edited to add: dear orange -

venusdelionesse apparently can be rude and condescending and anti american to anyone, but if you ever say anything about it, you will most likely be slaughtered by the masses. just an fyi. new user. old lesson. so please ignore slanderous comments, as it has a way of biting you back by responding.

oranges are so wonderful (and the color is most perfect), i just know you will choose a higher road!

No one likes to hear a verdict on their cultural identity that is bound to be insulated and uninformed in the lack of direct personal experiences , and fewer can keep their calm under such instances esp if they happen to have a strong sense of national identity.

Thats my crime, mea culpa.

if someone was bashing my country in the way it was done i'd probably get upset too. The choice of words of Venuslioness was rather unfortunate, but perhaps, next time, before putting down a country that may be dear in the heart of some of its citizens who post on this board, one should think twice, even thrice.

Thank you Belage for being the one person who can get to the spirit of the post rather than dissect it for rudeness or abrasiveness.

The thread for one was not started in GU which makes it a mistake of judgement if not a deliberate attempt to raise such issues in this forum.

Two ,Carl was asking for Astro reasons to explain this pull and members start offering non-astro reasons to explain their own personal repulsions that have ZILCH to do with Astro and NOT in the spirit of this forum - i am not talking about GU here.

Glaucus 's post was not just irrelevant,irrational and ridiculous - he has never lived here for an amount of time to seriously regard his opinions in the first place , let alone have any right to talk like that about what he knows thru Google.

IF he had he would have earned my respect of his opinions that owuld have had ground in reality and no way would i have made the " Cut - the cr@p " comments i made.

Which member here thinks they can know the ground realities of any region via net and more soo possess an authority over its dismissal ??

Glaucus's post is nothing more than an addition to his long list of Victim projections ( Pisces-neptune ) ,that he keeps in any thread no matter how irrelevant it may be to that thread.

In hindsight i now realise that it was not something personal he has against a culture he has never visited, but a Victim - Saviour projection he has always thrown in every thread.He even left this site a few years ago after someone else called his nonsense on such projections in a thread that had nothing to do with any culture.

Nevertheless , nothing i said was unwarranted in any sense - what he said was not just rude but even ridiculous - given his knowledge is an Internet PHD not grounded in reality and the dynamics that he doesnt know of.

I didn't think that anybody was bashing India.

Lucia was making a point that not everybody shares the same views as Carl in regards to India. She made good points about the Eueopean and American perspective.

I pointed out there is a serious human/equal rights issues in India in regards to the Untouchables aka Dalits. It's not like I read about this stuff in National Enquirer either.

I am rather indifferent in regards to India. I neither like it or dislike it.

I certainly didn't come from an American jingoist perspective because I can easily point out flaws in USA. I have done in the past,and I got slammed by conservatives on this forum. I rather live in my home country than in India because I don't want to deal with the Untouchables situation over there. I don't want to be around it. I'd get very angry. I might end up being treated as an Untouchable myself.

to be fair to venusdeindia, I haven't really seen her be anti-American. it's more about her being conservative from the stuff that I have read. There are some conservatives that would think some of us liberals are Anti-Americans without really know anything about us.

I can play the devil's advocate. I can see both sides to a situation. I will make points about something even though it's not something that I am attached to.

we all have our different views.

Carl expressed his, and so Lucia and I are expressed ours.

I am not going to get into the "I am right,and others' are wrong" That's one of the negatives about the Eris energy. I think that it's best that we acknowledge that we all have our own views and that we should agree to disagree and not call people stupid,delusional,or other names because we don't agree. That's always a problem on our planet. I am starting to realize more and more that my strong Eris energy with Sun conjunct South Eris Node in Scorpio can lead me to be seen as highly controversial,stirring stuff,divisive if I show too much emotion,passion and intensity in expressing my views. Therefore, I am trying to do my best not to get upset if people have their own opinions that might seem to offend me. I try not to upset others. A lot of times, my own passion and intensity can be misunderstood too. I admit there is a fine line between my passion/intensity and my being angry about something. I am sorting that out.

I am sorry that this forum is not moderated so that members who use that kind of hate language are banned. Then again, I'm even sadder that there are people out there who think that way and would feel comfortable using a term like that...and that there are others who believe that such a thing is acceptable.

neither does YOUR condescension erase the fact that it firstly it is NOT your business to derail a thread by talking about things irreelevant to the topic.

No one died and appointed you the moral judge with powers transcending the topic being discussed and the sentiments of those you deem your are fit to put in their place.

When entering a discussion ,one who talks about a matter irrelevant to it is the one a shrink would say the " Projector " of his own weak Ego into the discussion ,who hopes to earn a little intellectual respect ( energy for the Ego ) by raising points he thinks are more important than what " others " are discussing.

When Carl asked about what astrological aspects can indicate the aura associated with India you give your own personal reasons why your high and mighty compass stops you from coming here .

