Tuesday 4 January 2011

People respond to forcefulness and authority. They may not consciously want it but feel subconsciously that it simplifies things for them and so will accede to it. This gives you opportunities if you are ready to secure them.

Something about relatives or cousins, nieces and nephews or aunts and uncles seems to come up, even if parenthetical.

The New Moon of Capricorn occurs at 1:04a PT | 4:04a ET | 9:04a UT. We are in the |difficult or worrisome third of this week| until Wednesday at 11:41a PT | 2:41p ET | 7:41p UT. But by late afternoon or evening things may feel smoother and more comfortable as the moon begins good aspects with Venus and Jupiter. So it's a judgment call as to whether tonight is a good "party" or entertainment night. I tend to say yes, if you make allowance for hypersensitivity in people.

Someone striving for popularity strikes you as over-reaching, trying to appropriate friends as prizes. You appreciate work which feels as if yours, done in seclusion even amid alien circumstances, bringing ultimate profit. While Mercury moves back to its square with Jupiter and Uranus (this time going forward not backward) you may find people have bees in their bonnets about religious, political or other issues.

When out and about you should be careful of the company you keep. Yet there is luck even for those down and out or the homeless: abundance of a sort, in a relative way. So you are able to turn hard circumstances toward the better by an attitude of suave inoffensiveness and infectious peace, which sucks away the steam from any harsh attitudes against you.

Freedom is a hard issue with the sun square Saturn. You want to be more free than you appear to be, yet the appearance of bondage may be necessary training for the real freedom you can acquire by patience. You can relax more when you realize that lessons you have learned are still valid and make things easier when applied. Then you find something fresh and new in the old. That is wiser than "kicking against the pricks" of things that need to be done, better sooner than later.

There is value in old things or curios, even those from the archeological past, if they stimulate you toward understanding. Someone who has defeated you may appreciate the grace of your poised recovery and learn something from you even if not admitting that. Some of your ancestors or relatives may have been farmers, or carpenters, or linked with disciplined employment of earth-materials, and in their blood they call to you to use such skills.

The wheel of history turns and brings now one and now another to the top. Some get carried away with their manas and become predators. It is well to believe in your manas or charisma, your appeal to the hearts of people, for then you win their allegiance effortlessly rather than through compulsion. Such ascendancy is religious or spiritual at root, derived from your soul's insight into divinity plus a resulting ability to perceive like divinity reflected in those around you. By evening this, a male as well as female endowment, could be ineffably liberating.
