Júpiter Quadratura Sol: Uma questão de autocontrole

Este pode ser um excelente trânsito, mas você deve estar atenta a certos problemas que podem anular todos os benefícios. Basicamente, ele representa um teste para sua disciplina e comedimento. Se não for uma pessoa controlada, acabará por reagir a esta influência virando a mesa em algum ponto, extenuando-se ou iludindo-se com a idéia de que nada pode dar errado. Ou pode desperdiçar totalmente algum recurso valioso para descobrir depois que já não tem o que precisa. Às vezes, surge a sensação de que a sorte vai cuidar de tudo que a gente precisa sem esforço nenhum, mas isso também é uma ilusão.
Entretanto, este trânsito pode trazer uma chance de verdadeiro crescimento, além de outras boas oportunidades. Tudo depende do controle que você tem sobre si. É preciso saber exatamente onde se está e quais são as reais necessidades a fim de tirar plena vantagem deste trânsito. Além disso, é preciso saber quando não se deve ir adiante. Determinar o momento de parar é a verdadeira questão.
Às vezes, o trânsito induz à inflação do ego e ao orgulho excessivo. Cuidado para não agir com presunção, pois acabará provocando nas pessoas o desejo de humilhá-la um pouco. Aqui também é preciso saber quando parar.
Sob certas circunstâncias, é possível que este trânsito deflagre conflitos com a lei ou contra alguém num tribunal de justiça. Você pode ganhar ou perder, mas evite assumir o papel de defensora da honra e da dignidade ultrajadas. Procure descobrir qual é exatamente o problema e busque uma solução satisfatória para todos.

Estou a ouvir esta em loop
God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen : Lyrics
God rest ye merry, gentlemen
Let nothing you dismay
Remember, Christ, our Saviour
Was born on Christmas day
To save us all from Satan's power
When we were gone astray
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
In Bethlehem, in Israel,
This blessed Babe was born
And laid within a manger
Upon this blessed morn
The which His Mother Mary
Did nothing take in scorn
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
From God our Heavenly Father
A blessed Angel came;
And unto certain Shepherds
Brought tidings of the same:
How that in Bethlehem was born
The Son of God by Name.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
"Fear not then," said the Angel,
"Let nothing you affright,
This day is born a Saviour
Of a pure Virgin bright,
To free all those who trust in Him
From Satan's power and might."
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
The shepherds at those tidings
Rejoiced much in mind,
And left their flocks a-feeding
In tempest, storm and wind:
And went to Bethlehem straightway
The Son of God to find.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
And when they came to Bethlehem
Where our dear Saviour lay,
They found Him in a manger,
Where oxen feed on hay;
His Mother Mary kneeling down,
Unto the Lord did pray.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy
Now to the Lord sing praises,
All you within this place,
And with true love and brotherhood
Each other now embrace;
This holy tide of Christmas
All other doth deface.
O tidings of comfort and joy,
Comfort and joy
O tidings of comfort and joy

As Coisas que eu Tenho Por Fazer
Tanta coisa para fazer.
Porque é que eu não estou a fazer as coisas
Que tenho para fazer?
Porquê? Porquê? Porquê?
Porque não há Prazer nas Coisas Por Fazer.
(Isto é um poema-mínimo.)

Zeca Afonso - Os Vampiros (Original)
Vampiros
José Afonso
No céu cinzento sob o astro mudo
Batendo as asas Pela noite calada
Vêm em bandos Com pés veludo
Chupar o sangue Fresco da manada
Se alguém se engana com seu ar sisudo
E lhes franqueia As portas à chegada
Eles comem tudo Eles comem tudo
Eles comem tudo E não deixam nada [Bis]
A toda a parte Chegam os vampiros
Poisam nos prédios Poisam nas calçadas
Trazem no ventre Despojos antigos
Mas nada os prende Às vidas acabadas
São os mordomos Do universo todo
Senhores à força Mandadores sem lei
Enchem as tulhas Bebem vinho novo
Dançam a ronda No pinhal do rei
Eles comem tudo Eles comem tudo
Eles comem tudo E não deixam nada
No chão do medo Tombam os vencidos
Ouvem-se os gritos Na noite abafada
Jazem nos fossos Vítimas dum credo
E não se esgota O sangue da manada
Se alguém se engana Com seu ar sisudo
E lhe franqueia As portas à chegada
Eles comem tudo Eles comem tudo
Eles comem tudo E não deixam nada
Eles comem tudo Eles comem tudo
Eles comem tudo E não deixam nada

