Moon in Cancer-->Leo
/moon goes void-of-course at 4:22a PT | 7:22a ET | 11:22a UT
until it enters Leo at 9:19p PT | 12:19a(F) ET | 4:19a(F) UT

Scorecard for Cosmic Piper (I have to do this myself because no one else seems to notice when I am right): 
In Tuesday's forecast I wrote: "Shifting patterns of events may seem accidental, yet are designed to bring out your creative opportunism. " The reason I wrote that was a symbol for the day from the Sabian Symbols, 1Aquarius2, "An unexpected thunderstorm." This time the symbol was literal:
FENTON, Mo. (KMOV.com) -- Golf fans looking to attend Tuesday's practice round were greeted by a long wait at the Fenton shuttle lot, as stormy weather halted the buses.
Golf action was suspended at Bellerive around 7:00 a.m. due to weather. As a result, shuttles were not transporting fans who parked at the Fenton shuttle lot to the course. 
I stopped giving seven daily symbols here because some readers found them confusing, but in many cases they are literally accurate. An actual "unexpected thunderstorm" delayed the golf action and stranded fans in the parking lot.  Also, the moon was void-of-course all day! 

I sometimes felt years ago that the TV series "Lost" was a good representation of Mercury Retrograde and the larger Dark Hermetic Epoch, when many indeed feel they are lost, yet often are "resurrected" or re-found. Now we have, this time around, two cases of young women who got "lost" (let us hope) or kidnapped (let us pray not) during the current DHE. And, believe it or not, both of them disappeared on a day which was in the |karmically serious third| of the week.  Mollie Tibbetts disappeared in Iowa on July 17, marked down here as a |difficult third| day for Luna was square Saturn exactly that afternoon and evening when she disappeared. 

SNOHOMISH COUNTY, Wash. -- Nearly 7,000 people have joined a Facebook group with the goal of finding Sam Sayers. The 27-year-old [woman] went on a day hike at Vesper Peak in the North Cascades last Wednesday and did not return home.  [Fox News]

In this case, also, Sam disappeared on a day within the |karmically serious third| of that week, when Luna was exactly square Saturn on August 1. And, of course, both women disappeared during a Dark Hermetic Epoch, one before Mercury turned retrograde and one after. In Sam's case, the moon was also void-of-course until almost 1 pm.  Sam left on a solo hike at 8 a.m. on August 1. [from the Fox News article] So when she started out on her hike Mercury was retrograde, the moon was void-of-course, and it was during the |karmically serious third| of that week. 

I keep posting the |difficult third| because it is important and meaningful. I hope that if you watch it you will sense what it means for you. It does not mean "Hide under your bed" but does mean that it is good to exercise normal or more-than-normal caution and to pray seriously about any unusual or possibly dangerous action you might take. It is usually a "hunker down to the bunker" day. (That still leaves two thirds of the week for, depending on circumstances, a little more adventure!)

Thursday:  One can be sober and plodding. People do not recognize your virtues perhaps and yet you persist and eventually can gain recognition.

There are unlimited possibilities for innovation, with the moon void-of-course, though not all of these attempts will bring blessings.

If you feel weak and indecisive, that could be your fault, or it could be that you are in a period (Mercury retrograde plus moon v-of-c plus waning moon) which requires you to hold back somewhat as you evaluate things. At the crossroads, none of the four arrows seems to be held up by an angel so you ponder a while.  Maybe the angel will come.

Why do people go to prison? Because they have somehow imprisoned themselves in self-centered views and beliefs which estrange them from others and erode character. Then the society estranges itself from them by locking them up. We need to overcome self-imprisonment (as well as reform unjust sentencing and unjust prison conditions, different but important issues). 

Learning, and assimilating others' ideas, is helpful. You can shine by reflected light and this teaches you to shine by your own. 

Good deeds come naturally when one is sympathetic.

Enduring links with hallowed traditions lend depth to your character and sustain you.
