BY ROB BREZSNY
ARIES (March 21-April 19): Green Day singer Billie
Joe Armstrong tells this story: “A guy walks up to me and says,
‘What’s punk?’ I kick over a garbage can and say, ‘That’s punk.’
So the guy kicks over a garbage can and says, ‘That’s punk?’
And I say ‘No, that’s trendy.’” Keep this tale in mind in the com-
ing week, Aries. There’s no need and no excuse for you to be
like the trendy guy. You should be like Billie Joe, the one who
kicks over the garbage can the first time.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Traditional
astrologers say Tauruses are rampant materialists. While it’s
true that members of your sign often have a robust relationship
with money, I find that many of you also have a refined and vig-
orous appreciation of beauty. In fact, I think an aesthetically
pleasing environment is crucial for your mental and spiritual
health. In the coming week, you should devote extra time and
care to this need. Purge ugliness from your surroundings.
Introduce elements that excite your eye and stimulate your
imagination. Your symbol of power: the thousand-year-old rose
bush that grows next to the wall of Germany’s Hildeshiem
Cathedral.
GEMINI
(May 21-June 20): For one week, try
this exercise: Each night before you fall asleep, review the day’s
activities in your mind’s eye. As if watching a movie about your-
self, strive to be calmly objective as you observe your memories
from the previous 16 hours. Be especially alert for moments
when you strayed from your purpose and didn’t live up to your
highest standards. If you’re feeling adventurous, I also recom-
mend that you spend a day doing a review of all of your life’s
highlights since your last birthday. Pick a time when you have a
few hours to spare, lie back and close your eyes, and watch with
compassionate gratitude as the amazing plot lines unfold.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): “Creativity is like
driving a car at night,” said E. L. Doctorow. “You never see fur-
ther than your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that
way.” I would add that life itself is also like driving a car at night.
You’re pretty much in the dark all the time except for what’s
right in front of you. Or at least that’s usually the case. But for a
few shining hours in the coming week, Cancerian, I believe you’ll
be able to see the big picture of where you’re headed. It will be
as if the whole world is suddenly illuminated by a prolonged
burst of light; as if you’re both driving your car and also watch-
ing your journey from high above.
LEO
(July 23-Aug. 22): Actress Lara Flynn Boyle was
recently accused of acting oddly on a British Airways flight from
Los Angeles to London. Witnesses have said nudity and extreme
lack of inhibition were involved. When Boyle was confronted by
40 APRIL 21, 2005
reporters with the rumors, she refused to elaborate, noting sim-
ply, “My job is to entertain, and not to explain.” I hereby declare
that to be both your motto and mantra in the coming week, Leo.
uncomfortable than Diesel’s. I won’t mind if you bitch about
them the whole time, but please bear in mind how innocuous
they will all turn out to be.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): My friend Kathleen trav- CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Drugs
eled to Maui with her 9-year-old daughter Ariel. They checked
into an ocean-side condo. At 5 am on their first morning there,
Ariel crept over to Kathleen’s bed and repeatedly whispered,
“Let’s go see the sea turtles.” Rising out of the depths of sleep,
Kathleen was torn. Part of her was peeved at the intrusion
because she wanted to luxuriate in bed till late morning.
Another part of her longed to glimpse the turtles, which only
appeared in the cove once a day at dawn. Kathleen decided to
join Ariel, conquering her annoyance and putting aside her
desire for comfort. The payoff was worth it. Seeing the turtles
while in a dreamy state was an unforgettable joy. I predict you
will be faced with a comparable situation in the coming week,
Virgo. I suggest you choose as Kathleen did.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): One of my ex-girlfriends
had heart surgery when she was an infant. They opened her
tiny chest, fixed the problem, and sewed her back up, leaving a
two-inch scar on her skin. By the time she became an adult, the
scar had grown along with the rest of her, stretching to eight
inches. I regard this as a good metaphor for the way our early
psychic wounds expand as we mature. Having said that, though,
I’m happy to report that you now have en excellent chance to
dramatically dissipate the lingering pain of an old trauma, as
well as to shrink the scar it made. Please take maximum advan-
tage of the healing energy available.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): While mountain
biking, I spied a white horse engaged in odd behavior in a mead-
ow. Over and over again, it took two steps forward and two
steps back. Was it neurotic or distraught? I decided to sit and
watch. Five minutes went by. Ten. Still it continued its routine.
Finally I got inspired to pray for it. “Dear Goddess,” I said,
“please at least let that poor horse go three steps forward and
two steps back.” Moments later, the creature started doing
exactly what I’d prayed for. Slowly, it made progress across the
field. Now I’m saying a similar prayer for you: “Dear Goddess,
please help Scorpios escape their treadmill-like pace, and go at
least three steps forward for every two backward.”
SAGITTARIUS
(Nov. 22-Dec. 21):
Actor Vin Diesel was describing the work required of him in the
film, The Pacifier. “The hardest stunt I ever had to do was allow
my ear to be gnawed on by a duck,” he said. I fully expect that
among the many stunts you will be asked to perform in the
coming weeks, Sagittarius, none will be more dangerous or
don’t give Indian holy man Mangal Das a buzz. Maybe he has
meditated too much to be affected by mere chemicals. In his
quest for experience that takes him outside of his usual aware-
ness, he has also arranged to be bitten by snakes and scorpions.
Unfortunately, that doesn’t give him a kick, either. He even tried
drinking elixirs made from toxic herbs, but there was no bang to
be had. Finally he found an intoxicant that worked: touching live
wires. Now he enjoys getting an electrical shock every day. I
wouldn’t be surprised if you soon embarked on a comparable
quest to expand your thrills, Capricorn. But please limit your
search to things that are really good for you. Avoid the shock
and poison options.
AQUARIUS
(Jan. 20-Feb. 18): A Bengal
tiger at a zoo in Burma killed one of her two-week-old cubs. Zoo
officials decided to separate her from her other two cubs. They
did so reluctantly because the Bengal tiger is an endangered
species and these were the first cubs born in the zoo in 16
years. Putting out a call for a surrogate mother, the officials
were relieved when a 40-year-old woman, a mother of three
children, pledged to breast-feed the cubs until their teeth grew
in. Although your pressing need has arisen from very different
factors, Aquarius, you, like the cubs, should be open to receiving
nourishment from exotic sources in the coming weeks.
PISCES
(Feb. 19-March 20): Centuries ago, the
sight of a Viking ship on the horizon cast dread into the hearts
of villagers who lived on the east coast of what’s now Britain.
Rightfully so: The Norse raiders were infamous for plundering
and killing. Today, though, the Vikings frighten no one. The loss
of their status as a symbol of fear is epitomized by the silly
replica of a Viking ship that a Dutchman named Robert
McDonald is building out of 15 million lollipop sticks. This trans-
formation is a good analogy for the process that should unfold
in your life during the coming weeks, Pisces. Something that has
always scared you is ready to be reduced to a harmless cartoon.