Decan 2 Leo Horoscope 2012 (o meu)
Decan 2 Leo Horoscope 2012
Leo decan 2 has a very lucky 2012 and it starts early because the December 2011 lunar eclipse is sextile your decan. With the June 2012 lunar eclipse trine your decan, basically for most of the year you can relax and enjoy life with little stress and more confidence and inner balance. These helpful aspects from the lunar eclipses will put a focus on more balanced relationships, a good year for closer interactions with family and friends, tighter bonding between couples, and more opportunities for finding someone new if your are single. You also get a couple of Jupiter transits this year, and Jupiter is a fortunate planet bringing growth, travel, and more spiritual fulfillment.
The first Jupiter transit can be challenging, but it wont last too long. Jupiter square your decan only lasts from March to early May. During this time you will still be feeling optimistic and happy, and there will be opportunities everywhere. However during this time, the urge to expand and the extra enthusiasm can mean that you push it too far or get involves in too many projects than you can handle. So try to curb your enthusiasm a little during this boisterous phase and focus on fewer rather than too many projects. Try not to overindulge or overspend, and also go easy on your friends and partners. If you have plans for something big, then better to hold off for a month or two because from mid June right through till the end of 2012, you have one of the luckiest transits of all, Jupiter sextile Sun. Now combined with the great eclipse, the rest of 2012 promised to be most fortunate. Excellent confidence and optimism, warm relationships, and the chance to make some healthy increases in your wealth: money, possessions, and importantly inner happiness. Travel, holidays, new studies and new relationships are all favored.

Fórum Fantástico (Telheiras)
Fui ao Fórum Fantástico e ficaria lá o resto da sessão porque houve intervenções bastante interessantes. Aprendi muita coisa. Certamente aprenderia mais se tivesse ficado - mas amanhã tenho de me levantar às cinco da manhã, por isso não dava.
Conheci António de Macedo que me explicou algumas coisas sobre o funcionamento da SPA e me contou também que, no seu romance O Sangue e o Fogo, há uma personagem que se chama Ágata :D
Sincronismos! Que giro.
Hoje fiz tanta coisa. Tive boas notícias também.
Não tive uma epifania, mas quase. Digamos que é uma espécie de “epifania mild crónica”. É uma verdade que eu já sei há muito, mas não a vivo.
Daqui a pouco tenho de me ir deitar.

Life Update
Uma série de coisas, mais ou menos desconexas:
- 9 euros de gasóleo equivale a seis litros. Ok.
- estou a emagrecer embora coma que nem um abade no emprego. Ao menos não pago para ir ao ginásio!
- tenho de pagar a segunda prestação das propinas. Ver se o faço hoje.
- gostava de ter um gato, mas não queria que ele estivesse sempre sempre em casa...
- espero que não chova hoje. Ou só depois de eu ter a roupa seca.
- Devia de estar a estudar.
- Não tenho tempo para nada.
- Tenho dificuldades em disciplinar-me. Devia, por exemplo, Só ir à net Depois de uma hora a estudar (ou a escrever).
- Ando há uma data de tempo atrás do livro "Sin Notícias de Gurb" do Eduardo Mendonza. Há na biblioteca. Preguiça de lá ir.
- Devia limpar a casa. Pois...
- Esqueço-me sempre de algum item necessário cada vez que vou fazer compras. Só hoje reparei que não tenho pastilhas anti-calcário.
- Hoje: Lua Cheia a 18º Touro, em trígono com a minha Vénus natal.

