---------------------------------------------------
""Onward and upward" should be the motto of this completely idealistic and experimental character. Aquarius the individualist married to the aggressive and charming Rat character affords us a being of immense personal magnetism and derring-do. On the ONE hand, the Aquarian born Rat seeks to accumulate material possessions. On the OTHER hand, this person could care less about tangibles. She's a bohemian with a bourgeois streak. A hippie sophisticate. She wants to be free and unencumbered. But she cannot stand to be alone. She wants to ride a black stallion on the beach in the wind, but she's not mad about horses. A contradictory nature full of excellent intentions causes the Aquarius/Rat to somersault through life, always talking, rarely listening.
RatAquarians want to be different. They have vision and are tolerant. Rats have lots of personal appeal and long to wield power. Of course, in this duo, the Rat is neutralized by the altruistic Aquarian, who tells her to get her mitts off the power switch until such time as man will love man and no wars will be fought. The effect is startling. Real force emanates from within this person. Watch her try to take over the reins in a given situation. She can strike a deal, even a slightly shady deal. Then, suddenly out of nowhere, she may back down. Under the influence of Aquarius, the Rat's cupidity deflates. Good-bye, trickery. Hello, freedom and love.
As the Aquarius/Rat thinks she wants to see around corners toward a better world, she will frequently become involved in spiritual searches for truth and equilibrium. The Aquarian is first a thinker. The Rat, too, is cerebral. Both signs are a bit neurotic. So, rather than looking for stability on traveled paths, they become easily attracted by the cosmic, the extrasensory and supernatural methods of mind control. Aquarius/Rats are forever taking courses in ESP, est, Hatha, Mudra and Zen. They want to depart from the humdrum bourgeois living inside them. They long to find peace through spiritual enlightenment.
No matter the degree of clear thinking attained by this character, she is nonetheless always a Rat. Rats must cleave to the middle-class life. Rats are acquisitive and driven by a thirst for power. Aquarius may force the Rat to a clear mountain stream but she cannot make her drink. This essential disagreement causes further loss of security for our native. She makes rash moves and grows moody and distant. Emotions are not her favorite province, so how can she say she's sorry? How can she adapt to the workaday world with its stringent and inhuman demands? Why is life so stultifyingly boring?
Well, as this offbeat subject will be the first to tell you, "The answer is blowing in the wind." Trouble is, people never live up to the Aquarius/Rat's high standards. She is often disappointed by the failure of group efforts and hurt by the selfishness of intimates. Yet she watches even herself fall short of the mark. Then she is really desolate and confused. Where did she go wrong?
Although "application of derriere to seat of chair" is one of my stock bits of advice, I dare advance it here more particularly. Aquarius/Rats must learn to slow down, to feel their way instead of trying to "think" their way, to sit still long enough for the lead to set between those ears. They mustn't dabble in mind-altering substances or freaky movements unless there is a concrete and earthbound reason to do so. Sailing off into space without a seatbelt is a very dangerous business."

Randomness.

Accept the pain, cherish the joys, resolve the regrets, then can come the best of benedictions:
"If I had my life to live over, I'd do it all the same." --Joan McIntosh
--If you can't understand my Words,
You'll never understand my
...Silence.--
"I am not now, what I was yesterday.
I am not now, what I shall be tomorrow.
So, you do yourself an injustice
to judge me by yesterday,
when I have moved on."
-- "The Masta" - Freddie Foxxx
"I am the desire that swells
deep inside your heart.
I am the passion that burns
within the tempest of your Love.
I am the fantasy of your mind,
in every motion thereof.
I am your embrace,
your kiss so sweet.
And from the pinnacle of this ecstacy,
I am the light that illuminates
and encompasses your soul."
— Cynthia

"When I Close My Eyes, I Can See Your Face;
When I Lick My Lips, I Can Taste Your Smile;
When I See Your Name, My Heart Starts To Race;
If I Can't Read Your Thoughts, Then I Feel Empty."
— Janet Jackson, "Empty"

"When we walk to the edge of all the light we have
and take the step into the darkness of the unknown,
we must believe that one of two things will happen.
There will be something solid for us to stand on
or we will be taught to fly."
-Patrick Overton
"Perfection is finally attained
not when there is no longer anything to add
but when there is no longer anything to take away,
when a body has been stripped down to its nakedness."
-Antoine de Saint-Exupery
"To be a person of truth,
be swayed neither by approval nor disapproval.
Work at not needing approval from anyone
and you will be free to be who you really are."
-Rebbe Nachman of Breslov
"How empty of me, to be so open with you."
- Janet Jackson
"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious.
It is the source of all true art and all science.
He to whom this emotion is a stranger,
who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe,
is as good as dead: his eyes are closed."
-Albert Einstein
"Real Love is not based on attachment, but on altruism."
-His Holiness the Dalai Lama
"The more I think about it, the more I realize
there is nothing more artistic than to Love others."
-Vincent Van Gogh
"Life is a sleep, Love is its dream;
And you have Lived if you've Loved"
"Happiness comes from the capacity to feel deeply,
to enjoy simply, to think freely, to risk life, to be needed."
-Storm Jameson
"Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile,
a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment,
or the smallest act of caring,
all of which have the potential to turn a life around."
–Leo Buscaglia
"Destiny is no matter of chance. It is a matter of choice.
It is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved."
-William Jennings Bryan
"Life isn't about finding yourself, Life is about creating yourself."
-Anonymous
"Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets.
So Love the people who treat you right
Forget about the ones who don't
and believe that everything happens for a reason.
If you get a chance, take it.
If it changes your life, let it.
Nobody said it would be easy,
they just promised it would be worth it."
-Anonymous
"SPIRIT is Life, MIND is the builder,
and PHYSICAL is the result"
Fade Away... remember, forgive, let go...
