Just Say No To Neurosis
Just nine more hours of this interminable Void Moon in Kataka/Cancer to go – Say NO to neurosis, toxic nostalgia and shopping for naff crap. Eat for nutrition, not some crazed version of therapy via carb-loading.
If you didn’t check your Daily Mystic email for Tues, see it for more deets & the times this thing ENDS etc.
Soon: the HOTNESS of a Moon in Leo trine Uranus & Mars – it’s called a Grand Fire Trine. Your personal fabulousness can and will fuel you out of any mediocrity.
Meanwhile speed-dial your shrink, stalk your cat or Share/Vent Here. All is well in your loving world.

Now that’s a bug I haven’t seen in a very long time.
Bright, I love your little profile photo x
I LOVE Leo moons, I’m excited! For some reason I’m always extra hot/carefree/not psycho during Leo and Gemini moons. Never look forward to the moon being in Cancer moons or worse yet…Capricorn. *shudder* I feel bad for my Virgo sister, she has it natally. And opposing her Cancer rising.
Just watching Parliment the politicians are nuts!!!
Just watching Parliment the politicians have all gone nuts lol.
too late – just ate some cream banana caramel pie. my sister is currently in hong kong (new territories) and has been telling me about the giant snails! can’t wait to visit her. she spends her days learning cantonese, reading poetry, walking, writing poetry. amaze.
i usually feel pretty crap during cancer moons but this time i’m not feeling so bad. the weekend was worse!
Looking forward to the leo moon, too. Always a good time for me, lots of fun. But mostly I’m feeling the crud of everything, occasionally immobilized, sleep-deprived, wanting to isolate and write and make art.
But I had a question about timing: I read the horoscopes but Tuesday’s seemed so accurate for me today, here in the States where it’s Monday. Monday’s was so off. I mean, my Leo scope was so right on – we had a funny family convo with my 10-and-under daughters re cod pieces, fairy poop, and glittery suppositories. I mean, really funny and crazy and open and the stuff you remember when you’re old. Just another day with my Cancer and Pisces sun kids…
My Husband reckons Mystic is always a day out
And we’re in Perth ! (the time difference isn’t *that* much) His horoscope is scarily accurate for the day after it appears.
I always read the Virgo, Scorpio and Saggitarius, due to my chart. I always have difficulty picking which one has the most influence. I suspect I could put together something complex involving biorhythms, where Sag would be physical, Scorpio emotional and Virgo intellectual… but that’s too bloody complex on the whole…, plus my physical and emotional biorhythms track very closely so it would be hard to differentiate…..
MUCH easier just to read all three and then go “ahhhh” afterwards
Yeah, I think the scopes are usually a day off for me as well. Tuesday’s for Monday, Wednesday’s for Tuesday, etc. I read my Leo sun/star sign as well as my Sagg rising, and those are usually quite on. I love the idea of a kind of general osmosis of scopic accuracy, reading a few and going “Ahhh”. Too funny.
where was this post yesterday? lol. too late. workout starts tomorrow! hee
hee.
I sent out the Daily Mystic last night just after it began x
Woke up this morning after dreaming that I had been to see my ex-fiance, we had eaten a meal together, had sex, and then I confessed I still loved him. At that point his current fiance came home, I told her we had had sex, to which she shrugged and said ‘we are not really together at the moment anyway’.
Is the neurosis allowed if it happened while you were sleeping?
Ok I’m going to eat up my vita-wheats with avocado and tomato. Health.
wow, I dreamt about an ex too scorpessence!
have been floating about completely useless today. haven’t managed to get started on anything on my to do list… staring into space and checking emails and FB… useless
I did do some healthy food and then followed it up with a third of a jar of raw, organic, choc gateaux …. sugar hit is making my brain do strange things
i’d like to get off this merry go round now thanks haha
I dreamt I had salt and pepper chest hair like a man, lol. i
was wearing a polo shit and it was popping out the top Steve Carrell style.
Too late for me… I have been home today trying to finish my end of year assignments, and I have been anxious and snacking like crazy. And just ordered a Crust pizza. Feel like I have put on a million pounds. Just need to make it to the end of this month…
hilarious
PS I meant the dream – not your assignments – hope they are going well
Had an ex dream too – a guy i haven’t seen in years. What’s all this ex energy about?
I said ‘no’ to neurosis, but ‘yes’ to potatoes today (more because I was too lazy to go buy protein and cook it, than because I was in the mood for an emo carb fest). Mmm potatoes…
I reckon that sounds like a good compromise hehehe
Potatoes & Steak !
ME Too… I said yes to a potato too! and it was floury and disgusting, I accidently poured too much sauce on it, and I must have a bout of neurosis, because i lost my appetite pretty quick…
bad neurosis…..
Oh super neurotic dream here too. Actually that pic reminds me of my last neurotic dreaming phase 20 years ago when I dreamt my legs were composed of dog food and were being slowly consumed by snails.