Nov 06, 2011 - Transiting Mercury Conjunct Natal Neptune
IMAGINATIVE CONCEPTS
Blurry thoughts render vague, rambling words. You know the feeling you
want to convey. Language, though, offers no way of translating it. True,
pictures speak a thousand words. Draw a diagram. Speak in parable. Use
verbal imagery to paint a palette of feelings. With a groggy sense of
still being asleep, you seek to talk in a supposedly awake world. Take
your time. Definitely make notes. Stay in sequence. Strive to maintain
focus as you simultaneously try to speak and think.
Some days are astrologically busier than others. Currently, these
other influences can add complexity or contradiction to your life.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Nov 06, 2011 - Transiting Venus Conjunct Natal Neptune
DIVINE INSPIRATION, IDEAL LOVE
You could begin to feel as if you need to retreat and reflect on your
life. You may become serious and introspective, yet at the same time
dreamy and imaginative. It's the perfect time to lose yourself in a
sentimental movie, romantic novel or magnificent daydream. Just be sure to
come down to earth long enough to give some attention to the practical
demands and financial obligations of your everyday life.

Treating the Mentally Ill
When Dante was writing The Divine Comedy, the insane were believed to be possessed and were burned at the stake. In The Divine Comedy the word “bizarre” first appeared to describe a madman.
When Galileo was proving that the Earth went around the Sun, the insane were given holy water to drink from a church bell. If that didn’t work, they were burned at the stake. Want to guess how many times it worked?
About the time that Heidelberg and Cologne Universities were founded, Bethlehem Hospital in London became an institution for the insane. It was so poorly funded that its inmates were given licenses to go begging for food. The hospital was such an ungoverned mess that the way Bethlehem was pronounced, Bedlam, became a word for uncontrolled madness.
In the years Shakespeare was writing his plays, you could take your family on an outing for six-pence and view the madhouse chamber of horrors where the restrained violent, often egged on by visitors, would snap and snarl at you, or you could be entertained by inmates who believed they were Oliver Cromwell, Julius Caesar, and even the Virgin Mary. Great laughs.
In France, while Lavoisier was proving that air was a mixture of mostly oxygen and nitrogen, the inspector general of French hospitals reported that thousands of lunatics were locked up in prisons without anyone even thinking of administering the slightest remedy. The half-mad mingled with the totally deranged. Some were in chains. Some were free to roam. He called them the step-children of life.
While Harvey was developing his proof of circulation, the inmates at Bedlam were used as guinea pigs. At the end of each May they were all bled, then made to vomit weekly, then purged. The attendants (much less the inmates!) must have dreaded that time of the year.
Into the beginning of the 1800s, when John Dalton introduced the atomic theory into chemistry, the insane were treated with such loony cures as plasters of mashed up Spanish fly, or had the veins in the forehead cut so the head could be bled, removing the insane spirits, presumedly. Later, on an opposite theory, inmates were strapped in a chair called the gyrator that spun the inmate around so more blood would circulate to his head.
In the Soviet Union they tried prolonged sleep therapy on the insane. America used hydrotherapy, placing agitated patients in hot water for days so that blood flow increased to the body’s largest organ, its skin, thus lowering respiration and blood pressure and creating a state of relaxation.
In the 1930s the increase of admissions of patients diagnosed as schizophrenic was so high it was theorized there must be a schizococcus germ that could pass on schizophrenia to an offspring.
The Nazis tested methods of mass murder first on mental patients before they applied them to other undesirable populations. At the start of the Third Reich there were 200,000 patients in mental hospitals. At the end of the Third Reich there were 20,000. An interesting twist in early Nazi civilization is that it was deemed humanitarian to euthanize incurable mental patients, but not Jews. Jews were considered subhuman and so not worthy of euthanization.
One attempted treatment for schizophrenia, as well as depression and psychosis, was — what many people regarded as a kind of euthanasia — the lobotomy. Its main American proponent, Dr. Walter Freeman, would make driving trips across America to stop at state hospitals and perform the procedure he had simplified to the point he felt that a sterile field wasn’t even necessary. First you anesthetized the patient with electro-shock, rolled back his eyelid, place the tip of instrument, a leucotome, which was a modified ice pick, against his tear duct (which is 98 percent sterile) and drove it through his eye socket with a hammer whack, shoved it into the brain and wiggled it around. Forty-thousand people were lobotomized between 1945 and 1955 in America. In 1949, the Portuguese doctor who first did lobotomies was the co-winner of the Nobel prize for medicine and was cited for discovering the value of freeing the brain from the disturbing effects of its pre-frontal lobes.
So…who were the crazy people??
http://www.eleanorsullivan.com/treating-the-insane-the-past-is-stranger-than-fiction/
Sempre tive curiosidade em saber como é que os ricos tratam os seus doentes mentais. Será que têm acesso a melhores cuidados médicos? Será que tomam drogas Melhores, mais Modernas, com Melhores resultados? Basicamente o que eu queria saber era se os ricos, só por serem ricos, são Menos Loucos (quando o são) que os outros.
Foi-me dito que não, que é igual a um cidadão normal. Só que o tratamento é feito em casa, onde os médicos vão e há enfermeiras a tomar conta destes pacientes 24 horas por dia.
A diferença é (a grande diferença) - é que os ricos mantêm os seus loucos, os seus esquizofrénicos, escondidos. Lá, no quartinho, com cuidado médico permanente - mas escondidos.
Espantei-me um pouco, nem sei porquê.
Sei que nos Estados Unidos da América pessoas com problemas mentais que cometem crimes horríveis - podem ir parar à cadeia e ser condenadas à morte. Ou seja, não é mentira nenhuma dizer-se que os EUA mata os seus doentes mentais.
Mas como será em países árabes? Como os tratarão lá? Terão acesso a medicamentos? Se não, e se acaso cometem crimes - será que os matam sem apelo nem agravo, sem ter em consideração o seu estado mental?
E em África, como será? Como serão tratados os doentes mentais?
Questões que eu tenho comigo própria... porque, com estas pessoas, não se pode atribuir Culpa. Nem graus de culpa. Façam o que fizerem - não é culpa delas. Não foi o vinho, não foram as drogas, não foram decisões de tomar tais substâncias que facilitaram um eventual crime. Isso não se pode alegar nunca. E eu penso que, havendo crime sem haver Culpa, é algo extremamente difícil de tragar para o ser humano. Nós procuramos sempre culpados - mesmo que eles não existam.
Bem, vou ao banhinho.

