Should I go back to bed or not?

I’m not really sure. Charli and Jordan are talking about their horoscopes from freewillastrology.com so, naturally, I had to run over and find mine.

I’ve read it several times now and I still have no idea what my stars are trying to tell me, but I have a feeling I might want to wear my helmet.

Virgo for the week of April 24

The billboard I saw said, “Develop a recreational habit that won’t show up in your urine.” I didn’t catch what product it was advertising, but there was an image of a hang-glider, so I figure it was promoting outdoor sports as a preferable alternative to taking drugs. The billboard message happens to be excellent advice for you, Virgo. In the coming weeks, you’ll be wise to seek liberating adventure and explore new modes of natural fun. Doing so will steer you away from a path that could lead to messy adventure and decadent fun.

Okay, let’s see.

1. This is the first time that I can recall my horoscope containing a mention of my urine. That’s awesome.

2. My fate is written not in the stars, but on roadside advertising. Maybe if I’d paid more attention during our roadtrip to Florida, I’d know which book to focus on right now.

3. So I need liberating—but not messy—adventure and natural—but not decadent—fun. I’d say that’s a cosmic sign I should go ride my ATV, but it’s mud season so 1) it would be messy and 2) the fine would not be liberating.

    Mine said essentially “your big fat mouth is going to get you in trouble if you don’t shut up.” And astrology.com, which always gives me happy fluffy bunny horoscopes, said pretty much the same thing, so I Know It Must Be True.

    See I took that to mean you should write :write: your next DG book because that would give you liberating adventure and natural fun without being messy. Although it would be decadent fun for the characters, which in turn is good fun for me! :groucho:

    OMG – I just went and read mine. I may have to do a post on this as well. It says something about being raised by badgers (really, how did they know?) and delusions of grandeur. :crazy: Go read Capricorn for this week. It’s hilarious.

    “Many a man fails to become a thinker for the sole reason that his memory is too good,” wrote Friedrich Nietzsche. I suggest you contemplate that riddle, Cancerian. Is your ability to stir up new perspectives sometimes hindered by the deep feelings you have about your history? Is it possible that past experiences you’ve grown to treasure tend to diminish your motivation to reinvent yourself periodically? If so, it’s a perfect time to break free of the old days and old ways. Induce a little forgetfulness so that you’re more available for the future.

    Er… encouraging me to forget AND reinvent myself? Hmmm. I’ll admit to a little looking back for inspiration instead of looking forward, but… strange. what does it mean?

    Mine is the same as Mel’s. Kinda scary if I really think about it. :bang: :baby: Me thinks it’s damn close to being spot on. Yours too, with the exception of the whole urine thing.

    Long time no comment, but I had some time and I’m trying to blog hop more.

    That is an awesome horoscope link. Mine was really interesting.
