Like I feel this month has been awful for most people, what is going on? It seems something universal is happening that is affecting everyone and I feel is something dark, people's spirits are low and people are really been challenged, something dark is following humanity around and it needs to get the F out of here and crawl back were it came from now......LEAVE NOW, lets all join forces and ask it to leave!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"(849) ARA, ARAI

The Ara, Arai or Arae are female spirits (daimones) of Curses who are summoned forth from the underworld to attack those who have not followed natures laws. They were largely indistinguishable from the Erinyes. Asteroid Ara would be considered an affliction within a natal chart and those who are cursed in past lives or this lifetime would show were that curse is effected in the chart. Hire a shaman who is a demon slayer and curse breaker to remove any darkness that comes out of the blue. Curses come fast, and that is how you know that they are a curse, everything was fine, and then went bad immediately."

Okay at the time of the eclipse there was a GRAND TRINE between ARA, NESSUS and NORTHNODE. That does not sound like a great grand trine specially when transit Victoria for Victory is forming a KITE with that Grand Trine. Victoria is at the apex of the kite.

On a positive note Transit Angel is conjuncting Ara and is more tightly linked to the kite so there is a protective factor happening it seems.

I've been in touch with S, again, since December 10th. I don't want to say much about that, and we are definitely incompatible with the whole religion thing (on his side), but it's him, and it's our old usual pattern, just for different reasons.

I did start crying again, a little while ago, though. Over the past, over this month (people clearing away their holiday stuff, after celebrating all month, and I'm still not feeling it - now it's just about over). Except for the money issue, we've been really lucky this year. We didn't lose anyone personally, and when we lost a pet, he came back. I have friends who are dealing with the death of a loved one, a few lost jobs, another friend got a much-needed surgery after two years (she lost her foot in an accident two years ago). I was initially worried about money, and might be again next month, but we have too much food here, I feel like I should give some away. But I was just feeling afraid that everything will be different by this time next year.

3 week break from college
2 week break from work
I haven’t smoked a cigarette in four days. Coincidence!?
I checked my grade for class today . An A! I’ve been a straight A student my entire time at this college . How the tables have turned! It’s costs me my sanity, hobbies, and a clean apartment though.

Thank you Aries Eagle. Oh my gosh I take supplements and tinctures at work to deal with my boss when she gets overbearing. Sometimes though I should really take it before I leave my house. I’ve been drinking hot tea a lot lately. Bf kind of got me sick. Peppermint tea and ginger turmeric.

For enjoyment I prefer ice tea. I’ve been picking some up lately. I use to have the free time to brew my own. I’m hoping to get around to it while I have this down time. I also want to buy a new ice tea jug. I bought matcha powder started making smoothies with it but my magic bullet broke.

I had some soup a little while ago, snacked on a handful of peanut M&M's, and I haven't been sick all day or night. My mood is good, I just have a little too much energy (in regards to the late night). Now I'm trying to prep the rest of the ingredients, for the rest of the week, so that I don't have to do as much searching, and can just start juicing.

The weather has been nicer again, too, which helped. Over the weekend, it rained, and I just wanted some hot food. I had hoped for a bath, and to read more of my book, but I need to be up early.

Does your sun fall in the 8th house or rule your 8th house?

I learned that from my Scorpio father.
My mars in the 8th.

Pluto is exactly squaring my sun now. As if Pluto square Sun is not intense enough by itself, Saturn is squaring my Sun too one degree away.

Sorry to hear girl I hope you feel better soon. Time to pamper yourself a little and give yourself some love.

---

I concur, I am also really glad I have MLK off bc I need to detach from my work environment and get some healthy perspective. This month my ego has been a bit sensitive, not strong, but in part is bc I feel ready to grow career wise and push myself to the next level. Is good I feel ready to grow more professionally but a healthy ego will help me go about this in a healthy way.

This long weekend is bringing clarity in how I should proceed. I think once I pass my exam and get my license I will start looking for another job closer to were I live. I want to explore more my leadership side and grow in this area and if current work environment does not support this need, I am not going to get upset and go agaisn't the wave involving the dynamics at work that are established, instead I will get on another wave when the time is right. This job has definitely served its purpose, I got my post graduate supervised hours over a year ago and have grown a lot in my skills here but I feel is time to go somewhere were I can grow more and is closer to home once I get my license.

Ego functions: in psychoanalytic theory, the various activities of the ego, including perception of the external world, self-awareness, problem solving, control of motor functions, adaptation to reality, memory, reconciliation of conflicting impulses and ideas, and regulation of affect. The ego is frequently described as the executive agency of the personality, working in the interest of the reality principle.

