Wow, no water besides Uranus! Just like my mom, she has no water either.

I've got Libra Mars and Aries North Node too. I'm always curious when I learn of people with the same north node as me. Especially, ones who have already gone through life. Makes me wonder if they ever learned what they had to learn in this lifetime. And if so, whether I could learn from their journey.

My sister's got your dad's sun/moon flipped (sag sun, aqua moon). She's very independent and absolutely needs freedom. Was he the same way?

I noticed in another thread you mentioning your dad passing from cancer. I'm sorry to hear that. I went through treatments for leukemia myself from 20-23, almost didn't make it. It's a cruel disease...

He was fiercely independent and wanted his freedom. He was also a fighter, very strong minded. In a way that made his cancer all the more harder, he felt bad for accepting other peoples help and never let on how much pain he was in. In the end he couldnt walk or even move by himself, for him that was torture. Yet he always said "this wont get me".

I can relate to how he felt. It's almost like you don't feel human anymore. Relying on others just to simply function can get disheartening.

I'm so sorry to hear what you went through...but equally think its a blessing you got through it. It is horrible. I can say my Dad had a lot of karma, he had the air of an old soul. But he struggled his whole life with heroin addiction, was in his younger days was a drug trafficer. So obviously a lot of other peoples lives would have been effected through his actions as well. My mother was heavy into amphetamines and as a result she got Schizophrenia (her chart is intense as well). Hmmm I think if your chart is similar to this, stay away from addictions!
It was very challenging for my twin sister and I growing up, I kinda felt like life wouldnt give us a break and that my identical twin was the one saving grace. Through Linda's books I learnt a lot more about karma and different lives.
I love my parents, my Dad was my best friend, and although I am completely anti-drugs I have come to have compassion and understanding. I hope his next life is easier.

Thanks, I'm very lucky. I certainly learned a lot and can never see life the same way again. Thankfully, my sister saved my life. I'm sorry to hear about your childhood and "not catching a break". At least you had your sister (a twin at that) to go through it together. It's admirable that you and sister didn't fall into the same problems your parents had, I can see a lot of people using that as an excuse. Very inspiring to see your compassion and understanding.

I just wanna say...I really do wish I could give you a hug. I don't think words can really convey how happy or proud I am that you got through cancer. I can empathise from being my Dads carer...but actually being in your shoes I can only surmise. You must be such a strong person now, I could see how hard it was for my dad to see everyone worried about him...and it was challenging for him because he always wanted to keep everyone else happy. Your relationship with your sister also makes me smile! (I get it haha)
But yeah, today I did think about you quite a bit and sent out some little silent happy prayers, cause I do realise how hard it was.

That's very kind of you Alexandra, I really appreciate it. Maybe we were related in a past life? I guess I must be strong, haha. But I couldn't have gotten through it without other people, especially my sister and my mom. Like your dad, I also like to keep everybody happy. Simply not possible all the time though!

You seem like a really beautiful person. I'm sure those close to you are lucky to have you!
