Horoscope for the week of June 29, 2014

Something is bubbling in the collective unconscious.  On Monday, the issue rises to the conscious level.  On Wednesday, a consensus forms.  And on Saturday, the issue becomes subordinated to the usual suspicious factions of self interest.  Ah yes, the long term insidious effects of Pluto in Capricorn, where voters vote against their own interests, politicians campaign on issues and then, elected, work against them.  This is all part of the destruction construction process of Pluto in the newly minted Age of Aquarius.  Be observant in your own life for the issue that bubbles up Monday, finds definition Wednesday, and becomes subverted by Saturday.

Aries:  The accident you suffered last week is now into healing mode.  You are distracted by short term and small issue needs of the shallow, appearances only crowd.  Buck up, Aries.  You have had a profound experience which will find correct expression, but not this week.  Ruminate until the 27th of July, at which point you will be unleashed.

Taurus:  This week will be a challenge for your ability to do two things at one time, to think one way, and act another.  Older people are the agents of your oppression.  You are well aware that your long term strategic goals hinge upon short term tactical efforts.  To wit: feign retreat to lure the foe into ambush.

Gemini:  Be warned, you will be handed a hot potato on Wednesday.  This will be one of those unsolvable problems that you have not the mandate, resources, nor agenda to solve.  Use your bureaucratic skills of obfuscation to delay until Saturday, when a more deserving sacrificial lamb steps forward.  Think referral fees.

Cancer:  Let the big fish deal with the big picture.  You are doing just fine.  Resources become available in a step wise fashion: they arrive Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday.  Your project of expansion is aided by your continuing streak of good luck, good choices, and good friends.

Leo:  Take your clothes off and run around naked every day this week.  This is a clever way of saying that the problems of other people belong to other people, not you.  The peasants should not be crawling to you with all their problems all the time, O King of the Zodiac.

Virgo:  You will be handed all most all of the resources you need to solve two strategic problems in your life on Wednesday.  So what?  Evolution has not caught up to your advanced state, which is a pity.  Download occurs on Saturday.

Libra:  You will have the opportunity for a new romance Saturday, even if the paper pushing requirements of life keep you distracted until then.  Be prepared to party.  You have a secret admirer, of course.  Look around to see who is pining for your caress.

Scorpio:  Invention and industry are at your command.  Unfortunately, you are under the command of fickle fashion and shallow tastes.  Renew your allegiance to your secret agenda.  This is the time to put aside resources and information for your future campaigns of self interest.

Sagittarius:  Good thing you are good at thinking on your feet.  You are beholden to the agenda of others this week, and the others keep changing.  Think of yourself as a Roman Army commander.  The emperor keeps changing.  Your mission is to keep your troops loyal ... to you.

Capricorn:  Everything is going according to plan.  The plan is patience, endurance, and those stubborn skills you have in spades.  Which is good, but somewhat frustrating.  Listen to good advice, learn from invention, and break down and have some fun.

Aquarius:  You are the servant of the War God this week.  In an indirect way, your musings and judgements are of value to those who push pawns around the chess board of life.  Capture and share your thoughts for the appreciation of others.  You have powerful friends.

Pisces:  Ships may sink under you this week, but you will be found dry and content aboard a lifeboat.  Have confidence that you are going the right way, even as the herd heads towards their doom.  It would be in your best interests to re read Freud's Interpretation of Dreams.

The Shepherd, the sheep, and the wolves

What a great day.  Finally, Ontario has put to rest the racist, sexist, homophobic past and elected a woman, a gay woman.  What a relief.  The sun is shining. 

Voters in Ontario have said yes to pension security, employment justice, and vacation rights.  I am willing to bet your pension, livelihood, and happiness on that.  You can quote me on that too.

The gloomy hyperbole about economic collapse is dispersing like snow in a Global Warming winter.  Remember last winter?  Remember the children asking 'Will I ever see snow again?'.  Yup.

I was sitting on the subway and I let off a long, silent fart of happiness.  The train was stopped because of delays.  I wanted to share my joy.  Later, while waiting in traffic to make a left turn (only one block before some traffic lights) I was savoring the waving fists of happiness and the honking horns of consensus.  All is good.  You can let your dog take a crap in the park knowing that someone else is responsible.  The children have spoken.

There will be no layoffs in the civil service.  There will be more regulations to protect the earth.   Health care will be better and faster.  My white guilt is gone like jism down the throat of a sex trade worker. 

Share in the happiness.  Join me.  Fart on the subway.  Make left turns in rush hour.  Embrace the black market economy and keep your money for yourself.  You will have to provide the services the government promises and taxes for, so keep your money for that purpose.  The wolf will lay down after filling his belly with lamb and sleep the contented sleep that only a wolf in a land of doltish shepherds can.
