Need a penny, take a penny. Have a penny, leave a penny. - 3

Put a penny in your shoe or pocket for a boost of power and luck today.

I had no idea that power and luck were that cheap!

Could have used both today. Could have used both all week. Have been feeling both powerless and unlucky. Not continuously. There have been great moments of joy and creativity and fun and pride. But Husband has been working a lot and Daughter's schedule has been crazy and I spent 2 hours at an orthopedic surgeon's office yesterday morning, and that is seriously enough to make anyone depressed. And when I asked the Dr. (after waiting nearly 2 hours to see him) if my disks have any hope of healing, he said "Maybe in 5-10 years."

I'm exhausted and frustrated and taking things personally that aren't.

I'm tired of hypocrites and liars.

But I did see a rocking production of Willy Wonka Jr. tonight and Daughter did a beautiful job and Son was so impressed with his big sister. I need to stop thinking and start enjoying.

Can my life get a ticket for speeding? - 10

Your daily rhythms are speeding up, even if your life is already busy.

If my life got any busier I'd need a twin. As it is I'm trying to be in two places at once most of the day. Totally missed Son's baseball game. Though I think he's a little tougher when I'm not around (boy I hate to admit that).

Spent most of my afternoon/evening working my cranky out on 60 Oompa Loompas from the middle school play. One little (insert bad word here) was giving me attitude because I wouldn't let her take her cell phone on stage! Luckily Daughter spends most of her time onstage or backstage on the other side and didn't view my tyrant behavior, though I'm sure she'll hear about it at school tomorrow.

Tomorrow is more of the same. Appointments, meetings, rehearsals, and the 1st grade Egypt play and it just continues on through the rest of the week and next.

I was reading some other Astrology Blogs today and read the most interesting one about how Pluto, though not a real planet, has done a darn fine job predicting the sexual scandals of A) the church then B) government. I can't help but be curious as to who is next!

A welcome rest - 10!

Every now and then, you're in the perfect astrological position to make your dreams come true. This is your time. All you have to do is stop searching. Let things unfold as they will. You can't help but find the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

After an exhausting ice show weekend (no, I wasn't skating, just volunteering) I was too tired to 'scope last night, but couldn't help checking yesterday's this morning.

This horoscope couldn't be more welcome! Stop searching?! Hooray! I really don't have time for searching in my calendar this week anyway. And I'm looking forward to my pot of gold!

Report Card - 6

Avoid sharp objects, volatile situations and all machinery that you really don't have to touch. Keep your hands to yourself and no trouble will ensue.

I love it when I get a horoscope that is basically just good everyday advice. Isn't all this on that list of Things I Learned in Kindergarten? So, let's see if I was a good girl ...

Sharp Objects - Fail - Chopped apple:, used forks, pencils, pens, chopsticks and other pointy, potentially-dangerous instruments.

Volatile Situations - Fail - Got into a discussion with a friend over a shared situation where we both have strong, opposing beliefs. At times I just wanted to hang up, I hate to argue and I especially hate to argue with friends. Got through it, but I'm not sure it accomplished anything except teach me that maybe we can disagree about things and still be friends. Maybe I'll give myself a Fail +.

Machinery I Don't Really Have to Touch - Pass - Vacuum sitting in foyer, walked right by it.

Keeping Hands to Myself - Pass - No explanation necessary.

No Trouble - Pass - As far as I know.
