Saturday 22nd: 

• Trusting Approbation •

Whining, complaining and lamenting could

Usurp the place of calm activity. 

Rabbits dressed in clothes and on parade 

Project themselves into Approbation.

Suspicion can be poison; one can trust 

An unsealed letter Confidently.

A display of the aurora borealis 

Is like an original, brilliant, forceful mind. 

Indulging too freely in luxuries is like eating 

Too much fruit from a loaded tree, yet

People possess fine tastes and accomplishments.

An old sage sitting by his midnight lamp

Studies a problem with grand mental ambition. 

A gigantic will makes him a true magician. 

• Trusting Approbation •

• Toward Ascendancy and Union • 

1 "Mathematical instruments on a table with a sheet of blank white paper" hint that we might neglect our mathematical (or other) abilities rather than use them wisely. 

2 Someone important to you is or was the founder of a society, school of philosophy, or great movement. 

3 "A mermaid" symbolizes "the nascent eagerness of the soul for a private and personal participation in every possible facet of self-fulfillment. The individual forever seeks and responds to the creative needs of life itself." The keyword is Importunity. 

4 "A man is walking with two women, their arms linked in his." A light, joyous spirit could be duplicitous, making for trouble in love or marriage. The keyword is Vacillation. 

5 The quiet moments of experience are a real opportunity for self-orientation. "Two fairies on a moonlit night" are magically rising above whatever may threaten their well-being. The keyword is Ascendancy. 

6 Sepharial gives a beautiful interpretation of "Two golden circles joined by a blue ribbon tied in a double bow." This is someone kind and benevolent, fortunate in one or two marriages, an idealist loving peace and concord, making many sincere friends. The keyword is Union.

° Sustaining Ascendancy °

0 You may find it helpful to choose one to three of the following paragraphs as pertinent to your current situation. Near the end of the day you might revisit all six for further light. 

1 Some will "do well by dealing with what lies deep in the earth."

2 "Many little birds on the limb of a large tree" could symbolize "a happy lightness of the human spirit as it rejoices in its infinitely varying relations with the beautiful and the good." The keyword is Ramification. 

3 "A mummer's mask" might belong to a coquette or someone given to mimicry and imitation, simulating the character of others, with a natural aptitude for theatricals. 

4 "In the center of a high mountain plateau one of the ancient magi is performing his matutinal devotions. The lord of day ascends on the luminous horizon." 

5 "Two fairies on a moonlit night" are exalting fancy as a dynamic factor in all self-realization. There is a transforming sensitivity or a healing imagination. The keyword is Ascendancy. 

6 "Two hands are linked in a close grip of friendship." Many are demonstrating "a rich, unselfish nature, capable of those little greatnesses in daily life which make a person beloved, if not remarkable, and probably instrumental in forming some large associations for social co-operation or intellectual improvement." The keyword is Sustaining. 

Thursday ° Sustaining Ascendancy °

• Overcoming Misanthropy to find Daybreak • 

1 Charubel warns us to avoid cellars, basements or other low places, to escape the danger of something falling from above. 

2 "A dagger," says Sepharial, is "an ominous sign!" Mars in Donald Trump's birth chart is at this degree of quarrels, arguments and impulsive actions. Many today will be on the alert to attack and oppose. They may be "very executive, but by no means constructive in disposition, hence liable to go through life like a tornado, remarked but not esteemed."

3 "A pillar of black marble roughly hewn" denotes someone melancholy and misanthropic. He or she may make a bad match, with probable separation. The keyword is Solitariness. 

4 "Game birds feathering their nests" are consciously participating in a group destiny, justifying their own being by fulfilling the expectation of others. The keyword is Meticulousness. 

5 "Daybreak" is a symbol of the cycles of change as an ultimate assurance to the human heart. "Reality is ever a beginning in the sense of the immediacy it offers the individual." The keyword is Genesis. 

6 "A star surrounded with many rings" is positive and assuring. "Thou never need be cast down. Thou wilt meet with trials, but fear not, 'Thy bread shall be given thee, and thy water is sure.'"

• Under the Rainbow •

1 This paragraph duplicates paragraph 1 of Monday's Message.

2 This duplicates paragraph 2 of Monday's report. 

3 This is the same as paragraph 3 of Monday's message.

4 "A wild boar" represents someone unusual, sometimes coarse or impolite but brutally honest. He has "a life of his own, a sphere of his own and pleasures of his own."

5 "A fair woman looking at her face in a handglass" may be deemed "frivolous, improvident and foolish, laughing in the face of fate."

6 But there is "a rainbow" overhead, a consistent ordering throughout the world in which we find ourselves, lending us "very real spiritual power and presence in all personal effort and desire." The keyword is Significance.

• Steadfastness Brings Significance • 

1 It is not necessary to continue any given action to the point of self-cancellation, so it need not happen that "an automobile is wrecked by a train." We have control. "The ultimate obligation of the individual is to himself, and not to the narrow and momentary direction of circumstances." The keyword is Dispersion. 

2 A better form of dispersion is "men getting large granite stones out of a rock." They succeed with the most ordinary things of this world, even become wealthy by means others would consider beneath their notice. 

3 "A thick wood stands at the back of a field in which a man is plowing with an ox." The keyword is Steadfastness. 

4 An ordinary looking, cleanshaven man is fond of conventional pleasures and popular amusements. 

5 "A centaur, half man and half horse" subtly and changefullly simulates the virtues and vices of others, often diplomatically. He may alternate between paths of debasing instinct and high endeavor.

6 "A rainbow" assures us of divine participation in the most unpromising of human relationships. Nature will co-operate effectively with every vision we choose to keep alive. There is very real spiritual power and presence in all personal effort and desire. The keyword is Significance. 

Monday • Steadfastness Brings Significance •

Moon in Libra goes void-of-course at 4:32a PT until entering Scorpio at 2:47p PT.

Saturday 15th:

1 We are early in a crescent New Moon period, so some matters are premature. 

2 A gladiator, armed and ready for the fray, should calm down. 

3 "A man felling a tree" finds contentment in simple work. He or she is a good friend. 

4 "A cat arguing with a mouse" symbolizes "a gift for persuading others to accept the motives of self and to cooperate with its ends." The keyword is Justification. 

5 "An untidy, unkempt man" seems "insensitive to every exaction or reward of the world. Paradoxically enough the bringing of reality to center is a development and sharing of its potentialities." The keyword is Imperturbability. 

6 "The yard of a farmhouse between high mountains is entered by a white gate." Country life is good, or something white in an urban scene. 

Moon in Virgo is void-of-course until entering Libra at 7:21a PT. 

Karmically sobering third of this week is with us until Monday evening. 

Sunday 16th:

"'If it is at all possible for you, take pity upon us and help us.' 'If it is possible!' said Jesus. 'Everything is possible to one who has faith.'"

--Mark, chapter 9
