Wednesday 1 June 2011

}Personal Economy Prospers{

The New Moon (of Gemini, with the sun and moon therein) arrives at 2:04p PT | 5:04p ET | 9:04p UT. I believe there is sufficient momentum in the day so that even before that, things can be pushed in a strong positive direction.

Organizing mechanical things could be done successfully. You like to see things functioning correctly in their proper places.

People are clever and sharp in joking or witty observation. Life looks good enough so that making fun of it is enlivening rather than depressing.

Anything morose might have to do with burdens you face, your "cross to bear," yet you are capable of handling that with enduring good sense, perhaps in tandem with a companion or coworker.

Hard labor of the past and present is bearing rich fruitage. So you do not complain about it. Ordinary efficiency makes you reliable, and that improves your financial status with all with whom you deal.

You are pleased with your living situation and the way in which Providence has set it up for you. You share it with someone whose approach differs from yours; yet see how the two may be resolved from moment to moment.

You have reasoned out your financial position soundly. You see the chemical composition, as it were, of your income. Likewise, the spiritual side of it is not lost on you, for scripture or high teaching shows you how to use your money and thereafter grants more of it.

}Interim Catching-Up{

Realism accompanies the beginning of a new work-week (in the U. S. after the Monday holiday). The trine of the sun and Saturn gives an ability to discriminate your true path from false ones. So you are shrewd in finances and business. However, this might not be as likely during the hours when the moon is void-of-course (at the end of Taurus), 8:38a-4:57p PT | 11:38a-7:57p ET | 3:38p-11:57p UT. Making practical decisions would be better before or after that period.

It is good to be detached about money and prosperity, in order to screw up the "shrewdness." In other words, the one who is not grasping or greedy is the shrewder one. When depressed, you could gravitate toward negative envy. It is good rather to be reliable in little things, because such reliability is your immediate character, without which life loses its base. If this seems hard, the hardness when faced will strengthen you. What would money be without the reliability of those who provide goods or services because of it?

People need the depth of vision you can provide, though they may not realize this. By hinting at it you influence them. Much has to be indirect if they are afraid to see the nitty-gritty.

Excitement amid superficial changes can be exalting. You run to catch up with whatever you can, and this keeps you in shape. Something which will bring you before the public in a position of charisma or influence is developing through peculiar changes you can't quite grasp as to their ultimate import. That might be easier by tomorrow afternoon's New Moon.

\Privilege through Restful Comprehension/

Mysterious factors seem to be obstacles. You meet a crisis by holding on to your purposes even in the face of failure. People who misunderstand may be part of the problem.

Yet there is much vitality, with the moon and three major planets in Taurus. It could be a day for the outdoors and the lushness of growing entities.

Sometimes you feel that your major activities are unknown, ignored by the world, yet strong and real within you. They continue even when you are in a public place such as a park (or perchance a cemetery on Memorial Day).

What you contribute may seem mysteriously real to yourself, yet merely recreation to others. Mountains or other country scenery take on depth of meaning.

Your field of study or achievement requires diligence, and this does not trouble you because luck attends it.

If near water, you can gaze into it and receive secret knowledge.

You meet the world with sophisticated poise because you have settled certain things in your mind and will not be moved from your positive direction.

Your world does not have to be rebuilt constantly. We are in the final phase of an Old Moon before the New on Wednesday afternoon, so extra rest befits the holiday. Things coast a bit today and through Tuesday until then. Still, there is brilliant awareness on many levels. You are up on some matters or questions of your career, your major focus, and even if there is not much to accomplish outwardly you are making progress through powerful insight.

Saturday 28 May 2011

The day gets gradually better, that is to say, smoother and easier, as the moon escapes slowly from its opposition with Saturn and (in Aries) conjoins Jupiter early Sunday.

That might be all you need to know.

I could go into a lot of details, as usual, but since this is a holiday weekend I think I will give myself a break from that.

A long-term issue is Saturn's opposition with Uranus, and the square of both with Pluto, a lasting T-square. However, these aspects "refrain" from becoming exact in the summer, because two of them change direction (from geocentric perspective). We live with the laws of karma which lock us into certain situations. You know what they are for you.

