Forecast: Thursday 17 and Friday 18 April 2014

Thursday 17 April 2014

Sun in Aries; Moon in Scorpio-->Sagittarius; Foci in 8, Regeneration and 5, Offspring and Pleasure

|Karmically difficult or sobering third| of this week continues
/moon goes void-of-course at 0:10a PT | 3:10a ET | 7:10a UT  **
until it enters Sagittarius at 2:45p PT | 5:45p ET | 9:45p UT  ***

^Persistence, with Benefits^

It's a rare occasion when I would give a three-star rating during a |difficult third|. This time I do (for later in the day) because of the trine of Venus and Jupiter now exact. This can be ease, laziness, glory, a blessing of the cosmos on even our weaknesses. 

In minor ways, things change or seem unreliable. Yet success beckons graciously through smooth connections including a fortunate marriage or partnership. 

The harder side of things is with us, and it is well to beware of any kind of violence brewing anywhere (Mars going backward toward opposing Uranus). Even Mars and Uranus, harsher planets, can learn to pray, or appeal to something higher than themselves, rather than explode into misery. Making enemies is not recommended.

Juggling things felicitously is possible when you can feel that the world is friendly. Irritability, on the contrary, would diminish power and efficiency. Feelings irrepressible in you can be released wisely--if used as sources of positive energy.

Song of the day: Vivir Mi Vida by Marc Anthony

We ought not to shirk labor. There is naturalness, simplicity and gain in facing what needs to be done honestly and getting at it. After that, and maybe during it, it is possible to enjoy the marvelous and magical in life, nature and people.

Dairy products could be helpful while Venus trines Jupiter in Cancer the sign of cows and milk. Ice cream or yogurt might be a fetish for some. At times you might feel lost, as if something you wanted to rely on is not there. That is freedom from something no longer needed, and a chance to demonstrate your individual powers in fresh ways.

P. S. Since the Cosmic Connection forecasts began, I have used *stars* around the title when the moon is in a fire sign. But now that I use the stars for rating time-periods, that might be confusing, so I have adopted the ^ for titles on those fire-sign days.


Friday 18 April 2014

Sun in Aries; Moon in Sagittarius; Foci in 8, Regeneration and 5, Pleasure or Offspring

Moon on course **
|Karmically difficult or sobering third| of this week ends at 5:44a PT | 8:44a ET | 12:44p UT  ***  (maximum is five stars)

^Faith Overcomes Doubt^

Nature generally seems impersonal or not concerned with human beings. It is said that Jesus (in the incident of calming the ocean waves) and others of spiritual stature can sometimes change that situation. Meanwhile we struggle on with our individual competence to meet nature's challenges. There can be wonderful success in this and links with specially beneficial individuals (Venus trine Jupiter and sextile Pluto).

A place where there is somewhat amateurish music or performance may be enjoyable for a while. Then it could become a "black hole" when it no longer serves you and it would be wise to move on. 

You are not at a loss for ways of thinking or ways of entertaining people (moon trine Uranus and Mercury). You can be alert to opportunities and grasp what would elude you if you were less sharp. 

You may deal with smokers or pass through a smoky area; or if this is symbolic, you conquer ambiguity by being direct in communications which lead toward success. It may be hard to keep your faith going when things seem murky or at a standstill.

Song of the day: Is it Right by Elaiza

Fighting is possible while Mars and Uranus tangle in an opposition. It would be good to view everything with a sense of humor and see any feud as a game rather than bitter rivalry.

You could take any lack of cooperation with you by nature, institutions or human beings as a respite, a chance to reconnoiter and get your bearings before pressing on again. Spiritual detachment is not indifference, but an ability to view things from a longer-term perspective when much seems blocked, while not losing faith in the goodness of the cosmos and of  individual destiny.
