G txm e ic on ene Philip Thompson ’ ARIES (21 Mar-20 April) Time again to sort through the jumble your life has become. Fortunately, you're up for it. You're so attractive it's a scandal and energetic enough to be a hazard. The pony of your karma is snorting, fires are lit, meaningful looks are exchanged. Don't let the game play you. Build on your strengths, avoid wallowing in usual pleasures, and dance with light feet. LIBRA (23 Sept-22 Oct) A month of kicking rump, taking names, and settling things. Life out of balance in a larger equilibrium. Paths of least resistance sometimes run uphill but seldom involve leaping off cliffs. No harmony without discipline, no discipline without sense of self. I lum your power song and see who applauds. It could be the other half of a successful duet TAURUS (21 April-20 May) Happy solar return. You're feeling a little coltish Or calfish. In the end, it doesn't matter. Your mantra this month is Whoopee!, and any work that can't be turned into play should be rescheduled. Except for transforming the fuzzy into the clear. Expect to fall in love, wonder what you're doing, and question who you are. Fee, free to giggle at the answers. SCORPIO (23 Oct-22 Nov) On a good day, you can leap hurdles with your shoe laces tied. This is a month of good days. Unless, of course, you mistake challenges for obstacles and friends for competitors. Work with your partners instead of around them and find something to laugh about Remember it's a long game and that most pressures are self induced. Uninduce them. GEMINI (21 May-20 June) The usual drill: the toy soldiers of your psyche march out of step in different directions. Not to worry, they almost know where they're going. Surrender to urges to hole up and check the map. As long as you can see the goal, it's okay to fade back and punt. Expect a little vaguery and the accompanying fade of confidence. In the beginning was the plan. SAGITTARIUS (23 Nov-21 Dec) You're in a high stakes game and one of the many lessons poker teaches us is that the only hand you can play is your own. A great month to study the myth of control and the role of compassion and cooperation in human affairs. You're shining just now and much can be accomplished. If it's a good game, even the losers win. CANCER (21 June-22 July) If anything exists outside of work, you'd be smart not to notice it. For all things a season, this one's for completing projects begun, and transforming ideas into accomplishments. Bring your talents to bear on real answers, perhaps with questions other than your own. Work for the joy that's in it and nothing, not even your own misgivings, can stop you. CAPRICORN (22 Dec-19 Jan) The goat dance of spring continues. Don't second guess your urge to recreate. Your real job is to be human and there are no days off, even if you spend them chasing your tail in the moonlight. You may stub your toe but you won't break a leg and your spirit of abandon can be inspirational. Undervaluing foolishness is the act of a fool. LEO (23 July-22 August) Yes, dear, you're smart as a whip. But there are things you don't know. I.earn them. There are people you should schmooze with. Schmooze with them. Live for your work and everything is work related; live for your ego and notliing works. Orient yourself to a goal, manage your own affairs, and wait for nothing. What you plant now bears fast ripening fruit. AQUARIUS (20 Jan-18 Feb) Basically speaking, more of the same. Security issues nag quietly, progress and movement on all fronts. The big picture lies in the details, large gears are turned by little ones. Trust your hunches, change what you must, and refuse to be fooled, even by yourself. Don't doubt your ability to be difficult and cut your loved ones some slack. They're not you. VIRGO (23 August-22 Sept) Find what's out of your control in your life and rein that pony in. In the sitcom of life, character is plot, and the ends of things are in their beginnings. Challenge assumptions and habits and lean on no on but yourself. Stand up, cast a shadow, and avoid submerging yourself in partnerships. Expect the simple to be complex, the complex to be simple. PISCES (19 Feb-20 March) What exactly is it you're arguing about? And who, aside from you, cares? If you want to lead, do something worth imitating. A good beginning would be to look at beauty instead of its warts, at love instead of naked self interest. The poet of your soul is at risk of becoming a bean counter. There are things in this world worth dying to prevent.