The sun's growing trine with Saturn, exact in three days or when the work week begins, is a good sign, suggesting that practical matters and agreements may be settled or near settlement.

Other pleasant aspects suggest an easing of pressures and a sense of well-being both Saturday and Sunday.

*Poise*

Although today and tomorrow constitute the |emotionally difficult third of this week|, there is nonetheless an emphasis on friendship insofar as sensitivities allow.

People are able to be personally impersonal (if you sense what lies beyond that paradox). They realize that there are mysteries surrounding everyone (some wonder whether married couples even understand each other) and so respect those differences even when not claiming to understand them. Such mutual respect gets a recompense in unsuspected ways.

Brilliant insight can be yours when you adhere to the guidance of your own genius. You discover original potentials in your location or at home, some of them startling.

Those who ordinarily have a fighting spirit, itching for a pugilistic encounter, may calm down in the face of what they see as dangers not worth provoking.

There can be a spirit of veneration, of honoring the Supreme One through His or Her superphysical manifestations (depicted as angels or the like). This happens most likely when one is brought to one's knees through realizing limitations.

If feeling dislocated, unsure of one's home or as if homeless, there is a remedy in ordinary industrious activity of the most humble sort, at home or temporary headquarters.

Although the moon is in Aries, a fire sign, if near water you might gaze into it and secrets could be revealed.

You rise above embarrassments readily, because sure of the role you intend to play. So you convey a sophisticated poise to those around you even if more unsure within yourself than they know.

~Honor Within the Self~

Speculating for profit has been a recent preoccupation. It may be showing good results. However, today it might be wise to hold back on major changes or initiatives until the moon is no longer void-of-course, after it enters Aries at 5:37p PT | 8:37p ET | 12:37a(F) UT. This means that most of the day and all of the "working day" is better for the ordinary and routine than for the ambitious or adventurous.

Pets or other animals may be significant. Preventing cruelty is important. You facilitate things when you adhere to normal necessities around the house or headquarters.

What you have refined and specialized in your approach to life is your forte, and it is important to stay with it through the hard parts. It might involve a teaching role even if the teaching and learning is mostly subconscious on both sides.

Observing possibilities, and assuming they could come true in a happy way, is good to do while the moon is void-of-course, rather than being depressed. You can visualize the world you want. Then you will feel contented while bringing it into reality in simple stress-less ways, without hurry. You can let things happen almost aimlessly, watching them emerge or making them happen but without fuss. You have a fondness for hidden or secret knowledge, such as the mystical or anything you contemplate in solitude.

~Helpful Choices Within Normality~

A normalization process is under way. That means you don't feel as lost as you did in April and even the earlier part of this month (which was better than April).

Someone you know is well-featured, sharp-looking, and neat; able to handle many factors efficiently. This person's friendship is good for you. He or she may have cutting opinions on politics or religion; yet this need not destroy the friendship even if you partly disagree.

Some factors you would like to convey to others, some ideas, seem lost to them no matter how you explain them. This could be depressing. Some things you know seem so important that others are losing out by not heeding what you say. It would be easier to communicate anything, or reach agreements or make decisions, before 11:16a PT | 2:16p ET | 6:16p UT. After that the moon (in Pisces) goes void of course for a whole day, so the rest of Wednesday and most of Thursday are good for routine matters rather than new opportunities.

Your sagacity amounts to mastery and you may feel justly proud of it. You have a teaching role to some degree, although limited by what was said in the previous paragraph. Your specialized field requires much attention.

Efforts connected with your home seem incomplete, yet you care enough to keep on, especially when the needs of others (or plants or animals) are involved. Background or routine things may be handled in private without fanfare.

When some matters are just beyond control (especially after the time in paragraph 2) you may need to retreat into the spiritual world, which is real although centered in ideas and ideals which become actual through attention and faith. Then you can handle normal matters industriously, firm in your understanding that they contribute to the ideal and, as it were, support it or make it real on the material plane. Moving things into place so they are convenient is helpful. But any agreements or deals should be made before the time given. After that things move more into the intangible domain (although the ordinary or routine remains feasible).

