MARCH 29, 2009
Mercury and Venus align in
Aries to add a wide-eyed
enthusiasm to our conversa-
tions. The boundaries of what

WEEK AHEAD: Pluto may
be small in comparison to
other important luminaries
around the sun, but many
astrologers feel his influence is
so profound that whole books
have been written about the
dwarf planet. In his own realm
of the Kuiper belt, he is King
Kong. He was discovered in
1930 a few months after the
stock market crash set off the
Great Depression. It was an 11-
year-old girl who had the idea
to name this new planetary
discovery “Pluto” after the
Greek god of the underworld.
Venetia Burnev was a preco-
cious child, fascinated with
mythology. I'd like to believe
that in some extrasensory way
she felt the powerful reso-
nance of this faraway force
and settled on a name that
ultimately was so fitting that it
was unanimously chosen by
the members of the Lowell
Observatory. This week Pluto
changes his course and will be

ARIES (March 2l-April 19).

ASTROLOGICAL QlTvS
TTONS: "Do you think that all
Aries are hot-tempered? I am
an Aides and I get so mad in
traffic that sometimes I have
to pull over just to calm down.
Usually 1 can control my tem-
per verv well, but not always.
Do you have any tips for some-
one born under the guiding
planet Mars?"
I do think that Aries run
emotionally hotter than most
other signs. Mars is definitely
the raging planet of the zodiac.
And though he may be the god
of war, ruler of road rage and
king of bar fights, lie's not all
bad. After all, without passion
nothing remarkable could
occur in life. Someone has to
be more than a little bit filled
with fire to decide to erect a
pyramid or rocket to the
moon. Your Aries rage is really
wasted in traffic when you
consider that it could be chan-
neled as the fuel you need to
perform superhuman efforts.
So the question is, what are
the superhuman efforts that
you want to accomplish in
your lifetime? It is essential
that you decide on an exciting
and challenging future toward
which you can direct the enor-
mous power inside you.
