Blimey - only a few hours of this left to see if I can manage something constructive after the past couple of days of pure idleness. It's all Michael Connelly's fault for writing such beautifully constructed and totally absorbing *crime novels* so I am absolved of all sin.
On the other hand it would be pleasant to see the top of the dining room table again as it's been covered with bits of paper for a week now, all part of the less-than-half-hearted attempt to deal with and organize and file the dreaded hard copy mail, sitting there untouched while I run around with the point-and-shoot and document the amazing results of a little bit of rain before diving back into bed again with The Scarecrow.
It's a hard life if you don't weaken.

Possible Manifestation of Neptune Conjuncting Mars
Walmart unable to fill a prescription as they don't have enough of the medication.
Venus trine the Midheaven and Ascendant
Well I don't really know what it has to do with anything but there were two turkeys in the driveway when I left this morning. Neither of them offered me a job or seemed particularly thrilled to see me.
Been home now for a couple of hours and am back in bed with the cats playing Lexulous (they're not very good), doing the crossword in the Guardian, eating jerky and watching the rain (yeah! yet another day NOT to paint the wellhouse) and the birds at the feeder.
Works for me.

Neptune Conjunct Mars
Well the old point-and-shoot's been used more in the past week than it has in the previous two years, and if I could figure out how to get photos on here without using Picasa I'd do it.
I also seem to be surviving the potential turning into an alcoholic or drug addict aspect, which is a good thing - a shandy in the garden at four every afternoon doesn't seem to me to be taking me too far down the Primrose Path.
We'll see.

Mars Opposed to Uranus
I'm not really in the market for lashing out in anger, what with natal Mars in Pisces and all, more the weird and out of the ordinary as it squares Uranus in Gemini, so beginning yesterday with a hike in the forest and ending it with a community viewing of Bernie Sander's Our Revolution live stream was about as perfect a manifestation of the subject aspect as you could get for me.
The change is afoot, Watson, at least as long as this Neptune conjunct Mars thingie lasts.

Neptune Conjunct Mars
Well, I don't know about spirituality but I've been taking a lot more photos than usual, buying plants like a madwoman and hitting the shandy and the shady spot in the garden at around four o'clock in the afternoon for the past week or so.
On the day this was exact (yesterday) I went hiking - an event in my life comparable to someone else going to the moon - and once again contemplated painting the well-house without actually doing so, my supposedly clever attempt at making it look so bad I wouldn't be able to stand looking at it any longer by scraping off most of the already peeling paint failing miserably.
In my defense, it did look as though it was going to rain (Neptune, haha), otherwise I just might have been able to gird my loins and do it. And it did indeed just rain, so there's always tomorrow.

Jupiter Trine the Midheaven - Found the Draft
See last post about losing a draft: found it and it has nothing to do with what I thought it did. Oh well - for my many followers, here it is, abrupt ending and all:
I was wondering why I was feeling so good, went to Astrodienst that I'm sick of making links to and lo and behold, there's Jupiter making a trine to the MC.
I'm slipping, but I knew that. In the olden days I used to sit with a day planner, go to Astrodienst and write down all the daily and longer-term transits, along with the time of exactitude, for the couple of weeks or month ahead, and be aware of where the Progressed Moon was and all that stuff. I don't think I've done that at all this year, although I must have as I've managed a couple of posts on here and would still desperately like to keep this blog up to date. Not desperately enough to do it, but still.
It was worse when I first *discovered* astrology - the real thing, I mean, not Patric Walker in Town and Country, though he was pretty good, but actually studying with a real astrologer and learning techniques and things. Back then, twenty years ago, I had a three-ring binder and would print out every full and new moon chart with my chart on the outside and have those pages face a two-week calendar and scribble -
