• Gravity, Conformity, Profundity •


1 We start with the keyword Poverty for "a solitary rock jutting up from a waste of sand." There may be a lack of executive direction and purpose. (The moon is void-of-course most of the day. ) But there is fixity, steadiness, and gravity of character.


2 More cheerily, "an escutcheon containing a harp and a gauntlet" suggests tastes toward the musical or military worlds, or both, with a peculiar admixture of gentleness/playfulness with irritability/gravity. 


3 A caterer to the public, or manager of a restaurant or inn, could play a role in your life. 


4 "A priest performing a marriage ceremony" is fulfilled through established rituals which bless others' aspirations. The keyword is Conformity. 


5 Does one have "unlimited personal capacity for rising to the issue of the moment on any level of experience"? Then one has "a quiver filled with arrows." The keyword is Preparation.


6 "A man has a very old-looking book before him, with the appearance of some ancient record." Either yourself or someone important to you grapples with abstruse studies; is a profound thinker.

• Provision leading to Conviviality • 


1 "A dangerous, angry bull" is willful and defensive or offensive. He feels, "What I can get is my own."


2 "An industrial strike" is another form of assertiveness, trying to overcome perceived unfairness, with the keyword Protest. 


3 One can secure protection, meeting every demand of existence advantageously, like "a hen scratching for her chicks." Consistent normality is rewarded. The keyword is Provision. 


4 At the opposite pole, some, of frail character, cling to "a cluster of faded exotics, very sweet and sickly to the smell." They live in whatever pleasures, luxuries, and fictitious stimulants they can afford. The keyword is Satiety. 


5 More soberly, "A burly man in an apron" could be the manager of a restaurant or inn. He caters to the public. 


6 You and others could enjoy "a festival, or occasion for the assembling together of villagers in gala costume." Many will feel sociable, friendly and flexible, with a taste for luxuries and festivities. There is Conviviality..

• Reformation or Unfoldment •


1 Some individuals seem to be self-centered, complaining and lamenting rather than acting and achieving. Do you give again? Jesus said "Feed my sheep" in the last chapter of John's gospel. 


2 Others feel, perhaps justly, that they are underpaid or exploited, and so organize or participate in "an industrial strike." The keyword is Protest. 


3 "An artificial globe" is gazed at by a student, traveler or discoverer. 


4 "A small church" may harbor small minds unless its members attain to the spirit of Jesus's teachings. 


5 Maybe one of its members or pastors will turn out to be "a flash of lightning," a reformer overturning limited beliefs, a Pioneering source of illumination. 


6 Whatever happens, "the germ grows into knowledge and life." "Every possible phase of self-existence is established in more eternal lineaments." The keyword is Unfoldment. 


Wednesday • Reformation or Unfoldment •

Independence Day Weekend 2026

 Messages for Weekend of July 4th and 5th, 2026


Saturday 4th:


¤ Determination toward Knowledge and Benevolence ¤


1 "A man delving" may want to work with his or her hands even on a holiday. We are fastidious about details. 


2 "One hand is slightly flexed with a very prominent thumb." We either rule our environment or surrender our potentials. The keyword is Determination. 


3 However, there could be some danger through sexual allurement, passionate emotions and "the watery element." The steady effort of the first two paragraphs could be reversed. The symbol is "a reversed triangle upon a red ground." 


4 Are you aiming at a politics-free holiday? Good luck, because whether Left or Right, the ravings of "a radical magazine" are being thrust at you. The keyword is Tangency.


5 Calmer alternatives are available. "A caduceus stands between two moons, one crescent and one gibbous." There is pursuit of Knowledge by a penetrating mind and retentive memory. There could be travel, scholarship and versatility. Moods change in rapid alternation from despondency to hope. Let's ride those moods into a Happy Independence Day!


6 Along with "a gentleman with a number of ladies in a carriage" (car, train, bus, plane,scene). There are presents or other benefits, offered with kindliness and benevolence. Happy 4th!

0 In an unusual situation, the first four symbols for the day are identical with the first four given yesterday (Thursday July 2), to which you may turn for rereading. In addition, for today:


5 "An untidy, unkempt man" may be taking advantage of (a) the moon void-of-course, (b) Mercury retrograde, and (c) the holiday weekend to say "What's the big deal, whether I shave or shower or comb my hair? Are there not more important things?" The keyword is Imperturbability.


6 In the holiday weekend, we develop "a universal richness of experience through which we share the magic of self-renewal." The out-of-season symbol is "Holly and Mistletoe," with the keyword Ritualization. Personality develops via colorful imagination.

