Sagittarius Horoscope for week of October 15, 2015

One afternoon in September, I was hiking along a familiar path in the woods. As I passed my favorite grandmother oak, I spied a thick, six-foot-long snake loitering on the trail in front of me. In hundreds of previous visits, I had never before seen a creature bigger than a mouse. The serpent's tail was hidden in the brush, but its head looked more like a harmless gopher snake's than a dangerous rattler's. I took the opportunity to sing it three songs. It stayed for the duration, then slipped away after I finished. What a great omen! The next day, I made a tough but liberating decision to leave behind a good part of my life so as to focus more fully on a great part. With or without a snake sighting, Sagittarius, I foresee a comparable breakthrough for you sometime soon.

I could use a breakthrough. I've been trying to reconcile my future with the fragments of my past that I have left.

Sagittarius Horoscope for week of February 6, 2014

"What is the purpose of the giant sequoia tree?" asked environmentalist Edward Abbey. His answer: "The purpose of the giant sequoia tree is to provide shade for the tiny titmouse." I suggest you meditate on all the ways you can apply that wisdom as a metaphor to your own issues. For example: What monumental part of your own life might be of service to a small, fragile part? What major accomplishment of yours can provide strength and protection to a ripening potential that's underappreciated by others?

It's hard to know the whole of one's own ecology, macrocosm or microcosm.

Sagittarius Horoscope for week of November 21, 2013

Costa Rica will be closing its zoos in 2014. What will happen to the 400 or so animals that are housed there? They will have to be rehabilitated at animal rescue centers and then released into the wild. I suspect there will be a metaphorically similar process going on for you in the coming months, Sagittarius. Parts of your instinctual nature will, in a sense, be freed from captivity. You will need to find ways to retrain your animal intelligence how to function outside of the tame conditions it got used to.

Am I hard enough?/Am I rough enough?/Am I rich enough?/I'm not too blind to see!

I'm a Horse. I need my stable.

Dad has plunged headlong into his gardening and landscaping this summer. I fear he feels obliged to garden for two, and at his state of health I worry.

When we were living in a suburb of Erie in the 1970s, one of his co-workers, a fellow named Schroeder, came and worked on our garden because he didn't have one of his own.

I think we need somebody like that now.

While I was asleep this morning, one of our family friends, Jessica, was here picking up a dozen eggs that Dad had gotten her from a nearby farm as per their usual arrangements. After she left and I fell asleep again, I dreamt that Mum was there in the living room with Jessica and Dad, getting them caught up on the goings in the hereafter.

I can't remember what she said.

Besides, would you really want to know?

Sagittarius Horoscope for week of April 26, 2012

In the famous children's book The Little Prince, the hero lives on an asteroid with three volcanoes, two active and one dormant. One day he decides to leave home and travel to other realms. Before departing, he meticulously scours all three volcanoes. "If they are well cleaned out," the narrator reports, "volcanoes burn slowly and steadily, without any eruptions." I recommend that you take after the Little Prince, Sagittarius. It's high time to attend to the upkeep of your volcanoes. Make sure they will burn slow and steady in the coming months, even when you're not at home.

Akron. Granted, this was the Akron in 1974, so Akron now is probably very different and likely to be more hospitable.

More than 200, possibly 300 or so. Depends on how you count.

Planet Earth, in its solar orbit, travels a distance four times its diameter every HOUR...

...But it takes more than 20,000 YEARS to travel a linear Light Year.

An Earthquake Happened Near Here. It sounded like a very loud truck going past. I didn't feel it so much, but I was seated in a castered chair and if the earth moved I could have blamed the chair.

Letting others do the gardening. I have a terminally Brown Thumb.
