° Expedients Explosion Wandering Tradition ° Expedients. "The moon" indicates someone cantankerous, a practical business person allied with the world's ways, never short of expedients. Explosion. Still we have the unease of "a column of smoke and burst of flame." Iran, Gaza, Ukraine? "Exercise caution in every undertaking." Wandering. "A helical scroll" indicates an undecided, fickle nature lost in a multitude of projects and imaginings. This circuitous, chaotic mind would benefit from healthy, virile, directive companionship. Tradition. What would also help would be "the surviving tokens of an enduring stability on which the ephemeral and superficial are unable to make any impact," likened to "an ancient pottery bowl filled with violets." The self may anchor itself in an overall continuance of meaning and identity. Wednesday ° Expedients Explosion Wandering Tradition ° Moon in Gemini goes void-of-course at 3:01p PT until entering Cancer at 9:12p PT. Karmically sobering third of this week begins today, at its most intense Thursday, ending by Friday evening. Cosmic Piper

Message for Tuesday 24 February 2026 • Explosion Wounding Efficiency Transcendence • Explosion. Mercury shall turn retrograde Thursday and has already been in its Dark Hermetic Epoch since February 11th. Plus, Mars is exactly square Uranus giving force to the symbol of the degree where Mercury is stuck, "a column of smoke ascending on a gigantic scale followed by a terrible burst of flame." We saw how that worked out yesterday in Mexico. Today? Let's pray. A State of the Union address is planned. Odd disturbing events are unplanned, vis a vis Iran, Epstein files, the blizzard, flight cancelations, and interpersonal tensions. Let's be patient with one another. Wounding. "Two daggers are crossed." Sounds like Mars square Uranus. If not military battles or preparations, it can be contention and litigation (which almost seem normal in the Trump era). There can be "a paucity of friends and a radical want of harmony." Some Democrats are planning to boycott the State of the Union address. Efficiency. Impersonal analysis could supplant or ameliorate fury. The symbol is "a hydrometer." Well, meteorologists are going to be doing a lot of measuring of temperature, snowfall and blizzard casualties. There could be "exceptional ability in manipulating the fundamental complexities of living." Transcendence. "Dense fog hangs over an extensive plain, but there is sunshine above." Frustrations and confusions in worldly matters are not too terrible because one has attained to "great heights in matters spiritual and transcendental."

• Explosion Collapse Discipline Uniqueness • Explosion. Iran? Ukraine-Russia? Other trouble spots? "A column of smoke ascends on a gigantic scale, followed by a terrible burst of flame." Charubel says, "This degree is subtle; its events are sudden, always falling out unexpectedly, and generally disastrously." But he hastens to add: "THIS IS NOT FATE." Collapse. We already know that 41 million Americans will be afflicted by rare blizzard conditions, with schools closed in New York and Boston. "A man falls between the parting timbers of a broken bridge." Sepharial warns against "hazards both commercial and physical." "Let him keep to the broad highway of life and not take an isolated path. He who aspires to rulership is a misanthrope; the humble man has safety with the people." Preciseness. With Luna conjoining Uranus while squaring Mars, maybe a semi-military stance is needed. "Officers are on dress parade" though not necessarily in battle mode. Ritual, dignity and protocol rehearse group values through schooled self-assurance. (A possible cure for the first two paragraphs.) Uniqueness. There is always an odd one in any group, such as "a butterfly with the right wing more perfectly formed." Abnormalities do not have to be handicaps if the self mobilizes its powers to take full advantage of significant differences.

 Messages for Weekend of February 21st and 22nd

Saturday 21: Directness. Many feel they have a path in life already marked out, and are swift to follow it. Headstrong, they pursue usually inaccessible locations without vacillation. "An arrow is in flight, passing through a cloud of smoke." Defense. Symbolically there is "a trilithon consisting of two pillars of stone with a horizontal thwart; within it a strong iron gate." Security arises from prudence, intelligence and stability of character. Some "prove to be a refuge for the weak and a protection to all who stand in need of a friend." Plenty. "A man sits at a table with a knife putting finishing touches on food which lies before him." This is good living or good fortune. Serenity. "A man is turning his back on his passions and teaching from his experience." Says Dr. Jones: "The self assimilates itself to its own higher vision and so achieves an outer selflessness." Moon in Aries goes void-of-course at 3:13a PT until entering Taurus at 3:32p PT. Sunday 22: Protecting. There is attachment and devotion to kindred or one's extended family circle, combined with energy and patience. "A tiger is standing guard over its young litter." Plenty. A person sitting at a table preparing some food is fortunate in things of the world, harmless, and fond of good living. Serenity. "A man turning his back on his passions and teaching from his experience" accomplishes much through a genuine peace of inner understanding. Benefit. At "a church bazaar" one capitalizes on enduring human allegiances, communing with all through warmth of personality and revivifying contacts. It's not gambling but game-like sharing.

° Forefathers Labor Aptitude Conviviality ° Forefathers. Divine instincts may be filtered through faith in conservative religious truths. "A man walks in darkness with an old-fashioned lantern in his hand." Labor. In rustic simplicity some work in orchards or woods, maybe building a house or founding a colony, endowed with good will and an earnest soul. "A man stripped to the waist is hewing timber." Aptitude. Meher Baba had a large, loving presence and spoke with flourishing hand signals, so often looked like "a big bear sitting down and waving all its paws" which was the symbol for Venus's position in his birth chart and Mars's position today. There is "a willingness to dramatize the self's potentials to any necessary extent." Conviviality. There is "a taste for high living" plus a generous, hospitable disposition. Sometimes considered coarse and self-indulgent, one is actually bountiful and humane. This paragraph and the first may need to be reconciled. "A feast is prepared upon platters." Friday ° Forefathers Labor Aptitude Conviviality ° Moon in Aries Karmically sobering third of this week ends in late afternoon

° Indifference Curtailment Refinement Angel ° Indifference. With the karmically sobering third of this week upon us, plus the Dark or Slow Hermetic Epoch, we might feel inoffensive, dilatory, careless and haphazard, allowing things to drift like "a chest floating on the open sea." Curtailment. We also might look back on our lives and regret some choices which ended our ambitions before our goals could be reached. Yet we could remain contented with the endeavors and plans left to us. Refinement. Comfort and everyday convenience are symbolized by "a rug placed on a floor for children to play." Adults as well as young ones concentrate on playful efforts toward self-development. Angel. Younghoon Kim has an extraordinary IQ and proclaims to the world that he has found Jesus and the Bible to be the true, correct path. He is "a preacher or lecturer publishing some important message" like "An angel blowing a trumpet." What angel is getting your attention? Thursday ° Indifference Curtailment Refinement Angel ° Moon in Pisces goes void-of-course at 7;24a PT until entering Aries at 11:40a PT. Karmically sobering third of this week is at its most intense today, gone by Friday evening.. Cosmic Piper

♧ Documents Clearance Recovery Liberty ♧ Documents. I leave the interpretation of "a hand holding a roll of paper or parchment" to you. Copies of legal or other public documents, perhaps. Clearance. "A woman disappointed and disillusioned" can nevertheless "press on and gain increased powers with every setback." A seeming denial of opportunity is really a challenge to genuine self-realization. Recovery. "A man's chamber is dark and gloomy; yet the horizon looks bright." From heavy affliction we rise to health and other comforts. Liberty. "A wild horse is leaping a barrier." This connotes a person who is free and open in expressing thoughts and feelings; adventurous and contemptuous of peril. Hey! Yesterday's New Moon marked the beginning of a Fire Horse year in Chinese astrology! The Horse is said to be popular, a hard worker, and brimming over with personality.
