Gone Fishing

I've followed a blog for more than a year that's kept by Painter named Karen Winters. The link is at www.karensblog.com. Karen paints every day and shares her work and her progress and her insights which are always amazing. Today's entry is extremely insightful about painting.

I used to paint a great deal and used to tell people that painting is probably more like fishing than any other activity because you just have to go out and do it and sometimes you catch a little fish, sometimes you don't catch anything, and sometimes you land the big barracuda. I would like to quote the whole entry but don't know how that works with copyright. So please check out today's entry.

Fishing and Painting both are ruled at least in part by Neptune. Karen compares how both the best times to fish and the best times to paint are at dawn and at twilight, the moments right before the point where the Sun Rises and Sets. These moments are indicated by the 6th and 12th houses of the chart. 6th house is ruled by Virgo and 12th house is ruled by Pisces and is Neptune's house. Karen also says that you must quit work on a painting when you think that it is 70 or 80 percent finished. This is also indicates a Neptunian influence, as well as a Mutable sign influence overall, because these are the signs that come right before the angles in a chart. They indicate endings. The Angles indicates the Cardinal Signs. The Ascendant in a chart is indicated by 6am and the Descendant is indicated by 6pm for the Sign which the Sun is in. (This is adjusted for latitudes and longitudes). If you are born during the sign of Taurus at 6am Greenwich Time, you will be born when the Sun is on the Ascendant and so will be a Double Taurus. If you are born under the Sign of Pisces at 6am, well, then, you'd better learn how to cast a fly and load a brush because you'll be a Double Pisces. And there's no escaping that unless you're my cousin who's a Double Pisces and ended up a Dentist. (But he spends all his vacations sailing his boat - Neptune).
