Sun in Virgo, Assimilation; Moon in Pisces, Love; Fortuna in 6, Adjustment
Moon on course, moving toward Full early tomorrow
Dream-lightning crashes and cruises the bedroom,
Revealing inadequate answers, lost horizons.
Afterward only a night light guides the sight to
A toothbrush, blunt tool of practical survival.

The importance of both the |difficult third of the week| and the /moon void-of-course was demonstrated yesterday in one tragic incident, that of the man who went berserk and killed twelve at the Navy Yard in Washington. The fact that these are special times with special problems or issues is the reason I list them at the beginning of these forecasts. I hope you are learning how to use them. For me, yesterday, with the moon v-of-c all day and the |difficult third| until evening, I had the following issues: 1. Spotify was crashing every time I deleted a track from a playlist. This continued all day and wasted countless minutes of my time. It had never happened before. My complaint to Spotify produced no response, naturally. 2. An online account was posting wrong information, and it took me nearly a half hour to straighten it out, finally by going to another online source which had the correct information. In both of these cases, someone else's "bad" was my problem. 3. A correspondent and I got into a tiff about what should have been minor matters but seemed major because of the amount of time they were consuming. 4. When I went grocery shopping, the line I usually use was having problems, people waiting; so I used another line but got into a fowl mood because of the unusual problems and the wait, and noted that others were likewise annoyed. None of these things were tragic, but they were time-consuming and frustrating. Knowing about the v-of-c and the |difficult third| definitely helped me to get through all this with more equanimity. I hope you will find that happening also for yourself if you take account of these periods.
Incidentally, the events of 9/11/01 occurred while the moon was v-of-c and also in the |difficult third| of that week. I have said repeatedly over the years that if police departments would take account of the |difficult third| (which none of them know about unless somebody somewhere is reading Cosmic Piper and using these forecasts for that purpose) they might deter a lot of crimes or accidents. I am not sure how; maybe by having more on duty at those times or issuing alerts or being extra cautious in other ways. More crimes and accidents occur in the |difficult third| of the week. More accidents occur during the /v-of-c times. (Perhaps crimes also although I have not noticed that as often; perhaps suicides.)
Wednesday: Neither of those situations is present, although Venus's exact conjunction with Saturn confers a serious brooding mood.
That mood could make you self-pitying, but also considerate of others who are suffering in some unexplained way. People will not wear their suffering hearts on their sleeves unless you give them to know that you are a willing listener to their problems. You can be tactful.
"Little things" in speech could cause more trouble than you would have imagined. So it is well to consider that people are super-touchy and avoid the tiniest objectionable statement or implication. They may see you as silly, irresponsible, or tactless even if you are sincere.
"What will really help me?" seems the question in all minds. There is intolerance of anything but practical answers. Opinions seem valueless. Makeshifts seem more satisfying than real but intangible solutions. Extending yourself for those less mature may be hard yet gratifying.
Going north of home or place of employment could be fortunate. There can be forcefulness and pioneering in ways not evident on the surface. Yet others need to assert themselves also. Remembering this can save you grief. Letting them speak while retaining your prerogatives quietly could be the best way.
People feel orphaned and desolate. Those who pretend to care seem actually uncaring. Those who seem cold and unsympathetic are trying to recover from cold and unsympathetic treatment. They may feel blunt and awkward. The Full Moon can grant healing, uplifting insight.
The eternal and the temporal do not clash, though their interaction be metaphysically and metalogically indecipherable until we develop the spiritual faculties which comprehend it. So did both Hegel and Sri Aurobindo, and perhaps Blavatsky, in my opinion. Their works remain darkness to most, because the latter give up study too easily.
However, some who are ingenuous and simple-hearted can comprehend things beyond any words they could utter. The absence of a strong spiritually parenting influence in their lives drives them to find truths for themselves no matter how inchoate and preliminary yet effective.

He jumps to the challenge, ready for a fight,
Sees the Other as confused and lost; decides
To give it all a rest. There is plenty to enjoy
In this place, but someone needs a rescue.
There is force of character, but perhaps too much attempt to force your attentions on someone who pulls back. Or someone may be doing that to you. The zeal of a personal project could be overweening and cause disruption.
Your mind may leap to conclusions which make no sense. This is Mercury square Jupiter. You can control that, and think more broadly but also without superstition or jumping on assumptions without good reason. You can face disagreements about religion and spirituality wisely if you calm down.
Superficiality in love turns you off. If people are pleasing in appearance, or witty, but have nothing more to offer, you pull away. You may turn to deeper issues, such as the safety--physical or spiritual--of those you care about. Someone may need to be rescued in one way or another.
People have an urge to shake one another up. This could be through mocking or taunting. The motives for this are mixed--envy, revenge, or "sheer cussedness." Trying to see it as a game or sport might help--retorting in kind but with a humorous rather than morbid twist. (Humor laughs at everyone's faults and not just those of the target.) If your material blessings inspire you to be generous, that is all to the good.
One hard feature of the day is a slowness or indefiniteness, a gloom or inertia which seems fatalistic, not inclined to make any effort. At best, this is a germination period. You may feel you are "a person apart," not fitting in with others' opinions or beliefs, with no resolution in sight.
Mental sharpness is a bright spot. Your mind could be incisive in debate or discussion. This could lead to a battle of sorts unless well-moderated. You are not really insecure but might feel so at times. Using your skills splendidly is a partial or total remedy for many worries.
