Week of Saturday 23 through Friday 29 May 2015
This seems a harder week than the past two. There is a need to be careful about health, keeping up with the strategies one knows to be effective preventatives in one's own case. There could be dangers of infection, or of picking up tendencies or problems from others. It is important to remember your abilities and keep using them. If you have a chance at being in public, or doing so actively as in presenting something, you will do better to be brave and go ahead. Don't miss your "calling" or what life is suggesting that you do. Wavering is natural, while Mercury remains retrograde (to June 11), but could be poisonous to your real spiritual welfare. It is good to try, always. If you feel in competition with others, that won't hurt, and they are as likely to fail as you are. Seeing it as a game may be hard yet helpful.
There are protests, politically and otherwise. I myself agree with many of them. People have to assert themselves in order to improve social-economic conditions. A danger could be going at it in a too rash or warlike spirit, thereby defeating the very purpose by calling forth reaction or counter-action. Disputes are sometimes unavoidable. It seems that the advice from the cosmos is to be sure of your facts and figures, learning them, writing them down, so you can be certain of them and thereby able to persuade others.
You may note that some seem avaricious and self-seeking, and that you need to defend yourself from that. Common sense and ordinary caution should carry you through. Your abilities may exceed the likelihood of your using them effectively. So you could dither and play with your skills rather than employ them to good effect. Yet this is not unavoidable. While Mercury goes backward we have to realize that there are limits to forward progress, but the seeming backwardness of the time is a chance to catch up with ourselves, our skills and knowledge.
Recovering from difficulties in personal relationships is essential. You can do it. You may see that someone you love is frittering away his abilities by focusing on child's play rather than what he could really do as a contribution to humanity (and therefore to himself ultimately.). This is a hard realization. He wants to be himself fully and give in to his free impulses. Yet this can only carry him so far, regardless of the fantastic luck he may have. To "be himself" he needs to be warmhearted and generous. This he can do. Yet in addition to that, he can achieve far more than he attempts.
Someone who means a lot to you may be remote from you. You have a spiritual link but this is not easy to translate into ordinary reality. This person could become a student, at some point, no matter how hard this may be, and subordinate himself or herself to the realities of the socio-economic situation. A pioneering trend in this individual is held back by circumstances for now. Yet a lightning flash of illumination could reveal to him what he can do and how he can proceed.
You want to accomplish and be far more than the world sees you as now. That is difficult. You may want to brandish your sword and proclaim "This is what I have and know, this is what I am trying to be, and if you oppose me I am ready to cut you down." That is normal and natural, but not wise, because ultimately we have to wait until the cosmos is ready to acknowledge our prowess and skill, rather than to insist that it do so at once. You want to be something stupendous which no one now can understand. Yea! Do it! Something in you is irrepressible and resourceful. But don't drive yourself to irritability and self-exhaustion. You are better than that. Restraint and patience will prove your soul-strength. Time will demonstrate your worth.
There is a resolution of all things toward what is solid and reliable. Everybody wants material goods and financial security. What prevents that, in many cases, is a superficial assumption of self-worth rather than a subordination of oneself to the Supreme. G*d is prodigal, giving us more than we could have imagined or asked for, yet we need to be alert to His prompting and live up to His standards and heroic suggestions. To be daring and courageous is to manifest G*d's truth. Then there is no lack, in the ultimate, even if there seems lack temporarily. Many who are "wizards" of technology, programmers or others, are ready to manifest G*d's prodigality of guidance and order. But more important, the sooner they acknowledge Him, with fullness of appreciation and love, the better things will be for them and all of us.
