We like to think that things always happen for a wise and benign reason. We want to think that the forces that govern the universe have only our best interests at heart. Even if we don't like some of the things that are happening, it suits us to imagine that somehow, they are the result of a vital plan, envisaged by a supreme intelligence. The most obvious alternative view is very depressing. What if it's all just random? But it isn't just random! There really is a higher force at work in your life now, and you are safe to trust it. 
We all knew that sooner or later, the pretence was bound to collapse. But that's always the case when we attempt to keep up false appearances. Play it a little straighter  as we think purely by accident of birth, some people should be entitled to have power over others. I take their point. I even half agree. But then even doesn't astrology appear to support the idea that accident of birth is everything? There's more to it than that, just as there is more to the idea that relatives should always matter more than friends. Don't be inhibited by a redundant tradition. 
The secret of a success in life, involves learning to make the most of things. If we find ourselves in a bad situation, we should try to extract something good from it. As soon as we even see a cloud on the horizon, we should start looking out for the silver lining. Yet we shouldn't do this at the expense of our discrimination and nor should we let it inhibit us from fighting to get the very best that life may have to offer. You are entitled to set high standards now and to expect some surprising success in attaining these.
