You're even more attractive than usual, and the cosmos has decreed that what might have been greedy in the past is just right now. If you're in an interesting monogamous relationship, on the other hand, don't mess it up with fantasies of polyamory. Instead, brainstorm with your partner about how you could provide more variety for each other. Dress up in dif- ferent roles, for instance. Speak with funny accents invent new names, or pretend you're living in anoth'. er historical period. How would you do your love dance if you were members of the French Resistance in World War II or escaped American slaves headed for freedom circa 1863? TAURUS (April 20-May 20iin you're typical, your memory is not very efficient; by tomor- row at this time you will have forgotten much of what you learned today. But you cannot afford to be typical during the next 10 days, Taurus. It's crucial to the ultimate success of your long-term dreams that you remember far more than you usually do. I don't care how you do it: Intensify your perceptive- ness, try memory-strengthening exercises, take massive doses of ginkgo biloba, or all of the above. Become as aggressively receptive and absorptive as you have ever dared to be. . GEMINI (May 2{-June 20): Can you be a dissatisfied rebel and exuberant lover of life at the same time? can you identify all the things that are wrong without losing your bemused tolerance? I think you can, especially this week. You won't have any role models to draw from, though, so you'll have to trust your intuition and the following advice: Be a happy bitch! A playful protester! A sweet-tem- pered complainer! The goodies will come to you if you overthrow the status quo with inventiveness and compassion. ' coaster . Say a rowdy prayer each time you lick a Tootsie Roll Pop, and don't stop until you reach the center. Round up someone - pay him or her if nec- essary - to be your yes-man or yes-woman for 24 hours. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): After studying the cosmic omens, I realized I'd be unable to glean your oracle until I was standing on holy ground. I left immediately for Spirit Rock Meditation Center, a Buddhist sanctuary near my home. There I sought out the outdoor prayer wheel, a brightly painted wooden cylinder inscribed with noble phras- es like "wise speech" and "wise intention." Buddhists believe that when this ritual device is spun on its axis, spiritual blessings are cast in all directions. As I reached for one of the handles to give it a whirl, I spied an awesome sight: Four sala- manders had arrayed themselves on the section of the wheel that read "wise livelihood." I knew I'd found my message for you, Scorpio . This week, do everything possible to get closer to making your money by serving your highest ideals. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec . 21): In 1977, English professor Coleman Barks had a dream that changed his life. In the dream, he was relaxing on a riverbank near his childhood home in Georgia. A balf of light floated towards him. It con- tained a man with his head bowed and eyes closed, sitting cross-legged and wearing a white shawl. The man raised his head, opened his eyes, and said, "I love you," and Barks answered, "I love you, too." Some time after this dream, he met the same mys- terious figure in waking life. It was a Sri Lankan holy man, Bawa Muhaiyaddeen, who ultimately set Barks on the path to becoming a translator of the dead mystic poet Rumi. Today Rumi's books are bestsellers, largely due to Barks. I predict you will soon have a dream with equally potent possibilities for your fate, Sagittarius. I hope to God you remem- ' ber it and write it down. CANCER (June 21-July 22): I'm sure CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.19): you've had the experience of a song popping into The "problem" you now face ·is unprecedented: You your head and refusing to leave, as if it had taken are seeing too clearly, thinking too crisply, and one of your brain circuits hostage.

You will have cosmic law on your side if you attempt to do what a few mystics have claimed to accomplish : fall in love with the Divine Wow. Please note·that the right kind of human partner can facili- tate this erotic breakthrough; the wrong kind will distract you from it. Now read what the Indian saint Ramakrishna had to say: "Mad!
