Everything old is new again (Wed) 9

You might have an exciting idea about a new way to make money with today's Aries Moon in your 2nd House of Income. But don't latch onto any big plans, for over-analyzing one thought can actually prevent you from having the next brilliant idea. If you assume there is an infinite supply of practical thoughts, then this may be your opportunity to let them flow without having to turn one into an instant winner.

Whoa! I woke up at 5:30 am with an idea for a school program and it was running through my head so loudly I had to get up and start working on it. And I must have been over-analyzing it because I did not have another brilliant idea all day! Darn it!

I have a hard time with the idea of an infinite supply of practical thoughts. Every time I think of something that voice in my head (Evie - you scamp) says "Some one's probably already thought of that." I used to be more confident about my ideas.

I used to be more confident about a lot of things.

I used to be the girl that shouted "Let's put on a show in the Johnson's barn! My mom can make curtains!" And next thing you know there'd be a show and an audience and everyone would have a great time. In fact, while cleaning out my basement I've stumbled across some of my old ideas and they're not bad. Maybe it was just the timing. Maybe I should pull those old ideas out - now that I know more - and try to get them out into the light of day.

Hey, maybe those OLD ideas were the brilliant ones that I wasn't supposed to get in the way of!

Congratulations! It's a .... 6

If you listen closely to what others are saying today, you'll gain amazing insight under the Capricorn full Moon. Internal conflicts or power struggles can be eliminated if you just accept conditions as they are and trust that the Universe will change things in due time.

The only person I really heard today said that my writing is smart and funny. But also a little negative. I can see that. I'm a little cynical, I'll cop to it. But I do want the reader to finish reading feeling better about themselves, and me, so I need to do some work.

Can't think about writing today, though, I'm deep in the throes of basement cleaning. It's quite addicting. I've been throwing things out like crazy, including all my old - and negative - journals. I'm not thrilled to find that I'm still writing about the same issues at 44 that I was writing about at 24. Yikes.

And so, Universe, I AM accepting things as they are: I'm unemployable, smart and funny but negative, and unable to raise money for a documentary. I wouldn't mind knowing when "due" time is, though. In my experience, the first time you hear "due" the time frame is 9 months. I'm praying that is not the case now.

It's a good thing 8

If you're a homebody right now, that's a good thing!

I have been a total homebody. To the point of hiding out in my basement. I'm tired of babysitting my cell phone and email, just waiting for a job, an investor, anyone to contact me and cleaning out the basement is keeping me busy. And I'm actually accomplishing something. It feels pretty good to throw stuff out and get the rest of it organized. It feels great to walk into a spacious, not crowded, laundry room.

It feels good to let my mind relax too. My mind has been running about 100 mph since last winter and trying to actually give something some thought is like trying to enter a speeding highway. I needed to slow down and not think about anything, but be doing something at the same time. If that makes any sense.

So thank you, my Martha Stewart Horoscope, for letting me know I'm on to a 'good thing.'
