1. How you are feeling at this moment, what is on your mind and the nature of your question. SURRENDER Radical yielding to what is: Neptune in Scorpio or in the Eighth House The situation at hand may be beyond your control and your immediate comprehension. This snowman stands at the mercy of the elements soon to evaporate into thin air and absorbed by the earth. Note the snowman’s smile suggesting a conscious and perhaps, happy surrender to fate. Like the snowman, you might feel as if there’s nowhere to go and nothing to do; except yielding to the existing state of things. With a more conscious surrender to what is, your perception can expand to e brace more reality. You are on the verge of letting go to life it self (like NO ESCAPE but without the external pressure). 2. The factors influencing you and what is happening around you. INTOXICATED A euphoric absence of suffering: Jupiter in Cancer or in the Fourth House Amidst the daily toils of the labyrinth exist vertical pools of intoxicating bliss, where you can experience a temporaiy alleviation of suffering. When pain subsides, what remains is your natural self: expanded & serene. The black storm clouds symbolize painful resistances still in eftect; blue skies, the partial clearing away of distress. It’s time to become more receptive to what feels good within and around you. Here, happiness isn’t necessarily a matter of belief so much as attitude. When emotional or psychic pain distort your attitude, you can let the hurt go by dropping that attitude. 3. The direction you need to take to resolve any problems before you. WAKE UP A disconcerting illumination: Uranus in Aquarius or in the Eleventh House The truth will set you free but first it may make you miserable. A personal epiphany is unfolding and you’re it. In this image, a woman’s third eye is "targeted" for a shock of self-awareness. A vision forms: ice-like crystals frame her face while crowning the brain. This symbolizes how a psychic fixation with abstract ideals, despite the best of intentions, can actually diminish human warmth and feeling. The eyes look lethargic, as if awakening from a low energy state. As self-imposed buffers to your own humanity are recognized and lifted, you can become more compassionate towards yourself and in your process of awakening others.
