SAGITTARIUS New Moon Journal

Thursday; November 27, 2008. Keywords: A fresh start, new beginnings, wishes & intentions.
Here it is; a very auspicious day. I'm up and ready to cook and bake. Of all things
that I am, I am very grateful; life is good.
Our menu today is very traditional; turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, sweet
potatoes, green bean casarole, waldorf salad, pumpkin pie, and lots of love and
laughs. God bless America and God bless everyone!
Waxing Crescent Phase Monday; Dec. 1, 2008 Keywords: development and building with some resistance and restraint.

Sunday; Nov. 30, 2008. Even though the Crescent Moon officially is not until tomorrow, we will be able to
see it tonight just after Sunset. Check EARTHSKY.
I had better look at my own chart today and see what the heck's the matter with me. I've been close to tears
for the past two days; depressed, sad, and rather hopeless. That's not supposed to be with a Sagittarius
new Moon. Of course, Sagittarius rules my 12th House so there may be a bit of leftover Karma in there along
with a dried up turkey leg.
I'd better get on with my intentions for this lunar phase; I read a wonderful bit in Guru Rattana's newsletter this
morning. He wrote:
The Sagittarius archetype represents our spiritual journey. The arrow symbolizes our life and our
spiritual destiny. Our soul aimed its arrow toward this human incarnation with purpose and intention.
Our human journey is to align with the direction of our arrow and to follow it to the end of this human
life. The New Millennium Being is copyright 1999 - 2008 Guru Rattana, Ph.D. http://www.yogatech .com/nmb/
I would guess that my intention for this lunar phase would be to find, again, "the direction of my arrow" and
then grab hold with all my might.

Monday; December 1, 2008. Ok, all better now. I think that the problem was that I was in the house from
Thanksgiving night to this morning. I think I may have been "housebound!" We Capricorn risings with Saturn
opposite the lights can be a gloomy group, although Saturn in hard aspect to any personal planet can reflect
a sad sack unless one can get a handle on it real quickly and turn it around.
I've been on a small bit of antidepressants for many years. Usually it keeps me from being totally depressed,
but, for some reason, this weekend was a reminder of what can happen when I'm not on them at all. I urge
any of you who may be trying to buffalo your way through a period of depression; forgetaboutit! Go see your
doctor and, at least, try antidepressants. I wouldn't for years and what a stupid bull I was. Now, I'm not only
the poster girl for breast cancer, but for depression and women's heart attack symptoms, too! Let me tell
you, friends, I've been around the block a time or two. You need to listen when I bellow:
Tuesday; Dec 2, 2008. One of my favorite books is Secrets from a Stargazer's Notebook by Debbi
Kempton-Smith. I read it at least once a year. One of my favorite chapters is, The Sun--where you are
going in life.
When I forget the direction of "my arrow," all I have to do is read her line from Sun in the 5th House:
"God stuck you here on this earth to be sunny, damn it, to experience joy and to give it out to the
rest of us."
The Sun, ruler of Leo and the 5th House, is a mystery to my way of thinking. The 5th house is a night time
House from the hours of about 10pm to 12am. I would expect the Sun to rule the 12th House, or the
9th/10th where it is out and about. I mollify myself to that little quark by knowing that it WILL be rising in
about six or seven hours from the 5th House.
All the above go along with my doubts about calling the 12th House, "hidden, secret and subconscious."
The Sun shines brightest there and is hidden in the 1st. Mystery, mystery!
Sat. Dec 6, 2008. As I read over the above, I noticed that I dated it Nov 2. Ye gods, my short term memory
is becoming longer. Yesterday I received a note from David of the Obama team and I joined the public blog
on myOB blogger. Of course, after I wrote four blogs, I erased two of them. I think that is the most
wonderful thing to do; listen to everyone by blogs. Sure, there will be some twits that will try to ruin it, but
they are everywhere. We'll just keep rolling along, singing a song, Side by Side!
Sun. Dec 7, 2008. Today we had the regular family get together here for pasta dinner. Len and I both
remembered this day when Pearl Harbor was attacked in 1941. Len was coming out of a concert in
downtown Chicago. He later was drafted into WWII after battle of the bulge.
I remember my mother crying and I crept up into her lap and asked what was the matter. She said we
would be going to war because of Pearl Harbor. I didn't understand what Pearl Harbor was; I thought it
was a lady! I was only four, but it made a deep impression on me. Never saw Mom cry before.
Len put the flag out.
First Quarter Phase of the Moon Friday; Dec 5, 2008. Keywords: challenges, decisions, resolve
|

Mon. Dec 8, 2008. This morning I read a great article called The Tyranny of "Why?" by Gregory Anne
Cox. Read it HERE. Reading The Tyranny of "Why?" I realized how wrapped up in tyranny I have been all
my life with Pluto, ruler of my 10th (father and authority figures) in my 7th House of intimates and enemies.
Of course, I also realize that it's my chart and some would say that shows how I view things and perhaps
not how they really are. No, folks, that's how things really are.
It is starting to take me a couple of hours a morning to read my mail and the news. If I have to do my
website, it's another couple of hours. Well, what else should I be doing, but what I love?
Today, just before 2:30 EST, the Sun will sextile Chiron spotlighting a healing time If you have any healing
rituals, prayers, or meditations, this will be a great time for them. Reiki, Massage, Yoga, Tai Chi, and EFT
are among the many systems that you might use. Of course, Bach Flower Remedies are wonderful
healers when used as prescribed. You can do so yourself or I will be glad to prescribe your formula based
on your birth chart. See; BACH FLOWER REMEDIES.
Gibbous Lunar Phase Tues Dec 09, 2008. Keywords: adjust, refine, & edit.

Wed Dec 10, 2008 It's about 11:30 am and it's raining cats and dogs. I've read my mail, edited my site,
and now I'm waiting for the rain to stop so I can run some errands. There is a drought by my sister again
East of Cincinnati. I wish we could send up some of our rain.
Whoops, a big clap of "thunner!" Time to get off this computer until it passes.
