OMG I love Pisces

Where are all the Pisces people? They hide too often and quit the forum too often, or I would be like:

So Saturn conjunct Mars, and Mars conjunct South Node? Maybe we knew each other in a past life, eh?

Or we're just here to learn from each other, depending on what you believe.

I must admit your post perplexes me. I guess I missed something pretty big.

I didn't really mean to pry open old wounds... Didn't realize there were much of ones to speak of. I just thought it was all petty stuff, but by your post it sounds like maybe it goes a little deeper than that.

As neither of us are involved, I think perhaps you better let it rest for now. If there are big issues I certainly don't think anyone needs me barging in with my battle axe to "defend the weak". If any involved wish to "break the silence", then I think it should be their prerogative but I don't want to hash open old wounds. I simply wouldn't know what to do with them. A bruised ego I can handle, I'll tell you to get over it. I'm not sure it works that way with emotional scars.

I'm not really Christian by the way, so I won't dispute the things you can find in the bible. It was a different time back then, and as a text I think it must be read with an open and critical mind.

It's not about old wounds.
It's not about what you missed (past tense), but - what you're missing (present tense). And not just you... "it's the same with all new comers - who seem interested in sticking around - while showing some potential (emotionally speaking)". I've been through that as well and... it took me some time to open my eyes (check 2'nd post - i've mentioned something about it there). I was really passionate about astrology when i joined this forum and was focused on that for most part (i spent most of my time here in Astrology 2.0), but was also dealing with a K.O.(self caused... after all, we can be our worst enemy sometimes "and blame it on life, on others, on stars or whatever...") - that made me blind to the surroundings. Again, it's not a secret. That post was meant to be a friendly warning, as - i wished - somebody would have done the same for me. It's something i learned the hard way (or more like - i remembered to be cautious with people who seem "really nice/friendly" at first - while latter...) - though from what i noticed, even most of the old users - weren't aware of what was going on (some do - now), while those that did - kept their distance or were to subtle about it. Can't blame them - though. I mean, even talking about it openly can be really draining - if you're living your life at higher vibes. So hey, just be cautious and - watch out for spiders who see you as a little fly.

"I'm not really Christian by the way, so I won't dispute the things you can find in the bible. It was a different time back then, and as a text I think it must be read with an open and critical mind."

I know that too and... coincidentally, i wrote something on that (a interpretation of a biblical story) in same topic - on page 2: http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum24/HTML/221066-2.html - a personal interpretation on "the story of Job". It's just that, sometimes i go really deep when dabbling with a subject like that (i get lost in the subconscious mind for hours, even days) - and a forum, where most seem interested in small talk for most parts - is definitely not the right place for that kind of talks.

None of that. Though i don't like to define myself like that - cause it feels like i'm limiting myself to a certain kind of traits (astrological stereotypes - in this case). Anyway - the main (Sun - Moon - ASC), are down in my signature.

Okay, I get what you're saying now :-)

And I can see what you mean, thank you for the warning. Of course, one must always be careful, and I do agree there are at times some worrying tendencies that will always be attracted to such forums as this.

I don't really let the negativity and emotional pain of others affect me though. For the most part I ignore it. I have been through enough myself and yet turned out fine that I don't really pity other people much. I've learned misery comes in many packages, and one pretty universal truth is that we all will get them. So when others go on and on about their unfortunate circumstances I don't feel much pity. But I am what I would call a "problem-solving" person at heart, so if someone serves me an issue I will attempt to find the solution. If they fail to take my advice however, I'm over it. I've done my part, so what more is there? I'm a caring person, I'm a cancer moon at heart after all, but I also don't have allot of patience with people. I don't ever repeat myself, so I'm really an awfully hard shoulder to cry on. This makes it difficult for people to use me as their emotional wastebasket. I'll listen once, but then I'm done. I think there is allot to be said both for selective memory and hearing. It might sound like I'm possibly self-delusional, and perhaps I am, but it has made life a whole lot easier. Besides, I'm no vulnerable fly to be squashed.

I do agree people too often wallow in common misery though. Misery loves company, as we all know. This is why I always tell people they cannot be support for other people unless they are secure within themselves. It never ends well. You could keep it up for a little while, but in the end all shaky foundations will crumble. And then where will you leave the people who leaned on you? It should always be our responsibility to look after No. 1 first. Once we are secure in our own person, we are able to offer others strength because we are confident in the pillars of our soul.

I feel resilient and strong. And I also view the tale of Job a little differently than you do. I think he was the strongest person of all because he had undeniable faith in his own ability to endure. It did not matter what was thrown at him, he knew but one way and that was faith. On one account here I do agree with you though, it was not so much religious faith as faith in himself. But I think he believed he had the fortitude to hold the light, to remember himself, even when there was only darkness and most others would have lost their way. Often bad things happen to good people, but if the good people believe in their own ability to conquer whatever challenge lies ahead; it does not matter what life holds. The end result will be the same either way. This too, is what I think true love is like. It is when it does not matter who or where you are, if you are even in each others lives. When you truly love someone, it endures to last a lifetime.

I don't believe I am like Job, I could not withstand everything - but I do believe that it would be very hard to break me and I don't think its likely it will happen. Because more than anything, my Self has been formed by forces that always tried to shape me - and I let myself be defined by that one stubborn streak that refused to bend.
