It suffers bone-deep from a lack of changes, good or bad or in between. Why has my karma been deprived of all motion? Why must I go on frozen in such eerie peace and quiet? I seek your help. Can you cast a spell for me so that I will be happily disrupted and agitated? Will you predict my sorry state of stillness to be ended soon? — Arvind Agnimuka, Taurus from Darjeeling. Dear Arvind: Funny you should ask. According to my analysis, members of the Taurus tribe are about to be roused out of their plodding rhythm by a bolt of cosmic mojo. Get ready to rumble — and I mean that in the best sense of the word. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): I found this unusual classifi ed ad in a small California newspaper. “Wanted: Someone to travel backwards in time with me. This is not a joke. You must be unafraid to see the person you used to be, and you’ve got to keep a wide-open mind about the past — I mean more wide-open than you have ever been able to. I have made this trip twice before, and I don’t expect any danger, but there may be a bit of a mess. Please bring your own ‘cleaning imple- ments,’ if you know what I mean.” As crazy as it sounds, Gemini, I’m thinking you’d be the right person for this gig. The astrological omens suggest you’ll be doing something similar to it anyway. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Of your fi ve senses, which is the most underdeveloped? If you’re a typical Westerner, it’s your sense of smell. You just don’t use it with the same level of acuity and interest you have when you’re seeing, hearing, tasting and touching. You may speak excitedly about an image you saw or song you heard or food you ate or massage you experienced — what they were like, how they made you feel — but you rarely do that with odors. You easily tolerate an ugly building or loud traffi c noise or mediocre food or itchy fabric, and yet you feel a deep aversion to an unappealing smell. Having said that, I want you to know it’s an excellent time to upgrade your olfac- tory involvement with the world. You’d benefi t greatly from the emo- tional enrichment that would come from cultivating a more conscious relationship with aromas. (July 23-Aug. 22): “Enlightenment is simply this,” said the Zen master. “When I walk, I walk. When I eat, I eat. When I sleep, I sleep.” If that’s true, Leo, you now have an excellent chance to achieve at 34 AUGUST 25, 2011 EUGENE WEEKLY I enjoy being around friends, being active and outdoors, whether riding a bike, running or even hiking and go to as many U of O sporting events as I can. cribb_nutt, 56, #101191 6’2, Blond, blue eyes, Germanic, Irish, British and Spanish decent, taking the term off to find work (Hahaha!... it’ll be a while).

TWEAKERS WHO TOOK MY BIKE. YOU WERE DEFEATED BY THE CRUSADING JOURNALIST AND PHOTOG WHO GOT MY RIDE BACK. THANKS FOR THE FEATHERS. BY ROB BREZSNY (March 21-April 19): I predict that in the coming weeks, you will be able to extract an unexpected perk or benefi t from one of your less glamorous responsibilities. I also predict that you will decide not to ram headfi rst into an obstacle and try to batter it until it crumbles. Instead, you’ll dream up a roundabout approach that will turn out to be more effective at eliminating the obstacle. Finally, I predict that these departures from habit will show you precious secrets about how to escape more of your own negative conditioning in the future. LEO GRUNGE MUFFIN. SOMETHING NEW VINTAGE SIMPLICITY I’m back in town for the sumer and I’m looking for a girl to spend some time with. I love biking, singing, climbing trees, and making a fool of myself.

Tell me you’re single, please! When: Thursday, August 18, 2011. Where: W 11th Fred Meyer Deli. You: Man. Me: Woman. #902203 least temporary enlightenment. The universe is virtually conspiring to maneuver you into situations where you can be utterly united with whatever you are doing in the present moment. You’ll be less tempted than usual to let your mind wander away from the experience at hand, but will instead relish the opportunity to commit yourself completely to the scene that’s right in front of you. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): In August 2009, 120 scientists and their helpers staged a BioBlitz in Yellowstone National Park. Their goal was to fi nd as many new species as they could in one day. To their surprise and delight, they located more than 1,200, including beetles, worms, lichens, and fungi that had never before been identifi ed. An equally fertile phase of discovery could very well be imminent for you, Virgo. All you have to do is make that your intention, then become super extra double-wildly receptive. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “Two dangers threaten the universe: order and disorder,” said poet Paul Valery. I think that’s especially true for you right now, although the “danger” in question is psychological in nature, not physical, and it’s a relatively manageable hazard that you shouldn’t stay up all night worrying about. Still, the looming chal- lenge to your poise is something that requires you to activate your deeper intelligence. You really do need to fi gure out how to weave a middle way between the extremes of seeking too much order and allowing too much disorder. What would Goldilocks do? SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Readers of Reddit.com were asked to describe their lives in just six words. It would be a good time for you to try this exercise. You’ve reached a juncture in your unfolding destiny when you could benefi t from a review that pithily sums up where you’ve been up until now, and where you’ve got to go next. To inspire your work, here are some of the most interesting from Reddit: 1. Early opportunities wasted, now attempting redemption. 2. Searching tirelessly for that one thing. 3. Living my dream requires modify- ing dream. 4. Must not turn into my mom. 5. Insane ambition meets debilitating self-doubt. 6. Do you want to have sex? 7. Slowly getting the hang of it. 8. These pretzels are making me thirsty. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): In his older years, after stead- fastly cultivating his vices with the care of a connoisseur, the agnostic actor W. C. Fields was caught reading the Bible by an old friend. Ques- tioned at this departure from his usual behavior, Fields said he was “looking for loopholes.” I suspect a comparable shift may be in the offi ng for you, Capricorn. In your case, you may be drawn to a source you’ve perpetually ignored or dismissed, or suddenly interested in a subject you’ve long considered to be irrelevant. I say, good for you. It’s an excellent time to practice opening your mind in any number of ways. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): I watched a Youtube video that showed eight people competing in a weird marathon. They ran two miles, ate 12 doughnuts, then ran another two miles. I hope you don’t try anything remotely similar to that, Aquarius. If you’re in the mood for outlandish feats and exotic adventures (which I suspect you might be), I suggest you try something more life-enhancing, like making love for an hour, eating an organic gourmet feast, then making love for another hour. It’s a good time for you to be wild, maybe even extreme, about getting the healing you need. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): In the out-of-print book In Portugal, A.F.G. Bell defi nes the Portuguese word saudade as follows: “a vague and constant desire for something that does not and probably cannot exist, for something other than the present, a turning towards the past or towards the future; not an active discontent or poignant sadness, but an indolent dreaming wistfulness.” In my astrological opinion, Pisces, it is imperative that you banish as much saudade from your system as you can. If you want, you can bring it back again later, but for now, you need to clarify and refi ne your desires for things that are actually possible. And that requires you to purge the delusional ones. HOMEWORK : What’s the part of you that you trust the least? Think up a test whereby that part of you will be challenged to express maximum integrity. Testify at Freewillastrology.com. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Go where the drama is, Sagit- tarius, but not where the melodrama is. Place yourself in the path of the most interesting power, but don’t get distracted by displays of power that are dehumanizing or narcissistic. You are in a phase of your astrological cycle when you have a mandate to intensify your ex- citement with life and increase your ability to be deeply engaged with what attracts you. I urge you to be as brave as you once were when you conquered a big fear and to be as curious as you were when you discovered a big secret about who you are. For extra credit, be highly demonstrative in your expression of what you care about.
