Can't help but remember this nightmare tonight...similarities with the hostages who were killed (trapped in a large venue, knowing they would die.) I still have vivid images in my head from that dream...

Faith, YOU scored another psychic "hit" with that precognitive dream about that church in France.

I worked on the charts of Bataclan, FRANCE, and USA Sag rising. ... You know that the Egyptian Goddess Isis helped gather and re-assemble the broken pieces of her brother Osiris after Set torn him apart.

When I hear or read word Isis, I see them actually invoking the energy of this goddess... That every broken thing especially dealing with things pertaining to the Feminine will be made Right.

This was an assault on the Feminine. (Think of the venues represented... They represent things important to VENUS.

I used to have precognitive visions and dreams of places I'd never seen, then later found. Sooooo creepy~~

One dream I had (just before I moved here to this state) was of standing in a certain store. Within a week of establishing self in extended-stay hotel, I found the store in my dream. It was right across the steet! Walked into this store (an upscale India jewelry and art boutique), found the VERY SPOT I was standing in the dream, then ~felt like this:

(Haha, nothing happened to me, either!)

I used to keep track of my dreams in a journal (with a tiny sketch), then put the date when pieces of the dreams came true. You should do that, Faith?

Had a ~weird daydream/vision that would scored a hit involving an element of the 9-11 USA attack. A group of friends and I had just attended an Edgar Cayce meditation seminar in Manhattan, NY. While driving over a bridge leaving Manhattan, I was gazing out over the part of the city, and started having a vision. Saw things coated with soot and ashes-- (I had fact-checked that this was not a weather-related overcast cloud.) As I watched, Everything was 'so sad'... Pinged over and over that there was a depression hovering over that area (it wasn't 'me'). Suddenly I burst-out crying tears, crying over the 'sadness' there.
This event happened really close to time of your birthdate, btw~~ {{ }}

Faith---- recently, several of us here started talking about funerals, and deaths, loss, and brokenness. I know that I had personally gone through a spell of brokenness and sadness that I tried to shake, but couldn't completely...

I wonder if some of us were having an empathic prodromal feeling of something about to break open? Like sensing a 'pre-ripple ripple' of what was to happen in the Collective?

With the Power of Love, and healthy powerful rage, we can leverage an appropriate controlled destruction of ISIL... (538 Sekhmet, 20952 Tydeus)

=(

I had something similar before...edited because I feel like I'm talking about myself too much. And I've had psychic dreams before, many times. Made a thread about it in Astral Realms.

But this is the first time I can remember experiencing the trauma firsthand in nightmare form, and then reading about others having the same kind of experience. It's so weird. Nothing to say, is there? Just...so weird.

[Just edited more ramble about it...I struggle to put this into context. It's beyond me, which saddens me. I want to understand more, connect with it more rationally, but I don't.]

Thanks for the insights on ISIS, you have some amazing astro-vision and insight there.

I wonder where ISIS is transiting? Natally I think I have it on my Vertex?...Or...no...that's IRIS. Pretty close. hehehe

There's no such thing as "talking too much about yourself" here. Let's re-permission each other once-again to be able to talk about anything.

And we can do some 'fun' linky-things to tie it all in to the theme of being 'in church' somehow--- Because THIS is what church is. It's "relating" to each other, and having compassion, AND interest in sharing one's self and stories, and listening to the Other.

You're pretty inspirational to me. I recall you said you hold back a bit with hugging people, and you only hug the one's who are extra-special?
... O god, you probably didn't say that? ... I'm having a LOT of problems sonically today, so I'm a bit short on checking and re-checking. SOMETIMES the goal for me is to JUST keep TYPING!! LOL

So, please know that I may compliment other people very much, but YOU are in the EXTRA-special category, okay?
I may be slow at doing posts, and for getting around to reading everything I need to read.
(Like, gosh, y'all are on-fire there in astrol 2.0 --- TOO MUCH for me right now. Of course, I'd like to read every single word, and comment all over the place. Just too much right now, but the spirit is willin'!! LOL)

I hope you'll be feeling better... Stress is biggie.

