The crown he wears does not prevent the sharp stiletto's
thrust. He stumbles up logged stairs toward a blooming lawn.
The lady offering solace and a drink could compromise his
patriot heart. He prostrates before her lawful mandate.

\Defensive yet Enticing Interaction/
People learn to submit to one another in interesting ways. This can be erotically, or in business, or just a certain playful pseudo-submission. That is cute or enticing. It could be bondage, or a broad participation in one's culture which bows to that culture's expectations.

The distinction between the worldly and the spiritual seems strong, while four planets are in Pisces the sign of sometimes impractical other-worldliness. While in the |difficult third of the week| it is often well to emphasize the spiritual because the practical is in transition, hard to grasp or beyond manipulation.
Your sensibilities are intense, so you are impressionable. You could give in to someone readily. This might be a thrill, or a pain.

Being reserved is a form of self-defense, not a bad idea part of the time. Yet you are hopeful, and signs of Spring are either visible or sensed intuitively, as trees and plants feel them.

Rashness, almost amounting to violence, is possible when you get ahead of yourself. So much seems possible that when anything stands in your way you feel it as an enemy to be pushed aside with no concern for its welfare. It would be well to be cooler and more deliberate. You might also observe tendencies like that in a young male who has not learned how to temper overweening desire.

Military personnel and commanders may feel strong and confident of victory. The flush of youth is in them no matter their age. They are trying to be upright and straightforward with needed strategies and defenses.

Older people may feel, no matter their problems, that solid gain--acquisition of possessions, pleasures, and merits--is in the near future.

The perhaps Italian or Italic gentleman we have mentioned may be obnoxious because pushing himself forward aggressively and carelessly. This could precipitate a crisis. You need to straighten out and fly right to prevent a fall.

Aiding the sick or needy is admirable, and a healthy tendency with so many planets in Pisces. You feel you have a mandate to do what is right. It requires sacrifice, for which you understand the necessity, so you do it with justified pride.

Prostrating yourself before another human being, female or male, can be thrilling, or dangerous, or commendable within limits. Suffering within brings forth strangely erotic tendencies which are inexplicable logically. People fall toward each other as if giving up to fate. This could happen at a community event where people are more or less judging one another while pushed closely against one another. There could be red faces colored by surprising attractions.

Friday 15 March 2013
Sun in Pisces and Moon in Taurus
Moon on course
|Karmically difficult or sobering third| of this week
continues all day until Saturday afternoon

The nation's flag colors its map. Young soldiers set their
fletches to the strings. The target is pierced, the
armor secure. The briars around the well keep it
clean and clear. The sage who studies there dispenses wisdom.
 
\Stalwart Allies/
You are able to exploit factors you understand well, with which you are thoroughly familiar, as your nation's and family's habits and predilections. You fit right in when you want to, as a basis for projecting yourself toward big wins you envision.

In fact, you are focused brilliantly and concentrated effectively. When you aim at a target you hit the bull's eye. Since Mercury is still retrograde until Sunday, it is wise to make your targets those you have thoroughly decided on, not speculative and new.

If out in a natural setting for a while, even if it's crisp and cold, secrets of nature could be revealed.

If feeling timid about some things, that is natural in the |difficult third of the week|, yet you have a clever facility in using whatever turns up, and ending up on top of things as if admired by all.

It is good to be sure you know what your opposition is, and how much of it there is, for you could underestimate it. You seem propelled by a magic power, but it is not omnipotent, and you should take account shrewdly of your chances of winning any particular encounter.

You can break down opposition, and dwell in safety, even if those you need to win over are younger or more virile. There is power in wisdom, for eyes that see in the dark are protected from untoward happenings. Mysteries you have studied bring you unsought popularity, for some there are who sense that you could give them much from your store of lore.

You may want to contend with some, when you feel completely right. It would be well to be conscious of your purpose in doing this; otherwise you could speak a wrong word or make a wrong gesture which brings on a crisis. This could be with a young person, probably male, who is also sure of himself and irritated by your cocksureness.

Someone hopeful and inspiring could aid you, healing your wounds and worries. This might be someone in the spirit world, most likely female (insofar as those in the spirit world have sex, probably determined mostly by our perception of them). You are sensitive to this help and so can attract and facilitate it.

When backed up by your country or family, your ancestry or the group by which you define yourself, you are very powerful, perhaps invulnerable. The old and young join together, at least subconsciously, in this invisible comradeship of loyalty, tradition, and community solidarity. It could secure friends and allies of a stalwart sort.
