When I was young, without experience, and knew everything as I was highly educated, it was difficult to see clearly. I ran into some ideas that were not healthy for me, and that sort of shut me down. I will be working on this post for several days, and will expand it.
I am learning the game of Golf - why? Because with my astro configuration pattern, it is important to use skillful means.
Whenever I get swamped by my sea of tears, I remember what my friend who is a commercial pilot would tell me - "did you help a kid learn how to tie his shoes? did you take out the garbage? Did you clean the house? Do those things then report back to me"
I have north node in Virgo in the second house conjunct Pluto. Saturn in the 6th house. Sun in Taurus. This south node in pisces conjunct chiron in the eighth house which trips me up. I cannot understand if this is collective, ancestral, or personal, that said like I said there are more posts to come, in addition to evolving this post a bit. At times it is a sea of tears. Doesn't help me one bit either.
The Mantra - "Skillful means"
When I get trapped over there in that eighth house - it does not help me, and it does not help the collective. This is how I got into astrology in the first place. It was a tool to help me get over onto that north node.
That said - after being swamped in a sea of tears for months I am going to start developing skillful means again. I think women should have their own power - the men are a bit nutty - and the women need to know how to take care of themselves.
This post will evolve - but for now it is a start. I will let you know how golf lessons go.
Thank god for Virgo men, engineers, pilots, athletes and all those healers and servers and strong men - by their virtue and ability and taking what they have to do seriously. Thank you.

Vegetarian
I was a Vegetarian for 10 years, then I moved to Massachusetts and started eating meat again. I think if you live in a climate of brutal weather, people should not be judged for eating meat. Winter is simply insane Massachusetts north.
That said, I am experimenting with being a vegetarian again now that I live in DC. I have met so many people from Massachusetts that live here, so many. The area has many of the same markers as Massachusetts, but better weather.
I have been a vegetarian again for two days, and already I feel better. I already know I am a pisces fish south node, and I pick up on things whether I want to or not, and the vegetarian thing is just working for me at the moment. I feel better. I think I will eat fish occasionally as I need the b-vitamins, but I am going to experiment with this for a while and see how I do. I will keep posting for you.
For those of you interested in Astrology - Tennessee where my parents are and where I went to High School and College - that is Neptune. Massachusetts is Sun and Pluto. DC is Uranian and a midpoint between Venus and my Mercury/Moon. There is also this thing going on with Ceres and Vesta that is pretty important.
I am a work in progress and learning, and I promise to share accumulated knowledge. Both from a worldly concern and business perspective, and from everything else.
All I can say is - if it works - keep it. If it does not work - let it go. North node in Virgo speaking here.
till next time, all the best.

Even Neptune eventually needs to Incarnate in order to Evolve
I have stated frequent disclaimers, yet here again, I state a disclaimer. I am not a therapist, but a layman on an earthly journey. I offer what I know, in hopes of making my life better, and pointing those who might need the help, into a better direction.
On the way to the beach a few weeks ago, I heard an excellent segment by someone named Robert Masters, on a book he had written called "Spiritual Bypassing". This was on an NPR program - and I have forgotten the name. In a nutshell, I agreed with much of what the man said, as I in the past have been very guilty, and still to some extent I am. Except, I keep having these Scorpio experiences which force me to confront my emotion.
"What", you say, "How could a good Taurus girl like yourself be having Scorpio Experiences?". Well, this is where it gets interesting, and this is where I have used astrology as a helper and pointer to growth, and where my soul is keeping me on track. Dark Star Astrology - http://darkstarastrology.com/ - is an excellent website. I am still trying to understand what all this means, but from the help I have gotten from the following - seems to me to be....
Sun pretty near Algol - the Medusa's head
Lilith pretty near my ascendent
Pluto Conjunct my North Node in Virgo in the Second House
Mars in Leo on the ascendent
I am still a good Taurus Girl - but i think much of this is designed to get me out of Neptunes Lair - where I can spend a lot of time. Pisces South node in the 8th house.
I have cried an ocean of tears - and then the teeth explode. This morning in the dentist chair - again.
And - what is the degree my Neptune is on Sabian Symbols? 9 degrees Scorpio "A Dentist at Work: Overcoming the Negative Results of Social Practices and Ego Cravings". Buried right there in the 4th house - and conjuncth my mother's South Node.
I have spent my whole life in the Dentist Chair. I was sitting there this morning thinking about what good Virgos that group was being, and how it was time to get real with my life lesson, again, and be grateful for it.
North Node -3 degrees Virgo "Two Guardian Angels" "Invisible help and protection in times of crises"
Pluto -5 Degrees Virgo "A man becoming aware of Nature Spirits, and normally unseen Spiritual Agencies"
Path of Fortune -1 Degree Virgo "A large white Cross dominates the landscape"
I like the book "An Astrological Mandala" by Dane Rudhyar for the sabian symbols meanings, but there are several very good books out there worth the investment and tending to the symbol.
Check out a website called "The Pluto Club" It is worth your time.

Now it gets more interesting and complicated, in that Astrologer Janet Kane, has told me that I am a Uranian, and I need to get with the program. Janet works with the Jungian therapists in the area, in order to help individuals study and understand their own life myths. I think it is time I finally go get a full reading from Janet.
I have always known that I am a Uranian, (more about that signature later) - but it is all this electrical energy, that seems to help with the Neptunian Swamp I can sometimes get stuck in, and with some of these difficult Pluto lessons. I have nothing against Neptune or Pluto - I just think a better way for me to Honor Neptune is to go visit the Ocean - where I do have a sense of Clarity.
I will probably be editing this post over the next few days, but I send it out there for now, for what it is worth. I find that it is helpful to me to study astrology, as at least it points me in a positive direction where I can start to get a clue and get out of my swamp.
