Hi everyone!

I just thought I'd spend my first post on here telling you all about my Friday! I know, it was two days ago, but I'm still fuming.

Basically, I'm never leaving the house again until I've got a horoscope reading! I always make it a point to read my daily horoscope but Friday I was in a rush. It was such a rush that I got a speeding ticket on the freeway. Then at work I got in trouble with my boss (long story). That evening on the phone with my mother she started yelling at me for forgetting her birthday. And to top it all off my landlord bangs on my door and tells me he wants next month's rent IN ADVANCE! Bad day. Then I checked Friday's horoscope at night, too late, and there it was: Beware conflicts with authority figures. I don't care how late I'm running, I'm never leaving the house again until I've read and reflected on the day's horoscope!

That's my story. Hopefully my misery was at least mildly entertaining. Nice to meet ya!

Becky

Hey, you may think it's "bullbutter" but a lot of people take it seriously and even if you don't like it it doesn't hurt anyone. I check it daily too and if I'm in a hurry I can always get it texted to me (text 4info and enter your sign in the message body and they'll shoot you a horoscope like 2 seconds later). Anyway, you're right about slowing down but if you're slowing down to sit and contemplate your horoscope then that's as good a slowdown as any.

Daily horoscopes really are a waste of time. I'm sorry but it's true. That's the power of suggestion at work in the worst way. A real horoscope doesn't begin with your sun sign.

Purrrfectly accurate. If you live by that daily newspaper horoscope, you really don't know much about astrology, at all. Dive into the complexity of astrology...or have someone do it for you, it's more amazing than you can imagine.

Here's my HORROR-scope...

'Pearls before Swine'

Goat: I hear you're writing horoscopes for the paper.

Rat: Yeah..Here's GEMINI: "If you think the problems of your sad little life can be solved by looking to the stars, you might as well jump off a cliff".

Goat: Whoa Whoa Whoa!!...that's just an insult. As an astrologist, you'ra supposed to make PREDICTIONS.

Rat😢writing).."Dispite your frantic arm-flapping...you will not fly"
