Me: Man. #902189 BY ROB BREZSNY ARIES (March 21-April 19): Time magazine asked Pulitzer Prize- winning historian David McCullough why he started writing a biography of Pablo Picasso but never ﬁ nished it. McCullough said it was because the famous artist turned out to be boring. He attracted a steady ﬂ ow of new lovers, and he made hundreds of paintings, but he didn’t actually live an interesting life. I’m urging you to be the anti-Picasso in the coming weeks, Aries. Put the emphasis on the quality of your adventures more than on what you produce. Regard your life as your most important work of art. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): “Let’s celebrate the ﬁ rst time you cried naked in someone else’s bed,” is a message on an e-card I found at Someecards.com. You might want to send that proposal to yourself, Taurus. It’s an excellent time to commemorate the rousing catharses of the past. You may ﬁ nd that revisiting the breakthrough epiphanies of yesteryear will help put you in the right frame of mind (and heart) to conjure up a fresh batch. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Why is it so hard for Westerners of the last two centuries to feel the intimate presence of the divine intel- ligences? Every other culture in the history of the world has had a more vital connection with the realm of spirit. According to poet Gary Snyder, California’s Yana Indians explained it this way: The gods have retreated to the volcanic recesses of Mount Lassen, passing the time playing gambling games with magic sticks. They’re simply waiting for such a time when human beings will “reform themselves and become ‘real people’ that spirits might want to associate with once again.” Here’s why I’m bringing this up, Gemini: I think that right now is a special time in your life when you have the power to become a “real person” with whom the spirits will want to have closer communion. CANCER (June 21-July 22): I strongly advise you against purchas- ing and reading what some observers have called “the saddest book in the universe.” It’s a recipe book by Sonia Allison called Microwave for One (bit.ly/SadBook). No matter how inclined you might be to opt for excessive self-sufﬁ ciency right now, no matter how peeved you are at the human race for being so clumsy and ignorant, I believe you must keep trying to reach out and touch those who are touchable, even if they’re barely so. You need what people have to offer you, even if it’s sloppy, wimpy, or kooky. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Science writer K.C. Cole asks this question: “How would you hold 100 tons of water in thin air with no visible means of support?” Here’s her answer: “Build a cloud.” What you have before you right now, Leo, is a comparable scenario. Your assignment is to materialize a phenomenon that from a certain viewpoint may appear to be laughably impossible. And yet, with the proper attitude on your part and nature’s help, the project at hand is eminently achievable. It 30 AUGUST 18, 2011 EUGENE WEEKLY PUMPKIN HAT MAN GRUNGE MUFFIN. 6’2, Blond, blue eyes, Germanic, Irish, British and Spanish decent, taking the term off to find work (Hahaha!... it’ll be a while). Moved out, made friends, living the life. g , NotCobain, 21, #106398 Author, Healer, Teacher Protector and Curator of Neolithic Healing tools. In college at 60, love to sing, see adventure and amaze- ment around every corner look- ing for dating and sensual com- panionship. redtailhawk, 60, g , #101349 ART MUSIC FOOD SWEET SOUL SEEKING True Companion. 44yrs, bit chub- by thoughtful open minded sweetheart looking for a nice guy. Looking to love in a big way, share the highs/lows, laugh and learn about life together. smiles321, 44, ☎, #106352 You were up to a little hinkypinky playing butt darts on the smurf turf. You deserve that bitch slap wave... and second place. Leave the rod at home next time. When: Sunday, August 14, 2011. Where: Deschutes river. You: Man. Me: Man. #902197 RE:BUMMED A SMOKE My situation has changed and I’d like to see you again. Forgot your name but if you remember mine:FaceBook. I remember what matters. That spark was a good fire starter. When: Tuesday, July 26, 2011. Where: The walk down- town. You: Man. Me: Woman. #902193 won’t necessarily be fast and easy, mind you — but you wouldn’t want it to be, because then it wouldn’t be able to teach you all the precious wisdom it has to impart. