Can someone look at my chart and tell me why people always think they can screw me out of money? http://i140.photobucket.com/albums/r1/Cameragirl8369/astro_2gw_01_ji1126360.gif IP: Logged |

Your screen-name holds a clue too..... the connotation is a disadvantage and I'd bet it's holding you back. Why would you give yourself a "label" like that?? What is your attitude?? Are you shy, open, diffident, eager-to-please, a "soft-touch"?? Perhaps you could imagine yourself with big long lion fangs, ready to sink into anyone who tries to get something from you You obviously don't like this facet of your personality. Very well then, you are what you think: You are Wolf -- not Sheep!! Fishies can be slippery, don't commit and give the sharks anything to bite on. Ask yourself, "Is (whatever it is) worth this sum of money??" before you fork over your cash or credit card. Every day, spend a few minutes in front of your mirror. Practice saying "No!!" As a reply to the sharks with smoother manners, practice saying "No Thanks!!"IP: Logged |

Hermes - how do you get karma? I'm a very generous Leo - which I think is why I get screwed - and when I say this I mean , I do freelance work and then people say well, it's not worth this and some other excuse and then don't want to pay me even if I have a contract - they say take me to court as for my screen name , that is more of my romantic personality - in everyday life I am anything but
But romance to me is so confusing lol

Your Moon is exactly conjunct my Venus and NN. Your Venus is conjunct my Asc. My Mercury is conjunct your NN. My Jupiter is conjunct your Asc. My MC is in Pisces. I had this problem when I was younger but I don't anymore. It might have something to do with Pisces/Neptune - and having a lack of boundaries. I know I've put up boundaries in the last couple of years. It's good to be giving and help people but this should be in good measure. If you get to the point where you feel drained, while the other person is obviously scabbing - not because they need the money but because it's easier to scab.. you have to stop. It's not only bad for you. It's bad for them, because they never learn to be responsible and independent. quote: why me?
Simple answer is: You don't say 'NO'. You have to say No sometimes. IP: Logged |

Neptune in the 8th quote: In business matters, you may feel that the primary purpose is the creation of a system that provides for all according to their needs, rather than the accumulation of profit at all costs. Your high ideals in these matters leaves you open to deception by those whose motivations are somewhat less spiritual. In all business and financial matters you will need to take care that everything is open and above board, otherwise you could find your financial resources being dissolved away.
Saturn in the 2nd quote: With Saturn in the 2nd house of your chart, you have a powerful need to earn what you possess through your own efforts. Even if you come into money through luck or inheritance, you will feel a greater sense of satisfaction and self-worth from what you make through hard work. On the other hand, material wealth may be hard to come by for most of your life, and only gained through considerable effort. You will feel insecure when you do not have it, and insecure when you do, feeling then that it may all be snatched away from you.You may have doubts about your own self-worth, feeling that you have to prove yourself through effort, but the position of Saturn in the chart shows where we can turn inner doubts and weakness into strengths. You will eventually gain a sense of inner security and self-worth based on something that is real and tangible since you will have proved yourself to yourself.
Moon in the 2nd quote: The Moon is in the 2nd house of your chart, the area of life where we seek material security. The Moon in this house indicates that past experiences will have resulted in a need for possessions and material wealth in order to feel comfortable and at ease with yourself. The fluctuating nature of the Moon, however, means that your fortunes in this area may be subject to changes and instability. You may have an emotional attachment to the things you own, particularly things that are in some way related to your past or your family. You have probably inherited your sense of values from your family background, particularly from your mother.

Tealogist: You got the points that jumped out at me. I think this is more the neptune in the 8th opposite the moon/sat conj in the 2nd. Also notice neptune(deception in the house of other people's money) square mercury in the 6th, with the 6th being your job, merc being communications. quote: and then don't want to pay me even if I have a contract - they say take me to court
So take them to court. If you have a contract and satisfied it, you will win. Depending on the amount of money, youn can take them to small claims court where you don't need a lawyer.

I have Pisces rising too. I always found it very hard to say no to people. For one, I didn't want to disappoint anyone, and two I was just too naive. I always believed that that everyone was as honest and generous as I am. It took me quite some time to realize that this is simply not the case. Some people set out to screw with others and gain an advantage by using them. I probably will never understand why anyone would do this, but I realized that not everyone is as generous and honest as a Pisces/Leo person (I have no Leo Sun, but a Leo Moon). Even though it goes against our nature, we have to say no sometimes.IP: Logged |

Interesting, I haven't experienced this so much with money but more with my time and doing things for other people. It got ridiculous! Not too many years ago I got sick of it and learned to say no. I'm a Sag rising so I think it's that 'generosity' thing. More recently it's been issues with me lending people money, people using my stuff, and me not getting it back. I think it's a case of my Sag rising energies combining with my grand water trine... I tend to feel sorry for people or feel bad if I don't help. I think I've learned to be more in control of myself now and say "no" though. There's a person I lent $100 to months ago and I haven't gotten it back - but after asking for it back several times already and knowing that he has money issues and owes money to other people too, here comes my soft side again and I've decided not to ask him for it anymore (because I feel bad! ) and chalk it up to experience.

People also have their own agendas , i.e. there might be nothing about you in particular that makes others want to screw you. My experience is that usually people who deceive someone also try to do it with some others. Unfortunately, so many of us have to watch carefully not to be screwed one way or the other, whether it's about money or something else. It's a difficult balance between trust and "healthy" suspicion... And many also learn the hard way, but there's no shame in that. I wish it was different. They say that you teach people how to treat you, but with occasional business contacts that's not always possible. Good luck, though.
