                         MUTUAL PLANETARY DIRECTIONS

   Aspects  between  two progressed planets have little or no  potency,  but
when a planet by progression comes into aspect with a RADICAL planet it  op-
erates for good or ill, according to its nature and the power of the radical
planet in the horoscope.

   In  the  following paragraphs we have set down these tendencies,  and  it
matters  not whether Venus progresses to a good aspect with radical  Saturn,
or Saturn progresses to a good aspect with radical Venus, the effects are as
noted in the first paragraph,  and similarly with the other aspects  follow-
ing.

   VENUS  AND SATURN IN GOOD ASPECT BY PROGRESSION indicate a period of  fi-
nancial success, gain in social prestige and emotional exaltation.   The re-
ligious and devotional nature is likely to receive an awakening.

   VENUS AND SATURN IN EVIL ASPECT BY PROGRESSION indicate a period of  sor-
row and trouble.  Both the health and reputation suffer; delays, disappoint-
ment  and losses are frequent and annoying.  Others will seek to impose upon


[PAGE 513]                                       MUTUAL PLANETARY DIRECTIONS

the person;  death or separation from loved ones, and other disagreeable ex-
periences are met.  The mind is gloomy and inclined to worry.

   MERCURY AND SATURN IN GOOD ASPECT BY PROGRESSION mark a good time to  un-
dertake new responsibilities, make investments in houses, mines,  lands,  or
similar property,  undertake study or research work of a deeper nature,  and
make important contracts which will prove of lasting benefit to the  person.
It is a good time to deal with agents and elderly persons,  or to  undertake
journeys for a serious purpose.

   MERCURY AND SATURN AFFLICTED BY PROGRESSION indicate a time of delays and
disappointments with a tendency to look upon the dark side of things.  It is
a  bad time to undertake new responsibilities,  deal with elderly people  or
sign legal papers.  The person is liable to slander and loss of reputation.

   MARS AND SATURN IN GOOD ASPECT BY PROGRESSION mark a period when the per-
son will be very enterprising yet tactful and diplomatic, courageous but not
foolhardy,  strong  and dignified,  better able to  shoulder  the  responsi-
bilities  of life than at any other time.   If he makes proper use of  these
qualities he will gain financially,  also in honor and respect among his as-
sociates.


[PAGE 514]                                          THE MESSAGE OF THE STARS

   MARS  AND SATURN IN BAD ASPECT BY PROGRESSION make the person very  fool-
hardy and impulsive,  hence there is a liability to accident under these di-
rections.   Occasionally  when  the  horoscope shows  violence  there  is  a
tendency to crime and bloodshed which may result in imprisonment.   All  the
vices  of the character seem to come to the fore at this time,  and loss  of
temper is the least among them.   The greatest care should be taken to  keep
the animal nature down and hold a firm check upon all the undesirable traits
in the character.

   VENUS AND JUPITER IN GOOD ASPECT BY PROGRESSION bring financial benefits,
and a rise in social position and esteem.  They make the person more kindly,
sympathetic and considerate,  hence increase his popularity.   It is a  good
time  to travel and enjoy life.  Investments made under this  influence  are
generally successful, and the health is excellent, or if the person has been
ill this marks the period of convalescence and recuperation, when life takes
on a rosier hue.

   VENUS AND JUPITER AFFLICTING EACH OTHER BY PROGRESSION indicate a  period
of  mild  domestic trouble,  small financial losses and a  tendency  to  ex-
travagance  and wastefulness,  pecuniary difficulties on that  account,  and
possibly lawsuits.  There is also some loss of prestige in the social circle
or the person's environment.


[PAGE 515]                                       MUTUAL PLANETARY DIRECTIONS

   MERCURY  AND JUPITER IN GOOD ASPECT BY PROGRESSION indicate a  very  suc-
cessful period in the life.  The person will probably travel with both plea-
sure and profit to himself.   He will have good health and be in the best of
spirits,  so that life in general will take on a very rosy hue.   There  are
indications  of gain by investments and in the general course of  his  busi-
ness,  and it is a good time to enter into contracts and  agreements,  espe-
cially for literary work.

   MERCURY  AND  JUPITER AFFLICTED BY PROGRESSION mark a  troublesome  time,
when  the person is liable to become involved in lawsuits and lose  thereby.
He  should be very careful not to sign papers or enter into agreements,  for
there will be trouble and misunderstanding,  involving financial loss;  also
if he lends money to other people they will endeavor to impose upon him  and
defraud  him,  and dealings with agents and commission men  should  be  par-
ticularly avoided.

   MARS AND JUPITER IN GOOD ASPECT BY PROGRESSION mark a period in life when
the  usual conservatism of Jupiter is blended with the  martian  enthusiasm,
hence  the person will become more enthusiastic and enterprising so that  he
is  likely to extend his business and be successful in gaining an added  in-
come  thereby.  He  should  be careful, however, not to overreach himself at


[PAGE 516]                                          THE MESSAGE OF THE STARS

this time.  These aspects also work upon the devotional nature and may some-
times express themselves as religious enthusiasm when the person turns  over
a new leaf and becomes a better man or woman than before.

   MARS AND JUPITER IN EVIL ASPECT BY PROGRESSION mark a danger point in the
life  when the person is liable to wreck his whole career by acts which  are
definitely  criminal,  or  by losses due to  ostentatious  display  and  ex-
travagance,  or  he may become interested in some wildcat mining  scheme  or
speculate  upon the stock exchange in such a reckless manner that  he  loses
all he has and becomes a pauper.   The health is also likely to suffer under
this direction;  impurities of the blood may cause growths,  tumors,  boils,
and kindred afflictions.   Altogether it is a very evil time and the  person
should guard himself very carefully against yielding to any of these  influ-
ences.

