Down-Below-And-Deep Inside Parts
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): One possible way to tap into the current cosmic opportunities would be to seek out *storegasms* — the ecstatic feelings released while exercising one’s buyological urges in consumer temples crammed with an obscene abundance of colorful material goods. But I advise you against doing that. It wouldn’t be a very creative solution to the epic yearnings that...

More prosaically put: Evaluate people according to the nobility and integrity of the desires they’re obsessed with.

A Parachute Out of Everything Broken
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Winner of the American Book Award in 1963, William Stafford wrote thousands of poems. The raw materials for his often-beautiful creations were the fragments and debris of his daily rhythm. “I have woven a parachute out of everything broken,” he said in describing his life’s work.
