Forecast for Wednesday 2 September 2009

Wednesday 2 September 2009

}Escapism or Dedication{

Strange things are happening. My email is not working. The weather is peculiar. Other communications about important topics have been failing. We must be in the Dark Hermetic Epoch.

I have not been mentioning it lately because I wasn't feeling it crucially until the past few days. Yesterday and today I am feeling it very strongly.

I don't have time here to outline the meaning of that two-month period (August 17 until October 14 this time) but if you have been reading these reports for a while you must know the basics of what it means.

Caution is important. That is not a paranoid warning, just an advisement to let common sense rule whenever you are in doubt, and avoid unnecessary risks. Of course it is your own judgment which will determine that, but I would say, ratchet up your judgment's skepticism by a notch or two when it comes to anything either dangerous or way out of your usual pattern.

The fires in California and the miserably contaminated election in Afghanistan are two incidences of what the Dark Epoch can mean. A third is the stock market's downward trend (so far) this week. People tend to feel they are somewhat lost. The period tends to get denser, or darker, as we proceed into it, and especially during the Mercury-retrograde period at its center, which will be from September 6 until September 29. (I did not say that the stock market will plunge during that period, however, although it might; it is extremely difficult to predict market trends with any certainty. I do fairly accurate guesswork, but it remains guesswork.)

I am writing this report on the Yahoo Group website rather than in my email, and that is the first time I have had to do that in perhaps years. I'm also writing it almost two hours later than I intended. The unexpected is to be expected. Sometimes, of course, this can be pleasant rather than dismal surprises.

On Wednesday we technically have Prime Time until the moon conjoins Neptune at 10:20p PT | 1:20a(Th) ET | 5:20a(Th) UT, after which it is void of course. But this is not a very prime Prime so I would call it sub-prime, because Neptune can be a confusing planet except when it is with trines and sextiles from other planets. According to your spiritual awareness will be your mood today.

There could be a tendency toward laziness and snobbishness, or drifting on your prerogatives. There could be a rabid impulse toward revenge. This, of course, could have disastrous results.

You are likely to persist in a very strong way with whatever seems radically important to you. That is good so long as you are sure of your ground.

A simple and honest approach will win eventually, if people feel you are being transparent, almost childlike.

An old, archaic, or well-used place could be good for you, helping you regain poise and mental perspective.

As yesterday, spiritual study and prayer will help even if you don't "feel like" doing it at first. It may taste like medicine, then turn into tonic or elixir.

As an escape you could turn to something luxurious but meaningless. Well, a little of that is okay but a little goes a long way.

I don't mean to be Puritan but I think you will sense what I am saying; that your true self wants to do something a little more dedicated at this time.
