There is a mixture of continuing difficult aspects together with some promising ones (sun in good aspect to the three Capricorn planets).  "A man sowing in the wind" warns against waste and dissipation, or vain and illusive projects.  That does indeed often happen during a Dark Hermetic Epoch (this one ends on November 19, six days from now).  We might "use our superior faculties to small advantage."  If we get in trouble we would be like someone struggling in a lake, almost drowning, but saved by someone throwing a lifebuoy.  This might be because of debt or other issues.  Some of them might be resolved favorably this weekend or soon after.

Secret or controversial desires emerge to the surface under the aegis of Venus squaring both Pluto and Jupiter.  You might be embarrassed if some of these were revealed to the public.  Yet when you know that what you want is ethical and harmless you may be like one who has "a cross formed of darts," "a very positive character, a person of strong will.  He will never allow anyone to impose on him.  Ever on the defensive; one with magical abilities."  (Charubel)  If our desires transcend themselves, we are like "a bunny metamorphosed into a fairy," for "imagination molds and remolds everyday reality."  Poetry of soul sings out a transition from merely animal impulses to ideal aspirations.  

Though things are intense, it's Friday and we might want to sit down with "a tankard set upon a table," not to get drunk but to be open to receiving truth while our passions are well-regulated.  We have "a sincere regard for all that is simple and natural in human nature."  Vineyards and hostels have their place.  Purveying spiritual truths is also possible.  We are men and women "of the common walk, our sympathies with the people."  "Unconditioned friendliness brings facets of ourselves to a point of immediate expression."  It's as if we were in "a crowd upon the beach."  Such naive mutual assurance is exhilarating.
