Forecast for Thursday 13 October 2011

Thursday 13 October 2011

\Coping with the Difficult Third/

Sometimes life seems a great weariness. This is usually (not always) within the period I have called, for years, "the difficult third of the week" and marked off as follows: |the difficult or trying third of the week|. I stopped doing that because it seemed nobody cared. I wonder if anyone intelligent reads these forecasts? Because if you were intelligent you would see how accurate that |hard third of the week| forecast was, every week, and perhaps tell me how it helped you. No. Nobody said a word. I wonder sometimes who I am writing for, and why.

Nevertheless, for myself and G*d I shall return to mentioning the |difficult or hard or whatever (I use various words but always put it within |these| markers) third of each week|, because it helps me enormously. This time it extended from Monday at 11:36a PT | 2:36p ET | 6:36p UT until Thursday at 9:07a PT | 12:07p ET | 4:07p UT. So, if you are reading this Wednesday evening, you are still in it; if you read it Thursday morning you are almost but not quite out of it. Mark this. Watch it. Think about it every week. I will continue to mention it every week. You will see what it means for you if you are observant.

This time it lasted almost three days. That is rare. I have given the exact percentage of its occurrence before, several times, which probably nobody noticed, but shall not calculate it at this moment. It is a little more than one-third of the time, I think about 35 per cent, less than two-and-a-half days per week (on average). That leaves about two-thirds of the time for less wearing, disturbing, fatiguing, disappointing experiences. Of course it does not always hit Tuesday-Wednesday as it has been lately. It moves gradually earlier so that in a few weeks it will hit Sunday-Monday, then Friday-Saturday, and so on.

How should you gear yourself up for these periods? That is completely up to you, but I usually offer suggestions each week. If you watch these periods you will sense strategies for coping with them which work in your own case.

Usually more, or harder, work is required. Things "go wrong" more often during those periods. People are moodier and edgier. You might experiment with avoiding social connections intended to be for sheer fun, parties or the like, at these times, because they often turn sour, but there are no hard-and-fast rules. Occasionally you might attend a social event or meet someone and have a wonderful experience during these times. But emphasize "occasionally."

Likewise, they are not usually good times to ask the boss for a raise (if anyone ever does that during this peculiar economic period), apply for a job, agree to a contract, and so on. You can explore such options during this time but usually it would be better to slow down in your decision-making until you are sure. Sometimes, of course, one of these periods could be the perfect time to take a job, agree to something, get a new place or whatnot. Again, no absolute rules; but emphasize "sometimes."

Of course, "life goes on." You might find these excellent times to concentrate, focus, get important things done. These are crucial periods. They are karmic. You have to pay up, fork something over to the cosmos for the privilege of having a body on Terra. Usually that means finishing something to which you are committed, or keeping on with it, rather than beginning anything new.

I have run out of time for today's forecast, but what I have just written could be extremely important for you. I will give you next week's |emotionally hard or karmically difficult or concentrating-on-essentials| period: beginning Tuesday, October 18 at 5:44a PT | 8:44a ET | 12:44p UT (all times except UT in Daylight Savings Time for now) and extending until Thursday, October 20 at 1:59p PT | 4:59p ET | 8:59p UT. That means virtually all of Tuesday and Wednesday next week, and Thursday until mid- or late-afternoon. (Somewhat later in Europe or India, as you can calculate easily.)

The rest of the time, beginning by noon today in the Western Hemisphere, is good for fun, parties, vacations, the beach, hanging out, enjoying yourself . . . I wish :>)
