Taurus Horoscope for week of May 5, 2005
On a family member's 60th birthday, the Japanese celebrate a holiday
known as kanreki. It's a time of rebirth, when the celebrant ritually
becomes a baby again and enters a second childhood. Among the many
gifts given on the occasion is a red kimono, which signifies that in
a sense the person is now freed from the responsibilities of
adulthood. I recommend that you treat yourself to a similar rite of
passage, Taurus. Even though you may not be turning 60, you are at
the beginning of an extraordinarily fresh new cycle. You deserve a
red kimono and at least a temporary respite from adult burdens.
Gemini Horoscope for week of May 5, 2005
It's time to declare amnesty for the part of you that you don't love
very well. Forgive that poor sucker. Hold its hand and take it out to
dinner and a movie. Tactfully offer it a chance to make amends for
the dumb things it has done. And then do a dramatic reading of this
proclamation by the playwright Theodore Rubin: "I must learn to love
the fool in me--the one who feels too much, talks too much, takes too
many chances, wins sometimes and loses often, lacks self-control,
loves and hates, hurts and gets hurt, promises and breaks promises,
laughs and cries. It alone protects me against that utterly self-
controlled, masterful tyrant whom I also harbor and who would rob me
of human aliveness, humility, and dignity but for my fool."
