Valid during many months: Traditionally this is considered one of the most marvelous influences, and indeed it is quite good. However, since your chart is severely afflicted by other influences at this time, this one will serve largely to give you a break. At the very least, you will feel good at this time. Your health is good, and you feel very optimistic. For a while it may seem that everything is working out perfectly, and if you make an effort, it will.

Be aware of any tendency toward anger or irritability during this time. This signifies tension in your personal life that you should attend to. Ego energies are running rather high on the home front during this time, and you may run into conflicts at home.

Valid during many months: This influence signifies open enemies and conflicts, among other things. Anything you try to do now is likely to encounter stiff opposition from anyone who has any reason to oppose you.

You strive to get ahead and are prepared to work hard. This time can represent the culmination of successful effort, or it can be a time when the opposition becomes so fierce that you have to give up. If you are tempted to try to gain control over others, be very careful. Eventually you might find yourself opposed by everyone whom you have ever tried to rule. Nevertheless, your energies are high during this time, and you should express them by making creative and positive changes in your life.

Be careful that people whom you have to deal with at this time represent themselves truthfully. Others will probably try to deceive you and if they do, the results could be even more discouraging. Don't let your desire to have things your way cloud your ability to see what is really happening, especially with people. At the same time don't become involved in any devious action yourself. You are not likely to be especially lucky at such schemes, and you may not want to face the consequences in the future.

Most commonly this influence makes you strike out rashly against people who seem to have held you back in some way or who have angered you consistently in the past.

For many people, this is an extremely irritating influence, requiring great patience and forbearance as well as willingness to keep yourself in the background for a while. During this time you may feel lonely and cut off from others, as if you couldn't get through to them. At this time you can do work that requires great concentration of energy and meticulous care. If you have been working on a project of this sort, it may now approach completion or reach a critical culmination.
