Fascinating conversation got started yesterday in one of the chat rooms–
(DO YOU KNOW ABOUT MY CHAT ROOMS? LOOK HERE! They are personal, private, fun, INTENSE supportive environments for astro/tarot lovers. I’m ready to start a third if you are! Email me if interested. You can join a room a la carte or invest in my new subscription service!)
But about the fascinating conversation: two Cancers talking! One Cancer lady was asking me how I MANAGE IT i.e. manage my emotions — having Sun, Mercury, Mars in the sign and an intense Moon Pluto conjunction in Virgo. (Moon and Mercury in mutual reception.)
She also has a Cancer/Virgo combo and a job where she has to be normal every day. More than normal. Intense professional. Capricorn Rising!
See, for the last ten years or so, I’ve had jobs where I can cry if the mood strikes (Cancerian heaven!)
And you know what? I really hadn’t realized before the answer I gave her. I mean, her question prompted me to think about it once more.
She said: I’VE NEVER SEEN YOU EXPLODE. She felt that my chart could be a power keg (due to all the emotional intensity) BUT — I told her — I don’t have oppositions in my chart so I’m not lashing out here and there and certainly not on-line. I lash out on the INSIDE. I’ve got a lot of squares. And supportive sextiles too. AND, I added, if it happens anywhere, it will happen AT HOME (Moon = home. Pluto = tyranny). My conjunction is well-aspected though, all around my chart. Hurt my Cancerian tender feelings and yes I WILL GO PLUTO on you. But I have *to care* — I have to EXPECT MORE FROM YOU – to get *that* hurt.
AND THEN I HAD MY REVELATION as I continued to chat… that how I manage my storehouse of passion and intensity is HERE. In my work. Writing, blogging, working with clients, posting on Facebook, working with clients some more (exercising that psychic MoonPlutoness) sharing in the chat rooms. By sharing WHAT I HAVE. By sharing my RESOURCES, my passion, my intensity, my Virgoan sincerity. That’s how! And often in public (Cancer in the 11th House). Emphasis on SHARING. Energy exchange. So I need to get something back. I create a circuit and my clients and readers choose to keep the current fresh, moving, alive — WITH me. It’s a choice I make to put ME out there. And a choice they make to latch on.
What’s a Cancer — or other sensitive — supposed to do? What do YOU do?
Love, MP

I have a heightened awareness of how different I can feel from day to day and sometimes hour by hour. My Moon is part of many squares, but also has a sextile to Uranus. Iceland has a saying about its weather that best illustrates this: ‘if you don’t like the weather, wait 5 minutes.’
It took me years to figure this out. I think this is, by definition, mania. Being manic. I know I can be. But I do wait it out, and in the mean time employ all skills I possess to make the wait bearable. Diet. Exercise. Meditiation. etc…
I did wait my depression out. It took years. I plugged away at recovery and eventually I got there (there being a place where I could confidently say, okay I’m done. I’m through with that). I had to want it, and luckily I did. Waiting, like healing, takes effort. And inertia is not the same as waiting.
I can relate to that……I have my rising sign, moon and Venus in Cancer and sun in Leo, Mercury in Virgo and Mars in Sagittarius and Pluto in Virgo. Having both Moon and Sun in Cancer and Leo…..everything effects ME BIG!! I can relate to the crying part……..but as I get old….I have learned to live with it….learned to sort thru my feelings and Moon phases so I am not a nut case every 15 days. Thanks for your wisdom and explanations…..these do help a LOT, more than you ever know or realize!
‘I create a circuit’
I love that about you. As for myself, I wait stuff out. Sometimes I wait a long time…
Can you say more, Chris? What do you mean “I wait stuff out.” interesting to me…
