Scorpio 23° (November 15)

Will sleep most of the day as am feeling depressed. Probably clinically. I will watch as many movies as I’ve never seen as possible. There seems to be a “Graduate” theme running through my options. I called Bartlett and Dowd and neither one will end up calling me back. Friends are becoming increasingly hard to find in the end. I have to reckon with the fact that I have been cancelled by a great many people, but I will use that to my advantage. Maybe a one-man-show called cancelled. We shall see. I will go deep perhaps into relaunching the festival. I have to do something. I will get some octopus at Strangers but I do need to stop spending money on food as it is becoming draining. It is just so hard to make a meal for oneself, sit down and eat it, then do the dishes, all alone. It is the saddest thing about this new life. I have no family. I am living in a strange place. I don’t really have friends here—reenter that cancelled thing; maybe I should just tell people that it would be really important to me to be able to chat for five minutes, as I am going through something so major in life. I’ll try that and see what happens. I am not only hurt by the person who left me I am hurt by all the friends who have likewise taken the opportunity to drop me like a hot potato.

More about Virgo: Mary Magdalene’s song in Jesus Christ (Pisces archetype) Superstar is “I Don’t Know How To Love Him” which speaks volumes on both character’s natures. Whereas the Fish man cannot be reeled in, the Virgin woman struggles with going for characters that are unavailable. As we discussed, she invents relationships that exist only in her head, her objects of affection often never having a clue. The Peanuts character Sally Brown is a Virgo (as is Charlie, the Everyman, the lame but lovable mensch Hephaestus archetype); she is the tag-along little sister who is notoriously in love with Linus (I accidentally said Shroeder in our meeting) who is/chooses to be oblivious to her affections. So perhaps, on some level, Stevie is really in love with Manny the Linus who is unavailable for obvious reasons—yet theirs is a love affair of sorts. The traits you outlined for Virgo are spot on for the most part; but for the museum work. Think Monica and the meaning of her name “to advise”; it would be the perfect job in which to overachieve and when put in know-it-all positions, Virgo is totally comfortable in the spotlight; also Virgo never stops asking for help (why all the other Friends run from Monica at times). Virgo Stevie and Libra Manny share the same sense of love alluding them but in different ways. You mention worry and yes Virgo can be fairly neurotic and suffer from certain disorders, anorexia in particular. Why is Monica so thin. She is always serving others but does she herself eat? The mottos of Virgo are I work and I serve, both of which, in the modern vernacular, are pretty “fierce” expressions. In Sextrology her chapter is called The Vessel because she is a conduit, meant to be “working it” and “serving realness.” She may always be trying some new self-help routine. Her life lesson to learn is discretion (stop serial complaining to everyone in her contacts, for example) and to realize her own true nature, albeit (paradoxically) through the adoption, appropriation or knowledge and influences of others, the mimicking little sister becoming a woman in her own right. This is the mutable-earth sign, so it is about change but the change is slow, nearly tectonic. Her choosing unavailable characters (and imagining relationships that aren’t there)  is a subconscious way of delaying the inevitable, perhaps, while still acting “as if” she is in the sexual game. Also subconscious: To remain pure, which is why Virgo’s are not only clean freaks but also germ phobes. The Virgin is holding a phallic symbol which she knows if she ingests (or, with which, she gestates) she will be changed by the act. The discretion aspect of the sign is discerning between what is nutrient and what is waste in life. Another archetype is Pandora who brings all virtue and vice into the world. Pandora means “all-given” and she is an amalgamation of all the goddesses best traits (just like Virgo girl is that borrower thereof); but it also means “all-giver” and is another dame for Demeter, the earth goddess, whom Virgo woman ultimately, archetypally becomes. The sign is ruled by Mercury on the earthly plane (unlike Gemini on the air plane)—so there is an alchemy to the sign. The caduceus “staff” of Mercury is the symbol of the medical profession to this day. It is about removing dis-ease, impurities, curing, literally making alchemical changes to the material body (earth).