~The Ordinary Treasured as Process Toward Satisfaction~


Seeing exactly what is there, no more and no less, you are keen to make practical choices. This is true even though the moon in Pisces with Neptune gives a visionary caste to the day. You are able to separate the visionary from the practical so you don't come to grief materially. Then you are able to ritualize social connections pleasingly. Accurate perceptions prevent you from being misled.

At times you need to be alone to ponder things at a deeper level which exalts you. Then you emerge from that refreshment able to grope toward valuable activities despite inward solitude. Younger people appreciate your attitude.

Memories of farm or country life, for those once connected with it, are alive. When things seem disjointed and disappointing, you are able to retreat to a level of mutual assurance where everything is maintained securely.

Those who feel they have made errors of judgment will feel better when they care for their world in a simple honest way which protects and preserves it. Better things grow up when cared for with the aid of lessons learned.

Things you can do at or near home, or headquarters, are fruitful eventually, no matter how ordinary; in fact the ordinary may be the most important. You visualize hopes ahead. Though the steps to them are less thrilling than the goal, they are interesting in their own way.

An organization you control, or partly control, or influence, has more power than you realize and your dealings with it are fortunate. There may seem to be hidden factors behind it which no one completely understands, yet it manifests luxury through consistent effort, investment of energy and wealth.

Ordinary things you do to maintain your position or career are fortunate. You are visualizing even better things in an entertaining way, but the former lead up to them.

Rural or natural scenery is good for you, giving you strength. Within or near it, you are aware of your specialized skills and how to continue developing them.

You are seeing how to enlarge such skills in a way which pleases others as well as yourself, and this involves ingenuity. Enlisting mental energies, you give out what you know with a note of authority.

People have a need for much you can give in a caring manner, including therapy. Flexibility and mathematical skill help you figure out the best way to utilize talents. As a humanitarian, you dedicate yourself to others' needs, and this benefits you in a big way.

\Right Attitudes Evoke Effortless Effort/

Although there are many hopeful signs, individuals are still concerned about their own economies and "the economy." This may be apparent today in your thinking. Doing something which benefits G*d or humanity is the key to comfort about finances. Most may think they cannot "benefit G*d," but scriptural study and prayer of the right sort do just that, at least in the sense of making us less offensive to the Supreme One than we would be otherwise. With the moon in Capricorn sign of the knees, kneeling might be appropriate. G*d is not patterned after human tyrants and their injustice.

It is necessary to reject what is wrong at every point, before it gets a foothold in consciousness. Yet you can at the same time retain your freedom to be curious about the world and people. The trick is in noticing everything, but dismissing as "unreal" in the philosophic and mystical sense whatever is wrong or offensive. Then one does not react to it in a way which makes things worse, but could respond in a measured way which makes things better. There is security for those who trust in the Higher Power which has already sustained them through countless difficulties.

That which you have studied, or learned through practical experience, you can share, for it is something others don't know and could use. If it is controversial, there is still a need for it. Although one cannot pry open a closed mind, by dropping pearls before it one might induce it to open in the future. People have lower (or baser) and higher natures, alternating between them.

Gloom is part of the pattern, with Mars and Venus both tri-septile Saturn, yet there is a sharing which can dispel much of the gloom by symbolizing or evoking a festive attitude. If beneficent to animals, children and the less mature, you induce happier feelings which ultimate in good fortune.

There is peace when you realize you are sustained easily through a correct attitude to everything. That is magic, which entails efforts of the right sort, though effortless efforts. When apparently accomplishing nothing, you might turn in thought to your ideals and cultivate them--feed and water them by reinforcing your faith in them. Right action will follow sooner or later.

\Wise Intent, with Privilege and Contentment/

Thursday and today are the two days of this week I would generally designate as |emotionally difficult or stressful|. As usual, there are mitigating factors, such as the gradually increasing trine of the moon in Capricorn with the sun in the last degree of Taurus.

Costs, work, and creativity are mixed up together.