- ando a trabalhar à tarde alguns dias. Acho que prefiro trabalhar durante a manhã. Parece que fico com mais tempo;
- tenho de estudar mais;
- ainda não acabei de corrigir os zombies, pelo amor de deus;
- o livro sobre o Futuro de Portugal (segundo a Astrologia) está mais que parado;
- não vou participar no nanowrimo este ano (não tenho tempo para tudo);
- gostava mesmo de viver unicamente da escrita, andar a passear pelo mundo, ficar em hotéis de 5 estrelas, ser rica, mas rica a sério e. E sei lá. Mais nada (com a minha sorte, quando eu deixar de querer isto - é quando o vou ter).
E pronto. Por agora é tudo.

Marte (t.) Conjunção Sol
Muitas energias ***
As energias de seu ego estarão em alta, o que significa que hoje terá plenas condições de se defender de quem quer que seja. Estará muito confiante e não permitirá que ninguém se aproveite de você. Infelizmente, isso também pode representar brigas e discussões. Tente lembrar-se que os outros também têm ego. Você não precisa derrotar as pessoas para manter sua posição. Procure ter especial cautela ao lidar com superiores. Eles provavelmente não estarão dispostos a aturar sua momentânea maré de auto- afirmação. Você terá também muita energia física, podendo trabalhar arduamente o dia inteiro. Se você souber utilizar essas energias com inteligência, será capaz de produzir muito mais que habitualmente.

Sol na casa 9 (Astrologia)
Sun in the 9th house: You enjoy reading more than anything else. Many 9th house sun do spend their life in another country from their birth country, but many more spend their life in the search for philosophical meaning, for a taste in their life. You could be a good teacher of whatever talent you posses, some of you will be in the academia, in law, or in a publishing house since those come naturally to you. In many cases you will choose to work less to, earn less, but have more free time for yourself and your vocations. Many of you value the simple things in life, and can get by on less income, with more hope and fun.
The soul is in a process of expansion. It is not interested in survival, in personal relationships, and in material positions any more. The interest lies in finding a broader sense of home, of culture, and transcendence.

