Good-bye rat race, hello paradise

There’s no need to wait until retirement to get out of the big city rat race. Younger workers in their 30s and 40s are decamping without the cushion of retirement benefits to take advantage of living in paradise while working less. While Costa Rica and Panama have long been expat destinations, Portugal and Vietnam are joining the list as they become popular with so-called digital nomads and others who want to leave the fast-paced life in their former hometowns for something simpler. These nomads generally run online businesses that are flexible enough to let them move on a whim. They usually work fewer hours than peers in the corporate world. BBC; Oct 17. http://bbc.in/1vQhDnI

The cardinal ingresses of the Sun have a traditional reputation as  important mundane events. Shown here is the chart for Sun’s entry into sidereal Libra at London on October 18.  As always our attention is drawn to planets or planetary configurations that aspect the angles. Here we find the asteroid Vesta [1]on the Ascendant square Neptune.

VESTA: Commitment to work; using work as a compensation; dedication to accomplishment or goals; emotional distancing; hard work and career demands.

NEPTUNE: Sensitivity; vulnerability; disillusionment; desire to escape, cushion or beautify Reality; attunement to Other Worlds.

Vesta/Neptune

There may be some instances where  decisions have to be made in terms of whether one's work violates their  sensitivities...or whether one is being exploited or taken advantage of  because of their dedication or in terms of their job. There may, therefore,  arise a desire to escape from hard work that careers demand.
