Moon in Aquarius
|Karmiically serious, sobering, challenging third| of this week is with us until Sunday

As I've been mentioning, this summer has been a challenge to all, and also to me as an astrologer continually trying to refine his methods and make them more accurate and helpful for those who read these reports.

A basic conclusion I am reaching is that the best way to understand what is happening in our lives is to base our understanding of it all on the particular aspects among the planets which are exact at the moment Mercury conjoins the sun at the center of each Hermetic Epoch (two-month period, approximately).  

There, in one sentence I have given you the secret of what it took me years of searching and struggling to learn. 

The next Epoch will be a Dark or Slow one, that is, the period when Mercury slows down and then goes retrograde and then speeds up slowly.  It extends from September 6 through November 2.  The planetary configurations for that period are much smoother and more pleasant, as a whole, than for the current Bright or Quick Epoch (July 7 through September 5).  And so I can predict a happier time, though of course not everything becomes simple and easy.  It seems to me a good vacation period, for those who can arrange that.  If not, one could make a sort of vacation of one's work by rearranging, rescheduling, and having fun with it.  

True, in any Dark or Slow Epoch one can get confused and things can get tangled; there is 'too much' going on or one tries to grasp too much at once; but the insights one gets can be exhilarating.  Old friends and relatives are prominent in a happy manner.  It is a time for reunions, and especially the one coming up just two weeks from now.  I wish we could all take a vacation or go on a cruise.  I am glad to report that the Bright Epoch after that, from November 3 through December 28, also looks very good and smooth, much happier than this dreadful summer has been.  

Still, not everything is horrid and I hope you will take heart from what I just said, keeping your poise and balance (with Venus in Libra the sign of balance) for the next couple of weeks.
