I celebrated my 60th Birthday on Friday Morning. This was a Milestone Birthday for me, and I had to deal with the personal psychological components of the 'meanings' behind crossing this particular threshold~~ all the while having other-things going on in my life as well. In my life, it was not-expected for me to still be alive right now... [/e] ...but I STAND HERE, and I DECLARE that I STILL am Alive. I Made it across that incredible Bridge. I didn't go jump-off of one, nor do I intend on ever going back to live under one again, either. {Thank you & hugs to LL-Faith, for my Birthday thread and song in LLC2.0!}
So, I'm hereby standing tall, and make a thrrrrrping 'noise' at those old-devils which made so many troubles for me during all these years; I dismiss and shake-off every last one of his little assigned mignons into the cleansing Fires of the Sagittarius Full Moon. I declare its assignment against me Void... to myself, and to anyone that I love ~ the known and unknown-as-yet.
Song to say 'goodbye' to cement-weights, headstone reminders of the past...

Time to let color come back into my life, after weight of so many disappointments...
When I went to bed after the last post, I spent most of that pre-slumber crying and feeling like I was buried under a heap of boulders.
[paragraphs deleted] /e
I woke up a few hours after laying down that night-morning, and in my sleep, I 'crossed the threshhold' into the decade of my 61 to 70 years. Around the eclipses March-April, I decided that this 'birth day crossing' would help me make some finality decisions.
When I woke up, and there was 'nothing' done on a physical human-body realm to celebrate my Life. I could have held my tongue, and just swallowed and accepted the fate of being stuck.
Instead, I showered, dressed, and took my own self out for a 60th Birthday Breakfast! I made my Own day.
Walked to nearby IHOP. There had been an elderly lady sitting there facing me several tables down from me. She left then came back to talk to the waitress. She said that on her way to her car, she 'had the feeling' to go back and to 'pay my bill'... She gave the waitress "words" to tell me with this Gift. Her words were worth FAR more than just her paying my tab.
The waitress came to sit in the chair across from me. The elderly lady had said to her that 'it would be important to me today', that a 'stranger' would pay for my meal. That 'in this act' of her picking up the tab, it was to be 'symbolic' of this: that others are 'there' for me working in the background that I have no idea are there, but who are working things out ON my behalf. That I can 'rest' secure now, knowing this.
O --- M---- G! *jawdrop* ~~ Was that another kind of 'angelic' visitation for me? ... Well, in a way, but not like the one I had with the little old tight-bunned lady up in Wheaton Illinois back in the early 1990s, who smiled with delight saying I was on a mission from God, but then clouded as she told me I was hiding my light under a bushel! ... This was a 'modern' occurence. It was a flesh-and-blood "real" person, who 'obeyed' a hunch, an internal message for me on this special day, to experience and feel.
At that point, I gushed into tears tears and more and more tears. I couldn't stop all the laughing and crying at the same time. The waitress said awwww, and got up and hugged me ~~ but I assured her that bursting was from tears of many years of disappointments, but also of INCREDIBLE joy. Good news met me. A joyous message on THIS Day of all days....
Then the wait-staff got together and brought me ice cream!! Whip cream, strawberries, chocolate chippies. It was fabulous!! They said they would have sung, but two couldn't sing, and the other had laryngitis, and others hadn't showed up for work today as they too had had their problems. But they didn't want me to leave without regards for this day.
I got on the bus to go downtown for a while. I bumped into a driver whose BIRTHDAY 'is' the same exact birthday as me, and our planet charts are ABSOLUTELY identical!!! born 40 minutes apart, nearby Longitudes.
...He ALSO has Sag Ascendant, only his is 20+ degree, and mine 11+. I have intercepted houses in 3 and 9. He's got the Virgo-Pisces axis MC/IC that I have HERE in our "shared" location! Now, what are the bizarre chances of THAT? Astounding to meet your chart twin? (On a 'bus' of course, transportation for geminis with saggi ascendants.) (Discovered this during that last visit to the dentist. The drivers all changed routes as their new bids had come. He left on vacation the next week, so I thought he was moved to a different route. But that was not the case.)
