Lessons to learn? - Discussions, questions

astral_travel Hi Inne,

I was looking at your chart,
Can you tell me what you do for a living ?
And, what is your relation to money ?

Thanks
Astral

Inne » astral_travel I work as a mediator, in government.
My relation to money is pretty neutral. Not a penny pincher but not a big spender either. Though since I have been single and moved out money is more of an issue than it used to be.

astral_travel » Inne In what way is it an issue ?

Inne » astral_travel Well, that life is far more expensive right now, so I had to make some adjustments in order to be financially okay. But still, I really like my job and I have a great team (as a moon in 6th house I am sensitive to nice work environment) but this is the first time in my life I considered to start working in the private sector to make more money but I am not going to do that. For me the content of the job remains more important than making more money.

astral_travel » Inne What do you like about your job ?
And, what have you considered to do in the private sector ?

Edit:

I ask so we can have common ground

Btw, Inne, are you condemning manipulation ? What is that subject of manipulation about ?

Just a feeling

Inne » astral_travel I don’t think that the job content is making me want to change, just that I could earn more in the private sector. What I like about my job is that I kind of provide a social service, that I have nice co-workers, that I have a chance to work in an interesting field (labour market subjects),...I love my job, and not planning to change jobs. Has been too much changes already.

Interesting last question, I strongly condemn manipulation. But in general, not specifically now. as a Plutonian person ( with 3 oppositions) I always try to beware aware of the fact that I might be projecting things myself.
And you have to keep the “power” with yourself, not projecting or giving it away. But I don´t consider myself suspicious towards other people, people say I come across as "open" person.

The person I was talking about, I met him through work. I still have weekly encounters with him because of work.
I have a feeling indeed for the first time I could be manipulated in some way, by him. But maybe manipulation is a too strong word.

Instead on focusing on him, I wanted to see what my own lessons were, because I believe these kind of intense people, you meet them for a reason.

astral_travel » Inne Okay,
Let me tell you something about manipulation. You need two (people) for tango. What I mean is that as anger can be active or passive, so can manipulation. It´s just a matter of who takes what rule. Yes, you got the point, but not totally (I refer to the point you made about projecting), I gotta say something about that also, - you don´t have to ´keep´ anything, what you are projecting is unsolved issues, so what you wanna do is self-observation or more correctly self-reflection, and through that - understand what motifs you have repeating itselfs, and come to a solution. Once you are unified with yourself - you no longer have to hide anything, and matters of ´power´ are being replaced by a sincere curiosity to understand and solve the commonality you have with people. We´re all going through the same thing.

Inne » astral_travel Just curious, what in the chart made you think of manipulation?

astral_travel » Inne Mars in scorpio.

But I can sense people.
