IFLA: The “Very Specific” Edition of the Horoscope for the Week of March 28

by | Mar 28, 2021 | IFLA | 121 comments

While this week doesn’t start off with anything, on Monday all of the inner planets get together and form an en tierce arrangement with the sun, moon, Venus and Earth on the major axis and Mercury and Mars on the minor.Β  The minor axis is the initiating event or the event of primary influence.Β  Because of the plantes involved and where they are (Pisces and Gemini), This event is “A man [also warrior, modern attitudes of gender roles make this less clear] is caught in a lie [or previous decepton revealed].” The major axis is the event of main interest, in this case it’s obviously referring to a woman.Β  Unfortunately it’s difficult to determine which woman we’re talking about since Aries being involved gives characterizations of both “strong willed” and “peevish” (though both could be true.) What’s easier to determine is what/why she’s doing it — the Moon in Libra indicates she is acting with either the intent or the effect of “justice.”Β  A woman kicking some guy to the curb because he’s a liar is an excessively common event, so typically not the sort of thing that the stars would care about.Β  There must be something special about this particular case.

But it definitely happens on Monday, because that arrangement falls apart quickly, and there’s nothing else interesting happening until next week (next week from the point of view of when this is published).

Aries:Β  King of Coins reversed – Vice, weakness, ugliness, perversity, corruption, peril.

Virgo:Β  Ace of Coins reversed – The evil side of wealth, bad intelligence

Libra:Β  The Lovers reversed – Failure, foolish designs, marriage frustrated and contrarieties of all kinds.

Scorpio:Β  5 of Wands reversed – Litigation, disputes, trickery, contradiction.

Sagittarius:Β  10 of Cups – Contentment, repose of the entire heart; the perfection of that state; also perfection of human love and friendship

Capricorn:Β  7 of Swords reversed – Good advice, counsel, instruction, slander, babbling.

Aquarius:Β  The Hermit – Prudence, circumspection, treason, dissimulation, roguery, corruption.

Pisces:Β  Knight of Coins reversed -Inertia, idleness, repose of that kind, stagnation, placidity, discouragement, carelessness

    • TARDis

      Ugh. I think I’ll just go back to bed.

      I already know I’m not getting any stimy dough, and now I’m stupid too? Dammit!

    Hahahahahaha!

    Now you’re just making shit up.

    • Chafed

      I should have read the comments before posting my comment.

  3. Scruffy Nerfherder

    Capricorn: 7 of Swords reversed – Good advice, counsel, instruction, slander, babbling.

    In other words, I’m going to spend too much time on the internet this week.

    • Plinker762

      It says good advice. That doesn’t sound like browsing the internet.

  4. Mojeaux

    Taurus: Wheel of Fortune reversed – Increase, abundance, superfluity.

    We have been very fortunate indeed this last year in many ways, but if the universe is handing more out, I’ll take it!

    @’splosives, How’s your hubster?

    • Toxteth O'Grady

      IF she should need any local help and IF I have to dash off today without seeing her here first, would someone tell her I left my number in the forum the other day?

      IF I am here during business hours I am probably procrastinating.

    Sagittarius: 10 of Cups – Contentment, repose of the entire heart; the perfection of that state; also perfection of human love and friendship

    I don’t believe a bloody word of this.

    • Ownbestenemy

      About the most foreign view of a Sag. Except the love part.

    • l0b0t

      I can’t even with this nonsense.

      Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner – Aspects of black actor Sidney Poitier’s films that are oriented primarily to white audiences

      Who do these people think were attending the movie houses?

      Stagecoach – Portrayal of Native Americans and their being seen as a threat

      They very much were a threat and I would see that as a point of pride.

      Psycho – Transgender identity and the implications of equating and dressing in women

      There were no transgender people or concepts in this film at all. Transvestites /= transgender individuals and the conflation of the two is annoying.

      • Toxteth O'Grady

        Ted to the white courtesy phone…

      • Ted S.

        There were no transgender people or concepts in this film at all.

        Yes and no. The psychiatrist at the end explains that Norman wasn’t a transvestite, at least not in the sense of somebody dressing in the clothing of the opposite sex for the sexual pleasure that it brings. Instead [SPOILERS, although you know the ending], Norman became his mother, in the sense that the mother side of his brain took over. (Why, I won’t even hurt this fly! I’ll show them!) But, at the same time, Norman definitely wasn’t transgender in the sense that it would be used today. Norman was his mother in the sense that other crazy people think they’re Napoleon or somesuch.

        (Are you happy now, Toxteth?)

      • Ted S.

        Oh, and I wrote that before reading the article at the link. The author says pretty much the same thing.

      • Ted S.

        The author, however, does get Rope wrong in my opinion. Disregarding the fact that it was released in the late 1940s, it’s pretty darn clearly based on the Leopold and Loeb case (as is the Orson Welles movie Compulsion, which I think is currently in the FXM Retro rotation), and they were definitely gay. It was a sort of open secret that the two characters in Rope were supposed to be gay, but that this couldn’t really be mentioned because of the Production Code. In fact, the movie is better for the homosexuality being an open secret rather than being openly mentioned. We don’t need to be hit over the head with it.

