Horoscopes and Life

I think that it’s a well-established fact that I am, plain and simply, a huge dork.  I’m a science fiction fan.  I love anime.  I am passionate about food and music. 

You get the idea.

To further press the point, I read my horoscope.  Every day.  And I’m constantly amazed at just how accurate it can be.

For example, today’s offering:

Thursday, Nov 11th, 2010 -- The day begins with the authoritative Capricorn Moon in your 7th House of Partners, reinforcing the hold that someone has over you.

This is interesting on several levels.  The first being, that I am in some dire straits at the moment financially.  I’ve been getting help from a couple of sources, however, when I woke this morning, I was panicking over several issues and it about drove me bonkers trying to calm myself down.  Anxiety attacks at 5:30 AM are so not fun. 

Secondly, we all have that one musician or artist that we love, right?  Well, I have a few, but there is one in particular that I’m rather enamored of.  I was looking online this morning and found he’d won a pretty impressive award for someone who is almost never even so much as nominated.  So, I cried.  Again, the dork thing, right?  Plus, just reinforcing someone else’s hold on me. 

But events can take some interesting twists and turns today, shifting the center of power from others to you.

This makes me laugh because A) of the bawling I did first thing this morning which was completely unexpected and B) I never, ever have ANY power.  Ever.  And even when I do?  No one respects my author-uh-tay.  LOL  Although, it IS still early yet, so there’s still a chance for a power shift here on the West Coast. 

Be careful, for being in control isn't all that it's cracked up to be. It's a smart strategy to find a supportive copilot so you don't have to do all the work.

Now this I love because, to be honest, I don’t want to be in control.  It’s like Bill Cosby once said regarding mothers being the real power in the home.  “I’ve seen her job and I don’t want it.”  That’s pretty much how I feel about it.  I’ll do what you tell me and ask me to but don’t expect me to take the reins and do your job for you.  Once you do that, you’re stuck doing it for the rest of your life.  Don’t get me wrong, I’m more than happy to step outside the box and take on or initiate things not usually my job, just so long as they fall within the realm of my job as it is.  I don’t want your job, I have enough to do on my own.

So, that’s it.  That’s my lesson for the day.
