Have you felt so sad and weary?
When the dream slips away
I could wake up and try
To live in a simple way
Tell me how to start again
And be someone new
It’s a long way back home
When the dream slips away

You lover says you’re a clown
For being a dreamer all day long
You work hard through the midnight
Yet it somehow feels wrong
Tell me how to wake up
Cause the fantasy is long gone
Oh, life it’s so boring
When the dream slips away

It’s a sentimental ride
To the wild and unknown
But reality shows you in time
That dreams don’t come true

The papers pile in my desk
The rent is almost due
I only wait for my night drink
There’s little left to do
The stage breaks in pieces
I see the rain a-coming soon
What’s left to see in my sleep?
When the dream slips away
It’s a long way back home
When the dream slips away

You convey your feelings in a very real way. I just wanted to tell you, if it's of any use, that dreams DO come true, but one needs patience and blind faith because of the seeming obstacles.

I won't quit my dream, but now, for the very first time in my life, I'm doubting of my ability to be a musician, a leader, someone capable of trully being great, and this is about it, it's hard right now, but it's a test, and I'll make it through it.

I think you only need to do that which you love with all your heart in order to succeed, nothing else. You don't need to be "great", you already are. If music is your true heart's desire, you'll surmount every possible obstacle. Patience might be required. It seems to me music should be enjoyed, and so you can derive pleasure from what you do instead of treating it as a test for worth. But that is just my opinion.

Thumbs up on that, Ayelet!!!

LF... You're having transits right now that are DESIGNED to do exactly what you are describing!... cool. I LOVE how people 'prove' astrology without their knowing it. {{hug}}

Chiron H12 on your Ascendant... You have ALREADY done your main homework!! LOL. You made some GREAT adjustments to your musical presentations. I (if I can speak plainly) think your new sound is very palatable. Better than the head-banger, which appeals strongly to a narrow-band of people. You've been able to soften it a bit, and it's a LOT better (to me, if that's worth anything, hahahah).

The chart (for everyone) is harsh. You're not alone.

There's the 'impression' of rolling backwards (like when you're at a redlight in traffic, with cars next to you, and suddenly you get that panic like your car is MOVING?, when it's not?). Hang in there.... It's good. It's ALL good, in its 'designed' way.

Doubts are natural.
You have a Hunger for Greatness, for Excellence...

Like Ayelet was wisely saying...
When you pursue something you truly love, then obstacles can become Creativity
Developers and Enhancers.

And like I wrote you, if something gets too hard, it's okay to put it aside for later. Choose to work on something else that draws you, and sometimes impasses work themselves out.

You'll be surprised in life, how many things you thought were unrelated were ACTUALLY all parts and pieces of the SAME Symphony.

Stay encouraged. Keep yourself well-organized!! Date your work, work with saving scraps of things. Make a GOOD organized system. (You could go back to check one post where I provided vids of archive-keepers who went into the archival systems of known composers who explained, and showed 'how' they wrote their musicals).

Stay in there! ALL is AS it should be.
You're doing a Great Job!

"This TOO shall pass...."

You are just 'reviewing' and being Tested right now. Know this, and be secure. You are making progress.

You grow as a PERSON central, anchored, and foremost, and as an 'artist' because of it. Works together.

The thing I always will remind you of, is to be careful of Scandals... Multiple items in your chart indicate that 'could/might' be prone to those.

Learn how to field and handle those kinds of things. Learn graceful escapes! LOL. Handling embarrassments.

And of course, an ounce of Prevention is always worth a pound of cure!
