There is something happening, but I wish I didn't know what it was.

Sagittarius Horoscope for week of December 29, 2016

Walk your wisdom walk in 2017, Sagittarius. Excite us with your wisdom songs and gaze out at our broken reality with your wisdom eyes. Play your wisdom tricks and crack your wisdom jokes and erupt with your wisdom cures. The world needs you to be a radiant swarm of lovable, unpredictable wisdom! Your future needs you to conjure up a steady stream of wisdom dreams and wisdom exploits! And please note: You don't have to wait until the wisdom is perfect. You shouldn't worry about whether it's supremely practical. Your job is to trust your wisdom gut, to unleash your wisdom cry, to revel in your wisdom magic.

Some say that wisdom is wasted on the wise. My sister wants me to apply to be a teacher, but I don't have all the credentials and would need to return to school again--if I can find one that can teach me what I need.

Sagittarius Horoscope for week of February 4, 2016

Richard P. Feynman was a brilliant physicist who won a Nobel Prize in 1965 for his pioneering work in quantum electrodynamics. He also played the bongo drums and was a competent artist. But excessive pride was not a problem for him. "I'm smart enough to know that I'm dumb," he testified. "The first principle is that you must not fool yourself -- and you are the easiest person to fool." I suggest you adopt him as your role model for the next two weeks, Sagittarius. All of us need periodic reminders that we've got a lot to learn, and this is your time. Be extra vigilant in protecting yourself from your own misinformation and misdirection.

I applied to be a Delegate at one of the Presidential Election National Conventions overnight. I'm not fooling myself in believing that I'll get my ticket--but I sort of feel that my chances are good. We'll see in March.

Sagittarius Horoscope for week of August 22, 2013

You've been pretty wild and uncontained lately, and that's OK. I've loved seeing how much permission you've given yourself to ramble free, experiment with the improbable, and risk being a fool. I suspect that history will judge a majority of your recent explorations as tonic. But now, Sagittarius, the tenor of the time is shifting. To continue being in alignment with your highest good, I believe you will have to rein in your wanderlust and start attending to the care and cultivation of your power spot. Can you find a way to enjoy taking on more responsibility?

If it paid, I might. I'm so good at waiting I didn't notice it was a whole MONTH since I applied at a job prospect and hadn't heard back. I don't know what I'm going to do about that.

Sagittarius Horoscope for week of May 23, 2013

Are you ready to go deeper, Sagittarius? In fact, would you be willing to go deeper and deeper and deeper? I foresee the possibility that you might benefit from diving in over your head. I suspect that the fear you feel as you dare to descend will be an acceptable trade-off for the educational thrills you will experience once you're way down below. The darkness you encounter will be fertile, not evil. It will energize you, not deplete you. And if you're worried that such a foray might feel claustrophobic, hear my prediction: In the long run it will enhance your freedom.

Sagittarius Horoscope for week of January 31, 2013

"Everyone is a damn fool for at least five minutes every day," said writer Elbert Hubbard. "Wisdom consists in not exceeding the limit." Judging from my personal experience, I'd say that five minutes is a lowball figure. My own daily rate is rarely less than half an hour. But the good news as far as you're concerned, Sagittarius, is that in the coming weeks you might have many days when you're not a damn fool for even five seconds. In fact, you may break your all-time records for levels of wild, pure wisdom. Make constructive use of your enhanced intelligence!

Is it that wisdom is wasted on the wise or that idiocy is wasted on the idiots?

Sagittarius Horoscope for week of January 10, 2013

Here's the horoscope I hope to be able to write for you a year from now: "Your mind just kept opening further and further during these past 12 months, Sagittarius -- way beyond what I ever imagined possible. Congrats! Even as you made yourself more innocent and receptive than you've been in a long time, you were constantly getting smarter and sharpening your ability to see the raw truth of what was unfolding. Illusions and misleading fantasies did not appeal to you. Again, kudos!"

If so, I hate the price I've had to pay for it.

Universal Studios is celebrating their 100th Anniversary this year by having a Sweepstakes on Facebook. The prize is FREE DVDs and Blu-Ray disks from their catalog, which is considerable. I went to their website just now to see exactly what I would want from them in the event of my success, or barring that, coming into a flow of cash to allow me to purchase my desired content.

I came up with about seventy titles, a mix of film sets and TV show seasons for the most part. A lot of the material shows up on Universal's TV channels, namely TH¡S and Retro.

Depending on how they count, I'd think I'd even have to find more titles to get if I won. Which, I suppose, is better than having to choose between existing favorites.

Sagittarius Horoscope for week of June 16, 2011

The coming weeks could be a Golden Age for your perceptiveness. If you're even moderately aligned with the cosmic rhythms, you will be able to discern hidden agendas that no one else has spotted, catch clues that have been hidden, and be able to recognize and register interesting sights you've previously been blind to. To maximize your ability to cash in on this fantastic opportunity, say this affirmation frequently: "My eyes are working twice as well as usual. I can see things I don't normally notice."

I hope I don't become like the Kid Who Saw Everything Twice in Catch-22 (the novel). Didn't work out so good for him.

Sagittarius Horoscope for week of June 9, 2011

You're in a phase of your astrological cycle when you're likely to be as attractive and endearing and in demand as it's possible for you to be. I am not making any absurdly extravagant claims here -- am not implying you'll be as charismatic as a rock star and as lovable as a kitten -- but you will be pushing the limits of your innate allure. I bet your physical appearance will be extra appealing, and you'll have an instinct for highlighting the most winsome aspects of your personality. To help you take advantage of the potential that's now available, please add the following word to your vocabulary: "concupiscible," which means "worthy of being desired."

One of my brother's thespian friends said, "Don't keep all your concupiscible giglets in one clackdish."
