Neurologists say that when you vividly imagine performing an action like shooting a basketball or playing piano, your brain activates many of the same networks it uses in real practice. In other words, mental rehearsal can measurably improve your actual performance. Many athletes use this trick. But here's an interesting twist: Such visualizations work for emotional and social skills too. We can enhance our resilience and better regulate our moods if we practice doing so in the privacy of our imaginations. I bring this to your attention, Leo, because you're in a period when your fantasy life has extra-robust practical power. I invite you to rehearse being who you want to be in the theater of your mind.

You may have noticed that I give away my horoscopes for free here.

So then how, you may ask, do I earn money? How do I pay my rent and buy gas for my 2008 Honda Element and create my future books?

In addition to paid subscribers, another way I raise funds is by creating Expanded Audio Horoscopes and Daily Text Message Horoscopes that DO cost money. If you would like to buy them, thereby contributing to my welfare, I invite you to partake.

You could also be a paid subscriber of my weekly newsletter — and get access to my other writing and music. (You're also welcome to subscribe for free.)
