Justice
My husband left me 4 years and keeps putting off the Divorce, although he had
taken everything and is living with another woman. He stalked me and really
put me through paces.
His birthday is 12/08/53
My birthday is 07/25/48
My question is this: Will I finally receive some justice? We are supposed to
meet with a Judge in conference on Monday, March 22. I have made plans to
move and go back to school, but I need a settlement first. Thank you for your
time.
Sol is in Aries March 22. A good day for a fight. It may be metaphorically bloody, but I know that it will satisfy both of you.
Your husband's chart doesn't give me any whiplash, so the day should pass without anything more remarkable than the trauma and stress of being in court. It's interesting that Pluto had been conjuncting his Venus in the time period you mention. It sounds as if he has been having a very difficult time dealing with the energy involved. Pluto will be conjuncting his Sun...so for whatever it's worth, expect him to be VERY busy with the newer and more potent onslaught for a few years to come. Unless he begins to heal...expect that things could be very unpleasant.
Your chart indicates that Mercury will be approximately conjuncting your Pisces Moon. Here's where things could be very interesting. Mercury is Retrograde for a few more weeks, so the lawyers could really get things screwed up. It's also not advisable to sign any type of contract during a Retrograde period. (There are all sorts of do's and don'ts concerning Retrograde Mercury. I don't particularly believe the horror stories, but I did make the mistake of ordering some software during the last Merc. Retrograde period. I won't do that again.)
My question to you is "What is Justice?" I would think about this very, very carefully. Then make a point of writing it all down for yourself. Reread it the next day, and the next. Keep revising it until you are quite sure that you know what would constitute justice for you in this case. Be ABSOLUTELY specific. Don't just say things like you want him to suffer as much as you did. Only then will you know if you got what you wanted. Expect some disappointment. Judges and the legal system are NOT, repeat NOT in the business of dispensing justice. Their business is to try cases and get them RESOLVED. In terms of the judicial system, your divorce is in their IN basket. They want it in their OUT basket ASAP.
I have my own, personal take on the concept of Justice, which I will not bore you with. Just be careful with the karmic consequences of Rage, Revenge and Resentment.