Bom-dia, poema
OS AMANTES DESENCONTRADOS
«Deste um nome de incêndio a certas palavras.
Contigo eu não pisava o chão, era a amada voadora.
Feriste, feriste-me sem remédio. Como esquecer
que minavas meus próprios alicerces?
Que abanavas paredes, soltavas telhas
por onde entrava a tua inquietação?
Foste dentro de mim uma Primavera
tempestuosa. Por isso me deixaste,
e os dias correm, sem fronteiras.»
Recordo-me bem, eu soube nesse domingo
que era como a água em Azenhas do Mar;
que rebento; e destruo; e não arranjo poiso.
E que toda esta bruteza é um ciclone
centrado, quem diria, a Noroeste dos Açores.
De mim deve sobrar-te a espuma
que trazem as marés vivas no equinócio.
De mim deve ficar um vento,
a fúria do vento no teu cabelo.»

«Deste um nome de incêndio a certas palavras.
Contigo eu não pisava o chão, era a amada voadora.
Feriste, feriste-me sem remédio. Como esquecer
que minavas meus próprios alicerces?
Que abanavas paredes, soltavas telhas
por onde entrava a tua inquietação?
Foste dentro de mim uma Primavera
tempestuosa. Por isso me deixaste,
e os dias correm, sem fronteiras.»
Recordo-me bem, eu soube nesse domingo
que era como a água em Azenhas do Mar;
que rebento; e destruo; e não arranjo poiso.
E que toda esta bruteza é um ciclone
centrado, quem diria, a Noroeste dos Açores.
De mim deve sobrar-te a espuma
que trazem as marés vivas no equinócio.

Life update
Já tenho um emprego.
Os meus pés matam-me. Tenho de comprar calçado mais confortável.
Acho que emagreci.
Tenho de limpar a casa. Estou a lavar a roupa.
Ainda não fiz a revisão final ao meu "Zombies em Lisboa".
Ainda não formatei o livro "Elias, o Tolo" (falta de paciência) para o pôr na Smashwords (nem pus o "A Imortalidade" na Amazon).
Tenho de fazer uma data de coisas, não me apetece fazer nenhum.
Já não tenho a têvê há algum tempo - a porcaria das notícias irritam-me e a merdinha das séries repetem episódios não sei quantas vezes. Better to go without.
Claro que devia cortar o tempo gasto na net (claro, claro).
E mais?
Tá calor... São Pedro anda parvo.
Ah: comprei o passe: 33 euros. Não achei muito caro.
Tenho de ir fazer exames (análises médicas). Chatice. Tenho de marcar consulta.

A minha visão sobre a "Crise"
As oligarquias que detêm o poder querem transformar a Europa nos EUA que é para lixarem a população, tal como o fazem lá - um país onde, se tiveres o azar de ter cancro, tens de vender a tua casa para pagares o tratamento e vives numa tendinha (e é se queres, oh meu grande preguiçoso, vai trabalhar que tens cabedal para isso. É tudo fita, tudo fita).
As oligarquias, que inflacionaram o preço das casas, agora farão o mesmo com a Comida, a Água e a Luz. Qualquer diz é o AR.
E o povo, que é estúpido que nem uma porta, vai deixar que isto seja feito - até que a sua paciência rebente e as revoluções comecem a despoletar, aqui e além.
Portanto - seremos explorados até ao tutano até ao momento que percebermos não temos mais sangue para dar.
Esta é a minha opinião. Vou esperar - vou esperar, para ver como Plutão em Capricórnio e Urano em Carneiro se irão comportar.

Capa: para livro de Zombies!
O que acham desta capa? Apelativa? O que mudariam?
O livro ainda não está totalmente revisto (preciso de revê-lo de novo), e planeio enviá-lo a editoras tradicionais. Se não tiver resposta - publico-o em ebook pela Smashwords e 'tá a andar.
Por isso é que já ando a brincar com capas.

O que pensam desta?
Eu acho que a prefiro... mas ainda não decidi (se calhar ainda faço outras!).
Outras tentativas de capas!
Desta vez para Elias, o Tolo (ver se o coloco na Smashwords em Outubro).
Aqui ficam. Qual delas é a menos horrível? (Farei outras, é provável.)

