Never helps me! I never understood that one. Poppadoms and a jar of mango chutney on the other hand. Well, I met him when I had an eclipse in my 1st/7th and this one is falling in the same place, not sure if it really means end of our connection though. I cant imagine going out with anyone else, seems like I would be headed for a fall again. Despite my best efforts, every man that I have ever loved has left me or behaved so as I had no choice to leave them..kind of constructive dismissal.

Anyway, a very excellent astrologer on the web said this for all signs for next week (Sat 16 - 25)

so here comes the lunar eclipse
sometimes called
the dropping of the other shoe
if you've been waiting for something to happen
or feel like you've been living in limbo
you're right
there is a hush that's fallen over your life
everybody's life in fact
we're all waiting for the direct motion of Pluto
in a couple of weeks
and at the moment
those who feel unloved or unappreciated
or who have been seeking something
that isn't there
will wake up, grow up
and face their responsibilities now
and know that you can wait for something
that doesn't exist
at least not yet
so you have to get over yourself
and own up to your responsibilities
and that's what makes your life your life



8.20 and he hasnt called. What a turnaround hey? I guess I could see it coming but I could hardly believe it. 10 years down the drain. God, if I'd known then what I know now, would I have bothered? I suppose I got my house out of it (back home, about to get rerented, I'm not sure what will happen but I know he would want me to buy him out and let me have it, rather than him. And theres no way he'd force me to sell). The horrible thing is, I know he is sat there dreading calling me and putting it off, he literally no longer wants to speak to me I guess.

The funny thing is, we still have to meet.. so if not tonight, he wont on Friday night (never met me on a Friday since he left 9 months ago). So that leaves Saturday... on the lunar eclipse, exact our Sun-Moon conjunction. In the same spot but in reverse, on our first kiss all those years ago. And I will speak up. And he will tell me... "Oh Al...I dont love you anymore, I just want to be on my own...". What a reversal...back then I wasnt wanting to be with him...but he never gave up for months and months, and we met and we talked and I hedged..and then he kissed me in an alley way behind a pub one Saturday lunchtime whilst I was holding my bicycle...and my stomach somersaulted and then I ran off.

I wish I could go back and tell her to take the upmost care in this relationship from the start, because it will end horribly and you will be heartbroken and reproach yourself for all those times you behaved badly.

8.30 no call. We were usually in the pub by now, chatting.
