I have had over 15 jobs. The longest one I have kept was for one year at a car dealership. Ever since I left and began my path as an entertainer I have had many ups and downs. I have always had a problem with stability, the ONLY thing I want to do is rock. I physically and mentally cannot continue to subject myself to the evils of the corporate system. There's not a day that goes by where I don't fathom about such a sinful and misguided society. I know their are good people out there but my upbringing has made me jaded, I have trust issues and my parents are pretty much nonexistent. I don't have a legitimate support system since I'm the only kid. It's hard for me to play by the rules... (School, Work for the rest of your life, start a family, hold a place for the rest of your life..) the status quo simply does not appeal to me. Life has to be more than that. But since I have all this pent up aggression and angst it makes me hard to hold a job or a relationship. I honestly don't want to get married. Everything in our wold feels either forced or fake and nobody NOT everybody has true goals or dreams in life. They are content with being comfortable. What makes me mad is that so many people are scared to be themselves, and never step out their bubble.. I get bored to easily.

Pluto is in my First in Sagittarius. As it progresses it gets closer and closer to my ascendant, which is natally in Scorpio. I see the world for what it is and have a hard time coping with it, I am not really afraid of much. My energy is incredibly intense and it can be either really good or really bad at times. Everything I do is exaggerated because of this. You can look in my eyes and know I am not to be ****** with. I move slow and think fast. It is also weird but I seem to have this energy that magnetize people to me, others seem to copy my style (I am not joking) and when I get close with people they tend to stalk or obsess over me. This is another reason why I can't hold a job because I always stick out, people always notice me, want to talk to me, and I just want my ******* space.

I am grateful for my friends but it sucks that the more I want to be left alone the more people want a piece of me. Less is truly more with Pluto Rising. I get what I want with a few words. I wish I was more social but when I am people start getting creepy with me. I've had missing person report filed on me for simply not responding for a few days. Sometimes I literally feel I am "too cool". I would like to be stable and financially happy one day in entertainment but signs have already pointed that I probably wouldn't get ANY sort of privacy. I could care less if you think I'm complaining but I am just so tired. I don't always want to be seen as a leader, I don't always want attention, I like doing my own thing. Sometimes I feel people don't care for me but it's more people just see me as an emotionally well off person. When I truly try to open up to someone new they think I'm manipulating them or flirting. I just can't win either way. Pluto Rising with Scorpio Rising is a freaking nightmare. I have to fight just to survive in this life. I am so confused and just don't know where I want to go. People **** me off, but I love them at the same time, i need space but also want a relationship, I am constantly bored with routines. I have severe ADD and have taken medication for it but I've been off it for a while. It's not healthy and it makes me feel fake to the true me. I shouldn't have to stay still if I don't want to. I shouldn't have to subject myself to a superficial culture just to be normal.

Some things to point out I have Uranus in 6th transit, Aqua Moon and Mercury and Venus conjunct both Neptune and Uranus, Sun in Pisces. Hopefully this sheds light to why I have the problems I do. My life has been exciting but dreadful at the same time. I am about ready to go live in the wilderness and eat berries and play guitar for the rest of my life at this rate.

I think you hit the nail on the head with your pluto rising. Aqua moon is also a culprit. It's definitely a rebel moon who doesn't want to conform to societal expectations.

I attempted to be friends with a guy with your placements (pluto rising, aqua moon, water sign sun). Although he said he wanted to be friends, his actions did not match up. I know when someone is lying to me and he would make stuff up to avoid me. I'm not desperate for friends and called him out on his behavior: I told him if he didn't want to be friends, that was absolutely fine. I would cut off all contact with him immediately. He then threw a temper tantrum. Smh. I didn't care. I cut him out of my life immediately.

The point I'm making is I notice people with these placements seem to have problems with communicating. I'm a loner type, too, so I understand needing your own space. The key is to directly state this need to your friends. Just say something like "Hey, sometimes I need space. It has nothing to do with you. You've done nothing to upset me. I just need time every now and then to recharge. I'll call you in a couple of weeks."

That's all you have to do. A decent friend will understand and back off. This will spare you and your friends a lot of confusion and misunderstanding.

In terms of jobs, you have to understand one thing: except for a select few, most people do not like to work. We work so we can survive and hopefully have some money saved for retirement when we are too old to work. Life often requires us to do thing we don't want to do. The key is to find a job you can tolerate. Accept the fact that work is rarely fun and you will be able to hold down a job more easily. I know it's hard, but it is critical to find a job that allows you to make enough money to support whatever lifestyle you desire. Good luck!

^That's essentially it.


Throughout reading your post, something that stuck out to me is that you need to learn to force yourself to be more committed, more responsible, more resolute and accountable. You are aware of your issues, and you have these placements so that you can learn to overcome them.

Another I knew with Sagi and Aqua, felt the same about the world. He was told he needed to get his act together - but he claimed, quite childishly "you don't understand me! you don't understand how I feel!" (this was a 29 year old man, not a teen, even). He just wanted to have fun, then do drugs and escape.

