The word, "Balsamic" sounds so serene and peaceful.  It is associated with the word, "balm," which is
a soothing, restorative medication.  Balsamic vinegar is vinegar which has been "toned down" into a
more relaxed flavor. So, that is what this three day phase is all about; calming, soothing, toning down
oneself from the near-month long lunar intensity.

The fixed star, Regulus, is rising in the East at 30º in Washington, D. C.  I would imagine that our leader
is on his way back from Camp David about this time.  The Aquarius Moon will semisquare Pluto from
the 6th House of  employment and  health care keeping those issues in the minds of families and
congress even though some say, "one issue at a time!"

The Aries Sun will square Pluto tomorrow after lunch and the banking issues are still powerful for the
next three days at least.

Venus and Mercury are the rulers of the President.  With Mercury conjunct Uranus, he's had a change
of mind or a unique answer to propose this week concerning the CEOs and "Bank Bailouts."  We
should find out by tomorrow's evening news. Venus, retrograde in the 8th, gives more time (about 2
months) for him to implement his plan.
