Message III
There is a desire to codify or make definite and certain anything you are concerned about. This could include paperwork, writing, editing, budgeting, and financial records. You have a gift now for doing this accurately and staying with it until it is done right.

Mysteries can be solved. Anyone whom you look to as teacher, guide, expert or authority is likely to be shining in your mind and helping you in a strong way to get your thinking and living in order. It seems that very few in any generation are given such authoritative directive or guiding capacity, and when we know of one we do well to heed his or her directives.

You might look to natural scenery around you, whether bodies of water, mountains, or winter views, and let it uplift you into "the peace that passeth understanding." That helps you carry on peaceably with whatever you are trying to do.

There can be secrecy, because you know some things are better left unmentioned. This could be in personal life but also in business or government service. Mute lips often protect deep planning which would upset the applecart if others knew about it. This is not furtive but peaceably reasonable, a matter of minding one's own careful business. Your future is depending on you to do that.

Message II
We are reaching toward the ineffable. You might realize this when sitting quietly. You might feel your mind does not know where to go for anchorage. What is real? This is not an idly curious or philosophically theoretical question but a deeply spiritual one. Not philosophers of analysis and complex logic but existential and religious thinkers grope toward answers we need.

It is well not to lose your focus, whatever it be. A scattered, loose, almost insane mental miasma could set in and make you feel that nothing is secure, and as a result you could feel lost and make mistakes. You know you are not an idiot, but may need to look to the "directive authorities" of Message III for secure orientation. This might be specially true Friday. A sense of values will help. You know what things are worth, or can sense it, as if inspecting items for sale and selecting among them. This subtle sense can guide you past confusion so that you choose what is best.

The need for direction does not mean you want to be ordered around by anyone; in fact you would resent that. You take readings from them and get orientation from them but know you have to make your own decisions (moon in Aries). If you feel you cannot do this you might cop out or drop out of some demanding activity, claiming that you are not up to it or feeling that you cannot "hack it." Pulling back or sitting down and resting prayerfully for a period might help.

People are not entirely secure in their emotional lives. They may be feeling lost, lonely, abandoned: in need of a loving parent. Religious devotion can heal such suffering, for many, or else an imaginative link with someone you trust and cherish. For the lucky, this can be an actual person. However, you may feel that he or she is there for you only sometimes. When not, then you have to muse upon her or him as from a distance and be content with that.

Message I
Instruction you get can be very necessary, yet not complete. Therefore you have to use your latent discernment to learn what you can from it and figure out the rest yourself. To put it simply, no one has all the answers. Yet you can find those you need if you seek and try, not judging yourself or anyone else harshly because they have only a partial knowledge of what is needed. You learn from them, yourself, and the situation, as if cooking up a recipe you have to improvise or making a chemical experiment.

How much can you help people, feed them, nurture them, without getting lost in side issues which don't help anyone? You may ask yourself this. They depend on you, and you want to be dependable. You know that being dependable for them means someone will be dependable for you when you need such help. You may over-analyze the psychology involved. You may wonder why people are needing help, or resent the fact that they are. Someone may sense this in you and wonder what your motives are or if you really care or are merely pretending. Being charitable is hard, or can bring up issues we don't want to face. Who is judging you? Yourself. When you find yourself judging others harshly, perhaps they are also judging you. We see into one another's weaknesses and hypocrisies. Rather than run from all this, if you face it patiently you will make much spiritual growth and learn something about how to interact with human beings when the chips are down and you need to be both tolerant and resolute.