Trying to save people is important, as in the mode of the President's address Thursday. Yet you may feel you need to be somewhat aloof in order to do that, or garner strength and strategy for it. So it may appear you are resting in luxury.

You master things through specialization, able to see intricacies and perhaps teach some in a friendly manner. You are finding your way through tempting passionate attractions in a richly human style, which includes reason as well as impulse, the former moderating the latter.

There is magic in trusting. It is not necessary to work out every detail; you are sustained by a correct attitude more than a stringent strategy. Easy paths may seem lassitude or outright laziness, yet have inherent justification when they are paths of peace.

Human rights need to be upheld. People are awakening to this all over the globe. Rights of women mingle with a clever sophistication in clarifying and upholding them.

There is an easygoing, luxuriating tendency, not without its serious side, yet content with whatever satisfactions lie at hand.

\Satisfaction through Care and Cultivated Significance/

The day is a mixture in a big way, with negative and positive indications, that is, difficult and pleasing ones, panning out about equal. There could be a great deal of pleasure, yet tinged with serious concerns which can't help coming forward.

A turn to the spiritual side of your nature would protect you. Jesus said the man who wanted to be "chiefest" would have to be "servant of all" (Mark 10). This is a hard saying which has echoed down the centuries making men more humble than they would have been otherwise. When you focus on your own tasks, chosen by your capabilities, you work through pros and cons of how to proceed and end up "serving" better than if you had sought satisfaction for its own sake. Whereas those who seek to rule regardless of their qualifications end up as despised tyrants.

Horticulture or gardening is favored, as it has been recently with four planets in Taurus (because the Aries stellium has moved into that sign). This creates a social or neighborly situation. Cutting back unwanted growth and removing waste is sometimes necessary.

Failures or losses are in your consciousness as a basis for reformulated endeavor. We sometimes lose family connections because preoccupied with something more individual and personal. That is fine when the direction is positive, but still the tradition of family, or ancestry, has meaning and value.

With the moon in Capricorn square Saturn, people have a tendency to hurt one another. This can be conscious or subconscious; a desire to torment someone in order to "get even." Yet when the depths of the trend have been reached, there is an awakening to the tragedy on the way and the situation can be saved through wise choice.

Sheer pleasure is all right when one's conscience approves. There is a trend to bodily luxury and easy satisfaction. This is better when shared as consciously as possible with someone (or several).

The adventurous side of the day can save it, if it awakens you to unsuspected glories in the human race. Aplomb can survive any disappointment. Nature provides so much, more than we comprehend, and simply appreciating that, and perhaps improving it, in the company of fellow human beings can make the day a happy one.

*Gifted and Connected Yet Sole*

There are signs of an easing in things. We have been in the Bright Hermetic Epoch since a week, but it seems to me it has been slow in getting in motion. Now with the beginning of a trine between the sun and Saturn, it may be starting to flower. That means, ideally, until July 15 you will be able to sort things out and make solid helpful choices.

Today there's a bit of reaching toward the impossible, which could be exhilarating even if mildly foolish. Those who think themselves too mature for fresh love may be surprised by the turn of events. It seems you are on a beautiful avenue which has no end.

The Centaur designating Sagittarius wherein the moon coasts, half man and half horse, signals that you give in to passions at least in your mind and feelings, then become more human or reasonably controlled, and repeat the process. You do this perhaps while in unfamiliar territory. At the same time there is an academic or intellectual atmosphere, wherein your specialization is accented in your thinking. You sense that you could be a caretaker of animals, or of human animals, that is, the young.

What you do best is yours to do with happy authority. It gets recognition in your home base or community. Whatever has been a missing link, denying you access to certain people or resources, is being provided by yourself and others. You see beauties in the earth and sky, as well as people, and unite them through magical acts of consciousness.

To make virile this bright picture, a warning: Wrath or enmity hidden away somewhere could spring up and cause you to hurt someone you like, even someone close to you. Extreme patience under duress is recommended. That is possible through faith in good things coming, of which you have had abundant hints. Such faith will help especially when you feel alone, or willfully alone, looking out at those who seem alien, feeling they would only be important if relating to you on your own terms. That is your choice, of course, so long as you also respect them for themselves, however much at a distance.

