the signs said so

emchyok - freewillastrology is often right on the money for me - and cut me some slack - i like to take vaguely philosophical musings that can be somehow applied to daily life as little bits of wisdom.
this is me this week:
VIRGO
In the coming week, people may have a lot to tell you about what you shouldn't think, how you shouldn't act, and whom you shouldn't hang out with. Their counsel will be useful mostly in its revelations about them. If I were you, I wouldn't actually heed much of what they say. What you should trust, though, is your calm, lucid inner voice, especially when it gives you intuitions about what you shouldn't think, how you shouldn't act, and whom you shouldn't hang out with. This is an ideal time to get clearer about the life you don't want to live.
now what i find fascinating about this, and why i bother to post it, even when some of you have vented to me specifically about your distaste for astrology is well #0. that it's my LJ and so I will own my self indulgence and #1. that it actually does put words to some of what has been swirling around my head lately.
I am well aware of my severe dislike for advice and the word 'should' often makes me want to turn on my heel and rudely walk away from people whom i otherwise love madly. this usually applies when the advice is not solicited. and the idea to look at this unsolicited advice as a reflection on the giver is surprisingly new to me. to see the how and why of their reasons for telling me, and how that may reflect their own issues and not a derogatory opinion about my failiings as a person. To compound things and just get a nice tie in with mr. breszny up there, is that i have been thinking a lot about the state of my life lately - good and bad - and what things i don't want in it anymore. what sort of patterns and communications and dynamics i am ready to let go of. i need to take it one step at a time so that i am not throwing the baby out with the bath water - but i know that things are not going to continue as they are for much longer.
I got a new job, with a huge amount of responsibility. so soon will be the juggling of two very busy part time jobs and the open mic, performing and curating for the queer arts fest in june. so the boredom / spinning factor is going to be cut down. I must and will make more social time for lover, friends and pets ie all of my important relationships. i am sick with the fact that i haven't found a way to give a travelling friend more of a personal goodbye, and it flags me that i need to make better priorities. i finally talked to sean in florida last night - after he has left me many messages- and talked him through his grandmothers passing earlier that night. it should not have been so much work for him to reach me. that is not the kind of friend i want to be. (SF friends, sean is visiting at the end of march, get excited, you will love him)
so all this to say - i have a lot on my mind. much of it is not verbalized or realized in concrete thoughts yet - but this weeks virgo hit it more on the head than anticipated. in the end - it may just be about deciding what i really want. and i am not exactly sure. yet.
