In a whole lot of ways, I agree sooo much.
Otherwise, I wouldn't still be there--almost 2 years now.

I think I may be a wee-bit depleted right now.
Well ~duh?? Look at my whole situation???
Plus... having these chronic headaches and aggravations from the outside, just 'gets old' after a while. Can't do anything about it for relief, in an outward way right now. I have to sit on it.. and watch life go by, for more time. Try to chill. Endeavor to go-within, center the best I can, and "try" to recharge batteries??

BlackMoonLilith is visiting the generational Chiron-Aquarius agers right now? SouthNode and Mars increasing that energy?????

Yup. Reminds me of my previous-decade's "men-o-pause" days!!! ROFL
(humor) **Fair Warning** NOBODY one gets away with 'anything' right now??

I guess every once in a while, I have the right to break the mold of 'the usual' for me.

That might be the effect of the energies of Venus squaring Mars, too??

Such Times of Transitions.

Enjoy the Cosmic Ride

Today, Monday September 10th
World Suicide Prevention Day
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Suicide_Prevention_Day

quote
World Suicide Prevention Day (WSPD) is an awareness day observed on 10 September every year, in order to provide worldwide commitment and action to prevent suicides, with various activities around the world since 2003.

Factors
Follows a brief summary of key quotes on the subject of suicide from different sources:

"The main suicide triggers are poverty, unemployment, the loss of a loved one, arguments and legal or work-related problems [..]
Suicide results from many complex sociocultural factors and is more likely to occur during periods of socioeconomic, family and individual crisis
(e.g. loss of a loved one, unemployment, sexual orientation, difficulties with developing one's identity, disassociation from one's community or other social/belief group, and honour. [..]
In richer countries, three times as many men die of suicide than women do,
but in low- and middle-income countries the male-to-female ratio is much lower at 1.5 men to each woman. [..]
In the United States, males are four times more likely to die from suicide than are females. However, females are more likely to attempt suicide than are males. [..]
The disparity in suicide rates has been partly explained by the use of more lethal means and the experience of more aggression and higher intent to die [..] in men than women."

"In much of the world, suicide is stigmatized and condemned for religious or cultural reasons.
In some countries, suicidal behavior is a criminal offence punishable by law.
Suicide is therefore often a secretive act surrounded by taboo, and may be unrecognized, misclassified or deliberately hidden in official records of death. [..]

Stigma, particularly surrounding mental disorders and suicide, means many people thinking of taking their own life or who have attempted suicide are not seeking help and are therefore not getting the help they need.
The prevention of suicide has not been adequately addressed due to a lack of awareness of suicide as a major public health problem and the taboo in many societies to openly discuss it. [..]
Raising community awareness and breaking down the taboo is important for countries to make progress in preventing suicide."

Physical and especially mental health disabling issues such as depression, are among the most common of the long list of complex and interrelated factors,
ranging from financial problems to the experience of abuse, aggression, exploitation and mistreatment,
that can contribute to the feelings of pain and hopelessness underlying suicide.
Usually substances and alcohol abuse also play a role.
Prevention strategies generally emphasize public awareness towards social stigma and suicidal behaviors.
endQuote

I found out several years ago, the shock that my first cousin, Michael, had taken his own life a decade before that. News of his death impacted me. I was grieved for a long time...

Good Performed!!!

The National September 11 Memorial
is a tribute of remembrance and honor to the 2,977 people killed in the terror attacks of September 11, 2001 at the World Trade Center site, near Shanksville, Pa., and at the Pentagon,
as well as the six people killed in the World Trade Center bombing in February 1993.

The names of every person who died in the 2001 and 1993 attacks are inscribed into bronze panels edging the Memorial pools, a powerful reminder of the largest loss of life resulting from a foreign attack on American soil and the greatest single loss of rescue personnel in American history.

Hurricane Florence 2018
"... currently a powerful Category 4 hurricane over the Atlantic Ocean, threatening the Southeastern United States and the U.S. Mid-Atlantic states." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hurricane_Florence

so far... we have asteroids

SUN Virgo 19+ {USA Neptune Virgo 22.25}
3122 Florence Virgo 18.58
MERCURY Virgo 11.58 {weathermaker, conjunct F.S.Zosma/working with people and in situations where victims are present and need assistance}
7742 Altamira Virgo 11.52 {insurance-issues, insurance industry}}

… USA 20000 Varuna 13.10' {floods}

JUPITER Scorpio 18.52
235 Carolina Scorpio 17.56

2031 BAM Scorpio 14+ ..
.. on USA 3926 Ramirez {immigrants, but also temporary shelters like tents on land, hotels, etc}
.. w USA 1181 Lilith Scorpio 14+ SD

