I spent this mars-jupiter conjunction with a friend (a writer and teacher) discussing his manuscript that he had asked me to review. Our conversation then veered toward the difficulties we face as writers (difficulties with being published, read or even selling one single book!) Wondering if it's even worth continuing on this path! I found myself becoming increasingly outraged and frustrated!

Sorry to hear this but yes this is Mars-Jupiter - thinking big and then trying to protect ourselves by either NOT sharing our ideas, thoughts publicly or OVERthinking things. What some writers experience as "fact" - not selling books for example, others experience as fallacy (This is all very GEMINI)...Interesting that today I have had numerous conversations around "assumptions" which prevent us from actually experiencing true freedom. I hope your friend does not limit himself or his potential with assumptions. Big hug!
