For those of you on your phones, Gabby and Gemini Blues, I truly feel for you. I may post a line or two from my phone, but I can't do more. That whole 'hit quote when you want to hit edit' thing? Happens to me all the time.

Gemini Blues, I have Mercury sq. Uranus too. Do you think it causes distraction? oh, and do you think you could bump up your Love Songs by Sign thread?

It doesn't cause distraction, in part because I also have Saturn opp Uranus. Rather, I can get stuck there and need distraction to break the deadlock.

Thread bumped. Please enjoy!

I only really edit when I remember something relevant or if I think my post sounded weird... or awkward... or something. Not often, but not uncommon either.

Well Aries23Degrees, although I am greedy for every thought that passes through your brilliant mind, I will trust your gut. It's good to be positive you want to share. Sometimes I'm not positive, or I don't have anything of substance to contribute, but I just can't help myself.

Lilting, it's so funny you say that. I'm also worried people will see my edits. More so when I am clarifying or adjusting ideas than correcting grammar or spelling...

Yeah PixieJane. Something about the way that you communicate that is profound and also unnerving, and yes, exciting. You have me laughing because I'm nervous, surprised, and because you're just plain funny. I'd get a full sense of you if I could hear your voice, and how you deliver. One day technology is going to get us there. It would be awesome to communicate on LL and be able to hear each other!


Belba, you'd find it even funnier that I think of you as James Dean in this aspect if I told you some of the crazy things I've done in my life. But I'm not lying. You're a posting rebel without a cause...but with a cause...

Think mercury opp Pluto is related because it's like mumbling in speech, hiding in communication

Merc opp Pluto
Merc trine Neptune, Saturn, mars
Merc inconjunct uranus



I'm so intrigued. I wonder what would happen if you just let yourself go free- like write 3 or 4 paragraphs without editing...I think for me, your thought flow would be worth any errors.

Lol, Barbie! So sorry about the phone. I don't know how you do it. You must have dainty little fingers or something. Moon conjunct Mercury. That's sounds nice, but I have no idea about it. What is it like?

Hi CupODavid. Yeah this thread is fun. I have some base pleasures, and so I'm surprised at how much I'm enjoying reading about everyone's thought process and how astrology plays into it. I am learning too, since I don't know much about astrology.

I did notice how very neat your comment is. It is nicely spaced, and each line goes out just a little further than the one before. It's really very pretty, as far as comments go- lol. I send and receive too many work related emails in one day. Sometimes I look at an email sent to me by a co-worker. I don't read it. I just look at the "structure" of it. Ugh- just unpleasant. I try to remember what I did to them to make them want to torture me by making me read their ugly email.

But maybe they're like me. I can't make myself slow down enough to do more than make spaces between lines...

Edited: Not edited. I want to edit, but I can't find where I want to put my commas so I'm leaving it...

...wait. That's an edit. 2 edits

Oh, and CupODavid, I looked at your chart. It's really interesting. You have a lot of planets in Capricorn, and then Pluto and Moon in Scorpio, and then an Aquarius Sun! It might be a silly question to ask, but how would you describe yourself?

Thanks Venus!

In a few words, I usually write that I'm a silly, small-city boy with (Notorious) B.I.G. dreams; but I'm also creative, honest, depressive, secretive, and an extroverted introvert. (It's as if the extrovert comes before the semi-colon, and the introvert comes after it.)

Though, I feel like that paragraph doesn't do my personality justice because I know that I have many layers and can be quite difficult to figure out -- even for me.

My Libra Sun indecisiveness and Virgo ASC made me edit my post above 4 times because I was wondering whether to add an exclamation mark before the smiley...

BUT, in some of my longer posts, my Libra laziness makes me leave it as it is.

EDIT : Come to think of it, the exclamation mark looked better...

... Edited 5 times.

I edit frequently for two reasons.

Neatness and additions.

I don't plan so I end up adding things afterwards.

My Virgo south node is becoming more apparent lately

Hi CupODavid

LOL @ "(Notorious) B.I.G. dreams"

If I told you how long I contemplated this, "It's as if the extrovert comes before the semi-colon, and the introvert comes after it"...

But I get it. It's a good way of saying it. My friend calls me an omnivert, but I like extroverted introvert. I put myself out there, but all the fireworks are really still on the inside. I personally am happiest at home, and I am most comfortable with one on one interactions. I can't really focus in large groups. I get too distracted by all of the vibes and activity to bring my real intuition and focus, so I just do the life of the party thing, or the life of the meeting thing

You did a good job describing yourself. As I read, I really thought, 'yeah, me too'

I also think you're an artist...

I normally edit once at most. Most of the editing to be honest comes when I am typing the post. After finishing what I think I want to submit for a post, I reread it a few times and then make edits. I won't submit it until I am fully satisfied with what I said.

So yeah, having a Cap stellium makes me a little anal.

lol- I think you made the right choice with the exclamation mark. I tried to imagine it without, and it just wasn't the same LOL!!!

although Libra may make you indecisive, at least it allows you to be lazy too. I agonize over things like exclamation points all the time. What a waste of time. I could be saving the world!

Hey Koho,

Well your editing is working for you. I enjoy reading Koho. I also like how you refer to yourself in the 3rd person in some of your posts- lol. Now don't stop because I mentioned it...

Virgo SN, huh? So Pisces is your NN? It's the other way around for me, so we're like strangers passing in the eternal night.

Omg! You are the first person to say you are serious about proof reading in the little white box before submitting. I knew there was some serious Cap going on before I even got to the last line, lol. It's a pleasure to meet you

lol @ "9000"

Multiple languages? You are forgiven. People who speak multiple languages are brilliant in my book. Not only because they learned new languages, but also because with each language, you are exposed to expansion in thought (not sure how else to put it...maybe if I had another language at my disposal...). For example, in English we have one word for love. It's love . We use that word to describe our love for our mother when she bakes us apple pie, and also for our obssession as he affects the body with just a look...but in Arabic there are 60 words meaning love. A word for passionate love (and when you say it you push out all your breath, as if to lose your breath), a word for deep spiritual love, parental, protective love...

Yeah. I can understand how you would be electrified.

I edit a lot and would edit more except my 3H Pluto is paranoid that someone is watching. O_o

I have this t-square:

0 Leo Saturn (as in, "You best write perfectly, your ego is on the line!")
6 Scorpio Uranus (don't even want to go there)
5 Aqua Mercury (crazy ~ but wants to socialize)

Mercury tries its hardest to please Saturn despite sicko Uranus throwing it off all the time, finally Mercury thinks "Okay...I'll hit submit...this is good" and then Saturn comes (too late) and disapproves.

ETA: Please don't quote

I know what you mean about someone catching your edit. That's just one thing I am not going to be able to help. I actually have a post that is in editing status right now, like I've stated this has been edited and will continue to be edited. It just can't be helped.

Hey Uranus in Scorpio is awesomeness. Uranus is exalted in Scorpio. I think Mercury in Aquarius is very cool too. Is there an aspect between Mercury and Uranus, like a square? I know you read the first article I posted on that Uranus thread. You should really read the second one.
I think you in particular might find it interesting.

About getting caught editing

PixieJane is so cool, she says she waits a few minutes before reading someone's post in case they will need to edit. I think it was PixieJane who said that...

Please unquote me? You caught my edit!

Edit: Oh neat we were writing at the same time. I added the degrees before my placements so you could see how unstable I am (tight Mercury-Uranus square) and gauge how old I am, too!

I will check out that article, thanks ~ my brain is seriously frizzlin out, as it's 2 am here.
