Sometimes I can't decide which smilie to choose for my post.

*
Heh heh.. I don't get out much!
And, that's kind of hard with the Pandemic.

*
Ah.. the plight of the Elderly
who have no one to support them at end of life?

I recall one youtuber person who had (with a kind of bravado) said that ANYONE who dies alone, without folks who care being around them in their life-passing, was an "unloving" person, and didn't deserved it.

Then, the COVID pandemic hit, and I SAW how people were dying ALONE. They did NOT deserve that!

"Being unloving" is far from true in my own case.

Throughout my earth-time, I've been a Gap-Filler.

---
I'm not really feeling all-that sad right now. Just a "deepness" .. accompanied by my 'mind' trying to figure out things that are really impossible for my own self to accomplish.

I have appreciated the etheric-presence of of folks here.

Sun just entered LEO.
I'll be having my Progressed Sun birthday next month.

{I have heavily edited this post, and those of previous page. Thank you for those who had read, and left kind supportive comments. *hug* You're the Best!!}

I have just read this very last post of yours and I wanted to say something to you so that you don't feel sad.

I know nothing about you, your character, your life, but I sense from your post that you want to help people, because you are a communicative person and you are sensitive to pain.

I totally believe that you can understand what others need, but besides your valuable advice and guidance, do you know the ways to give love?... Can you give a lot of love not only to one, but let's say two or three people every day or is it going to tire you and you would choose to be left alone with your thoughts?...

I really hope I'm not being misunderstood. You were the first person to welcome me here a couple of months ago and I haven't forgotten that. I'm not in my best moments, but I felt that I had to write to you.

Eternal Energy ..
You are so sweet to say that.. Thank you SOOO much.

Actually? .. The *Sads* I feel are from the electrical kind of engulfing nervebody-pains I go through here-- It hurts each and every day of my life!!! Feel so sick sometimes. It's constant. Sometimes when I express emotions that are sadder, it's that I am painfully-stimulated by the shaking-vibrating *sonics* from neighbors that I have NO control over... Otherwise, I'm a "relatively" put-together person.
awww. You are sooo sweet to care like that.

Yeah. I use this thread to talk about various things. Sometimes the discussions are on astrology (asteroids), or some political things. Talk about some Current events.

I talk about my life, and things I do now, or, did in the past... Usually, while I'm writing, I'm actually helping to 'teach' some lesson on Life, while I do it. Maybe inspire people to activities, or just "touch their Heart." ... I'm hoping that through reading, and through imagination, I can help others in some personally-valuable way.

I do like to help folks who have self-esteem issues. That was one of the most major lessons for my own self. I remember what that's like. I don't want people to feel bad. They 'deserve' to accept themselves as they are. And to feel the 'strength' of that. And they are NOT at-all alone.

Yes, EVEN in imperfections, we are Beautiful, and perfect-in-the-moment AS we are. We are Human.

If I could just HUG people who hurt, and help them FEEL good, and okay, and Valuable, I'd DO it.
But! ... COVID doesn't want hugs!!! It's so mean!!!! haha

I would hug people who are Happy too--- to Celebrate JOY deep-within.

I can send AIR Hugs, and LOVE.

I don't have to go out to choose people to love. I love everyone automatically. It's part of what and who I am. Makes the world a Nicer Place to give others a passing-smile, and make positive eye-contact. Friendly small wave. Don't even need 'words' for that. It speaks an international language that needs no interpretation. People remember kindness in their memories of others.

Thank you so much for your own Kind comment.

My dear friend mirage,

If this man that you are living with, is probably going to move away, then you have to do something to assure that you are going to live a good life in the following years. Perhaps you shouldn't waste any more time keeping yourself busy with other things and focus only on what you can do to help yourself. Start now that you are still there, because when things change you will not know what to do.

You need love and attention and everything. But you need a person for these to show you how it is done and then you will follow these steps and you will do it in your own way. This means that you have to focus on somebody who has received love in his life and he is following the same path.You can still go on loving the whole world. Nobody is going to take that from you. But now you have to focus on yourself and what is the best for you.

What you say, is VERY VERY Real.
It's part of what terrifies me.
I really cannot do anything of/by my self in this.

So. I'm terrified-- being older, and without options.

Thank you for your comment.

