This is a messy post....
I haven't proofed it, to organize paragraphs.
I know myself--- I would probably want to just delete the whole post.But it's better to take the chance to 'say'.. than to assume y'all are perfect mind-readers. LOL
Starting with an illustrative story---
Went to my volunteer job yesterday...
Was in the chair, in front of computer screen wrestling with the number of calls coming in, subconsciously aware of heightened-level of sonics (turns out the rooftop HVAC was troubled, and there was added 'debris' in the air from big trucks outside the window, plus the terrible resonance formed from cars in the intersection waiting on the light to turn...).
Now all of that was 'in addition to' having had to stand the jet-traffic, parties, firecracker celebrations, gnarly fridge, a minibus van that had idled for hours, the teen and his friends doing 'sonic-games' under the same roof as us on the end-row apartment-----
The phones had stopped ringing... I was waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting, ... then ... I realized 'how sick' my body felt in that instant. The headache and nerveSystem just having 'had it' ... And I felt so helpless...
Then.... my face watered. Yeh, there's a name for it--- it's called spontaneous tears (otherwise known ~maybe as crying?). Yeh... my face was crying... without me having connected-thoughts and emotions about it-- so I can 'stand' things I MUST tolerate?
I saw my Gemmy buddy supervisor (who's desk is in the cove-entrance) appear at our door-frame-- I perceived that it was just-simply to refresh and change what she was working on in that moment.
Coming over to 'just be present', basically. Nothing else. Maybe just wanting to gab a bit.
No one's phones were ringing. The air was pregnant for someone to break silence.
Now, I'm a bit of a comedian, and I know my Gemmy-bud LOVES dry humor. That is something she and I toggle back and forth with-- covering ALL kinds of subjects-- nothing barred.
I looked at her across the room there from me, and I said, 'I need a hug'.
Well, omg, if there's someone that will give hugs, it is SHE.
My face had ceased its tears. No evidence.
She said, what's going on? ...
At which point I broke down in these light tender tears watering down my face.
(And I know that she DOES know what's going on-- she is sensitive and considerate and aware of everything with me. I had started confiding things, about my living-situation, with her in little bits at a time, since last October when I had had the misunderstanding that rm was throwing me out?)
I said to her (and the two others in the room who were 'there' for me), it's the nerve-headache thing.... You KNOW the doctors said there is NOTHING that can be medically done to help me. I'm in almost constant pain (or extreme botherations) from my environment. ... I said, I'm so sorry about the fact I'm crying right now?, but things feel extra bad for me today.
She is such a sensitive strong encourager.
She said, NEVER give up hope.
Medical science is making NEW innovations, every single day.
At which point I quipped,
I know. 'Chiron' will be heading into Aries later this year!
At which point, everybody started to laugh with me. The new volunteer-recruiter person in the office said, YOU WOULD be on top of that, wouldn't you?... *light laughter*
Then my Gemmy said, oh yeah... I know the 'hood where you live is the Spanish section? She said, they LOVE their fiestas and celebrations... hinting at her empathy for 'what' I must have just gone through this past weekend, AND, for all the holiday parties we've just had.
I felt so cared-for in that moment.
The other new volunteer phone woman (an elderly retired re-firing-type Sun Virgo conjunct my Moon), made more comments about the 'hood. She said the name of a street? I said yes. She says, ah, she knows the main streets here VERY well.
(Street had just been in the news about home-invasion crime-- group of male youths with bats?)
Phones started having incoming calls again...
*back to work*
Yes. In that time period when I had the first tears start to fall, my phone hadn't received a caller for several minutes...
I NEEDED those calls to KEEP coming in--- focusing on the callers lets me compartmentalize and set the pain/discomforts into the background, while I concentrate with all my mind and heart on 'how' I can help this person seeking Right-resource advice (or, an appointment if they meet criteria), on the phone.
Been doing that for over a year now. *star*
Just before I slipped out of the building, my Gemmy-bud suggested lightly-gently to me...
Maybe it's time to think about making an appointment to sit down together, and begin the application-process for a Section 8 Housing for you? She added-- it takes 3 (even 4?) years-- there's a LONG waiting list. But at least, it will get me into the 'queue'?
.. I reminded her of the voucher-experience I had had, and the blackballing that my record was subjected to-- (for completely unintended 'situational' thing that wound up whistle-blowing, that got some folk 'revealed' for frauds-- let-go, fired, and eventually had some put into jail in its broader wake).
