Lunargirl...great to see you back, missed your posts everywhere! Reiki is indeed fascinating, I have a friend who does it professionally, too. It sounds like you are on your way to being quite adept, congratulations.

CS, maybe I misunderstood something in your post, but personally, I believe animals already have a soul. All I have to do is look into their beautiful sentient faces and I know the depths in there. So I'm not sure what you mean by being there so they 'receive a soul' before they die. Perhaps you can clarify...

Sorry things are still rocky with you and your love...if you believe, then all you have to do is keep the faith. Sometimes patience sucks, though, for us Aries girls!

For me, the triple Gemini has returned, I thought things were pretty much over and now he is asking me for another try. I was surprised, but of course pleasantly so. I know you said someone else was around the corner for me...but...I still feel the connection with the Gemini! Interestingly, if you lexi his first and last name, you find my entire first AND last name in his (except for one 'e')! Not only that, you find sentences like (and I'll use trillian to represent me): Trillian is mine, Trillian is the one, Trillian is his soul, Rest in Trillian, I resist her (but) Trillian is mine, Trillian helps me, I cross miles to Trillian, Trillian cross miles to me (we are indeed separated by many miles). So...for what it's worth...

Anyway, CS, Lunargirl is right...for whatever reasons, you can only wait for now and let things unfold as they will. The whole "letting him be the man" thing isn't my personal style, , but if your perceptions are correct about your relationship, then I'm sure you are doing the right thing. Just don't sacrifice too much of yourself, ok? We're warrior women, we can't be happy if we're too restrained and constrained.

I saw a commercial for one of those talk show specials once, a few years ago, they were going to be interview Barbra Streisand and James Brolin, and the interviewer asked "Is this a 50/50 relationship?" And James answered "No, it's 100%/100%" Bless him! I bring this up because DAMN the papparazzi, so the hell what? What's more important to him, YOU, or a damn photograph?? Does he have "____" or raisins, ya know? According to you, he wasn't afraid to use the papparazzi when he was freaked out with two women on his arms. PLEASE DON'T THINK I'M BEING DISRESPECTFUL TO YOU OR HIM OR YOUR RELATIONSHIP. But if you are 'allowing him to be the man' (spoken like a true Aries!), then maybe he needs to step up and BE one.

OK, rant is over, I'll step off the soapbox! You just seem so distressed...and you don't want to move or breathe or do anything that might jeopardize your relationship and I totally understand that...but if you are subjugating yourself or supressing yourself,well, I don't think that's a good idea either. You're a unique individual and I hope he values you.

Hmmmm...well, first, I respectfully disagree with you on the subject of animals souls. By their nature of being, I believe they already have a soul, there is no need to 'earn' one. They are beautiful sentient beings, even those who are wild, or whose behavior doesn't fit what we think it should be. We all have coping mechanisms, there are those wild and free souls among us, too. If I recall correctly, the American Indians believed ALL things have a spirit/soul of sorts, whether living or inanimate. Didn't they call such spirits the Manitou?

Anyway...on to other things...it's not hexigram, it's lexigram. There's an entire forum for lexigramming here in Linda-land, with the rules that are necessary to understand, too. It's best to read it in Linda's Star Signs, though, if you have it.
Oh, and by the way, even though there are only a few of us who post here, there are potentially dozens of others who might be reading this thread, in case you are worried about privacy issues and posting real names.
And if you decide to do a lexigram on someone, it is the most commonly used name that will give you the most valuable information.

I understand what you're saying about the waiting game. If you're not putting your life on hold, or subjugating your personal power, then there is likely no harm in waiting...If you have seen these past lives, have you seen him in any?

The only past life regression I ever had showed me three lives, but I only remember two of those...one in medieval times, the other in appx. the 1940's. Both of which, I was blocked from my 'twin soul.' But you know, that's also where my belief in reincarnation starts to break down...it's such a silly system, to be destined to "pay" for previous lives, of which we have no conscious memory. I just don't think that's what is at the heart of reincarnation...though I do believe some of the premises of reincarnation to have merit.

