 *Responsible Not Irresponsible Pleasure*

People are vulnerable. Things you wanted to develop do not seem to have reached maturity nor is there any assurance that they shall. Being a beneficiary to others is perhaps the best one can desire.

We observe things from a high level but are not sure that our observation can produce any lasting effect or change them. There are obstacles and delays, in spades. Yet there are delights one can share with some few individuals at appropriate times.

The Part of Fortune in the 5th, yesterday and today, accents youthful amusements and fun. This may have been hard to fit into your working schedule but most did that one way or another--by hook or by crook--yesterday, and probably today also. 

Yet the helpful trine of the sun with Saturn brings out a determination to be practical, realistic, and firm to commitments. Combining that with the prior paragraph's indications is an interesting trick, an assignment of the day.

Separations are often felt when the moon opposes Venus, accented also by the beginning of the |difficult third| of this week. At worst one could ricochet from one desperate maneuver to another, hoping for quick fulfillment and postponing difficult issues. 

There could be lack of discretion and even disgrace. One could be impulsive and headstrong (Jupiter square Uranus and opposed to Pluto). You have been doing something with your mind which looks heroic, achieving something through study or careful thought and analysis (Mercury still square Saturn). That is all to the good and keeping on with it is a good use of Mercury's gathering momentum, although since we remain in the Dark Hermetic Epoch until the 20th, there remains some uncertainty about some of your conclusions. You have been able to see a lot through difficult mental work but may not have the whole picture yet. 

Reflecting on everything coolly is recommended in order to avoid falling a victim to your vulnerable feelings. A "cut and run" tendency is dangerous--you do not want to do that to a friend, so hold back. Sudden explosive feelings could damage a friendship or relationship. This need not happen. 

There is prematurity in some things and it is hard to take the slowness with which they improve, yet if you keep believing in the improvement you will be promoting it rather than throwing it overboard. You can be charitable toward those who need assistance, patient and strong. This is being a real man or woman. Then there will be some easy delights of life to make everything easier, because you will have earned them.