   VENUS  AND MARS IN GOOD ASPECT BY PROGRESSION mark a period  of  pleasure
and  enjoyment  when an attachment of a lasting nature may  be  formed  with
someone  through an enthusiastic courtship.  There are also  indications  of
financial gain and an increase of popularity.

   VENUS AND MARS IN EVIL ASPECT BY PROGRESSION mark a period of impulse and
recklessness when the person  is  likely  to act in a most indiscreet manner


[PAGE 517]                                       MUTUAL PLANETARY DIRECTIONS

that may cause great trouble in life.  If married there will be some  domes-
tic unhappiness.   Financial losses and discredit are also shown,  therefore
the  person should endeavor to hold himself in check and avoid  any  tempta-
tions that may come in his path.

   MERCURY AND MARS IN GOOD ASPECT BY PROGRESSION mark a time when the  per-
son  is generally successful in all affairs of life,  especially  where  the
mental qualities are called into action, for this will make him keen, shrewd
and sharp, quick to see a point and grasp an advantage, hence financial gain
is  also indicated.   This is a good time for advertising and extending  the
person's  business,  entering  contracts and agreements,  and  dealing  with
agents and middlemen.  It is good for literary work of a lighter nature, and
an excellent time to travel.   The health is good and there is a feeling  of
cheerfulness, joy and optimism.

   MERCURY AND MARS IN EVIL ASPECT BY PROGRESSION.   This is a critical time
when  the person is liable to act on impulse,  to speak and act  impulsively
without  due deliberation and forethought,  hence he is likely to  get  into
trouble  or  suffer loss through the sharp practices of  other  people.   He
should  therefore  be  very  careful not so sign papers or enter into agree-


[PAGE 518]                                          THE MESSAGE OF THE STARS

ments,  and there is danger of accident and trouble if the  person  travels.
It is a bad time for changes or extensions of business.

   MARS AND URANUS IN GOOD ASPECT BY PROGRESSION indicate a good period  for
perfecting inventions or starting new and original enterprises.  Friendships
of a beneficial nature are often made under these directions, and not infre-
quently a psychic awakening takes place through associations with people, or
groups of people, or a Uranian nature.

   MARS AND URANUS IN EVIL ASPECT BY PROGRESSION mark a very dangerous  time
in the person's life.   There is a liability to accidents of an unusual  na-
ture, a breaking up of conditions, estrangement from friends, and the person
is liable to find himself suddenly alone in the world.  Sometimes there is a
psychic awakening but always of an undesirable nature.

   MARS AND NEPTUNE IN GOOD ASPECT BY PROGRESSION mark a time of good health
and high spirits for advanced people,  but the majority do not feel its  in-
fluence.

   MARS AND NEPTUNE IN EVIL ASPECT BY PROGRESSION produce a neurotic  condi-
tion in those who can respond to its influence.   There is also a  liability
to be defrauded or victimized in some unaccountable manner.


[PAGE 519]                                       MUTUAL PLANETARY DIRECTIONS

   VENUS AND URANUS IN GOOD ASPECT BY PROGRESSION give a probability of some
financial gain and it is likely that the person will have what he  considers
a good time,  involving probably a romantic love affair, but it is likely to
leave  a sting behind.   This direction insures the aid of friends  and  in-
creases the popularity of the person for the time being.

   VENUS  AND URANUS IN EVIL ASPECT BY PROGRESSION are a fruitful  cause  of
domestic unhappiness and divorce.  This direction is likely to bring about a
scandal on account of immoral conduct.  Lawsuits and financial loss are also
threatened, and the person is likely to act in a most erratic manner.

   VENUS AND NEPTUNE IN GOOD ASPECT BY PROGRESSION indicate a period of suc-
cess  in social matters,  happiness and enjoyment of life for those who  can
respond to this direction.  The person is particularly apt to indulge in the
building of air castles and the concoction of roseate daydreams which are of
no particular avail but serve to make the period thoroughly enjoyable.

   VENUS AND NEPTUNE IN EVIL ASPECT BY PROGRESSION are likely to bring  some
psychic  experience  of a disagreeable nature connected with  mediumship  or
hypnotism.  There is a tendency  to  sensuality and immorality, occasionally


[PAGE 520]                                          THE MESSAGE OF THE STARS

the  indulgence  in drinks or drugs which will cause sorrow and  trouble  to
come to the person.

   MERCURY  AND URANUS IN GOOD ASPECT BY PROGRESSION make the native  active
mentally,  bring unexpected pleasures, give impulse to mental work, make the
mind keen and give a desire for occult investigation.  Many are attracted to
and become interested in altruistic and humanitarian work under this aspect.

   MERCURY  AND URANUS AFFLICTING EACH OTHER BY PROGRESSION make the  native
unconventional,  erratic and restless,  create a nervous,  wayward state  of
mind, and may bring unexpected lawsuits.

   MERCURY  AND NEPTUNE IN GOOD ASPECT BY PROGRESSION.   The mind is  active
and inclined to the study of Astrology and Mysticism.   The native is apt to
travel  by  water  and  make changes.  Only those  who  are  advanced  along
spiritual lines feel the effect of Neptune.

   MERCURY AND NEPTUNE IN BAD ASPECT BY PROGRESSION.  Persons under this in-
fluence should guard against investments in corporations.   The mind is dis-
turbed  by  evil thoughts and the morals may be lax if such  a  tendency  is
shown in the natal horoscope.

   SATURN,  JUPITER,  URANUS, AND NEPTUNE seldom form aspects by progression
on account of their slow motion.
