ARIES (March 21-April 19): If you chose me as your relationship guide, I’d counsel you and your closest ally
to be generous with each other; to look for the best in each other and praise each other’s beauty and strength.
If you asked me to help foster your collaborative zeal, I’d encourage you to build a shrine in honor of your bond
— an altar that would invoke the blessings of deities, nature spirits and the ancestors. If you hired me to advise
you on how to keep the fires burning and the juices flowing between you two, I’d urge you to never compare your
relationship to any other, but rather celebrate the fact that it’s unlike any other in the history of the planet.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): The Milky Way Galaxy contains more than 100 billion stars. If they were shared
equally, every person on Earth could have dominion over at least 14. I mention this because you’re in a phase
when it makes sense for you to claim your 14. Yes, I’m being playful, but I’m also quite serious. According to my
analysis of the upcoming weeks, you will benefit from envisaging big, imaginative dreams about the riches that
could be available to you in the future. How much money do you want? How much love can you express? How
thoroughly at home in the world could you feel? How many warm rains would you like to dance beneath? How
much creativity do you need to keep reinventing your life? Be extravagant as you fantasize.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): “When I grow up, I’m not sure what I want to be.” Have you ever heard that thought
bouncing around your mind, Gemini? Or how about this one: “Since I can’t decide what I want to be, I’ll just be
everything.” If you have been tempted to swear allegiance to either of those perspectives, I suggest it’s time
to update your relationship with them. A certain amount of ambivalence about commitment and receptivity to
myriad possibilities will always be appropriate for you. But if you hope to fully claim your birthright, if you long
to ripen into your authentic self, you’ll have to become ever-more definitive and specific about what you want to
be and do.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): As a Cancerian myself, I’ve had days when I’ve stayed in bed from morning to
nightfall, confessing my fears to my imaginary friends and eating an entire cheesecake. As an astrologer, I’ve
noticed that these blue patches seem more likely to occur during the weeks before my birthday each year. If
you go through a similar blip any time soon, here’s what I recommend: Don’t feel guilty about it. Don’t resist it.
Instead, embrace it fully. If you feel lazy and depressed, get REALLY lazy and depressed. Literally hide under the
covers with your headphones on and feel sorry for yourself for as many hours as it takes to exhaust the gloom
and emerge renewed.

Brails June 4th
You smiled really big at me on your way out.
I was sitting near the door with a couple of
friends. You are beautiful & I am shy and
did not follow you out to say hi but I should
have!
I’M THANKFUL FOR

DONATIONS FOR WHITE BIRD
You parked next to me at the Sequential gas
station. I was in a white truck. We smiled at
each other but I didn’t pursue any further.
Wish I did.

Thank you to those who have given!
LADY IN RED -
the locoemotive moments that bridge the
chasm and shush the spasms.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): In the early days of the Internet, “sticky” was a term applied to websites that were good
at drawing readers back again and again. To possess this quality, a content provider had to have a knack for
offering text and images that web surfers felt an instinctive yearning to bond with. I’m reanimating this term so I
can use it to describe you. Even if you don’t have a website, you now have a soulful adhesiveness that arouses
people’s urge to merge. Be discerning how you use this stuff. You may be stickier than you realize!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Ancient Mayans used chili and magnolia and vanilla to prepare exotic chocolate
drinks from cacao beans. The beverage was sacred and prestigious to them. It was a centerpiece of cultural
identity and an accessory in religious rituals. In some locales, people were rewarded for producing delectable
chocolate with just the right kind and amount of froth. I suspect, Virgo, that you will soon be asked to do the
equivalent of demonstrating your personal power by whipping up the best possible chocolate froth. And accord-
ing to my reading of the astrological omens, the chances are good you’ll succeed.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Do you have your visa for the wild side? Have you packed your bag of tricks? I hope
you’ll bring gifts to dispense, just in case you’ll need to procure favors in the outlying areas where the rules are
a bit loose. It might also be a good idea to take along a skeleton key and a snake-bite kit. You won’t necessarily
need them. But I suspect you’ll be offered magic cookies and secret shortcuts and it would be a shame to have
to turn them down simply because you’re unprepared for the unexpected.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You’re like a prince or princess who has been turned into a frog by the spell of a
fairy tale villain. This situation has gone on for a while. In the early going, you retained a vivid awareness that you
had been transformed. But the memory of your origins has faded and you’re no longer working so diligently to
find a way to change back into your royal form. Frankly, I’m concerned. This horoscope is meant to remind you of
your mission. Don’t give up! Don’t lose hope! And take extra good care of your frog-self, please.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): People might have ideas about you that are at odds with how you under-
stand yourself. For example, someone might imagine that you have been talking trash about them — even
though you haven’t been. Someone else may describe a memory they have about you and you know it’s a
distorted version of what actually happened. Don’t be surprised if you hear even more outlandish tales, too,
like how you’re stalking Taylor Swift or conspiring with the One World Government to force all citizens to eat kale
every day. I’m here to advise you to firmly reject all of these skewed projections. For the immediate future, it’s
crucial to stand up for your right to define yourself — to be the final authority on what’s true about you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): “God doesn’t play dice with the universe,” said Albert Einstein. In response,
another Nobel Prize-winning physicist, Niels Bohr, said to Einstein, “Stop giving instructions to God.” I urge you to
be more like Bohr than Einstein in the coming weeks, Capricorn. As much as possible, avoid giving instructions to
anyone, including God and resist the temptation to offer advice. In fact, I recommend that you abstain from pass-
ing judgment, demanding perfection and trying to compel the world to adapt itself to your definitions. Instead,
love and accept everything and everyone exactly as they are right now.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Lysistrata is a satire by ancient Greek playwright Aristophanes. It takes place
during the war between Athens and Sparta. The heroine convinces a contingent of women to withhold sexual
privileges from the soldiers until they stop fighting. “I will wear my most seductive dresses to inflame my
husband’s ardor,” says one. “But I will never yield to his desires. I won’t raise my legs towards the ceiling. I will
not take up the position of the Lioness on a Cheese Grater.” Regardless of your gender, Aquarius, your next
assignment is twofold: 1. Don’t be like the women in the play. Give your favors with discerning generosity. 2.
Experiment with colorful approaches to pleasure like the Lioness with a Cheese Grater, the Butterfly Riding the
Lizard, the Fox Romancing the River and any others you can dream up.
Every BODY
deserves expert,

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Take your seasick pills. The waves will sometimes be higher than your boat. Al-
though I don’t think you’ll capsize, the ride may be wobbly. And unless you have waterproof clothes, it’s probably
best to just get naked. You WILL get drenched. By the way, don’t even fantasize about heading back to shore
prematurely. You have good reasons to be sailing through the rough waters. There’s a special “fish” out there that
you need to catch. If you snag it, it will feed you for months — maybe longer.
HOMEWORK: Even if you don’t send it, write a letter to the person you admire most. Share it with me at Freewil-
