Forecast for Friday 17 June 2016

Friday 17 June 2016

~Personable Kindly Detachment~

Moon in Scorpio-->Sagittarius   ***
/moon goes void-of-course at 6:54a PT | 9:54a ET | 1:54p UT   ** /
|Karmically difficult or sobering third| of this week begins at 8:45a PT | 11:45a ET | 3:45p UT (until very late Sunday evening)  * / |
Moon enters Sagittarius (no longer v-of-c) at 6:35p PT | 9:35p ET | 1:35a UT   ** |

The void-of-course period this time covers almost exactly 12 hours. As usual, it is good for either very routine things that need to be done, or else freeform relaxation of some sort, or meditation and prayer, but probably not for making major decisions, choices, agreements, or departures into new projects. Not everything is crazy but things can go crazy. So peacefulness is a keyword.

If you were wanting to read a forecast which always pleases you, you would not be reading this one. I congratulate you on your ability to face things courageously. I have to say that today money matters or business issues do not look felicitous. Of course, studying, researching, and planning are fine, but implementing anything new or questionable is not wise now. Some may feel they are losing in some way. But loss, in the inexhaustible universe, is a prelude to later gain. 

The bi-quintile (lucky aspect) between Mars and Venus remains. This is something possibly heartening and uplifting in love life, or mutual attraction and affection. With the moon v-of-c, perhaps it is better not to seek it directly but let it happen when it does. 

Borrowing from the amazing astrologer Grant Lewi:  

You could feel forceful, magnetic, and versatile. Too much self-indulgence, however, could absorb your vitality and energy. You have more control over people if you are detached and intellectual; if you seek pleasure directly, you fall under their power. You could fall in with zany companions. An objective approach will help you avoid getting lost, so some caution is recommended. 

(Adapted from his book Heaven Knows What, the section on sun in Gemini plus moon in Scorpio.) 

At another level the X cross remains with us: A need to reach to the depths of one's own soul and manifest one's true destiny. This is a deep weekend in which to attempt to do that. 

I realize that many individuals have only the weekends to be with some important friend or loved one. So in my role as "grinch" I am not suggesting that you avoid that special person, on these difficult weekends through June and into July, but remember to be specially considerate and follow all those rules you know but often forget: Try to do things the other person likes, and not impose on her or him what you like. Or, better maybe, find something both of you like, as well as you can. And then, rather than bring up really difficult issues directly, try to finesse them or bring a deeper light of spiritual kindness and understanding to bear on them. I realize I am mouthing words we all find hard to put into practice, but they may suggest the gist of how to navigate the |difficult third| with a loved one. Touchiness and anxiety are increased, sometimes to the point of walking on eggshells. Love is tested but can grow stronger and deeper as a result. Or, if everything seems impossible, a temporary hiatus in the relationship may be normal and helpful.