This livid-pain is all to be washed out to the sea... where the pieces of my life turn into tiny Beautiful treasure for Others.
Reminds me of asteroid Sedna, 25+ Aries. part of my Cardinal-Sign Grand Cross...
.... It's interesting to me right now as I look at it. Each one of these planets/objects spell-out (in its most-base and lowest energetic formation) the complete victim! ~~ wow.
I'm kindly going to stop, and to give myself credit right now, for having borne all this mis-happened life, mis-timed life events, and came through with an 'overcomer's' attitude... and one without a root of bitterness (that I would be consciously aware of right now), but still some pain here and there that I thought had healed~ and much of it did.
Gonna give myself some slack for recent tailspin. A nose-dive in my ability to 'keep-it all positive' within a slew of ugly derailments in an energy that seemed to slip from my control. I wasn't perfect. I had been doin' soooo good, then *o welp*. So!, I put my own arm of comfort around 'self' right now, and telling me 'I Be okay'...
In fact, I'm right and fresh like ozone renews after vicious lightning storms here. I'm as right as Beautiful Rain after a bad drought season... But sometimes when the skies begin to release, it can produce floods *My Heart goes out to those Texans...*
And also floods of tears for things going on in the Earth right now~~~~, including VP Biden's. (Been watching his chart since before the elections. Asteroid Child was ON his own 12th House Scorpio Sun when his son-of-Promise died the other day. Biden has an early-Sag Asc 3+, which tSaturn crossed.) Other transits were remarkable in his chart too. Asteroid Beau[fort]... Rest in Peace Beau Biden, 43 years old. Too soon.
All that suffering around us: Lord, work it all to YOUR perfecting purposes for our selves, and for our Earth community.... Lord, please help us Raise our Love-Levels. We need some of that Heaven here on our small tiny EarthWorld. Lord, let every tear of every broken-being and all broken-heartedness become like Liquid Gold before You. ... Purify every Heart, Satisfy the Soul of any Seeker after the Truth, and we give You permission to reveal the intentions behind every single word spoken in the interchanges among us. Let these be Healed.

It's Time for my Life to get back on track. Perhaps even the 'diversion' or distractions that have gone before, were live 'training' exercises that have brought us to this point in our histories, in order to help solve one giant piece of the Mystery.
Right now, part of that is to reflect, but not react. We think, we observe our own self, then take this to God, and 'let God adore God' in us. .... Love is the Healer. The Healer, is Love.
I look forward to my ultimately 'seeing' with my mind's eye, further than I ever thought I was actually able to see before.... My 2015/16 Solar Return Chart, has Sun MercRX Mars just into that H12 House. The Libra Moon is in the Virgo 4th House. The sky was gnarly that day, but for that brief time, the Moon made a mini-trine. (I won't delineate it here.) ... It's my time to wrap up loose ends, take inventory of my abilities and potentials, and find out how to make it all work FOR me. Cancer 9+ degrees is on the SR Ascendant.
I thank 'whomever' my 'invisibles' are, as the restaurant-elderly lady intuitively and prophetically calls them. I deeply thank you in-advance, and thank God you are in my life... Time for JOYs. Yes, don't always have to learn in deep-rutted hardships all the time. This has drained me.... Time to Play, and to learn the renewals that come through Positives. Replenish 'this' earthen vessel.
A few hours ago (while I typed this), a very old friend knocked at the door with a birthday card for me,... [/edit/]
So anyways!..... *smile*
I'm working through things personally. I'm making fantastic strides right now~ keepin' on swimmin'. I DO intuit that I have a Good Future that is still yet ahead of me. It's not going to be an overall doomy one. I have a destiny to fulfill, and I feel that in a way that is overwhelming and strong at times. The Best is Yet To Come. Yet to be revealed.
So, on a practical level? ...
