Aquarius (January 21st to February 18th)

Aquaboogie, this coming eclipse on Friday is a good reminder to surface your inner child again.  I’m not going to go all hippy on you and tell you that life will be wonderful and loaded with sunshine and dandelions once you do. The key attribute of a child isn’t the lack of responsibility one has (as any latch-key or eldest sibling will know isn’t true.) It is the sense of wonder and awe that the world may have, if only because a child is smaller and hasn’t lived long enough to see as much as they’re going to see. The clearest way to evoke that awe and sense of wonder is to find that thing that fills you with awe, no matter how great or trivial it may seem to be. It might be playing with a child’s toes or the intonation of a mantra. The how isn’t half as important as what’s stirred in you.
