Be a lamp, Or a lifeboat, Or a ladder. Help someone’s soul heal. Rumi Instead of reading my conjectures this week, use your heart as balm for someone else’s pain. MZ
Staycation
It appears we’re entering a new phase of the Covid-19 affliction burning through civilization at the current moment in history. We may, albeit reluctantly, have to enter upon another sequestration in order to safeguard lives. May I suggest you take advantage of the short time between grim circumstances suggesting quarantine and actual implementation of same
The only thing certain is change itself
Certainly ‘Coronavirus fatigue’ is setting in for many of us, as we all face tremendous uncertainty as to how/where we earn a living, care for our families, continue friendships, perhaps begin (or end) a close relationship. ‘Not knowing what will happen next’ is quite unsettling.

Cycles
There’s an excellent book, “The Fourth Turning,”* still available after a bit of searching, which I recommend if you’re debating whether history repeats itself or life is simply a series of random events. Astrologers, of course, are vastly and professionally fascinated by cycles of time. This book deals with that premise, that time/history follows a
Mercury Retrograde begins June 18, 2020
An extraordinarily long retrograde period for Mercury begins this Thursday. While many people discount astrology, I have seen examples of the unclear communications and missed appointments which occurred under such a retrograde.

Another point to consider
Previously, we considered a few of the attributes of the Saturn-Pluto conjunction in Capricorn.

This automatically places planets in Capricorn in opposition to the United States’ Sun by sign. An
