|Karmically difficult or sobering third| of this week continues

He primps before a mirror; she laughs at his vanity; suggests a skullcap.
They need not struggle--the road looks long and inviting. Such ease.
What is the quest? Knowledge beckons from way down paths which 
Diverge. A bridge is building on one; the other sprinkled with gold dust.

\Maintaining Good Fortune/

As I write I feel a somewhat "sloggy" quality to the time, even reflected in weather, and this has to do with the sun and Mercury opposing Neptune (exact now, close for a few more days). I have noted that this coincides with a "sleepy" time when one would rather drift and dream. It can be morose or just contemplative. One wants to "knit up the tangled sleeves of care." But this should not prevent us from continuing with our forward press in the world--in projects, whatever they be, for the Bright Hermetic Epoch remains at its peak and today Luna gives us smooth aspects except for the opposition with Saturn, which is emotionally hard but can be good for work.

The long, hard pull is encouraged. We tend to fall away from effort. Of course if you choose Sunday as your Sabbath, you have a reason to abstain. Yet escaping from hard conditions is possible only through building appropriate channels of opportunity.

Whatever is fortunate for you could lull you into too much ease. You do not have to slave-drive yourself, but at least an intellectual quest for understanding is very good now, promoting your best interests in a versatile, knowledge-gaining manner.

There could be an emphasis on beauty and art. You could make something, create something, use your hands to form something reflective of love. The details of it take form surprisingly when you give your heart to it.

Hopeful experiment plays into research of things which seem essential to you. Some of this may be for sheer knowledge and understanding, and some for practical purposes, ways of managing or increasing prosperity, which you can do successfully.

When contradictions appear, you can reconcile or balance them. It is not always necessary to arrive at absolute or inflexible positions about things, only to make effective judgments after considering both sides. Then you can rule your world accordingly.

The superficial, foolish, self-flattering side of human beings might make its appearance. Some cling to their vanity as an evasion of anything requiring dedication. Yet just a little of the latter can lead to fortuitous gain and success beyond one's expectation.

Monday 26 August 2013

Sun in Virgo, Assimilation; Moon in Taurus, Peace; Fortuna in 9, Understanding

|Karmically intense or sobering third| of this week continues until Tuesday afternoon

Is a new continent forming to the west? An old one in your mind?
The country ways of country folk in fields of gold renew inheritance.
A marble pillar is the man who gave his life for wealth, yet in his gaze
A star sparkles above spring flowers as well as autumn leaves. 

\Ancestors Alive/

There does not have to be constant turmoil and upset. There are so many potentials to activate that you might find yourself unsure which way to go. You want to do something original. At the same time there is enchantment through beauty and daydreaming, childlikeness.

Scientific perception and invention are possibilities, with a continuing Uranian emphasis and the sun joined to Mercury. Machinery or chemicals might become interesting. There are poetry, fine sensibilities, and links with an artistic or refined family line through marriage or partnership.

Genius calls to you through someone notable. He or she seems able to do anything, juggling life, displaying cleverness. You might discover something by going west of your usual location.

Do you know someone rural, or did you grow up in such a setting? Anyway, you could connect with or get media information about someone simple but solid and straightforward like the best of country folk. That is an inspiration in your quest for fulfillment and reasonable gain.

A conservative background is an asset. Some depart from their "boring" ancestry for fresh adventures, yet return at some point to the proved values of their old families. An elderly woman or man may ponder reality beyond this lifetime, self-assured in the darkness of the unknown.

There is always hope for those who have made a bad match. It had its purpose. So does solitariness, when that is appropriate. Some turn from the bitterness of failed relationship and find solace in the quest for wealth. Rare is the one who escape's Midas's destiny, rich and also loved.
