~Self-Respect and Tolerance~

Moon in Gemini-->Cancer

|Karmically serious third| of this week continues (until Sunday)

/moon void-of-course   * / |

until it enters Cancer at 4:26a PT | 7:26a ET | 11:26a UT   ** |

There is fierce independence, a sense of "This is who I am; this is what I do;  and if you don't like it that's your problem." 

At the same time there is an attempt for smoothness in ordinary connections, so that losses or gains by the minute or hour do not disturb you. 

There is diversity in interests, and a sense of wanting to accomplish something no matter how small. Prospects seem wonderful, with a sense of unending potentials ahead, "the gate to the garden of desire." 

Much seems mysterious. The heart of the world is beyond the mind's grasp, so we have to know it with our own hearts. There can be fidelity, friendship, and sympathy, even if veiled or humorous. 

Trimming back things in the way is helpful, like pruning plants. People are sensitive and touchy (Mars opposite Saturn; and |difficult third|) so you may need to pull back from them sometimes. When they are hurting, they may resort to mimicry, imitating those they fear or despise. 

There are unstable tendencies: "I don't know what I want so I'll just do this." That may not be a mistake if done in the right spirit, or it could lead to drunkenness or some debacle. At best, there will be "peace in the valley" and we can mitigate tensions through tolerance and goodwill.

~Definition Minus Stubborn Harshness~

Moon in Cancer   ***

[/moon goes void-of-course very late, exactly midnight PT, 3 a.m. Monday ET   ** /]

Tensions may be less, yet there remains an independent streak especially in relation to opinions, beliefs, philosophic or religious positions. That is, "I know what I believe, and I feel good about it, but I'm not so sure about you." Isn't that the way it usually is?

Still, there can be give and take in communications and interactions so that feathers remain unruffled. You feel that something in which you have invested your mental and spiritual energy has its secure place, and so you feel good about that no matter what goes on around you. 

The arts, and decorations, decor, may be noticeable and pleasing. "The gate to the garden of desire" remains open: prospects of fulfillment.

Some matters connected with business or bookkeeping seem important, even on a Sunday, and you could take care of them while remaining friendly to people otherwise. 

What do we make of the possibility of disputes, in both business and domestic life, on a holiday weekend? Just: to be on top of them and don't let them get out of hand. If they are there they need to be worked through, of course, one way or another (Mars opposite Saturn exactly). Someone seems weak and disorderly, or someone may think that you are that way. Mutual respect can be worked up somehow, all the more easily if one respects oneself (paragraphs 2 and 3).
