Just Over the Ridge

[Ridge view; 1/6/07]

Things could get a bit weird around here. I have a couple of Uranean transits on their way, and I can feel it already. Uranus, the off-kilter planet, the lord of tumultuous upheavals (this was in the google blurb, missing from the site itself), the planet of rebellion, the ruler of electricity and excitement. I was born with Uranus conjunct my Ascendant and Moon, so my nervous system fires up whenever it's around or activated. Curl that skeptical eyebrow up if you will, but I know this, because it zaps me awake in the night, and during the day I get wired up sans potable stimulants. Sounds fun, and it is, but it's also exhausting. On the other hand, I've had a fair share of downtime and I'm settling in more comfortably in the new job and all. Maybe it's getting time to shake things up a little.

I hope that it will be a good kind of excitement, Leslee - you deserve it! Glad the job has been working out. Say, are you an Aquarius? I really need to learn more about this astrology house, ascendants etc.!

[leslee]

Thanks, Marja-Leena. No, not Aquarius. A Virgo. Leo Moon/Ascendant. The Virgo part of me is not so thrilled by all that unpredictable stuff. :-)

[Lorianne]

Hmmm, sounds like you're in for a wild ride. Martinis, anyone? :-)

[leslee]

Martinis - exactly.

The transit will last all year, so presumably I'll have plenty of time to adjust to the new frequency!

Wow. The things I might understand about myself if I knew the time of my birth! I wish you well with the extra energies!

[susurradeluz]

Does this mean we all have Uranus affecting us or is it specific to each sign?

If the former, maybe I should lay off the caffeine. :-)

[leslee]

Susan: It's specific to my birth chart.

MB: You can find out a lot from just knowing the day. Or see if you can find the time - some hospitals keep records, if it's not on your birth certificate. It can be interesting!

Buckle up! Still...as a fellow Virgo, I can see how you might feel leery.

Well, I have to say I am the ultimate sceptic about such things. I have absolutely no beliefs. I am an existentialist through and through. BUT, I have to admit that I am an existentialist Gemini through and through so...

[leslee]

Thanks, Kurt. We do like to keep things neatly in their place, don't we? (Although this doesn't explain the catastrophe of my office, nor of my garage.)

Charlie: Well, nobody ever accused a Gemini of being of two minds at once. Ha! ;-)

I once met a guy who seemed very knowledgeable about the significance of birth dates and times. When I told him my birthdate, he then proceeded to tell me a couple of things that seemed quite true, even though I'd just met him. I couldn't tell him my birth time then, but I've dug it up just now. I'm curious to know what you'd be able to tell me, should you be so inclined. :-) And we can take this off-blog if you like.
