Theme: Cautious and Useful

The difficult energy to moving forward quickly, continues. Patience is indeed a virtue. For one more day, our sense of purpose is in its home sign, Leo. Our thinking and communication is in versatile and practical Virgo. We have a talent for being useful to others. We are also emotionally responsive today, and seek beauty and harmony. The purpose of having this precious human body is not simply to achieve happiness for yourself, but to eliminate the suffering of all other beings and bring them happiness. ~ Lama Zopa Rinpoche

Theme: Strange Moods and Altruism

Today we can be confused, discouraged and mislead. Can we use prayer and meditation to keep our mind clear? At the same time we have altruistic impulses and a desire for truth that come readily. We face a conflict between our close relationships and our mental creativity. Proceed slowly and cautiously for several more days. It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop ~Cofucius

Theme: Fine points

With both the Moon and Mercury moving into Virgo today there is an emphasis on the importance of attending to details, communication and cleaning up spaces. Harmony arises when you can find what you are looking for! You can make unusual, interesting connections today, and more easily align your inner and outer goals. It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn’t use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like, ‘What about lunch?’~Winnie the Poo

Theme: Full display

With both the Sun and Moon in Leo – and a full moon at that – it’s a day of high energy and flamboyance. It’s also a day to celebrate the inherent dignity and majesty that is integral to the strength of Leo. Resources from the past provide support and motivation is strengthened today. We lose dignity if we tolerate the intolerable.~Baltasar Gracian

Theme: Focused communication

Communication is intensified today as everyone is focused on delivering their message. There is a strong sense of ‘I’ attached to this messaging so it’s more difficult to be objective. Core physical strength is stronger than usual. There is an art in knowing when to step forward and when to retreat. The tendency is to soldier on, in spite of obstacles, but this path is not fruitful at this time because structural shifts are required. Those who understand that they originate from causes and conditions do not conceptualize them in terms of self and other.~The Question of the Kimnara King Druma

8/16/2020 Saturday by Jampal & Wangmo

Theme: Courage and Fear

There are conflicting indications today. We feel courageous and want to take action. Yet there is a fated element that brings up fears about our ability to handle situations. Acting on our own will be beneficial. We want to speak our mind and are ready for intensive mental work. More frustrations and limmitations are to be expected for the next 2 weeks. To help others takes courage and inner strength. ~ H H the Dalai Lama

8/15/2020 Saturday by Jampal & Wangmo

Theme: Work and Play

Today there is supportive energy for ease in getting things done, especially by oneself. Remember this if serious conflicts arise with others. Emotionally, it is a nice day to socialize, and to beautify the home. Overindulgence is the only pitfall. We look for excitement as the day moves on, and over the next few days, through our relationships. I love deadlines. I love the whooshing noise they make as they go by. ~ Douglas Adams

8/14/2020 Friday by Jampal & Wangmo

Theme: “Finger of God”

The double Yod pattern, with both the Sun and Mercury makes for a fated day. Yet we have free will in our responses to the situations that arise. Can we transform our authoritarian tendencies into compassionate service? Can we clear our heads and guide others in a positive direction? Objectivity will be harder to come by for several days. Be especially open to other’s view points. You can’t let your failures define you. You have to let your failures teach you. ~ Barrack Obama

Theme: Mind connections and transforming tension

With the Moon in Gemini in good aspect to the planet of communication, Mercury, there are good opportunities to feel connected with others. Talking or writing through dilemmas brings results. Communication also helps address short sightedness. Underlying tension remains inviting you to see beyond partisan opinions and divisions, welcome difference and challenge inequality. We are afraid to care too much, for fear that the other person does not care at all.~Eleanor Roosevelt

Theme: Strength testing

While physical constitutional energy is stronger for the next few days – challenges to power structures creates tension. It’s a time of transformation if the goal is to be of benefit to others. Discipline is required today to harness this energy for good. It’s not easy to be objective: seek wise counsel if you’re unclear about something. I might repeat to myself, slowly and soothingly, a list of quotations beautiful from minds profound; if I can remember any of the damn things.~Dorothy Parker
