Sorry to hear of your troubles Leslee, when my mom...

Sorry to hear of your troubles Leslee, when my mom's time came my relatives shocked even me, though I had some inkling of what was to come. Several, seeing her decline sought to make take advantage of it. While I had been trying to look after her myself, I pleaded for help to no avail. Some of them would come swooping in for awhile doing a couple things to make themselves look good, but were no real help. One of my second cousins did finally show some concern, but most everyone else just pandered to see what they could get out of it. After seeing the depth of their depravity I decided I have no family, and have been living that way since. I haven't spoken to or tried to contact any of them and I won't. For me the death of my mother broke any remaining illusions I had about them, I had thought when the chips were really down it might change things, but it didn't. Knowing that, I go my way unencumbered by any feelings of loyalty to try to pretend I like or trust them.It's kind of liberating in a way. Well that's the short story. hope yours is happier, I am making the best I can of mine.
On another note, though nobody bothered to tell me for a couple days when my mom died in the nursing home, she did make contact with the traditional spirit rapping and stuff though i was to upset by other developments to notice at first. It all became clear when I went to her private viewing and saw her standing next to the casket. We had a brief talk before she left with one of her old friends who had passed on a while ago. She still shows up every now and again, mostly in dreams. I suppose I should tell you I have been a reader for years and at some point realized I was a medium when I told people what the person behind their left shoulder was saying and someone finally informed me that person was dead! Then asking a bit I guess I had been doing it awhile. (They just look like normal people after all, nothing like the sixth sense thank goodness! lol!)
What I'm trying to say is, I'm quite convinced "life" goes on and after speaking with other women who have lost a mother, I am saying you can maintain a relationship even though not physical, even if you are not a medium. Your mom is your closest relative, I guess that's why most people report visits after death from their mothers more than any other relative. I hope this is some comfort to you.
My condolences.

Thank you, proserpine. I've noticed that those who have been through it have been the most helpful and touching.
Yes, I have Chiron return coming up, plus many other intense things. Sigh. Lots of change needed, though.

Leslee, please accept my sincere condolences to yo...

Leslee, please accept my sincere condolences to you on the loss of your mother.
My own mother died in 2005 and we had a memorial gathering a month or so later also.
My brother managed to get past our usual problems briefly(he did help me clean the house)but then again right after the memorial he was extremely drunk, and was verbally abusive.
Anyway--the moon squaring your Asc. and Moon sounds exactly right for what you manged to just get through..
I have a feeling that you'll have a lot of slow but very real and intense changes happening in the next year.
Again, no matter our closesness or lack of with our family members it's tough losing our mothers.
Take care Leslee.

Heh. Saturday morning is my mom's memorial service...

Heh. Saturday morning is my mom's memorial service. Fortunately, when she died 2 months ago, my brother who hadn't been speaking to me managed to get passed that, at least for the time being. So far so good. The Scorp new moon squares my Ascendant/Moon (17/18 Leo) and my Chiron (18 Aqu), appropriately enough, from the 4th house.