• From Melancholy to Benevolence •


1 We take the hardest symbol first; in fact one of the worst among the 1080 (3×360): "A dagger lying beside a skull." It denotes cruelty and destructive, fatal tendencies; also taciturniity, melancholy and Undoing. As Lightworkers we need to oppose all such trends in those around us and ourselves. Positive thinking, kindness, scripture reading and prayer are cures. 


2 Beneath "a cypress tree" languishes someone of a mournful, fretful, gloomy disposition. He or she needs more faith in immortality. 


3 "A Chinese woman nursing a baby with a message" is seeking to embody the universal values of the human race. The keyword is Materialization.


4 "A gentleman with a number of ladies in a carriage" is good and kind, liberal with presents, bubbling over with benevolence. 


5 "A bright, pale blue star shines over a clear lake." The mind of someone peaceful, harmonious and intuitive is capable of lofty and sustained flights. Sri Aurobindo was born with the sun at this degree. "He will shine like a star in his sphere of life, and will have many followers." Voila!


6 "The garden of the Tuileries" displays for all to enjoy the graceful and exquisite self-expressions of those with social position and wealth. The keyword is Luxury.

° Past Troubles toward Reborn Luxury °


1 Does one find oneself in "a stranded vessel on a low, sandy beach"? In avoiding obvious rocks, one has run upon unsuspended sandbanks. Yet there is hope for gaining a new start. 


2 Most who read these reports are Lightworkers. So they will not be misled by negative symbols such as "A hawk is seen hovering over a nest of young birds." They will invoke protection through caution, positive affirmation and prayer. 


3 The ridiculous exaggerates human nature instructively. "A clown is making grimaces." The absurd stimulates toward something better. The keyword is Inimitability.


4 Mercury went retrograde Monday at 10:38a PT. Revamping, reviewing, reconsidering and repenting are natural over the next three weeks of attemped rebirth. That planet remains in a degree signifying a pear tree as a living talisman for healing discord and strife. 


5 "A young girl playing on a lyre" is gay, fond of youthful amusements; musical and artistic. 


6 "The garden of the Tuileries" represents the self-confidence and authority which come to man through social position and wealth. All can participate in the full gamut of satisfactions developed and cherished by all. The keyword is Luxury.

• Mutual Fostering •


1 "A large diamond not completely cut" is some work in process, yielding gradually to your arts and skills to bring out its full sparkle. The keyword is Latency. 


2 By contrast, "a bulbous plant pushing its way upward from beneath the sod to unfold its beauties" is waiting for nothing. Its soul-force unites with a strong will. 


3 "A human face is surmounted by a coiled serpent. A raised hand also appears." There is keen understanding of the laws of life. There is introspection and discretion. There is strong power of concentration plus diplomacy, and therefore success in commanding others. The keyword is Penetration. 


4 Mercury's station remains at the degree "a pear tree loaded with large ripe fruit" signifying "a living talisman for the healing of discord and strife; a peace-maker."  


5 "Santa Claus is filling stockings furtively." We appreciate nature's largesse and society's favors by maintaining the ritual through which values are kept alive in human hearts. The keyword is Prodigality. 


6 "Around the roots of a wide-spreading oak tree are many young shoots, while birds sing among its branches." Honor and esteem from more than one generation return to shelter and comfort those whom one has sheltered and comforted. The keyword is Fruitfulness.

3 "A spider in the corner of a room intently watches the giddy dance of flies heedlessly approaching the confines of his dominion." Shrewd lawyers and good detectives are active. 


4 A person abounding in goodness is a living talisman for healing discord, a peacemaker. The symbol is "a pear tree loaded with large ripe fruit."

0 It's hard to know what the symbols for the following day could mean when I'm recording them. But three of them for Monday were so accurate they helped me make some good choices during the day. Some readers are also confirming their relevance. Thanks, Inner Orbit.


1 "A broken wheel lies upon the ground while nearby a horse grazes." Laissez-faire drifting? Still, minor good fortune tides one over. 


2 "A cat arguing with a mouse" clearly has the advantage, but litigation should be value-centered. The keyword is Justification. 


3 "The dark side of the moon" represents "a strange character whom no one will ever understand." "A magician, but not of any known type; not insane but Moon-set!" There is a gulf between such an one and ordinary humanity. 


4 Have you been unusually conscious of your food intake recently? "A well-appointed table has the remnants of a feast lying upon it." A worldly appetite could be excessive and reckless. There is richness of heart and camaraderie, but maybe too much Sensuality. 


5 A good, kind, benevolent disposition bubbles through "a gentleman with a number of ladies in a carriage." He is liberal with his presents. 