You seem a talkative person. You have to start talking to...everyone! Give them your valuable advice. Give them what you know best to do. But do it directly. Face-to-face. Not in written. Start talking to everybody. I am absolutely certain that someone is out there looking for you!

omg, the *sonics* are sooo strong today!!! *sad, tears*

You said---
"Promise to do something for yourself so that you are going to have the life that you want?"

Eternal Energy.....
In "reality world" .. I have no idea 'what' I could do to have that happen.

{What a ~strange day! }

BTW, there are a couple people who read this particular thread, who have told me they would have helped, but they are in a position where they can't-- even though they wanted to.
*Heart* to them

You have to do whatever it takes to save mirage29 right now. She is sad and scared. She needs you to help her. She is calling you. You have to go.

Don't tell me that you are going to leave her just like that. You have to help her. Find a way. Any way.

I don't know Randall, you must know him better, but I bet that he is going to do as he said and give you these contacts. He must surely be a man of his word that you can totally trust.

Otherwise,what kind of Racaprandall would he be!

See? Everything is going to turn out as it has to be!

Yeah, Goats are trusty and loyal.

I have readers who are not registered LL'ers. My contact info is held by a handful of folks outside LL.

Someway, Somehow, through the marvel of internet and networking, there's a Solution to all this.

Thanks one more time for your helpfulness, thoughts and encouragement, Eternal Energy. -- All will work out.

You Made A Difference.

Decided not to accept money for the reading I did for that very Elderly man. I don't want to financially cause ANY kind of stress on a Senior. They have it 'hard-enough' as-it-is in this draconic USA Economy. I'm not going to financially give them burden. I Blessed them, instead.

He had out-of-blue "thought" of me?
Happened as the Sun in Cancer hit my Vertex and Uranus Cancer H8,,,
just out-of-the Blue, like Uranus.

I enjoyed being given the sudden Challenge of the moment.
I got to see 'what' I knew, what I could do with "just a date" and data for Natal Chart. With some logic {as I'd fun-read for this man years ago}, and the knowledge I've accumulated over my years involvement steeping in the astrology--- it was fun. And it was my pleasure.

*~

And I am overwhelmed again today.
Life stands still because of that immediateness--
isn't going anywhere when the nerve system has too much going on!! Steals attention from tasks.

ALL of my inner resources have increasingly needed to be directed towards the body defending (attempting to protect) itself against mech-tech sonic nerve-assaults from the environment.

Makes for too many weights, burdens.
Isolated feeling.

Mirage, why don't you do some readings and charge a fair price? You are a great Astrologer and can provide a personal touch not available anywhere else for any price. I can let you market here at LL.

Dear mirage,

I was thinking of you today and I wanted to ask you since morning how is your day today.

My dear mirage, if a very elderly man asks you for a reading, that means that you are an expert on this! That also means that you can do a lot of things with such an asset in your hands! Take action! What are you waiting for???

Hey mirage,

I am so busy right now. When I'm done and have time on the internet, I'm typically too tired to do much more than watch something. Not even educational stuff, just junk food for the brain, for the most part.

I will say I can completely understand why you didn't charge that elderly guy. But if he's pleased, maybe he'd be willing to recommend your services to someone who can pay?


x

Granted, I doubt there's enough disposable income for you to get much that way, especially now. Those that really go for the money (with gaudy ads and displays) tend to be unethical and even dangerous to the competition (and as a psychic I once knew learned, people were a lot more willing to pay for what they wanted to hear rather than what was true, and strangely to me, women were preferred younger, though I personally saw the crone as wisdom as well as experienced and would've felt more comfortable with someone older myself, and while I'm in a minority, I can't be unique).

But it can still help to have some extra cash, and with some luck you might get a lot that way, and/or hear of an opportunity or meet someone with connections (and you could promise say 12 free readings if they got you into a better place or some such--some people can do it easily, but be very careful, especially as the scammers might just tell you they can and work with crooked landlords to charge you money for credit background reports when they just split the money themselves because they never intended to let you move in). At the very least they might know someone who can facilitate help in moving in to discount homes for the elderly (surely there are a lot of openings coming...), and they'll be important for things like deposit (which is easy enough to get a fair loan for--though save the receipts and get a copy of the repayment plan/contract, naturally--which you'll probably need no matter how subsidized it already is).

