Horoscopes by Rob Brezsny


Week of January 8th, 2009

♌ LEO

(July 23-August 22)
"Obstacles are a natural part of life, just as boulders are a natural part of the course of a river," notes the ancient Chinese book the I Ching. "The river does not complain or get depressed because there are boulders in its path." I'd go so far to say -- this is not in the original text, but is my 21st-century addition -- that the river gets a sensual thrill as it glides its smooth current over the irregular shapes and hard skin of the rocks. It looks forward to the friction, exults in the intimate touch, loves the drama of the interaction. Sound like a pleasure you'd like to cultivate, Leo? It's an excellent time to try it.


This week and next week, my EXPANDED AUDIO HOROSCOPES will feature Part 2 and Part 3 of my long-range, in-depth explorations of your destiny in 2009. Tune in! Start brainstorming about the adventures that could be in store for you in the coming months. (P.S. Part 1 of your Year-End Predictions, which I offered last week, is also still available.)
