*+-I go through phases. We all go through phases (do we? There’s got to be a better word) and right now I’m in some kind of beauty phase or Venus transit or maybe it’s a health transit, more 6th House related but hmm it’s both. It’s definitely both. It started […]

*+-This is Day 3 of no caffeine for me and actually it’s no big deal. I feel calmer, not headachy. I don’t miss the buzz or the desire to “get high” — yes coffee most definitely made me speedy. Even one cup a day. I’m not having transits to my […]
Some weeks ago I introduced my Mars in Virgo (Direct!) Challenge: how’s it going? Did you start something new? Or leave something behind/quit? I quit smoking. Click here for the link! to the original post *** I’ve been writing about the 6th House/12th House axis lately, and I realize it matters […]
*+-I am sooo thrilled that people liked the previous post. It got to be so long that I was thinking: who the hell is gonna read this? But some lovely comments showed up so thank you 🙂 Work and money have always been obsessions for me because they were so […]
*+-I finally got enough sleep last night and I finally realized part of the problem — the weather changed dramatically this week and I needed to turn the air conditioning on. And it wasn’t the heat — it was the humidity 🙂 I’m that sensitive to temperature change. Also, the […]
*+-Domestic animals, the care of the body, the health of the body Just a quick post before I get to work. Busboys, butlers, cafeterias… Writing gets me started in the morning and I wanted to continue my series on the 12 Houses. We’re up to the 6th House Cats, cooks, […]
*+-Metaphor for today: Mars Retrograde is like a confused boxer. When Mars entered my 1st House, I joined a gym and have been strict and disciplined with my gym-going to the point of excess. I do have a natal Mars Jupiter square, by the way. Mars and Jupiter in tense […]
*+-When the faster moving planets are transiting your 6th house, you can expect to be busy and especially busy with routine matters, details, work, Virgo stuff. With transiting Venus in my 6th house, I find myself busy in this way but not in a fun Venus way — more like […]
*+-And this was a pit bull who was licking my face and licking my face and licking my face. Say what you will about this breed, but a well-trained, well-loved pit bull is a smart, loyal, sweet sweet pet. With a tremendous amount of energy. I call her sweet potato […]
*+-Disclaimer: no Virgos were harmed in the writing of this blog post My roommate is sleeping as I type this. I can hear her snoring from the other room. I’ve just made my coffee (too weak), and I’m tired. Was up around 4 a.m. and couldn’t get back to sleep […]
*+-Mercury opposition Neptune calls up the Virgo/Pisces axis (and themes) in general. “Calls up” is a fine figure of speech in this case since we are talking about Mercury the messenger! And think of it like a phone call, okay? Mercury and Neptune are, will be, calling each other. Call […]
*+- Little things make me happy. For example, my roommate buys the cheapest hand soap possible. We have dispensers in both the kitchen and the bathroom and she buys a huge jug of the shit and refills. She’s a quadruple Taurus and cares about the earth. What bugs me though […]
*+-What did you learn? Do you ever ask yourself this question? Say you worked at a job for 10 years and it had its ups and downs and the steady money kept you from becoming homeless but you weren’t exactly happy and then something new is born in your life […]
*+-Neptune through a House shows us what we’ll take care of. Remember: Neptune serves. Neptune is compassion, BIG compassion. Neptune through my 6th and I took care of animals. The 6th is the house of pets (small animals). Of course a Neptune transit is LONG but that’s what it became […]
*+-Barbara’s comments about Virgo Moon on this post made me think and inspired me to return to the topic of Virgo. How meaningful the little things are in life. Funny we call them “the little things.” The 6th House, Virgo’s natural house, is the house of “small animals,” our pets. Yet […]
*+-Are you an early riser? Do some signs wake up earlier than others? Who longs to stay in bed the longest? For me, it’s always different. If I haven’t slept well, and this happens frequently, due to frisky cats waking me up, or not, then I want to sleep until […]
