Moon in Libra ** |
|Karmically difficult or sobering third| of this week ends at 1:13a PT | 4:13a ET | 8:13a UT ***
The Brussels attacks yesterday took place during a |karmically difficult or sobering third| of a week and while the moon was void-of-course (all day). The attacks on 9/11/2001 also took place when both of these lunar conditions were present. I report these void-of-course and |difficult third| periods every day because I have seen how important they are. We cannot just stop the world and get off at such times, but when both of them are going on we could take care to be specially cautious.
I did not have a terrible day, but I was not really tested, being alone most of the day. I did feel a disconnection from what I had intended to accomplish and did not do as much as planned; this was pointed out in the forecast for Tuesday as a possibility and I am sure I am not the only one who behaved that way. We needed a bit of a break, perhaps. And the suicide bombers should definitely have taken a break--permanently. Pressing on with something one's deeper self knows is a mistake is one thing people often do during both void-of-course and |difficult third| periods--yes, even to suicide sometimes, I am sorry to say.
Further, as pointed out in last weekend's Sermon here, and in the following forecast for the Fortnight of March 15-31, we are, on Monday and Tuesday (check the Saturday Sermon and you will see) at the very heart of the Saturn square Jupiter aspect, a karmically challenging one.
In addition to all that, Venus is now squaring Saturn. It snuck up on us, and I did not even report it yet although by a ten-degree orb it began last Thursday March 17 and continues until April 2. The heart of it, by five degrees, is from Monday the 21st through Monday the 28th. The Brussels attacks were right on time, I am sorry to say, for Venus square Saturn is a sad or depressing aspect--unless we are spiritually able to rise above it. Let us try. It is all too easy to feel sorry for oneself at such times and to feel that one is loveless, or find it very hard to stay loving and to keep one's faith in G*d, oneself, or anyone else. We need to keep trying. Love is not dead but may seem dormant. The crasser or less dedicated forms of love, bordering on lustful attachment, tend to reveal themselves for what they are, and then the deeper caritas or selfless love has a chance to find its reality. Not without mournful or melancholy hours, for most of us. Being loyal to friends or family is an art form at such times, requiring sacrifice, which turns out to be very much worth the trouble. At the same time, because everyone is touchy, one need not press too close or too assertively in anyone's direction, but with a sense of decorum and respect. That would win appreciation.
So that is going on today (Wednesday). The moon in Libra is not void-of-course as it was Tuesday, and Mercury exactly with the sun is good for planning. So in this Bright Hermetic Epoch, good for plans and choices even if depressing as this one has been for reasons just mentioned, we can, perhaps today especially, get some of those plans and choices in good shape--strategies for coping with the next month and the next Dark Hermetic Epoch beginning April 14.
Because of the Saturn aspects, those plans will be realistic and not wildly adventurous, but they could be solid and workable. You may feel confident in your personal goals, with the sun and Mercury trine Mars in fire signs. You know you can do what you have chosen to do, despite the doubts and worries outlined above and in the Fortnightly report.
