What a long strange trip it's been....  Sometimes, especially when It's quiet up there, I find myself going off into flights of imagination.  I occasionally blog about these, disguising them as time travel or something similar.  But I've been in a block phase recently, questioning the validity of everything that I am and that I do.  And yesterday I found myself with about eighty others in a five hour meeting that ended up with me being elected once again (under a minor degree of protest) to be a director of the Big Green Gathering, with it's half a million debt and myriads of different opinions as to how to move forward.  However, there's a consensus of desire for progression as opposed to liquidation, and I'll give it my best shot.  Watch this space for updates over the coming eighteen months as we aim to put on the green event of the century in 2011.  Have I yet again bitten off more than I can chew?  Time will tell...  Meanwhile - this week.  That bright red star in the sky about three hours after sunset?  That's Mars, looking particularly vibrant at this time, just underneath Pollux and Castor, the stars of Gemini.  And there's going to be a spectacular full Moon in six/seven days time, opposite Jupiter as well as the Sun, so I expect this week to be progressively larger and expansive, not necessarily a good thing.   Those Pisces born in February and Virgo's born in August are really struggling to keep stability at the moment, but for all of us the coming week is a time of challenge, in that the temptation to go over the top and let things get larger than life is stronger than ever at the moment, so don't buy into petty dramas lest they become crisis', in which case you'll be the one to sort it all out AND you'll be the one that gets the blame.  The best option this week is to step back and not buy fully into anything that kicks off around you.  Remember - Jupiter is hot gas.  It has no surface or substance, it just brings light and heat.
