One horoscope informs me that some desire of mine will snowball over the coming weeks, steamrolling down the birth canal, arriving fresh and fully formed...another horoscope tells me that though it certainly is the case that I'm trying to make changes for the better in my life, it's best to not do too much at once, and let things happen gradually.
If I were to take this advice and use it actively, I suppose I'd take the second point to heart first. I've often tried to change my life in a scatterbrained fashion; e.g., I am going to become a ninja, write a novel, travel the world, act in several movies, and read every important book ever written--and have something original to say about them too. I think I learned that approach doesn't work. Sure things get done, but those few secret desires haven't happened, yet. The older I get, the more secret they become--because the more foolish you look yapping about shit that remains in the realm of possibility. So secret they remain, but; those goals shed their light on you from their space of future probability--the street of desire runs both ways--the trick may be in knowing the end goal wants you as much as you want it. And a strong relationship like that usually pushes aside all other desires.
So, thing in the distance I want so badly, do you want me too?
