Hot on the heels of my epiphany yesterday, my horoscope had this to say today:

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): This is one of those rare times when your empathy could undo you unless you adhere to the following guidelines. 1. Squelch any attraction you might have to fascinating ruins, sexy decay, or appalling beauty. 2. If you have been sucked into the sphere of a good-looking monster or seductive tyrant, yank yourself free. 3. Break your gaze the instant you sense you’re falling under the sway of a flaming narcissist.  4. Suppress the temptation to think this thought: "I’m bored with my hell; I want to hang out in *your* hell for a change."

Guess that means I have to lay off the widda board again.  ;)   And I have to stop thinking of myself as a ruin, fascinating or otherwise.

Yanking myself free sounds pretty good right about now.  Think I can do it?

    If anyone I know can, its you. Just be gentle with yourself, my Friend.

    Finally gave up the widda board. Been a couple of weeks and I haven’t any urge to peek. If you are going to be a ruin than a fascinating one is the way to go, but why be a ruin at all? Work in Progress is good or better yet, In Transit.

    My horoscope the other day said to not give up because I will kick myself for being thisclose to success at last?
