Generally, things look smooth and easy. I don't like to, but could warn "Perhaps too easy," because in the DHE one can easily slide toward the careless or the minimal. We are in this tension: Do I force myself to keep up with my rigid schedules, which feels too harsh, or do I let myself deviate from them, which feels irresponsible? This is a dilemma throughout the Dark Hermetic Epoch (until September 19). It has to be an individual decision at each moment. That is why I point out that it is good, at these times, to set out consciously, perhaps in writing, what one considers utterly essential as a daily or weekly routine, the absolute minimum, and try to stick to it. Then one can let oneself deviate from that a little more freely than one does during the BHE (Bright Hermetic Epoch when we are less involved in our inner processes, fantasies, or idealisms). One can be slightly more tolerant of deviation from "the program" than during a BHE, but not so tolerant that one gets into "deep doo-doo." 

Since we have good aspects today, including lunar ones, such as Luna's sextile with Uranus, we are likely to feel, "Oh, I am supreme, I rule, so forget that ridiculous diet!" For example. Or, "My partner really does not need me to do that thing she or he asked for, I have done that too many times with no gratitude." Or "The boss wants this but it is so unreasonable, screw it." We all know where such attitudes can lead, and yet there might be a smidgen of truth behind the desire to evade rigid rules or unreasonable demands. Again, it has to be an individual choice repeatedly. 

On Tuesday there is a likelihood of having to do work in seclusion and feeling that at least that prevents one from getting into arguments or strife with others. Because there is a tendency to quibble or quarrel with other viewpoints and opinions. Doing work alone could prevent this.

However, there are broader community functions in which one has enlisted, and one ought not to shirk or shun those. One needs to keep at it: "A large diamond is not completely cut." 

There is retrospect, a reliving of old experiences to get the full value out of them: "An old sea captain rocking." The old captain, who could be you, has had elements of danger in his life and managed to survive them. He has traveled far. At times he has been vindictive toward those not well-disposed to him. He has acquired followers, or a few faithful friends. Maybe he needs no more, but he should not think his work is finished.

There could be divergence from one's real task or mission. One feels that some easier but questionable path might be better. No! It is wise to stay with what has sustained one in the past, and what gets appreciation from others who benefit from it. That is worthy endeavor.
