The earth rotates at a steady speed. Though the length of a day and a night, is slightly shorter than the 24 hours that we ascribe to this process, the difference is a mere matter of minutes. It is so consistent that we can comfortably compensate for it with regular adjustments to the annual calendar. No scientific evidence exists to suggest that there are some days when our planet spins on its axis far faster than it does on other days. Yet it has certainly felt that way to you lately. Coming events will slow things down sweetly.
 The progress of our world is steady. Less so, our tendency to feel as if life is rushing in one direction for a while and then slowly dragging us along the other way. But here, at last, comes the right sort of movement at the right pace, not to worry about things that are relatively unlikely to happen. It sounds obvious. Why would an astrologer (or indeed, anyone else) even suggest the opposite. But sometimes, what's obvious to one person, isn't obvious to another. And then there is the possibility that we may use up all our energy contemplating some far-fetched fear and thus become so distracted that we fail to spot what really ought to be the most logical precaution to take. Your common sense is the only thing you need to listen to now.
What if this goes wrong?' 'What if that proves complicated?' Who can say when trouble will next rear its head? We know that it has a penchant for taking us by surprise. Don't we? Doesn't it? Well, if trouble really does like to invoke the unexpected, no amount of anticipation is going to keep it at bay. It is just going to manifest in the one area that we didn't make an allowance for. Better, therefore, not to worry. Besides which, when we worry, we create a special kind of trouble all by ourselves.
