This thread is a spin-off from Becca's
"Astrology Stories!" post.
I liked where Becca's thread was going, but I also wanted to know how people related to the movement of the planets. How does Mercury's frequent retrograde trips effect you? Has there ever been a report that actually did what it said it would do? Or just the opposite?
I'll give my story, since it's oh so very recent, and kind of creepy (and maybe to clarify what I'm babbling about.)
In the early months of this year, I had been invited by a couple of friends to help with some filming projects they had to do for their college courses. There I met my future boyfriend (now ex, to be explained.) For months we worked together and got along well (He's a Libra, I never got his info to do research), and finally, around late July/early August, he asked me out.
Now, it had been nearly 4 years since I've "dated" and the prospect freaked me out a little. I asked him to give me time to think about it. As I thought, I read my usual astrology report by Baron Samadhi (You're living under a rock if you haven't heard me mention him. Or completely avoiding my posts) and in his new blog, he had been talking about Venus going into a funk and to wait on major decisions until September 7th.
I had given him that date, which he respected but also thought was odd. However, after much thinking, I decided to go against it. So I said yes. Around this time, my computer died and I had not been reading my reports. Time goes on and we're both happy. Until the end of the month. He starts acting weird and impatient and unenthusiastic around me. Come mid-September, he stops talking to me altogether. Then, in late September, all connections are severed when he moved away without a word.
I'm not here to whine about my boy problems: What happened actually went in accord to what the reports had warned.
Later August: Venus in retrograde, Saturn in Virgo - some iffiness. Spouts of Depression. This is when our relationship gets awkward.
Early September: Saturn moves in Libra: Mentions it's a good time to bring up issues in relationship. This week, my boyfriend just says he's been busy and we'd get together later.
A little later: Week of the eclipse: Mars in Gemini: Am told reality will set in and will change perspective views on people. That very week, I couldn't help but notice he wouldn't even look at me during our weekend together out of town with our friends. No communication between us happened whatsoever.
End of September: Mars in Cancer, the "Falling" or "Depression" point. After the last couple weeks of avoiding me, he finally ditches town, not telling me or our friends (the ones who introduced us.)
It's been a couple weeks, and everything is starting to become okay. I haven't spoken to him. I want to, in order to make amends and stay friends (I hate leaving off things on a bad note), I'm waiting until Mercury, Mars, and Venus leave their crappy positions, because I'm not risking it.
Call me silly, but I've never had a report that explained my situation so well (sorry for my bad descriptions. I was trying to get to the point.) I know it's not really meant to be predictive, and more on the emotions that will happen and how you can take control. But I didn't take control, and the planetary energies sucked me in.
Anyone ever have that? Share, share, share.
