THE INHARMONIOUS ASPECTS

These are far more restless than the Trine or Sextile. The mental powers are often good, as
the examples below will confirm, but they are frequently used on behalf of unpopular or
unconventional causes, or in such a way as to do the native but little good in a worldly sense. There
is a fatal tendency to imprudence, carelessness, love of hazard, and blind optimism: they may result
in serious loss and financial or social entanglements. There is often a youthful and boyish freshness
that is quite as pleasant to behold as the steadier effects of the Trines and Sextile; but this juvenility
may lead to catastrophes when it means that there is a young head on old shoulders and the
responsibilities of age are carried in the spirit of the schoolboy.
They are adventurous and get into strange places and they do not care for grooves or
drudgery at all, in this respect contrasting with the tranquil good contacts.
They are prone to ignore authority and convention and can be self-opiniated and rebellious.
Sometimes there is a tendency to vainglory and show, but this depends, for its outward
manifestation, on Saturn, which may restrain open ostentation and relegate this propensity to the
unconscious whence may arise harmless but foolish dreams of pomp and circumstance.
