to be subject to influences that indi-
cate curtailment of income. Writers
have the forecast of reduced earnings.
Increase in taxation will cause the

and Italy. The Vatican will suffer
from this rule of the malefic planet.
Again the death of a woman promi-

Theaters today are directed by stars
that are variable in their influence,

unknown players is foreshadowed. An
actor will rise to fame
Music has a direction believed to

The periodic conjunction Of Mars

that indicates explosions. volcanic
eruptions and deeds of violence.
The conjunction of Mars and Saturn
gives reason, in the reading Of Presi-
