The First Dark Moon of 2012

Fade to Black by Metallica, Back in Black by AC/DC.
There is no end of topical songs to hear on rock radio to mirror the mood. I've been wearing the black t-shirt all day and my grey steak has returned to my dark hair ;)
No, it is the first dark moon of 2012.
'Stay in Light' sounds in my head but I let the music lead me to the dark side - 'in the witching hour' - Animal by Def Leppard.
Alone by Heart is a step too far - more a song for tears and heartbreak, which I have resorted to often.
The dark moon is mischievous, playful and mysterious - not a time for romantic love.
So where will the dark moon lead me tonight <];)

Blue Monday

If you are convincing, you can get people to believe anything.
Today was not a Blue Monday for me.
Sure things were

• tired
• delayed
• busy
• late

I just felt a bit sadly crestfallen today. Not a big issue, just a little forlorn.

So onward and upward! Smile 1, 2, 3

New Year's Day Horoscope - Patterns again

This is the first horoscope I have posted. It might be nice to look back in another year, God willing, to see if I followed the advice from horoscope and re-occurring patterns and how it all works out (or not - haha, failed already ;)).
*Please note there is no Love forecast for today :(

Daily Forecast for Jan 01, 2012 by: Kim Rogers-Gallagher astrology.com

Molting Season Saturn Semisextile Neptune December 22, 2011 to March 27, 2012 It's time to let go of each and every one of those 'useless' emotions. That includes (for starters) guilt, worry, regret and anything even remotely resembling fear. Whatever it is, you can pull it off. All you have to do is believe in yourself.

Energy Saturn Semisextile Neptune December 22, 2011 to March 27, 2012 Yes, situations are passing out of your life now, some of which you weren't planning on living without. Mourn. Grieve. Then move on. It's time for new life.

Career Uranus Opposition Jupiter December 18, 2011 to February 20, 2012 It's the opportunity you've been waiting for, and it's actually arrived. Don't hesitate, not for a second. This is a one-shot deal.

The New Year Approaches

At the Passing of Midwinter last year, my hope was the generous spirited season would will continue well into the New Year and beyond. 


Thankfully it has.


It has been a very sociable year, with new friends and old bringing much delight to my life :).
You can also tell the Facebook influence, though I still struggle with the smilies but have taken my own <];).


Also my radar has been working overtime all year, picking up patterns but, as I give advice to others who seek it, I do not follow my own nor of my trusted wicked witch. Perhaps in the next year, before the patterns snowball and engulf me ;).

The Winter Solstice

Last winter's solstice was heralded in with a pink moon - what would it bring?
A chance taken - and wonderfully rewarded.


It was not so this winter solstice ...
All About Eve - Lady Moonlight


As the year turns towards the long road to Spring, there shall be no more Missed chances an' the same regrets.

I am me

Taken from Indigo & the Angels - Living in the realm of "I am doing what I want to do"

" Repeat after me "I am me, I love me, and I deserve to be all I can be, no one else can ever be me and I do what I want to do, as I make me happy first" "

Just past the new moon, just past midnight

The cycle ends, as it began, in August - but my thoughts are on midsummer, patterns and, as always, love.
