if anyone knows what was going on astrologically starting 2 days ago, could they let me know?
honestly, i’ve never had a day like that before. i started feeling like i was living in a truman show-esque slapstick episode of my life - one where i was constantly on the verge of hysterical tears.
i was making dinner for myself before i hit the gym. my kitchen was a disaster and i didn’t know where the scissors were so i grabbed a knife to slit open a package, and cut my ring finger to the bone. i immediately felt like i was going to be sick/crying like a baby/calling field for help (i didn’t heal properly from a minor surgery i had 9 years ago and lack some kind of clotting agent now, because i bleed like a stuck pig from minor cuts) but gritted my teeth, found a bandaid, and went to the gym, where i promptly
hit my eye on the steel bar of a piece of the equipment i was trying for the first time - did it hard enough to want to (yes, again) cry; three seconds later i already had a goose egg, which was violet.
on my way home, i ran into a fellow dogwalker who was on his way to the gym and he invited me to walk dogs with him after his workout - i said sure. he and his wife also shop where i work, and she owns a yoga studio i’ve practiced in - so i was interested to talk with him.
i ended up having a minor “wobbly leg” spasm as we were standing in the football field, talking. this is fine, totally, except at 11 at night, when i was already tired, i didn’t want to get into the “i have a minor form of c.p. and sometimes this happens when i get tired” conversation. i just told him the second part, but it was still awkward (it can sometimes be, for other people), and since i can feel shy in front of new people….it wasn’t the first impression i wanted to leave, let’s say.
then daisy, who had been playing in the field with jamal’s dog, raven, found a skunk. and got sprayed by said skunk. hard. bad. so bad my eyes watered. i found out because she came running to me for comfort and threw herself in my arms.
and then the next morning she threw up on my pillow.
then i called this woman for a writing job i never completed and she said how happy she was to hear from me, and i agreed to help her with something….and couldn’t do it. i was a zombie until i went to work.
sheesh…..i want my mommy.

it’s good to catch up with you dear bee. cuts like that make my feet sweat. i often have days like that - cutting myself, bonking myself, etc. are you close to your period? hormones dropping right before you bleed, make a girl incredibly accident prone. you should see how the walls jump out at me!
i’m excited for your new digs - glad that the absence here, means that life is full.
it’s remarkable how taking care of yourself is almost a full-time job isn’t it? i never knew i was so high maintenance! (=

Oy! hope your finger is better. I know that feeling. I cut mine on a broken glass in the sink and immediately hit the floor because I could feel the faint coming on. Squirting water on my face and grabbing my cordless and calling a friend for a ride to the emergency room for stitches. What a panic.
Cosmic shift or something going on…who knows? Hang in there and keep writing through it all. Can’t wait to see pics of your new place. Have you started packing?

My best advice? Go back to bed - even for five minutes - feel safe and secure and cozy and warm again and then start again. I think of it as a reset button!!
Hang in there - soon you’ll have a day that is as wonderful as that one was wrong!!! I PROMISE!

Hold on. The sun is now in Gemini, and that is a good thing for positive changes. And Jupiter sextile Uranus, which is a very optimistic aspect! AND Venus is coming into Gemini as well, which means you should be getting out and meeting people, because love could get a nice push.
As for the other day, a full moon was due on the 19th, i think. Sometimes the energy leading up can be loaded and odd… Like right before you start your period. lol
