Obviously, this predates the snow. It’s been too cold lately to take the gloves off and get the phone to work.


Ok, so there are some contradictory signs going on here. Midweek we get the truly excellent alignment of Venus and Jupiter with the Sun.  That’s a nearly impossible happening to read a bad omen into, and it’s also hard to improve without adding potential downsides.  But then the very next day we’ve got four planets showing disorder and violence. If Jupiter retrograde was present, this would be the sign for civil war. But it’s not so it’s not. Fortunately, that alignment only lasts a day, whereas the good sign continues on until next week.
