Quotes from Albert Schweitzer
- To think with the heart is the right way for man.
- Man is ethical only if he regards life as such, that of plants and animals and that of man, as sacred, and if he gives himself helpfully to life in need.
- I have become a person who is somewhat dangerous for others because I represent the thought among them that all happiness we experience means that we must give away something of our lives for it.
- He who undertakes to do good must not expect that people will remove stones from his path because of it but must be prepared for the fateful thing that they will roll some on him.
- Animals cannot speak, yet they think much more than we imagine

Daily aspects
extile Mars (Scorpio) This aspect gives you the ability to communicate well with the opposite sex. Good relationships will occur at work, and you'll feel a lot of drive to achieve more - or even have a side project working from home. You may also have a craving to eat hot and spicy food, so go take your partner, or friends, to the closest Indian or Mexican restaurant! Just know that it'll be easy to burn off the extra calories, as you'll be inspired to exercise more.
Fun and entertainment are the order of the day at Aquarius Moon. The relationship with friends, fraternity, and social issues touch us deeply. Now it is the best time to do something crazy together, but also to get involved in social causes.
extile Saturn (Sagittarius) This transit increases your sense of responsibility and organizational talent. You will be able to pursue your goals with care and deliberation. It's a good time to get together with women in groups, and discuss important issues.
This transit can cause a dreamy disposition, passive attitude, tendency to self-deception, imbalance, hypersensitivity, weakened instinctual life, and nervous disorders. You could also get lost in wishful thinking. Try not watch horror movies during this time, as it may disturb you, and could lead to vivid nightmares.
During this time, you can be eccentric, headstrong, fanatic, over-the-top, irritable, and extremely moody. It's not a good time to deal with money, with regards to business or property. You and your romantic partner may get into arguments at home.
When Mars is in Sagittarius, we develop a passionate temperament. We are enthusiastic speakers and like to deal with philosophy and religion. We love sports and love to travel, build enthusiasm for independence and freedom. We hate all that's trivial and small. We are brave, generous, open, and transparent in negotiations. We develop a strong sense of self and work tirelessly. However, there is also the danger of being arrogant.
This could be a frustrating time as opposites collide. Mars, with its impetuous energy, wants to get things done right away and comes across Saturn, the "Lord" of time, who takes his own time in doing things. This fact is precisely the conflict you have to deal with. If you have a lot of energy, it is advisable to do hard physical work, or exercise for a few days, so that you can assess any problems objectively.
extile Neptune (Scorpio) 
The Square between Mars and Jupiter can make you overextend yourself in business, which can cause you to lose money and ruin your reputation. It is better to be cautious and moderate during this time. Lay off any D-I-Y projects at home, and avoid any long journeys, especially on planes. It is best to avoid any dangerous, or risky, activities. It is also not a good time to sign up to any educational institutes, or promote your own political agendas.
