how terribly sorry I am to hear your horrible experience,

I am telling you now.
My heart hurts for you.

It is amazing how you can be so generous to share your pain for others to gain insight and awareness.

My mother was a victim of this.
She has no memories that she can recall.
But her older sister and brother do.
Her brother could not deal with it and he took to drinking and passed on in his forties.

My Aunt deteached herself away from the family and moved to another state.
While there, she started seeing a therapist and after many, many sessions it was discovered that my Aunt has Multiple Personality Disorder, so bad, that the therapist was supposedly, with her consent, writing a book about her experiences.
I do not know if it was ever written, as I stated she has disengaged herself from all of the family.

No charges were ever brought.
When things were "discovered" my grandparents abandoned my mom, aunt, and uncle in a house for days, until they were eventually found by another family member.

To exacerbate matters, there is even at least one self-described professional astrologer who, not only has claimed that s/he has every right to post partial, unprofessional, "creative", "imaginative" and biased astrological interpretations here, merely because s/he happens to be a huge fan of the celebrity s/he has been interpreting, but also the ludicrous argument that s/he is much older than someone else is, hence her/his superiority to the other person regarding astrological professionalism or interpretations.

She does have the right to post any sort of astrological interpretation she likes. The only way you can integrate the aspects of an astrological chart is through the imagination. Interpretations of the different complex aspects in a chart aren't available, so one does have to pull all the meanings of the individual aspects together in order to create what could be deemed an "imaginative" or "creative" interpretation. Additionally, it's not unusual around LL for people to have astrological theories. Every theory is just imagination until it's proven true.

Astrological interpretations are based on astrological knowledge

Right...and who has more astrological knowledge, you or Geocosmic?

Intuitive understanding- yes.

Intuitive understanding is fine, but you see that as different and separate from imagination and creativity? So if Geocosmic's reading was intuitive then it's OK? You should go ahead and consider it intuitive then instead of complaining about it because it doesn't coincide with what you want to hear.

I honestly am not a single bit inclined to debate with someone who, three years ago, posted on the old Astrology forum, stating that Mercury opposition Saturn (which happened to be the poster's own natal aspect)= Mercury trine Saturn. That was nonsense.

---

I think you're having another of your poor memories (similar to your equating "and" with GeminiNymph). I don't recall ever stating an opinion that my Mercury opposite Saturn is equal to Mercury trine Saturn.

Once she breaks any of the rules, she has discredited herself.

What rules? And who decided that you were judge that could determine such things? How is it that you came to be the only one to judge her work in the way that you did? Are you the single logical person here?

quote:

---

Your logic is distorted.

This has nothing whatsoever to do with "superiority".

---

My logic is no such thing. YOU have determined GV's interpretation to be greatly immoral somehow, and the only way you could make such an assessment would be if you considered your knowledge superior. It is about superiority.

It's about being neutral, emotionally detached, unbiased, analytical, and impersonal.

You hardly seem neutral, emotionally detached, unbiased, or impersonal. You've obviously considered what you've said (which is exactly the same as what she did), so I'll grant that you're both analytical. Don't be so quick to lable someone who exhibits the traits that you bear yourself.

I say this to you with absolute compassion.

Reading your posts and the mania and panic and fear and anger in them - I just see someone who really needs a lot of love and forgiveness and some person-to-person help. I know falling apart and I know when I see it.

I feel for you because I think you are in tremendous pain. But you can't use the excuse that you have troubles to sh1t on others. Everyone has troubles. I don't believe you are angry at anyone here, but I think you take your anger out on the Knowflakes here. If anything, I think you are angry with yourself. Coming onto the threads and starting arguments is only going to make someone sensitive, hypersensitive.

You really make me think of someone I knew as they were having a breakdown. I feel for you. I'd like to be of help to you, but I don't know how or even sure if you really want it. Anger only eats the person holding it inside them, from inside out.

You know I've been absent for long time in the forum - and just wanted to visit your thread and show some love.
