You think you're being transparently obvious, but that's not the way other people see it when Mercury is opposite Neptune (September 25th). You're like the writer who thinks the text should speak for itself, and everyone else is the audience who hasn't a clue as to what your story's about. Now you could stand there and explain what all the symbolism means, or you can address their bewilderment. It seems sacrilegious having to deconstruct all the motifs and metaphors, but you may come to discover that they have a point. Things aren't as clear as they should be, and there really is room for improvement.
