° 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.

° Not Alone ° Is there Evil in the world or humanity? As a philosophical and religious idealist, I say No. Ultimately evil is illusory and the Good triumphs. However, Charubel points out that some deceivers practice black magic with the intent to injure or harm. That could be evident today, but fortunately "a man walking in darkness holds an old-fashioned lantern in his hand," that is, finds his way out of every difficulty guided by religious or moral truths taught by his Forefathers. Documents may be significant today, maybe related to taxes, rent, or, publicly, the Epstein files. "A high flagstaff with a red flag floating on the top" means that Revolutionists are active; certainly in Iran. "A man in armor, fully equipped and bearing a shield" is a lucid symbol for what may be going on in Iran. Many are cautious and circumspect, brave and dauntless, defended by the goodwill of friends and associates. There is Security. At a more personal level, there is a loving, sweet Guarding of younger or less accomplished individuals. "Concentric circles, one within the other" are mutually sustaining. Commerce goes on in "a public market." The converging and conflicting interests of many are organized in arrangements for mutual benefit. Talent is magical. "A little white lamb, a child and a Chinese servant" may seem scattered divisions of labor, but they have an integrating significance for one another. Nothing acts alone or in a vacuum.

Saturday 28th: Sensuality. "A woman is reclining upon a couch, scantily attired." There can be ease, luxury, and the pleasures of the senses. At worst this could be indolence, ineptitude and regret. Chains of flowers are difficult to break, but with satiety the opiate fails. Emanation. A butterfly emerging from its chrysalis symbolizes the continually self-renewing purity of man's mind. Ideas emerge from the formless matrix of one's inner being. There is uncompromising faith in the wonders of a continuing creation. Sensitivity. "Spiritist phenomena" are more frequent and convincing during the Mercury retrograde period (through March 20th). There can be "conscious cooperation with the potentials of an immortal reality." There is "exceptional ability in shaping every immediate aspect of life to a personal convenience." We can sense the presence of relatives and friends "on the other side." Dedication. "Men seeking illumination" are dramatizing some form of an apostolic succession or living tradition of spiritual achievement. "The divine spirit is fundamentally a matrix of itself." Moon in Leo beginning at 0:18a PT Sunday March 1st: From the Book of Acts, Chapter 9: And there was a certain disciple at Damascus, named Ananias; and to him said the Lord in a vision, Ananias. And he said, Behold, I am here, Lord. And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the street which is called Straight, and enquire in the house of Judas for one called Saul of Tarsus: for, behold, he prayeth. And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, Brother Saul, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, and be filled with the Holy Ghost. And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized. And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God. Savitri by Sri Aurobindo, pp. 682-3: In the orchestral largeness of his mind All contrary seekings their close kinship knew, Rich-hearted, wonderful to each other met In the mutual marvelling of their myriad notes And dwelt like brothers of one family Who had found their common and mysterious home.

• Testing Immediacy Prostrating Speculation- Testing. Is a quest for the secrets of nature scientific, religious, or both? "On a table lie a number of investigative chemical instruments." One's mind could be analytical and acute, resolving observations into principles and causes. One is wary of things and persons not known, but animated concerning favorite subjects. Immediacy. An enthusiastic desire to be at work mobilizes everything around us in our own interest. "A tree is felled and sawed." If succumbing to the Mercury retrograde syndrome we might surrender unnecessarily to hard or unrewarding effort. Imagination too has a place. Prostrating. "A woman of dark countenance stands over a prostrate man." A malignant or sinister influence from womankind? It could be "a man's undoing through weakness, a woman's victory through dishonor." Or something better if we choose wisely. Speculation. "A warrior in helmet draws a long bow to which the fletch is duly set." A strong character with a lofty aim and a gift of prophecy? Or carelessness, vanity and self-inflation? Let's keep our minds settled on hopes of high achievement.

