The Hanged Man
Seven of Swords reversed

This is the still moment before a realignment. You see things differently now because you’ve stopped forcing outcomes. The reversal of the Seven suggests coming clean — with yourself or others —and reclaiming integrity through perspective.

NO RETREAT FROM DONBAS — Ukraine’s position remains unchanged — Zelensky

Here are more key statements from the president’s latest press briefing:

▪️On Tomahawks: Zelensky suggests that Trump is avoiding escalation with Russia until he meets with them directly.

▪️Budapest is NOT an appropriate location for peace talks, given that Orbán blocks Ukraine at every turn.

▪️Putin called Trump over the Tomahawks, reacting to Trump’s rhetoric. “Russia is clearly afraid of that decision.”

▪️Russia is again pushing the false line that Ukraine is “preparing a new offensive” and is “not ready for a ceasefire.”

▪️“This war cannot be ended quickly. But we’re getting closer to an end.”

▪️Ukraine needs to secure gas worth $2 billion for the winter. Part of this funding has been found.

▪️The US will completely replace Russian gas in Europe. Russia has lost the European gas war to America.

▪️Ukraine could build 9 additional power units if cooperation with the US continues.

▪️“There are decisions Ukraine has no right to make, even under pressure.”

▪️Putin doesn’t need Donbas for its own sake — it’s a tool to create an illusion of success. But no one can guarantee he won’t go further later.

▪️Security guarantees remain Ukraine’s top priority. So far, Ukraine has signed 28 bilateral security agreements with international partners.

▪️“Right now, Trump is essentially giving Putin another chance.”

▪️Frontline updates: The situation in Pokrovsk is difficult. In Kupyansk, conditions have improved. “We’re holding our positions.”

🇷🇺 Putin Left Waiting Alone: Russia Cancels Its Own “Russia–Arab Summit” After Arab Leaders Decline Invitations

Moscow’s attempt to host a high-profile Russia–Arab summit collapsed this week after nearly every invited leader declined to attend.

According to Bloomberg, the Kremlin had spent months preparing the event, scheduled for October 15, under the grand slogan “Cooperation for Peace, Stability, and Security.” Invitations went out to the leaders of 22 Arab states, but by the time the date approached, the guest list was nearly empty.

“There just weren’t enough Arab leaders who said ‘yes’ to justify holding the summit,” the report noted. “That’s what forced Putin to postpone the event at the last minute — one he had hoped would strengthen his position in the region.”

The cancellation is a diplomatic embarrassment for Moscow, which has been working to present itself as a counterbalance to Western influence in the Middle East. Russia had hoped the forum would showcase its alliances in the Arab world, particularly following its joint efforts with Iran and Syria.

Instead, the decision highlights growing isolation even among nations that once maintained neutral or pragmatic ties with the Kremlin. Arab states — many of which are balancing relations with Washington, Beijing, and Moscow — appear increasingly reluctant to be seen endorsing Russia amid its continued war in Ukraine and deepening partnership with Iran.

The postponed summit underscores what Putin has long refused to admit: outside a shrinking circle of authoritarian allies, Russia’s “multipolar world” is looking increasingly one-sided.

Originally published, Monday, October 6, 2025 — Full Moon in Aries. Sun in Libra. Mercury enters Scorpio. Sukkot begins at sundown in the Jewish tradition. All eyes and ears point today to Mercury's grand entrance into the constellation Scorpio. Mercury will remain in Scorpio until October 29th.

Throughout the month of October, it will be the masculine planets Mercury and Mars, along with our Sun, which will be guiding our thoughts and actions for the most part, making for what might be regarded by some as a lively, action-filled month, with Venus' usual, annual mitigating influence muted this October, as she keeps to the sidelines in nearby Libra. One might say – full steam ahead, beginning now? That is, unless one opts to practice remaining mindful of a balanced Venus, in balanced Libra?

What you can do: If you do plan on jumping into the fray, along with what will no doubt prove to be an enhanced business climate this October, do stop short of throwing all caution completely to the wind, remembering to exercise at least some modicum of precaution, if not outright restraint.

Today's color: deep blood red

Current geopolitical star: Iran

Current geographical star: the Middle East

Sunday, October 5, 2025 — Sun in Libra. Moon in Pisces. — God has not planned or "taken care of" the outcome of things. That is our responsibility. God is however omniscient, omnipotent, and omnipresent, and is always with us. God doesn't proactively intervene in our lives or decide things for us. His primary role is to be always with us, and listening to us. — md.

Monday, September 22, 2025 — Members and new visitors: When you think of the characteristics of Libra, what is the first thought that enters your mind? Drop your one-word or one-sentence comment into the Comment field. Please take a moment to Like and share this page.

Fall Equinox. Sun enters Libra. Moon in Libra. Mabon in the Wiccan tradition. Rosh Hashanah begins at sundown. The Sun's annual entrance into balanced, social-oriented Libra marks the beginning of what might be regarded by some as the richest, most mysterious, and magickal phase of the Sun's annual progression through the twelve constellations. Seek to bask now in this late summer vibe, soaking up the often beautiful aura which surrounds us now, and in the weeks ahead.

Insight: Given that God's inherent nature is that of, omniscience, omnipotence, and omnipresence: God's role is not that He will assist us in a proactive way. Nor is it our role to assist Him in a proactive way.

Any assistance per se is merely a by-product of His inherent nature of perfection in the traits mentioned above, and our inherent nature of imperfection, learning, and growing spiritually.

God is listening, continuously detecting and discerning our learning progress, and our spiritual growth. This is the model to follow.

Today's color: sunrise orange

Symbols: white pillar; God as wise elder; archangel

Current Tarot: Temperance reversed

The Temperance reversed card signifies imbalance, extremes, or impatience; instead of harmony and measured blending, forces are pulling unevenly, urging you to slow down, recalibrate, and find moderation before things tip too far.
