I have no comment to make either way about the content of Jan Moir's column (about Stephen Gately) but I will get quite vociferous about the internet campaign launched against her.Whether you are in the UK or not, and know of this story or not, the principle is the same......
When a furore ensues like the one raging around Ms. Moir all those people joining in the 'war of words' against her must be EQUALLY as intolerant as she is, otherwise they would just say 'I don't agree with what she said' and leave it at that. They wouldn't vehemently react against it and actively seek to incite others to agree with them, or work to see her punished.
Jan Moir accepted a job. That job, like that of Amanda Platell and the late Lynda Lee Potter, and all columnists of this ilk, involves being caustic tongued and critical about those in the public eye. If someone wants to get paid for that kind of work, then they have to live with their decision - and believe me they do suffer for that choice. Making critical, negative comments day in day out is eventually poisonous to one's soul. A really happy, sorted person would just never contemplate taking on that kind of job in the first place, probably because deep down they know that nature's laws always kick in.... Law 1: thoughts and words are things, they have energy and if you constantly put of negative energy then Law 2: you will attract it back in some form.
Astrologically, Mars is moving to Jan's Uranus, and Tr Uranus is conjunct her Mars (She was born August 1956) I doubt she'll keep her job, she'll probably walk even if they don't push her. These aspects denote that internally she's needing to be free of something and that's manifested in a way that she probably, subconsciously, knew would cause a stir and shake up her life.
Ultimately though this whole episode shows the truth of the Universal Law of Attraction (aka resonance) - she's just attracting back anger that must lie deep within her Self so she can consciously deal with it. Which leads me to Law Number 3 ; only hurt people hurt.
Until we can find compassion and tolerance for every individuals point of view and see their views, not as an attack on us (or the person they are talking about) but as a reflection of themselves - i.e. their being critical says more about them then it does about who they are writing about - the world's problems will never heal.
Wars start because two countries have two opposing and irreconcilable views. How does it further humanity's wish for peace on earth if we wage war against another individual for their viewpoint?
If I were Darren Brown, Stephen Fry or M&S I would be ashamed of what I had done at this juncture, for all the reason's stated above, and because I firmly believe in Law 4 : Do unto others as you would have done unto you. Still I won't let it bother me after writing this because this I know for sure: these two men, the companies that are distancing themselves from Jan Moir, and all the people speaking out against her, will realise the error of their ways when they too are one day (and it will come) are verbally attacked and persecuted for saying something controversial. That's the natural law.
Leave this poor woman alone.
