Or, give the poor ox a break rather than calling him out for "an idle and self-indulgent nature." More active is "a flexible mind capable of mathematics and Ingenuity" likened to "a large waterwheel attached to a corn mill." Someone Enlisted as "a Red Cross nurse" has "a steadiness of concern for the more extreme needs of others," losing all sense of separateness while becoming a dedicated phase of all-self. At some point our minds could be passive, calm and thoughtful, with graceful manners and elegant bodies; full of contentment and quiet happiness. "In a peaceful valley a swan is floating on a lake. At the back rises a high mountain." The Bella Villa Motel is situated on the northeast side of a green field surrounded by shrubberies. Its manager possesses an adequacy to keep him, and is content. In the setting sun, brownies are dancing the cosmic dance; enjoying good fortune, unlimited opportunity, and Invigoration.

• Good Judgment and Ministration • "A very dark sky" suggests a very gloomy day. What nation is "a baneful comet with a long tail," an instrument of evil powers? Iran thinks it's Israeli; Israel thinks it's Iran. Russia thinks it's Ukraine; Ukraine thinks it's Russia. Some persons "may become the scourge of nations." Let's pray for beneficent intervention by the Supreme. We might also seek the wisdom of "a woman holding a book in one hand and a pair of scales in the other." Sound wisdom and dispassionate Judgment are hers, plus fame, riches and longevity. (Where is she?) "An Indian weaving a blanket" exemplifies quiet persistence and Diligence meeting human needs. What are you "weaving"? "A portly man walks among pigeons flocking on the ground at his feet." Many are interested chiefly in their homes and the care of their children. They inspire confidence and faith in others; their footsteps are followed in security and peace. The keyword is Ministration. "A Christmas tree decorated" tells its own stories through the gifts scattered around it. Possessions are enhanced as they are exhibited. Enjoyment becomes increasingly vicarious and spiritual. The keyword is Symbolization. Moon is void-of-course until entering Libra at 2:04a PT. Karmically sobering third of this week is intense today and tonight, ending by Thursday mid-morning.

• Through Diligence toward Peace • You or some associates may be subject to Lassitude. "An old man, poorly clad, stands by the side of a river, from which he collects bits of wood and straw with a rake." He tries to gain comforts by easy but unfruitful ways. "A sleigh without snow" may not require it, because "nature is ever prodigal in her means for supporting reality." The keyword is Sustainment. Death, if not desired, may be averted through righteous Faith. Between two men in a wood lies a rich purple and gold venture and a casket of jewels. They fight a duel over it. One meets opposition in one's efforts for wealth and position. Maybe "an Indian weaving a blanket" is more likely to attain his goals through Diligence, "the quiet persistence of each proper act of self in the interest of its own genius." How we need this final emblem! "Two swords (from the previous duel?) form a cross lying on the ground. A man stands on them with a scepter pointing heavenward." "A person of peace; one who confides in the higher power," says Charubel. Voila! Monday • Through Diligence toward Peace • Moon in Virgo goes void-of-course at 4:13a PT.

• From Loneliness to Luxury • There are warnings against anger, which would come back to afflict oneself. A lonely phase, however, is natural and harmless. "A ram standing alone looks toward a flock of sheep in the distance." "Sympathies toward the opposite sex are wanting" says Charubel. Aries, containing four planets now, can be a bachelor sign sometimes. "A rising Sun" represents "a Solar man, destined to rule or command." This too is an Aries propensity. Is "the president of the country" vainly and destructively assertive, or does he make the self-sacrifice required of anybody who would be the creative representative of eternal value? The keyword is Idealization. "A dark man, richly apparreled, surrounded by servants and courtiers, reclines on a couch." He has wealth, influence, and artistic tastes, plus a love of ease. The keyword is Luxury. Others seek the promise of a covenant with the universal matrix of life itself, that is, "The 🌈 rainbow's pot of gold." The keyword is Faith.

The catharsis of nature comes in "an electrical storm." The universal forces spell out Transformation. Most will recover fully. Some may feel almost suicidally that their hopes are gone
A man climbing a pole has ambitions in the clouds which may be mere Vagaries. But "A man teaching new forms for old symbols" is onto something real. The keyword is Interpretation. Some may be actual Seers possessing a globe reflecting the whole panorama of the earth.

