Are you talking to me, Sweetie. What did you say that will bring up sadness. I am not afraid of sadness, anyway. I welcome my emotions as I have pushed them down, long enough

I just put some things on your thread and was coming to remind SS to look at the house which Scorpio Ruled as she has Pluto in the 12th. This can be a house of sorrow.

I feel kind of bad; I had a lot to say as I read the article- but I'm not ready to talk about it. But then, when I think about how relate-able this is, I wonder how much I can actually bring myself to say? Oy, and now I feel like I might waste your time. I'm sorry, please bear with me.

One thing I would like to comment on now:
I have to accept the differences and difficulties of having a 12th house planet, ah? That is the sort of thing that's always easier said than done, especially since I can't figure out what I'm missing with Pluto hidden away. But then, if the missing element in my personality or expression is supposed to be a primal passion- I don't know if I understand. 'Primal' and 'Animal' as metaphors are concepts that don't really compute to me. However, as far as lashing out and acting on impulse (if those count at all) go, I don't think I should want to express that regardless. And yet, I somehow suspect that that is what this means. *sigh*

Oh, I forgot for a second: Scorpio rules my 12th and 1st houses... *sigh*...

Picture a tiger in the wild. He is all primal passion

I'd been absent for pretty much the entire rest of the Mercury Retrograde (in part because of it) but I took a little bit of time to think about having hidden passion. When I think about it, I am *not* a passionate person on the outside. I actually prefer mostly to stay detached to things unless they're fairly superficial (and even then, I prefer only to talk about it to people I'm close to) because I don't want to give the impression that I really actually care about or am interested in things. For instance, in a given day, the ratio of things that I actually respond to versus keeping it to myself is really heavily skewed to keeping things inside.

But then, I am by far more passionate when I am by myself (which sounds like how 12th house planets work, right? Being able to express them only when solitary or in a safe space?). Hmm, I think that I understand having a 12th Pluto a bit more. When I read some of the articles and book excerpts about it, there was so much overly mystical and magical discussion that I had a hard time relating to it; I don't see myself as intuitive or possessing strong personal power at all. Part of that, however, probably has to do with how much I keep myself hidden and how much I held myself back...

And now that I'm back I am again going to try to talk more. It's strange how overwhelming all the threads can be, though.
