This new moon is also the beginning of the Chinese New Year. I’ll possibly post about that on the day so moving right along. Aquarius is a sign of quirkiness and independence. I know plenty of Aquarians including my mother, brother and Aunt, as well as quite a few Aquarian friends and they are all very different. I find this sign the most difficult to place. It’s in my 3rd house but I don’t have any planets in this sign, so perhaps I just don’t have much experience with it. I should perhaps investigate it more.
This post is probably going to be more about the dark moon than the new moon. Today has been, to coin a phrase often used by Mystic Medusa, psychobats!
I woke with a rush of concerns about Tom. I decided, stupidly to look up that horrible cyclone Yasi, which was a big mistake. I’d spoken to him last night and he’d told me he was leaving at 10.00am. When I’d spoken to him earlier yesterday I thought he was about to leave. I didn’t hear from him again today until 2.00. My imagination went into overdrive. He was in Sydney, not Brisbane. He is fine, but it was not a pretty 4 hours at my end.
I tried to distract myself by sorting out my finances to find the big final payment I was supposed to receive from my past employee hadn’t arrived as I was informed by email in December. It was due yesterday. I emailed them and received a vague response which didn’t really please me since I’d emptied my account last week paying all my bills cause I was expecting that money. Today one of my automatic payments that I expected would be well and truly covered, defaulted. The response I got when I phoned that former employer irked me to say the least.
My advertising person who I should have known better than to believe when she told me how great she was decided to do a last minute dash on getting it right today just before her deadline. Every time the phone rang for her to make last minute adjustments and requests I was hoping to hear my son’s voice not hers!
It was stinking hot. We had virtually no customers to distract myself with. Those that came, were in groups and when I was by myself, so as to create extra pressure. Basically, I haven’t had a good day.
On a brighter note, my daughter started her first teaching position at the Special Developmental School today. She visited me after her work. We had dinner and laughs together and I felt very proud of her. She looked great, just like a teacher:-). I appreciated Darin’s support today while I blubbered and worried all over him. He had his own things going on (not my place to mention) and yet I felt supported by him throughout the highs and lows of my day. Now, with a cool breeze coming through the front door and the knowledge that my son is safe and the day is over, I am ok. I read a twitter today when I was researching Yasi about collecting donations to send Anna Bligh on a holiday once this is all over… well deserved. It makes my whinging pale into insignificance when I imagine the pressure on others. My concerns are so personal really!
