The planets encourage spiritual consciousness. It is a fortunate sway for the clergy who will ex- tend their duties greatly in the line of wholesale helpfulness to those in distress. i Heart and Home: Women should be extremely fortunate today. It is a time for preparation, since there is an aspect presaging much acti- vity outside the home. Depressing foreign news will inspire practical service in raising money and in| providing supplies for the unfortu- nate of other lands. This is a prom- ising rule of the stars for love af- fairs. The current young man friend is apt to take things ser-| iously. BUSINESS AFFAIRS: Banks may be inclined to tighten the grip on| mon although loans to manu- facturers will be widespread. Slight | recessions in various industries are forecast for coming months, but trade will be fair and employment more gneral than in 1939. Debt collections may be slow owing to a growing American habit of using cash for travel and amusements, | while allowing creditors to wait. National Issues: Many men and | women of varied viewpoints will dis- ! turb the plans of political parties. Healing of old Democratic sores | may be only temporary. The stars| indicate that the planetary influ- ences which make dictators possi- ble will affect party leaders and give President Roosevelt extraor- dinary power in the future. International Affairs: The stars seem to presage for Hitler’s in-| creased recklessness in hi$ - war ampaign policies. This is a month of sinister possibilities. Comipeti- | tion between the two leading’dicta- | tors will bring about amazing re-| sults in which Stalin will shew his | ireacherous character.
