And:
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): U2's Bono has called Leonard Cohen's song
"Hallelujah" "the most perfect song in the world." It is mournful and
triumphant, despairing and uplifting. It's a riddle that improbably offers
cathartic release. Over 300 recording artists have done cover versions of
it, and it has even been the subject of books. And yet it was a challenge
for Cohen to compose. He wrote more than 80 verses before choosing
the few he would actually include in the final version, and in one famous
session he resorted to banging his head on the floor to stimulate his
creative flow. "To find that urgent song," he said, took "a lot of work and
a lot of sweat." I nominate "Hallelujah" to be one of your sacred symbols
for the next 12 months, Scorpio. From your strenuous effort, I predict,
will come masterful creations.
and...
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Scorpio novelist Kurt Vonnegut rebelled
against literary traditions. His stories were often hybrids of science fiction
and autobiography. Free-form philosophizing blended with satirical moral
commentary. He could be cynical yet playful, and he told a lot of jokes. "I
want to stand as close to the edge as I can without going over," he
testified. "Out on the edge you see all the kinds of things you can't see
from the center." He's your role model for the next four weeks, Scorpio.
Your challenge will be to wander as far as you can into the frontier
without getting hopelessly lost.
