♒ AQUARIUS

(January 20- February 18)
"Quo signo nata es?" is the Latin expression for "What's your sign?" Did anyone in ancient Rome ever say that? Probably not, since it's a modern idiom. However, astrology was very popular in that society and era. According to scholar Rhianna Padman in her essay "Astrology in Ancient Rome," Romans "believed that the specific positions of celestial bodies at the moment of a person’s birth could greatly impact their life and character." Back then, Thrasyllus of Mendes was a prominent astrologer who became a key advisor to Emperor Tiberius. Anyway, Aquarius, I bring "Quo signo nata es?" to your attention so as to inspire the following assignment: Update all your old favorite things. Put new spins on symbols and ideas that have served you for a long time. Take the best parts of your traditions and transplant them into the future.
