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."

After all, Dr. Blahr does it all the time - suppose I just read it to you - you can go right on sewing..."
