A gradual weakening of structures that you have depended upon for stability may occur, and this cycle has a way of pinpointing the weakest links within and around you. Goals that you pursue may no longer hold your attention, and it can be a challenge to stay focused. To the extent that you are off course, this period tends to detect the slightest deviation. While this can make you more aware of subtle differences that you can correct for greater efficiency, you also may find that minor miscalculations may have a major impact on what you have already established. One purpose of this process is to become more aware of barely perceptible forces and the important role that they play in affecting outcomes.

Attention to detail is important here. Blind spots tend to cause problems, and you can overlook small items that turn out to be key elements. Although such oversights can be a nuisance and even debilitating, they help to show where you need to direct your attention in order to stay anchored and to remain secure. Conditions usually won?t allow you to stay too set in your ways, however, as you generally need flexibility in whatever you plan at this time. Being too rigid in your approach may make it nearly impossible to reach your objective since ambiguity is something that you typically must contend with at this time in order to get the results that you seek.

Confusing situations can arise that undermine your command or authority and can cause doubts. At the same time, you may lose faith in those who have charge over you. To gain respect during this period you generally must show authenticity in whatever you embody. This means that you and those around you probably recognize any distortion of the truth which tends to compromise the effectiveness of leadership. Seeing your way clearly through this time requires honesty in what you seek. What you find may disappoint you if you look closely, yet making adjustments now rather than avoiding them will make life smoother while alleviating any disillusionment in your status.
