}Being Who You Are{

Things look quite smooth at least until the moon goes void of course in the night, at 7:25p PT | 10:25p ET | 2:25a(Sa) UT. There is a lot of catching up to do, which you may actually enjoy because it lifts morale. There is a fair amount of pleasure, although tinged with seriousness.

An acquisitive trend is not wrong if you are also aware of how you might use your gains for the benefit of others. There is a panorama of events you can observe in an unattached, peaceful, contemplative mood. Deeper matters can be understood. It is not easy to understand earthquakes, such as the second one afflicting Japan on Thursday (although not seriously it would appear), but astrology can help, as for example Pluto in Capricorn is stationary turning retrograde: Pluto the planet of the "underworld" or what is under the earth's surface, in the cardinal earth sign Capricorn. It has been squared on both sides by planets in the cardinal signs Libra and Aries during the whole earthquake episode since March 11. At that point when the quake hit, it was Jupiter in Aries which formed with Saturn and Pluto the effective T square. You know, if you are a careful reader, that I have harped (and piped) upon the significance of that opposition as a once-every-20-years phenomenon which is life-changing. What are the life-changes you have been going through for the past year? Some are still in process but some will be wrapped up, perhaps, in May. (We ought to give thanks that the changes we are going through are not nearly as disastrous of those experienced by some in Japan or Africa.)

You sense that some are imitating others, or being mildly insincere, even if with serious purposes, that is, the mimic in them wants to get out and be free to improvise. Being what one is not is one way of finding out how to be what one is. You need to recuperate in a variety of ways, either through actual rest at times or doing things in a more relaxed free-form style.

Some individuals may seem suspicious. I do not want to increase paranoia in these reports. What I mean is that you may note, whether correctly or not, suspicious behavior in someone who either tries to influence you or does so in a subtle hypnotic way without intending it. This is something to conjure with or pray about so you may not be hurt or confused by it. This may be more than one person, or even strangers. Maybe just noting it and facing it, pondering it without being upset by it, will clear the air.

If you are around students, they may pose strikingly as figures allied with nature in their youth. So you learn from them how to be relaxed while learning, beautiful while serious. Dancing, sports or play could be invigorating. Spring is springing. A link with the earth, a garden or growing things, is natural and strengthening.

You may feel that your place in the world, in the eyes of others, is shaping up, and that is because you care about them as much as (or more than) yourself. Ingenuity manifests through you when you have a mission to perform and a resulting flow of inspiration. Recent problems with disagreement are a reflection of your determination to manifest that mission despite negative opinions about what you are doing. So you can be brave in sticking to what is significant for you---"It's what I do," an old friend used to say to those who questioned his work.
