Horoscopes may or may not be true, but they are fun to read either way. Every week I get a free horoscope from Rob Brezney, and while you could argue that each horoscope could be applied to anyone, that doesn’t mean there isn’t something interesting, surprising, insightful, amusing, or downright irritating–all good–to be found. I like this week’s horoscope and its observation about the flow of the river.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “What makes a river so restful to people is that it doesn’t have any doubt,” wrote columnist Hal Boyle. “It is sure to get where it is going, and it doesn’t want to go anywhere else.” Your assignment for the rest of 2008, Libra, is to do whatever’s necessary to make yourself fit this description. The next eight months will provide unprecedented opportunities to turn yourself into a river flowing toward your destiny with surprisingly sublime freedom.

Let’s see where I am in eight months…and hey, you could be a river too!
