Live in the moment and cast your troubles to the wind. Accept an unexpected invitation to socialize with new people; it will expand your awareness and provide you with important connections for the future.

Jump directly into the fray without any extra thought and let intuition be your guide.

This looks like another "remain flexible" day to me. Are you just looking for new and creative ways to tell me to loosen up, Horoscope?

No unexpected invitations.....no invitations of any kind. No fray to jump into. Just very thankful for my hairdresser who fit me in at the last minute.

Whoa, Trigger! 10

An uncharacteristic jumpiness that goes beyond free-floating anxiety is hard to shake today. You feel like a trigger that's ready to fire at the slightest little provocation. But you will feel even worse if you do lose your temper.

I was so anxious and jumpy all day that I finally broke down and cleaned the refrigerator, vacuumed, then lifted weights in the basement. And I probably did yell at the kids, or get close to it. I hate this feeling - and there's no way to get rid of it but to burn it off.

I don't even know why I was anxious all day. But I couldn't work on anything. Tried printing out my resume and the printer didn't work. Finally got the printer working and started to staple the resume to the back of my headshot and realized the paper is too big and will have to be trimmed down. That's when I gave up and started attacking appliances.

Tomorrow I plan to call some of my Pisces friends and see if they were jumpy all day too. If it was all of us, well, that's a lot of car accidents just begging to happen.

Freak-O-Scope - 0

It's said all our ancestors are still alive, inside ourselves. Remember the people you call wacky, who at least partially inform you who you are now. You may find yourself saying, oh, that's where that came from!

This is the kind of horoscope that gives Astrology a bad name. If some unfortunate Pisces picked today to start reading her horoscope she is probably still quivering in a corner.

I HAD to do a Google search: typed in "ancestors alive inside yourself" and came up with a blog dedicated to the god of truth: Shiva, a sacred Andean journey site, and found out that the Los Angeles Times runs the same horoscope as the Detroit Free Press.

I like the idea that some Pisces in Los Angeles who is maybe waiting to hear about a part in a movie, or whether they got into film school, or if their pilot got picked up for the season is trying to interpret the same cryptic messages that I am. Vanessa Williams (Ugly Betty) shares my birthday and I can't help but wonder if she glanced at her 'scope this morning and thought "What the ?" just like I did.

My Google search also brought up Native America poetry (why did I feel the need to capitalize that?), and a study on the psychology of advertising. I guess nothing is safe from advertising, not even dead ancestors. Of course I shouldn't talk - I'm the one who is trying to get Daughter's skating team sponsored so my monthly bill is only $1.

Why don't men think skating is a sport?

I know I'm off on a tangent here, but really - I have tried to figure skate. It's HARD. Daughter's team practices are 2-2 1/2 hours long and end with laps and drills and suicides - on skates! I remember playing basketball in high school and being exhausted at the end of a practice and can't imagine what it would have felt like to do suicides while trying to balance myself on two thin blades the entire time. Now I'm getting preachy, but I'm hoping that's what the documentary will show - what great athletes these girls really are.

Whew. Can't believe that diatribe came from "our ancestors are alive, inside ourselves" .... unless one of my ancestors was a soap box preacher! THAT could explain a lot.
