I've had my astrological chart done three times in my life. The first was by someone with a personal agenda; I learned that I attract crazies. The second was done by my mother-in-law before she even met me. She never discussed it with me. The last was a quickie-fund-raising reading; I learned I'm an artist. But I still don't know who I really am. Apparently, I'm no wiser this year with attending monthly astrology meetings. However, it's been a good time to work on my freeform sketching. I've also met some nice and very interesting folks. Then with just a bit of bartering, this time next month, I may have my answers as the president of the StL chapter is personally doing my chart.
So now I'm feeling very awkward and vulnerable. I hope she still likes me when it's all done.

I used to love it when you put the "if your birthday is January 18" horoscope from the newspaper in the birthday gifts you gave me. You know it's bunk. You're who you want to be, not who you're told you are.
I disagree Doggie. If I was who I wanted to be, I would be living in NYC, married to uhh... Tom Waits. And you would be living next door. But life just ain't that easy.
I do find this whole astrological thing so complex and very scientific. Seriously. I should drag you along one day.
It's bunk Sharon. I love you but it's bunk. Let's talk about it. The gravitational pull of all the planets aligned is less than a gnat's breath. I know it's fun but it is NOT science!
Oh Doggie, you know that just our simple moon's orbit makes you very crabby every 28 days as well as controls ocean tides.
Besides, isn't the volume of breath from that teeny gnat just a wee bit bigger than an atom before it's split in two? And so, you know very well Doggie, that I love you too and size is irrelevant.
Okay, I'll agree, it's not really a science, but you know darned well - astrology is complicated, much like me. And like you, because you're a Capricorn and can't resist the intenseness with with you live your life.
The moon is only 1/4 million miles away and 1/6 the size of earth. It affects us. I wish I could make it easy for you to conceptualize gravity/mass and the distances we're talking. You CAN be whoever you want to be. Sometimes it just seems like too much trouble.
Golly-Gee Doggie, I'll never be as smart as you. So why DO you bother?
