Forecast: Saturday and Sunday, 8-9 June, 2013

Saturday 8 June, 2013

Sol in Gemini, Vivification; Luna in Gemini, Joy; Fortuna in 1, Focus

[Moon on course, no lunar problems]
New Moon of Gemini is exact at 8:57a PT | 11:57a ET | 3:57p UT


A boy dejected sits on a rock near to tears while a woman
Rejected covers her breast with her hair. There is nothing
In the sky. A crier announces gossip. A hawker displays
Tinsel stars. The well's depths refresh. Some begin to dance.

1  At a time when so much seems exciting, housekeeping might seem pointless, but you might find that getting some things about your home or headquarters in order would facilitate everything else. Devils may be cast out of details so that angels can enter them. Uninhibited sharing in a gregarious way can happen. You sense merit in everyone.

2  People overhearing you, or such unguarded incidents, could make them feel uneasy about you. It is wise to avoid gossip, and make talking about anyone an exercise in charity. People feel released at this New Moon, ready to undertake remarkable things and expend themselves. What is sudden or unexpected could be shocking at first; then seen as an awakening to enlarged horizons.

3  We do not have to understand everything to be competent and enjoy life. Some implicit sense of continuity in commercial life or business is protecting you even if you don't grasp exactly all the complexities--providing you are an honest steward of what you have. Long, slow processes are beginning to pay off.

4  You appropriate things or styles which make you feel good about yourself, and then wonder if that is an illusion. You could slip into melancholy. The apparent destruction or loss of something or someone makes you feel dependent on the Supreme. Well, you are. 

5  Winds of adversity may be blowing, but you have faced them before. Desertion and dejection are more apparent than real, though this be hard to realize. Venus trine both Neptune and Saturn can be a detached melancholy which is ready to submit to fate insofar as that is unavoidable. Yet there is a New Moon, and optimism from other facets of the daily setup. So you could become willing to release what you must, to be ready for what can enfold you in fresh happiness.

6  What was promising once may seem to have been taken from you. The promise has faded. Or has it? You turn to what is artificial and decorative in order to escape pondering what seems missing. Yet there is a logical development of issues in your life which is not blind or inimical fate but an intelligent process working out. 

7  Overwhelming potentialities are accompanied by overwhelming shocks. But there is self-renewal; you remain yourself. You could be inept about loyalties, risking the loss of someone for the sake of a thrill with someone else. A transformation you are going through does not have to be awkward or dangerous. You may succumb to worldly seductions; a secret attachment. Yet nothing allows it to be secret. All gather round the well when they need water and no one can hide. There is assured recompense for all the unsettling things going on in your consciousness. You are acquiring poise deeply beyond self-conscious calculation.

As one who watching over men left blind
Takes up the load of an unwitting race,
Harbouring a foe whom with her heart she must feed,
Unknown her act, unknown the doom she faced,
Unhelped she must foresee and dread and dare.
--Sri Aurobindo, Savitri, p. 8


Sunday 9 June 2013

Sun in Gemini, Vivification; Moon in Cancer, Peace; Fortuna in 1, Fresh Focus

Two men stand in a fertile valley, talking of that which listeners
Count nothing. One has bridled a horse. A gypsy emerges from the 
Forest. A lawyer observes and calculates. A moon-struck woman
Argues her point outrageously. A little girl reaches for a fish. 


~The Mystery of Outrageous Contentment~



1  Somebody interesting to you has the aura of a juggler or magician. You can't get him (or her) out of your mind. He is always trying to justify himself and guarantee that he will be accepted as he wishes.

2  Someone else has a lawyer or detective quality, as if trying to see through people and find out what could be wrong. He is self-sufficient, exploitative, free. He acts only after accurate calculation; then expends himself gallantly.

3  Someone important to you has serious problems, perhaps connected with alcohol or drugs, but has another side which wants to labor continuously at tasks or crafts which will bring satisfying recognition.

4  If someone is missing, or you feel melancholy for other reasons, you may give in to some inclinations which are a way of escape. Psychologically, this could be good for you.

5  Things which have seemed ruinous in your life may have put you in a bad place, in some regards, yet you believe in your visions and can anchor yourself to individuals who have material success as well as spiritual ambitions. They have influence in mysterious ways. If you truckle to that, you may be led into strange paths, whether for good or not.

6  Those with strange powers--as in the X men or multitudes of movies and TV series--may come into your awareness. Nobody knows what to do with these people or how to react to them. If they are absorbed in the trivial and artificial, you may assume they themselves are trivial and artificial. However, they pull off amazing feats successfully after elaborate maneuvers.

7  Have you known people who are content to be just who they are? How refreshing! They are faithful to themselves and so to others. Their natural goodness is heart-wealth and eventually brings material wealth as well. Their recompense is continuing to be, in happy association with others who like them are humble and content with what life has given them.
