In the Stars
I get Rob Brezny's weekly horoscopes via email. Sometimes, if Cole's says "buy your partner flowers this week, she deserves it!" I clip and send her hers. If mine says "you need a lot of extra sleep this week" I do the same with mine.
But what I most often get a laugh-aloud kick from, is reading Nat's. Horoscopes not written for babies, applied to babies, can be very amusing.
See? Here's Nat's for this week:
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You've entered the most shadowy and
enigmatic phase of your astrological cycle, which is why I think you're
about to have a lot of interesting fun. You should look forward to your
travels in the abyss with exuberant anticipation. Here are some guidelines
to help you get the most out of the coming days. (1) Do the things that
are hardest to do, but do them gladly and with grace, as if they were a
great privilege. (2) Stay in intimate connection with your dark side, but
don't let that turn into an endorsement of your dark side's fantasies. (3)
Brainstorm about how to disarm and neutralize your adversaries without
fighting them.



I hadn't realized that Nat and Pearl are sign sisters!

"(3) Brainstorm about how to disarm and neutralize your adversaries without fighting them."
Does this mean that all toddlers enter "the most shadowy and enigmatic phase of [their] astrological cycle" around their first birthdays? Because I'm pretty sure that disarming and neutralizing their adversaries is a full-time toddler commitment. ;-)

Yes, I too could see all of this being a part of a toddler's lifestyle. It is so refreshing to drop in and thank you for sharing Nat with all of us.

This is also my horoscope *and* EL Chico's. I'm reading it on these two levels, and it seems to fit both of us this week. Of course, since we're each others' adversaries these days, I don't think # is going to be easy for either of us.
