*Coasting to a Turning Point*
The moon finishes its transit of Aries today. The Part of Fortune is in the 12th house, that is, the moon is declining in apparent size until the New Moon Thursday evening. This is a time for extra rest, especially since Mercury remains retrograde. It turns direct this evening (Tuesday) at 3:28p PT | 6:28p ET | 10:28p UT. But don't expect things to be suddenly brighter and easier. The Dark Hermetic Epoch continues until May 28.
So today is a winding-down period, not a building-up period. I suppose all the Puritans, moralists, and believers in the Work Ethic would condemn me for saying "take it easy" but I'll say it anyway. Obviously if you have a job you have to do it. But you can still "take it easy" in the sense of doing nothing unnecessary, which would more likely make things worse than better. Imagine yourself to be a yogi sitting in a cave. You are linking with something beyond the time-process, something everlasting. This does not deny or negate the time-process, but is a needed vacation from it.
A lot is gentle and easy. Love is here, somehow or other, lurking or hiding or peeking out. It is not overt and dramatic. Venus is beginning her difficult square with Saturn, though still in a sextile with Mars. Love is tested, but that does not mean it is absent. It can grow stronger through the buffeting it endures. This will be in your partnership, if you have a partner. If not, it is more subtle, perhaps entirely on the spiritual level. What Sri Aurobindo has written about love given to the Divine and received from the Divine is utterly extraordinary and life-redeeming (in his work The Synthesis of Yoga).