Ceres and Juno are going to be going over your 7th and 4th house cusps almost simultaneously. You're also about to re-experience a Vesta-Return... You know, those can actually turn out to be pretty spiritual. (~Heh, maybe you WILL be a 'designer' in the vision and architecture of new belief systems.)

You've got Jupiter-Hygiea conjunction ON your natal Juno in H2, in the house having to do with 'what you possess in the material world' for yourself. BTW, "Elvis" had his Juno-SN in the 2nd! So, those issues are magnified right now. I know that Hygiea is health, and sometimes it talks about mental health and wellbeing. Hygiea was said to be the manifestation of Goddess Pallas Athena as the Goddess of "miraculous healing"... May you experience the Miracle-- in whatever way it manifests.

(I hope you own a copy of Demetra George & Douglas Bloch's Asteroid Goddesses... It's a must-have.)

The book is rich with descriptions of Juno.
This transit might have something to do with the property that you and your husband own, along with your own needs to Be Creative. With both Pallas and Vesta in your 9th, and due to have another Vesta-return, could have something to do with your Belief systems. Maybe you'll have a spiritual uncovering of mysteries you've wondered about.

And I Understand your need to be in Silence... Ceres is ON your Mercury right now. Not feeling like you can communicate. And it's okay...

The Moon is going through your 6th. I know when the Moon is in MY sixth, I'm not feeling so hot. (Just the way it 'seems' to affect me, at least. We all figure out what our best and worst moons are-- and these change with time and progressions.)

Anyways, you've got things rocking and rolling in your 4th? Sun-Mercury conjunction there for you today and tomorrow. You should be able to uncover things about your Past H4 is Psychological Foundations, and since it also deals with Real Estate, maybe something about your and land? Pallas will be entering your 6th~~ she's the 'strategizer'. Art, Healing, Politics, and Communication.

I hope you and your hubby get an infusion of Understanding about some unconditional Love that YOU require. I pray strong prayers that things open up, and you'll have what you need-- really need.

And I hope for that spiritual breakthrough for you too.... download, Lord!!! She whole-heartedly deserves one. (Oh, and Lord? Some Healing for Her Body and Emotions too... such a Precious Soul. She has so much to offer... Give her a New Body )

Your UFO Starship CRACKED ME UP!! ... Here's a Song I heard'em singin' from there!!!

(music) I'll Have A New Body!! ("Cathedral" Quartet-- *They want to sing here*) [2:08] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=koSoPHWMLIA

I heard a really hilarious version of this song once, but can't find it right now. But the guys characterized their voices and it was hysterical to listen to.

(I have a lot to say.... Is there an Echo??? going on between us. O yikes, between your Mars Gemmy talker and my natural proclivity for going OTT's, we'll never be bored here. LMAO)

So... I wanted to at-least post something for you...

LOL I totally forgot about My Favorite Martian...I had a crush on him, too! Oh I loved everyone with supernatural powers back in my smallness. If I was born out of heaven then maybe they were the closest approximations of God, that I found once I landed here.

Thank you for looking at my chart! Wow, I don't even look at my chart that much, not by a long shot! And you are so right, hardship at home. Not with my husband (aww, tr Neptune on my pr DSC! It's all good!)...but as you see, tr Saturn right on my pr IC, on my natal Venus. Well lately my Sag son is struggling...he's almost 16 and we had to have some teen angst eventually? But he's very irritable, unlike his usual jovial (Sag) yet placid (Cap moon trine Tarus ASC-Saturn) self. Maybe he is annoyed at Saturn barging into his 8H. I'm trying not to get swallowed up by his angsty vibes but I usually do not succeed.

Figuring out Astrology and digging into those asteroids is 'what I have' to survive. And that's a Good thing... when there are no options.

You and I probably have even more overlapping birthdays in our family trees, I wouldn't be surprised.

Oh and I just found out you and I both have sun conjunct 1309 HYPERBOREA.

--> shades to protect from snow blindness

There is a thread about that in Interpersonal Astrology...turns out that is a major asteroid for me, in synastry. I'm wondering if that's your pattern, too? Do you still have your Sherlock hat on, and feel like exploring it?