6 Genuine maturity heightens the appreciation of "a woman pursued by mature romance." Eternal promise underlies all objective existence. The soul capitalizes on its more enduring potentials. The keyword is Persuasion.

Weekend of June 20th & 21st 2026

 Message for Weekend of June 20th and 21st, 2026 


I used the time I would ordinarily spend writing the symbolic forecast-meditation to compose instead a eulogy for my cousin Barbara, who passed from this world last Friday. I hope you may find in it something interesting or inspiring. 


My cousin, Barbara Jo Kappler Beck, 1943-2026


How does one sum up such an interesting human being? I won't try for that, but will relate various reminiscences as they occur to me. 


She was about a year younger than I, and we had a lot of fun together as kids. Our interests sometimes coincided. We played card games together. I enjoyed riding my bike to her family house for get-togethers or picnics. What stands out in these memories is her cheerful sense of humor. She could make fun of people in a subtle way which was neither cutting nor derisive. Maybe "Barb" was an appropriate nickname for her. 


She loved her cat Phoebe and would regale me with tales of her latest adventures, such as the time she got "treed". 


My mother Margaret and her brother Ike Kappler, Barbara's dad, would trade off as hosts for delightfully memorable family picnics attended also by my sister Sue and Barbara's brother Jim. So much joy and laughter. 


After graduating from high school, Barbara and I entered a new phase of togetherness as workers at the Bella Villa Motel purchased and managed by my father Howard. Both my parents were glad to have Barbara on hand as a ready assistant. In these pre-John days, of course Barb kept her eyes open for possible links to unattached males in the clientele. Something started when she dated one of them briefly, but didn't last long. "Just get over it" was Barb's lugubrious advice to herself.


Her bedroom and mine were on the top floor of the motel's living quarters, adjoining an open rooftop where we often sat together and chatted in the setting sunlight, pondering life's deep mysteries. 


Our paths parted when I moved to New York City. So I was not in touch with her when she and John got together, the biggest blessing of her life. Therefore I'm not writing about her later years of married life in Wisconsin. 


I'll mention one thing: Her magnificent service to her dear and my dear Aunt Edna. She had health problems in her later years and was living in Florida. Barbara visited her frequently to assist her. This was deep family loyalty, one of Barbara's wonderful characteristics. As I write in Seattle I can look up to see the wall hanging that Aunt Edna wanted me to have and that Barbara kindly mailed me years ago. 


Likewise, she was loyal to her amazing brother Jim. For example, she wrote a moving eulogy for him when he, one of my best friends ever, departed this world way too soon.


Barbara, we miss you and we love you. I don't know exactly how the next world works, but I hope you and Jim and Aunt Edna and your parents are getting together for a heavenly picnic. 


I haven't mentioned religion, but it goes without saying that you and John have been walking the talk of your faith. He says that in recent weeks you report that you have been talking with Jesus. Amen!


May our precious Lord continue to bless you and confer all good upon you. 


Amen


-- Cousin Hugh

▪︎ Through Pessimism toward Ardour •


1 "In a gloomy sky filled with scudding clouds, blackbirds struggle against the wind." Pessimism can deprive us of faith and perseverance. Keywords are Doubt and Change. Dreams require confidence for fulfillment.


2 But confidence should not diverge into rufhlessness or inhumanity. "A mounted Indian with scalp locks" couild develop unimpeachable control over life through self-discipline. (But the scalp locks belong in a museum.) The keyword is Command. 


3 Similarly, "a man flogging a boy" is not a prediction, which would be evil, but a warning. Punishment just makes things worse, as those developing deep understanding of human nature come to realize. 


4 Maybe you'll enjoy a favorite restaurant, actually or in memory. "A burly man with an apron before him" could be its manager or an inn keeper. 


5 Through some kinds of imitation, vicarious participation in life is enhanced. Are you, or someone you know, "the first mockingbird in spring"? The keyword is Quickening. 


6 Spiritual faculties are in evidence. "In the midst of an aureole of clouds appears a triangle of flame, and an eye within the triangle." Some minds are exalted, aspiring, noble, and hopeful, full of the divine fire of a worthy ambition. The keyword is Ardour.

5 In "a baronial mansion with spacious park abounding with gigantic trees" dwells a student of antiquity who takes but little interest in new inventions--a profound scholar possessing sound judgment. 


6 "A large and well cultivated tract of land" bears the keyword Fruitfulness. It would appear to be an answer to the worries of paragraph 2. There is a genial temperament, healthy body, appreciation of nature's beauties, a large family and many friends.

1 Today should be smoother than Monday and Tuesday, but still, some individuals could be proud, superficial, fretful and peevish, symbolized by "toys or common elements of glass and tinsel." Loving one's neighbor as oneself is not always easy, requiring spiritual evolution.

