Quote of the Day – May 7 2012

“The basic difference between an ordinary man and a warrior is that a warrior takes everything as a challenge while an ordinary man takes everything as a blessing or a curse.”
― Carlos Castaneda

“You’re nuts!” She told me. “Totally strange, I never know what’s gonna come out of you”.
“I’m a Libra”, I replied “The most balanced sign.”
She just shook her head. In reality I misstated the truth. Well, besides the fact that the Sun being in Libra when I was born is just one of many influences in my chart. Libras aren’t the most balance sign but the ones who strive for balance the most. Sometimes I think it comes naturally. When things seem to be going too well in any one aspect of my life, I tend to find a way consciously or unconsciously to upset it in another. Note I said consciously not intentionally. I tend to have an intense curiosity about different viewpoints and have gone out of my way to understand different lifestyles by experiencing them from the inside. In my youth, this led to experimentation with religious cults, substances (tho oddly enough no drug ever attracted me enough to cause addiction tho a few I had to decide to stop), economic status and just about everything else I could try. Most of these ended, I wouldn’t say badly but definitively.
Blessings, G

    1. I have been learning and communing with the warrior in myself. The latest application of that seems to be finding the courage to write with the same honesty and depth of expression that you use 🙂

  1. Did you ever consider the fact that Libra is the only sign that is not human or a hybrid between human and beast, but an OBJECT!?
    I have, hehe.. The only thing I could come up with in the end was: “Well, probably someone with the Sun in Libra needs another person to fully express him/herself..?”
    What do YOU think..?
    I’m a Gemini myself.

    1. Well of two minds, i have never managed in my adult life to stay single for long and yet i don’t know that it is necessary to have one person as much as others to express myself with. Expecting one person to handle it all seems to be handing over way too much responsibility on someone’s shoulder. Thanks for commenting

  2. Haha… Well, I never said that ONE person should handle it all, mind you! But since Libra people is the sign of two-person-relationships, while Aquarius is more the group type, I was just thinking that your inividuality might express itself best through such communications..?
    As I said, I’m a Gemini myself, but I found that since almost the entire first house in my chart is occupying the sign of Libra (though my asc is in late Virgo), I act better in dialogue situations then in groups. I want to focus at one person at the time, if possible.
