Moon in Libra

< moon enters the Via Combusta at 7:38p PT | 10:38p ET | 1:38a(Su) UT (a 2-day period of cosmic reshuffling with possible loss of morale or need for reorientation, lasting until late Monday night)

Challenge:  Mercury square Neptune, each in its own sign, is consonant with 'a broken pitcher lying upon the ground with spilled fruit around it.'  This could be impracticality and vain pursuits resulting in impotence.  Sometimes higher thought or realization (Neptune) can interfere with lower competence (Mercury) unless one consciously reconciles them, something we are more likely to need during any Dark or Slow Hermetic Epoch (until July 7).  Then one might be strong both physically and psychically, responsible for 'buildings and rocky ramparts resting on a tremendous Corinthian pillar,' in other words, for some gigantic scheme or organization, as its founder or supporter.  

Process:  If one tunes to the presence of Luna in Venus's sign Libra while trining Venus in Gemini (plus Mars trine Neptune in water signs), one might succumb to the odor of 'a cluster of faded exotics, very sweet and sickly to the smell.'  This could be timidity, frailty, and 'fictitious stimulants' (some of them well known and widely used).  This would be putting pleasure ahead of character.  However, there is room for natural recreation and renewal, 'the garden of the Tuileries' or of old French royalty.  There one can enjoy the luxury of 'social position and wealth' spiced with 'graceful and exquisite self-expression.'  All desire satisfactions which others cherish as well.

Blessing:  If inclined to serious thinking or study, one might be in possession of 'a square, containing twelve small squares, resembling the breast-plate of the Jewish high priest.'  This denotes 'a reverential and devotional disposition,' secrecy, study of the occult, and perhaps 'mighty deeds as a magician.'  In more relaxed mode, in that luxurious garden or some more common semblance of it, one may encounter 'a troubadour standing with one foot on the ledge of a rock, his instrument slung at his side, listening to the music of a cascade falling at his feet.'  This is a colorful and romantic phase, with love of the marvelous, contentment with one's own powers, and harmony with others by whom one is influenced.

P. S.  I do a lot of study, contemplation, and mental-psychic groping toward Truth to write these paragraphs, hoping to clear your path of weeds and point toward fruit-bearing greenery.  I hope it helps.