*The Warmth and Color of the Season*

For months there has been an astrological emphasis on home-change. This has been obvious in my own life, but in these reports I never consider my personal horoscope. So I conclude that I am not the only one who is going through changes in regard to domicile, domain, living location or situation. For some this may be having visitors rather than themselves traveling or moving. For others it could be remodeling or rebuilding. For others it could be reorganizing so that home seems fresh and new. There is special activity in this area of the horoscope today.

Finances are mixed, with the Market quite unpredictable of late, but whatever your luck, you are making headway in organizing your finances, or establishing income or savings. This can be through detachment and stringent economy as well as through gain. Restraint in purchasing one thing provides gain for something else. Envy of anyone is not gain, but could provide incentive for it.

Silly people may seem to be around; you see them as that because they do not know their real value but rather a false value based on superficiality. Dogged efforts can bring you the escape from triviality you long for. A man without internal philosophic orientation is unable to find the treasure available all about him. You may think a better place would help, but perhaps you need a better, more comprehensive viewpoint.

The time of the Full Moon (this morning) was given in yesterday's forecast. At that point the moon goes void-of-course (in Scorpio) until it enters Sagittarius at 10:24a PT | 1:24p ET | 5:24p UT. After that you will be better able to connect with people or make choices.

You want to be in a place where there is honest, real, reliable instruction and you admire someone who provides it. Who is channeling the wisdom of the ages in an accessible manner? He or she loves the beauty of nature and recasts it through art, whether verbal, visual, or musical. That makes you feel secure and comfortable, better able to harmonize with your environment.

Those who have lived long are enjoying the fruits of their lives and making them available to family or community. The hopefulness of springtime is with us in a shape it has never exactly worn before. You and others are impressionable and sensitive to depths of feeling about you, able to transcribe it in soulful guise so that life becomes more vivid or vivacious.

~Strengthening Transformation and Self-Reliance~

Jaya Ganesha! The elephant-god of the Hindus seems to be with us today. You are keeping your own counsel while you survey career potentials, costs, and possible home changes. There is basic concord and harmony as we approach the full moon (exact Tuesday morning at 4:10a PT | 7:10a ET | 11:10a UT). You coax what you need from life by your constancy of attention to everyone's happiness or well-being.

Your abilities seem to be lacking a fertile field for their flowering, or you do not use them at the best moment or in the best situation. You may be astounded at how certain individuals waste their lives in vain pursuits, ignoring the wisdom proffered them by the best teachers and scriptures on every side. The only escape from meaninglessness is continued curiosity about whatever interests you, together with expanded interests, shrewd practically and elevated spiritually.

Adventure in the company of interesting or amusing individuals offers itself, albeit in ways which are hard to comprehend in terms of their utility. Being happy with what you have and can do is the key to---well, happiness itself, for Nature smiles on you when you do what makes sense in a simple way. What has outlived its usefulness need not cling to you as you attempt to move beyond, although the spiritual essences of all remain with you no matter what the outer reorientation.

To be isolated internally is not bad when it makes you a deep soul. Then you see the value in all individuals and places especially when you yourself are not able to connect with them. You applaud them silently, as it were, which makes you closer to G*d. Then you will not attempt to exceed them in a vain or overly ambitious manner which could cause grief. You will be ready for transforming tides or winds around you, seeing beyond their harshness to the fresh scenes they uncover.

}Toward Difficult Compatibility{

There is a focus on sharing, whatever that might mean in your current context. It is difficult sharing, as mentioned yesterday, for human differences are accented. Those who are with you from a distance or through travel are, some of them, large souls. There is strength through understanding, which amounts almost to conquest. There are questions about how much who has given to whom. You do not wish to be left behind or sidetracked.

How to profit by opportunities is a question. You have escaped from one situation and may be wondering how to escape from another. Some may be so vain or self-centered that they cannot see, hear, or comprehend what others are trying to convey to them.

