Street Roots Vendor Jason Bo HOROSCOPES By Soup Can Sam, sta ff astrologist Gemini (May 21-June 21) It’s time to face the night. The day time too. Step outside of yourself this week, and do something spontaneous. If you aren’t taking some risks than I’m afraid you are not reaching your full potential. Sometimes it’s a wing, and a prayer, or for you non-religious folks, it’s a wing and oh let’s see, wishful thinking? Your mom’s prayers, and your wishful thinking should be good enough. Go for it! Cancer (June 22-July 22) We all know you’re a freak. That’s just the way it is. We love you for it If you need to get your freak on, that’s A OK with Soup Can. So long as nobody gets hurt. Freak it out, yo. Sky is the limit. Leo (July 23-Aug. 23) Don’t sweat the small stuff. Seriously. Keep those oppressive thoughts out of your head, and concentrate on the simple things that make you happy. Do something kind for others, and stop breaking your own self down so damn much. If you haven’t figured it but by now, urri, well, you aren’t going to figure it out anytime soon. Be nice. To. Yourself. Virgo (Aug. 24-Sept. 22) One and two and' three and four;.. Oh, my friends, there, is so much more; Avoid being1 thrown off your rhythm. Keep a steady beat1 and you’ll do just fine. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) It’s springtime in the city. Put a pretty bouquet together, even iflt means borrowing some flowers from friends and neighbors. City rule No. 1 : If the flowers hang over into thé sidewalk, you can take one. Be careful though, and don’t be greedy. Make someone somewhere Smile; Flowers alwaÿs do the trick. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Everyone knows you are a lightning rod. Light up the night sky! Don’t be afraid to shine. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. T9) If you think you’re smarter than the next gal or fella down the line. You’re wrong. Like, way wrong. So wrong that you might just learn something by listening instead of yack, yack, yacking all the time. This week, it would do us all good to just shut the hell up and make nice. The world will be a much more enjoyable place. Promise! Pisces (Feb. 20-MarCh 20) Looking for love in all the wrong places. Looking for love in too many faces. Looking for love. Haven’t found it. Yep. It’s a bitch being single and not knowing what the next step is. Don’t fret. About the time you give up on everything and everyone, someone will walk into your life. Don’t be afraid to make the move, Move it. Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 23) We’ve been at this point before.,Unsure of what you should be doing with your free time. Not exactly sure of where you fit into it all. Take solace Aries (March 21-April 20) I can’t do this anymore. in knowing that you and about six billion other creatures on Your future is entirely up to you, and I would have to this rock feel the same way. So while you may be feeling question my ability to tell you your future anyway. alienated, so are a lot of other people. If you open your ' heart and mind, you’ll be bumping into likeminded people in Good luck. no time. Bump it up! Capricorn (Dec. 24-Jan. 19) So much laughter, so much magic, so much of everything that makes your, spastic. Spaz out. Dance in your underwear. Sleep in. Stay up late, take your jammies to breakfast. It’s Portland for Christ’s sake. Find something somewhere and enjoy the weirdness. Don’t take for granted that you live in the land of liberal oddballs. It’s better than ? the alternative, trust Soup Can. Taurus (April 21-May 20) I’ve studied and researched your sign. I’ve looked at the stars and considered the opinions of many great astrologers that have come before. I’ve pondered your week and thought about your future for hours. And to be honest, there s really not a lot there. Either everything is normal, or you’re screwed. And maybe getting screwed is normal for you. Your guess is as good as mine. Street Beets SSSTA.
