• Consequential Entanglement plus Sagacious Advantage • 1 "A woman blindfolded, and a man leading her" is an exact depiction of what went on between Jeffrey Epstein and his young female "employees," and today ten of them are slated to appear on the Capitol Steps for a news conference with Representative Massie. Said Sepharial of the symbol: "it denotes a person of weak but seductive nature who will have much influence on the other sex, led into dangerous relations with them, so that the life may be compared to a tangled skein in which the complications are more various than the materials which enter into them. The keyword is Entanglement." 1x And thus a clairvoyant in the 1880s described exactly the Epstein Island in a symbol coming into pertinence on the very day ten of these women are to appear before the public. 2 The "Two men placed under arrest" are Epstein and Maxwell in an obvious way, but also potentially many others who squirm at the possibility of being exposed. "Total inappropriateness of impulse and act" has Consequences, the keyword. 3 But there are human beings of a different stripe, perhaps resembling "an elephant with his castle on his back." They have strength, cool courage, and sagacity; they are defenders and helpers of the weak. 4 Troubles of recent days, including earthquakes in Afghanistan which took at least 1400 lives, plus personal troubles of your own, are connected with the precpitating square between Jupiter and Mars. But we also have an increasing sextile between Mars and Venus reflected nicely in a symbol for today: "A fine bull of a white color grazes in the shade of a large tree in a park." This promises "a quiet and successful life, born into large estates or joining such by marriage. The character is steadfast, firm, independent, reserved, benevolent; yet cautious and patient." The keyword is Advantage. • Wednesday • Consequential Entanglement plus Sagacious Advantage • Cosmic Piper Moon in Capricorn

• Escaping from Peril • 1 We have some unhappy symbols today, such as "a wolf carrying away a lamb." Sometimes warnings apply not to yourself, the reader, but to someone you know, or less disturbingly to someone you hear about in the news. Let's hope there are no news stories of abductions or trafficking of children or other exploitation of the innocent. 2 If there are, there is also a remedy: "Two men placed under arrest." Many have to face legal consequences of their cruel or cunning misdeeds. Others (most of us) merely have to face reminders of what would happen if we got out of line. We need to be consistent in living up to ideals. 3 At worst, some have gone so far wrong that the karmic consequences are perilous. "An oak tree is broken by the wind, and beneath is the skeleton of some dead creature." Yet even the worthless are given shelter out of sheer goodwill. If sins or errors weigh on you, remember that Jesus said "The Son of Man has the right on earth to forgive sins," and do some serious study of the Gospels daily in order to be ready for such forgiveness. 4 If free of, or escaped from, most of such problems you can be as "a man with hand and index finger pointing upward as if in command." He has "a generous and kind disposition and a high order of intelligence, capable of filling various positions, ingenious and inventive. He will succeed, and receive tributes to his or her usefulness." • Tuesday • Escaping from Peril • Cosmic Piper Moon in Capricorn Karmically sobering third of this week continues until late evening

 Message for Weekend of August 30 & 31, 2025

Saturday 30: 1 "A boat landing washed away" is a clue that some things have exceeded their usefulness. There is joy in bringing self-competence to meet any emergency. The keyword is Respite. 2 One can "get large granite stones out of a rock," in other words, succeed with the most ordinary things of this world, even become wealthy by means which other people would consider beneath their notice. 3 A public character on "a coach heavily laden with passengers" does much for others, forgetting some duties owed to himself. Then he or she may find himself poorly treated by those she devotedly served. 4 Some seem "born to power, eminence, and fame," possessing courage, nobility, energy and endurance. "On the crest of a scepter shines a diamond like a magnificent star." The keyword is Superiority. Moon in Scorpio is void-of-course until entering Sagittarius at 7:06a PT Sunday 31: 1 Sometimes there are superficially unfriendly relatiions between man as a person and the totally impersonal forces of nature, symbolized by "a boat landing washed away." This could be something as simple as a change in the agenda of the holiday weekend. 2 "A large stone falling" could endanger someone beneath it. Charubel advises that we keep to high ground. Maybe that means higher rather than lower thinking. 3 Riffing on the first two paragraphs, we may be explorers and discoverers. "Four long posts and four rails fastened horizontally to the top of each resemble a temporary building or shanty." 4 We have spiritual faculties. Our minds can be aspiring, noble and hopeful; intuitive rather than logical. "An aureole of clouds, in the midst of which appears a triangle of flame and an eye within the triangle." The keyword is Ardor. Moon in Sagittarius Weekend of August 30 & 31, 2025 Cosmic Piper

