Forecast Period: April 30, 2013 to May 5, 2013 Aries: This week you connect with friends, acquaintances and colleagues. In that process you make new connections.

I’ve been known to plan entire vacations around street art. Give me a dilapidated building and a dusting of spray paint, and I’m putty in the hands of the graffiti gods. One aspect of Lisbon that originally drew me to the city is its wealth of murals, most of which marry architectural details with carefully crafted […]
Aries: Money issues come to a head this week. Beneath it all there is some deep soul searching going on as recent events have made you feel threatened and undermined your sense of security.

For those who don’t know what it is, it’s a folk art festival in rural Alabama featuring the freakiest, funkiest and folkiest artists from the South. The Doo-Nanny was only a few weeks away and I searched […]

You are taking a stand, expressing who and what you are, and at this time it is very difficult for you to see the other guy’s point of view. You need to gain some perspective before you move to […]