3 "Two crossed swords forming an escutcheon" symbolize contention but also Prowess or courage and strength. 


4 "A young man of disheveled appearance sits on a barren rock by the sea, weeping." He is dependent, confiding and sympathetic, but disappointed in love and Melancholy. 


5 "A gypsy coming out of the forest" has found the resources of all nature available for his exploitation. There is self-release through a joy in the accomplishments of the moment. The keyword is Expenditure. 


6 "A jewelry shop" has the keyword Preservation. Personal display is part of the kaleidoscopic capacity of the world at large for producing and reproducing immediate realities with which to deal, and vision is shaped to a larger dimension.

Saturday 13th:


1 The moon is in its waning crescent phase until the New Moon late Sunday night. Energy levels are low. "An old oak stands alone upon a desolate moorland." Some feel Abandoned by kith and kin. 


2 "A man stands on a lonely plain, weeping." We may be inclined to give up to despondency, lacking strength and moral courage. But the struggle of life continues, perhaps to a lesser degree. 


3 Some may buck that trend aggressively, like "a bull tossing a man with its horns." "What I can get is my own."


4 Others, more Dignified, resemble "a lion upon an elevation looking towards a rising sun." Ambitious and jealous of honors, they fancy praise and flattery. They could be apt in governing others. 


5 In contrast with paragraphs 1 and 2 we have the transiency of "wind clouds and haste," a spiritual lightness maintaining aplomb through superficial excitement. The keyword is Exaltation.

2 But the Sun does rise within the lingering night. There is a generous disposition, though one may feel "out of time and place."


3 "A youth throwing coins into a cup as if in play" loses great opportunities through eccentric tastes and amusements, perhaps living a dependent lifestyle of Indifference. 


4 Or, he could emulate "a young woman lying beneath a tree, throwing food to the birds gathering around her." She has a kind heart and a winning, generous disposition. She is happy and makes others so. She loves the beautiful in nature and the fine arts, basking in geniality, concord and fellow-feeling.

1 Every commonplace activity is exalted when life comes to fruition as a community realization. "A woman holding a bag out of a window" is Facilitating her own and others' daily routines. 


2 By contrast, "a labor demonstration" is resorted to when some property and private rights seem without validity. There can be courage in attacking major problems at the cost of minor inconvenience. The keyword is Representation. 


3 "A traveler struggles onward in the midst of a snowstorm. The brave man appears to be lost in the darkness." Yet Charubel hints, "the sun that sets on one clime rises on another."

1 "A meteor, or 'falling star'" symbolizes the Uncertainty of one with an eccentric path, though it be poetical or esthetic. 


2 "A man delving" is particular in all small matters, and partial to some form of manual labor. The finite fulfills the infinite containing it. 


3 "A battle between the swords and the torches" can be high organizational skill, bringing the magic of understanding to any specific difficulty. The keyword is Resolution. 


4 "A prodigality of resources" is immediately realized in "a cafeteria"s divisions of labor. The keyword is Supply. 


5 "Two well clad men stand together, one holding a white horse by the bridle." There is aptitude in spiritual things, dreams, visions, and strange studies. Notable persons are friends. Some are disproportionate as Influuencers. 


6 "A red tree covered with golden fruit" indicates a very positive person who by dint of work will produce something that will be a blessing to the human race, rising thereby to eminence.

0 This week, through Sunday the 14th, looks considerably better, more upbeat, than last week, yet it may start slowly. 


1 "An empty space" is occupied by "a person not disposed to settle down to any work of a plodding nature" because he or she is weak and open to extraneous influences. 


2 "A cypress tree" shelters someone fretful, mournful, and gloomy, suffering from the loss or absence of a loved one. 


3 "Blighted hopes, betrayed confidence, bereavement and void ambition" may seem the lot of "a woman standing in an attitude of dejection, covering her naked breast with the hair of her head." Though left to her own resources, she can recover with aid from the Highest. 


4 "A horseman armed moves across a desert toward some woody hills." He is a self-willed and daring pioneer, carrying out designs conceived by himself without the aid or companionship of others. Somewhat estranged and taciturn, he makes his mark through perseverance. 


5 Where do these four turn for inspiration? To "a large archaic volume." Perhaps it's the Bible, perhaps Sri Aurobindo's Savitri. There is "an assurance of illimitable resources in wisdom, a heritage that may be made manifest at any time in immediate and practical guidance." The keyword is Background. 


6 "An old man is attempting vainly to reveal the Mysteries." There is an "uncompromising integrity of higher vision and an unshakable determination to dramatize it." The keyword is Pertinacity.

