2-All re. Relationship between the Transits, Dasas and our Charts from Mark

[Guest guest]

Mark,

 

I can certainly speak to what you are saying this morning. I woke up

fresh and ready to go into meditation this morning, and as I was into my

program, I noticed a little tug at the level of my heart. I knew that

was the Moon pulling, at my Mars [i knew this cause I was watching how I

felt, angry, irritated somewhat]. But, I continued to not let it be a

serious as it felt, cause, this is an illusion, and drama. I knew what I

was doing. It was a time of focusing on the practice, and I'm not

concerned with it, although, it is still going on.

 

So, as I make inroads to my day, I am certain not to fall for it, that

is, Moon and Mars both in Gemini. But, one thing is interesting to me,

is that it, the cycle seems to pulsate, in and out, if you will,

emotionally between the two; three/in Gemini!

 

Now, it's time to take a walk, this will help too, to de-stress,

throwing off " stuff " , as you walk...

 

Ok, stay tuned, as I want to, too!

 

Ciao
