I realized my last post may have inaccruately indicated that I wasn't doing well. Actually, I'm having a great Monday morning. And my overall state of being is not so bad either. I mean, sure I've been better, but I've also been worse and I don't like to say things like that anyway because it's just asking the universe to make things worse anyway. And for some reason I'm thinking of this story about a store clerk who when someone responded to the "how-are-you?" banter with a comment about this is the only life they had, the clerks said, yeah, but isn't one enough?
Yes, yes it is.
This intro isn't making much sense though I swear it does in my head. I'm really posting to just document some recent astrological updates that are frighteningly accurate. As usual. One would think at some point they'd stop being so scary to me, but frankly I enjoy the shock, so no. No, they won't.
YESTERDAY:
Dear RAYMOND,
Today is a good day to take care of all the little problems in your love life, RAYMOND. If you have none, you can just relax! But if you do, try and think about being a little less absorbed by your career, and a lot more absorbed by your partner or your family, or anyone you love. Do not neglect any part of your life; it could throw you off balance.
[Of course, what did my punk ass do yesterday? Try to do work. I was unsuccessful in getting work things done and felt frustrated with myself for being lazy and uninspired. Though at least I was sensible enough to take up
vfc's offer to play in the afternoon rather than force myself to stay at home.]

The Moon is in Capricorn today, helping us bring our bring integrity to our emotions. The Moon has work to do now, as Capricorn wants to know which feelings are real and tries to stabilize them. Of course, all feelings are real, yet none of them last. Feelings change, like the Moon. If we try to hold them in one place, we can feel them dry up. The gift of the Capricorn Moon is to trust the process. When emotions are given permission to flow, they remain alive and vital. Changing feelings need not threaten our security.

CANCER (Jun 21–Jul 22): There’s a lot going on within your own subconscious mind now, and it’s not all making its way up to the surface. The practical relationship issues that you may be dealing with are distracting you from your own fantasies, but sooner or later you’ll have to choose. Will you be content with fantasies that don’t match up to your outer reality?
TODAY:
{This applies to everyone:)
The Moon is in energetically conservative Capricorn until 8:42 pm EDT, when it enters intellectual Aquarius. We become less concerned with what we should be feeling and more aware of what makes us each different. There is a paradox in the Aquarian Moon, for it may feel its unique individuality, yet it is very aware of the group process. It longs to be a part of the community. Also, Mars enters Pisces, where his prolonged stay throughout the summer will energize our imaginations, fuel our fantasies and activate our compassion.
CANCER (Jun 21–Jul 22): The tides are changing once more and this time you may just be ready to float along with the currents as they take you where they will. You have a deepening sense of your own feelings and even if you are afraid of them, you now realize that you must trust them. Energetically, you might be feeling like you are holding back, but the water will find a way around the artificial dam on its way to the sea.
Dear RAYMOND,
RAYMOND, you may have been feeling lately as if your emotions need a long vacation. Today, don't you just feel like doing one thing... being silly? You may even feel like kidding around with everyone around you, unless it's someone else who wants to kid around with you! It's just a wonderful day to seek out all the joy that life has to offer. Forget about the rest!
Yes, yes it is.
