Me: Man. #901924 BY ROB BREZSNY ARIES (March 21-April 19): The age-old question comes up for review once again: Which should predominate, independence or in- terdependence? The answer is always different, of course, depending on the tenor of the time and the phase of your evolution. But in the coming weeks, at least, my view is that you should put more emphasis on interdependence. I think you’ll reap huge benefi ts from wholeheart- edly blending your energies with allies whose power and intelligence match yours. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): I fi nd many of you Tauruses to be excessively self-effacing. It’s a trait that can be both endearing and maddening. Even as my heart melts in the presence of Bulls who are underestimating their own beauty, I may also feel like grabbing them by the shoulders and shaking some confi dence into them, barraging them with frustrated exhortations like “Believe in yourself as much as I believe in you, for God’s sake!” But I’m guessing I won’t be tempted to do that anytime soon. You appear to be due for a big infl ux of self- esteem. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): It will be good week to let your mind go utterly blank while slouching in front of a TV and sipping warm milk, or to spend hours curled up in a ball under the covers on your bed as you berate yourself with guilty insults for the mistakes you’ve made in your life. NOT! I’m kidding! Please don’t you dare do anything like that. It would be a terrible waste of the rowdy astrological omens that are coming to bear on you. Here are some better ideas: Go seek the fi re on the mountain! Create a secret in the sanctuary! Learn a trick in the dark! Find a new emotion in the wilderness! Study the wisest, wildest people you know so that you, too, can be wildly wise! CANCER (June 21-July 22): This would be an excellent week to grieve madly and deeply about the old love affairs that shattered your heart. I’ve rarely seen a better astrological confi guration than there is now for purging the residual anguish from those old romantic col- lapses. So I suggest you conduct a formal ritual that will provide total exorcism and bring you maximum catharsis. Maybe you could build a shrine containing the photos and objects that keep a part of you stuck in the past, and maybe you could fi nd the bold words and innovative gestures that will bid goodbye to them forever. Do you have any intu- itions about how to create a rousing healing ceremony? (July 23-Aug. 22): The History cable TV channel has a reality TV show called Ice Road Truckers. It documents the exploits of drivers who haul heavy loads in their 18-wheelers for long distances across frozen rivers and lakes and swamps in Alaska and northwest Canada. They bring supplies to remote outposts where humans work exotic jobs like mining diamonds and drilling for natural gas. If you have any truck-driving skills, Leo, you’d be a good candidate to apply for a gig on the show. According to my analysis of the astrological omens, your 30 JANUARY 20, 2011 EUGENE WEEKLY COUNTRY BOY LOVE am looking for the “right” woman to love after 12 years of being single. I have learned a lot about myself and not to depend on a woman to cook. alanwall, 63, g , #105875 LOVING CUDDLY KIND to know more you may have to ask , I am only doing this right now because I want to send an email to a fabulous woman on here. livin4fundon, 48, g , #105857 Free Will Astrology LEO I am in an open marriage and am looking for someone to hang out with during the day. I am very good looking, honest, smart, funny and a bit kinky. open- minded, 41, g , #105888 UNDERGROUND ACCOMPLICE Still, don’t need to know the future. Just want to spend time w/you, live life as it comes. One of many things we’re good at together. That kind of uncompli- cated. When: Tuesday, June 23, 2009. Where: Brooklyn. You: Man. Me: Woman. #901927 levels of courage and adventurousness will be at an all-time high in 2011. May I suggest, though, that you try to make your romps in the frontier more purely pleasurable than what the ice road truckers have to endure. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Pop chanteuse Katy Perry is renowned not only for her singing ability but also for her physical appearance. Her preternatural ability to sell her musical products can be attributed in part to her sparkling good looks and charisma. That’s why it was amusing when her husband, the trickster Russell Brand, Twittered a raw photo of her that he took as she lifted her head off the pillow, awakening from a night of sleep. (See it at tinyurl.com/RealKaty.) Without her make-up, Katy’s visage was spectacularly ordinary. Not ugly, just plain. In accordance with the astrological omens, Virgo, I urge you to do what Russell Brand did: expose the reality that lies beneath and behind the glamorous illusion, either in yourself or any- where else you fi nd a need. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): While I was growing up, I was taught to regard my analytical mind as a supreme tool for understanding reality. I’ve never stopped believing that. However, I eventually realized I had to add the following corollaries if I wanted to thrive: 1. My imagination and intuition are as essential to my success as my analytical mind; 2. I need to regularly express my playful, creative urges, and that requires me to sometimes transcend my analytical mind; 3. to maintain my emotional well-being, I have to work with my dreams, which occur in a realm where the analytical mind is not lord and king. Does any of this ring true for you, Libra? Now is an excellent time to cultivate other modes of intelligence besides your analytical mind. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): If you’re planning on spending any time hibernating during the next few months, this would be an excel- lent time to do it. Your reaction time is slowing down, which is a very healthy thing. Meanwhile, your allergy to civilization is acting up, your head is too full of thoughts you don’t need, and your heart craves a break from the subtle sorrows and trivial tussles of daily life. So go fi nd some sweet silence to hide inside, Scorpio. Treat yourself to a slow-motion glide through the eternal point of view. and interesting to attend to your own little needs as you normally do to understanding the mysteries of the cosmos. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): All the most credible studies say that the crime rate is steadily decreasing, and yet three out of every four people believe it’s rising. What conclusions can we draw from this curious discrepancy? Here’s one: The majority of the population is predisposed towards pessimism. In my astrological opinion, Capricorn, you can’t afford to be victimized by this mass psychosis. If you are, it will interfere with and probably even stunt the good fortune headed your way. I’m not asking you to be absurdly optimistic. Just try to root out any tendencies you might have to be absurdly gloomy. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In the early 20th century, many women at the beach covered most of their bodies with swimsuits made of wool. If they went in the water, they’d emerge about 20 pounds heavier. Swimming was a challenge. Your current psychic state has resemblances to what you’d feel like if you were wearing drenched woolen underwear and a drenched woolen clown suit and a drenched woolen robe. My advice? Take it off; take it all off. The astrological omens are clear: Whatever your reasons were for being in this get-up in the fi rst place are no longer valid. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): In comedian Sarah Silverman’s memoir, The Bedwetter: Stories of Courage, Redemption, and Pee, she confesses that she was still wetting her bed at age 19. Depression was a constant companion throughout adolescence, and she took a lot of Xanax. Yet somehow she grew into such a formidable adult that she was able to corral God himself to write the afterword for her book. How did she manage that? “This is so trite,” she told Publishers Weekly, “but ... sex.” I predict that a comparable reversal of fortune is ahead for you, Pisces. Some part of your past will be redeemed, quite possibly with the sexy help of a divine ally. HOMEWORK: Look in the mirror and tell yourself an edgy but fun truth you’ve never spoken. If you care to share, write Truth- rooster@gmail.com. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Dear Rob: All my life I’ve been passionate about the big picture — learning how the universe works, meditating on why things are the way they are, and probing the invis- ible forces working behind the scenes. Too often, though, I’m so enam- ored of these expansive concepts that I neglect to pay enough humble attention to myself. It’s embarrassing. Loving the infi nite, I scrimp on taking care of the fi nite. Any advice? — Larger Than Life Sagittarian. Dear Larger: You’re in luck! Members of the Sagittarian tribe have entered a phase when they can make up for their previous neglect of life-nourishing details.
