Madam Lichtenstein's Cosmic World

Unusual Night Time Phenomena

I am not sure I know what is causing this but I wanted to share this email from a reader with you. If you have any explanations for why this might be occuring, please send them on to me.

Dear Madam Lichtenstein,

I write to you to ask if you can help me explain what has been occuring for the past three nights in my bedroom. my husband and I have a queen size bed. On his side he keeps an alarm clock, his cell phone (sometimes turned off at night. Sometimes not.) and the television remotes. On my side I have my cell phone (always turned off at night), my ipod with the headset wired wrapped around it so it cannot be easily turned on and the remote for the overhead fan which is not in use at this time of year.

At around 3am on March 16 I woke to the sound of beeping chimes going like beep beep - beep beep. I thought it was my husbands cell phone recording a message since the sound came from his side of the bed. I opened my eyes at the sound and saw my ipod light go on like someone pressed the pad and then 2-3 seconds later, go off.We checked his cell phone later that morning and there was no message recorded and no call coming through at that time.

The next night -March 10 - at 4am (it was daylight savings time and we pushed the clocks an hour ahead so it was essentially the same time as the previous night) the exact same thing occured. This time I woke my husband and while he did not hear the chimes/beeps, he woke in time to see the ipod light go on and off.In the morning he noted that his cell phone was turned completely off that night so it did not come from his cell phone.

And now last night March 11 at 4am, I was awake waiting to see what would happen. Again, I heard the four beeps from the far side of my husbands side of the bed and then the ipod light went on and then off on my side of the bed.

I can't explain this at all! What do you think is happening? We lost a very dear friend last year at this time so I wonder if these events are in any way connected?

Thank you for any insights that you can send.

 

 

 

Ask Madam Lichtenstein - What is Next After Quitting a Job?

I often get questions sent to me from readers.Today I reach into my mailbox for a good Q&A. Enjoy! And send some of your own questions to the blog. Who knows what can happen?

 

Question -I was terribly unhappy at my job so I quit after six years of working there. Could you please tell me if a new job is in the near or far future for me? Born 8/30/64, 10:15pm, Washington, DC. Thank you!

Madam Lichtenstein Responds: You have Sun in Virgo, Mercury in Virgo and Mars in Cancer. You are generally rather careful and precise and have a very clear, matter of fact way of communicating. Ah, but with that emotional Mars in Cancer, I can see how you would react with your heart and not with your practical Virgo head! Possibly Taurus rising which places Aquarius on the top of your chart. Neptune is currently in your career sector so it is a good time to put your creativity and intuition to work to find the next best job for you. But also be careful - Neptunewill cause some naive illusions there as well so wait until no nonsense Mars opposes Neptune in May when all deceptions are uncovered and shattered. In the meantime, get cracking on a new job search and read the fine print and ask pointed questions and listen for the answers!

Numerologist Response to Astrology-Based Career Advice

Yesterday I posted a question from someone asking about career advice. My answer was based on astrology. Guest numerologist blogger Seriita Montiel has a response from a numerology viewpoint:

Here is a link to the original post.

 To Newark, NJ:

 

As a Numerologist, I agree with Madam Lichtenstein! You were born to be in the spotlight, and this is a wonderful year to seek opportunities for “voice-over talent.” As Madam Lichtenstein cautioned, “be sure to read the fine print!” You’re restless, bored, and impatient for change; it’s coming so I hope you’re ready. The Universe is asking that you stand on your own two feet, strike out on your own and not allow others to dictate how and what you should do with your life. Generally speaking, May, October, and December are promising, especially May. In 4 – 5 years, I see a world of opportunity opening up for you to use your creative expression. And if single, on the hunt, there may even be a love interest coming your way very soon! For a second time, be sure to read the fine print and if someone new comes into your life, do a thorough background check, and once you get this new opportunity remember to be generous to those in need!

 

If you are considering moving, this is definitely a great year to do so! If relocating is indeed in your plans, take advantage of Madam Lichtenstein’s expertise, she’s eagerly waiting for you to send your list of cities.

 

Stay Focused On The Good!

Question - I've studied astrology on my own for several years, but right now, I need an objective opinion. My company recently had layoffs, and although I'm still here as a writer, I'm miserable in the corporate world. Is this a good time to strike out on my own as a voice-over talent, which I did in a different city? Should I think about moving to another city? Thanks so much 3/8/62 9:15 a.m. Newark, NJ

 

Madam Lichtenstein's Answer: You have sun in Pisces, moon in Aries, mercury in Aquarius venus in Pisces and mars in Aquarius. Possibly Taurus rising which places Aquarius in the cusp of your 10th house of career.

Generally you are very creative and intuitive. You are out front in your emotions and can be very romantic. When you take action it is from a unique perspective and have a need to reach and help many people at once. With Aquarius on the top of your chart you may be a bit of a crusader and should gravitate to "electronics" such as television and radio. So voice overs really fall under that umbrella quite nicely.

As mars, the planet of action squares the top of your chart in April 2010, it would be a great time to research carefully any next steps to be sure that they adon't have any hidden obstacles. So start some exploring. And remember that Neptune is in your 10th house now - planet of illusions and delusions. It may sound great but be sure to read the fine print! Timing is everything!

So in short - your voice over idea will mesh nicely with your chart. Write to me with some cities in mind and we can do a relocation chart to see which ones may be the best for you.

Ask Madam Lichtenstein - Compatibility Question

I often get questions sent to me from readers.Today I reach into my mailbox for a good Q&A. Enjoy! And send some of your own questions to the blog. Who knows what can happen?

 

 

Question: When "Compatible" Doesn't Play Out that Way:

I have a question about a dating situation that never got out of the gate -- if you have some insights I would love to hear them! Last November, I met a great guy with whom things initially seemed to click. Nonetheless, things fell apart after a few dates and I was left scratching my head, but I moved along. Some weeks later when it was pretty much out of my system, an astrologer told me that we were intensely compatible: We both have Mars in Taurus We both have Venus in Leo He's a Leo sun and I have Leo rising He has Cancer rising; I have Capricorn moon. The leftovers: I have a Gemini sun; he has a Scorpio moon.

She (the astrologer) was very enthusiastic and encouraged me to try and contact him again in Feburary. I did, and the message was clear: Thanks, but No Chemistry. Any thoughts on how there can be so much astrological "chemistry" and yet things still don't gel? Any suggestions about what I should (or should not!) do at this point? My info: June 19, 1962 8:37AM Okinawa, Japan (Leo rising) His info: August 21, 1958 2:00AM Toledo, Ohio Thanks!

 

Madam Lichtenstein responds:

Thank you for the astrological information and the great question. There is astrological compatibility and that je ne sais quois, indefinable physical chemistry that may or may not play itself out of the chart.

However, the thing that struck me from both of your charts are those Venuses in Leo. Venus in Leo just loooves to be loved and must be the center of attention. How can you get two people together who each want to be adored even more than they want to do the adoring? Tough to do. Also both charts have stubborn slow moving Mars in Taurus – it takes a bit to get them to move on anything. So we have a bit of a standoff here on a couple of levels.

You both have secretive, but very compatible moons – yours in Capricorn and his in Scorpio. You may appear to be emotionally distant but he understands that because he can be emotionally secretive. So here both of you are, appearing to be cool and distant emotionally (a façade for both of you btw) and each requiring a great deal of attention and slow to move to take action. Astrological chemistry? Perhaps, but it would take work and a great deal of understanding. My opinion.
