Unmoved ~I don't believe for one second that you're an Emotional Vampire. You don't take from nor manipulate other people for your own benefit, without conscience. Vampires are not into Giving -- only sucking the Life out of others. That is NOT what you've expressed here: quote: I know that being an artist is being a servant to society, because i know that artists feel the collective consiousness' feelings before society knows what they are feeling, a sensitivity to what direction the human race is going, and as an artist your job is to articulate this for society. That's my warped belief.
Not a warped belief at all!! In fact I wondered if you've been reading Liz Greene's Neptune book, as she writes almost exactly the same thing you did about the Neptunian sensitivity/receptiveness to currents in the collective consciousness. No, giving back to the group, giving the group a skill/talent that lightens our loads and our minds -- even when you are compensated well for it -- puts you at the other end of the spectrum from Emotional Vampires.....IP: Logged |

Zala, Thank you. I also thanked you for the links on the strology forum.Seems like you are being an angel to me today. I haven't read the book, but since it speaks of this, I shall do. Thank you on many levels. Have a Goog Day. IP: Logged |

And you have a good day too, V I look forward to hearing (and seeing) more of your art, and am intrigued by the product you intend to market PS: I will try to copy parts of Section 3, 'Neptune and the Collective', from "The Astrological Neptune and the Quest for Redemption" -- subchapter titled 'Neptune and the Artist' for you soon.

Unmoved Zala is definitely right about you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are a very talented and beautiful woman with a heart of gold and you are definitely NOT an emotional vampire! Anyone who sees you as that would be in my opinion a person of low self esteem who is either terribly jealous of you and/or is too wrapped in themselves and their petty dramas, to bother to take the time to see that you have worked hard to get where you are and overcome much...especially for someone your age! There are some folks older than you who have not done as much as you and never will. They cannot imagine your world and life. That type will not even try to. You remind them of all they are not. It makes them want to tear you down because of their own personal demons. Let them judge you. Their opinions are worthless. You are one of the most amazing and talented and intriguing people I have met to date! And yet you remain humble and modest and retain your scruples and integrity! You are an amazing woman Veronnica!!! Don't let anyone tell you otherwise! Your words and support during my recent stroke were appreciated more than you may realize! You are a great motivator and helped me alot when I needed someone to remind me of my strength...rather than acting like I had one foot in the grave. And your respect you have for others and patience with them is a rare thing! You are amazingly intelligent too! And your respect for others privacy and your honesty is beyond reproach! Ok... I could address your virtues for quite awhile here..... So to wrap it up.... You are NOT an emotional vampire! No way! Just keep doing what you are doing and keep being wonderful amazing YOU!

Oh, my dear Fayte.m You know how emotional I can get, so I know/hope that you know my sentiments about you, that they are of the highest regard. I don't want to throw the word "love" carelessly, so I will say this... The feeling is absolutely and utterly mutual. Thank you. You're a comfort to me and I am so happy that I was one to you too. {{{{HUGS}}}} P.S. Zala, I would appreciate that a lot. Thanks. IP: Logged |

Thanks for the heads up Fayte.I have been reading the Astrology forum for ages and I keep getting more and more confused. The most I have learnt today thus far is the definition of a Singleton. LOL. But reading those links Zala shared has been so helpful. It makes sense of a lot of things. I am learning but I have not learnt enough to express what I have learnt. I have been at it for hours trying to absorb something. I learn better by asking question and through prac. Zala, can I bug you sometimes about Asrtology? Not now, but in the near future, as I am still just gathering info right now? *I need to ask before I bombard you* Sorry for the thread hijack. IP: Logged |

What about your birth city in S.A.?? I could use Johannesburg, but we need longitude and latitude as close as we can get it for an accurate Ascendant degree.....PS: See http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum1/HTML/015008.html IP: Logged |