12182 Storm Cancer 23.29
.. on USA Mercury Cancer 24+ H8


42290 Flood Capricorn 21+ rx
.. on USA 353222 2009 YD7 Capricorn 20.30 rx {refugees, having to move because of adults}

News item the other day is that the present government administration had "taken" the money OUT of FEMA's budget for rescue,
and "transferred" those funds to boost the budget for I.C.E., and to fund the cell-holding-facilities where "separated-immigrant-children" are being held-- for govt-created "orphans" and orphanages}

.. Consequence??
They thought they had quietly diverted that money (which to *them*) was "just-sitting there" in surplus?
*ahem*
--- "THAT" is what "a budget" is designed FOR. To make sure needs will be 'covered' in the future, in the event it would be needed during that year. *They* shorted the funds set aside for the people of this nation, in the agreed-upon budget for storm-aftermaths, DURING some of the peak-seasons for hurricanes???!!!

Haha.. They need an weather-astrologer!!

asteroid 359 Georgia is LEO 19.23'
conjunct 437 Torricelli LEO 19+ {another weather forcasting asteroid}

20002 Tillysmith Leo 14+ {tsunami, surge???, intuitive-sense, use of obscure knowledge you picked up somewhere) ..

I'm sure there will be MORE asteroids I can find that "resonate" with these storms-- multiple storms, actually.

I will stop for now....


I was on the bus the other day coming back from my v-job. There was a man, older guy, whose eyes were huge as saucers as he tried to TELL people about the ENORMITY and seriousness of this storm.

For him? It was "personal" .. as he has Family Members along the Carolina coast in the swath about to be hit, at possible Cat 4 {he was saying}.

He had a marvelous sense of humor, as he told us he is still reeling from LAST year's Hurricane IRMA. He (with humor) said the moment he heard about Hurricane Florence, he ran to the supermarket and bought $225 dollars worth of supplies--- "and it isn't even coming HERE," he said!!!

Some of us are "preppers". I WELL-understood how nervous he felt!!

I wish all of you who are potentially in Harm's way, the Courage, wisdom and instincts you will need to persevere.

Wishing you all VERY Good Luck!!!

Today is the birthday of Clara Schumann.
b. September 13, 1819

Musician, Composer, Teacher,
Mother of 8 children, & Breadwinner!!

- http://www.astro.com/astro-databank/Schumann,_Clara

I looked at her chart,
listened to a mini biography,
read a wiki biography of her, while listening to one of her works.

I think her chart really shows her (even though there is no birthtime.

Her Virgo planets, Mars Cancer, is reflected in her musical composition too.

Starts with this -- (quote)
née Clara Josephine Wieck
(13 September 1819 – 20 May 1896)
was a German musician and composer, considered one of the most distinguished pianists of the Romantic era.
She exerted her influence over a 61-year concert career, changing the format and repertoire of the piano recital and the tastes of the listening public.

A long-distance acquaintance-friend that I've never personally met, texted me early this Sunday morning to tell me that her father had just passed away in the hour before.

She's had a tough go of it in the past couple years. She's been without the ability to afford health insurance now, … and has been recently diagnosed with extremely high sugar diabetes for which she has to scramble for supplies from persons who would have 'extra' of theirs to give her.

She is now in last pass of her 2nd Saturn Return, H8 Capricorn.
tPluto has been in her 8th house for a while, and is almost finished.

She has a Pisces Sun with tNeptune-rx exact on it. H10 aqua
tVenus in Scorpio is on her Vertex-Neptune-rx Scorpio today.

tMars had just gone over her 29+ Cap Moon H9.

tChiron-rx at 0+ Aries is on her Mercury Aries 0.16.

She's had a lot of important people to her die in this past year.

tChild in Virgo is exact on her Pluto-rx Virgo H4, in quincunx to her Mercury Aries.
Recent Eclipse in LEO was to her H4 IC.

It's been a generally death-y September...

Prayers for my friend and her family members.

Having a sense of weights and depletions.
Inspiration is always something to 'find' but my Hope-sense that adds a force has been gradually lowering.
Never realized how important the energy behind Hope is. It makes Inspiration, imagination, 'real'.

Been waking up in the morning, with almost every next-day, being a reinforcement of the amount of Time that has gone past in my life-- of how MUCH life I have lived, and comparatively how less and fewer the days I have that are left.
It's like I've been wearing down, with no outer supports.

