=--a--=The Twelfth House being the house of tribulations, persecution, malice, secret enemies and treason, the passage through this house is, therefore, uncertain in its operation, and tends to produce experiences of a sorrowful nature, which will make it possible that you may suffer from treachery from the hidden enmity of supposed friends. Experiences will be had that are far from pleasant. You will come in contact with persons whose influence will not be beneficial. [Sidenote: TWELFTH HOUSE] =--b--=Domestic troubles will awaken the feelings and so cause you to worry and have troubles which are difficult to overcome, and it is more over now to be experienced and many strange events effecting the emotional side of nature will take place. It is not a good period on the whole, but some advantages will be gained in connection with psychic affairs. There will be danger of becoming somewhat jealous and resentful and one should, therefore, endeavor to keep the lower nature well under control. =--c--=As the year will prove a trying time all around, one should do all he can to avoid giving way to any evil tendencies. The starry-courses now in operation will cause you to be easily influenced by others, and hence as easily effected by degraded and impure conditions and surroundings as by the highest and most spiritual psychic influences. A slack time in business is also denoted. This will cause you to be easily inclined to fret and worry; but this is wrong, as it will react upon the health. =--d--=But in general it should be remembered that the influences are such that nothing can come to one that is not his own, and therefore, if you made no enemies in the past then there is nothing to fear during this year.
