When hiking, it’s a good idea to stop for a drink and cool off. Maybe even soak your feet.

This would be a bad week if the stars cared about you, as they tell a sad tale. Some royal schmuck is going to have a bad few days.

It starts off as last week ended with Mercury-Mars “News about War” or “Battles going wrong.” But then things get more complicated as other planets join the party. At first, Venus comes close (Venus-Mars indicating a romantic relationship) and they both align with the earth (Married, Parents). Then off of the Earth we get the Moon (Change) and Saturn (Ending). So this final construction is about Dear John letters at best, more likely unwelcome telegrams. That Moon-Saturn conjunction happening in Pisces is a good indication that the navy is involved. Or maybe a transport plane crashing into the ocean. Possibly choking on a fish bone or eating improperly prepared fugu. There are a lot of choices when you’re talking about death by water.

I mentioned that this week is a good one for Gemini. It’s because we see the entrance of Mercury which, as we’ve discussed before, is a particularly lucky time. However, Leo gets the Lion’s share holding both Mars and Venus simultaneously.

I don’t have too many videos of Lily just hanging out.

It’s been a dry spring, so the creeks aren’t really deep enough to swim in. Lily’s going to make a valiant attempt though. Daisy’s content to wade.
