12 March we may feel innately clumsy, with attempts to move forward causing unnecessary hurt, what we thought was smart turning out to be destructive, and worst of all may be the surprising nature of our own skills; what we were sure were practical additions to our repertoire may seem anything but at this time. Don’t worry, a great deal of this is a cacophony of odds and ends energies that just don’t seem to have a home, instead flying through the air and sticking in the most inconvenient places. We just need to let the static charge dissipate, and realize that perceptions right now are fritzed out, too—we shouldn’t try to assess anything until a little time has passed. (Perfecting today: Chiron sesquiquadrate the North Node, Pluto sesquiquadrate Pallas, Pallas contra-parallel Uranus)
Today’s image is participatory; open the nearest book, without looking place your finger on a page, and read what the Universe has to say to you today. I’ll share what mine was: “Was his wife unhappy? That was unfortunate, but it was, after all, her problem.” That’s from ‘Revolutionary Road’ by Richard Yates. To me that gives a keynote of Self-responsibility in the happiness department; everyone must see to their own happiness, and if we experience someone who cares enough about us to want us to be happy, that’s just extra, a blessing, icing on the cake of life. So what’s your message, and what do you translate it to mean?

My nearest book was a cookbook my (now deceased) mom gave me – the words I turned to were, ” . . . a tempura pan is sometimes preferred to a deep kettle because of the wider surface, which allows more pieces to be fried at one time.”
I’d say this has to do with casting a wider net in searching for answers and in the wisdom of using a lighter, more inclusive approach. It’s also kind of eery considering what’s going on in the news and how I was just talking about the missing plane – which isn’t to say there’s not a more personal message there as well. Interesting exercise, Julie.
Thanks for playing our game, LB 🙂

Love this!
Nearest book is one I just received in the mail today. Noam Chomsky – Understanding Power. Thank goodness it was there (I knew there was a reason for buying it) or it would have been an extract from one of several dictionaries (which might have worked) or Wired magazine.
“…in most cases technology isn’t predisposed to help people or harm people – there’s very rarely anything inherent in it which requires that either of those things be the case, it just depends on who gets control.”
This morning I was reading about Tim Berners-Lee’s appeal to create a Magna Carta style bill of rights for the internet in an attempt to give more power to users and less to governments, etc.
It tied in with personal thoughts about how I use the internet, how others use it, how I experience their use and vice versa.
Astrologically it ties in with Pluto-Sun, which I have natally through a trine and conjunct by transit.
I think the message sort of goes with how I have come to view many things – which is that they are neutral until we touch them and imbue them with power, then they reflect our relationship to power.
Something like that, thank you for this 🙂
Love that observation; we certainly do imbue things with power they don’t inherently carry. Thank you for sharing, upturned 🙂

The Bible, which I have recently rescued from the recycle stream because it is the beautiful King James version of my childhood.
‘He delivereth and rescueth, and he worketh signs and wonders in heaven and in earth, who hath delivered Daniel from the power of the lions.’
Rather wonderful, isn’t it? Certainly a propos, given the online news content I’ve been ingesting the past few hours. Even astrology in there ;P
Yes, that is wonderful 🙂 Thanks for sharing
