  I'm spending the week more or less lounging around my place on vacation, & today's my birthday, so I thought I'd ask all you hopeless apostate types <EG>, what's your take on astrology? For years I thought this was a ridiculous practice, even after leaving the dubs. But after reading a book that breaks down which planet was where on which day, and how each "affects" me, I don't feel I can blow it all off as coincidence or as one-size-fits-all doubletalk. Anyone else have this experience? Comments? Observations? Insults? Bueller?

  Happy Birthday fellow cajun!!!!!!!!!!!

  As for astrology I have really never had a reading done, except what I read in te newspapers.

  But if you want to talk Tarot, I had a reading done the other day by a woman who does not know me and was so close to the mark, it gave me goose bumps!! Thanks Amanda!!!!

  Week of June 13, 2002

  Normally I encourage you to pursue your heart's desire with relentless ingenuity. Make it your top priority, I counsel. Let no lesser wishes distract you. Be aggressively persistent. In response to current astrological currents, however, I suggest a temporary shift in strategy. For the next few weeks, Gemini, take your cue from the approach described by Clarissa Pinkola Estes in her book Women Who Run With the Wolves. "All that you are seeking is also seeking you," she writes. "If you sit still, it will find you. It has been waiting for you a long time. Once it is here, don't move away. Rest. See what happens next."

  *** i don' t take daily horoscopes seriously. but i do love to read linda goodman. she's amazing. her profiles of the attributes of each sign are incredibly accurate. accept no substitute.

  signed,

  p.s. happy birthday.

  Hi and Happy Birthday!!! I have been studying astrology for several years now and the amazing similarities of people born under the same sign are just too much for there not to be credability to astrology. Linda Goodman was an outstanding astrologer and the first to interest me in astrolgy.Jonathan Cainer is also very good. I also am a gemini..

  Cass -- AWWWWWWW thanks!!!!!!

  <<<<<Is Amanda

  Wanna birthday tarot reading? I will be home tonight, I will give you a Bday tarot reading if you want but you gotta pay the long distance. E-mail me for my phone number. Not that this is an open invitation for everybody else. Please do not ask for one unless I offer or I would never have a personal life. LMFAO!

  Anyhow, you are a Gemini, but that is only part of you. I can do astrology charts but I am swamped with way too many as it is from peole on the baord and not enough time to do them in... I am too busy at work right now to post much on Gemini Sun Sign, I will try to put a bit more down tomorrow.

  Hugs,

  Amanda

  Edited because I spell like I am 3 years old -- time to go home

  thanx Cassiline, Incense & MissyMoe =) no, I don't take newspaper horoscopes at their word, either. I do do Tarot card readings, though; had some amazing experiences doing that for total strangers. Never really connected too much w/ my astrological profile, though, til I found out I'm Gemini w/ Scorpio rising... the majority of Gemini fits for me, but not the hyper-communication parts so much.

  I&P, I will check out Linda Goodman... what you quoted seems like good advice about now.