There is impressionability, so that you can tune in to what people are feeling, as well as to those who are not on this plane of existence. At best this creates a hopeful attitude, as if all were climbing with the aid of others around them. Those of mature years seem to be gathering together some of the fruits of their endeavors.

The harsh side of the day could come out in argument. This is because people are trying to understand things rationally, and their attempts at present do not always lead to compatible conclusions. More study and thought is necessary. But if you labor toward your own understanding, and do tasks you see as important, you will be on top of the process.

[This could not be posted on blogger while it was down just after I wrote it.]

I’m writing this while the moon is void-of-course in Virgo, where it will be until it enters Libra Friday at 8:58a PT | 11:58a ET | 3:58p UT. After that it will be easier to get a handle on things or the weekend.

The primary need both Friday and Saturday is to sharpen and sensitize your own approach to life, that is, within yourself, and then to define that more fully through interpersonal relations. This may not be easy but it will be well worth while no matter how difficult. When people are talking past or seeing past each other rather than understanding each other, still there is learning going on no matter how subtle, subjective, or hidden. By Saturday afternoon this should be happening in a very strong and decisive manner. That is, a relationship (or more than one) is clarified in a difficult yet happy manner.

At that same time, career and home base get settled in a stronger more satisfying direction. Friday is leading up to these events or realizations.

Meanwhile I would suggest that whatever practical or business matters you have in hand could be settled better on Thursday than on the weekend, while the moon in Virgo trines the sun in Taurus (until it goes void-of-course at 7:53p PT | 10:53p ET | 2:53a(F) UT.

~Being Your Stronger, Wiser, Better Self~

This could be the hardest day of the week from some viewpoints. However, as always, mitigating factors are present. The moon is in Cancer, sign of the mother, on the day before "her day" (although I have always regarded this as a commercial holiday created by corporations to sell more stuff Mother doesn't need). Since it is square Saturn, some may be feeling, "Oh what a bother, Mother knows I love her, why all this fuss?"

However, five planets in the sector ruling pleasure suggest you might have a good time, although in somewhat conservative ways because overdoing it could lead to problems.

Harshness or even criminality in someone who appears interesting might turn up. This is a clue; how it might work out has limitless possibilities, perhaps only noting a suspicious character somewhere. You can facilitate things around your domicile in a somewhat impatient way, attending to trivial details. Arguments or fights are possible so it is wise to prevent them.

Pleasant surroundings please you. You have enough to enjoy life. Things fall together nicely. A playful quality is manifest, although you may decide some of it is foolish and turn to something more serious.

A businesswoman or farm woman might turn up, somewhat interesting even if you disappoint each other. Your interaction with her is disjointed. You are favored by a woman, however, no matter what the difficulties.

Those who have passed from this world deserve, sometimes, our attention! They are still with us in memory, in their huge influence on our consciousness, and sometimes invisibly-superphysically. You are wanting to exert yourself along the lines of talent or career. This means fighting to establish yourself. You are aware of your own merit and by your giving of yourself will awaken others to it.

}Escaping from Stress by Transmuting It{

This might be the smoothest or most facilitative day of this week. Yet what you do is personal, or private, close to home in a sense, although a distant scene or travel is on your mind. It is wise not to let go or relax too soon until you have gotten things in order.

Some insights or experiences may be too personally and spiritually real to speak of. Yet although you can't give out the deep secrets, you can intimate them for those who might catch clues. Some who seem odd or peculiar may have great genius they can't express to the ordinary mind.

Those who are self-centered and worldly are being buffeted by fate to tender them up for higher realizations of their destiny which they could only perceive through humility. Some things you are doing to escape from one situation into another are demanding but when you sense the freedom coming you persist. Some opportunities which lie all around you have been neglected; you realize that, while trying to make the best of it.

Are you dropping something which could have been your salvation? Maybe you will pick it up again later. Meanwhile you can reformulate what you have learned through it, to use wherever fate places you. There is nature wherever you are; farming or gardening could go well.

