I’ve never had surgery, but recently had two “procedures” involving local anesthesia and the cutting of skin. Or “snipping” as my dermatologist said the other day. Thanks, Doc!
But seriously, my doctor is expert and gentle, and I trust him, but I felt totally worn out on those cutting days. It feels like an invasion to be cut or scalpled; it’s not normal. And I didn’t feel a thing during either procedure except for the anesthesia needle. Ouch. And when I saw the blood-soaked gauze afterwards? Getting those long-wanted tattoos suddenly seemed a world away.
Sharp steely instruments are Mars territory so it felt fitting to me that as Mars entered a new sign the other day, Cancer, that I was dealing with a very Cancerian doctor and his, well, sharp steely tools. Also, Saturn rules skin and I’m having a Saturn square to my Sun, my self.
A kind reader recently privately emailed me to encourage me. She thought my recent posts seemed gloomy and gloomy I have been. Now, I don’t mind this mood. It happens. But what I do mind is if my writing becomes less interesting because of it. I did a bit more storytelling, less astrological, and as Saturn gets closer to my Mercury and Mars, I imagine that… well.. I guess we’ll see how it plays out. Will I become afraid to speak? Or censor myself? Or just blog more slowly? Or more seriously? Could I get any more serious? We shall see. The future awaits!

I always enjoy your writing. I come away feeling I’ve learned something or been touched in a deep way. I may not consciously understand what is going on, but I know it’s good. I hope you continue to be real and if you aren’t as prolific as before, that’s OK, because I’m having trouble keeping up on the reading and hate to miss your posts! 🙂
Thank you, Anita! I guess it will come and go, the prolific-ness! Esp with Saturn heading to square my Mercury. But I promise to be real 🙂 Saturn transits demands reality
..aw, I hope you feel better soon! I’m sure the recent slice-n-dice hasn’t helped either. Sending air hugs and soup your way 🙂
Thanks, EW. I admit to still feeling a bit weird, energy-wise. But yeah the weird-exhaustion from the slicing and dicing is gone for sure…. I’ll take the hugs and soup!
..yes, in short, be yourself is exactly what I was thinking. Would you agree it’s quite possibly the most important of human functions? I’ve been thinking quite a lot about these things. Becoming more human by going back to the animal, in parts of course. The jungle works due to each part of it functioning, being, like it should. A jaguar is not trying to be a koala bear. Bleh. I’m so in my head and body lately that I’m actually more human than ever? Thinking? Feeling? Scratching for outside answers while the animal stirs my guts? Maybe it’s trying to die. A friend tells me it’s like that at this age, 30’s. Being done with shit, rather, being done with the shit you can see as shit because shit will always be shit. Sorry for the poo talk.
Yes, I recall another post of yours saying you’ve been published in journals and the like. I mean super-published. Your very own baby to fit between bookends. Advances. Etc. Not that your accolades aren’t special, I just read your stories and want more. Lots. Books lots. That’s all : )
Thanks for your positive words, EW. I’ve just starting writing with astrology as my underpinning… We’ll see what the future brings I suppose. I have no interest in a how-to astro book or guidebook. But maybe down the road I’ll pitch something… somewhere… We shall see 🙂 The stories I’ve told here are just off the top of my head, literally. I do have a part 3 to my story about the English gent and his friend. Maybe will blog later. Been doing readings and a little under the weather today so slow to blog 🙁
Yes, so imp to be yourself and surround yourself with people who celebrate who you are, whatever it is.
..for sure! Just yesterday, I snapped my skin in the lock of a car door then two minutes later reached into my bag and got a paycheck paper-cut! Missed an exit and took a wrong turn. Bumped my knee and all the stuff in my last comment. This Merc Rx is bananas! I’ve never experienced it so personally.
I’m looking forward to seeing just how much more serious you can get. The stories you’ve been telling leave me wonder, ‘She’s not published, whyyy?’ 😉 That’s bananas too and while the kind reader was being kind, I hope you haven’t been discouraged from writing about doom and gloom. It’s truly alll good.
Thanks EW. She *totally* meant well, absolutely. I was touched. But it did make me wonder. Thanks though. I will continue to “be myself.”
I did publish some early on (poems) and had a handful of short plays produced but…
