Husband wants me to go to the doc - I shall do that in a couple of days, if things don't improve. Excedrin Extra is keeping the painfulness to a minimum today, but supposed to take no more than 2 in 24 hours.<br /><br />Nice time to have a b'day - the Fall.<br />It'll be near the cusp for you. One of husband's grandsons has a birthday 22nd. 22nd features several times in his family - his is 22 March, a son 22 August, one I can't remember too. <br />Different months same number. :-)Twilighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138621610593773784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-87936837218332502792014-10-12T15:05:16.430-05:002014-10-12T15:05:16.430-05:00Twilight ~ One end down, one to go.

Back in the 1990s a metal decoration on a sandal burned the top of my foot. It caused a deep ulcer which was very hard to heal due, I discovered, to a faulty vein in the area. I have to bind my leg from knee to toe with compression bandage on top of a dressing.<br /><br />It's sore and I can't bear footwear yet. Suddenly for no apparent reason the skin on top of my foot started playing up again about a week or so ago. Not wounded as deeply as before. It feels more like a burn in several places. I'll be off to the doc if no improvement this week. I'm wary of that though. Last time the nurses initially made it worse (that was back in the UK though).<br /><br />Migraine much improved today - thank goodness.<br /><br />Thanks mike - that is probably near to my problem, but not dermatitis - it's too ultra skin in that particular area.<br /><br />Glad to hear the wee Yorkie is back home safely. Maybe you'll meet him again when out and about - hopefully on a lead this time.<br /><br />Happy Birthday to LB from me too - whenever it comes up. :-)Twilighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138621610593773784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-77373639975771015622014-10-11T20:59:33.690-05:002014-10-11T20:59:33.690-05:00mike ~ Thanks for the good wishes, but I'm han...mike ~ Thanks for the good wishes, but I'm hanging onto my youth for a while longer. <br /><br />Funny about your little friend trying to shower with you! He must have strong water influences in his chart - maybe something significant conjunct one of your 6th house (house of small pets) Scorpio placements, which would help explain him showing up in your life. Lucky for him.LBnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-29760625111960636912014-10-11T19:42:27.042-05:002014-10-11T19:42:27.042-05:00The puppy, Maxwell, has been reunited with his hum...The puppy, Maxwell, has been reunited with his humans. He's 8 months old, so he tested his wander lust instincts, but shame on his humans for putting him outside to do business unattended. No collar or tag on him, either. I had him for six hours and was beginning to plot his life's course when they came for him...LOL. I had a great deal of trouble doing anything with him around...he even wanted in the shower with me and I had to keep pushing him out.<br /><br />LB, I had no idea reiki could be performed at a distance. I just did a search and was surprised at the hits. Happy birthday (whenever it is), LB!<br /><br />Sonny, I hope the blues have turned into calm. The astrology of late has been intense for many.<br /><br />Twilight, sorry to know that familiar ailments are visiting you...better the ones you know than the ones you don't know. Magnesium is known to help alleviate migraines. Don't know if you happen to have any on hand. If you have epsom salts around, it is magnesium sulfate...one teaspoon is an adult magnesium daily requirement...take a half teaspoon in water twice a day.<br /><br />I have recurrent nummular dermatitis on my legs, which has an unknown etiology, is non-contagious, and not much is available prescription-wise. It's absolutely horrid when I have it and it can have a duration of several years. I found that curcumin (turmeric extract) works wonders and I've been able to almost eliminate it.<br /><br />Take a gander at these photos:<br />https://images.search.yahoo.com/search/images;_ylt=A0LEVxDfyDlU4EkACuVXNyoA;_ylu=X3oDMTB0dmM3ajNiBHNlYwNzYwRjb2xvA2JmMQR2dGlkA1NNRTY5N18x?_adv_prop=image&fr=moz35&va=foot+nummular+dermatitismike (again)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-36140047340330801272014-10-11T18:42:47.950-05:002014-10-11T18:42:47.950-05:00Adding how if I was there I'd offer you Reiki....Adding how if I was there I'd offer you Reiki. <br /><br />My husband (whose 12th house Mars in Pisces is opposite his 6th house Virgo Moon) frequently has foot issues and *loves* it when I lay my hands on his feet.<br /><br />If you're interested (and open-minded), I could try sending you distant Reiki. Don't know if it'll help but it couldn't hurt.:) <br /><br />Except for my husband, I haven't used it much this way, but if you're game so am I.

Hope you feel better very soon, much sooner than last time, in the case of your foot.<br /><br />Aubrey does look like a Gemini, also I think his art has an intellectual feel, or maybe that's just the way it comes across to me.:)LBnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-91594366559770946162014-10-11T17:01:37.706-05:002014-10-11T17:01:37.706-05:00LB ~

Atmospheric pressure changes here, and Ragweed pollen, have been giving me migraine-ish headaches. That's improved somewhat today, thank goodness probably via storms last night. Also I'm dealing with aftermath of (I suppose, though not certain) recent eclipses, squares to natal planets etc. For me this manifests as recurrence of a painful left foot problem I had back in the 1990s. Hoping it'll heal quicker than 2 years this time! At least I know what to do about it now.<br />Anyway, it's not deadly serious, just a bit painful to walk and footwear irritates, so have been "shut-in" for days.<br /><br />Re Aubrey Beardsley He looked like Gemini too, I think. I've always admired his work, for its high quality rather than for any "eroticism". I first came across it in our local library (which I used to haunt) when I was a teenager. They had some old copies of The Yellow Book containing some of his pieces.<br /><br />http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Yellow_Book<br /><br />Twilighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14138621610593773784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16659850.post-28461179787867811042014-10-11T16:05:26.453-05:002014-10-11T16:05:26.453-05:00Twilight ~ Enjoy your break this weekend.

Don't know how you manage to produce so much on such a consistent basis! <br /><br />I think you're right about Aubrey's Mars-Uranus conjunction.:0 Before I even looked at his chart I figured he must have something significant in Gemini, which he does, the North Node. <br /><br />Ruler of his NN, Mercury, is placed in the 8th, conjunct Venus and square the Nodes. The outlet for the T-Square energy would've been his 2nd house, ruled by Pisces - which would be good for artistic expression.<br /><br />mike ~ Hope you'll keep us posted about your new furry friend.:) Good luck finding his family.<br /><br />Sonny ~ Glad you're feeling better. Maybe the Eclipse stirred things up.

So many artists and authors from that era sacrificed their careers and livelihood to express themselves...not to mention they were thought to be complete perverts. I'm not sure our more modern era ever completely left the Victorian era...the 1950s and 1960s had many similarities.<br /><br />No time for a lengthy comment today...whew! Found a tiny Yorkshire terrier puppy wondering the busy street this morning. Well groomed, playful, cute as can be. I called the "lost pet hotline" two hours ago, but no responders. Hmmmm. He's a bit of a handful, though...quite active.mikenoreply@blogger.com
