Moon remains in the Via Combusta all day

Our lives are not ruled by "the stars" or "the moon" as anti-astrologers like to impute to us as a belief they can rebuke. Rather, the planets and the moon signify things we are going through as pilgrims toward the Eternal and the Immortal, in Whose bosom we will change our relation to these difficult aspects to one of joy and acceptance rather than grief. All that is trying to put in words what is beyond words. So when I put this as a "one star" day I am not suggesting futility or pointlessness. Rather, it is spiritual challenge. Find what in you transcends all the changes, all the Samsara (to use a Buddhist term), and link to That rather than to what troubles you. Then "the stars" and "the moon" will become assistants to your Self-realization rather than enemies buffeting you about.
His friends can't stop laughing at him. He loves it.
He can't stop pretending to be anyone he secretly despises,
Simulating stupidity playfully. Then afterward,
His hearers, meditative, attend celestial choirs.
He would love to be the streaker who performed, illegally,
On the Ninja Warrior obstacle course.
Audacity would be his middle name. But now
He sits with pen in hand, computing higher problems.
He has done much and given much, a technocrat wizard,
But yields to imposition, losing advantage. Yet
He is firm, desiring rulership, governing himself
And others, swaying destiny to his triumph.
