Dear Neptune (et al in aquarius),

Regarding your transit of my dc-- I'm not sure where you're going with this.  I could use a little clarity regarding your intentions.  We've been in this relationship for a little over a year and you've not yet responded to my queries about where this is going.  I truly feel that if we're unable to come to a general understanding about this that I would prefer to give "us" some space and perhaps start seeing other planets.  

my therapist said talk in "I" statements,

Dear Uranus,

 You are a pain in the ass. Can I have a little warning sometime? You know, a twitch or vibration like Mars/Pluto does? Now there's a good friend. Now that you're in my 3rd House I am sure to be committed soon, so can you give just a *little* bit?

 Ta, love. 

Dear Pluto:

<<Insert Christian Bale rant>>

Sincerely, 

Togi

Dear Uranus,

 ENOUGH ALREADY.  The conjunction to the natal moon was annoying enough.  The combining it with the trine to venus was also craptacular. The opposite dance with the beginnings of the transiting saturn return? Yeah.  Okay I get the point.  Now please...STOP.

Dear Mars,

 FUCK ME

*SNERT!*  Good one, E!

Dear Pluto,

Okay, I'm all ashy.  Where's the phoenix?

LOL Elsa. Laughing so hard.

Dear Pluto,

I really wish you didn't feel the need to be the embodiment of The Tower tarot card.  While I appreciate your desire to make my life 'better', (and I am thankful for the extra leisure time) I believe you may have been overzealous while passing through my second house and making me lose my job, along with many of my co-workers, friends and family.  Also, while you were working on that, you accidentally brushed my then-boyfriend, who was then lost to the sands of time. Do be careful with the fragile things for the rest of my 2nd house stay.  Kthnxplease.

Love,

Lexie

Dear Saturn,

I get angsty about you.  I'm not sure what you're doing, hanging around my tenth house like you've been forever, but really, I'd like you just to move along.  Yes, I realize that'll put you in my 11th and that much closer to my Saturn Return, but you know, just get on with it.   I'd like the focus to get OFF my money/work life.

Love,

Lexie

(P.S.  I am aware that this request will likely backfire.) 

Dear Venus,

Keep it up!   And also, bring me two boyfriends.  Two should be able to do all that I need done. 

Your Girl,

Lexie 

Dear Uranus,

Haha, very funny. You just keep it up with your quirky "surprises" as you transit my 7th-- that "upsetting the status quo" is tremendously helpful to my relationships. I hate to break this to you, but um, actually I could do without it. My natal Pisces Saturn in the 7th could do without the disillusionment. 

U-r-anus= U-r-an-asshole.

Dear Moon,

Quit yer blubbering.

Thanks,

Jessica 

Dear Jupiter,

I'm so happy to see you again, how was your trip?

Please stay for a while because we've got BIG plans!

Love, Conny 

Dear Merc/Neptune

Step away from the bong!

Dear Mars,

 Last night was awesome!  Thanks.  ;)

See you tonight!

Dear Pluto,

Fine - foundationless pie in the sky intentioning doesn't quite cut it anymore.  Fine - there are practical long-term consequences and dark shadowy places to be revealed.

But terminal illness is just too much.  I'm not ready for this.  There's a life to be lived, a mission to complete.  You suck.  I hate you.

Er... what?

My closest friend has been diagnosed HIV positive.  It's devastating.  It has an ugly capricorn pluto stamp all over it.  I found out today, and I'm reeling.

donederin - I am so sorry. :(

Shit, donderin....    I'm so sorry.  (((donderin)))

Thanks guys.  Part of me feels a little ashamed to come into a public online forum and drop such a heavy bomb, and another part of me just wants to scream so that everyone can hear.

I love this person so intensly, our relationship is one of those destined friendship partnerships.  Maybe we were close in a previous life too, I don't know for sure because I haven't thought much about past lives until recently.

I am so angry though, because he was Superman.  He was above and beyond anything and everything.  He transcended - but sometimes he was so god-damned insufferable...  He was superman, you know, YOU could be superman too, why won't you?  That was the insufferable part.  And consequences be damned, he was going to accomplish the impossible, and HE was not subject to the consequences that frequently befall the average fool, because he was no fool, and God was in his corner like no one elses.

Well, I'm sorry Superman, but you're a human too.  And it's really f*ing disappointing to both of us.

So many saturn and pluto themes going on here it's un-freaking-believable.

Three months ago, my friend was there when all the buried grief of my sister's childhood death came up to the surface for reconciliation.  It came like a wave, surfaced, crested, and it was gone.  This 20 year ache found acknowledgment and peace.  I have this really sick feeling that it was getting me ready for something timely.

i'm so sorry, donederin.

