Forecast for Friday 26 February 2010

Friday 26 February 2010

*Confluence of Vital Enjoyment*

Sometimes I like to use orange on the moon-in-Leo day. The sun definitely seems a friend, except in places and times when it is dreadfully hot. Today could be a day for romantics. The Full Moon is approaching (Saturday-Sunday).

I would guess that, in order to escape drift, you have been making some nice, definite choices lately, perhaps about your daily schedule and routine. Eliminating both spatial and temporal clutter is certainly a helpful procedure. You want to be firm with yourself, holding to wise daily patterns you have worked out through suffering and relieved-suffering. The relief comes from doing things according to methods and schedules which you have learned to be beneficial.

Taking the stock market as a symbol of the gyrations of fortune, the indefiniteness of it has been disconcerting. If you are not an investor the uncertainty has come out in other ways. I shrink from making too definite promises, but I continue to maintain that February 28 through April 3 will be a good time to get as firm a grip on your plans and detailed intentions as we will have (until the next Bright Hermetic Epoch begins for two months beginning May 28). This time, almost the first half of the Bright Epoch has been blunted by Mars being retrograde together with odd and perplexing planetary configurations. Mars does not turn direct until March 10, but other changes in the patterns (too complex to enumerate) begin on the 28th, Sunday.

It is interesting how character develops and emerges over the years. The mature man is the same as the young man, yet not. He has definitely learned a few things. Most of them he could not even formulate in words. (Of course it is the same for women, but the pronoun problem is just too weird in English. We need a new neuter pronoun.) Today whatever you have so learned is bearing fruit in good relationships. You may realize that your strength and maturity draw certain people to you. Your skills, which you do not cease to practice, are stimulating to others, get their attention, and make you popular.

I am wanting this to be a promising forecast because I see no reason why it could not be a pleasant day; yet conscience requires me to mention the yod pattern with Mars at point focus, since it is prominent in the daily chart. To be brief, at worst it could be someone going off on an unexpected tangent, going wild or getting angry and hurting someone else. I have seen this happen under this aspect. I mention it not to ruin your day but to remind you to be careful, especially when around alcohol, drinkers, or the most violent demographic, young males.

Taking a wide view of people and things allows you to enjoy almost any form of entertainment. Sometimes we need to do this when a partner or friend enjoys something we don't. The classic ball game or chick flick? dilemma is an obvious example, extending to different tastes in music and so on. Today I think you will be happy to expand your horizons and tastes a bit.

A shared meal could be a good answer to inchoate longings. The familiar within the unfamiliar is reassuring, exalting, and one happy reward of a week's labor. Because people are wanting to experiment a bit, the unusual and spontaneous may heighten romance surprisingly.
