Thank you for what you said a while back! I haven't been checking this thread. You are correct- I am a rather modest kind of Sag, I think due to my Cap influence. I do indeed have a full and happy house. And I'm thankful for where I've gotten myself in the last year- solo! But I do sometimes entertain melancholy cancer-moon wet-dishrag kind of days where I just don't friggin understand why it seems like EVERYONE I know has a S.O. and I don't! It just seems so implausible!

I look forward to the eclipse. Whatever happens happens. However, I do feel like I'm being propelled to new levels, personally and career wise. So we'll see what transpires. There's a libra I have my eye on, too

That's the second time I almost pass the "second half" of your post. I'm not one of those who has each Planet's "schedule" in memorization, but my guess is they are probably not as unexpected as we think, yet, not as predictable. The Moon's pull becomes a very subjective experience.

I guess we'll find out soon enough, for better or for worse.

Zala - The solar eclipse happens to me in pluto (29 degrees exactly) in virgo, in the 5/6 house (it's at the end of the 5, but interpreted in the 6th). What exactly does it mean that it's "dignified?" I'd like to know, because not only is the 6th naturally in virgo like you said, but my pluto is in virgo at the degree of the eclipse - and my pluto is currently in the 8th house by transit, which I'm pretty sure makes it dignified in scorpio - a triple dignified whammy! Is dignified like being exalted?

Rachel: your Ascendant is the closest at 16 degrees. I don't recall the orb for this eclipse.

I've noticed on the news ALL kinds of secrets that were long and buried are coming to light. either by people being caught or even confessing - it's chilling, because it's happened so much in the past few weeks that I've taken note and I wasn't looking for it. One example: A man who escaped a jail 30 YEARS AGO was finally found. A Japanese woman confessed to secretly burying US soldiers bodies after they were tortured and made to suffer scientific experiments in WWII (Very plutonian)this week.

Also, this week alone on the news: A woman being raped turned the tables and stabbed her attacker. A woman murdered a hitman who was trying to kill her by strangling him. A hit man. By strangulation. By a woman. Hired by her husband (secret evil deed)thwarted and uncovered. Now, for ANYONE to turn the tables on a hitman, a professional killer no less, is impressive and remarkable, but for them to overpower him by strangulation; which, contrary to TV, is not as easy as it looks (it takes a solid five minutes), in fact it is very difficult for a strong man to do, so for it to be done by a woman is astounding.

Is all of this because of the eclipses and plutonian influences? I don't know, but it it is starting to convince me. It seems as if victims are taking back their power and people who are or were abusing power are being jacked...just like it was said would happen. Spooky.

I am thinking back to the lunar eclipse in scorpio, last year on 24th April 2005. The day after that one my dear Granny was attacked in her home, and died two days later in hospital. It was a horrendous time. We were all fingerprinted by the police and it was all over the national papers. I never thought I would get through the pain. It's still a mystery. No one was ever found.

God bless her, she's in peace now. But I'm thinking about that eclipse in scorpio and how intense and sudden and violent all that time was. I don't know what time she was born but I do believe my Granny to have had scopio ascendant. (All her grandkids have some scorpio in their charts and she didn't.)

I am now worrying a little about this up-coming eclipse. It conjuncts my pluto in the fourth house to the exact degree. The sun being the father, and pluto being death, I am obviously thinking morbidly here. I haven't seen my father since I was 15, and though he was a violent person, I have been thinking about it all lately.

Ah, I am rambling, forgive me. But for some reason this week I am thinking about that awful day when my Granny died, and the fact that it was on the eclipse.

I can't help but think the timing of this going on on an eclipse day probably doesn't bode well. The eclipse on April 24 (dad is a Scorpio, it was opposing my Sun) is a few months off from when he had to go into the hospital in the first place. It's in his sixth house of health and squaring his Uranus, so I don't think this is gonna go well at all.

basically about to tell a friend that we aren't friends anymore because I've been extremely depressed after we spend time together.

I am reading a lot, trying to focus on my self.. I can't wait to see where I go with this.

posted September 22, 2006 11:49 AM              

Two friends of mine broke up, and one of them is now interested in me.. oh yeah, right around the eclipse. Now that's another thing I have to deal with. Totalllyyy fantastic.

