"Frankly, Miss Plackett, you have a slight overlapping of the lunar returns, but cheer up and this goes for all you Capricorns. You have Saturn conjunct Mercury, which deepens the mind, and you have Venus, the love planet in trine with Pluto, which really gives you the go-ahead provided, of course, the new earth satellite doesn't come along and gum things up."