Saturday 18th: • Above the Earth? • We start with the "cheerless" symbols of the day, such as "the earth covered with a deep snow" suggesting an uneventful life lacking the native energy required for success. Then there is "a bed of a dried-up river wherein crows are feeding." One may have given much to unthankful people who offer nothing in return. Still, we remain in the month of Aries and "two men are engaged in a fight." Many are pugnacious. It would be better to put that energy into simple, persistent, honest effort, like "a man of humble appearance but much strength felling a tree with an axe." Springtide is described thus: "I see green everywhere, and everything is on the move." Many changes seem to head nowhere; yet someone is wearing "a large hat with streamers flying, facing east." Naive creativity accompanies Excitation, the keyword. "I seem to be above the earth. I see a man, yet one greater than a man! His mission is a WORLD mission." Who is your candidate or candidates? Higher yet, "A celestial choir is singing." There can be "a gift for the effective articulation or manifestation of those eternal realities through which all people find themselves at one." This is a cure for the first two paragraphs. The keyword is Veneration. Saturday • Above the Earth? • Moon in Taurus Sunday 19th: "Above the world the world-creators stand, In the phenomenon see its mystic source. Above the illusion of the hopes that pass, Behind the appearance and the overt act, Behind this clock-work Chance and vague surmise, Amid the wrestle of force, the trampling feet, Across the cries of anguish and of joy, Across the triumph, fighting and despair, They watch the Bliss for which earth's heart has cried Winding undetected through the scepic days And to meet it guide the unheedful moving world. Then the masked Transcendent mount his throne. A few shall see what none yet understands: God shall grow up while the wise men talk and sleep; For man shall not know the coming till its hour And belief shall be not till the work is done."

On Wednesday it was exact in late afternoon and early evening, and where I live there was an enormous thunderstorm with lightning and then hailstones! There was also a failure of the heating system in my building for a few hours; Saturn is the planet of coldness. Things are calmer on Thursday, and by Friday the Difficult Third will be gone. Still, there are other issues . . .) Friday: We may have to pass through a dark, sad, gloomy phase during which everything seems pointless. "A king sits on a throne; behind him stands a figure veiled in black." The keyword, Collapse, suggests a fall if one undertakes feats beyond one's natural powers, especially if they are morally questionable. "A large disappointed audience" suggests that one cannot always expect applause from the momentary mood of the masses. The keyword is Disjunction. One can be spiritually independent, and large-hearted, with great soul-force, rather than dependent on mental scheming. Nobody can put anything over on you. You might enter "A forest of big oaks, with plenty of scope for wandering," loving a rural life filled with firm purpose and singleness of aim. You prosper when allowed to go in your own groove. You might also benefit from "a farmyard with a lot of cows," or maybe from dairy products. "A man successfully expressing himself in two realms at once" experiences many interpenetrating realms of reality, with unlimited versatility. The keyword is Proficiency. "A fair woman, richly attired, standing alone" receives great attention and many friends because of her goodness of heart and generosity. The keyword is Favor.

"A man in a dark room at a table with books, papers and mathematical instruments distributed about him promiscuously" gains little from his studies. "A crow or raven standing on a waterpot" may be up to mischief because of envy, but would suffer as a result. Instead, one could use mental curiosity to make a Discovery, causing a new idea to dawn on the world. Some will rise from a low estate to Eminence, like a flag on a staff at the top of a high mountain. Then they would resemble "a triangle with wings," inviolable in their light-bringing Zeal.

Yet they are resourceful within their alternative lifestyle, with facility of adjustment according to the keyword Sensibility. "A double promise" is represented first by a man enjoying himself with self-admiration in a gorgeous garden, and secondly by "a great genius like a brilliant star in a dark sky. His home is in the Western Hemisphere." One embodies material and the other celestial glory. "A woman, lightly clad, is lying in a field of violet flowers."

The remaining symbols can be curatives for such malevolence and unrest. A person enjoying good luck covers himself with decorations and ornaments in a garden abounding with flowers and fountains. He or she is vain as a peacock. A man plays with colored balls, an immodest woman standing behind him. They need to develop force of character and worthy ambition. Maybe they should be more like "an old-fashioned clock" following a mechanical system of "rules to the letter," not inventive, but particular in details. A beautiful symbol sets forth "a nice villa on the northeast side of a green field surrounded by shrubberies." "One possesses an adequacy to keep him; and with this he has the disposition to be content."

They and others may be victims of "a baneful comet with a long tail pointing toward the earth." Some notorious persons become "the scourge of nations." Others, more fortunate, sit in dark rooms surrounded by books, papers and mathematical instruments, capable of great achievements, but not benefiting themselves by their studies. Others are real or would-be revolutionists or agitators. "A red flag floats at the top of a high staff." Two fortunate cows do not notice a tiger ready to spring. Who are the cows and who the tigers in the ongoing negotiations in Pakistan? Let's pray for J. D. Vance. Is alcohol always a weakness? No, but "two men talk together with faces averted from a third with a tankard in his hand, ready to drink." Low habits and associations result from Weakness. Fortunate are you if you can throw your head back and laugh at the victims of these symbols! But pleasure at others' misery (Schadenfreude) is definitely sinful! Nevertheless, "a comedian entertaining a group" grants us needed Release. More genteel is "a woman in pastel colors carrying a heavy and valuable but veiled load." She accepts complete responsibility for her experience, with unimpeachable integrity. The keyword is Reticence.