Now THAT is called having a whacked - out Ego

You make something about yourself and your high and mighty morals when it isn't.

Lack of OBJECTIVITY

a.k.a - No anchor in ground reality whatsoever in addition to being letting your ego decipher what you read so as to serve its own purpose of feeding itself.

And also because the " others " who are discussing a topic -

to this " Whacked - out - Ego creature " are NOBODIES who CANNOT possibly know as much as him or have a moral compass of their own, better yet have a right to it.

You identify with the worst possible victims and PROJECT that into every discussion, even when irrelevant to it and covertly imply that a lack of everyone else shouting it from the rooftops or accepting it as a part of life makes them ALL the " Bad guy " and you the " Good Guy "

Man you are still stuck with your unresolved Oedipal dynamics to be still painting the world in Black and White extremes..

The fact that YOU believe the earth is flat automatically makes it so.

the fact that you believe that a country is sick because ,someone has some whacked out reason to find someone else uncool.

Perfect Logic.

If its okay for most of my american friends to lovingly call me their " Wetback girl " while i refer to them as my Yankee doodle - budds ..i reckon forum members are strong enough to face such trysts with insensitivity.

I strongly disagree with the stuff that you said.

you don't know me.

like you, I have my opinions,views,and beliefs. Everybody else does too.

therefore, I expressed mine and so did Lucia...so did other people. We have the freedom to do that.

Just because we expressed views that don't concur with what you believe doesn't really warrant any attacks on us and getting rude and nasty.

all I did was point out the Untouchable/Dalit issues in India, and I don't want to be around that type of stuff. I think that people can point out the bad stuff too and not just the good stuff.

I also expressed my view that I don't believe India is any more spiritual,mystical,enlightened than any other country. I stick by that view. It has nothing to do moral superiority or whatever else you accuse me of. It has to do with my belief in the equality of all countries and their potential. I feel that same about human beings in general. Of course, there Untouchable/Dalit situation factors into my belief too. It cannot be ignored. I think it has to be taken into consideration. Like I said, I think the good and bad stuff should be taken into consideration.

I don't see how any of that has to do with whacked out ego and oedipal problems.

I never thought that I was better than anybody nor superior in any type of way either. Just because I have views that differ from yours doesn't mean that I believe that nor does it mean that I have ego and oedipal issues. It doesn't mean that I am stupid nor ignorant either.

I believe that everybody is created equal. I believe that all of us remain equal...no matter what a person does. Just because a person does a lot of good compared to another person who does a lot of bad doesn't mean that the person is superior to the person. As human beings/homosapiens,we are equal. I would think that it would be a bad ego thing to believe one is superior because a person has better morals and ethics. That's the type of self righteous thinking that can lead people to take the law in their own hands and be vigilantes or condemn people (they are going to hell) for not being like them. Of course, I feel the same way about people who are well-abled,highly intelligent who think that they are superior to people that are handicapped. I believe that all of us were born with a purpose. I believe that we are all special in our own way. I obviously don't believe in eugenics either.

I believe in diversity,but I also believe in tolerance and acceptable of diversity as well as that diversity and equality co-exist and do not exclude each other. I don't think that we should be calling each other names,attacking, and calling people ignorant,stupid,or other things just because we have views that are divergent from each other. That's some serious Eris problems that we have going on our planet.

Dr. Michael E. Brown, a professor of planetary astronomy at the California Institute of Technology who discovered the distant ball of ice and rock that he nicknamed Xena and that had been designated 2003 UB313, chose the name Eris, after the goddess of discord and strife in Greek mythology.

“It is absolutely the perfect name,” Brown said, given the continuing discord among astronomers and the public over whether Pluto should have retained its planetary status.

In mythology, Eris ignited discord that led to the Trojan War.

“She causes strife by causing arguments among men, by making them think their opinions are right and everyone else’s is wrong,” Brown said. “It really is just perfect.”
http://tech.mit.edu/V126/N38/38shorts2.html

that's my belief. It doesn't mean that I think that I am right or wrong.

I believe that it's all relative imho.

look at how many religions,faiths,spiritual traditions that we have on our planet.
a lot of diversity. it doesn't have to be one is true and all the other are false. They all can be true or they can all be false or they can have be both true and false in certain ways. That can be all based on perception that is relative.

Everything that I said actually are connected to my Unity,New Thought religious/spiritual beliefs which I don't believe are necessarily right nor wrong. Of course, I don't expect others to believe the same as I do. I like diversity when it comes to religion,spirituality,ideology. I don't see that as a problem. It's the intolerance of diversity and the discord that results from it that I see is a problem

I will agree to disagree and leave it at that.

that doesn't necessarily make them true.

Had you two actually lived here for a while i would NEVER have discounted your " views "

Also something you should have learnt as a kid -

Your " Views " do NOT a FACT make but were you to imply it a FACT that would make you a FRAUD.

so Glaucus , you and i are NOT EQUALS.

