Well, let me tell ya somethin’ about these here horoscopes. Folks call ’em “Linda C. Black Horoscopes” and such, but to me, it’s just plain star-gazin’. Don’t get me wrong, I ain’t sayin’ it’s all hogwash, but you gotta take it with a grain of salt, ya know? Like, sometimes they say, “Oh, you gonna have a good day,” and then your cow gets loose and you spend half the mornin’ chasin’ her down the road. So, there ya go.
Now, this Linda lady, or whoever’s writin’ these things now – I heard it’s her daughter, Nancy – they talk about all them signs. Aries, Taurus, Gemini… sounds like a bunch of fancy words to me. But I reckon it’s like this: each sign is supposed to be somethin’ different, like folks born in the spring are this way, and folks born in the summer are that way. Kinda like how some folks are good at plantin’ corn and some are better at milkin’ cows. We all got our talents, ain’t we?
They say this Linda started writin’ this stuff a long time ago, way back when. And she got real popular, like them folks on the TV. Her books, they say, were on some kinda list, the “best seller” list they called it. Folks were readin’ about the stars like they was readin’ the Good Book! Can you believe that? Me neither.
- But let’s talk about what these horoscopes actually say. They talk about good days and bad days, about love and money and work. Sounds like life, don’t it?
- They give you numbers too, like “today is a 7” or “today is an 8.” I ain’t got no clue what that means, but I guess it’s supposed to tell you how lucky you’re gonna be or somethin’.
- And they talk about the moon, like when it’s new and when it’s full. I always thought the moon just looked pretty in the sky, but apparently it does somethin’ to folks down here on earth too. Who knew?
For example, they might say somethin’ like, “Aries folks, you gotta pay attention today, or you might trip over somethin’ you didn’t see.” Well, that’s just common sense, ain’t it? You gotta watch where you’re goin’ no matter what your sign is! Or they might say, “Taurus folks, you’re gonna have some good luck with money today.” Don’t get your hopes up too high, though. I’ve heard that one before, and I ain’t seen no money fallin’ from the sky yet.
They also got this thing called the “Black Zodiac.” Now, that sounds spooky, don’t it? It’s like the regular signs, but darker, they say. I don’t rightly understand it, but it’s supposed to be about the hidden side of things. Like, you might look all sweet and innocent on the outside, but inside you got a little bit of devil in ya. We all got a little bit of that, I reckon.
And then there’s the birthdays. Every day they talk about whose birthday it is and what the year ahead is gonna be like for them. “Deepen your connections,” they say. “Keep your home tidy.” Well, that’s just good advice for anybody, whether it’s your birthday or not! If you wanna have good friends and a nice place to live, you gotta put in the work, ain’t that the truth?
So, are these horoscopes any good? I don’t know. Maybe they are, maybe they ain’t. It’s like plantin’ seeds. Sometimes they grow, sometimes they don’t. Sometimes the weather’s good, sometimes it ain’t. You just gotta do your best and hope for the best. And if the stars say you’re gonna have a good day, well, that’s just a bonus, ain’t it? But don’t go blamin’ the stars if things go wrong. You’re the one drivin’ the tractor, not them.
It’s all a bit of a mystery to me, this star stuff. But folks seem to like it, and it don’t hurt nobody, I guess. Just remember, common sense is worth more than all the star charts in the world. And a good day’s work will get you further than wishin’ on the moon. That’s what I always say.
