IFLA: the Horoscope for the Week of November 24

This week we have a legendary apparition:  Mercury aligned with Mars, the Earth, and the Moon with the Sun and Venus in opposition.  With just a little bit of rearrangement, this is one of the most terrible signs you can see.  It’s what was overhead when David sent Bathsheba’s husband off to be killed.  Those born under that dark sign grow up to be prison guards.  But fortunately for us, this configuration isn’t a sign of sadism, selfishness and the violent ending of happy lives, it’s a sign of a dark tide turning, of an attack that lifts a siege, or a second wind that allows someone to outrun their pursuers.  Of course, this is only good news to you if your life is pretty shitty; if you’re doing ok, feel free to disregard this omen.

Things are coming up archers (great news for anyone involved in a shooting match) and while Sagittarius might have felt kind of bored with things remaining so static for so long, having Jupiter visiting you while your sun in in ascension is the kind of good fortune that only comes up rarely (but in a way that is completely predictable and calculable since the days of Pythagoras).  The moon in Libra brings tension to everyone as the change/balance fight goes on and Scorpio speaks of unpleasant news, what with Mars and Mercury.

The cards indicate that this is going to be a pretty shitty week, money-wise.  Sorry ’bout that.

    So the Stars are aligned just right for Virgo, and me,
    Awesome

    1. Maybe a good week for us Virgos. But this is always an undercurrent of my judgment…

      Are you crazy? The Virgo supercluster is heading right for that other supercluster. Do you know what happens when two superclusters collide? A super galactic clusterfuck!

      1. Yusef drives a Kia

        so, life as normal?

    If police unknowingly put a GPS tracker on your car and you find it remove it, that’s theft.

    My control freak boss is on vacation this week so I can confirm this is probably legit.

    I think there is an Epstein joke in there.

    loss, but something remains, inheritance, patrimony, transmissionbut not corresponding to expectations

    Sounds shitty. So normal.

    1. There is the Hanged Man card…

  7. Hyperion

    “Capricorn: The Hanged Man reversed – Selfishness, the crowd, body politic”

    That shit’s just boring. I’m going to identify as a different sign this month.

    1. Plinker762

    it’s a traveling day for the Wife and I, camping for a few days at least,
    so I figured I’d leave this,
    gf.me/u/wvgakg
    Close enough to house hunt,
    Vaya Con Dios, Tulpae!

    1. Fourscore

      I think this is a better Boomer school film.

        Right. Lol.

      2. AlmightyJB

        It’s weird that the date span for the Boomers is so large. Being born in 1963 while MLK was in DC giving his I Have a Dream speech, I’m technically a Boomer but I obviously didn’t come of age in the 60’s. Hell I didn’t graduate until 1981. I have very little in common with the 60’s flower children. We should have our own cocaine, qualuudes, and heavy metal generation.

          Auburn best three-loss team in the nation
          Texas A&M best four-loss team in the nation
          Texas best five-loss team in the nation
          TCU best six-loss team in the nation
          Texas Tech best seven-loss team in the nation
          Kansas best eight-loss team in the nation
          Northwestern best nine-loss team in the nation
          Akron best eleven-loss team in the nation

          Falling off the list: Washington, Michigan State, South Carolina, Georgia Tech, Rice, Western Illinois

    “The signs point to the dark tide turning”

    So the evil Trumputin will be impeached?

    1. Cacciatore

      Trumputler

    Razor comes around to what I’ve believed for a long time. Lobbyists work to perpetuate their own system and not for their supposed employers.

    https://youtu.be/JarDTCfDfZo

    1. mikey

      Absolutely. If you think your business needs to engage in some offensive or defensive lobbying you can’t just send a trusted employee off to Washington to do the job for you. They wouldn’t have a clue where to start. You hire a lobbying firm. Their interest is soley in maximizing billing hours.
      Lobbying is an industry seperate from their customers with their own seperate interests.

      1. Gustave Lytton

        It’s also those “trusted” employees in larger companies. That VP of Government Relations and their entire department are swap creatures too. Not just federal, but at the state and local level too. When they move on after a couple of years, they’re just as likely to go back to the regulatory agency or legislative staff as much as a competitor or trade group.

        1. Gustave Lytton

          It’s more than just billing hours. They have zero self interest in dismantling the regulatory state that is actively harming their own company.

  13. Gemini: King of Wands – Dark man, friendly, countryman, generally married, honest and conscientious.

    So I’m going to meet Heroic Mulatto?

    1. Cacciatore

      Missing: depraved links

  14. Nephilium

    I have now seen one of the best things ever. Browns fans having a Rudolph pinata that they were trying to break open with a Stiller’s helmet.

  15. PieInTheSky

    15 minutes until voting closes. this is completely unexciting.

    1. PieInTheSky

      exit polls are in and it seem it is 65 35 for the current guy

  16. Drake

    So business as usual for us Cancers.

    1. Rhywun

      Don’t be crabby about it.

    2. Tres Cool

      stop being shelfish about it

  17. The Late P Brooks

    Chiller-in-Chief

    “I guess to summarize, everybody needs to chill out about the candidates,” the former president said, as the room broke into laughter.

    One of Obama’s central goals was to bridge the chasm between left and center far left. He repeatedly dismissed the division as a false flag. “Everybody gets this notion of wild socialism with some of our campaigns,” he said. “The span of differences between our Dem candidates relative to Europe, I mean, you have to leave this country in order to really go all the way.”

    Don’t tip your hand too soon.

  18. Results of inaugural Great Glibs Debate:

    PieInTheSky wins and will face Jarflax in the next round. Larry Joe will face the loser of Biff and Ozymandias with leon facing the winner.

    Well done gentlemen!

    1. PieInTheSky

      Interesting. I think I had the easier argument. I think Biff and Ozymandias have a more interesting debate, more compelling arguments can be made for both sides.

      I will ask in the lynx tomorrow what were the weak spots in my argument.

      1. Gustave Lytton

        Lack of hot Romanian women.

        1. We’re not saying BEAM’s an alien, but . . .

          Gustave gets it.

  19. PieInTheSky

    Also Smokehead Sherry Bomb is not bad for the 200 RON I paid for it at discount. The smoke is a bit aggressive at times but I like that, although it can dominate the nose a bit much. But overall the Sherry is there and the flavor is fairly complex.

  20. Old Man With Candy

    Spud, you around? I scored some Durban Muscat des Beaumes de Venise. You know what I’m doing with that…

    1. “You know what I’m doing with that…”

      Mixing it with Capri Sun to lure in new “friends”?

      1. MikeS

        +1 botlle of Jesus juice

  21. commodious spittoon

    Vice, weakness, ugliness, perversity, corruption, peril

    At least it’s a short week.

    1. AlmightyJB

      What are we going to do on Monday?

  22. KibbledKristen

    At least Aries isn’t “everything is going to shit” this week
