“Life is fundamentally a mental state. We live in a dream world that we create. Whose life is truer, the rational man of action pursuing practical goals of personal happiness and wealth or the philosophic man who lives in a world of theoretical and metaphysical ideas? We ascribe the value quotient to our lives by making decisions that we score as either valid or invalid based upon our personal ethics and how we think and behave.”

Kilroy J. Oldster, Dead Toad Scrolls

The hope today is that we are able to settle into some kind of comfortable relationship with practicality that helps us to set aside the struggle between insecurity and confidence. If our beliefs don’t square with reality, the practical approach can at least give us room to make further investigations and allow for new information to help us adjust our beliefs. There are strong tendencies to look for some guidelines to follow and find security through conformity. Even attempts to conform help us to step back a bit from strongly held beliefs that may not be serving us as well as we think. Today’s activity provides us with the opportunity to change our minds (beliefs) through new experiences that inform our understanding. Stubbornness will severely hinder today’s opportunities.

The moon continues through Scorpio today. After the intensity of yesterday, things are flowing a lot more smoothly, with the moon making a harmonious trine to Neptune. This could be a watershed moment. The energy is emotional, seductive, dreamy, sensual, and sexual at best. You’re deepening bonds and intimacy, merging on a powerful level.

But there could be heavier emotions surfacing that need to be consciously released. If you’re grieving, be gentle with yourself. A warm salt bath can help you relax and cleanse your aura of heavier, cloudier emotions.
