Samah – equality
«One who makes no distinction between friend and foe, honour and dishonour, knowing Brahman to be full in itself (all pervading), becomes supremely happy» (Vijñāna Bhairava Tantra, 125, Dhāranā on equality).
One of the most famous definitions of yoga comes from the Bhagavad-Gita and teaches that yoga is samatva, equanimity. To remain unperturbed by the experiences, pleasant or unpleasant as they may be, is one of the most difficult virtues to learn. On the other hand, it is acquired only after having understood that every event in life can have a useful implication for your own growth.
Neptune confusion will be felt again now that you have quite a few planets in opposition. It will not be easy to move forward this September. Take it as a test: if in the first half of the month you manage not to blurt out due to nervousness, in the second half this agitation could take you to the peak of your activity, opening up new creative possibilities and determining the way for your future..