Reality principle: in classical psychoanalytic theory, the regulatory mechanism that represents the demands of the external world and requires the individual to forgo or modify instinctual gratification or to postpone it to a more appropriate time. In contrast to the pleasure principle, which is posited to dominate the life of the infant and child and govern the id, or instinctual impulses, the reality principle is posited to govern the ego, which controls impulses and enables people to deal rationally and effectively with the situations of life.

I am going through Transit Pluto conjunct Saturn on 2H cusp..

Transit Saturn on the 2nd house description:

"As with all Saturn transits, at the outset, we might reach out and look for validation from the outside world and from others, and find something lacking in so doing. The initial sense of feeling unsupported can be discouraging (many of us think on the lines of: “I work so hard, and what do I get for all this hard work?”), but as the transit moves forward, you learn to look inside of yourself with a newfound clarity and realism and ideally draw up considerable strength from within. You work on your effectiveness in the world, and see exactly what has been holding you back from achieving the results you want. The challenge here is to capture the newly found and defined self-confidence you gained from the first house transit, and now apply it in the real world."

http://cafeastrology.com/saturntransitinghouses.html

"When Saturn transits the 2nd house you start to spend less time thinking about yourself and who you want to be, and get down to some serious hard work. You want to be productive, to get out into the world and accomplish something real, and maybe even make some money."

"The danger with this transit is that Saturn can make you doubt yourself and your worth, so be careful not to become too critical of yourself. You need to evaluate yourself realistically but there’s no need to be destructive. This transit can help you to gain insights into any wounds to your self-esteem that may still be causing problems for you. It may be painful when Saturn makes you more aware of your flaws and limitations, but it also reveals what you can do to improve."

I invite you to use this thread to help you journal and reflect on your experience so far with Pluto transiting through the houses. Feel free to add updates and make changes as you gain deeper insight.

Here is my experience of Pluto transiting through my 1H:

Okay so Pluto is truly leaving my 1H and conjuncting under 1d my 2H cusp. I have to say its very odd but as Pluto wraps up with my 1H I am noticing some interesting things. Is almost like I can see with clarity everything this transit has taught me. Also I find myself no longer caring about certain things, and key things I use to overvalue I seem to no longer value. Its an interesting time for sure.

During Pluto transiting my 1H I learned a lot about the 7H, this is what is also odd but I had to learn a lot about the 7H to reclaim by 1H as weird as that sounds. Pluto through the 1H was quite the interesting Journey and I feel it going through my 2H will be a super interesting journey too, I am looking forward to transforming my 2H and clearing the clutter there.

During my Pluto transit to the 1H:

1. I overcome my tendency to obsess and over value the person I desire or claim to be in love with and moved towards valuing myself first and more as Pluto conjuncts my 2H cusp, seeking internal validation instead, knowing my worth. This will continue to grow I imagine as transit Pluto navigates through my 2H. I feel is shifting from seeking validation from others through intense romantic relationships to seeking it more in a 2H type of way through my career or starting a business, wanting to achieve and create something tangible. Seeking validation of my worth through growing in my skills and using my skills to create something or advance in my career etc...

2. I overcome issues around jealousy, this was the first thing I conquered during this transit I feel.

3. Super high intense romantic ideals that I have had since I was very little were neutralized, my values are shifting, I don't value romantic love the way I did while transit Pluto traveled through my 1H now that is at the very end of my 1H entering my 2H.

4. My ex-boyfriend no longer has power over me, like I am over him fully. I spent most of this transit still feeling connected to him to some extent although bond got less strong as Pluto progressed through my 1H. Is like now that tr Pluto is entering my 2H the spell has been broken or something. This makes me feel he was very much a plutonic bond and his role was relevant in my life to integrate needed lessons in the context of the 1H/7H AXIS but now that Pluto is entering my 2H his presence or connection is no longer needed and I dont care to see him again. I appreciate he was important in my life but is not something I want to carry with me to my Pluto 2H journey. There is a theme of leaving romantic connections started in the 12H and 1H behind and not wanting to bring it with me to my 2H journey.

-As for my husband I really do love him deeply and feel so comfortable and at home with him and enjoy his company a lot and this is why we have lasted so long in spite of the very limited sex life we have but also a big reason why we are together is 2H/8H stuff so there is a chance that if this 2H/8H axis goes through a transformation that our bond will either grow even stronger or we will separate amicably. Not sure how it will play out but I feel this Pluto transit through my 2H will impact my relationship. I feel transits through any house impacts the whole axis because each axis is connected and linked to one another, one affecting the other.
