Every morning I think about topics to write about… and I usually come up with a few, only to not have enough time during the day to actually spout off on the topic.. So, don’t think that I’m dodging the Blog because I have nothing to say. I truly do. It’s just that I don’t have the time to put the words to the keyboard and jot them down.
Anyway, here’s my horoscope.. my last Horoscope posting caused so much stir, I figured why not post another one, right?
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): So begins the Potent Dreaming phase of the
year for you, Taurus. In the coming weeks, the adventures you have while
you sleep will be far more interesting than any movie you could see in a
theater. Some of your dreams may be the nighttime equivalent of wild
goose chases and shaggy dog stories, with no discernible plots or
meaning. But the revelations you receive in others could change your life
forever with useful lessons and brilliant insights. To help you remember
these spiritual gifts from your subconscious mind, please keep a pen and
notebook near your bed.
VERY interesting.. I’ve had some crazy dreams this past week.. none of them I can remmeber now, but it does seem like a fun horoscope. For a while I was writing down dreams every night.. saying “I will remember my dreams, I will remember my dreams, I will remember my dreams..” as I drifted off to sleep. It works, trust me. Also, the more you think about your dreams and write them down, the more you remember. IT got to the point where I was having 3-4 dreams a night and I’d remember the details of all of em.
It got a little overwhelming though. All this stuff was going on at night, and I prefered to just let my dreams be, so I could get a good night sleep without all the action.
Maybe this is a sign I should start doing htis again (or at least for this week) to try to see what my subconcious mind is telling me..

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Many supposedly scientific debunkers deride
astrology but have done almost no research on the subject. That’s one
reason why these ill-informed “skeptics” spread so many ignorant lies. For
instance, they say that astrologers think the stars and planets emit
invisible beams that affect people’s lives. The truth is, most astrologers
don’t believe any such thing. Is there any way in which you engage in
behavior similar to the lazy debunkers, Aries? What subjects do you speak
about with authority even though you really don’t know much about
them? Do you ever spout opinions about situations you’ve never
experienced first-hand? Do you pass judgment on ideas you’ve never
studied and people you’ve never spent time with? We all do these things–
I confess to being guilty of it myself–but this is your special time to make
amends.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): So begins the Potent Dreaming phase of the
year for you, Taurus. In the coming weeks, the adventures you have while
you sleep will be far more interesting than any movie you could see in a
theater. Some of your dreams may be the nighttime equivalent of wild
goose chases and shaggy dog stories, with no discernible plots or
meaning. But the revelations you receive in others could change your life
forever with useful lessons and brilliant insights. To help you remember
these spiritual gifts from your subconscious mind, please keep a pen and
notebook near your bed.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You can, of course, choose to ignore the
invitations that life will offer you in the coming weeks. Having free will
means you can always refuse to go with the cosmic flow. But if you
*would* like to weave the threads of a higher destiny into the fabric of
your humdrum routine, you should meditate on how you can be more of a
leader. Are there ways you could energize a group or organization you’re
part of? Are you ready to seize the initiative in one of your close
relationships, shepherding it into a new era? Are you willing to summon
the courage to rise above the hypnotic numbness of the daily grind,
stretching your imagination to see the big picture?
CANCER (June 21-July 22): “All human beings should try to learn what
they are running from, and to, and why,” said James Thurber. Judging
from the astrological omens, Cancerian, I think this is the perfect time for
you to take his advice very seriously. You’re in position to see things that
are normally invisible to you, including secrets you hide from yourself and
truths you have studiously avoided knowing. Maybe you don’t think
you’re telepathic, but I assure you that right now you at least have the
power to read your own deep and mysterious mind.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): In her memoir, *Lipstick Jihad,* Azadeh Moaveni
describes life in Iran under the crushing oppression of its fundamentalist
rulers. She says young people pursue an “‘as if’ lifestyle,” pretending it’s
permitted “to hold hands on the street, blast music at parties, speak your
mind, challenge authority, take your drug of choice, wear too much
lipstick.” It’s a strenuous game, requiring intricate strategies to
circumvent the many prohibitions enforced by the morality police. I
suggest that you take your cue from these covert freedom fighters, Leo.