If we were we wouldn't have such unequal lives would we ?

By stressing your own unrealistic beliefs that everyone is equal what you are trying to do is divide every member into Black and white depending on whether they agree with you.

You have done this every time in thread after thread and i have chosen not to indulge your Ego but you crossed a line when you chose to believe your personal prejudices about my motherland are FACTS rather than opinions and declared it as such.

Yes, you DO have the right to express your views.

With that right comes the responsibility of making sure your views are NOT offensive to the sentiments of others.

If they are so , it is your responsibility to make sure they have ground in REALITY not in your Personal Insulated Reality

You also are responsible by default for anything you express and will be held accountable for it - in any SANE setting.

If you cannot be responsible and express views that are respectful or logical do everyone a favor at the cost of your deluded Ego and SHUT UP.

Who said in this thread that I or anyone else has issues with your Self-expression.

It is the errors in your self -expression that you are being HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR.

Calling THAT an " ATTACK" does NOT constitute PROOF of an ATTACK.

I too find Egypt to have more mystqiue for me but the problem is I know India in and out, hence I dont find it so mysterious.

Lexically, India is the country with the smallest amount of letters and yet having DNA in them. INDIA = 12 numerologically, equal to the 12 signs of the Zodiac.

the 4 letters in India are A, D, I, N

The word NADI is formed with these letters meaning "Psychic Nerve", one through which Kundalini Energy and Chi Energy travels.

Notice that China has CHI in it, and India has NADI in it. And these two countries hold more than half of the world's healthy populace. These two could be the Root Chakra and Navel Chakra of Earth.

India may have several astrological cycles, there is no one size fits all natal chart for it. I had already given 3 dates. Marjorie Orr detected many earthquakes and the Tsunami with the 1877 chart, many elections have been predicted on the 26th Jan 1950 chart, and so on.

21st April 1526 can also be used to check India's destiny as this was when the first Mughal emperor captured India.

This Draconic has a Mystic Sabian for the Sun in 13.3 Cancer: "A Very Old Man Facing A Vast Dark Space To The Northeast". The Soul of India or a Rishi ?
This natal also gives Dr Asc conj Dr ANGEL conj Dr OSIRIS in Pisces, proof of the Old Indian Soul...

I apologize, but I will ignore all the posts about bashing or not bashing.

I still have the hope that we can make this an astrological thread again (I understand everyone who wants to defend themselves, but I really fear, that one word will lead to another, until it`s all just shouting and insulting; I don`t want to get pulled into this - just an explantion for why I won`t reply to these things).

Venus,

Roma on the SN? Do you think you`ve had a past life in Rome?

ROMA (and the babylonian city UR) is conjunct my MOON and trines my KARMA

DIANA conjuncts my HERMES on 14-15 Capricorn
DIANA / HERMES also trine SPHINX

OVIDIUS conjunct MC and PLUTO (and also TRANSYLVANIA) and is exactly sextile ASC and exactly trines DRACO MOON and squares Venus.
OVIDIUS also conjuncts my DR KARMA.

I am a Latin teacher and I have often wondered why it was so easy for me to speak Latin, not necessarily the literary form, but I think I am the only teacher at our school, who really talks Latin with her pupils (I give the translation later, of cousre). It just has felt so natural speaking Latin from the first day I came across this language.
And sometimes when I tell my pupils something about Rome or about what happened, it feels like I am getting that knowledge from somewhere deeper than mere memory of my studies.
I think and have always thought so, that if I have had a past life in Rome, it was during the Ovidian time, when Augustus reigned.

AUGUSTA conjuncts my DR DNA And trines my PLUTO.
OCTAVIA conjuncts NILUS, which makes sense at least to me. During the first century the ISIS cult was very strong in Rome.
And it just felt so familiar, since ever I heard about the ISIS cult for the first time, when reading that book by Apuleius, in which also a description of the Eros-Psyche-story was. It all is connected I guess.

BTW OVIDIUS squares ISIS, and APULEIUS conjuncts my URANUS and UNION and REGINA (Queen) and opposes my DR ISIS.
CLAUDIUS - my favourite emperor- is conjunct
ROMULUS, the founder of Rome, in Leo nevertheless and trines KLEOPATRA and CAESAR on my SUN and also trine CHIRON in Aries.

NILUS is on 13-14 Libra on the exact degree of my APHRODITE and opposes my PART of REINCARNATION exactly; it also opposes my GIZA on 10 Aries, quinkunx my SPHINX on 13 Taurus, trines my IMHOTEP on 11 GEmini (on my SN, haha) and squares my TUTENCHAMUN on 13 Cancer.
Hmm, that is interesting.

Sorry, I got a bit carried away with the Roman asteroids.

posted June 24, 2009 01:04 PM         

well, the latin studies were tough, much to learn. But certain things really came easy to me, especially the history, mythology and some vocabulary.

But yes I was a bit surprised, too, about the strong aspects to these asteroids.