Duas fotos minhas
... de quando eu era miúda.
Julgo que tinha 4 anos.
Estava com a minha avó. Ela tirava-me fotografias e enviava-as para os meus pais, na altura emigrados em França.

E se estes sacanas do novo Governo revertem a lei do Aborto?

Lá voltamos nós à Idade Média. Oh, dark, dark times.
In other news:
ou o novo ministro das finanças anda pelo meu blog (imitando o predecessor), ou é o antigo ou é simplesmente alguém desse gabinete que ainda lá trabalha.
Seja quem for: olá!

(Tirei-a do wikipedia).
[Edit: imagem - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:St._Uriel-_St_John’s_Church,_Boreham.jpg Penso que a posso utilizar.]
Seja como for, aqui fica. Foi a primeira que fiz e só para treinar. (Feita com o programa Paint.net).
Ainda estou a formatar o livro e não sei Se e Quando o coloco na Smashwords.
Anyway, deixem a vossa opinião. É uma capa apelativa? Ou nem por isso...?

Centro de Emprego
Fui ao centro de emprego. Tirei a senha. Uma miúda estava a conversar com o segurança e a todos que entravam dizia logo:
- É a segunda série. Ainda pode ir almoçar!
Eram praí 9h30 da manhã.
Pirei-me. Irra, odeio Secas!
Agora tento de novo para a semana. Vou e levo a tendinha, 'tou já a adivinhar... :(
Farta disto. Quero um emprego, porra!

Numerologia: 3
If you are in a 3 PERSONAL YEAR, September is a 3 PERSONAL MONTH for you:
You may tend to scatter your energy and be impulsive. It may be difficult to accomplish anything this month or to stay disciplined and on task. You will find yourself to be easily distracted. Unresolved emotions may rise to the surface and you may find yourself expressing them in sudden outbursts. Be careful not to be too flippant or sarcastic as somebody's feelings may get hurt. The good news is that it should turn out to be a fairly social month for you. Romance is on the agenda.
Focus on a creative project as that is the best direction to take this energy. Whether it is an artistic project or something having to do with writing, this is a good month to be creative.
Be careful with your money as you may regret expensive purchases by month's end.
Pay attention to your intuition and also to your dreams. Your dreams could be downright prophetic.
Most importantly, greet each day with your best smile and be cheerful as you could be downright inspirational this month.

Ano Pessoal: 3
3 Personal Year
Expansion, Successes, Blossoming
In a 3 year, you'll begin to see the fruits of your labor. The 3 year is a social year full of excitement and creativity. You may find yourself involved in a whirl of activities, social, business and romantic. Your enthusiasm is contagious this year, and others will be drawn to you by it. Successes seem to fall into your lap in every area of your life, and opportunities to expand your circles will abound. The biggest issue you may face in a 3 personal year is an overabundance of opportunities. Keeping your focus may be difficult when there is so much to choose from.
The 3 personal year many times can result in a person feeling as though they are having to deal with everyone else's problems, yet are feeling as though they have little time to focus on their own. It's important that the focus go toward the self first, and then if energy and time is left over to bring the attention to others.

