Just Us Nerds

ARIES (Mar. 21—Apr. 20)
Check the wind
Take stock of yourself
Turn around and say a blessing
You are happy to be alive
You are happy to be where you are
Breathe
Love
Allow sense to drive you

TAURUS (Apr. 21–May 21)
You have come from the mountain
The walk has been slow but pleasant
You are looking at the animals
You see them all round you
They allow you into their party
Let them guide you

GEMINI (May 22–June 21)
The cave stretches into darkness
You hold your hand against the side
To track your path inward
You feel life move around you
Small and blind
But sure of where it is
You will get lost
Before you find your way out
Finding ourselves when we are lost
Defines us

CANCER (June 22–July 22)
The past surrounds you like morning
On a cold wet day
The ground absorbs your steps
The path drops and winds
You must find your way home

LEO (July 23—Aug. 22)
The croak of the frog
The grunt of the pig
The whisper of the trees
As you pass under them
Listen to the world
As it talks to you

VIRGO (Aug. 23–Sept. 23)
The candles burn dimly
Every shadow finds an ally
Darkness is not your enemy
Fear of darkness is what haunts you
Close your eyes
See what you need to see

LIBRA (Sept. 24–Oct. 23)
Watch the Sunset
Speak into the wind
Bless the end of the day
Embrace the night
Feel the world change
And accept all that comes

SCORPIO (Oct. 24–Nov. 22)
Never forget who you are
And everything that made you
Memory and love dance as partners
Each step moves you closer
To the life you want to lead
And the partner you seek

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23–Dec. 21)
The rain and the butterfly
Fall and fly
Drops on a tree
Wings in the spaces between
Every color comes alive
Then comes apart
Follow the colors
Fall and fly

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22–Jan. 20)
You are the fish in the cold stream
Hiding behind a good round stone
Waiting for the next bigger rock
To seek safety behind
Swim out into the unknown stream
Embrace the flow of the water
Avoid every stone you see

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21–Feb. 19)
Feel the rhythm of your pulse
Let the beat guide your breath
Close your eyes and rest
It is time to let go
You need to look deeper
Inside

PISCES (Feb. 20–Mar. 20)
Lay on your back
Watch the moon cross the stars
Watch over the stars as they align themselves
Feel the breeze against your face
Feel the ground underneath you
Connect yourself to the world
