POETIC LICENSE: Horoscopes for June 1-7

Devoted poet/avid concert-goer/nerd-grrrl extraordinaire Jane Cassady’s weekly horoscopes run in this space every Friday morning.

Gemini (May 19-June 21): Even more than usual, listen to a song lyric for messages. Shuffle, the radio, the dreamy music over the credits, they’ve got something important to tell you.

Cancer (June 22-July 23): To the Cancer who just got into an MFA program: CONGRATULATIONS! You are worth every writing minute. Fill your notebook with answers and forms and formulae. You’ll be even more yourself.

Leo (July 24-Aug. 23): To the Leo who’s moving when the lease is up: Your new place may or may not have a garden, its own washer-dryer, or a tall person’s shower, but I promise you this: quiet, a fresh start, more windows that open. You and your love and your cats will be happy and safe.

Virgo (Aug. 24-Sept. 23): You’ve been taking a break and now you’re frustrated, but I promise you — time to heal and read novels, to finish your homework, to take up half-assed yoga again, all the time you are taking for yourself will pay off in snuggly, sweaty, musky dividends sooner than you think.

Libra (Sept. 24-Oct. 21): Buy yourself a T-shirt that says “I want to cuddle you so hard.” Wear it someplace where snuggles are likely, which, for someone like you, is everywhere.

Scorpio (Oct. 22-Nov. 22): Be naked wherever you can, even if you’re just doing the dishes or sitting around watching TV. Feel everything against your beautiful skin, the sun on your shoulders, the breeze on your knees.

Sagittarius (Nov. 23-Dec. 22): When my book was accepted last fall, I was warned many times about how difficult the editing process would be. Actually, it was an ease and a pleasure — sometimes things actually work out to be easier than you thought. Things match up sometimes. Notice miracles like that.

Capricorn (Dec. 23-Jan. 20): The other day at my after-school-program job, when I launched into one of my many rousing speeches, a favorite student made me a sign that read “Teachable moment!!!” This week, put your two cents on whenever you see fit, maybe even a little more often than usual.

Aquarius (Jan. 21-Feb. 19): Think of all the things you loved but stopped doing and pick a few of them up again. Let me know what you find — discarded games, old rituals, new geysers of inspiration.

Pisces (Feb. 20-March 20): To the Pisces celebrating a book release this week: The stars are there with you, of course, blazing with pride, cheering you on. May the night be every sweet thing you ever wished for, your book’s spine strong, your loving friends elated.

Aries (March 21-April 18): Last week on Mad Men, Peggy Olson realized her worth. She took a raise and moved on to an agency where she could shine. Give notice to something that’s already expired and get what you deserve.

Taurus (April 19-May 18): No matter what you do, some connections stay with you, invisible ribbons looping their way across the city or across the world. Love them until they fade or never do. Learn what you can from them.

P.S. I am pleased and excited to announce that my biggest dream is in the process of coming true: My first full-length collection of poems, "For the Comfort of Automated Phrases," is now available for pre-order from Sibling Rivalry Press!

I'll also be planning some launch events and a few tour dates. Check here for details.