1 "Dreaming when one should be working" does not add up to gain. "A man is asleep in the heat of the day with implements beside him." 


2 If he becomes more active he may seem like "a man sitting upon his heels and breaking stones with a hammer," laboring much to little profit. 


3 If interested in what others are doing, he may promulgate gossip. "A person pulls at a rope attached to a bell near the top of a tree." Some news media thrive on defamation. 


4 If politically motivated, he or she could resemble "a woman suffragist haranguing." There needs to be a mutual give-and-take in respect to real differences in point of view. The keyword is Indignation. 


5 Finally, relatively unfruitful activities could upgrade into deeds which benefit the community. "Two men are putting slates on the roof of a building." Some are lovers of peace, and promoters of good works. 


6 By the time the moon goes void-of-course in the afternoon we may be ready to relax and emulate "shellfish groping and children playing." There is "emphasis on self-discovery as the basic mode of greater reality" (at the beach?). The keyword is Emergence.

0 Venus's hard aspects with Saturn are generally melancholy, mournful, sad. One is given to the questions "Who loves me, and whom do I love? How loyal and secure is that love?" One can be extremely lonesome. Venus is square Saturn from May 20th through June 6th, at its peak from Wednesday the 27th through this weekend. Scripture reading is recommended. Some passages are Challenging and some are Comforting. We need both. God's love may seem a substitute for or supplement of human love, but at best it also guides us kindly through all human friendships and relationships. Love is eternal.

That burns apart, Light's lonely sentinel, 

In the drift and teeming of a mindless Night,

Awaiting some tremendous dawn of God, 

He saw the purpose in the works of Time. 

Even in that aimlessness a work was done 

Pregnant with magic will and change divine."

• Transformation, Rescue, Luxury • 1 "A woman is seated in an attitude of grief, holding in her hands faded lilies and roses." She has had fateful inclinations and strong passions, and may feel disgraced. 2 A person sits at a desk in a large office, writing in a ledger. There is capability in commercial pursuits. 3 During an electrical storm, a catharsis of nature clears the way for progress ahead. Human personality rises to a moment of union with the universal forces. The keyword is Transformation. 4 In a rough sea causing a wreck, a lifeboat is despatched and all are finally rescued. Charubel says, "Thou shalt save many, and thou shalt save thyself." 5 "A peacock parading on an ancient lawn" is dignifying his or her personal excellencies.

• Kindness Evoked • 1 The Despotism of a man driving slaves is unfortunately not entirely absent in the 21st century. The Prayer of Repentance of Meher Baba includes the line, "We repent for every action that has brought ruin to others, for every word and deed that has given others pain, and for every wish that pain should befall others." 2 "A crucifix" reminds us to honor the Savior's sacrifice for us, and to meditate less on his suffering than on his glorious redemptive Resurrection. 3 Some human beings seem selfish and jealous, like a dog hiding a bone or a respectable beggar, an indolent hanger-on. 4 But many are awakening to the plight of farm animals. I just donated to Compassion in World Farming. "A promiscuous lot of creatures--cattle, sheep, pigs and poultry--are pets rather than means of profit," says Charubel. 5 "Two cobblers working at a table" are balancing pros and cons with each other. The keyword is Capability. 6 "A clear mountain stream" represents "high achievement through an unswerving fidelity to some definite course of action," with the keyword Resourcefulness. Tuesday • Kindness Evoked • Moon in Cancer Karmically sobering third of this week is with us until late afternoon of Wednesday. Cosmic Piper

• Reliability Sought and Found • 1 "A man climbing a pole on an elevation" has ambitions in the clouds and exerts himself vainly. The keyword is Vagary. 2 "A wolf following a sheep along a secluded pathway" is crafty, forming associations with a design of ultimate conquest. He is seductive. The keyword is Deception. 3 "A profile of a face" belongs to someone with great powers of perception; an exact, accurate observer of men and things. He would make a good detective. 4 If one seeks personal satisfaction in a simple efficacy of being oneself, one is on the scene of "a duck pond and its brood," aligned to the genius of a modest situation. The keyword is Reliability. 5 "The fullness of life is ageless" to "a woman pursued by mature romance." Genuine maturity heightens capitalization on enduring potentials. The keyword is Persuasion. 6 And so we are on "a very straight road; an interminable perspective," with a balanced mind and a life that will be long and happy. Monday • Reliability Sought and Found • Moon in Gemini is void-of-course all day until entering Cancer at 6:47p PT. Karmically sobering third of this week begins around noon. Let's hold on to the potentials of paragraphs 3-6 while avoiding the pitfalls of paragraphs 1 & 2. Cosmic Piper
