The Buffy Diaries 6-7-2018

8:49 PM 6/7/2018  Jesus Christ, this is the worst break I’ve ever had in my blog, and after I thought I’d gotten it back.  Well, there have been some important changes.  For one, I’ve gone back to working out, even though I still have a strained tendon in my heel.  I’ve been doing muscle workouts and riding bikes.  My weight is under control again, after I gained so much when I quit a few months ago.

Furthermore, I’ve stopped working with the “I AM” Activity so much, and in general I’m putting Saint Germain on the back burner.  

9:51 PM 6/7/2018  I was sitting there wanting to catch up with my blog and then I went and wandered around the block in the dark for an hour, listening to my iPod.  

I had a very enjoyable day at work, and I’m looking forward to a very big weekend, with John’s intensive on Sunday.  The Moon entered Aries at 4:26, about the time I was getting out to Wilmette to pick up the IANDS books, and I feel the transit was validated as it was the beginning of a new cycle of productivity, although a familiar one.  I felt good starting out again on familiar ground.  

The Moon conjuncted Chiron at 8:24 tonight, and I was feeling healed after a very stressful week.  Last night and the night before I had to make the arduous trek down to the Music Box to watch two brilliant but exhausting films by Stanley Kubrick, “Eyes Wide Shut” and “Barry Lyndon”.  They used up all my free time and so tonight has been my first night to unwind with my 3D and pick up the pieces of my life.  So the Chiron transit was fully validated, even down to suddenly and unexpectedly immersing myself in old music – something Chiron always influences me to do.

Yesterday Gemini Mercury squared Pisces Neptune in the morning at 9:07.  I was feeling pretty good, caught up with work, but also feeling like I didn’t belong in the world, like it was all slipping past me.  

I’m working now on a new technique of recapitulation, trying to relive the transits with more depth.  

Buffynicity #1:  During the day Trump was in the news for bringing up the War of 1812 on a test phone call with Trudeau from Canada.  That night I went to see Barry Lyndon which was written in 1844, and set in the same general time period as the war of 1812, a couple of decades later I think.

One thing that happened with the square was that I had less money in the bank than I thought I had, but later that morning, as Pisces Moon trined Scorpio Jupiter at 11:38, I realized that the car rental place had taken a to-be-refunded deposit from my account, even though the employee I got my car from had said they wouldn’t, so I wasn’t really out any money.  Furthermore, I got a call from the car repair place and they told me that they’d discovered a major new repair that was necessary, but it would be fully covered by my service contract so I was taking care of a major issue that might have come up later without having any added inconvenience.  It was a nice surprise that validated the transit.

Pisces Moon squared Gemini Sun at 1:32 and I was feeling very spaced out, not sure whether I wanted to go to the effort to see Barry Lyndon that night.  I was feeling very intutitive but not very focused so the transit was validated.  Pisces Moon conjuncted Pisces Neptune at 2:25 and the clarity I felt with my angels was certainly validating.  I also feel the transit influenced my profound experience that night at the theater.  

Pisces Moon squared Gemini Mercury at 3:34 and went VOC.  I was definitely feeling rushed and out of sorts, daunted by the evenings journey, pressed for time and uncomfortable.  This was further validated as I was ultimately late for the film, since there was absolutely no parking anywhere and I ultimately had to settle for a space 15 minutes away – a difficult walk with my sore heel.

But the movie was brilliant.  I got a lot of psychic information, and I got home around the time Pisces Moon sextiled Capricorn Pluto, validated for me in the feelings of relatedness to society I drew from the depth of the film and my own memories of having seen it back in the 80s when I still believed in civilization.  I’m still assimilating the changes that took place as I watched.

On Tuesday the 5th the Moon entered Pisces at 5:53 AM.  Once again the Pisces transit has been lackadaisical for me.  I got nothing done but instead watched two twisted Piscean movies.  And here I am taking up my blog again only after the Moon is in Aries.  

Pisces Moon sextiled Taurus Uranus at 7:58 AM.  I had forgotten my breakfast, for one thing, and had to go get some at the Thornton’s across the street. I also felt compelled to buy a bunch of totally unhealthy candy, so the transit was validated in a minor way.  I was feeling irrational and out of control, giving into wild desires.

Gemini Sun inconjuncted Scorpio Jupiter at 3:10 PM.  I was just getting back from lunch.  I was feeling excited about seeing “Eyes Wide Shut”, and remembering the creepy reincarnated Nazis I was hanging around with back in Grand Rapids when it came to the theater there.  I think those strange memories validated the transit.

Pisces Moon was sextiling Capricorn Saturn at 7:35, just as the movie started.  The transit was validated in the way I found the single available parking spot on Soutport just minutes before the movie started, and also in the “time slip” of the film itself, resolving a lot of psychic issues for me.

Gemini Sun conjuncted Gemini Mercury at 9:02 PM as I watched the movie.  The transit was deeply validated as I was totally in awe of Stanley Kubrick and reinspired to take art seriously again.  I feel I’m on the verge of integrating my spiritual and artistic activities.  I may achieve something in that area yet.

I feel I finally understand some things about the meaning of art in this spiritual environment.

Cancer Venus opposing Capricorn Pluto at 9:25 PM was certainly validated with the film’s journey to the sexual underworld.  In the same way I felt that my emotional center was being restored and I was fully capable of “taking on the world” artistically.

Monday June 4 there was only one transit while I was awake, and that was Aquarius Moon inconjuncting Cancer Venus at 7:43 AM.  I was at work, just getting ready to go drop off my car.  It was a bit of a null.  I only worked for an hour and then I was off to the garage, where I wound up sleeping in a chair in the waiting room while they diagnosed my car trouble, certainly a very inconjunct thing to do.  Transit validated.

Now I have to look back to the two weeks I missed.  Is it even worth it?  Can I remember all that stuff?  Should I bother?  There are a few things I remember and I can see the associated transits were validated, but it’s so much work to go back that far.  I’ll think about doing that tomorrow night.
