• Expedients, or Mandate? • Short forecast: It's just a helluva mess while Mercury is retrograde, February 26 to March 20. Plus, the moon is void-of-course virtually all day. Welcome to Chaos. The symbols for today include possibly the worst of all, representing conscious Evil or black magic, deliberate cruelty. On the contrary, another one represents a harmless person putting the finishing touches on preparation of a meal before him, one fond of "good living." "A forest of big oaks affords a spacious vista for wandering." If allowed to go in one's own Groove one will prosper. A practical business person is never short of Expedients, allying himself with "the world's ways." "A woman of dark countenance stands over a man Prostrating himself before her." I leave the interpretation to you. "A fox running along a path beneath the shadow of a wall" prudently and cunningly avoids dangers. "A girl blowing a bugle" is Summoning us to participation in group responsibilities. "A man bringing down the new law from Sinai" is an inspired prophet representing and dramatizing the Right with a Mandate. Wednesday • Expedients, or Mandate? Moon in Sagittarius goes void-of-course at 2:30a until entering Capricorn at 9:08p PT Plus, the Karmically sobering third of this week is with us. Cosmic PiperTuesday, March 10, 2026

Government of others has its dangers through implied or resented Superiority. "A man riding a horse near a cliff looks down into a valley where people are working." Meanwhile a man walks in darkness with an old-fashioned lantern lighting a path of faith trod by his Forefathers.
"A cross lying on rocks" reminds us that the voice of Conscience needs to be heeded to prevent neglect of higher ideals. Otherwise one might be awakened during the dark hours by a flash of lightning Cleaving hope and uncertainty, faith and doubt.
Frustration and confusion in worldly matters--"a dense fog on an extensive plain"--can be Transcended spiritually--"there is sunshine above." The Talents of "a little white lamb, a child and a Chinese servant" demonstrate "completely unconditioned self- discovery out of wholly unlimited potentialities."
"Everything I see is green and on the move." There is little rest but much of interest in the Land of Oz. "A field of ripe corn under a cloudless sky is ready for the sickle." There can be health of body, peace of mind, a happy disposition, and Prosperity in worldly transactions.

▪︎ Righteous Assurance ▪︎ The day may start in Gloom, darkness and silence. Who could help? Only the Supreme. Then, after some time, old circuitous projects and imaginings, dreams and fancies, come alive, even if limply and uncertainly. There is Wandering. A person climbs a rock in the midst of a storm. Flashes of lightning reveal a strong figure climbing well. Perilous adventures are crowned with security and comfort. If there should be rivalism, he or she is a good Marksman hitting the target through power of concentration. A halo of golden light envelops a hand holding a sword--not for indiscriminate slaughter but for accomplishing a righteous Mission. Others, not in battle mode, are like "officers on dress parade," Disciplined and self-assured, though not currently in danger. Who can explain war? "An Angel blowing a trumpet." He publishes an important message bearing on the ethical, spiritual, social condition of mankind. May wars cease, and may we all sit down at "a table set for an evening meal." Familiarity amid pleasant surroundings eventually fosters familial kindness. Monday ▪︎ Righteous Assurance ▪︎ Moon in Scorpio goes void-of-course at 4:29a PDT until entering Sagittarius at 8:38a PDT Cosmic PiperFriday, March 6, 2026

Saturday 7:
A man in a Dark room is surrounded by books, papers and mathematical instruments. He has powers of concentration but does not benefit much from his studies. Were he to take to horsemanship he and his mount might fall at a fence.
Some lives seem hidden behind a gloomy pall for years until they enter a dark passageway leading at last to the light of a glorious day. Then they become proud and warlike, fond of Display and confident of victory.
A man plowing with two horses, in the psychic world of mankind, is preparing the earth for precious seed, as the Forerunner of a higher manifestation. He might be protected by a military officer mounted on a charger atop a hill of Lookout.
"A gigantic tent" is emblem of "the completeness with which man is able to see his experience both steadily and whole," dramatized by the circus. The keyword is Apportionment. At a more intimate and friendly level this could be "a church bazaar," embodying game-like community allegiances bringing philanthropic Benefits to all who participate.