I did warn him, that if he did not change, something horrible would happen to him. We need to balance our joy with suffering, and to wish to never suffer is quite a delusional wish. "If we don't face life, life will face us", yadda yadda. And, well, something bad eventually did happen. His dad died, he lost all his money, and many of his friends abandoned him.

A lot of people despise life, despise the system, and are lucky if they at least find a semi tolerable job.

The way you feel is understandable.

quote:

What are your true goals and dreams? Are you working toward them? If so, what makes them so special?

quote:

This is a boundary issue, one you must learn to rectify. At least you notice the issues, which is a start. It's about learning to make sure that it is clear, in as mature a way as possible, that you do not wish to be approached. We cannot expect people to change for us, but we can learn to adapt. What are you doing that is making people do this, and what could you alter? You don't have to answer me, but is a question for you personally.

If you really want to be your true, authentic self 100%, then you have to be ready to take responsibility for the consequences. However, some things must be subdued or used at different times. This is self mastery.

quote:
When I truly try to open up to someone new they think I'm manipulating them or flirting.

Are you sure that you aren't? I'm not saying that you are, but it is another question to ask yourself.

We sometimes mislabel our own intentions, or actions, or behavior. I've got one example for you. One guy I knew, he would go on and on about how he thought he was autistic. He thought his "autism" was the reason he had difficulty understanding people. I knew he was not autistic. One day he literally went in for a legit test, and came out and he was not autistic.

His issue was actually that he lacked compassion and experience, but was able to learn about people and understand their feelings more, gradually, with his own experiences. We can even misunderstand ourselves, and be so convinced we're right. I'm not saying this absolutely has to apply to you, but it's something to mull over. We can't see what we can't see, after all.

The point of that is, that we can think we are something that we are not, and think that we are not something that we are. We can misjudge our own character.


Another example, is another man I know. He never, ever, ever imagined, or even knew just how manipulative he was. His angle was always about him being the victim of the manipulations and issues of others. He was heavy Pluto, and a Pluto dom chart. He would go through life feeling like the cursed victim of everyone, and complain later when a relationship or friendship ended, that they were just trying to manipulate him. He really did not know his own depth of manipulation. It was hidden from him. And when people would tell him he was being manipulative, he would come up with a barrage of excuses, narratives, and if you tried to poke his deluded bubble of not being manipulative, he would actually become a nasty, horrible person. Meanwhile, convinced of his innocence.

That other example above is simply to illustrate yet again that there can be things about us that we really are ignorant of, and maybe there's something to be said about repeated feedback and experiences. Life will only give us gentler reminders so many times before it begins to push back even harder.

If you want, what you could do, is write a message to the universe, a sincere message. Get a pen and some paper and write. Ask questions. Ask "what do I need in order to live a better, more authentic, fulfilling life." or Play around with that however you want, write whatever questions you want answered, an be prepared to pay attention to possible answers via experiences, or clues that show up. or "teach me what I need to know in order to live a financially secure life."

I hope you find what you need.

Might sound stupid but "the ONLY thing I want to do is rock." Maybe you can teach people how to?

Many people in entertainment also teach there craft?

make your own job

working for other people does suck and I feel like a lot of people do it out of complacency and low expectations for myself.

I quit all my jobs for a variety of very valid reasons- I felt like I was worth more and should get paid more, that it wasn't inspiring, and that it was truly pointless.

so what did I do? I created my own business! now I get to stay home and work from home doing what I love and I support my husband, two kids, and best friend all with my businsess!

do what you wanna do! make **** happen.

We are now over the hump from having a summer with 7 planets (including Chiron) in retrograde.

Mars went retrograde in Aquarius and has moved backwards into Capricorn. It is stationing and due to turn direct during the day on Monday August 27th. Re-enters 0 Aquarius by Thursday September 13, crosses over the Aquarius FM Eclipse point at 4+ Aquarius on September 26 through 28th {should be a trigger-point?}, then clears its retrograde shadow mid-October.

Mars represents the energy behind our drives and ambitions.

Maybe you'll get your juju back once it turns direct and enters your Aquarius.

Caution about controlling any 'rages' while tMars goes over your Sun Aquarius. Direct it into what you think you want for your life and your future.

Also, Saturn has been retrograde in Capricorn for a while now. It is ALSO due to go FORWARD on Thursday, September 6th.. and finally 'unstick' itself OUT of 2+ Capricorn to 3+ by Monday October 1.

Next to go direct will be PLUTO on Sep 30/October 1st, 18.45 Capricorn.


Venus will go retrograde October 5th in Scorpio 10.49 until it turns Direct on Friday, November 16th at 25.14 Libra

The retrogrades will lighten up, with EVERYTHING Direct Sunday January 6, 2019 through February!

Take Care

@Mirage (helpful as always!) probably has a point, that it's intensifying some frustrations. It'll pass.


And Britney also has some advice : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pt8VYOfr8To
