My Saggo Neighbour Dude…

It’s odd but when I posted Sagg L’Uomo Nouvelle - my mini-guide to Saggo Men – i had not really gotten to know my Ultra-Sagg neighbour. I was sort of channelling the Saggo-spaz of a few guys I knew;  a photographer from the past and my  local Sagg Kickboxing Champion in particular. However, my Saggo Neighbour Dude fits the LOT…

* Sagg Neighbour Dude  is 34 but seriously looks 22 and boyish for even that.

* He is fascinated by the Occult and any possible insights into his character re astrology/whatevs but totally refuses any form of divination as he just prefers to “see how things roll”. Secretly runs a v.successful side biz supplying sound equipment here & there but that has apparently totally used up his scheduling/divination capability so all else IS spontaneous. Or else.

* Sagg Neighbour Dude is a Muso who lives in what is known in my neighbourhood as the “house of hot musos” as it’s a very rehearsal-friendly venue with a landlord who has been committed to a mental asylum. He whistles when he walks and specialises in breezy candour.

* Sagg Neighbour Dude has a thing for what he calls “exotic” girlfriends. The latest one looks like a Japanese anime figure, smokes joints in the street, is ultra-young and they met when she went to the House of Hot Musos to try and get them to convert to eco power. ie; she a door to door salesgirl. He cannot and will not settle. I don’t envy the ladies in love with him but it’s fun theatre.

* Sagg Neighbour Dude can literally stand in the back lane, ostensibly having just been putting his rubbish out, and conduct a conversation that goes on for hours and with anyone. I am talking total blarney but all with an airy light patter that defies mental gravity.

* Sagg Neighbour Dude does a ‘real’ band and a ‘covers’ band for money – he is equally relaxed and happy when talking about either, not a hint of self-consciousness or worrying about perceptions.

* Sagg Neighbour Dude lopes up and down the local main street like a labrador – that is his natural gait and whenever i see him he has in earplugs for either i-Pod or phone & is raving away. Is NOT stalwart like Taurus/Cancerian neighbours – if something is WRONG he hides under doona like cat during thunderstorm.

* Sagg Neighbour Dude has about 700 close friends (not including the 6000 on Facebook etc) and the determination to be always an extremely UP, amusing and consciousness raising presence, whether the discussion be about the council’s bin policy, Red Bull advertisements making him wistful, Vivaldi, alchemy or sunsets.

* S.N.D fidgets and moves constantly. Is kinetic. Claims reason cannot commit etc has to do with kinetic sleeping style; sleepwalks, strangles things in sleep, needs entire emperor sized bed to self once copulation has occurred, likes to leap up at odd (polyphasic naturally?) hours to compose something and then crash back into REM without someone grizzling and essentially thinks most lovers “sleep facists.”

* All this is why I kinda like Saggos & my Sagg Neighbour Dude – the ability to make light & do it with original style is SO immense…Yes?

Moon Into Leo!

egyptian_goddess_sekhmetSekhmet: Ancient Egyptian Warrior Goddess

Sekhmet, the Lion Headed Goddess…a brilliant poem by Margaret Atwood.

The Moon is in Leo & through until Sunday, a fittingly dramatic backdrop for the Venus-Pluto square. Hard to hide a THING under such flamboyant stars. So you may as well be brave & bedazzling.

“…I am the Passion of Lightning and the Command of Thunder,
What exists, IS, because I have Willed it To Be.
I am the Queen of Heaven in a Mansion of Fire,
I am First among those in the Great Sky-Boat of Eternity…”

From Hymn To Sekhmet – the rest is here… It is actually from the Egyptian Book Of The Dead but have not linked to THAT.

Bad Guru Syndrome

I bitched it up re Bad Guru syndrome someplace in the Comments recently. My personal Grudge Flashpoint is pass-agg, controlling New Agie guys in muslin pants who sigh a lot in sort of faux empathy & talk a good game about their stupendous tantric-kundalini rooting skills BUT they resort REAL fast to ye olde “you must be frigid” drivel upon rejection.

There are variations of this gent but they all like to use the Occult/psychology etc to manipulate people (usually young girls or naive women) into the sack. I had one Bad Guru tell me I was fuqing with my karma by not “honouring the connection” between us. Another did my Tarot and managed to mis-read the whole thing to say it was about our growing sexual attraction. Vile.

Yes, yes i know women do this sort of thing too. But they are less likely to be sexual predators and more into psychic vamping i.m.o.

I get e-mails ALL the time from peeps saying “HELP” as some fairground psychic took a quick peek at an ephemeris and pronounced said person to be destined to be forever poor or not to have a loving relationship due to karmic shit etc etc. So I have to sit there and say i don’t even know what there is IN this chart to indicate it. I mean, you could technically argue that Saturn someplace is bound to be problematic until you sort it but the truth is that once sorted, your Saturn area becomes your shining pride & joy.

I am not saying i am the greatest astrologer in the world but i think there is something so vile with Bad Guru Syndrome; people are taking these amazing & magical tools but using them to manipulate or control someone. Beware the Control Freak healer/guru whatevs. And, do dish, on any of your own Bad Guru Syndrome experiences, please.  Ages ago i postulated that an awesome amount of famous Bad Gurus are/were Taurean men but i have not the inclination to trawl through them checking birth-dates again right now. It would send my Dark Moon PMT situation to Defcon 5.
