Pride is an issue today, yours or somebody else’s. Someone is concerned about their image or reputation.  It seems out of sync with the times, but reassure those who wonder if they are valued by others.  There’s no harm in telling someone you care and that they are succeeding, and it makes all the difference!  An emotional rebuff happens, a setback, but it can be healed by a quiet conversation.  R.I. Fitzhenry said, “Soon after a hard decision, something inevitably occurs to cast doubt. Holding steady against that doubt usually proves the decision.” Steady progress is being made!

It’s an emotional time, and family concerns come first.  Pay special attention to the people who have nurtured you and given you a sense of belonging.  Honor them and notice how you feel more stable.  This is the time to pay down the mortgage and to make home improvements.  Healing is everywhere.  If you are ill, your chances are good these days. Unseen issues are coming to the surface.  Don’t be dismayed by news, be happy.  You can’t solve a problem you don’t know you have.   Joe Kogel said, “When you can see crisis as an opportunity, your life becomes not easier, but more satisfying.”

This is a wonderful day for swift action.  Women, children and those with whom you are emotionally connected are really smart today!  The right action and the right understanding come together for the right outcome!  Food plays a significant role, go out to eat or have a pleasant meal at home.  Send candy to important people.  Sentimentality is high and people fondly reminisce about the past.  The key to the future lies in the past right now.  You can solve a problem by looking back and seeing how it was solved previously.  Corrie Ten Boom said, “Memories are the key not to the past, but to the future.”  On a distracting note, people are chattering away about meaningless things and a good friend really wants to spend time with you.  Be pleasant, but postpone.  You have other things to do today.

Emotional sensitivity is highlighted today.  Help is here.  Someone understands all the issues and has all the answers!  An intuitive and thoughtful person offers help in every direction.  People are happy about this outcome, except authority figures who believe their authority has been circumvented.  Behind the scenes conversation solves everything.  Be cautious not to let discussions “go public” just yet, this creates problems.  A grand trine in water signs signifies powerful intuitive perceptions. Pay attention to your hunches, they are right on!  You probably can’t explain how you know things or where the knowing came from.  But it is there. Herman Hesse said, “Knowledge can be communicated but not wisdom.”  Don’t bother explaining, just act on your hunches and watch life flow smoothly.

Astrology

Happy friendship day!  Someone very dear pops up and makes your life seem brighter.  Conversations are excellent and agreements are solid.  The dominant theme, however, is still suffering and problems.  Is everyone either sick, depressed or about to be incarcerated?  That’s how it seems!  What’s good in these times?  Helping others, extending yourself in a compassionate way.  Doctors and medicines are powerful, and artistic people are enormously creative.  You are profoundly suggestible now, so listen to soothing music, read uplifting material.  Be very careful what you allow into your sphere of influence, you will walk away smelling like that!  An inspired leader is genuinely compassionate.  Listen to this person.  Ram Dass said, “The quieter you become, the more you can hear.”

Four planets in Pisces have everyone thinking about their troubles. Got a problem?  Get in line!  It’s a great day for doctors, therapists and those who help people with issues.  Two main groups emerge, the afflicted and those who deal with the afflicted. Know which team you are on and do your job!  At the exact same time, another contingency is happily chatting away about matters.  These people are in a great mood, which is profoundly irritating to everyone else.  But listen to them; they are the only ones who have hopes for the future.  And they are right!  Faith Hill said, “Forget aging. If you’re six feet above ground, it’s a good day.”

Astrology

This is a sensitive time and a powerful time for inventions, discoveries and the appearance of things formerly hidden from view.  People standing around looking innocent are hiding a secret.  Don’t worry; it will become a public matter in time. Early in the day a disagreement involving objectives and finances is troubling.  A group wants something it can’t afford, much like a newly married couple deciding to buy the Taj Mahal for their first house.  A serious discussion brings everyone down to earth.   Still, it’s important to solve problems and hold to long-term goals.  Friendship is great.  Be nice to those who need help, and there are a lot of those people right now!  Keep plugging away!  E. Jean Carroll said, “If Joan of Arc could turn the tide of an entire war before her 18th birthday, you can get out of bed.”

The Nature of Perception: His Holiness Dudjom Rinpoche

His Holiness Dudjom Rinpoche

The following is respectfully quoted from “The Nyingma School of Tibetan Buddhism” by His Holiness Dudjom Rinpoche:

Although all these phenomena are compounded internally by the mind, their apparitional aspect and supporting foundation are the five gross elements of which external objects are compounded, and which are caused, conditioned, supported and substantiated by the fourfold process of creation, duration, destruction and dissolution. As the number of mental propensities through which they appear as objects expands, the world realm of desire containing the four continents, Mount Sumeru and perimeter appears like a dream, along with the realm of form, which originates from the contemplation of the summit of existence, and so on. In brief, the entire array of the inanimate container and animate creatures, mobile and motionless, subsumed by the three world realms, does not appear in the ultimate vision of sublime beings. Rather, it is an apparitional mode of the bewildered intellect of sentient beings, which appears by the power of the subject-object dichotomy lapsing into delusion, like water in a mirage, and into erroneous perception, like seeing a mulicoloured rope as a snake. As it is said in the Pearl Necklace (mu-tig phreng-ba, NGB Vol.9):

In this way, the diverse appearances
Resemble a rope when seen as a snake.
Though not so, by clinging to them as such
The outer container and inner essence
Are established as duality.
The rope itself, on further investigation,
Is primordially empty of container and essence.
The ultimate takes form as relative.
That perception of the snake is visually true,
The perception of the rope is genuinely true.
Enduring, for example, as a bird relates to a scarecrow,
The independent existence of the two truths
Refers only to the relative world.
It has no relation to genuine reality.
Because of the expanse of emptiness
The essence of that [reality] is that all is free.

Prayer to Guru Rinpoche

The following prayer is from “Buddha in the Palm of the Hand” Nam Cho Ngondro:

A financial deal has the potential to hurt a friendship, so separate the two.  But friendship is great, and you wish to help friends.  Still – neither a borrower nor a lender be; both sides will be disappointed.  If you explain your position carefully, no problems accrue.  Speak up in a sensitive manner.  Everyone is a little touchy right now.  Pay attention to the look on the face and apologize, even though you have no idea what you’ve done to cause offense.  A solution to everything can appear today, so pay attention.  Also, pay attention to yourself.  Your body is speaking to you, and if you need to rest that comes first.  Take it easy. Yogi Berra said, “You can get old pretty young if you don’t take care of yourself.”