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Dear Astrology Guy: Thank you kindly for your assistance. One of your horoscopes gave me a kick in the butt that propelled me free of a trap I had stupidly agreed to stay stuck in. At the same time, I also have to tell you to go to hell, because no one, includ- ing me, likes hearing the awful, embarrassing truth. As much healing as your words helped bring me, they also stung my pride. Love and hate, Virgo. Dear Virgo: You’re welcome and I’m sorry. It’s good to hear you’re able to appreciate the gifts of paradox. Let’s hope that will keep you creatively humble as you slip into an expansive building phase when your ego may be understandably prone to a bit of inﬂ ation. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Newsweek reported a fact that few Westerners know about: Nigeria is accustomed to major oil spills. Every year since the 1960s, the Niger Delta has been slammed with a spill as extensive as the Exxon Valdez, which was the second biggest oil catastrophe in U.S. history. “Large purple slicks cover once fertile ﬁ elds,” said Newsweek, “and rivers are clogged with oil leaked decades ago.” My purpose in bringing this to your attention is not to depress you, Libra, but rather to inspire you. In the coming weeks, I hope you will make it your passion to uncover injustices you’ve been unaware of, including those close to home. I think you’ll be amazed at how much this buoys your spirits. P.S.: You’ll get extra credit if you actually take action to address the unfairness. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In the song “Fantasy World,” the lead singer of the band Pissed Jeans imagines himself in his happy place. “It’s Friday night and Saturday morning in my fantasy world / Sitting near piles of clothes and drinking a soda / with a slice of pizza in my fantasy world.” He’s not describing some unrealistic paradise where he can ﬂ y like an eagle and seduce anyone he wants and ﬁ nd gold bars under his pillow in the morning. Rather, he’s content with the simple, familiar pleasures. I urge you to follow his lead as you imagine and cre- ate your own fantasy world this week. Love what you’ve got. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): “Mommy, are scientists real?” the boy asked his mother. “Yes, son, they are,” she replied. “Do they make stuff that is dangerous?” continued the boy. “Sometimes they do,” said the mom. “Then I want to be one when I grow up,” concluded the boy. In the coming weeks, Capricorn, I see you as being like the boy. You’ll be in the mood to brainstorm about what you might like to evolve into, and your fantasies will tend to move in the direction of what’s most adventurous and exciting. I urge you to fully indulge in those ﬂ ights of fancy. It’s time to dream really big and really free. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “I got expelled from college for cheating during my metaphysics ﬁ nal,” joked Woody Allen. “I got caught looking into the soul of the guy next to me.” Even if you’re not taking a big test for a metaphysics class, Aquarius, I urge you to do a lot of what Allen claimed he did: Gaze into the souls of those around you. It’s an excellent time, astrologically speaking, for you to escape the enclosed container of your own inner world and survey the raw truths and deep feelings that other people hold dear. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “I have no doubt that in reality the future will be vastly more surprising than anything I can imagine,” said pioneering geneticist J.B.S. Haldane. I share that view, and I think it’s good to keep in mind whenever we’re tempted to rearrange our lives in accordance with the visions of those who predict the future, whether they be New Age prophets, indigenous elders, scientiﬁ c experts, or political pundits. Nobody knows much of anything about how it’s all go- ing to unfold! The future is not set in stone, but is totally up for grabs. The sooner you make that an everyday reminder, the more aggressive you’ll become about creating the life you want. Now is an excellent time to get the hang of it. HOMEWORK: What’s the best surprise you could give yourself right now? Testify at Freewillastrology.com. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): The highest unclimbed mountain in the world is Gangkhar Puensum, an almost 25,000-foot-tall beauty in Bhutan. It will remain free of human inﬂ uence indeﬁ nitely, as local authorities are keen on preventing the environmental degradation that has occurred on popular peaks like Mount Everest, where climbers have left lots of trash. What’s the equivalent in your sphere, Sagit- tarius? The most prominent unconquered prize? The Grail that still remains elusive? The virgin treasure your quest has not yet won? According to my analysis, you now have the potential to make tangible progress toward that goal. Unlike the case with Gangkhar Puensum, there are no rules or laws preventing you.
