Recurring themes in my mother’s life and my own. When I was a child, my mother and us lived door to a miserable old cow, she never spoke even when my mother said hello, she would put her head down and scuttle off inside. Nevertheless her lovely husband would ring -Mercury- communicate with -my mother next door- third house- and politely ask her to run round with a message-Gemini- for the miserable old bat, his wife. My mother did this numerous times and each time the bat would eventually open the door and after receiving the message would slam the door shut without a thank-you or a glance up to meet my mothers face. It was all very odd, this continued over years until my mother got hellish pissed off, and once when he rang she explained why she was not doing it again. The husband was shocked, he had no idea his wife had never even said a single hello never mind a thank-you to my mother. Of course he had not noticed, as she was a narcissist, to him she was the epitome of charm. He likely was was an empath, he saw only the good in people and was blind to her ignorant behaviour.

When I moved here to the rural idyll where I now live I had met the exact same scenario with my own neighbour, she was a carbon copy, no one believed it , my own husband was determined she would say hello to him, no, blanked completely, my builder came once, he said watch this. I did. Nothing. Head down, she scuttled off. It was simply unbelievable. When it was their child’s birthday she would send her lovely empathic husband round who would ask if we minded them parking ten cars on our drive?WTF? Yes I fooking do mind you miserable old bat, you can’t even say fooking hello. Needless to say my husband who opened the door said there was no problem..he’s very neighbourly with his Mercury is his third, and park they did.

These scenarios, and there were many, many examples both in my mothers life and in mine with these neighbours.. each time they kicked off our natal peregrine Venus posited innocently in our respective third houses, it would be receiving aspects from transit planets effectively having its arsed kicked in the neighbourhood. This Venus position and it’s peregrination that both my mother and I share perfectly explains our sibling relationships. Venus is a little beauty, full of sweetness and charm….no more needs to be said…. (I’m getting this now, as my natal Venus is in Capricorn currently being transited by the lunar nodes. Same as yesterday, same as the day before post and actually last week also….astrology simply blows me away….)