Also consider barter. I've gotten a lot of amazing stuff through barter, stuff that would cost far more than what I'd have been paid (like when an old man--but rich--hired me to assist him on some real estate projects while he was in Mexico, and he gave me an entire computer that cost hundreds because he'd already gotten a new computer and didn't really want the one he gave me for my services anymore anyway).

Thanks so much!

Randall,
"can provide a personal touch not available anywhere else for any price.
I can let you market here at LL."

{{ }}
"marketing" -
That is generous thankyou!

"personal touch not available anywhere else for any price"

BINGO! That's important feedback!
When you're a 'business' there needs to be a 'distinction' about the product or service you supply-- the reason 'why' a reading with me is different from that offered by other people who sell on the market.

I've been trying to be observant of the way I approach someone's chart. I know the blend of other astrology angles that I use, depending on what information or experience the other person wants or needs.

It was "sensitive" of you. Thank you for your valuable feedback. That was a Key I needed to begin to nail down what is provided by my work..

Eternal Energy,
Thank you for thinking of me. You made an interesting point-- "if a very elderly man asks you.. "

Yes. I was honored that he remembered me after those years had gone by. He and his wife own their own business. Also do Good Work in their community.
.. He remembered me from an answer I gave him a handful of years ago. Turned out in that case, the insight I provided was correct. ... That's how he remembered me with this one.

I was surprise at how my mind and intuition were able to clear, and to laser and lock-in on 'what' was special about that day.

As far as it being "an asset"-- for me, it showed I had it in me.

*~
Pixie Jane! Hi!!
Realistically yes, I'm aware of how hard it is to make a livable wage doing that. (Looked into it back in 2016.) It can provide some extra cash on the side.

In All-----
I'd need more Education----
* Deeper knowledge of computer basics;
websites, laws/legal issues to understand.
Even to be able to work from my home would be GREAT. This-alone would open vistas to me.
On a job I did in the 1980s, the company hired a consultant to come alongside each employee, to teach them the MAC system. The man told me he had been a teaching consultant for decades and he had never come across a student that absorbed as quickly as I had.
He and I had a system--
~ He'd show me.
I did it, and 'on my own' could figure out in front of him what the 'next' would be.
When I'd get stuck, he'd take the reins again, showing me next steps... until I got that and went ahead to further steps of learning.
He said he was teaching me very advanced things-- further than anyone else at that company.
.. I have a 'knack' at so many things.
A Mentor was an 'efficient' way for me to have speed in learning these things.
Seeing, then doing it myself hands-on, and practice-- anchors what I've learned.


Astrology
* Need to nail interpretations in western a little deeper.
I have a kind of instant-familiarity with some kinds of charts--
I don't even have to refer to a book for those. It's instant.
---
There are charts that are more foreign for me to look at. They have other modal-combinations of elements that I am not as 'intuitive' at discerning. I'd need deeper study of some generational presentations.
Part of that is--?
.. Some of those are further away from my natal; so it feels more foreign.
--- The other thing is? It's just a simple lack of practicing and experience AT those types of chart presentations---
That's the basic of it.

* Want a good basic working-knowledge of Vedic.
* (Maybe, it would be good to add some Horary to my knowledge and skillset.)

Go deeper and cinch SR's, vocational, business, relocation; fixed stars, eclipses. I've dug into those (on my own).

I very much like predictive astrology.

