*Pleasure in Realistic Assignments*
My dad used to say, "If you can't say anything good about somebody, don't say anything at all." So if I apply that adage to the forecasts, I would have to say almost nothing today. True, we are out of the formulaic |difficult third of the week|, which helps with emotions. But the current and coming oppositions of three, four, or five planets with Saturn are tough. Since Jupiter is one of them, the "mutation" or twenty-year cycle is happening in full force. It is not only the people of northern Japan who are undergoing a major questioning about their future. You are and I am. It varies in intensity and subject-matter for each of us but is a world-wide condition. What are the major decisions or choices you are making now? Isn't it a little tough? Aren't you seeing some things about yourself you didn't want to see, and realizing that you have to just face them as best you can? According to the theory, choices you make now may be determinative for the next twenty years.
The moon in Leo, and Part of Fortune in the 5th, are helping today to make things lighter. Some kind of entertainment, or unusual connections with young people, can uplift moods. As for finances, I wish I could say something good. Maybe the stock market will recover today---I do not try to predict it---but sadly I rather doubt that it will. If it does, maybe I should just give up ever trying to predict it. At any rate, whatever it does your personal finances may seem scanty in some way which disturbs you. Maybe expenses are greater than you thought. I am trying to take my own advice about finishing my taxes by March 18 (instead of April 17, this year's deadline) but a few pieces of the puzzle are delaying me.
Invisible entities are afoot. (Well, do they have feet?) Or they are awing. You could try to make sure they are good influences, or else choose others, as in choosing friends. I tend to believe we are affected by invisible beings much more than we realize. The literature on this, if pondered, is entirely convincing (it convinced Arthur Conan Doyle, creator of Sherlock Holmes, and countless careful intelligent observers since). On the other hand, a lot of "nervous nellies" immediately jump to the conclusion that we can't help being influenced, controlled or hurt by such beings. Of course we can. Unless, of course, we have subconsciously chosen a path of destruction.
The aftershocks of the earthquake are not only physical but psychological, and affect many around the world as much as the Japanese perhaps.
I see a few more indications in the daily chart suggesting a benediction, despite all the suffering and uncertainty, and I hope this is true. It may happen at a spiritual level no matter what is going on materially.
Brave people are facing dangers. These are, for example, the workers at the nuclear plants in Japan, facing the hardest and most lethal tasks of their lifetimes. Others are facing such dangers in Libya, Afghanistan and elsewhere. Without a sense of karma, destiny, or the omnipresent grace of God, I do not know how anyone can face such things. Are not all soldiers somehow religious in the heat of battle?
Nuclear energies are being reexamined, as to their cost, their human cost, and their place in the future of humanity. Energy needs to come from other sources. When shall they be found? Some say they have already been found but not utilized.
There is a balance between nature-minus-humanity, and humanity on top of nature. The happenings in Japan are a signal that Nature sometimes wins and humanity loses. When nature is without humanity, it sighs relief. But is that a signal that we are not really "on top" of Nature and can only be there by treating her as a worthy and lovable steed rather than a stubborn beast? Overbuilding on land not appropriate for buildings seems to be one problem. Behind that is the population problem, a more basic one.
These musings come from positions in the daily chart.
At a practical level, strategies are important, as in preventing nuclear disaster. What strategies are you trying to implement to make things safer or better for you? This can be as simple as organizing possessions. That could prevent you from jumping into foreign situations which could disrupt or hurt.
People may come together for entertainment or other purposes in a way which apportions tasks or duties in a happy way.
Someone who doesn't get around much, maybe confined by weakness, or self-confined, might be going through a morose stage of bitterness and resentment toward anyone and everyone. You might feel some implicit loyalty toward this person and wish to help. Cheering someone is a talent we all have in varying styles. Analyzing self and others is good up to a point, beyond which it can be destructive. People can't help revealing their faults in one way or another, but charity helps them recover from those very faults.
