Free Will Astrology
a rancid, bat-infested cave at the base of the smoldering Sangay
Volcano, I was raised by the half-bear demon princess Arcastia. At the
age of 4 my training as a ninja shaman began when I was left naked
and alone next to a stream of burning lava with only two safety pins, a
package of dental fl oss, and a plastic bag full of Cheerios. My mission:
to fi nd my way to my spiritual home.” Now, Aries, I’d like you to com-
pose your own version of this declaration: a playful, over-the-top myth
about your origins that gives you a greater appreciation for the heroic
journey you’ve been on all these years.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Our ancestors owned slaves and
denied education to girls. What were they thinking? Time magazine
asked renowned historian David McCullough if there was anything
we do today that our descendants will regard as equally insane and
inexcusable. His reply: “How we could have spent so much time watch-
ing TV.” I’ll ask you, Taurus, to apply this same exercise on a personal
level. Think of some things you did when you were younger that now
seem incomprehensible or ignorant. Then explore the possibility that
you will look back with incredulity at some weird habit or tweaked
form of self-indulgence you’re pursuing today. (P.S. It’s an excellent
time to phase out that habit or self-indulgence.)
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): “I can’t tell if I’m dealing well with life
these days or if I just don’t give a shit any more.” I stumbled upon
that comment at someecards.com, and I decided to pass it along for
your consideration. You may be pondering the same riddle: feeling
suspicious about why you seem more relaxed and tolerant than usual
in the face of plain old everyday chaos. I’m here to tell you my opinion,
which is that your recent equanimity is not rooted in jaded numbness.
Rather, it’s the result of some hard work you did on yourself during the
last six months. Congrats and enjoy!
CANCER (June 21-July 22): What excites you, Cancerian? What
mobilizes your self-discipline and inspires you to see the big picture? I
encourage you to identify those sources of high-octane fuel, and then
take extraordinary measures to make them a strong presence in your
life. There has rarely been a better time than now for you to do this. It
could create effects that will last for years. (P.S. Here’s a further nudge
from Ralph Waldo Emerson: “Every great and commanding movement
in the annals of the world is the triumph of enthusiasm. Nothing great
was ever achieved without it.”)
(July 23-Aug. 22): While browsing in a bookstore, I came across
a book and deck of cards that were collectively called Tarot Secrets.
The subtitle of the kit was “A Fast and Easy Way to Learn a Powerful

Ancient Art.” I snorted derisively to read that claim, since I myself
have studied Tarot intensively for years and am nowhere near mas-
tery. Later, though, when I was back home meditating on your horo-
scope, I softened my attitude a bit. The astrological omens do indeed
suggest that in the upcoming weeks and months, you just might be
able to learn a rather substantial skill in a relatively short time.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Writing in The New Yorker, Joanna
Ravenna paraphrased German philosopher Nietzsche: “The best way
to enrage people is to force them to change their mind about you.”
I’d like to see you mutate this theory in the coming weeks, Virgo. If
possible, see if you can amuse and entertain people, not enrage them,
by compelling them to change their minds about you. I realize that’s
a tricky proposition, but given the current astrological omens, I have
faith that you can pull it off.
LIBRA
(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): In 1892, when Wrigley was just starting
out as a company, its main product was baking powder. Free chewing
gum was included in each package as a promotional gimmick. But
soon the freebie became so popular that Wrigley rearranged its entire
business. Now it’s a multi-billion-dollar company that sells gum in 140
different countries — and no baking powder. Maybe there’s something
like that on the verge of happening in your own life, Libra: What
seemed like the main event could turn out to be secondary, or what
seemed incidental might become a centerpiece. Is there something
you are overvaluing at the cost of something you are undervaluing?
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Pe ople in intimate relationships are
hypersensitive to negative comments from their partners. Psycholo-
gists say it takes fi ve compliments to outweigh the effects of a single
dash of derogatory criticism. I’m sure the ratio is similar even for
relationships that aren’t as close as lovers and spouses. With this in
mind, I urge you to be extra careful not to dispense barbs. They would
be especially damaging during this phase of your astrological cycle
-- both to you and to those at whom you direct them. Instead, Scorpio,
why not dole out an abundance of compliments? They will build up a
reservoir of goodwill you’ll be able to draw on for a long time.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Researchers report that the
typical man falls in love 5.4 times over the course of his life, while
the average woman basks in the glow of this great mystery on 4.6
occasions. I suspect you may be close to having a .4 or .6 type of
experience, Sagittarius: sort of like infatuation, but without the crazed
mania. That could actually be a good thing. The challenging spiritual
project that relationship offers may be most viable when the two
people involved are not electrifyingly interwoven with every last one
of their karmic threads. Maybe we have more slack in our quest for
intimacy if we love but are not obsessed.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): “I couldn’t wait for success,” said
rich and famous comedian Jonathan Winters, “so I went ahead with-
out it.” I love that approach, and I suggest you try it out. Is there any
area of your life that is held captive by an image of perfection? Con-
sider the possibility that shiny concepts of victory and progress might
be distracting you from doing the work that will bring you meaning
and fulfi llment. If you’re too busy dreaming of someday attaining the
ideal mate, weight, job, pleasure, and community, you may miss out on
the imperfect but amazing opportunities that are available right now.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): On Reddit.com, Kaushalp88 asked
the question, “What is the most badass thing that you have ever done,
but that other people weren’t impressed by?” Here’s his own story: “I
was at an ice cream shop. At the exit, there was a small raised step I
didn’t see. I tripped over it with my ice cream cone in my right hand.
The ice cream ball sprung out of the cone. I instinctively lurched my
left hand forward and grabbed it, but at the same time I was already
falling toward the pavement. I tucked my head into my chest and
made a perfect somersault, rising to my feet and plopping the ice
cream back in the cone.” I suspect you will soon have comparable
experiences, Aquarius — unusual triumphs and unexpected accom-
plishments. But you may have to be content with provoking awe in no
one else beside yourself.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “Worry often gives a small thing a big
shadow.” So says a Swedish proverb. Can we talk about this, please,
Pisces? Of course there are real hazards and diffi culties in life, and
they deserve your ingenious problem-solving. But why devote any
of your precious energy to becoming embroiled in merely hyped-up
hazards and hypothetical diffi culties? Based on my analysis of the
astrological omens, now is a propitious time to cut shadows down to
their proper size. It’s also a perfect moment to liberate yourself from
needless anxiety. I think you’ll be amazed at how much more accurate
your perceptions will be as a result.
