Week of December 1
ARIES
(Mar. 21-Apr. 19): Journalist Hadley Freeman interviewed Aries actor William Shatner when he was 90. She was surprised to find that the man who played Star Trek’s Captain Kirk looked 30 years younger than his actual age. “How do you account for your robustness?” she asked him. “I ride a lot of horses, and I’m into the bewilderment of the world,” said Shatner. “I open my heart and head into the curiosity of how things work.” I suggest you adopt Shatner’s approach in the coming weeks, Aries. Be intoxicated with the emotional richness of mysteries and perplexities. Feel the joy of how unknowable and unpredictable everything is. Bask in the blessings of the beautiful and bountiful questions that life sends your way.
TAURUS
(Apr. 20-May 20): Of all the objects on earth, which is most likely to be carelessly cast away and turned into litter? Cigarette butts, of course. That’s why an Indian entrepreneur named Naman Gupta is such a revolutionary. Thus far, he has recycled and transformed more than 300 million butts into mosquito repellant, toys, keyrings, and compost, which he and his company have sold for more than a million dollars. I predict that in the coming weeks, you will have a comparable genius for converting debris and scraps into useful, valuable stuff. You will be skilled at recycling dross. Meditate on how you might accomplish this metaphorically and psychologically.
GEMINI
(May 21-June 20): Tips on how to be the best Gemini you can be in the coming weeks: (1) Think laterally or in spirals rather than straight lines. (2) Gleefully solve problems in your daydreams. (3) Try not to hurt anyone accidentally. Maybe go overboard in being sensitive and kind. (4) Cultivate even more variety than usual in the influences you surround yourself with. (5) Speak the diplomatic truth to people who truly need to hear it. (6) Make creative use of your mostly hidden side. (7) Never let people figure you out completely.