(((donederin))) we're friends here. don't be apologizing for participating/sharing. thank you for doing so.

donederin, I'm so glad you shared here.  it's totally appropriate.

LOVELOVELOVE. 

Dear Pluto--

Please show our donederin your POWER side, your phoenix side, or bugger off completely.

thank you,

satori 

Mars,

You're real funny making your home in it's detriment. 

Someday I am going to piss you off reaaal good, and have the balls-to-the-wall, slap-your-momma, Christian-Bale-esque SEX my Leo sun and Scorpio ASC is begging for. 

Yeah, I "have" it all the time, but for once I'm gonna mean it. 

(

(I put that pic up of something I'm fond of: Bondage.  But isn't that exactly what Mars in Cancer is....restraint?  That's exactly what I'm trying to get away from.  How is it the same, yet so different?  Why is it I loathe the sexual part of Mars in Cancer, yet I like to be restrained another way?  Perhaps because the latter is under my control??  I've never thought of this before..hmm)

Dear Venus-Uranus,

Wanna stay or wanna go? Because let me tell you, you can't have it all.

Love & craziness. Conny 

Shell, I've always been into bondage, too.  Mostly as a top, but very occasionally as a bottom when there's someone who A) actually has the balls for it and B) I trust im- and ex-plicitly.  I've always assumed it has to do with my Mars-Venus-Pluto conjunction, rather than with it being in a cardinal sign.  Any Pluto contacts to your Mars?

SaDiablo...

Do I ever....Mars square Pluto

Dear Uranus and Saturn, 

You both seriously suck! Bastards!

Dear Jupiter,

I love you.  You know I do.  But I am still not quite over the time when you made a conjuction to Pluto as it was opposing my natal moon.  Because, you know, you're supposed to bring support to ME, not the horrible influences that are ruining my life.  So the way that you explanded Pluto's influence to the point that I was really not sure that I was going to make it?  Kind of a dick move.

I can forgive you for that.  It's in the past, and we like to look to the future.  But, according to my ephemeris, in the future, you will be making a conjunction to Neptune as it opposes my 4 planet stellium in Leo.  I have to admit I am wary, as our history in this area is certainly not what I'd like it to be.  So, uh, how about this time you bring all of that Jupiter-y goodness and make your expansion a little more, well, discriminating, k?   Like, hey, you'll be in my 10th house as I job search!  Doesn't that sound like much more fun?  Yes, let's go with that. 

Optimistically,

Midara

Dear Neptune,

What did you say? I don't understand a word. Everything is under water here, hey, where are my shoes? No, he's not here, he was in that dream, do you remember? I don't know... 

Yours, Conny 

Midara, you had me cracking up!

I feel very Neptuney today. 

Dear Neptune, Jupiter, and Chiron,

 I don't know which one of you had the bright idea for a triple conjunction, (don't hide behind Jupiter, Neptune, we all know you had something to do with it) but I'm ready for an explanation. I'm an Aries and I can't wait until next February for everything to slowly be revealed and healed.

Until we meet again, 

HRae 

oh geez...I was having a serious case of TMI that day...

dear saturn in virgo,

 let me eat something! a can of green beans, a plate of fruit, and a bowl of bran cereal does not a healthy body make. i should not feel guilty about eating! i'm not going to gain 5 pounds and go into cardiac arrest if i have some meatballs and mashed potatoes. oh well.

until next time,

thanks for nothing!

--tasha

shell-

I hope for the best of life for you and your friend.

Dear Shell,

You're awesome.

xo, Jessica

((donederin))

Pluto - don't underestimate my staying power.

Neptune - the fog isn't as effective as you think, I can still see fairy dust if I look hard enough.

Saturn - I'm waiting for you, with arms wide open.

Hrae, RE: Neptune, Jupiter, Chiron,

FUCK YEAH.  You stole the words from my head, srsly.  *nodnod*

Dear Saturn,

I would be a good Capricorn even if you weren't punishing me all the time.

While I appreciated that you overcame Uranus during the opposition last November, it was truly overkill in the way it affected my life.  I would greatly appreciate it if you (and Uranus for the purposes of these oppositions) would recognize the hardship and growth I have been put through previously.

Please lay off.

Dear Cancer Stellium in my 3rd house, I think you should write a letter to Pluto because he's in Capricorn now, and going to be hanging around for a while.  Get acquainted.  Oh wait, he squares you natally!  You already are.  Ok, I'll do it.

Dear Pluto, Please be nice to my Cancer stellium.  We're headed into the long haul with you but you're always hanging around anyway.  Don't you have anything better to do??  

xoxo
