*A Little Lightening Up, Let's Hope*

Some of the gloom some or all of us have experienced during Wednesday and Thursday may be with us for a while yet, but technically the |difficult or demanding third of the week| is with us today until 2:27p PT | 5:27p ET | 9:27p UT. It is nice that the weekend will be free of it, though of course challenges never end in our "sublunar world."

An emphasis on money continues, but whether that is lucky for you or seemingly unlucky is hard to tell. Perhaps you are reorganizing and rethinking your personal finances. It might be a good shopping day for some purposes.

You might be aware of some who are quite notable in the financial sphere or who have been successful, and get clues from them. You may be intrepid in pursuing your particular goals and the business techniques which accompany them.

You may have the power of persuasion when you are moved by deep principles within you, so that you can state what others are afraid to say but long to hear.

Group work can be frustrating when it seems people are working with no visible result. Some things have to be slow at this point in the evolution of the human race. There is needed reformation of all who put themselves in positions of authority (except for those very few who have the personal meekness of Moses). Unswerving faith is needed, so that you sort out those to whom you wish to be loyal from those to whom your loyalty is no longer alive or relevant. You can be loyal to these latter also in spirit, that is, in higher aspiration, though not necessarily in material or time-consuming relationship.

The Full Moon arrives at 6:38p PT | 9:38p ET | 1:38a(Sa) UT.

Some morose individuality is possible. You may feel angry at the world for being so inane. Of course you are not; none of us feel we are. It is hard to get out of resenting and rebuking the world or people when one feels bitterly disappointed. Some philosophers such as Kierkegaard, Nietzsche or Wittgenstein have the reputation of being melancholic individualists, not socially "nice" or competent. Sometimes genius needs inchoate solitude rather than social finesse. Beyond that, today there could also be some self-indulgence when you feel aloof and just want to please yourself. Whether this is dangerous or not depends on what you are neglecting, perhaps.

Through all the disaffection, you can still find your way through the maze of life with quite wonderful success. You can trust your inner compass.

There can be some shared contacts such as while eating together (or drinking with moderation). These exalt the sorority-fraternity of humanity.

Sometimes you want to parry with people mentally or otherwise, not meaning anything except "We are all different and when we compete we are playing." That is a relief, and one factor behind the popularity of games of all sorts.
