You may see something that seems SO real you think you can reach out and touch it. Yet, your thoughts may be completely unrealistic and grounded only in wishful thinking. You may expect and demand that people give you whatever you want unconditionally, yet without taking responsibility for how you get what you want or how your behavior affects others, your expectations are magical, perhaps known only by you. Maybe you "should" always get your way, just because, no reason other than "God is on your side", or more likely, that you are addicted to life the way it is. In reality, the world was not made entirely in your image and if your defenses do not allow you to see where you are expecting too much, you are likely to continue to have magical expectations that are unfulfilled. If you're constantly disappointed with others, perhaps your expectations and demands of others are not realistic or compassionate. If self-pity gets you down-- start to view others more realistically, not simply as adjuncts of yourself or a way to get your agenda met. Put yourself in the position of someone before rushing to assume, judge, or criticize. Fault and blame are easy to assign when Saturn and Neptune make contact. What you do by blaming someone -- or even yourself-- is block or obscure the real reasons for events and reactions. While Saturn and Neptune oppose, you may realize that the more you try to cover up or hide the truth, the more you keep yourself stuck and immobile with the best glue of all-- guilt. When you permit yourself to act out frustrations on others, regardless of the reality of the situation, when you insist others feel shamed and pathetic, nothing is solved, and the situation persists..... Doing hurtful, resentful things for "spiritual" reasons may be the biggest lie you will hear or tell yourself during this period. It is very unlikely you will know the real reasons anyone is doing anything while Saturn and Neptune oppose. It's easy to take advantage of someone's kindness and then turn it around and blame them for anything you perceive is wrong with your life. Blaming the victim becomes especially fashionable while Saturn and Neptune oppose. But blame can be counterproductive as it does that change anything or add to your growth. It is your choice, whether to cover up your feelings with defensive pretense or show some natural vulnerability, the kind that shows others you're an honest person and gives them a way to approach you, perhaps even start a friendship. If more growth and involvement is what you hope to achieve, showing your vulnerability helps others to join in. Note: Saturn will oppose Neptune from the beginning of winter 2005 through late winter 2007. |
