I’m doing a detox. Not sure I ever used that word before 🙂 but that’s what it is. I guess. Going off caffeine. Not because I want to but for a couple of health reasons *and* it makes me really nervous although the nervousness wouldn’t be reason ENOUGH for me. Health matters tend to wake a person up.
And I realize this is an appropriate thing for Chiron stationing direct today in my 6th House of health and daily routines, Chiron the Wounded Healer who could heal others but not himself. Well, I’m going to try to heal myself.
Are you paying attention to the early Pisces part of your chart? That’s where Neptune and Chiron are and thus aspecting, in particular, any planets you have in the mutable signs at those degrees. Do something *new* in that part of your chart.
Otherwise, Starwise:
The Moon is in Sagittarius and trine Uranus: emotional insights. Perhaps this is you figuring out what makes you feel secure and happy, at least for today 🙂
Mercury has retrograded back into Scorpio so if you are feeling any separation anxiety with the Eclipse being over and the Sun at 22 Scorpio now, entering the higher degrees of the sign, fear not! Saturn and the transiting Node also remain.
Looking ahead to Friday: Mars leaves Sagittarius for Capricorn and I am particularly looking forward to this because it’s a love house for me. Find Capricorn in your chart to know where you’ll get a boost, extra energy and action.
But back to the detox idea. Is there something (or someone?) you need to let go of? I type this and realize that I’ve got this situation myself, even more than giving up caffeine.
Remember, kittens, our next lunar excitement is the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Gemini. The letting go continues and I’m feeling that’s the theme of these two months, November and December, leaves falling, days shorter, and then in the new year, despite the winter cold, we start growing again, becoming. At least, that’s my hope.

I am working on my Readings page, trying to explain better what I *do* here. Take a look!

Glad you’re taking care of your health concern.
Thank you 🙂 It’s not life or death or anything but an irritation that is irritating. What can I say? I’m getting older by the minute. I have Virgo Rising – all that nervous energy catching up with me.
What a GREAT post – “the wounded healer who could heal other but not himself”. Yep, that’s me!! The other day I wrote about taking my mom to the dentist due to a cracked tooth. While there the hygienist mentioned I haven’t been in for some time & I explained I needed to because I have a cracked tooth as well. She squeezed me in & was stunned at how bad it it. Painful? YEP!
My mom is getting a crown & she’ll be fine. They can’t save my tooth. They’ll extract & insert cadaver bone, there’s nothing for the implant to attach to; however, they have to wait for the infection to clear up first due to an abscess. I knew it was abscessed because I lanced it with an Xacto knife a month ago when it was throbbing one night. They must all think I’m nuts, thank God their friendly.
Since my last dental appointment my kids, mom & husband have gone twice. I’ve even had my dogs teeth cleaned but not me. I’m not afraid of dentist or pain obviously & luckily money isn’t the issue – I just … haven’t. No specific reason other than “yea I’ll take care of that later”.
Maybe this was God’s way of getting me to the dentist because he knew I’d take my mom asap haha. Interesting thing is my mom & I cracked the exact same tooth only I’m losing mine. Chiron conjunct my moon in Pisces 6th house. Service & mom, she’s healthy-ish. Me? Maybe not so much! Saturn rules teeth & right now it’s in my Scorpio 2nd house so I’m loosing something I haven’t taken care of but my Chiron dogs teeth are shiny 😉 Good LordI can only imagine what’s next LOL Great Post!!!
Maybe you are having a Saturn transit. Saturn rules teeth and bones…
Oh and your story reminds me of an ex b/f of mine who also did some creative dentistry on himself once upon a time. I had to convince him to go to the dentist and they pulled the tooth. It had to go. Very brave, you creative dentistry people! LOL
You are very kind when you call us “creative dentistry people”. My daughter says I practice “Arts & Crafts” Dentistry because I used a scrapbook Xacto knife, it’s thin & VERY sharp but not too long if it slipped.
It was alarming to me when this boyfriend described what he did to his tooth. Actually he didn’t go into detail but I knew it was ***wrong*** 😉 And I said to him, totally seriously: THIS is a dealbreaker for me i.e. a man who won’t do BASIC health-care? Not saying you are that way. But that was the conversation I had had with him. I remember it well, like a typical Cancerian. I was on my way to walk the greyhounds… Who knows? He may have used an Xacto knife as well!
Oh I just saw you mentioned Saturn ruling teeth 🙂 Guess I read too fast!
GOOD LUCK ON YOUR DETOX & I hope your health is ok. I need an emotional detox. I need to let go of “that” memory/desire around “that” person, hell it wasn’t even my person!! It’s not as heavy but it still lingers.
BTW – MONTHS ago during a reading I mentioned off-hand about my cracked tooth & you told me Saturn rules teeth & it was moving into my 2nd house soon so there could be more to this if not dealt with before then. Great advice, I just didn’t listen. Unfortunately I’m kind of like Scarlett “I can’t think about that right now….I’ll think about that tomorrow.” Well….it’s tomorrow.
At least there’s a plan in place now. Saturn rules the long-term plan too 🙂
My health is pretty good. Blood tests were good. But I have this one persistent issue that I want to get to the bottom of. Have a doc appt in Dec with a specialist. He’s so special I have to wait *that* long but I think giving up caffeine is helping already.
I’ll be doing a 14 day elimination diet/detox program that my MD suggested in Dec or January. I’m already changing up some things in my health department. Both neptune and chiron are hanging out on my saturn/mars/sun conjunction in the 5th. Natal chiron is in my 6th and transiting chiron is about 9 degrees away (approaching).
I was just thinking of doing a detox too MP. I think I will wait until after Thanksgiving though. My Birthday is tomorrow and then comes the fattening, so I am sure when that’s all over, I will be happy to detox too! Am working with someone who will give me a “program” to try. And yes I definately have someone on I have just let go of yesterday, for good. I feel so relieved, like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders. I will always love them but letting go of the obsession and hope that one day things will change. STOP!
Best of luck with your detox MP!! Caffeine is a bitch to let go of but in two days all the headaches go away : )
Oh Happy Birthday Scorpio! Funny, I remember people’s signs but rarely the actual date lol