An Active/Aggressive year
Keywords: Activity, Busy, Advancement, Nervous Energy, Sleepless
Nights, Impulsive Mistakes, Actions Regretted, Confusion, Schooling,
Technology.
Tarot Association:The Empress: Abundance, rewards, relating to nature,
connections to earth, outdoor activity, fertility.
News or opportunities that arrive completely out of the blue color this time period. Impulsive responses to situations are to be expected, but should be controlled to avoid mistakes.
This can be a year of achievement and success unless you squander all the good things you acquire during this year. Social success and popularity will grow now, and you will enjoy spending good times with special friends. Jupiter is the ruling planet of the 3 personal year, which expands good luck and good fortune. Friends can offer advice, good times and moral support when needed, and you can count on people in times of trouble. This is a great year to form new friendships and revel in the old ones. Long distance travel, the higher thought processes, philosophy and good times are accented as well in the 3 personal year.
This is an auspicious time to finish projects that you have been working on, and for making new friends. Make sure you put any new friends to the test before trusting them completely. Should you be a writer or speaker, use caution under this influence to prevent saying or writing things you are sure to regret at a later date. Although no time is good for being involved in a law suit, the 3 personal year does not support a favorable outcome to it. This is an excellent time for getting a promotion on the job or some kind of advancement is indicated.
The 3 personal year is a time to EXPRESS yourself, become the center of attention, have people notice you and your abilities, become more aware of your appearance and purchase a new wardrobe. This can be a very lucky time for you, so don't forget to play $1 on your favorite numbers. Since the 3 is such a fertile number, there can be a birth of a child at this time. If you can, mix business with pleasure to get the most out of your time spent with others. Self indulgences at this time will not only cost you if you over spend, but you can put weight on as well.
Be careful of what you sign, put in writing, or what you say to others now, and examine all documents carefully for content. If you have any questions about contracts or anything in writing, make sure they are clearly explained to your satisfaction to avoid potentially costly mistakes. Profits can come to you from something you write or by giving lectures, or perhaps you can even sell a play, script or an idea. This year is wonderful if you have something to sell or merchandise and a good year to sell merchandise you no longer need or have any value to you. It is also a time of achievement or failure, according to the effort that you apply to this fortunate year, or the lack of it.
It would drive you up a wall if you couldn't mingle with others, were confined to a very boring conventional routine, or have your creative ideas restrained. The down side here is expecting too much reward for too little work.
One danger of this time period is retreating into yourself, and finding that social situations are far too uncomfortable for you to handle. You may very well choose to keep your feelings hidden inside although there is plenty of warmth and friendliness to be found.
Since entertainment of any kind is also a side effect of this number, then you may find comfort in the silver screen and movies as well as night clubs and any other places that people gather in a group.
Positive attitudes will win the day now, so avoid excess worrying and unhappiness as well as people who may try to bring you down. Opportunities for love and romance are right, but they are to be considered flirtatious rather than the lasting kind, or they can leave you very UNDECIDED in which way to go.

The influence in this current year is one of sociability and the arts. It can be a lucky year if your efforts and financial resources are not scattered and your energies are focused on priority goals. During this year you must watch that you bring projects to completion before beginning something new. This is a great year for you to take a vacation, particularly one with an artistic focus, such as photography, painting, writing, or even visiting art galleries or attending plays. Popularity within large and small groups is highlighted, as is work in the public arena. (A good year for aspiring politicians!) It is also a year in which you may wish to try a new hairstyle or buy some new clothes, as romance and affection are highlighted during this cycle. Self expression is the keynote in both the written and spoken word. This can be good year for selling products, (including your writing), or services.

PERSONAL YEAR (3):
You can expect life to step up the pace of your activities. Last year during your (2) year, the forces of nature were at low ebb and you discovered that high achievement and successful forward motion seemed delayed and somewhat resistant at every turn... well, not this year.
The expanding and regenerative energies of the (3) will offer you more opportunity to be social, have more fun, express yourself in whatever medium you choose (writing, painting, speaking, crafts, parties, etc.) and just generally experience more personal freedom to accomplish.Ý
All of these new waves of hope and excitement are set to open for you if you've been able to shake the doldrums and clouds of doubt/disappointment experienced last year.Ý You have to be willing now to hold your head high and have the confidence/courage to move forward for renewal and rebirth.
Doors open during the year of the (3)... people make things happen for you as income and confidence increases. Be careful, however, not to over do it... the enthusiasm and optimism of the (3) can induce haste, so one must not act without consideration. Be moderate. There's always a tendency to take on too much responsibility, be extravagant and foolishly over zealous. In other words, don't scatter your energies, for your thoughts and desires will be running at full tilt and you could simply end up spinning your wheels.
There's a feeling of great relief felt during the (3) Personal Yearä you sense that life has finally recognized you and your abilities and is offering you a chance to be reborn. Experience these energies as a blessing and a gift, but don't take them for granted. They'll support you and uplift you throughout the year as long as you are positive, hopeful and willing to try new directions. However, if you enter in a depressed and self-pitying way, you'll likely miss the dynamic opportunities awaiting you. That would be very unfortunate since the energies of the (3) offer too much promise for success. To the (3), negative feelings and depression are dysfunctionalä the (3) is an energy of brilliance, hope and enthusiasm that absolutely refuses to accept less than 100% effort. It lives in the now and promises to be your mentor as long as you change your attitude and seek positive growth. The choice is yours.
Personal Year 3. . . .Social expansion & creative successes This is a number 3 personal year. This is a social, happy year, and it generally tends to exude bright and cheerful vibrations. This is a year when you will want to check up on old friends and broaden your social circle to include some new ones. Romance and love affairs may bloom. You are inclined to live life to its fullest now, even if you have to pay the consequences later on. You are likely to be more sociable and the bridle of responsibility will seem to be loosened a bit. You are inclined to scatter your energies and undertake too many things at the same time. You can safely take some time off to enjoy yourself, but resist the temptation to completely give in to having a good time; keep your goals in mind. A 3 personal year is a good time to expand personal creative talents, particularly those related to the arts and verbal skills. Recognition in this regard is likely this year. While this can be a happy year as far as personal expression and activities are concerned, it may be a disastrous year on the business scene. A generally frivolous attitude in that environment can cause rash decisions and impractical, unfinished schemes. This is not likely to be a very good year for your finances, and it is fortunate that the next year is designed to compensate these effects.

