The sun and Jupiter are in
highly benefic aspects on the
212th day, and rule with COM
bined force for good deeds and
emotions.
Honor, ideals, truth and SYM
pathy are the dominating in
spirations of this period.
There is little favor in the
signs for anything connected
with money or other material
interests. The whole tendency
of the day Is toward the ideal
and the noble.
There should be feeling Of
inspiration, with clearness of
mind, enabling men to see
great truths and express them
conciseIy. The conditions favor
perception of the dynamic
value of principles, and many
persons are likely to realize
that ideals can be turned to
immensely practical benefit.
They who use the influence
wisely today may be able to
date a great regeneration and
largeness of life from this
period.
Journeys, recreation, visits OF
frien dship or charity, music,
singing, art and literature are
under bright omen.
Venus is in a place favoring
women strongly, and making
happy auspices for engage
ments or weddings, family cele-
brations, household entertain
ment and all simple amuse-
ments.

Those who have been unfor-
tunate or unsuccessful are like

FaIsehood and deciet are ur,-

Leo rules hotly and passion
ately for loyalty, bravery and
magnanimity.
Persons with this birth date
are governed for high ability
