}Simple Attempts Make Everything Better{

Sharp and clear cogitation about business and money is possible. This could be both optimistic and shrewd, so that (a) you do not get lost in wishful thinking but also (b) you refuse to think so negatively that you lock yourself out of opportunities.

Those interested in publishing, or other kinds of promotion, may feel the path is blocked, yet this is not entirely true. The Dark Hermetic Epoch (through December 13) is good for at least considering multiple possibilities, although not being in a hurry to inaugurate any one of them unless it is so utterly clear and straightforward that you can hardly resist it. No need to rush, yet no reason not to consider possibilities.

During this two-day period there are dangers from being indifferent. You might feel there is no reason to fret about anything and then give up too soon on what you need to accomplish for your security and well-being. It's important to finish something useful before giving yourself a reward. If you take the reward first you may drift into misfortune.

Loneliness is more than possible. Everyone wonders why he or she is lonely, when it happens, and the first answer is usually self-blame. That is natural. It is hard to break the ice with anyone new and the attempt can be frustrating. Does it end in failure? Maybe neither is to blame. It's the way things are for that moment. Probably doing your regular or self-assigned work will bring you good human connections better than anything else at this point. At least it will set you up for a frame of mind which is more sociable.

You can keep on presenting yourself as you wish to present yourself. Are you doing that with an image of yourself which others can appreciate, understand, or respect? Perhaps that is something you could work on. The question "What do you do?" is frightening sometimes to those who do not feel they are doing anything very impressive. Maybe you could practice answering that question in your mind, until you come up with answers which make you feel good about yourself.

It's a good time to adjust your way of thinking about yourself and your life to (a) the real situation and (b) your ideals. By keeping a balance between the two you will fly ahead with the real situation, winged by your ideals.

Peace in your community is possible. People have anxieties now, as much as or more than you do, but cooperating with them on the simplest little things lightens the gloom. Sometimes that is all that is needed.