Jupiter Natal Retrograde
link: http://www.patrickarundell.com/Astrology/Retrograde-Planets/Jupiter/
Those who are born with a retrograde Jupiter may appear to others not to have accomplished much during their life, perhaps not possessing the outward signs of wealth that others have. However, this has much to do with the fact that individuals with Jupiter retrograde at birth are less interested in attaining such symbols. Their value system being more attuned to immeasurable achievements and it is for this reason that often it is said, Jupiter retrograde individuals struggle to attain the resources necessary for everyday existence. They may favour occupations or pursuits far from being lucrative, gaining rewards spiritually or philosophically instead.
However, by choosing such avenues these individuals are working positively through this Jupiter lesson. For those born with Jupiter retrograde are thought not to have ventured much in a past-life, content to remain as they were, not stretching their capabilities or using talents. Therefore, this life is concerned with expansion, enabling individual’s with this placement to travel widely and open their mind up to diverse cultural experiences. However, they must do this without completely abandoning restrictions and becoming reckless and overindulgent.

OSHO: Using Imagination to Change Negative to Positive
First thing in the morning, imagine yourself tremendously happy. Get out of bed in a very happy mood — radiant, bubbling, expectant — as if something perfect, of infinite value, is going to happen today. Get out of the bed in a very positive and hopeful mood, with the feeling that this day is not going to be an ordinary day — that something exceptional, extraordinary, is waiting for you; something is very close by. Try and remember it again and again for the whole day. Within seven days you will see that your whole pattern, your whole style, your whole vibration, has changed.
When you go to sleep in the night, just imagine that you are falling into divine hands...as if existence is supporting you, that you are in its lap, falling asleep. Just visualize it and fall asleep. The one thing to carry is that you should go on imagining and let sleep come, so that the imagination enters into sleep; they are overlapping.
Don’t imagine any negative thing, because if people who have an imaginative capacity imagine negative things, they start happening. If you think that you are going to get ill, you will get ill. If you think that somebody is going to be rude to you, he will be. Your very imagination will create the situation.
So if a negative idea comes, immediately change it to a positive thought. Say no to it. Drop it immediately; throw it away.
Within a week you will start feeling that you are becoming very happy — for no reason at all.

Acquainted with the Night
by Robert Frost
I have been one acquainted with the night.
I have walked out in rain—and back in rain.
I have outwalked the furthest city light.
I have looked down the saddest city lane.
I have passed by the watchman on his beat
And dropped my eyes, unwilling to explain.
I have stood still and stopped the sound of feet
When far away an interrupted cry
Came over houses from another street,
But not to call me back or say good-bye;
And further still at an unearthly height,
One luminary clock against the sky
Proclaimed the time was neither wrong nor right
I have been one acquainted with the night.
