Sweet candy kisses ..... Adios, for now.
About Me

I am a brilliant creation of the universe formed from the cosmic protoplasm sailing into eternity. I have two hands, two feet, a couple of great ears, and I'm clipping through life at a moderate pace; minding my p*s and q*s, crossing my t*s, dotting every i.

where'd everybody go?
not 'fraid o Scorpio . . .
must be those intense, interpersonal matters
keepin em still in deep waters
I'm here.
Free and clear!
well, actually. yes. go check neith's last blog.
heavy transits going down. not to me. but to other people i'm close to.
Another surfacing in appreciation of the Moon moving into Sagittarius!! We are living in "interesting times" for sure. This is some stellium in Scorpio right now . . . and we'll be seeing another in Sagittarius too in early December after Mercury moves into Sag after it's long stay in Scorpio. That should make for a merrier holiday season for Christmas . . . :-) It's my observation we'll all have opportunities to get in touch w/some very necessary darker places for awhile. Just remember all this introspection Scorpio style will be rewarded by the move into Sag! Anyway, Scorps are the only ones I know who really Enjoy lengthy bouts of introspection . . "-)
And I do my share of introspection...
Found a great user-icon of Saturn that I wish I could use here like Neith does with her Egyptian goddess.
Been busy, lots to do. Hope everyone else is well. :-) I've been away for a few days, helping my Moon-Saturn-10th in Scorpio and double Capricorn sister to set up software for managing medical and financial records in her practice. Going back again this weekend.
I like the illustration for this thread. Flying ships have always had special appeal to me. Not sure why.
jm, I commented briefly in one of the previous threads on the Pisces-Capricorn duality.
I began my day reading about the color of eclipse -- "Can you make a double negative of light? Would that be like waking from a dream in the wrong direction and finding yourself on the back side of your own mind?'' Anne Carson
and also reading about side effects
What if there were a drug the whole point of which was its unpredictable side effects?

and jm I loved your last picture the voluptuous woman in the gas mask

When I was a child, I spent hours drawing pictures of a culture that had flying ships as a method of transport - only those ships had balloons to keep them in the air. Drew those images obsessively for years . . . Did I say I lived in my head a lot?! :-)

All you have to do is set up a blog of your own, and then use your icon as your picture . . . and then we would have one more place to go! :-)
another place to go? i already bounce around the internet like a crazy ping pong ball.
but i'm game. c'mon, joe. everybody's doin' it, doin' it, doin' it.
you could put up all your beautiful eggs as inspirational pictures for us.
"When I was a child, I spent hours drawing pictures of a culture that had flying ships as a method of transport"
Oh, that reminds me of an on-line comic strip called Girl Genius which I've been browsing. It's described as a "gaslamp fantasy" with adventure, romance, and mad science.
I remember they had fleets of flying ships in Burrough's novels of Mars. They were powered by the "eighth ray". I remember how much I enjoyed the fantastic illustrations in some of those books.
I do think anti-gravity is technologically possible, though. I suspect it's a secret of the pyramid shape.

Are you sure there's an outside? :-)
My boss, who's a late Rising Libra with Mars at 4' Scorpio, was playing soccer on Sunday and hurt his leg. Later in the day, he called our office administrator, a Scorpio/Rising Gem (Scorpio in the sixth house). She was in the tub and ran to catch the phone, tripped, and wrenched her knee. Both of them are limping around the office.
I think that was the sound of MARS ON THE THRESHHOLD. Whenever Mars changes signs in a sensitive area of my chart, something clunks very loudly around me to let me know. Last time he went into Pisces (my first house), I was peeling something under a running faucet and nearly cut my finger off.

Loved those books & the illustrations were marvelous - what an imagination that man had. The Girl Genius is lots of fun too. I wonder if there's a connection between having lots of dreams about being able to fly around & drawing all those airships.

there have been times when i wasn't sure . . . :-)

LOL! I sure noticed when the moon shifted into Sagittarius today - it was like the whole world just lightened up! Maybe because that took place in my first house, and Venus is activated, hmmmmm.

Good thought. I've always believed in the value of tangents.

My bent dimension.

Don't think so.
Mars can = trouble sometimes. Agitation and what not.
Flying ships? I think they're everywhere.
Man puts wings on anything and tries to make it fly.
Insects dominate the world, you know.

It must be natural for people to create analogues to the features of the mind. The shifting viewpoint of flight, instant communications, a mass library of shared information. I've wondered if atrophy of inner sensing will be prevented.

I just read that bugs would grow much bigger if only the oxygen content of atmosphere was higher, as in primeval times. I wonder if anyone has tried to evolve a bigger bug.
Hmm, some people argue that a set of wheels for locomotion is unprecedented in biological evolution, and maybe true antigravity will be, too.

Well I guess it was huh KJ? Things sure did get really personal. Stabbing old friends in the back must have taken lot out of you. Well got to go and help mend the broken hearts you helped rip apart. I hope you don't lose any sleep over it. I don't imagine you will though.
Thanks FrIeNd,

LOL. The impulse to create something bigger has probably not escaped the insect domain, but maybe some inner good sense keeps it under control, knowing the power of these little things. They can be annoying. And all those wings are enviable, as if they were in good grace to be given this ability while the rest of us are left to creep and crawl.
Heheh. Come to think of it, we can also thank our feathered predator friends for helping to keep the maximum bug size down, too! Darwin to the rescue, each to its own taste and all that.
