Weekend of January 21-22, and coming week:

}Living Out Mysteries{

Let's not just "live in the future," and yet I admit my advice has been almost in that mode, because I want all of us to realize that what we seem to be stuck in now is not our future, so we have hope for something fresh. Namely, as I've pointed out, beginning February 7, better potentials emerge, and then beginning March 7 even better, and maybe best of all beginning with the zodiacal year March 20, 2023 to March 20, 2024. 

Also, this weekend is in the Dark of the Moon, with the New Moon occurring Saturday morning but that is not exactly a jump-start, more like a gentle beginning of a new lunar month. For this report, let's confine ourselves to the coming week, Saturday the 21st through Friday the 27th.

I've selected symbols for the week; one is "A new moon that divides its influences." "One's action must be tentative until he achieves his own true self-discovery. He makes a fine skill of uncertainty." The keyword is Finesse. One can slowly capitalize on life's transitions, and on the emerging potentialities of self.  

What are you dealing with, specifically? "A large group of pheasants" suggests illimitability more than specificity. "Continuous variations come to dramatize an infinite potential inherent in the whole." 

Is there any fun in the week? Yes, in "a cup, a pack of playing cards, and dice." Sepharial warns that this could signify a weakness for gambling ending in dissipation or spoliation. However, let's be kind to ourselves and have a game of cards, realizing with Plato that childlike play is facilitative of wisdom. There is more than meets the eye in what one is led to do. For Saturn, Charubel says, "There is no symbol to this degree. A degree of mystery, allied to fourth dimensional space, denoting someone who has something not in common with the rest of his race." 

Indeed, it can be a week of mystery: "A venerable man is seated in an uncertain light; before him are several books, and various scientific instruments surround him." 'His mental vision will see where others are in darkness." "Inclined to solitariness, yet always surrounded by friends; one who will be sought after while himself seeking none."

The "nobody loves me" aspect, Venus conjunct Saturn, is with us, though it can be an aspect of loyalty, of being "true blue" to someone despite her or his faults and weaknesses. "A man is walking beside a cow, with his hand on her back, bringing her home from the pasture at eventide." Whom are you "bringing home" to a scene of familiar reassuring sharing and togetherness?

The symbols insist on the mystical, as this: "* * *" "One not capable of being described in words, who will possess great magnetic powers and destroy popularized evils--a reformer, healer, and philanthropist."

All this could be slow to manifest, for though Mercury is direct he is moving very slowly, as is Mars. Great things require more time to mature than trivial ones. One might feel that one is "a performer of a mystery play," "called on to interpret the individual and his world to each other." A spiritual subtlety permeates the week's ambience.  It is "a gift for dramatizing the deeper or real opportunities of a human society."
