Huge life changes

[Guest guest]

Esteemed Gurus,

 

I find myself in a turbulent time in my life - many, many changes for the

better - and I would like some guidance from you all.

I have been in the same job for 23 years, and am looking for a change. I

started the job in Sept 1979. While the position I hold is highly sought

after (only 42 positions like it in the whole US), it has not been as

financially lucrative as I would like. I am auditioning (I am a symphony

orchestra musician) for 2 positions at the end of this month. The first (on

9/28) is in Chicago and is a HUGE position - one of a handful in the world.

The other (on 10/1) is on par financially with the position I currently

hold, but is within an easy 70 mile drive of my significant other. Right

now we are 2 2-hour plane trips apart.

 

At the same time there is part of me which wants to make a career change...

I'm wondering if my chart shows any hope for Jyotish... and I have been

involved in a major spiritual shift, since reading Paramahansa Yogananda's

_Autobiography of a Yogi_. (Blessings on Paramahansaji!) However, I find

that my ability to concentrate (whether on audition preparation, beginning

to study Jyotish, or studying the Self-Realization Fellowship lessons) is

almost nil.

 

On my chart, I have a Cancer lagna, Moon in 7 in Cap, Leo sun with Mars and

Merc combust. Add to that a lovely Jupiter and Venus in Virgo (yikes!)

(Venus in Vir in navamsa, too) and you can see that my inner life has not

been easy.

 

I was married on July1, 1989, divorced Sept 21, 1992, no children. Not a

problem for me (though this may be culture shock for the Indians on this

list), as I've never wanted children.

 

Right at the beginning of my Jupiter dasa (right word?) I had a wonderful

little dog - a poodle - come into my life. He just left, after 16 years, as

I started my Saturn dasa. He was a grand little soul.

 

So, here is my data, and I'm going to attempt to attach a jhl file...

Julie and Geno, sweethearts forever!