Friendship between the sexes, perhaps Platonic, can be superb, adding to the happiness of the whole community. Past suffering is being transformed, and you sense the middle path between extremes by ruminating upon past loyalties and present ones. Warfare is a trap the human race has falling into too often. There are signs of greater consciousness of what it has meant and how it can be avoided or transmuted into something creative (the "moral equivalent of war" in William James's terms).

}Satisfying Community Awareness{

Things may pick up after the moon enters Gemini (and so is no longer void-of-course) at 10:10a PT | 1:10p ET | 5:10p UT. Mysterious things may become clear to you and others find you fascinating for that reason. A sophisticated quality in you appeals to them. All kinds of secrets may be revealed when you are open and receptive to intuitive guidance.

There is something playful and carefree about your attitude toward family or neighbors. People are sharing in ways which promote good will and happiness. Gifts are the order of the day. There is plenty to sustain you and immediate plans; enough.

The community bestows honors on those who uphold high ideals for it. You are equipped with everything you need and may feel there is too much to handle. You sense what is significant and discover amazing things when alone or when interacting with neighbors or co-workers. Light dawns when needed.

Pleasure is enhanced while Venus separates (slowly) from her opposition with Saturn and conjoins Jupiter. A special individual you enjoy may separate you from society in general while you share something of interest to the two of you. Much is done to link various places in covert ways so that prosperity attends travel or commerce.

Forecast for Tuesday 3 May 2011

Tuesday 3 May 2011

\The Simple Logic of Events/

Since the moon is void-of-course all day, you may find yourself drifting in unusual directions. One could be solitude. You need a space in which to contemplate things at a deep level.

A kind of justice and squareness, fair play, is working out among friends, at home or near, with an international flavor. Interesting things emerge to get your attention in surprising ways even if their value is merely symbolic or friendly.

When it is hard or impossible to follow out the plans you have made, you can reconnoiter and find a workable improvised plan. You care about your appearance and may spend some time sprucing up.

There are heavy objects to be moved, it seems. The heaviness and labor is a means toward escaping from one situation into another.

Someone who wants something from you may beg for it directly or indirectly. You feel you have a right to grant or deny the request. You are comprehending things from more than one viewpoint and that is good for business or career.

The simple things are good, such as cultivating the earth's bounty. There is also the passive beauty of those who are learning in an accepting and humble manner. It is invigorating to dance with potentials forming themselves gradually and gently.

\Diligence/

The killing of bin Laden is not something I want to comment on at present, except to say: 1. During any Dark Hermetic Epoch, "old business" or past karma is prominent and is taken care of in ways we usually don't like. 2. When the moon is void of course, as it was today apparently when the assassination took place, often things are ended. I have said these are good times to take out the trash. Also I believe there are more "endings" of relationships or jobs or whatnot at such times. 3. The moon was void-of-course in Aries, the sign of Mars, the military sign, with five other planets. Aries or Ares the warrior came through in a big way. 4. Saturn in Libra the sign of justice among other things is of course accentuated as it has been for a long time, and is retrograde, suggesting "retributive" justice. But before you cheer this, consider what manifestations of justice might rock your own life. Those who cheer what looks like justice destroying another are asking for that same justice to rock them.

I do not cheer the death of any human being. What would be cause for cheering is rather the conversion of one human being away from a belief in violence or terrorism as a viable solution to anything. That would be worth far more than bin Laden's death. And that death is helpful to the world only if it turns people from terrorism, not if it makes more terrorists.

Monday: It is not necessary to be selfish or self-centered in order to attain your goals. Certain things are impossible to figure out and all you can do is let them be. What you can do is organize and prepare the baggage of your life for fresh journeys.

Apparent loss of friendship stems from some kind of dissipation in which you have indulged. It is important to sort out evil from good and choose the latter. Accepting responsibility in a quiet way is your reticent strength.

Play can be of the right or wrong sort: the latter has foolish or harmful results. Fortunately it seems that there is sufficient gain for you to feel secure. Good fortune turns up in ways which reassure.

Choosing whom and what to trust will help if your choices are careful and wise. That would prevent serious consequences of a dangerous alliance. Diligence in carrying out duties, or self-assigned tasks, is a remedy for every ill.