Anyway, to explain how much I've changed before and after these eclipses would take way too long.. and as far as my eclipse day itself is going, I woke up in a great mood, accidently slept through my alarm (which is nice, more sleep..).

What I wrote is not technically correct, which is why I wrote it in quotes -- it was just an off-the-cuff thought on my part. A planet is dignified when it's in the sign or house that it rules. mysticme74 has Virgo on the cusp of her 6th (and Aries Rising and all the other signs in their proper house rulerships). For instance I have Mars in the 1st (although in Virgo), Venus in the 2nd (doubly-dignified -- in Libra as well as being in the house that it rules ), Mercury in the 3rd, and Uranus in the 11th. The planetary Dignities are the Rulers. Just to clarify, the Moon (eclipse) isn't properly dignified in Virgo or the 6th.

Oops!So I read into it incorrectly. Here, I thought I'd be dignified with this eclipse; I was so looking forward to that, oh well. Thanks for explaining that to me.

From my personal experience only, I don't interpret a planet into the next house, but I know that many astrologers do, as well as astro.com. My Mars and Neptune are on cusps. I feel Mars in the 1st -- I don't relate at all to Mars in the 2nd. And although nebulous Neptune is hard to pin down, I don't relate to Neptune being in the 2nd at all -- I exhibit the characteristics of Neptune in the 3rd.....

I was wondering about where to interpret signs at the end of a house. I remember looking in my book about pluto in the 5th versus the 6th and it sounded like me more in the 6th. I'll have to read some other interpretations and see. I also have saturn at the end of the 12th beginning of the 1st and they both sound like me...hmmm.

Since you have neptune in the 3rd, does that explain why you are such a good writer?

posted September 23, 2006 07:59 PM            

But you ARE dignified, anyway

And ooooh, for that lovely compliment, I will give you a cookie!! Seriously, though, Neptune in the 3rd fits me, whereas Neptune in the 2nd does not. Here's Neptune in III by Liz Greene:
http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/005190.html

Let me know where your Neptune is and I'll put up Liz's interp for ya..... I have tSaturn in my 12th right now. It hasn't been a bad ride. So the natal interps sound like the 1st or 12th could fit you?? That's intriguing!! What's your Asc?? The expression of the element and the mode would be so different from the 12th to the 1st, I would think.....
Here's a good tSaturn article:

Why, thank you, mi dear!

Isn't cool when a placement really is you to a "T?" It sounds like that is how it is with you and neptune.

Personally, I love neptune. Even if it's afflicted, I still love it. I feel it is creativity personified if channeled correctly. And I feel as we mature, we can channel it correctly, if we just try. It's mysterious, inspirational and powerful on a spiritual level, in my eyes. I know it is said to be where we deceive ourselves, or where we let others deceive us; but, we learn from that, and we can harness that power so we aren't deceived or use escapist means, if we so will it. Here's the best part: we get to keep all the good parts, even if we realize and divert the bad parts.

That's just my own personal view on Neptune.

This article from the same site is great regarding the eclipses.
http://www.amandaowen.com/the_transiting_nodes_in_pices_and_virgo.htm

And I found out the March 3, 2007 eclipse will be in uranus in the 6th for me...

So, I've had

lunar in saturn in the 12th
solar in pluto in the 5th/6th

Re: tSaturn -- the cusp of my 12th house is 1 Leo, and my Asc is 29 Leo. According to my handy-dandy little table ( http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/006052.html ) it'll be crossing my Asc about the end of August 2007..... oh boy, my self-image/identity gets to be restricted/restructured ..... aaaah, no worries mate -- I'll be fine If I can endure this tPluto sq nMoon and opp nJupiter that I'm plowing thru now, I can handle ANYTHING!!

It'll be intereting to see how you've changed this time next year, Zala.

Marriage on an eclipse day, wow! I would suspect it would bode very well or very bad.

I forgot my cousin's birthday...She's a gemini, born in 1975. Her husband I have no clue what his sign is but I think he's born in 1977.