This morning’s doozy was one of those ultra humiliating scenarios — all of the people I studied with at Uni turned up at my house, but completely ignored me, while having a huge banquet and fiesta on my front lawn. It turned out to be some weird triumphalist ritual whereby super successful and wealthy people sought out the people from their peer group who didn’t quite make the grade and rubbed their noses in it. It was HORRIBLE.
I can’t imagine having natal crab moon… or being natal crab sun AND moon, during these crappy crab moon transits! omg. bring on the leo!
Yes but try having it square Aries saturn…Bit tougher than you might expect…with venus in capricorn…Cancer moon is in its dignity…OK there some sentiment, where there should be compassion there always is time to give, but adversaries know Aries saturn is resilient…Its the cancer moon that lends some expansive hope when the odds seem impossible.
add a ram mars to that and you have a mother and child all rolled into one. sounds like good tv, not necessarily a good life.
Thanks M – loved coming home to this post this arvo – am feeling very drained and weary after such as forceful entry of saturn into scorpio – weirdest, very full on friday/saturday and seems like I am still processing. Stood up for myself in 2 love/sex scenarios and finding it a little hard to get my head round it all – resulted in drippy emo this arvo but thankfully did not act out!
Here here on the neurotic dreams for me too! The last few nights of dreams have involved my recent ex-lover. That bastard! Anyway, two nights I’ve had sex dreams with him in them. Not the same but similar. Both instances involve the two of us starting to get it on and then he’s gone and I’m masterbating instead. Night before last I dreamt that I was trying to get angry at him but he was walking away and then he stopped and took the brunt of my anger but when I looked at his face he was someone else and I was even more angry at him for trying to dodge me yet again with a scapegoat.
Yeah…huge mushy—goo-goo “this is why we’re breaking up” session with the man. With lots of brilliant mixed messages from him….probably NOT a good thing to do during a void moon in Kataka but it HAD to be done. So now I’m stuck in a self-guilting rut. BRING ON THIS LEO MOON OF WHICH YOU SPEAK….
*sigh* I wish I had thighs like that.
I’m working on thighs like that! I give it a month! (if only they would grow longer too!)
well I think you have lots more going for you Pi
Yeah absolutely quintile!
Thighs like that are over rated, trust me.
Oh and I have a face all of a sudden, wtf?
It’s a very beautiful face Charley xox
Ahaha. That’s sweet, quintile. Thanks x
Saturn has me on a leash (or is it the other way around) I am SO using Satrun to fuel my loaded third House inS corpio. I have sorted out a stack of stuff and am using this influence to blast the rest of it away.
Astrobarry says I can use it to either learn moderation (Pah ! When I’m DEAD !) or to focus on one or two areas and do them through. I have chosen option B, but have chosen three areas that I intend to scour to the very bottom, as I have no intention of allowing Astrobarry to limit this scenario for me….
I actually feel very cheerful and anticipatory about this. Neurosis – nah, slows me down. Like carbs. And regrets….
Inspiring Triffid ! I read that post of his too – felt very committed to my 1-2 areas but they seemed so huge and complicated that I only got as far as noting that I would work it out and moving on to something more escapist. But you’ve made a good point – I should use this saturn to really work and push through, as its now 50% through my 8th house. Thank fuq!!
This has been some rough astro. Good. Needed. But fk me it has been rough.
i wos wondering what the @#%! was wrong with me today…side swiped by an unforeseen attack of radioactive nostalgia for the ex…(check),
eating all the foods that i know are going to trigger unpleasant side effects (check), is this what its like to be a cancer full time??
i’m sure being a Kataka is actually better thazn this Void Business of Fuck.
milleunanotte who can’t be bothered signing in
Not at all. Being a crab has its advantages. I guess some can’t handle it but if you have it natally you learn to deal.
yesterday was a horror of a day, first my car breaks down and then i have to drive it at 10k per hour with all these angry cars behind me, as if i was doing it deliberately.
then a old guy who i keep bumping into reckons he can give me some kind of reading. he says that unless i either work in the mines ( yeah sure) or option two, work on a cattle farm in the arse end of oz. Then he quizzes me on what i would have to offer the farm people. so patronizing. Then he warns that if i do not follow his advice, he reckons i end up as a bag woman!!! By the time he finished with me i decide i need to get some weed which i have been having controlled amounts of, eg not everyday. So i choose a street guy who has dark devil eyes. i ask him several times “Your not going to rip me of are you?”, he gets angry and says that he is going out of his way. He agrees to let me hold his bag. As soon as he returns he snatches his bag of me and presents me with some leaf in a bag. I am speechless. He walks of. Then i get really angry and find him at this homeless shelter, grab his bag and he scratches my wrist with his long, filthy, dirty fingernails. Somebody has hassled him to return my money tomorrow. I have decided that aloof and distant works way better in a small town. Have had enuf of neurosis and psychosis , looking forward to the cheery leo moon
Ugh… I am trying to stay sane!!! I want OUT!! I have an interview today. I am already planning my move! Does that mean I am neurotic? I need to get OUT of this job or I am gonna be in a psyche ward! I have a tendency to think that when a date shows up (10/6) that life automatically changes! Nope! 10/9 and I am still feeling sad / frustrated / boxed in and I just want out to be free again. Things happen for a reason and I know God is testing me. Especially with my money. I have nothing in my accounts. I am Thankful I am getting by with my current conditions. [I walk off stage]… LOL!!
