He was generous with his hot water though, straight from the teakettle, but then again Saturn tends to be.  \u201cHave a cookie or two\u201d, he wheezed, as he passed me a half empty bag of store brand shortbread.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s OK,\u201d I protested remembering I received Saturn in Virgo\u2019s homemade rice flour carob chip no sugar added cookies in better humor.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOh, well, then. More for me.\u201d Saturn in Libra smiled.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI must say, that pink trench coat is lovely, but don\u2019t you find it a little warm in the house? I say.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Oh, no, dear. With the price of oil, I never keep the heat up past 60. You like it?\u201d Saturn smiled. \u201cI did manage to get a very good price for it at the Goodwill.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I shivered; realizing the chill I felt was not just from his lackluster hospitality.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDarn that Pluto in Capricorn,\u201d I say with sympathy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPluto!\u201d snorts Saturn. \u201cHe wraps himself up in the sign that I rule, and he acts like he trying to do the best for all of us by transforming the established world order.\u201d Saturn bangs his fist on the table. \u201cI won\u2019t have it!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAh, so that\u2019s what the conflict is about!\u201d I blurted.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPardon? \u201c Saturn in Libra says scrunching up his eyes under his bushy eyebrows.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe square between you and Pluto going on right now.\u201d I say.<\/p>\n<p>His fist hit the table again, making the teacups jump. \u201cDarn right, Missy! You don\u2019t go around shuffling things just because you can. There is a reason for the way things are. Tradition. Order. Its how the world works. It that Pluto things he can pull one over on me, he\u2019s got another thing coming.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He leans over the table conspiratorially. \u201cAnd I\u2019ve got the Moon in Cancer helping me on the eclipse on the 31st. She\u2019s none to happy with how Pluto been shaking things up on the home front, making it impossible for people to keep their homes. He\u2019s going to get what for, I tell you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHmmn,\u201d I say. \u201cThanks for the head up. I\u2019ve got to run off now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut you just got here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYeah, but you remind me I have something very important to do.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, come back soon,\u201d  Saturn in Libra hoarsely as he shows me the door.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWill do,\u201d I promise as I run off to the pharmacy to refill my Xanax prescription.
