~A Deviating Approach to Success~

The threatened shutdown of the government because of debt-ceiling negotiations etc. is typical of the "fall" of the sun in Libra, sign of the autumnal equinox. The major downturns of the stock market, when they have been huge ones, have occurred during this time of the year. I do not think that will happen this time although the Market seems to be stagnating until there is a resolution of the budget questions. The Dark Hermetic Epoch beginning Tuesday does make things dicey, but stock prices do not routinely go down during a Dark Epoch. Their very largest drops, however, have been during those Epochs. Just because of general information on the recovering economy, I do not think that will happen this time. Generally the Market improves at Thanksgiving time.

The square between Jupiter and Uranus, commented upon here frequently as an all-summer phenomenon, continues and is important because it is the defining square in a vise-shaped chart--the rest of the sky filled with planets except for the empty square which is the object gripped by the "vise" in this symbolism. Jupiter bites into Uranus--conventional religious and philosophic assumptions bite into the individual who is thinking for himself--and Uranus bites into Jupiter, the thinking individual challenges conventional religious or moral ideas. This is obviously happening in the Catholic Church in a big way thanks to the independent, unorthodox or "liberal" (Uranus) statements of Pope Francis. It is happening elsewhere in obvious or more subtle ways. People are reconciling their individual beliefs and approaches with the way things are in the world of religion, spirituality, mores and philosophy, one way or another. That tends to be conflict originally, then reconciliation gradually, in accord with Hegelian dialectics. 

Saturday:
People in power positions tend to be sensitive or emotional; you are making things smooth with them as best you can. Interests and concerns are intensified (moon square Mercury). The dominant individual uses the worker for good purposes, let us hope.

Busy-ness, conversation, and reporting are going on in a big way. This is "of the moment," but books you love have been around for a long time. You can deal with individuals who are reclusive or misanthropic in a way which soothes them.

Questions of how to reconcile duties with your personal wishes and tendencies are important. There is always an answer. It might look like you are dodging duties in a derelict manner, but you may come back to them in time. Meanwhile you luxuriate.

You feel noble when it comes to reconciling a male and a female, whether you are one of them or not. You use philosophy and knowledge to do this, at least in your mind. Another side of you, indifferent, wants to enjoy music or other relaxing pleasures.

You are not giving up on what is important. You are willing to work at it. The word "honor" as the focus of Fortuna is significant, but you can be playful and sarcastic even while upholding honor or position. Strong attractions, however, might end in a "fall." 

The morale of workers is important, even if they are intellectual workers or professionals. You can bring people together through your beneficent influence. You could heal discord as a peace-maker, whether intentionally or not.

You could push ahead eagerly to settle something, make a deal, show that you are acclaimed. You appreciate a coach, even though you feel bold and independent and want to be free. You could be beneficially intoxicated by your ambitions and hopes.

Sunday 29 September 2013

Sun in Libra, Equivalence; Moon in Leo, Glory; Fortuna in 11, Friends

/moon goes void-of-course (for 27 minutes) at 0:31a PT | 3:31a ET | 7:31a UT
until it enters Leo at 0:58a PT | 3:58a ET | 7:58a UT

|Karmically intense or sobering third| of this week continues (until early Tuesday)


*Compulsion Toward Failure or Slow Success*

Your relation to the public is on your mind, through favor or disfavor, and you fear the latter. (Congressmen ought to.) But you can be deft in estimating hopes and wishes and dealing with deeper concerns of friends who want to display their best selves.

Study is important and fruitful. What you know and understand determines your well-being. Old reliable books and teachings help. Kindly feelings, affections or attractions facilitate mental endeavor by pulling you to the right contacts for learning.

Those who feel neglected have to make their own way in the world with few resources. They may become enterprising, of necessity. It is possible to prosper and gain a great deal, although the |difficult third| is famous for delays and roadblocks.

Artistic and musical interests and pursuits are favored during the whole month of Libra. Yet today, going with that, is a sharp desire to assert yourself so that your ideas, opinions and privileges are heeded.  You can assure that if genteel and not irritable.

Those who pretend to be other than they are (such as certain "lawmakers") may succeed for a while but if tricky they meet their downfall. There are also allurements through sex, which have been responsible for wrecked careers. 

Eating or drinking too much of the wrong thing obviously affects health. There can be peculiar upsets or imbroglios through forming bonds with the wrong person at the wrong time. To get to the right partnerships requires patient conformity to what is best.

There is a desire to be directed. Is this a desire in yourself or the one you're with? Maybe both? It can be interesting. Some will get intoxicated with self-importance. (Congressmen.) Then they are compelled to fall from level to level of failure until they wake up to what is real and important.