° Garden of Desire ° Several astrological timing systems suggest unleashed ambition. "A man is plowing in the midst of a boundless plain." But it is too early to be sure of an adequate harvest. Some, "tottering and uncertain, carry water which they spill on the ground." There could be wavering instability. One should ask oneself what one really desires. It might be good to spend some time in solitary prayer. "Thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall reward thee openly." As a recluse, one could possess hidden knowledge. "A woman rises out of water; a seal rises and embraces her." I leave the interpretation to you. The keyword is Realization. There is "mutual interdependence of the emotional and purposeful aspects of self." There is a time and place for "amusement, with singing, dancing, and music on the program in a large ballroom." "A right angle and plane lying on a table" indicate rectitude, strength, and peace in the service others: Fraternity and Liberality. So one might happen upon "The gate to the garden of desire."

° Conscious Merit ° I do not believe in predicting tragedies. Yet we sometimes see a day's ominous symbols working out, such as this one today: "An anchor unattached to any vessel's chain, the cable broken." If we feel thus lost, we can refind our way through faith in the unfailing anchor, Christ Jesus. Likewise, if thoughts of death are disturbing, we can read and recall Jesus's promises concerning immortality. "A man plowing in the midst of a boundless plain" is ambitious to be first in everything, jealous of rivals, individual and original. If more mature, he might be a philanthropist, reformer or healer, possessed of mysterious magnetic powers. Craving for things unattainable could be arrant selfishness, like a dog chasing another for a bone. On the other hand, "a prizefighter entering the ring" is establishing his career confidently through Exertion. "A woman rises out of water, a seal rises and embraces her" is the mysterious Sabian symbol for Mars's position at 0 Aries. Unconditioned potentiality can be grasped through Realization. A new Bright Hermetic Epoch begins today (through June 12th) and plans begin to work out more smoothly.

• Toward Validation • "A scrawl or flourish of the pen" is only a beginning, not enough. "A poor widow is nursing a baby and weeping near coal pits." Mining does not go well. What could help? Being particular in matters of detail, carrying on with exact habits, following an almost mechanical system like "an old-fashioned clock." One might begin by reading the Bible, guided out of every difficulty by walking in darkness with an old-fashioned lantern, faithful to truths taught by one's forefathers. Fear of loss makes some over-thrifty or miserly. Or one could be wisely acquisitive for good purposes. Acquiring wealth and fame shrewdly is watchful self-service. "A man is seated on a throne, holding a scepter, crowned, with signs of wealth around him." "A prism" indicates judgment of unusual accuracy enabling exceptional accomplishment.

This year one symbol for the day is "a man being tortured" and we may well pray for all those persecuted or ill-treated around the world. That includes many Christians. Few are their defenders, though some strategists are "mounted on the top of a hill with sword in hand as if on the lookout." The world's work continues even on most holy days. Charubel says that agriculturists are profiting by their labors. Other individuals are "possessed with strange influences" such as familiars or spirit companions, whether demonic or saintly or angelic. Some have comfort and happiness without labor, as if "well favored cows grazing in a park in the shade of trees." Perhaps this is the glade in which "a youth, book in hand, wanders, while sunlight slants through the trees and falls upon the figure of the student." There is peaceful contemplation and Passive Beauty. The cosmic-human dance goes on, and "Brownies are dancing in the setting sun" to the music of Invigoration. There are moments of life's culmination, as depicted by "a harvest moon." This is "self-consummation successful beyond any possibility of measure." The keyword is Benediction.

We can pray to be in humble touch with the Supreme and His guardian angels, to protect us from any human treachery. A dark curtain like a pall, what Sri Aurobindo called the Inconscient, can be minimized or lifted through persistent aspiration. Are there two special individuals who guide your hopes? "Two horses" are used to "plow" or prepare consciousness for precious seed flowering in a higher manifestation. Then, to announce this to the world, a red flag is hoisted to the top of a staff. (Iran, for example, needs wise revolutionaries.) "An Indian weaving a blanket" has learned the value of Diligence for others and himself. Each tiny act builds toward a useful result. "A new moon divides its influences" in order to protect and test their effect in each case, with Finesse. "A man stands on a dais, in his hand a scroll, on his head a laurel wreath."
