\Plodding On/
There
is much practicality. People are willing to do what they have been
doing, in their particular sphere of service or job, without complaining
much. The workingman has been idolized (by Marxists) and idealized (by
Christians also) and we just celebrated "his" and her day. So now it is
back to work. Sticking to hard labor for the sake of an employer (and
oneself) may seem unimaginative, but how would the world's economy and
life go on without those individuals? They hold things together by their
daily toil, for themselves and the rest of us.
And so there is
no need for high flights of fancy or romanticism. Venus has no aspects
but her square with Saturn, which has been expounded here. Love life may
seem dreary or nonexistent.
The sphere of the intellect, of
information and understanding, may seem barren also, but the attempt to
keep learning will be rewarded. Those who are slower may be more
thorough, tortoises who outstrip the rabbit who tries too much too fast.
Students may note that "authorities" disagree, and have to struggle
over that. Which one is right? Maybe nobody knows? Or maybe one has to
choose the authority one believes as best one can.
The moon
opposite Mars on Tuesday-Wednesday, in the fixed signs Taurus-Scorpio,
suggests this kind of plodding or slogging on. Maybe the laborer even
has to wait patiently for his pay, or recognition, and keep on working
so he will get it later.
The grand trine in earth signs (only
while the moon remains in Taurus) does suggest some good fortune with
money and material things, even if less than one had hoped. People are
also attending to health needs, as through diet and exercise. Keeping
the body in trim is quiet satisfaction.
The moon will be
void-of-course for almost a day and a half (as shown above). Later on
Wednesday and almost all of Thursday are times to let yourself be free
of anxieties, because you could worry needlessly about too much. Not
everything can be firmly encapsulated at such times. Attending to needs
using skills is necessary. However, there has to be room for the
peculiar or unexplained. There can be room also for the spontaneous and
joyful, if you get in the right mood, because on Thursday the moon will
trine Venus, increasing into the evening. This may not be ecstatic but could be a good time to free yourself for a relaxed time of
enjoyment. You might visit a place you don't usually go.
There
are times when it seems impossible to overcome divisions between people
deriving from rivalry, envy, or misunderstanding. This could be one of
them. Ultimately, we have no "enemies" but ourselves, according to laws
of karma; but temporarily we face discord and could be victims of
someone's low desires or jealousy. You don't have to fear this but could
be alert to it, and protect yourself with right thoughts of harmony
and, yes, love, however impossible that might seem. Sri Aurobindo
describes the spiritually advanced soul as "one who could love without
return for love." And the rewards for this are often more concrete than
one would suspect.
