Cruisin’ the Cosmos

Week of Aug 20 2009

LEO (JULY 23 – AUG. 22)

This weekend someone’ll invite you to do the spiritual equivalent of rock-climbin’. Of course they conveniently left out the fact you won’t be backed by ropes pitons or any kind of gear. It’s just gonna be you and your fear of fallin’. Don’t sweat it. Success is callin’ and you can answer by scalin’ the face without stallin’!

VIRGO (AUG. 23 – SEPT. 22)

Thinkin’ too much leads to trouble and when interpretin’ others’ actions it’ll double. That’s ’cause no matter the reality folks tend to see what they wanna see. Before doin’ or sayin’ somethin’ you can’t take back treat every situation with tact ’cause you may not actually have all the facts!

LIBRA (SEPT. 23 – OCT. 22)

Sometimes you get to wishin’ you had blind ambition and could trample over everyone else to get your share of wealth. You could burn bridges stab people in the back too and live 24/7 waitin’ for someone to attack you. Best of all you’ll get to wake up with cold sweats in the night all for the low price of not treatin’ people right!

SCORPIO (OCT. 23 – NOV. 21)

You’re well aware of the health-wealth relationship but as a Scorp you’re also concerned with stealth. If you find you’re having trouble with your physical fitness regimen it may be a lack of the latter. This week if your workouts aren’t working out try to exercise away from prying eyes!

SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22 – DEC. 21)

Sometimes life’s like a car. You start hearin’ funny noises but you ignore it until somethin’ doesn’t work. Then you take it into the shop where the mechanic gives you an estimate that makes your jaw drop. Heck for less than the price of the repairs you could buy one of the new models out there. Soon the best deal’ll appear outta thin air!

CAPRICORN (DEC. 22 – JAN. 19)

You’re gonna feel a bit like Dorothy this week when you find out the wonderful Wiz is just some chubby li’l chump playin’ with his levers and knobs. You ain’t Santa you ain’t got no elves and this is one of those jobs you have to do yourself so now’s the time to put foolin’ around away on the shelf!

AQUARIUS (JAN. 20 – FEB. 18)

Get the feelin’ that success is consistently just out of your grasp? Been chasin’ the carrot so long you’re startin’ to gasp? Looks like you need to change your technique if you wanna attain what you seek. This week to attain it if instead of reachin’ you jump. At least you’ll have it even if you land on your rump!

PISCES (FEB. 19 – MARCH 20)

Sometimes success goes to those who play dirtier than their foes. Sometimes it gets sent to the most intelligent. But if history’s taught us a lesson it usually goes to those for whom work’s an obsession. That’s why this week it ain’t about smart moves or tricks but rather how long your stick-to-it-iveness sticks!

ARIES (MARCH 21 – APRIL 19)

The fact that a weapon of such force as the battering ram is actually named after you is a pretty big clue as to what you need to do when you wanna go somewhere but somethin’s blockin’ you. Of course a brick wall’s a lot harder than a wood door but that doesn’t mean you can’t bust it — just that your head’ll be sore!

TAURUS (APRIL 20 – MAY 20)

After standin’ in line to get into the swingin’est club in the sky Petey the doorman tells you that although there ain’t no cover charge there’s a mandatory coat check. In other words if you wanna come in you ain’t takin’ anything with you. To get to heaven on Earth it’s like that too!

GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUNE 20)

Playin’ life is kinda like playin’ the markets. The biggest returns may be in the riskiest investments but it’s stupid to put all your eggs in one basket. Especially in a market as volatile as this one where you’ll go broke if you’re too slow to respond. Now’s the time to take stock and convert your currency into more reliable long-term bonds!

CANCER (JUNE 21 – JULY 22)

This week you have an excuse for not gettin’ what you want. It ain’t ’cause The Man’s keepin’ you down and it ain’t bad karma followin’ you around. It ain’t an unfortunate alignment of orbs and you ain’t just unlucky. Right now the only thing that’s standin’ in your way see is what’s called bein’ lazy!