My old friend from the past knew about a FREE shredding service that 'our' bank does once a month. She's willing to take me with all my old diaries and journals and papers, to have them safely shredded.... [/edit/] ... Thinking about just 'having it shredded' and resigning myself as having been a creature of the liminal worlds that hardly anyone knew or understood now. Nor knew they 'the Truth' thereof.... So much documentation there. *raaahhhhgh all my gemmy info-collections, which virgo-moon doth analyze to itsy micro bitsy-bitey pieces (as in, too much information? LOL, too many details? .., and which saggi-asc creates New Worlds and Visions for*
I'm ready to move on.... BUT do it in as Balanced a way as I can, this time. NO extremes or suddenly... unless, of course, it's "that good"... *ahem* But even then? ONE toe goes in, tests it. A little further, to see if it truly fits my ether-ballerina's slipper. {{{*heart*}}}
I bought me a book for my own Birthday Present... The Big Book of Christian Mysticism: The Essential Guide to Contemplative Spirituality by Carl McColman (c2010 MMcColman; publ Hampton Roads).
A LOT of what he describes applies directly to me. I am one of those born "mystics" who walk this earth and try to find their place in this world. He describes how difficult it can be when you're born different, in this way.
I have a very wide and Higher-inclusive view of the Deep-Love and Loving of God. Many persons have judged me for being a Jesus-girl here. It's true. I LOVE my Jesus, and always want to be able to Love on Him, as I 'See' Him.
I don't mind that others worship in whatever sacred space they respect. .... In the whole matrix, to ME, it's 'the same'... just coming towards it on a spiritual walk that is different in its approach. This was 'proven' to me, through my own personal experience where I had shunned every Jesus-Freak with the words, IF Jesus IS the Truth and the Light, then you don't have to worry about me~~ I'll Find Him. And IN a Dream turned Lucid, I found this to be absolutely true. Spirit. Spirit DRAWS you, then can cause a holy conversion EVEN when you are unconscious in land of sleep.
Even to my very dear fellow beloved preachers and evangelists, who exclude based on the fact that I will not 'hate' on people who believe differently than my own kind. I feel sad about that. So sad.
And this causes such pain.... I can see EVERYONE'S point of view in a REALLY FAIR WAY. It's my task to learn how to communicate to one and to the other what I see and feel.
There's a "reason" why the lunatic-fringe chased me around the lake-pond years ago. It was their identifying me (fairly) as a pentecostal spirit-filled believer who ALSO 'happens' to have burning-interest in astrology. I do understand. And!, a lot of people don't understand what I be when I say pentecostal spirit-filled either... so please reserve your judgments of me there, too. There are MANY kinds of ways to be-that. I shudder at some of the stereotypes? .. no. That's not how 'all' of them are. {{hug}}
And it would make me so sad to "have to" give up my astrology in order to fulfill and join a Community of sorts~~ because I DO need community in my life, especially now.
And it would make me so sad to "have to" give up professing my profound Love for God and all the teachings I've been exposed to during my faith walk, merely because it 'displeased' a few who weren't as privileged as I have been in my life to have had the VERY unique set of experiences I was led (by Spirit) into.
Redlines hurt. I have scars from not being able to Express to the world those things which are "me".... and I have attempted to do so, in this thread. I have been more happy here than any place else.
So anyways.... This is probably one of those diva-longs. ~ sorry. And I'm just gonna go ahead and post it, crossing-fingers.
The FULL MOON in Sagittarius at 11.47' occurs IN THE DEGREE of my Ascendant.
Time of calling an Ending to some things that came to full bloom.
That one (for me) is my relationship with rm. He's a REALLY heck of a nice guy~~ but I have things to learn, and a destiny to walk.
He's got two big sisters (well-financed) and a daughter whose noBS Capricorn rubber-meets-the-road Rules WILL enforce "healthy"!~whether he likes it or not. O yah, girl-power be upon his horizons. He got away with my kindness and lenient-ways. I tried to "entertain" and cajole him back into health~~ for him financially, as well as his overall life. Gave him lots of tools~~ all the tricks he can do for himself, to learn self-cooperation. I'm feeling a kind of guiltiness leaving him, because when you've spent ~8years together, you develop 'bonds'. He IS a nice guy. And generous in lots and lots of ways. His family will be lucky to have him aboard.
Freedom. It's mine.... I'm exclaiming it. Climbing down one mountain, and conquering what's next. Gonna go.