I can't wait to hear your stories! Hope the sonics go down on Sunday, at least. Though...not with airports nearby.

*sigh* So far this morning, things are NOT good... I've been getting up extra-early JUST TO ENJOY the apartment BEFORE they start switching on their equipment.

So, it's extra-zazzy right this minute, and I'm hoping it will calm down to levels I can better-tolerate, later.

I think I'll go dust my backroom really well-- in a ~crazy symbolic way as though The Universe had its 'moving truck' coming-- *humorously~indignant* After all, I wouldn't want all that 'dust' on my binder-bins??! :laughing:

The bins are lining my room with cobalt and deep sky-blues and green colors. Ten-gallon (with lid) filing-cabinets. When you put furniture polish on them (Lemony Pledge), they slide easily like drawers. You just have to have the floor-room to bring them down to access contents.

I have each 1/2 inch to 2 1/2 inch research binder enclosed in its own two-gallon zip-lock storage bag. I found this to be a pretty nifty storage-organizing system for many things. Mildew can't affect it, nor any kind of book or paper-critter. For speed-filing, I can just throw the paper into the bag, and later go back to put it under proper location in the 3-ringed-binder.)

(You might look into that even for some of your kid's art or school projects. Stick them in ziplocks, label it, put them in bins, label those. It can rain through your roof, or you get flooded, and their projects will still be saved. I found that if you use inch-wide pieces of beige masking tape, and write with indelible markers, if you need to 'change' the labeling on a bin, it peels off very nicely without leaving marks.) ... Although I DO realize that you PROBABLY have all that under control in your house. You're an artsy-crafty type, as I recall. You create such pretty things.

It's hard to reach in back of my stacks, so 'it's a project' of scattering everything apart in order to clean and vacuum 'the dust' out. tsk-tsk... you know how those dust-y type irritations are! People can't see it, but 'YOU' KNOW it's there! LOL :rolleyes:

Haha, we are both cleaners-- it's "there", and will always re-appear...

Actually, I've learned to save my body-energy by cutting back on how often I've cleaned. THAT became 'necessity' for me.

Faith~~~ I can't imagine you having those energy-depleting conditions AND having an active family to take care of... {{hug-- You've got all my sympathies. Pace yourself!}}

Today it's just another ~mild aggravation along with jet roars, etc. Dust is one of those extra ~gets-under-your-skin things to do and take care of. (It would be nice to have an rm who likes things clean, too. The virgo I'm with is quite opposite. He's a huge pack-rat with no retrieving sense of organization, at all. After I organized him for the first five years of being together, I GAVE UP on him. Lots of shrieks and groans from him when it comes time to 'finding'... but I just shake my head. He knows, he could have followed all the work I did for him. I even would have helped him keep-up later, but he *chose* NOT to.... o welp! (All that time I spent on/for him! ~ *shakes head, and laughs knowingly at ~self*)

:mountain1:

So, I grabbed my binder with 1309 Hyperborea. I'd done research on that when I first started at LL. I hadn't made notations in my binder on the charts I had worked on before. (Usually lots of political figures and the USA chart.)

You probably already know that Mark Andrew Holmes has a page on it. (And thanks for the headsup at Interpersonal LL, I'll check there and read 'one of these days'~~ *sigh*.)

I like the caption Mark placed under two photos.

"On the ice, all people are brothers and sisters."

And under the astronaut's picture of them floating together in zero-gravity, Mark has written:

"In space, everyone can hear and see you scream, if you scream; and no one can fool around."
http://markandrewholmes.com/hyperborea.html

A notation I took down and placed in my little cramped notebook is a quotation from Jason Jefferies and The Quest for Mystical Enlightment. I copied this phrase as being a descriptive for HYPERBOREA:

"The point where the earthly and heavenly places meet."

I quickly did a check of charts on my astro list, and seems that it's a rarer type thing to have that conjunction.

Interesting note is that WE do, separately and together! ... Our composite Hyperborea Pisces 25.09, and Sun Pisces 26.49 in the co-Sixth House. {{OUR Sun Pisces is ON my Elvis 26.40!}} ever-LOL!! Guess that's a part of the healing-work WE are doing here, Faith. I've delineated an individual's chart like our compo is. Part of what we deal with has to do with developing a healing type of trust. tPluto is ON our co-IC! Delving into Depths.