• Holding to Orbit • 1 "A farmhouse sets between high mountains. A yard about the house is entered by a white gate." Such a vision of rustic country life is refreshing. 2 "A harem" includes Restraint, the keyword, of those who make it up. Regimentation may not be creative, but "an enforced conservation of energies need not encourage a surrender of basic ideals." 3 Then there is a martial version of regimentation. "Two crossed swords above a gauntlet form an escutcheon." Some have a taste for athletics, deeds of daring, or contests. Military service can succeed as long as there is not undue self-assertion. The keyword is Prowess. 4 "Circular paths" do not have to signify "a tendency to think in circles and so lose all perspective in inconsequentialities." We can remain "true to ourselves at center" and hold to an orbit of realization. Ourselves and our world may seem at variance at some point of crisis, but inevitably everything falls into place. (Back to paragraph 1?) The keyword is Congruity. • Friday • Holding to Orbit • Cosmic Piper Moon in Scorpio goes void-of-course at 5:48p PT

° Persevering Service and Creative Diversion ° 1 Things seem more normal and reassuring than yesterday. "A cat upon the watch for prey" is prudent and patient in accomplishing his or her desires. You and others have diplomacy, suavity, self-restraint and watchfulness; are keen in observing but slow to draw conclusions. Caution and perseverance make for success. 2 "A noon siesta" may be appropriate at some point for Recuperation. Then there can be more incisiveness of thought and effective directness of act. 3 For some, to serve some of the numerous wants of a suffering humanity is the end and aim of life. Their symbol is "A man with a long wand with a glass globe on the top charged with aromatics. The bearer as he passes along fills the air with sweet odors." He feels most honored when he most serves. 4 There are rotating chances for the pleasure of creative exchange, as if we were on "A merry-go-round." There is "receptiveness to every turn of opportunity." The keyword is Diversion. ° Thursday ° Persevering Service and Creative Diversion ° Cosmic Piper Moon in Scorpio and the Via Combusta

• Recuperating toward Modest Efficiency • 1 The moon being void-of-course till evening (time below) is reflected in the daily symbols. "A wave-line of nebulous light obscured by a cloud in the midst" denotes possible moral turpitude, or action which is inconsequent or unreliable. Ignorance accompanies aimless wandering. 2 Luna is not only void-of-course but in the Via Combusta. We may feel like Sisyphus, rolling a stone up a hill but never gaining the top. But "no apparent result" does not mean complete failure. "Study your natal figure" suggests Charubel. 3 Maybe "a noon siesta" is appropriate. That stone can wait till you start pushing it again, while you withdraw your attention for a moment of inner reorientation. "A subconscious fellowship with the eternal grants freedom from unnecessary involvement in ephemeral affairs." The keyword is Recuperation. 4 Then you may be as "a soldier prepared for battle," quick to respond to calls of duty and honor. Noble instincts and well-disciplined habits make you "a willing friend and a redoubtable opponent," succeeding through executive powers (no matter what the moon is doing). The keyword is Efficiency. • Wednesday • Recuperating toward Modest Efficiency • Cosmic Piper Moon in Libra is void-of-course until entering Scorpio at 6:28p PT/ 9:28p ET Moon in the Via Combusta

• Ease and Enchantment, plus Productivity • 1 The moon enters the Via Combusta by early afternoon, so the first symbol may be appropriate: "A pennant or streamer indicating the course of the wind." One might be vacillating and uncertain, driven about by opinions or prevailing sentiments. Sometimes hopeful, sometimes nervous, one makes small headway. Yet duties can be carried out. 2 "Children blowing soap bubbles" have a simplicity of character which maintains touch with a transcendental magic of being. We can be childlike without being childish. The keyword is Enchantment. 3 Of course, life goes on, and it is well to be "ripe with well-directed aspirations and endeavors" so that one may enjoy a useful, productive and peaceful life. "A field of corn stands high and ripe." 4 "A star surrounded with many rings" transmits to us the grace of the Supreme Lord so that we "never need be cast down. Thou wilt meet with trials, but fear not, Thy bread shall be given thee, and thy water is sure." • Tuesday • Ease and Enchantment, plus Productivity • Cosmic Piper Moon in Libra goes void-of-course at 7:08p PT.

° Upward Toward Escape ° 0 A new Bright Hermetic Epoch begins today at approximately 2a PT/ 5a ET, lasting till October 20. We can hope for easier, less tangled planning with less delay or backtracking in carrying out the plans. 1 As if to celebrate this, Venus enters Leo today in the symbolic degree "A lion stands upon an elevation looking toward a rising sun." Some show forth self-reliance, fearlessness and nobility. If not pompous tyrants, they are apt in the government of others. 2 "A man in a skull cap is busy at work with scientific instruments." Investigation and experiment pay off eventually after long and earnest research. 3 "You may kill, but never conquer" "a wild boar." He refuses to adopt the tricky policies of modern civilization, having "a life of his own, a sphere of his own, and pleasures of his own." 4 In the light of the above paragraphs we may feel like "Miners emerging from a mine" who manifest "irresistible curiosity and indomitable self-confidence." Doggedness of effort brings about a better world. Uncompromising strength of character leads upward to Escape. ° Monday ° Upward Toward Escape ° Cosmic Piper Moon enters Libra at 7:09a PT/ 10:09a ET; void-of-course in Virgo for 14 minutes before that. Karmically sobering third of this week is at its peak today, ending Tuesday afternoon.
