~From Barrenness toward Establishment~

Moon in Libra-->Scorpio

|Karmically serious, sobering, challenging third| of this week continues until mid-day Thursday

< moon remains in the Via Combusta until Wednesday afternoon

/moon goes void-of-course at 1:12p PT | 4:12p ET | 9:12p UT

until it enters Scorpio at 1:17p PT | 4:17p ET | 9:17p UT (just five minutes later)

There's a back-to-work feeling in the air (as of yesterday) yet also a bit of the 'take a break' Christmas spirit, as in 'a series of  bubbles floating in the air.'  This could indicate 'elasticity and expansiveness of soul' so that one appreciates the sparkling, bright aspects of the holiday season (Happy Fourth Day of Christmas!).  Worse, it could suggest mere dabbling in vanities or pseudo-occult would-be verities.  Yet real verities may float within or between the bubbles. The challenging third of the week could result in some isolation, with vigils or 'strengthening of the spirit in lonely meditation.'  One could emulate 'an eagle carrying its prey in mid-air' while engaged in solitary musing. The 'prey' is ethereal or spiritual pabulum.

'A man desponding on a barren plain with leaden-colored clouds overhead' is also suffering the 'gloomy third' of this week.  However, he may be surprised and pleased to find that he owns 'a field of ripe corn in which reapers are at work 'neath the beams of the Sun.'  Fortune may smile, conferring abundance.

Or if one's business requires trading, one could be like 'an oriental-rug dealer.'  One has a consignment of goods, or capital or talent, to invest, and this can be the basis of effective practicality through beneficent transactions.  Competency weaves values into the human fabric.  Then there are 'birds in the house singing happily' because spirit or intelligence is shaping circumstances to reveal 'the higher vision by which man remains himself at core.'  The individual is impregnably independent, and singing, when happily established.
