True Life: I'm an Astrology Junkie

Confession: Horoscopes are my guilty pleasure.

Standing in line at the grocery store, I rarely pass on the chance to flip to the back and read the month's predictions. Do I really, truly believe in them? Negative. But I think they're fun. And I'm a curious girl. And what I like even more than seeing the upcoming month's is looking over the one that has already passed, just to see if they have at all fallen in line with what's happened. They're usually a miss. Sometimes they're right on.

Tonight, after laboring in the sewing room, I get home and Google search "Project Runway" to catch up on the latest. (I like the background noise while I work. And FYI: I'm running out of shows to watch, so send recommendations my way.) So I'm eyeballing the page, trying to navigate my way to where I could watch full episodes. Then I spot it. Towards the right side of the page, there it is, practically beaming off the page, begging me to click it. "Astrology". Okay. Ya got me.

I find my sign, and, lacking interest in my daily or weekly horoscope, I select the the "Monthly" button. With April being nearly over, I thought I'd get a kick out of it.

Anyways, I about die over it. I thought I'd share at least the overview, because this one, well, it's pretty on point. And as a bonus, it can totally double as additional insight into my life lately, since I've neglected this little blog of mine and have mostly entered ambiguous and vague posts.

SCORPIO
April 2010
MONTHLY OVERVIEW:
Enough with letting your miles-long to-do list overwhelm you. (They are indeed extensive and have become legendary. They are out of control. It's really quite embarrassing.) It’s time to streamline your life and get back onto a healthy, efficient track. The Sun is in Aries until April 20, igniting your sixth house of fitness and well-being. Make time to take eat properly and exercise, no matter how busy you are. (I've been pretty sick this month. Maybe if I read my horoscope earlier this wouldn't have happened.)

We know it’s a challenge because Mars — the ruler of Aries and minor ruler of Scorpio — has been hyper-speeding through Leo, your 10th house of career. Work demands have dominated since mid-March, leaving many Scorpios frazzled and stretched paper-thin. (Hence the terse life updates; the ambiguous and vague posts, as aforementioned.) Mars is here until June, pitching fastballs at you. You can’t run on adrenaline and fumes, Scorpio. Unless you nourish yourself, you won’t have the strength to grab these plum opportunities.

On April 20, the Sun moves into Taurus, your relationship sector. The key to balance: finding reliable people to help carry the load. (Amazing friends: Check) That perfect partner may just be someone you already know. With Mercury retrograde (moving backward) in Taurus from April 18 through May 11, old friends and lovers come out of the woodwork, or you may hunt them down yourself. April ends with a Scorpio full moon on the 28th, a powerful moment that puts you at a crossroads. You’re pulled between your own path and the demands of work or personal relationships. If you haven’t already, this might be the day to declare, “Enough!”

It goes into more detail, but there is such a thing as overkill. You can read the rest, or your own, at your leisure here.

I just couldn't resist.
