Ava I hope it was a good impulse! Well when Tr Sun was transiting over my PHolus (6 Pisces), I was sending P and his friend a message, asking if they blocked me or if it was just my computer acting off. It was totally on impulse, I had not really intend to do that. Well Pholus is in my 3rd house. Usually, in the past, Pholus transits were a biggie, BUT the degree of the consequences was not to be seen right away (for example when I met P, Pholus was transiting our first meeting chart`s ASC, and also his Mercury and in between my ASC and Neptune-NN; even though I registered that this event was something special, I could never in a million years have foreseen what it would lead to!) I doubt however that my computer-trouble-message would really have any other consequences, but the response I got. lol Well another thing, it is a slow moving object, but I see that Tr Pholus is applying to conjunct my Venus. But due to retrogradation it will take some time to get there. At the moment it is on my Vesta and Sun/Venus-mp. It will reach my Venus somewhen next year I suppose. Oh and I guess the nxt New Moon will be near to our composite Pholus (14°55 Pisces), which is the Apex of a minor triangle with Venus on 16 Cap and Eros on the IC on 14-16 Taurus.

More on Pholus, from: here.
"It was the destiny of both centaurs - and many other centaurs, too - to be killed by the poisonous arrows of Hercules. This clearly shows in their astrological significance - all other planetary gods and goddessess are immortal, but the centuars are not. So the specific mythology of the centaurs involves death and transformation - the end of an old life and the beginning of a new and higher life."
"In other words, Pholus symbolizes parts of our nature from which we are still cut off and with which we try to make contact. The parts in question may be areas that connot be unfolded without problems, or, on the other hand, they may concern an area where we try to, an in time do, make great progress. A combination of Pholus and Mercury, for example, can indicat high precision and almost magical power in a person's mercurial abilities, or, to the contrary, dyslexia and dyscalculia....."
"....So Pholus is in a state of tension between self-destruction and the deepening of his own character by additional experiences. The pholic person treads the narrow path of great and seemingly easy success with the risk of catastrophic slips. Whatever actually happens, the person alters. She or he has left the past behind, has cast off an old skin (the Greek word pholis means "scale"), has passed a rocky ledge, and has either quite unexpectedly found a wonderful plateau or stumbled over the edge into the precipice....."

Pholus transits: - Pholus intensifies the natal factor affected by him in a way that we are impelled to unusual and often thoughtless actions in the domain in question. Frequently one feels a kind of "goaded on" and under a hardly sustainable permanent strain.
- An underdeveloped facet of the affected part of our personality suddenly appears. On the one hand, this often gives us a spontaneous insight into our deficiencies in the domain concerned. On the other hand, it drives us even more towards a change.
- The participants often felt a wish of riddance. The old and hitherto sheltering way of life becomes too "limited" and is stripped off without much effort and sometimes even "accidentally" (cf. pholis, squama". A skinning effect). Some persons characterized this process as an "awakening" of new energies, capabilities and insights, often accompanied by a strong enthusiasm.
- Pholus seems to launch us again and again into unexpected frontier situations, where we feel demanded too much and eventually exceed the bounds of our possibilities. In these periods of transition from a suddenly lost security (Saturn) we find ourselves helplessly exposed to and confronted with the neu haziness (Neptune). In this situation we run great risk of calamitous misreactions (self-sabotage, accidents; cf. Pholus death in the myth). On the other hand, this "wobbly" state may give rise to a positive new beginning that leads into a richer and intenser life. In both cases there is a tendency, that the subconsciousness determines the "course".