Give us each day our daily bread.
And forgive us our sins,

• Wonders • The US-Iran war began two days after Mercury went retrograde on February 26th and we might expect an initial confusing portion of it to be completed by March 20th when Mercury turns direct. For today: "A man with two horses plowing" is preparing the earth for reception of precious seed, as a Forerunner of "a higher manifestation." He is original and individual, "ambitious of being the first in everything." Like a Hercules he manifests strength and passion, well equipped for the struggle of life. He is competent to organize a multitude or an army, whether militarily or spiritually, as a strategist on the lookout. Outdoor sports have their dangers, such as "a horse and its rider falling at a fence." One should be lawful, subjecting passion to the power of the will. "A man holds one end of a rope, the other end out of sight in the heavens." He has "a peculiar psychological power enabling him or her to procure esoteric truth at will consciously." Wonders never cease. "A petrified forest" could symbolize an approach to actual physical immortality through diet, exercise and yoga. There is "effective continuity and depth of resource in all human effort." The keyword is Survival . . . . . . and an ensuing Celebration at "an Easter promenade." We inspire one another through individualistic self-expression. Friday • Wonders • Moon in Libra goes void-of-course at 3:23p PT until entering Scorpio at 8:03p PT.

○ Survival ○ Who, or what nation, resembles a mad bull? Two individuals are striving to restrain it with ropes about its head. "A straight column with square capital and base" represents Egoity. Some are didactic and self assertive, lacking flexibility or deference. Two swords crossing each other suggest litigation and Quarreling. One can win a point without being repellent. "A tiger standing Guard over its young litter" is watchful and vigilantly devoted; ferocious in defense of kindred. In a dark gloomy chamber a person on a bed sees brightness on the horizon, a promise of Recovery. "A master instructing his pupil" possesses executive ability through patient investigation and psychological insight, Elucidated for the benefit of students. Power in human character endures through eternal stout-heartedness, symbolized by "a petrified forest." The keyword is Survival. "A luminous cloud, isolated, sails in the azure sky, suddenly opens, and pours out an influence like a shower of pearls of variegated hue." These last two symbols are prominent in the horoscope of the woman Sri Aurobindo called The Mother. Her followers believe that she bestows on them "numerous celestial gifts." Thursday ○ Survival ○ Moon in Libra goes void-of-course at 3:23p PT. Karmically sobering third of this week ends around 7p or 8p PT. Cosmic PiperTuesday, March 3, 2026

° Favoring Wind? ° "A squirrel hiding from hunters" knows when to be loyal to his self-interest. His independence of spirit is good judgment as Caution. But this need not be the Isolation of "a man upon a raft floating in the open sea." "Let him spread his sails in hope, follow his chart with care and trust in Heaven for a favoring wind." If he has sufficient incisive Directness he could follow swiftly a path in life already marked out for him, like "An arrow in flight passing through a cloud of smoke." Some will abide by a mechanical system reminiscent of "An old-fashioned clock," following rules and disciplines to the letter. Others will take up Scholarship of a lofty, speculative character, as if climbing a ladder to the heavens, aiding the elevation and salvation of mankind. Some have a mission of a military or semi-military sort. "A hand holds a sword, not for indiscriminate slaughter but to defend the right." "Thou art a child of the sun, and wilt be armed with the necessary power and authority to execute thy Mission." Who can explain or elucidate that mission? "An angel blowing a trumpet." This could be a popular preacher or lecturer with a message bearing on the social or spiritual condition of mankind. Let us hope that those in war zones will somehow be seated at "a table set for an evening meal." Nature is prodigal, and supports us in festive enjoyments fostering Familiarity with one another. Wednesday ° Favoring Wind? ° Moon in Virgo goes void-of-course at 6:54a PT until entering Libra at 10:57a PT. Karmically sobering third of this week is at its most intense today, ending very late Thursday evening.
