Your permanent horoscope

WORKS ON ANY DAY IN ANY YEAR

23rd February 2010

Lucky, lucky, lucky! IF YOU WERE BORN ON THIS DATE, you are simply the luckiest person on the face of the Earth.

At no other time in history has there been a more auspicious opportunity for a lifetime peace of mind full of sidesplitting laughter and tears of joy from the love of your friends and family that pours over you.

Never before have the stars aligned in such a way so that you can clearly see what is happening to you, and how your life has limits to both what can be enjoyed and what can be endured.

But through gratitude, the sheer magnitude of beauty and grace that adorns each of our lives clearly shows us that the gifts we have been given far outweigh the contributions we have made to this awesome garden we call life.

But for your grace, dear power of the sky, we are nothing. For the chance to see your works and savor them forever we give thanks, in every action we take.

ARIES (3/21-4/19): Your life is simple and pure. Things make sense. The path is straight ahead. You work hard and sleep well.

TAURUS (4/20-5/20): Empire builder. Meticulous. Lonely. Misunderstood. Difficulty learning how not to search for something.

GEMINI (5/21-6/20): It is better to be twins. People don’t understand, but that’s their problem. If only we could see ourselves.

CANCER (6/21-7/22): Worrying can make it work, but it takes a lot out of you. But hell, I drive a nice car, and the bills are all paid.

LEO (7/23-8/22): Lost in the dazzling reflection of your own jewels, no one else can see you, but that really doesn’t matter to you, does it? You get sick a lot because of this — Leo disease.

VIRGO (8/23-9/22): The sign most likely to produce a loving and sensible mother. All that good stuff that comes with that is yours to bestow upon the world, and the world loves you for it.

LIBRA (9/23-10/22): Of all the signs, the easiest to make friends with. Pleasing to everyone. Love a Libra and they shine like no one else.

SCORPIO (10/23-11/21): Don’t blow your nose in public, unless it’s important. Try to understand that your amplitude rattles the speakers of most record players.

SAGITTARIUS (11/22-12/21): Nice job building the ship. It floats. It will save us all. Well, most of us, if we can just understand the directions.

CAPRICORN (12/22-1/19): It all fits together nicely when you do the work, and it’s not that hard to do if you put your mind to it.

AQUARIUS (1/20-2/18): Oooooh, we’re gonna have a party and they’ll be talking it about for years. Where DID I park my Corvette?

PISCES (2/19-3/20): I think I’ll go fishing for unicorns underneath a blanket of starry dreams.

THOSE OF YOU BORN ON THIS DATE ARE, first and foremost, extraordinarily beautiful, and possessed of a countenance that inspires trust and confidence in others.

You are straight ahead in all affairs, having been taught by your elders that respect for others is the secret to getting it yourself.

As for the world around you, you have been taught to not see certain things, and after awhile, you finally realize that it is long past time to tear down the masks concealing the insanities that plague us in our search for happiness and peace of mind.

And with genuine love in your heart for others, you strike out to help to create a peaceful and just world for everyone, with this maxim.

“There is nothing that is preventing us from solving every problem that we have and making the world a safer place for our children.”
 — Ernest Becker, The Denial of Death, 1974

Use this horoscope every day, and we’re all gonna be OK.

OK, there IS something preventing us, but we’re working on that.