Start by identifying the big NO that constantly casts a shadow over your
life. Does it come from voices inside your head or from external
authorities? Live as if you were free to be yourself completely, without
having to answer to your personal version of Iran’s dour mullahs.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “You can’t depend on your judgment,” said
Mark Twain, “when your imagination is out of focus.” And since your
imagination is more than a little fuzzy and aimless right now, Virgo, I
recommend that you postpone decisions that would require you to have
acute judgment. On the other hand, don’t get twisted out of shape about
it. It’s not a big problem. All you have to do to sharpen up your
imagination is expose it in a concentrated way to some great works of art
or music or literature.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Some journalists have been expressing pious
outrage about baseball players who may have enhanced their physical
abilities with steroids. Next maybe they will turn their attention to
computer pioneers whose revolutionary innovations in the ’70s and ’80s
were spurred by their ingestion of psychedelic drugs; and musicians,
writers, filmmakers, and actors whose creativity is primed by dope and
booze; and politicians like the first President George Bush, who regularly
took Halcion, a sleeping pill with side effects like amnesia, anxiety attacks,
and paranoia; and the millions of average people who make life-changing
decisions while in the grip of psychotropics like Prozac or that powerful
drug, caffeine. What’s your performance-enhancing, mind-altering
substance of choice, Libra? Whatever it is, this is the week you should
fully acknowledge its impact on your destiny. Celebrate its gifts and
analyze its downsides.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): It’s a good time for you to think about your
relationship to human beings who haven’t been born yet. Is there
anything you can do to be more conscious about making your life a gift to
the future? What might you create that would enhance the destinies of
our descendants? How can you conduct yourself so that you will not only
help preserve the wonders we live amidst, but actually enhance them? As
you ponder your possible contributions–and maybe also take practical
action to deepen your commitment to them–keep in mind this thought
from Lewis Carroll: “It’s a poor sort of memory that only works
backward.”
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): The transition you’ll soon be going
through should be exceptionally dramatic and fun, if a bit abrupt. You’ll be
evolving from a slow, sleepy meander to a savvy, scintillating bolt. As you
finish getting your psychic batteries recharged, you’ll accelerate quickly
and be in sleek, fast motion before you know what’s happening. Bid
goodbye to your sabbatical, Sagittarius; say “yow” to the brilliant, bracing
adventure.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): March 18 is Awkward Moments Day. It was
created by the authors of the book, *Awkward Moments: Celebrating the
Humor in Life’s Uncomfortable Situations.* They tout the value of
harnessing opportunities that open up when you or someone else does
something embarrassing, clumsy, or clueless. I suggest you try exactly
what they recommend, Capricorn. More than any other sign of the zodiac,
you now have the potential to take maximum advantage of everything
that’s dicey, thorny, and ticklish.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): A recent poll revealed that more and more
people are enjoying oral sex. In the last three years alone, the percentage
has increased from 74 to 79 percent. For members of the Aquarian tribe,
that figure is likely to zoom precipitously upward in the coming weeks, as
will the sheer number of erotic encounters involving the lips and tongue.
In fact, *all* activities involving pleasure with the mouth are likely to lead
to success and happiness, including (but not limited to) gourmet eating,
loud singing, and wild talking. For extra credit, try combining two
activities: gourmet eating and wild talking, for instance, or singing and
oral sex.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Please read my Cancer horoscope this week.
There I’ve quoted an interesting observation by the writer James Thurber,
then added some related ideas of my own. In a sense, I’ve collaborated
with Thurber. I’ve blended my mind with his, and together we have come
up with counsel that includes both of our thoughts but offers wisdom
that’s more than the sum of its parts. I suggest that you use this
strategy in the coming week, Pisces. Choose people whose lives or work
you admire, and work together to create synergies that draw on both
their genius and yours.
