Moon in Virgo-->Libra
/moon goes void-of-course at 3:52a PT | 6:52a ET | 10:52a UT
until it enters Libra at 5:30a PT | 8:30a ET | 12:30p UT
The |karmically difficult or challenging third| of this week lasts until late Thursday evening
The center of it is Wednesday, today, at 4:49p PT | 7:49p ET | 11:49p UT
and so the hardest 24 hours of this week (from one perspective) span 12 hours on either side of that, beginning Wednesday at 4:49a PT | 7:49a ET | 11:49a UT (until 24 hours later).
However, it is present also during the longer span indicated above (till Thursday evening).
We have our hands full. You may have noticed that you get delayed in what you are trying to finish and have to keep at it beyond normal work hours.
The Grand Trine of Mercury, Jupiter and Neptune is wonderful at some spiritual level, with marvelous dreams and visions and a sense of spiritual security. But the oppositions and squares keep us focused in outer practicalities to complete.
There are dire possibilities, "an execution," but these will be in proportion to one's karma and what one needs to learn. One may become aware of deep problems others have gotten themselves into. There is mercy as well as karma, let us remember, if we invoke it in the right manner (which may depend on one's religious or spiritual orientation).
One can be deft in performing an art or skill one has developed through "hard knocks."
The unambitious side of us takes even our ambitions as something to be pursued in a gentle rather than striving manner.
Seduction and persuasion could be arts of deception, or not, or there is craftiness somewhere in others or yourself. But if all that is used in the pursuit of valid loyalties, it becomes a virtue rather than a vice, or we hope so anyway. One has to take a stand for something.
There could be display in a milieu where luxurious habits abound: "A fine chateau, with gardens and terraces. In the foreground a peacock in full feather struts leisurely." Then there is comradeship to the point of perhaps indiscreet frankness, with a shared knowledge of human weakness and character: "Two men seated at a table with beakers of wine before them."
I suppose I ought to warn against going to far in the trends of the previous paragraph, since we are in the |challenging third| period. However, today and tomorrow are the peak of the year, from a solar viewpoint, the Summer Solstice, so some celebration may be appropriate.

P. S. I have to say something about the surprising death by homicide of XXXTentacion, whose birth name was Jahseh Onfroy. It happened Monday afternoon in Florida. He was only 20 and was a rising star in the world of current music. His birthdate is January 23, 1998. He was an Aquarian, and a powerful one, with not only the sun there but Mars, Jupiter and Uranus, the sign's ruler. Very powerful. And I might say dangerous, because male Aquarians have a propensity either to violence or to being fascinated by violence. Perhaps they want to cure violence in others, yet become involved in it in trying to cure it; or perhaps they perpetrate it in the name of love, as in "You always hurt the one you love." Aquarian males can be, sometimes, sadists looking for masochists, even if they do not realize that about themselves. So it was with Jahseh, or XXXTentacion, for he had been in a juvenile detention center and later, as his career was blossoming, faced charges of assaulting, strangling and imprisoning his girl friend. Yet his music, which I listened to today, is sensitive, often, and shows signs of spiritual yearning in its unconventional manner. He was a good soul, I believe, whose horoscope, because of his past lives, was one requiring enormous self-management and development of awareness in order to avoid tragedy. This is shown by a number of indications, including the moon conjoined to Pluto, with both of them squaring the Jupiter-Mars conjunction in Aquarius! His bundle-shaped chart, with all the planets within the defining trine of moon and Saturn in fire signs, shows insistence and self-intentness, like a gyroscope spinning on its own axis. Not much room for compromise there, nor in the absence of water signs. Years ago I read a long description of a youth who had no planets in water signs and no one including his parents could understand his lack of ordinary human kindness. However, Jahseh or XXXTEntacion could have overcome that because someone with the lack of one element can spend a large part of his life trying to overcome that lack, as doubtless he was doing with his girlfriend, in an errant or amoral or perhaps simply wrong manner. Also his songs seem to express his attempt to "become human" or develop the sympathy and humanity of the water signs. His chart has genius possibilities and it is sad that he did not remain in incarnation long enough to polish them fully.
