother not to hold his breath (unless you think he actually would)...
