I just happened to see this post from a friend on Facebook (it’s a repost from somewhere else)

Mars in Taurus trine the North Node in Virgo. Mars is on the Sabian symbol ‘The Pot Of Gold At The End Of The Rainbow’ – Let go of thinking that your actions are meaningless and that nothing can be done to improve circumstances. Recover your fight, your motivation and your stamina through giving yourself incentives to keep going. Tiny steps forwards are all it takes to fling open the gates of opportunity. Be on the lookout for synchronistic signals giving you the green light …to go ahead. Let your enthusiasm, desire or excitement become your compass.

What is needed is real and tangible goals which can be carefully measured rather than vague wishes for something better. You have a wealth of inner resources to call upon, not least your creative imagination which can build a bridge between where you are and where you want to be. Aim high but stay grounded. Become a gardener of dreams, a champion of hope.

This bit about “recovering your fight” is exactly what I was just writing about.  Once again, the synchronicity I was writing about didn’t seem like such a big deal, but once I blogged it something else got added to it.

There was another Buffynicity about Spike which was that when he burned his hand he tried to pour alcohol on it.  I sympathized very much because with all this cold weather the skin between my fingers is drying out very painfully so I’m using hand lotion all the time.
