The Albert Schweitzer Foundation campaigns for peaceful animal life and against factory farming.

- 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.

Daily aspects
The opposition between Mars and Saturn makes you careless, rebellious, selfish, and uncontrolled. You experience fluctuations between hard work and laziness, and depth and thoroughness may be missing. Your energy tends to be hectic and hard.
Mercury, in Capricorn, stands for a clear and logical mind. Now we can be more critical and more suspicious. We now have a more exceptional ability to concentrate on difficult tasks and are particularly interested in business matters. Maybe under a Capricorn Mercury, we won't learn particularly quickly, but we will undoubtedly learn things more thoroughly than usual. We are skilled and persistent.
Emotions rule. Relationships run harmoniously, as the feminine side is emphasized. Male and female energy combine, making you assertive, yet gentle with all dealings with other people.
The Square between Venus and Uranus is a romantic, distinctive, and original time in love. However, you are inconsistent in your feelings, moody, sensitive, and jealous. There is an urge for independence in love and strange eroticism. You will quickly establish romantic relationships, but break them up just as quickly.
This square gives you a powerful imagination, providing many negative thoughts and thought patterns. If you drink alcohol, you may become violent. You tend to extremism, and may come into contact with marginalized groups in society. Your strong sexual desire is difficult to satisfy, due to a lack of realism, and since it is easy to contract viruses right now, you may want to stick to pleasuring yourself. You may blame others when things go wrong.
This is a very favorable transit. It can bring you social success, as well as financial opportunities. You have a positive vibe and outlook on life, are sincere, and enjoy popularity. You can carry out philanthropic activities with ease. You are attractive, optimistic and have artistic interests. It's a great time for going out on dates and meeting your future spouse!