The chart for the UNITED NATIONS (in NYC) also has a Hyperborea-Sun conjunction! Hyperborea 0.05' Scorpio and Sun Scorpio 1.08' in House 7.

Quotation from Mark Andrew Holmes' Hyperborea--

..., and the fraternity or sorority that arises among those who are under these conditions {that is, cold, danger, hardship, isolation} from self-preservation and possibly from other motives, such as professionalism.

Here's an excerpt from Wikipedia... QUOTING section of what Peck called:

Characteristics of true community

Peck describes what he considers to be the most salient characteristics of a true community:

Inclusivity, commitment and consensus: Members accept and embrace each other, celebrating their individuality and transcending their differences.
They commit themselves to the effort and the people involved. They make decisions and reconcile their differences through consensus.

Realism: Members bring together multiple perspectives to better understand the whole context of the situation.
Decisions are more well-rounded and humble, rather than one-sided and arrogant.

Contemplation: Members examine themselves.
They are individually and collectively self-aware of the world outside themselves, the world inside themselves, and the relationship between the two.

A safe place: Members allow others to share their vulnerability, heal themselves, and express who they truly are.

A laboratory for personal disarmament: Members experientially discover the rules for peacemaking and embrace its virtues.
They feel and express compassion and respect for each other as fellow human beings.

A group that can fight gracefully: Members resolve conflicts with wisdom and grace.
They listen and understand, respect each other's gifts, accept each other's limitations, celebrate their differences, bind each other's wounds, and commit to a struggle together rather than against each other.

A group of all leaders: Members harness the "flow of leadership" to make decisions and set a course of action.
It is the spirit of community itself that leads, and not any single individual.

A spirit: The true spirit of community is the spirit of peace, love, wisdom and power.
Members may view the source of this spirit as an outgrowth of the collective self or as the manifestation of a Higher Will.
[unquote wiki]

In his Stones book, p.388-- Quote
Community bulding is not a specifically CHRISTIAN process. But G.K. Chesterton touched upon the dynamic a century or so ago when he explained, "The purpose of Christianity is to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable."

G.K. Chesterton is a May 29, 1874, Sun Mercury Mars in Gemmy! *grin, my possible Sun-degree buddy* http://www.astro.com/astro-databank/Chesterton,_G.K. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G._K._Chesterton

Quoting... 'Who first got the idea to erect a giant STONE in the ground and why? She or he was a leader, of course. Anyone who gets a new idea and persuades others to help execute it must be a leader by every definition.
Did such leadership originate with God? Was that person "called," so to speak, as I suppose all great artists are?
We don't know. We who hardly begin to comprehend our own minds will never know what went on in the mind of a prehistoric person. But we can Imagine.
In my own, purely speculative, imagination, I wonder if his or her thoughts didn't go somewhat like this:
Stones.
God.
Glory.

Stones . . .
God . . .

Oh, God,
You are the stones:
complex,
Many faceted,
In the pebble and the boulder,
Ageless and everywhere.
You surround us.
You raise us out of the ground.
You feed us.
You are our children and our ancestors.
Without You there is but death.

How can we give back to You?
Let us make You a gift,
Praise You to Yourself.
Stones.
We return them to You,
Circles and rows,
Alone and together,
We make You monuments and temples,
Altars and menhirs.
We lift them up
Out of the earth,
Stand them as signals
For the generations,
Signals of remembrance,
Signals of praise.
We break our backs for You
In adoration
And gladness.
Amen.

Happy full moon close to your sun! Hope this brings fullness and happiness to you.

Hope you are not short of breath anymore.

I love what you wrote above, about stones. I need to be thinking about it some more...

Well we had a geologist visit our kids' playgroup a few weeks ago, and we learned a lot about rocks and crystals...'never even knew a rock was a mishmash of things, before that...not sure what I thought it was!

quote:

---

In geology, rock or stone is a naturally occurring solid aggregate of one or more minerals or mineraloids. For example, the common rock granite is a combination of the quartz, feldspar and biotite minerals. The Earth's outer solid layer, the lithosphere, is made of rock.

