age of aquarius

While I was getting my oil changed this morning I flipped through the pages of the high society publication Town & Country. I don't think I've ever read it because it seems completely removed from everything I'm find interesting(it's too glossy in its depiction of the privileged and powerful). However, I did find myself fixated by the horoscope section devoted to predictions and possible outcomes for this year. Mine just so happened to be dead-on, almost freakishly so. Aquarians, pay attention, you might learn something:

"Relax, take a deep breath, and unclench your jaw. This year is going to be a breeze after the planetary pummeling you’ve just been through, and a bright new era of your life is dawning."

"You meet challenges head-on with cool logic and objectivity. You probably don’t even realize how stressed-out you’ve been. But there’s no question that the adverse influences of Saturn, Neptune and Mars during the past two years have been grueling. Indeed, the personal and professional uncertainties you’ve been fielding have not only put you through your paces, they probably would have sent less sturdy members of the zodiac round the bend."

"Professionally, 2008 will be a particularly upbeat and rewarding period, when you successfully establish yourself in new venues or brilliantly consolidate your present position. Your newly found confidence and poise will be apparent to all, and you’ll be the one everyone turns to for expert advice, or when the going gets tough. What’s more, with Jupiter on course for your birth sign in 2009, your achievements of this year are setting the stage for a particularly star-studded career cycle."

"Private retreats and getaways (you may find yourself particularly attracted to mountainous regions) will be superbly enjoyable and restorative, especially in early January, mid-July and late December. Any altruistic endeavors or worthy causes that piqued your interest and attention last year are likely to become a more central part of your life, and you may be playing an increasingly major role in your favorite charitable organization."

That last part is especially true because I can officially announce that through the benevolent powers that be at Gallery NuLu (you know who you are), I'm attending the Sundance Film Festival for a couple of days. Parties, ski bunnies, swag, film--what more could I ask for?
