| January 26, 2009. Keywords: Fresh start. New beginnings, dreams, and intentions. A solar eclipse is a humongous new Moon when the Moon is inbetween the earth and the Sun. I say it's humongous because it usually only happens twice a year and we can't always see it. This year the path is in Indonesia, Philippines, and South Africa. See some great pictures. HERE. I haven't had a moment's time to write in this journal. I played bridge all week and worked for Unity for Change in the kitchen on Saturday; more bridge on Sunday. I haven't even looked up how many points we won. |

| Crescent Phase of Aquarius new Moon Friday;Jan 30, 2009: Keywords: development and building with some resistance and restraint. |
| Talk about resistance; I really don't have a thing to say. I haven't even made an intention yet. "I'm as listless as a willow in a wind storm." I'll wait a while. Maybe I'll find inspiration today. |
| Sat; Jan 31, 2009. I don't believe what's going on in my life, but my chart is showing it. Natal Pluto rules my 10th and 11th Houses of career and groups. It is in my 7th house of intimates AND enemies. Today transiting Mars is opposing Pluto and tomorrow it will conjunct Jupiter. Notwithstanding, transiting Pluto is almost exactly making a t-square between natal Libra Moon opposite Aries Saturn. I'm screwed! Many are leaving our Obama group because of seeming infighting and toasted, accusatory e-mails between some members that are sent to all. When some leave they write nasty accusations. It's a mess. I sat down this morning and wrote this to one of them: I am so disappointed that this group fell apart so quickly and I simply wish we could start all over again. This is not the way it should continue between people either in small groups or between countries. How can we expect world peace when we can't even find it within a group such as ours? It shouldn't matter who's right or who's wrong or what's been said or who said what. Let's start all over and swallow our "rightness" or "wrongness" as quickly as we can. We need to mean it when we pledge (DELETED) We're just following in the same old, same old pattern of mankind since the beginning. Jeeze, will we ever get it? I'm ashamed of all of us. We're intelligent, good, law abiding, compassionate, able people and we're acting like whiners and quitters. Ye gods, Obama would be so let down. I think we should all have a meeting and eat together; maybe even pray together, so that we can become the good leaders that this country and (DELETED) so sorely need at this changing time. Please think it over and let's try again. Let's try something new; (DELETED) Then my computer is all messed up from an AOL tech that had me do all kinds of changes to it because AOL was not bringing up my website. Come to find out that AOL browsers are not working for many websites built on Yahoo since the 29th. Too bad AOL doesn't let its techs know. AH, " This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it!" My intention is to stay calm and send blessings to all who are not "getting it." |
| Sun; Feb 1, 2009. I'm calm. I'm so calm, I'm depressed. I don't even care if the groundhog sees his shadow tomorrow. That's calm. AOL has send me a feedback e-mail on their tech. I'm so calm that I'm not going to tell them, HE RUINED MY COMPUTER AND THEY HAD BETTER FIX THEIR BROWSER!!! Now, I'm calm again. |
| Wed; Feb 4, 2009. Ok, got the word this morning via e-mail; our group has officially gone kaput! Wow, that is resistance and restraint alright. Now, I have to review my expectations AND judgments. If I hadn't had expectations or judgments, I wouldn't be disappointed. So, there you are! This is what is happening this week on an itty, bitty, scale. Imagine what is happening on the largest scale. Well you can read about it every day. By tomorrow, Saturn will make its exact opposition to Uranus and we have to reaffirm our stand for change or fall back into the "business as usual" mode. If I keep to my no desires, expectations, or judgments, this will all straighten out? Maybe not, but I will be happier and that is contagious. It's time to meditate. See; MEDITATION |
| Thurs; Feb 5, 2009. This is a day strong with aspects; Saturn Rx oppose Uranus, Sun semisquare Venus square Pluto. |
| Venus will square Pluto today and the Sun will be exactly 45º between them. I hope the Sun gives them light because today Pluto makes a grand Cardinal cross in my chart at 3º Cardinal (rounded to the next full number). Since transiting Venus is on my Saturn today, I will read Aries 3º by: Chandra Dhi Manthri Your purposes are grand; you see great works and the means therefore. But that which is little and petty must first be disposed of, and time escapes you. You are bold and decisive of spirit, ambitious and able; but always there is impeding detail. You must rise from your shackles and claim your birthright of high estate...Be as cautious in signing your name as in taking your mate. Make appetite your slave or it will be your master. |
