Zodiak and the Blind Pig

I'm not one for Astrology. But, every now and then curiosity gets the better of me while flipping through a newspaper. I always find them overly broad and boring, bearing little resemblance to anything going on in my life at the time. This was not the case Wednesday night. I was drinking locally brewed pale ale at the Blind Pig Brewery with some friends, and we began talking about the band line up for the coming weekend's downtown Streetfest. There is no better print to find this sort of thing out than the local University's alternative weekly newspaper, The Buzz. While it was devoid of the information we so desperately craved at the moment, I flipped it over to the comics. They failed to entertain me and I spied the Astrology section. A rather in-depth Astrology section in fact. Scanning over to Libra I found this....

"It's high time to banish the excuses you think you have for not doing your best. There is no longer any valid reason to hide from your true calling or deny yourself more profound happiness. You are ready to see that the supposed "obstacles" to your success are actually instrumental to your success -- prods that will make you so much smarter and stronger that you cannot be defeated by circumstances. Why is this happening now? It's because a force working behind the scenes -- you can imagine it as God or destiny or karma if you like -- is clearing away the illusions that have held you in thrall to false ideas about who you are. If i were you, I'd shout "hallelujah!" as I pinch myself in the butt and pat myself on the head."

I did exactly as it suggested in combination with another pale ale.
