}Thrills Buffered in Savvy Caution{

In yesterday's report I gave the exact time of the end of the |hard third| of the week, late afternoon or evening depending on your time zone (later in Europe). So the evening could be a paradigmatic TGIF with a party in order.

Yet you care about deeper matters, philosophic thinking, study, learning how to face the more serious questions in your life, and that is all to the good, developing spiritual muscles and refined tastes.

Sad to say, a compulsion toward cruelty may arise in some, so you should be aware of that in order to prevent sad happenings. It's as if someone were to feel, "Well, no matter what, this person is never going to change his/her mind, so I may as well insult or hurt him/her and be done and over with it." A temptation one's better self rejects, in order to prevent interminable repercussions. Words of criticism should be veiled so as not to appear harsh. Sometimes human beings cannot help being what they are, which only astrology and the laws of reincarnation and karma can explain.

Yet you could exercise enormous persuasive powers, and so should not give up on anyone entirely. When you know you are right, something enters into you to make your speech and action convincing.

Skill and tact are required in the financial realm (with the period of taxes and accounting coming up). If you feel lacking in these, in any particular, you could enlist expert assistance (before the time given in the second paragraph following).

A certain debonair carelessness in the way people speak should not mislead you. They say things they don't really mean in order to make a point. However, if the bee in their bonnet is extremely painful, they could be dangerous. It's a matter of quick judgment.

Incidentally, computers sometimes have those bees in their hard drives, or operating systems, and some will be considering a change-over to something better; it is not a bad time for that if you feel it necessary (sun and Mercury trine Uranus in a Bright Hermetic Epoch). This might apply to smart phones also. However, if it ain't one damn' thing it's another, and the moon enters the Via Combusta at 11:42a PT | 2:42p ET | 7:42p UT, so it might be wise to wait until next week for a final decision on such matters.

When dissatisfied, you can be steadfast in what you know has proved itself in your experience. That could save you from a lot of questioning and quibbling with yourself or someone else. A fresh viewpoint on something which troubles you might be in your face so you can ponder it, question it, and ultimately reject it in favor of what you know to be reliable.

As I interpret the current shape of the solar system relative to Earth, it is a Bucket pattern with Mars as the handle planet. So you are indomitable along the lines of whatever you are trying to accomplish. You will not give up, but find the best way sooner or later. And if the world doesn't come around to see things your way, well, it will eventually, you insist.

Eccentric enthusiasm linked with a large field of choice when it comes to love-alliances could make things dicey in the emotional realm. This could be thrilling at times, at the "party" already suggested. Wandering eyes will give the eye. Most likely unserious and temporary, erotic attractions could still be fascinating and instructive. But please don't accuse me of tempting you toward sin. The Via Combusta means, appreciate what is happening while suspicious of where it is going.
