The Fundamental Things Apply

The moon exalted in Taurus sets the tone for the coming week. It makes getting away from firmly held beliefs next to impossible. Once they have an idea in mind, there is just no way for Taurus the bull to come around to any other vantage point. They take a position and stick to it. This is all well and good because eventually they will come to the truth. Like the patient who had a toothache and goes to the dentist. The dentist asked his patient “Which tooth is it that hurts?” The patient replies “Are you the dentist or am I the dentist?” So the dentist reached in and pulled out a tooth. The patient complained, “you pulled the wrong tooth” and the dentist replied “don’t worry, we’ll come to it.”

Mars is trine to Mercury and sextile to Saturn so although there may be some deeply subdued feelings of hostility, they are kept under a lid through the interference of Saturn. This is advantageous because as the saying goes “loose lips sink ships”. Better to keep quiet and people will think you are a wise person. Why open your mouth and remove all doubt.

Jupiter in Sagittarius is in square aspect to Uranus. This leads to a teetering back and forth between the conventional and unconventional. Also, this indicates a struggle between excess and limitation. Give yourself a vacation and let others enjoy their own approach to life. No one needs a truth serum.