I have come to realize too, astrologically, that is an effect that my SN-Mercury opp Galactic Center does? .. Plus, I know several asteroids that relate to this too.. that it has been a really strong presence in my chart?
This woman is awesome...
She's been in that line of work for a Jupiter-Cycle.
I remember a call that came in and had stumped me. I asked. She thinks, grabs an out-of-the-box idea out of thin-air, and calmly said to ask the caller. The answer was YES.
*jawdrop-- firecrackers* *~spooky ~spooky ~spooky!!* LOL
She has known battered-women, and abused persons. Her answer is that Victims have 'a signature imprint' and tend to repeat errors...
Actually, we all think she's missed her calling as a psychic!! LOL
When I leave that relationship with her, I would love to give her a knick-knack small-crystal ball, in remembrance.
She made me cry (almost) the day I was trying to delicately 'explain' some things (in that crisis last fall) between rm and me... I was being very very careful and kind in my speech, and being 'equal' and fair about what I was saying -- and she pulls no punches and says dryly calmly (caringly), oh. you mean he's a narcissist?
Shock shock shock... stunned, and laughed.
I choked, took a breath, and said--
Okay. yeah. (omg. ... )
So.... I just thank God every day, for the insights this woman has given me, into people and hidden agendas, and into my own self. More places to realize where I need to grow.
~*~*~
So, I've kind of felt 'imploded' and crunched-in a bit here...
like a gasoline-container that has had its sides sucked-in by environmental physics phenomenon.
Being in this place, long long long term...
It is JUST time to say goodbye to it now. It's not just painful, every single every single every single day--- it has begun to wear INTO a place of feeling like giving up on a future for my life.
How can I do ANYTHING, without being somewhere that SUPPORTS my health, my resting, recuperating. Learning how to 'live' again?
I am NOT a depressed-person--- I am mostly very vibrant (with quietness too).
THIS is a red-flag to me, that if it's getting down to the place of me feeling like I've given up that there's a future for me??? ... well, it's time to turn... towards MOVING on.
....
I've been trying to go back into my inner-imprints memory files. I have traveled and lived in various places throughout the US.
I am also vividly recalling how it "felt" to be on the west coast...
* The Pacific has a way 'different vibe' and personality than the Atlantic.
* There was not a 'sense of home' on the west-ocean.
I recall that the 'history-vibe' was different there for me too? The East coast is (for me) has a much 'richer' warmer, older, even aristocratic vibe-- like a European flavor?
I would desire that my relocation KEEPS a Sag-Ascendant.
That is just SOOO me. Haha, 'The Quest'!
I have a Saturn Scorpio in the 11th House. I remember reading in Barbara Hand Clow's book that the 11th is actually the best spot for a Saturn.
I would WANT to be able to 'keep' Saturn IN the 11th-- if I had to, maybe just a tad-'touch' of the H12 cusp?
And-- I want my Saturn to be useful.
I know that a Saturn in H12 could accentuate or highlight an isolative, even depressive feeling for me? I need to keep myself LIFTed OUT of H12? and to be MORE involved with peers, collaborations.
I need to be among a group of souls, 'good-people' souls.. who are bright, and who Care.
I will always keep an interest in astrology.
I am intrigued by politics.. a bit. LOL
general ..
Publishing fields,
Imaginative arts.
Exploring various ideas...
(I am open to tweaking whatever?)
When I heard someone say a new side-project he was heading towards the other day, while I listened, I noticed how 'on flow' I had been when I thought about graphic-projects I had had ideas for --
tUranus is coming back to revisit that spot soon.
(My initial idea had a tie to using astrology with it...
but, willing to just do just 'plain vanilla'-- no astro, not as fun?
had that other loose-end dangling of the other idea-- not as glamorous.)
tUranus will be heading into Taurus to enter my 5th house. If I stay on the East coast, my relo will STILL have that in the 5th-- Creative, Arts flair to it.
After a while, it will surge my Venus Taurus.
I have Venus H5 quintile Uranus H8.
I know that this is one of the indicators of an art-kind of related talent. (As is my 10th Neptune conjunct P.o.Arts, and Urania on Spica.)