Schooling --
I was a double major at University working at two separate bachelors.
Had come within a semester to grad with Psych, {plus many credits towards MA}, but ALL that is lost now. Plus, there have been developments in the field since I left it. Still have good knowledge-- and an understanding of it.
{I liked research the most; history and systems.}
. .
I had only had 3 credits (on class left in theory/harmonics) for Music, but that now is completely out of reach. Music skills need to be constantly practiced. Once I left schooling, then.. never had access ... for a clump of years, it all left like water under bridge. It's something that needs to be constantly kept-up with.
At this point,
I do not consider myself skilled at an instrument.
Could teach a beginner the Keyboard.
Could probably help a singer.
..... omg.
That reminds me of a story!
Some of you already know I had spent time as a postulant {beginner nun} in a cloistered monastery. For different segments of hours, we would gather in the chapel to "chant the hours". (sing)
.. So one day, the Mistress of Novices took me aside under the Novitiates stairwell -- {It was a gorgeous HUGE older stone-mansion, gorgeous millwork and high ceilings, wood floors, huge fireplaces in certain rooms, built around 1900}.
The Mistress had taken me aside, and told me she was having a problem reaching some singing-notes, and could I help her? I immediately said YES, and I knew exactly what she needed-- to put more air into the notes she sang. She did a few notes for me, saw/felt the difference--- then. oh oh.
. . The Mother of the House "caught" us.
I had ALREADY been under Warning, that I was NOT to give advice or teach; I was warned that I was the 'lowest' person in rank, and NOT to have "more knowledge" than the person just-above me in pecking-order.
. . The Novice Mistress was punished for asking me to help her. .. As for ME?, The Mother took a different approach this time-- She put her feet up on her desk, crossed her ankles, laid-back in her manager-chair-- She looked at me with far away look. Said that I was actually very valuable to the Community-- That this religious order was going to need my skills {business, efficiency, etc} in the FUTURE-- but not NOW!! *laughing hard* .. I had to act like I knew nothing {humility??}.
-- I wound up having a health scare July 26 or 28 that year, during a time of being outside the walls. {They would dip you in an out for the first year.} I had taken a long walk somewhere during a HEAT wave, wasn't hydrated, nor used common sense wearing a hat, etc. and .. it made me sick the next morning. My heart wasn't beating correctly, when I went to see the allergist after work that day. The doctor sent me immediately to the emergency room at hospital-- It "just happened" that one of the older nuns had taken sick and was in same emergency room. Mother of House found out, and said they can't have a {younger} sick nun entering their community; and they rejected me.
.... awww. That was a terrible emotional trauma.
I was due to take my first set of Vows Aug 12, and to have entered the Order for 'life'.
...

continuing..
. .
Strange enough was that the astrophysics classes I took for non-math majors has a very wide parallel to astrology.
. .
Cool enough was that the Dean of the Philosophy department sought me out and had offered me a teaching-fellowship {that would have included housing} if I had pursued upper degree in Philosophy. It was a combined program that would have graduated me with PhD in it.
.. Actually, his offer kind of shocked me. I hadn't been aware that he really knew me!! haha. I took two classes with him.. I remember the frustration of stubborn debates!!! LOL Maybe, I have a 'way' of putting things, that had attracted his attention.
. . .
The Vocational test given in freshman year showed that I wanted to become EVERYTHING!! lOL.
I also had interest in Earth Studies, and Women's Studies.
///


Material Realm --
* To set up, I'd need equipment, software.
{I have some computer pieces, still in the box as described in previous posts. I am just at a 'loss' at how to put everything together-- WERE I to have space to set those up. .. The SONICS here are TOO Gnarly ANYWAYS.
* Already have a lot of astro books collected over the years, but-- need some more-specific textbooks to fill-in what's missing.

All of those above things.. ?
IF I don't have a good place to live for my Health, then NONE of this can happen.
Would have been nice if had "perfect-for-me" Senior housing--
Or some kind of other offer to live with someone who had AMPLE room, and to whom another person there would been a boon and not a bother.


All of the Above, are things that tussled in my mind.

For work to do, I wouldn't mind learning how to work in other fields either. I am a flexible person.

I have natural business ability.
.... Just ....
Don't ask me to do something dishonest.

I love cooperative atmospheres; the sense of being 'family' in this. People who are positive and support each other.
ZERO No-stab-in-the-back to get-ahead types. That is repulsive behavior!!! It interferes with 'actual' WORK and accomplishment. No excuse for that. Loving and Good attitudes go a LONG way.

Also, in my enthusiasms, I must take care that I am not biting off more than I could chew.

Thanks for reading.
Thanks for caring!

Christmas in JULY (July 25)

LL's Christmas Countdown Clock
- http://www.xmasclock.com/

(music) Once in David's Royal City (Phillip Lester, guitar, instrumental) [2:55] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5xoy-7SdG0

Quote:
Here is a melody originally titled Irby, composed around 1848 by Henry Gauntlett, a church organist in Olney, England who was well known for his music composed for organs.
The tune became a Christmas carol when it was paired with a poem by
Cecil Frances Alexander 1823-1895.
She was born in Dublin, Ireland and was married to an Anglican Archbishop.
She wrote over 400 hymns of which All Things Bright and Beautiful is perhaps the best known.
She reportedly wrote this carol for her godchildren.

Have A Good Weekend
