Reply #76: I'm not emotional so much as introspective

My Neptune is in Scorpio in the eighth conjunct the north node, closely trine Chiron (which is conjunct Sun/Saturn/Asc and opposed Uran/Pluto) in Pisces, inconjunct Jupiter in Gemini at the IC. It's hard to sort out the Nept/Jup/Chiron influence because there's so much going on. But I think it partly has to do with stimulating our wounds around our ideals of justice, in order to heal them, on both a personal and macro level (as above/so below).

I'm interested in the way it's playing out in the country and world. Our ideals and self-concept as a country, and sense of community (Aquarius) have been incredibly damaged, and we are hopefully beginning to address that. It's incredibly painful (wounding) as a country to be forced to look at ourselves in a new light as more and more info comes out about the injustices perpetrated by our leaders. It will be difficult to prevent the desire for revenge from resulting in violence and judgment in a destructive sense. On a constructive note, there is more of a sense of common ground and cohesiveness among the populace (the masses/Aquarius; we're all in this together), regardless of politics.

Maybe the triple conjunction is reminding us of how we've been judged (or judgmental) on a personal level in the past in order to prevent us from becoming too self-righteousness. It's a very karmic time, and Obama is walking a very fine line. A lot more will come out at the next two Sat/Uranus oppositions. For now, the triple conjunction is helping me stay hopeful and idealistic despite the upheaval and transition.
