Horoscopes for Black Pride 2010

Heavenly Round-Up: If it walks like a duck, looks like a duck, has feathers like a duck and sings like Diana Ross, is it still a duck? And what is it wearing? If it’s got something sequin pave on, maybe it isn’t a duck at all? Don’t make too many assumptions about any thing, one or place for this gathering of Pride. There’s so much which had been stuck and is now in motion, it just isn’t safe to believe that the truth of five minutes ago is still operative.

Aries: You’re ready to cut loose and have fun. You’re ready to let your hair fly and your attitude off the chain. You’re dying for a chance to have a good time just being you. And you’re prepared to ignore for a little while longer all the pressing matters clamoring for attention.

Taurus: You can’t help that grouchy sensation you get when you’re off your normal schedule and eating everything in sight. At the same time, you want to have fun and you’ve made the plans to prove it. How will you determine your dominant paradigm? Reflect.

Gemini: It’s your time. It’s your party. It’s your show and you’re not afraid to show everyone in sight. Do yourself a favor and keep your nose clean and your hands where they can be easily photographed without a lawsuit following. Wear stripes for effect Sunday.

Cancer: It’s not the end of the yellow brick road. It’s not the last goodbye. It’s not over until the fat lady gets carried out on a stretcher. If you could wait for the harrowing endings, you’d enjoy the present a little more thoroughly and with a whole lot less trepidation.

Leo: You’ve been to the mountaintop, but you didn’t stay. Was it because you didn’t like the distance of the view? Was it the lack of range and scope afforded by such a limited landscape? Was it not having enough room for your adoring entourage? Sleep soundly soon.

Virgo: You could dance till the cows came home, but you wouldn’t be able to guarantee you’d stop even then. You’re in the mood to celebrate, and you even have some concrete ideas about how. Don’t get to wrapped up in plans. The spur of the moment’s the thing this time!

Libra: You’ve gotten good at spontaneity, if only because you forget to confirm and follow through on the things you’d worked out ahead of time. You can have a great time without having to know where the next one is coming from. Use this energy to the max on Sunday.

Scorpio: You’re looking for the seamy underbelly, and it’s always through the next door or up the next flight of stairs, or around the next corner. But really, this isn’t quite as much that kind of an atmosphere as you sometimes enjoy. Go for the lighter side if you can.

Sagittarius: If you were a superhero, what would your powers be? What would have been your origin? Where would you go to do the most good with what you have? Really, you are already super. You only have to focus and perform with assurance. Ask early.

Capricorn: You don’t need to be gloomy anymore. You don’t need to fear the future. You don’t need to take a bleak outlook. You also don’t need to be the life of the party. You don’t need to go through the forced mirth and frolics, if you don’t want to. Decide before it’s over.

Aquarius: You went along with the general flow. So far, so good. But you’re having a hard time shaking the feeling that there’s somewhere else you’re meant to be and something else you’re meant to be doing. You may not be wrong. Sit quietly to consider on Saturday.

Pisces: You’re having exactly as much fun as you’d promised yourself you would. You’re hanging out with the people you’d specifically decided would be the ones offering the most return on your investment of time. You’re doing pretty well for being notoriously flakey.