(When I say Art--
I'm talking about compiling visual graphics, and using music, writings, person's creative writings and lyrics, stories, films? -- I'll throw in Highly Inspirational Leanings ~perhaps???? *grin*.)
I know I'm pretty good at critiquing other people's work, and offer suggestions.
I'd love to work at some projects that involve any kind of Arts like that.
As I'd said before--- I KNOW I have sooo much (too much) still to 'learn'...
(sort of overwhelming to think, but not 'not-do-able').
I'm 'behind' on some basic technology (don't have equipment)-- and, with the right teacher or mentor, I'm a gobbling 'quantuum leaper' when it comes to learning.
First, I have to 'grok' it (go deep), but ONCE I understand some things on 'that' level-- the rest just naturally cascades and un-ravels. haha,
Going slow, going deep, in order to go fast.
I chunk-learn. I monster-eat? LOL. ...
*looks*.. a ketu-Mercury Gem'er?
I stop and rested a moment...
yep. ugh. My body still feeling like crap, still throbbing a bit. (Haven't taken tieylenol since yesterday... maybe I should go get some. Give my body some soothing.)
But I'm feeling MUCH better right in this moment, than what I had over the past 24 to 48 hours.
On one hand, I am behind on (more modern) living skills? ... I've been here over 10 years. The 'little' details of things will need to be refreshed-- and plans drawn out for what would be best for me.
Certainly too--- I have a life-long terrible time with understanding applications (of any kind) for the first time, forms, figuring taxes, etc.
{Thank God my Gemmy-bud offered assistance with understanding and filling-in some. -- And!, I had gone to a training for specific forms, last Harvest season. haha, she knows I'm a stickler for coding things as exactly-close as I can, for the work I do for them.}
I'm in a 'precarious' set of years too-- right now I still receive disability monies... which right now I AM physically disabled as far as horrible-*sonics* problems are... And sometimes I'm scared of me NOT being able to take 'just any' kind of place.
{{And! I know that my health re sonics IMPROVES when I'm in a place that is Right. I would really really really hope that I can re-gain some of my health that I gave up here, as *jets roar taking off over building*? hahaha)
The Section 8 places would be maybe even worse than here, with rm? Those places are dank, and in super-bad 'hoods.
Oh. Rm made good on his promise to give me my own computer for my backroom/bedroom. A monitor and desktop, Dell Inspiron, basic. I haven't taken it out of the box, because I KNOW I can't 'live' here anymore... An I have no idea 'where' I could end up. I thought I'd be nice and leave it 'in the box' so it could be returned, if needed.
I'd have to 'get rid of' my astrology bins, and journal-bins, in order to have 'fit' the computer into my room. A bit of an O'Henry short story there? about the pocketwatch and the hair-comb?
Before I would 'throw away my life'?? (Noooo), I wanted to give it a few more weeks, to see if anything 'shows up' for me, in terms of a prospect for a future?
{Believe me, this is sooooo twilight-zone--- I have NO tangible proofings that ANY thing exists in the real-world realm-- this is like taking it on faith, right now.)
I don't have a vehicle.
I was 'waiting' for a relo to renew my driver's license I had let go of. (They 'raised' the price from 25 to 80 dollars to renew your license... ).
Cost of vehicles are expensive.
Costs here are RISING-- apartment prices are going OUT of this world-- which is one of the reasons rm has decided to 'stay here' ... I can't 'do' here.
I realize how precarious my life is right now. It's like being a trapeze artist-- I have no idea if the plunge I take is to my detriment and actual real death, or if I'm going to be 'caught' and flung UP to new level, new pole. New life.
Rm drives, and I've been going with him on errands... After riding city bus for decades now, it makes me scared to see things from a car-windshield's perspective!! It's like, ~yikes! ~yikes! .. as my foot tries to stomp on an invisible brake on the passenger side.
======================== STOP ================
Okay----------
The Nightly News is on.
Speakerphones off my head.
I'm watching and hearing that there have been mudslides in California..
Oprah's house affected.
That 14-year old girl was freed!!! {{Thank GOD!!}}
So many tragedies right now.
Including politically ...
I'd be glad to receive offers ----
to add my energies to whatever could be 'most-needed' -- to 'help'?
What could I physically do-- for an organization, individual, or group-- that could do an end-run around my current limitations?
My God My God My God !!!!!
So many NEEDS in this world right now.
**PRAYERS going out for victims**
