I love Free Will Astrology!

I've talked about that briefly here, but I mean it. As I think I said, if nothing else, it always gives something to think about. The actual horoscope for this week was just ok, but it was a good reminder to not take things too seriously. What I found more amusing was the "spiritual dating ads" that I stumbled upon. Before I post them here, let me preface this by saying that I have been in a kind of hippy, love mood lately. I actually prefer being in those kinds of moods because they make me feel better than stressed and negative moods (which seems pretty obvious, doesn't it?). Some day, I think it's a real possibility that I'll end up carrying crystals and hugging strangers...some day sooner than we might think. In related news, I think that eventually, I really will have to work for women's rights. I was reading about mercy killings, and I just can't handle it. But I digress. Here are my two favorite ads from Free Will Astrology, the ones that speak to me the most right now:

MY EYES REMIND YOU WHERE YOU CAME FROM
Uncork me, angel. Unfurl me. Release me and restore me and unleash me. Not because I can't do it myself. Not because I'm just another narcissism-addict jonesing for a quick fix. On the contrary. I'm the most self-­sufficient self-starter I've ever met. It's from my position of strength that I aspire to whip up spectacular synergies in tandem with your holy rolling reverberations. So keep in mind that I'm here to uncork you and unfurl you and release you and restore you and unleash you, too. That's the art of the game that stretches out before us in all directions. That's the beauty of the gritty reality that's disguised as a glittery fantasy. As you bless my risks and massage my unconsciousness and save my soul, I'll always vice your versa. P.S. My last fortune cookie said, "You need nothing and want everything."

POLYAMOROUS MONOGAMY
You might say I'm catagoraphobic. I hate getting stuffed into pigeonholes. I run the other way when people try to tell me who I am. So don't try to figure me out. Just enjoy me. Or maybe I should say just enjoy us. There are so many different facets to my personality that monogamy with me will feel like a promiscuous feast to you. I'm a socialist libertarian and a pacifist warrior. I'm an atheistic lover of many gods, a streetwise thaumaturge with stuffed animals on my Qabalistic altar, and a humble megalomaniac who loves to perform missions of mercy. Always both and yet neither. And what about you? Just to let you know, I love architects who moonlight as smugglers of illegal flowers. I respect vegetarians who sneak pork chops now and then. I admire ex-druggies who get sober with the same fanaticism they once devoted to their addictions. Get the picture? My spirit thrives when nothing and no one are exactly what they seem. Here's the key to our happiness: As long as we give up our control fantasies, we'll always get what we want.

In more routine news, I had a good day today. I woke up to sunshine, went to class (which was boring but not painful), ate lunch, tutored English, had tea with a friend, got snowed on, went to a meeting for my volunteer work stuff, and did some homework. That's the kind of day I like! I have to say I am a little tired of the cold at this point, but I am super excited that the days are getting longer. We have 10 hours between sunrise and sunset as of tomorrow (visible light time is a little longer), which is worlds better than the 8 hours and 20 minutes we had in December. It makes a difference, it really does. We'll be over 10 1/2 hours by the time Kristin gets here in 12 days...that is a whole other incredibly exciting story that I'll save for tomorrow.

  1. I should clarify and say that I've been in a hippy, love mood for only the last couple days. Before that, I was in a homesick, panicked mood. It goes back and forth and can change at any given moment.
