Taking a few moments to let everyone know I’m alive and well if somewhat overwhelmed at the moment. We have started into serious harvest time and from now until mid-September [yes, when Saturn and Uranus make their next exact opposition] I will be one busy lady. We are enjoying all the fresh vegetables and berries immensely but getting the produce from the garden to the freezer or shelf is time consuming. There is a very good reason most people prefer to go to the local grocers or farmer’s market . . .One thing I did get done was my post over on Real Astrologers on the July 7 lunar eclipse. That eclipse and the solar eclipse on July 21 are going to break some of us out of our “stuck” places, especially cardinal sign types. It will also help to have Jupiter pulling away from Neptune after July 10. Don’t know about anyone else but Neptune & Co have thrown up such an effective fog bank, it just dawned on me I have been marching in place for months! Duh!
I was reading through the latest ebook I got from Donna Cunningham, "Astrological Analysis," and came to the chapter on the hazards of predicting for yourself. All those incredible insights we as astrologers have on the behalf of others just does not happen for ourselves. By the way, this also applies to doing chart comparisons for ourselves . . . it is NOT possible to be objective, period! End of story. And even if our friendly astrologer tells us that relationship is going to suck, there is a far greater likelihood we will completely ignore them if we are “in Love”. However, I am also a firm believer in my own inability to make judgment calls for someone else because that experience may just what the individual needs for an important breakthrough in awareness.
One of the joys of blogging is meeting new people out here in cyberspace. Deb Steinberg, another Libra with Mercury in Scorpio, has a great blog. She is funny with a decided edge, hiding a kind heart. A definite plus is her husband’s contribution – the Financial Loft. Check them out!
One of my favorite fellow astrologers, Lynn Hayes, is doing her usual excellent job of providing great stuff for all of us who visit her blog, Astrodynamics. She is now doing a radio broadcast on astrological subjects. I’m impressed, as always, with Lynn’s energy and enthusiasm.
Finally found the best description of the Jupiter, Neptune & Chiron in Aquarius again! It was on Lucy Looking Upward blog. She has a biting sense of humor and makes me laugh . . . a gift for sure!
And don’t forget to stop by and see what Elsa P is up to on ElsaElsa. Her dedication to helping all of us astro-bloggers to keep our boats afloat with AstroDispatch is much appreciated.
Now I need to get back to whittling down my to do list!
Image: This photo of the half moon is slightly out of focus . . . just like me these days. But I like the affect anyway.

I love your photos!
Great roundup! Found you at Elsa's.
I love your photos!
Thanks, Deb!! Means a lot coming from another Libra . . . we need our daily fix of beauty like plants need sun. :-)
Welcome Shannon! Always love having more feedback from another astrologer. :-)
Elsa is about the most amazing person around the astro-blogosphere. She has done one hell of a job helping the rest of us expand our readership - for the most part single handedly.
Agreed. Among my favorite forms of beauty is the sight of the sparrows outside. Something about their chirping and bouncing about makes my heart flutter-- too cute. I feed them with sprinkles of seeds just to watch them play out back :).
God, I'm such a sucker.
Oh there's a lunar eclipse too? I only realised it was a full moon.
I had a really sad day today and for once it wasn't about my moodiness, it was simply sad because of things that happened. It was nothing too bad but we simply have very little control over the things that affect us.
Ah, you and your fresh vegetables. :) I yearn for that pleasure (and work, I realise!) more and more.
((neith)) thank you for being a friend of the earth and telling this Taurus about the fruits of your labour.
BTW I love your use of the word "duh"~ it gives me a huge laugh every time!
Today was insane. I'm riding the storm, with help from my friends I get to see every day, and friends like you in astro-land.
Hi DM!

LOL - there are many times when I wish I didn't know, to tell you the truth.
With nothing except the occasional Moon in fire signs, the atmosphere seems flat to me - no verve or zip. Makes it harder for those with lots of fire like yourself to stay upbeat when sad things happen.
You're welcome, Chrispito! Taurus seems to draw a sense of perspective from even just thinking about the stately progression of the seasons.
The first garlic of the season is incredibly good too. :-)

Yeah, you probably feel like a scab is beginning to form, then something happens to yank it off and you start bleeding all over again. But eventually your life will find a new rhythm. Hang in there!
