Star Struck Style

It’s funny that I came across this post while I was trying to see how Mercury’s ingress into my second house tomorrow morning might affect me. I just pulled out the different leather jacket that I purchased last year when I went to try on the jacket in the photo. I was in the middle of washing and putting away much of my spring and summer outerwear, and replacing it with my fall and winter clothes.

Anyway, being “satisfied with what I already have” needs to be a theme for me for the rest of the year. I keep buying clothes for the lifestyle that I wish I had (I just purchased a Zegna polo shirt yesterday after claiming that I was not going to shop anymore). Maybe I can also attempt to live that lifestyle with the sun in my first house and Mercury in my second house. The change in weather in this part of the world affords me some freedom to get out and about in many of the beautiful things I have.

Pulling a lot of those things out from storage essentially made me take inventory of what I’ve got. I do that during second-house transits. I weigh myself more often because my “worth” becomes something I want to quantify while planets move through this part of my chart. I also pay more attention to my debt load. That’s a good thing. In fact, I just calculated that I didn’t come home from Las Vegas in much worse shape than before my vacation.

I’m going to keep doing these various inventories for the rest of the year. Mercury moves into my third house in about three weeks, but it returns to my second house again in the first week of December. It reenters my third house a couple of days before the new year. During this time, I’m also going to have Mars in my tenth house. With both these planets transiting houses associated with the earth signs and the notion of “material goods,” perhaps I continue on this path of appreciating what I already have. Saturn’s station atop my natal Saturn should also help me to adopt the right frame of mind at this time. I only need to worry about the time after Christmas when everything goes on sale. That’s when I won’t have the support of the aforementioned planets.

But I’m not going to allow myself to worry about that right now. I’ve got a couple of months to build up my worth before I exit this current cycle. That’s the plan and I’m sticking to it . . .