I thought it was just me! And I have also thought I better get out of my job before I go crazy. I have been having issues at work and getting panic attacks which are worse today. Maybe the energy’s getting more intense before moving on? My goal is to make it through the day with most of my sanity in tact and rest/relax when I get home.
I am with you Femme! As soon as I get home I rip my clothes off and get into comfy clothes!!
Are you looking for a new job?
Was thinking how paranoid I was feeling on the way home and that I need to suck it up and move on. So glad to read this post … pity it was after the two squares of dark chocolate … or maybe not, it was welcome pleasure, and tomorrow I’ll be back to high energy happiness. Yay! Thanks for the pick me up Mystic.
I’m making a vegan cheesecake as a present to myself after this deadline and I don’t feel bad at all, I am going to eat the whole damn thing
Mystic, your daily today is duly noted
Hey Mystic, you predicted a day of synchronicity for us Leos and I randomly ran into three great people I know: a hot younger man who has a little crush on me, my beautician (v important person) and a work colleague who complained loudly in front of my current boss that she wished she could afford to hire me. Magic day!
well im having one of those zap zone relationship breakups, or wash out… its fucking horrible… the pain is so intense… and I have to take control of myself everynow and then or i think i might just cry myself to death….
I remind myself its change, its evolution, but the way it has been handled has caused me a lot of pain…
What are we meant to do with the pain? investigate it/ take ownership and responsibiility for it/
when others have behaved badly from their own hurt?
I need my own personal guru/mindfulness teacher/therapist by myside at most times presently…. or ha! thats me doing it every moment… sheetttt
I think you have to acknowledge the pain, decided what you can learn from it, accept it and then let it GO asap or you end up drowning in it. It’s so much easier said than done, of course but the longer it hangs around the more toxic it becomes. There’s no worse way to feel, hang on in there, let it ebb and flow and know that it will eventually flow away. Or at least become manageable.
Neurosis? I’m taking a masterclass in how to be rid of it. I’m in an endless process/calm down/move on/chill out mode, totally blaming the whole Uranus on my ASC thing. Using a full arsenal of herbs, vitamins, powders, Ayurveda, homeopathy, accupuncture, chiropractor, chamomile tea on a drip, bach flowers, sleep, breath, yoga, food. All of it helping, all of it a pleasure. Saturn’s move has pre-empted me to find more of a purpose before it really kicks off and I’m forced in some way. Sadly it’s still stuck way in my 7th house, I have an extremely large 7th house BUT I suppose on the upside I can plan for the eventual 8th house f***ery, perhaps even stay a step ahead.
godDAMN I wish I could afford Mystic right now…I just checked the blog today to see if there was any explanation for the bullshit that went down last night and, lo and behold, there it is.
I got into this weird emotional “fight” with my boyfriend last night where I bared (some) of my insecurities about not feeling loved enough, wishing I could be as impassive as him, etc. etc. and all it did was make us both feel fucking awful. I need this shit to be over.
Oh, and: is it everyone’s experience that Aries/Pisces cusp dudes are totally emotionally unavailable? Is that just a thing? We both have 8th House Moons (mine’s Virgo, his is Cancer) and it’s really just fucking terrible. Constantly trying to get on the same level and being totally unable to, but also being incapable of detaching.
The only one I’ve had experience with is the one I am dealing with right now and it’s a fuqed-up mess. Completely emotionally unavailable but still drives by my apt every night. I wish both of us luck, however it may turn out.. :-/
Yup just broke up with one 26th March righhhtt…. Same idea too detached when I really need him to be there for me. I’m needy!! There I said it, but I am also giving, hence deserving better then this detached crap.
Yaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!!! I was in bed feeling a nuero attack coming on, thought it best to get up make some chamomile tea and light some candles…then felt the need to check astro report! Lo and behold I am not alone, how comforting thankyou everyone and all the best with impending fabulousness xx
Mystic
thanks for clarifying combined effects of mid-November eclipse and mercury retro in today’s Aqua-Aqua rising daily – answered a question directly for me.
K-Gem
Ha! Snail was my power animal . . . on Monday
Yeah, it’s been a doozy. Even my kids have been uber-crabby (cancer sun/Pisces asc for one and Pisces sun/Cancer asc for the other).
