ARIES (March 21–April 19): Now is an excellent time to feel and explore and understand and even appreciate your sadness. To get you in the mood, here’s a list of sadnesses from novelist Jonathan Safran Foer: sadness of the could-have-been, sadness of being misunderstood, sadness of having too many options, sadness of being smart, sadness of awkward conversations, sadness of feeling the need to create beautiful things, sadness of going unnoticed, sadness of domesticated birds, sadness of arousal being an unordinary physical state, sadness of wanting sadness.
TAURUS (April 20–May 20): Do you have any feral qualities lurking deep down inside you? Have you ever felt a mad yearning to communicate using howls and yips instead of words? When you’re alone, do you sometimes dispense with your utensils and scoop the food off your plate with your fingers? Have you dreamed of running through a damp meadow under the full moon for the sheer ecstasy of it? Do you on occasion experience such strong erotic urges that you feel like you could weave your body and soul together with the color green or the sound of a rain-soaked river or the moon rising over the hills? I ask these questions, Taurus, because now is an excellent time to draw on the instinctual wisdom of your feral qualities.