Rm and I really truly have no connection except when he needs. He has no ability (no wiring) for giving care.
I guess, … I guess that means I needed people who care, and I have no one at all in real-life (near my body) who does.

I have my virtual people who do.

And I get smiles from others in the 'hood. I can feel they "like" me, as they perk and wave at the sight of me. It's good to be a 'spark' for others.

It's automatic too-- I don't need to 'feel' sparked, in order to BE a spark. Again, it's automatic.

But no one, none of them, can relate to the life of me. Many are not English speakers, and they "belong" to and in their own culture--- to their family and culture-in-extension.

For me, that is so extraordinary, because it would have been what I would have wanted for my own self... and it didn't happen. It didn't turn out that way for me.

That woman-daughter who's father died---
she went through extraordinary efforts (on more than one occasion during this past year) to BE there for him. She had been upset that her dad had been wasting. He wasn't eating anymore. She drove those two-days' journeys to go make sure that he would take in nourishment. She attended him.

That's the way my older generations were. They took care of each other.
They had even set-up nursing homes, as the family of extendeds was prolific and many. *smile*
And when one of the females was needing help, the other females showed up (laughing) in-committee, and took-up whatever slack there was.

I recall hearing about one of the (I'll say) sisters finding-out that a sister who lived further-away, was just low. The sisters showed up. They spruced her place up. They painted, cleaned, wallpapered. They socialized, renewing the habitat. I know that this kindness took mountains of work-labors off that sister's back and shoulders. Work-needs can daily bury a person.

Seems that people … hmmm. No. That's not true... People DO have connections. Even people I've spoken to, who HAVE their daughters living close by.
.. One made a comment to me the other day where she says that if she died, that no one would know.
.. I thought about that. Really weighed in my Heart. And I knew that what she said? It wasn't true. She has affluent daughters living nearby. It was only her sense-- (and, her doctor just diagnosed her with low thyroid, and I know that once she gets on replacement, she'll start feeling MUCH better in the next months. She also is being able to close the door to a weight on her, and it will OPEN a Future for her. She's actually glowing, and not seeing it for herself yet.)

So anyways. I'm feeling in a kind of trap, not having humans (here in locale) with an interest and care.

I know that I have some excellent "virtual-humans," who care-- and I love love love to post to them. And. There is a gulf of spaces and miles between all of thee and me. I thank you so much for you being you.

AND!!!! haha. I gotta stop having the TV on. Can't do that because Rm keeps it on for his "companionship"-- I don't count!! LOL. There's a blunt-hardcold disconnect, with people-ness. I get my care through virtual world, and, going within to affirm how much God Loves me in the ethereal realms of my spirit.

Rm is out riding his car this morning. yay.
I get to turn off TV.. get some cleaning done, as much as I can.

On TV, 'all of the world' comes in through that glass, to bombard with messages of how 'bad' things are, how 'bad' people are-- the other pendulum swing of how good families are, how caring some groups of people are. An yes, among themselves, they've got everything, and can buy anything.

Been waking up in the morning, feeling like all is so daunting. I have an impossible task that in reality cannot-happen.

If I were in my 20s, no sweat no problem-o!!!. Even if I were in my 30s, or 40s. … I'm a couple decades past that now.

I'm so aware that the body takes steps downward, at some points you 'notice' it. All the while others are climbing-- fast and furious and vigorously and ambitiously sooo busy and laser-focused into their material accumulations, grossing and padding-up, for whatever they are aware of coming. And they able-bodied-- they are secure and abled, in themself. Reproducing.

So. I'm going to go make some coffee, (take tielenols), and start my day--

Renew my Strength.
Go within to my Divine Spark and spirit.

International Day of Peace (September 21)
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Day_of_Peace
quote..
The International Day of Peace...
is a United Nations-sanctioned holiday observed annually on 21 September.
It is dedicated to world peace, and specifically the absence of war and violence,
such as might be occasioned by a temporary ceasefire in a combat zone for humanitarian aid access.
The day was first celebrated in 1982,
and is kept by many nations, political groups, military groups, and people.

In 2013 the day was dedicated by the Secretary-General of the United Nations to peace education, the key preventive means, to reduce war sustainably.

To inaugurate the day, the United Nations Peace Bell is rung at UN Headquarters (in New York City).

The bell is cast from coins donated by children from all continents except Africa,
and was a gift from the United Nations Association of Japan, as "a reminder of the human cost of war";
the inscription on its side reads,
"Long live absolute world peace".

Seiko Takase, daughter of Peace Bell creator Chiyoji Nakagawa, shares how her father melded the public's "aspirations for peace" into the bell.
