\Focus Plus Festivity/
Moon in Taurus
Two angels are bringing protection, accompanied by an elephant. The latter has great sagacity and carries his castle on his back. A student has a blank sheet of paper before him, and a ruler, T square, compass and pens, but he sits dreaming of a marriage he hopes for. The elephant says he ought to concentrate on his mathematical work. Instead he draws two circles with a gold pen, and ties them together in a double bow with his blue pen. One of the angels is pondering whether or not to bless this possibly upcoming union. The other is sure that the man needs to focus his thoughts on his work. A groundhog appears and says "Where did my shadow go?" The elephant laughs kindly. An enlivening sound of merriment comes through the window. The villagers are assembling outside in the square. Each is wearing a costume connected with his or her group or nation, and there are tables set up for international dishes. The student leaves his table, pens and paper and joins the convivial crowd, hailing a friend. The elephant ambles into the square and sets down his castle with his trunk. It expands to make room for his personal bulk; he disappears into it with no interest in the festivities. The student thinks he sees his beloved coming down the block, only to be disappointed when she gets nearer and is a stranger. The angels throw up their hands, or wings, and decide to leave the scene. The student is shown a photo of himself taken by his friend. He ponders his own demeanor and profile. "Not bad. I have some character. Better get back to my work. Maybe my girlfriend will call."