OK, back to work for me!
Ladies, have a groovy day!

I was reading more of your posts and saw that your Twin is a Virgo Sun with Scorpio Moon. Is this right?

I had a best friend in college who was just that He was awesome. We drifted apart during my Senior year because we were focused on doing projects. He was looking for work, and I was in the midst of choosing what I wanted to do with my life.

He was a Taurus Rising.

Cheers!

I am slow with reading posts, as I just read that Twin and you are having difficulties.

I also read Lunargirl's post about how Earth signs see and feel before they set out to do something, whereas Fire signs believe and know.

My bf is an Earth Sun and Moon, and my Ex is an Earth Moon and Rising.

Both find comfort in material objects and literal vexations. In private (away from people they do not know), they are very open and reveal themsELVES. But I suspect they only do this with the expectation that I do not tell anybody else what they say. An unspoken oath Earth souls depend on.

Hope this helps.

I have just spent over an hour reading, and re-reading this thread. You are all amazing women.

CS . . . thanks for being so patient with me I just sense it. Hehe. I can be slow sometimes in catching the mood of things.

Methinks I know who is your Twin. Yes, this Aries is a curious little bug too.

I am amazed at how hard a life you had with your Ex-husbands CS. And here you are still, with us. Vibrant as ever, and with goals yet!

I am inspired with reading posts from all three of you. Sometimes I forget about being an Aries. (I know, can you believe that?) Cancer is my Rising, with Jupiter in the 1st/2nd houses. Capricorn is my moon sign. I came to realize these combinations make me into a pensive-absent minded professor sometimes. At times a moody-broody goose. So, apologies for being a tad slow with catching up with this great energy.

Lunargirl, you're a fantastic writer by what I have read thus far. And, you give great advice as I've noticed that you listen to people for who they are. What you wrote about skeletons in the closet hit a chord with me. I hadn't read that before writing to you the last e-mail.

Trillian, Hehe I love how you turned the survivor scenario into a winner! I wanted to say that to you for a long, long time. That is a great sense of intuition to have when it comes to creating transformations.

I hope you all have a magnificent Monday

Chat soon,

CS, I would love to see the photo of you, but I think you have to be a member of AOL to view it...is there perhaps another way? There's one of me posted on the Knowflakes site...(the thread is in Free For All).

Aphrodite, you forget you're an Aries??? No matter, that warrioress instinct is always there below the surface! You and I have the same Cappy moon, but your Cancer rising I'm sure makes you far more intuitive (mine is Leo).

Lunargirl, I hope the Reiki is going well, though I do miss your posts! I'm sure it's taking up a lot of your time...I haven't had much time myself, have been concentrating on my search for a literary agent! Wish me luck and a little white light!

CS...I know it's tough. And waiting sucks sucks sucks. But it's time for him to decide what kind of man he is. You know I agree with you, all the bright lights and faithful fans in the world don't equal the power and love of a twin soul. He's had all that, he'll continue to have it, if he wants you in his life he must come and get you. He must take a step or two, even if it's a Bill Murray baby step.

If he's lurking around here, let me say to him: hey, cool movies, loads of talent, but there's this really cool Aries chick who has been cooling her heels, waiting for you because you've indicated that you want her to wait! She's unique and interesting and may be able to add untold dimensions to your life...you took many chances to get where you are today. Isn't the possibility of connecting with a twin soul worth a chance or two? My feeling about her is that in no way does she want to jeopardize your life, she just wants to connect. There's something missing in your life, or you wouldn't be searching the web for it...which is what you're doing, isn't it?

In case you haven't noticed, I carry a soapbox with me everywhere I go!

And Saturn does create ties that bind, A man's saturn on my ascendant or mars is a real pain or love depending on circumstances.
