We are people living in uncertain times, and I figure that means I
should have horoscopes delivered once every hour, giving a very specific
breakdown of what we should be doing at any given moment.
Eg. 8am: "some of the fruit in your fridge is about to go bad, maybe
you should have that for
breakfast!?" 5pm: "leave work and walk two
streets south, wait there until the love of your life arrives"
To add to the authenticity, these fortunes could be made by an
astrologer who is always flying over a place that is one time-zone
ahead.

Cue massive surge in astrologers [+] |
|

Strictly speaking the astrologer don't have to
constantly fly to be one time zone ahead. He just
needs to live somewhere with one time zone
difference and, amazingly, the two places keep
synchronised ... |

Jupiter passes Orion
and comes into junction with Mars
Saturn is weaving through infinite space
to its preordained place in the stars
And I gaze at the planets in wonder
at the time and trouble they expend
all to warn me to be careful
in dealings involving a friend.

if after the first one didn't happen, I'd surely not wait for the second one... |

Ah, nice to see a bit of Flanders & Swann grace the old 'bakery, csea.

What [csea] said, and with gusto! |
|

It has been said (by Miles Kington, possibly?) that astrology is neither an art nor a science, but a prose style - that's why [rcarty]'s efforts, though fine as to content, wouldn't work as astrology because that content is presented too clearly. |

What do you mean the gas man cometh --- are you trying to tell something...? |
