pdw,
I hope you don't mind a little 'bearing' here...
Check out Pierre Curie's chart, his Moon in 7th ruling 5th...you have always been a first responder in my book...and a very special 'creative mid-wife' was it? always, with helpful, great terms applied with tender sympathies.
Curie's understanding of incredible women, I think is reflected deeply with his Moon 7th, and in what he carefully wrote about our species. He saw how Marie's pride and timidity protected her. How rare. He understood exquistely the UNEQUAL nature to the sexes..."Thus, when we, driven by some mystic love, wish to enter upon some anti-natural path, when we give all our thoughts to some work which estranges us from the humanity nearest us, we have to struggle against women." [Marie Curie, A Biography, Eve Curie, p. 120]
Their first meeting was instant sympathy. Gravity and careless Grace. An attraction of double curiosity. When I think of 'piezoelectricity' I smile. My wedding day, is supposedly, "Pi Approximation Day." ??
Victor Hugo: "To stun with clatter a mind that wishes to think."
You have the knack of a woman with great clarity, to speak the anti-thought that is necesssary for reality, pdw. You have always shown that to me. Pierre called his way, "following her thoughts." With Heart. "He felt himself drawn toward Marie by an impulse of love and at the same time by the highest necessity." [Eve, p. 134]
pdw, I guess this post could apply to the thread on more of my thoughts to your reply, of a Peregrine Moon. As I'm sure, Noel will move if he deems necessary.
Thank you for who you are!*
