In the Stars


It's been decades since I read my horoscope. What I won't do for Sunday Scribblings!

Today happens to be my birthday, and the first horoscope I googled gave me this sound advice:

Don’t be too surprised if you start to feel you need some space. The Cancer/Capricorn opposition could put you in quite an aloof or detached mood today. Schedule yourself some time, and if possible postpone any decisions or discussions relating to romantic matters!

"You need some space...schedule yourself some time..."

I think this is a good motto for my coming year.

Check up in one year on how well I followed the suggestions: same time, same blog.

This post was inspired by the Sunday Scribblings writing prompt for this weekend: "What's your sign?

A very happy Birthday to you.

Becca, isn't it true that a lot of horoscope advice is good for anyone and everyone?

Thanks for all of these wishes so far. It almost makes up for spending my evening hosting my 14-year-old's birthday/slumber party (her real birthday is just a few days before mine...)

Happy Birthday, Betty!

Bonne anniversaire! I'm so pleased to be around to "say" that.

Betty Carlson said...

Merci, Siouxfire.

BTW, it's "bon" anniversaire, not "bonne."

You write better English than I do now, so at least I can still correct your French!

I hope you had a wonderful birthday, Betty. And yes, making time for oneself is important, despite the notions of selfishness often associated with it. We can only be a better person for those around us if we are good to ourselves! I hope this coming year brings you much happiness and fulfillment.
