Feeling the Effects

We discussed earlier the effects that the planetary aligment of November 15th would have on our lives in the weeks before and after that particular date. It has certainly not left my life unchanged. As I mentioned last week, our next door neighbor of 25 years passed away last Tuesday. We attended the wake Friday night and funeral on Saturday. The family has informed us his house will go up for sale in the spring, brining a major change to the way we have lived for the past 25 years. Sunday I received a call from my sister to come to the house as my 93 year old dad was not doing well. We were there for four hours to be with him. Today I got a call at 9:00 a.m. to meet her at the Emergency Room where my dad was headed, having taken a turn for the worse. I spent six hours in the ER today with him and my family. He was finally brought up to a room and was resting when I left. My 98 year old mother-in-law, having undergone emergency abdominal surgery several weeks ago, is also in a nursing home. They are both failing rapidly and there is a distinct possibility neither one of them will be coming home. This is how the Saturn/Pluto square has affected me personally. Irrevocable changes on many different levels. I think it's fair to say that life "as I know it" will never be the same again.

I understand. Went thru some ups and downs myself during that period of uncertainty.
Question, what lies ahead? Is there any more periods as that on the horizon?

Yes, Nuggie. Here are some dates we need to look at November 24 - December 1, 2009; and in 2010: January 20 - February 9th; April 23 - May 1; July 18 - August 2nd; September 17 - 23.

Sorry these things are happening in your life Goddess. I know what you are going through with you father's health failing. I went thru it with my mom who was in a nursing home for three years until she passed. Now my dear uncle, whose 90, seems to be failing fast. He's also in a nursing home and I think what a difference a year makes. He had to have part of his leg amputated a few months ago. Just pray for them and take good care of yourself too.

Thank you so much, Diva. I believe in the power of prayer and positive thinking and I thank you for that reminder. It's been one of "THOSE" weeks, you know? Sometimes we become so absorbed in the problems, we tend to forget that not everything is in within our mortal control. That's a lesson I still struggle with after all these years. I'm a "fixer" - have always been able to "fix" things; now I can't. Thank you again for your good wishes, and I will keep your uncle in my prayers too.

Blessings to you, Goddess! I know we've discussed these days...they've been very difficult for me too but certainly not the the extent as yours. I read a quote on Facebook where someone said, "It's not the storms in life that bother me, but I could sure do without the strikes of lightning!" I think we can all identify with that. Sending you lots of loving thoughts.....