▪︎ Cleavage Immediacy Speculation Pilgrimage ▪︎ Cleavage. Mercury turns retrograde at 1:48a ET (until March 20). Things may seem regressive, backward or tentative. For today, "a lunar crescent and a flash of lightning emerge from a cloud." This suggests strong directive force, possibly going amiss through bad judgment. Immediacy. "A tree felled and sawed" suggests joy in energy expended, and satisfaction in the efficient use of skills and materials. But under the aegis of a Mars-Uranus square there could be "unnecessary surrender to hard or unrewarding effort." Speculation. One should watch out for the hazards of life, blundered into through carelessness despite lofty aims. "A warrior draws a long bow to which the fletch is duly set." There could be prophetic insight, or else overeagerness because Mercury is retrograde. Pilgrimage. "An old man with a pack on his back and a long staff is walking down a hill." There is quiet resignation and Indifference of spirit, combined with singular character and remarkable powers. Patience befits a pilgrim.

° 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.

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.

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.

° 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?

° Quarreling Pilgrimage Conviction Emanation ° Quarreling. A repellent disposition quarrels unnecessarily. That is apart from any necessary progressive litigation which might get headlines. Pilgrimage. "An old man with a pack on his back and a staff is walking down a hill." He has followed an adventurous fortune and livelihood, precariously, but with quiet resignation and detachment of spirit. He has a singular character and remarkable powers. Conviction. "A big white dove, a message bearer" signifies a transcendental or superior wisdom from which we may always receive inspiration and assurance. Personal desires are ordered within a cosmic framework. Emanation. A butterfly is emerging from its chrysalis. Man feels that nature springs from her overall potential as spontaneously as his own ideas come forth from the formless matrix of his inner being. There is faith in the promise of existence and the wonders of a continuing creation.

Saturday 14th: Salvage. "A wreck is floating on a peaceful sea." One should not attempt the high seas of fortune, but keep to the broad highways of life and pursue the common path, thereby retrieving the family fortunes. Analysis. Do we need to make a public accounting of ourselves? Or would that be giving up to the intrusion of the "surveillance state"? "A man is unmasked." There are greater or more wonderful reasons for being. Ripeness. "A field of ripe corn is ready for the sickle." Health of body, peace of mind, a happy disposition, and prosperity in mundane transactions could be our lot. Possession. Some have the uninterrupted joys of continuous living on a prosperous estate. "A stately mansion is surrounded by trees in an expanse of pastureland." A pleasant and frank nature attracts friends and entertains them within wide sympathies. Moon in Capricorn goes void-of-course at 5:33p PT until entering Aquarius at 10:18p PT / Sunday 15th: Sword. U.S.-Iran? Ukraine-Russia? "A hand with a sword in it is enveloped by a halo of golden light. It is not for indiscriminate slaughter but to defend the right." The right, IMO, is the Iranian population brutally persecuted by their "own" government. "The inhabitants of this red planet will not see thee as thou art seen by thy compeers." Crown Prince Pahlavi? Immediacy. "A tree felled and sawed" is serving man's desire to mobilize everything around him in his own interest. Concern. "A forest fire quenched" could have been misfortune to be suffered but became a successful adventure in broad social responsibility. What cause do you see as deserving your self-expenditure? Illumination. "In a niche are set a lamp and a book or missal." Secrets of nature are revealed to long and patient study. Devotion sustains patient vigils. One pursues religion, philosophy, or the fine arts. Moon in Aquarius (since 1:18a ET) ○ Weekend of February 14th and 15th 2026 ○ Cosmic PiperThursday, February 12, 2026

Message for Friday 13 February 2026 ° Downfall Probity Spiral Accord ° Downfall. There could be chaos and confusion, like walking in the dark. One should beware of pitfalls on unfamiliar paths. By the directing hand of a wise friend or the overarching love of Heaven one can escape danger. Probity. This seldom-used word has nothing to do with "probing." It means integrity, uprightness, honesty. "A watchdog is standing guard" to protect us from mistakes and keep us faithful to ideals. Spiral. Some lives seem to resemble revolving wheels, now darkened, now lightened, full of contradictions. But at the moment one wants to give up in despair, one climbs onto a circle of upward-revolving light, a spiral path "shining brighter and brighter unto the perfect day." Accord. The difficult third of this week ends Friday afternoon. "Three men are advancing arm in arm." There arises friendship and social intercourse. There could be too much fondness for pleasure, but there is happily received instruction or oversight. Teachers teaching one another are amicable and esteemed.
