I was on there until a week ago. I didn’t enjoy the post about how visitors to her blog were there to feed off her pain. I thought it ironic considering how, in another post, she was selling her pain by promoting her autobiography.

I took offence when she said that she didn’t know if other people’s stories of overcoming their past real and suspected they were not, however insisted that hers was real. I find this, “I’m the only one who knows how to think” and “I’m the only one who knows how to handle pain” to be condescending of the intellect and life experience of most readers.

Too many posts stoke irrational fears of others or people different to her. What is worse, unlike here where people are free to explore a topic in depth and its various tentacles, there one must echo what her position is.

There’s a chorus of people ever ready to compliment her on her most recent posts. I think it promotes a type of myopia, especially given that she has a Capricorn stellium in the 12th house of self-undoing.

She said she was betrayed when Tr Pluto when over her stellium but Capricorns can be more prideful than Leos. They wants status and public stature and there’s nothing wrong with that. It’s just that if every around you is a sycophant, you develop a highly biased view of self and the world. She has a Libra Moon so theoretically there should be some urge to counter balance; the stellium though, tips the scale in favour of 12th house themes.

Forget about giving her any sort of feedback.

I do remember the community being asked to create topics, to keep traffic flowing. I think she’s a Virgo sun, but I don’t know for sure.

I’ve just realized that I bumped this, after I visited a few times. I hadn’t been there for years, and saw topics that had been started here. So, I didn’t know if she was still here, or if it was prompted by people who were on both sites. I’m sure she was a member here, promoting her blog, before the crash that had us all registering again in 2009.

She’s still asking members to create topics to get traffic to her site going. She blames the search engines for her not bringing in more readers.

Recently she asked those who can afford it to chip in USD4 a month. I paid up for a whole year, thinking that would be the end of it. She was promising all sort of new material and calling our contributions an “energy exchange.” From what I gather she has Venus in her 8th, in Leo.

The 8th house among other things is “other people’s money.” Put Venus there and you have someone who values generosity in others. There’s nothing wrong - heck, even I have a Venus in Leo. The only difference is that I’m not pretending to be altruistic. I admit rather openly that I work for money.

I think she’s a Cap Sun (4 Cap planets all told), Libra Moon, and Merc and Jupiter in Virgo in her 9th. She told me not to “psychoanalyse” her when I commented that these 9th house planets helped her to process her pain on a post that was about her undergoing psychotherapy and how she now knew how to handle pain well. Well, the whole post, nay the entire blog, all 22 years and counting, is devoted to her pain. So how’s that for handling things well?

From memory she’s an early Aqua riser. I could be wrong but there have been an endless number of posts devoted to her experience of Pluto going through her 12th.

Any astrologer worth their salt could have told her what Tr Pluto going over her Cap planets in 12th would do.

I suspect she pegs herself as the go-to person on pain and invalidates the experiences of others because she is in the market of providing private readings. USD 80 for 30 minutes. Man, an appointment with an actual psychologist is much cheaper.

Do I think she (Elsa) is a saint in anyway? No, LMAO!

Do I think she could be a thief, murderer, or even a physical abuser, and had been a worse person? Yes!

She can be a lot to handle due to her brain damage (she admitted this on her website before)! But I feel that she has healed, and changed, a lot, as a person, in the past 2 and 1/2 years, or more! She used to be more brash, as a person! And I feel that she has changed a lot, and has become a better person!

I'm the kind of person where I can see the best in people, even those who can be hard to handle, like ElsaElsa! She has changed!

I can see both sides of the argument; She has changed, but she can't expect everyone to automatically forgive her, just because she has brain damage! It's probably brain damage plus CPTSD!

I used to be very blunt, and verbally cutting, on her forum, and/or website! But her Libra planets (Mercury/Mars) taught me manners! She's an Astrological genius! And she has become kinder as she has gotten older!

She's an 8th house stellium; Her whole life is about transformation, and change! And transformation takes time! I truly believe that the past 2 and 1/2 years, maybe more, she has finally become a kinder, and calmer, person!

I will always like her, as a person, and as a writer!
