Moon in Libra-->Scorpio

< moon remains in the Via Combusta until late Monday night

/moon goes void-of-course at 2:37p PT | 5:37p ET | 9:37p UT

until it enters Scorpio at 8:02p PT | 11:02p ET | 3:02a(M) UT

Challenge:  The above data suggest this is a transition day. 'A woman in an attitude of dejection covers her otherwise naked breast with the hair of her head.'  One might feel deserted or betrayed by someone, or feel that one has done that to someone else.  Venus approaching a square with Neptune makes affections doubtful, perhaps, yet one can find one's soul in and through the suffering.  Sepharial says that there is 'a peculiar admixture of gentleness and irritability, of playfulness and gravity.'  He suggests that the military and musical worlds might be joined together.  There could be dancing.  

Process:  'An empty space' goes with the Via Combusta; one may feel open to 'extraneous influences' through weakness or indifference.  And so it might be wise to turn to 'a very old-looking book, appearing as if some ancient record.'  Charubel summons up 'a profound thinker, capable of grappling with abstruse studies.'  One might love one's books.  

Blessing:  If one has the leisure, one might turn, as yesterday, to that troubadour taking a break from his singing to listen to a cascade of water falling at his feet.  All is ungrasping, happiness-winging mutual influence and harmony.  The grieving woman of the first paragraph might be dreaming of 'a priest performing a marriage ceremony,' or one might feel that oneself is bringing two individuals together in some way, administering a ritualized desire for unity.  Conforming to established patterns can, paradoxically, through communal influence, release individual inclinations.