---

Wiki says.

So a rock is a community of minerals? Fits the lesson here?

I love the Chesterton poem...very cool birthday twin for you =)

When I was young a friend of mine (Virgo) gave me a GK Chesteron card that said, "Angels can fly because they take themselves lightly."

I remember staring at the card for a while and saying, "Hey that's true isn't it?" And she nodded and said it made sense to her. Then she added.."And I thought of you when I saw that card...you need to learn it." (Guess I was a more serious Cap in those days.)

Shortly after that another Virgo friend bought me a GK Chesterton book and said she thought of me when she read that same book herself.

Maybe we are similar because of that.

Thanks so much for the dust stories (my 6H sun was riveted...and how good to know about 2 gallon ziplock backs, and labeling tips!)...and the Hyperborea lessons. <3 Hyperborea feels very close to my heart for reasons I explained here:

You and I, a pair of ice dancers. =)

But tr Saturn on my Venus is making me feel less talkative than usual...and I cannot tap my well of inner happiness so easily...

Last night my two youngest were misbehaving. I have trouble with consistent discipline because I'm a pushover Pisces moon. So they often ignore me when I tell them to do something. Well last night I was completely fed up and blew my top (I'm embarrassed to say...but I did.) It was so random, I noted the time and did an event chart for it!

Tr ASC @ 1 Leo conjunct my 0 Leo Saturn
Tr Saturn-Mercury 6 Sag, exactly on my 5H Venus
Tr MC 15 Aries conjunct tr Uranus & my 5H ruler, Jupiter

All the Leo/5H afflictions were there ready to pop. *rolls eyes*

Listening to Change the World...ahhh this relaxes me =)

My son accidentally knocked my computer off its desk the other day and it broke. My husband fixed it just tentatively (he's brought it back from the dead about seven times since I bought it, but now it's really terminal. hehehe..pun.) So I may lose computer access again soon, and I will be busy with Thanksgiving and don't know when I'll be here again.

Wishing you a happy Thanksgiving. You of all people know how to be truly grateful and I can trust you to do it "right." =)

Your Hyperborea postings are jawdrop amazing! I bet you'll be able to do reading for people in not-too-distant future. I didn't add anything to your knowledge there, and you are always too Kind.

OH NO about your computer being *ahem* 'terminal'?? {That's a good one.}

Well, maybe you needed that 'break'(?) in order to get some much-needed rest?

Yes, this Full Moon in a few hours has all those 'oppositions' to my Sun, plus tNeptune Pisces and tMars Libra EXACTLY squaring MY SUN... Grand Square formation for me.
I hope some things that have been on-edge break lucky for me... or I think I'll get quite darkly depressed for the holidays. Some people say to be thankful just for being alive *you ungrateful ***** *~~ Nah, j/k.
Some days, ~I wonder. Who wants to live on earth where everything's Frozen and you can't get out... (Loved your Madonna.)

At least, I'm nice and warm here. I get hypothermic. Living up north you need a thick cowhide coat to seal out the winds that can feel like they go straight in through your pores. That's a wet-wind you have up there, usually.

Your kids are sooo lucky having an astrologer-savvy Mom! You're a Treat!!

Praying

I'm very down but trying to keep my mood up by goofing around here...need to begin a marathon of cooking soon. Gingerbread cake just came out of the oven...my husband is giving the kids rides through the fields in the back of his truck...I think they might even see some LIVE wild turkeys out there.

((Hug))

Thinking of you and hoping you are happy.

I hope you are well. Things okay over there?

Is Christmas making you happy?

Had a nice day today, got to see some friends, worked things out with a Cap moon friend of mine who bewilders me (she's a Cancer sun and calls me "too emotional" hehehehe.) My German friend sold me some of her wool-felted soaps with lavender essential oil. They have little birds wool-felted onto them...the wool preserves the soap and works like an exfoliator. Cannot wait to try. I swear, bath time is one of the things I'll miss the most, once I cross to the other side.

Also getting into UFOs for real

I'd love to hear your thoughts on that?