      • Gustave Lytton

        We don’t need to be hit over the head with it.

        Something TNG writers could have used more of.

      • Toxteth O'Grady

        Why, yes. Thank you ever so. πŸ˜‰

        Freudianism was in vogue at the time.

      • Ted S.

        Something made even more explicit at the beginning of Spellbound.

        Having read the article and the comments, I enjoyed (in the ironic way) the projection from the people who disagreed with the thrust of the article that they’re just being tolerant to the minorities of today and not wanting to censor at all, nosiree.

      • Toxteth O'Grady

        Never saw that one, ugh. Should take this over to forum sometime.

      • Toxteth O'Grady

        Was the latest technology, bless their hearts.

    • Toxteth O'Grady

      Robert Osborne sadly missed.

      • rhywun

        It was a simpler less fucking irritating time.

    • Scruffy Nerfherder

      There are a couple of things that strike me here. First is the whole idea that we, the general thicko public, need to have these films contextualised by people who are cleverer than us, lest we don’t spot the dodgy representations. This whole argument has always been about more than people being offended – there is a sense of fretting over the wrong people seeing these films and not understanding why they are bad. Showing them with a serious finger-wagging beforehand is an insult to the viewer, but it sums up the attitude of many who want to tell us what we can or cannot watch. Censors of all kinds are essentially patriarchal snobs who think that they are smarter than the rest of us.

      THIS RIGHT HERE

      • Muzzled Woodchipper

        ONLY US, THE ENLIGHTENED ONES, HAVE THE INTELLECTUAL AND MORAL CAPACITY TO GUIDE YOU THROUGH DR. SEUSS.

      Well done Q! really pretty ladies, not too much ink,

    • Muzzled Woodchipper

      Gotta give mad respect to 10 for the stripper pole in the bedroom.

      That kind of dedication is lacking these days.

      • TARDis

        LOL. Made me look!

      • westernsloper

        Your horoscope should be: You will see what you want to see.

    • commodious spittoon

      marriage frustrated

      What about us bachelor Libras, is this week’s horoscope the marital equivalent of this strip?

  9. CPRM

    For those of you concerned by my post about numbness in feet (many of whom for years have called me an asshole because I said I won’t take off my shoes in some one else’s house because I can’t walk right without shoes because my feet are numb). It’s not the beetus. Stop worrying about that. I have talked to my doctor about it previously. (I don’t know if it’s the same doctor I’m seeing now, my memory is shit). It has gotten slightly worse recently, and if I remember I will bring it when I see my doc this week. But, it does often slip my mind, because over all it isn’t that significant.

    For those of you who haven’t followed along (Lady Z seems to have been the only one to have gotten my message, but Digby would have too if he were still around) The fear is that this may be MS, like my dad had. Those of you who have been reading my posts long enough will know how traumatic his death was for me and how much I gave up to take care of him. He had a wife and 5 kids before he was diagnosed. I just have a cartoon 50-100 people watch…so I’m sure you can see how worrying about getting an actual diagnosis could be a depressing thing for someone who is already on the edge of depression. Sure, as Lady Z assures me, their have been medical advancements in the years since, but still, I don’t have anyone but you internet weirdos to support me. It’s depressing.

    BTW, NEW CARTOON tomorrow night!

    • Toxteth O'Grady

      No offense meant. Take it as a compliment. Every day someone here has a new serious complaint.

      • Toxteth O'Grady

        (ah wasnae even on tha Zoom)

      • CPRM

        I never said you were, I never even mentioned Zoom! LoBot did on the last page…Are you somehow able to put 2 and 2 together to make 4?! Witch!

      • Toxteth O'Grady

        Excu-u-use me for paying attention!

      • Plinker762

        AKA stalking

      • CPRM

        I know you weren’t meaning to be offensive, just wanted to nip this in the bud. Some other folks have taken their ‘concerns’ to threatening levels.

      • Mojeaux

        Yanno, I don’t know what “threatening levels” means, but maybe people really are concerned and don’t know how to express it very well.

      • Muzzled Woodchipper

        I’m convinced even for the concerned who can’t express it very well, brandishing swords is a bad way to go.

      • Mojeaux

        Wait, what?

      • Muzzled Woodchipper

        One needn’t rehash that episode, especially because as you note it was done out of concern, but yes.

      • The Hyperbole

        I think you can take him.

      • Mojeaux

        Ah. Um. Okay then.

    • Yusef drives a Kia

      Hang in there C! We need you! every time I read your posts i think of them in your Voice,
      God Bless you man,

    • westernsloper

      I can relate to foot numbness. But I get it in one foot, as well as shooting pain down that legs calf sometimes debilitating. It sucks. I hope you and your doc can figure your issue out CP. You are too young for that shit.

      • CPRM

        You have Deep Vein Thrombosis! Get thee to a Nunnery Doctor!

      • Yusef drives a Kia

        I believe it may be the Bodily humours, maybe a good bleeding will help,,,,

      • CPRM

        I really wish there was an Arnold Swartzinagger clip I could link, but I don’t think that movie exists anymore, because it is too offensive.

      • commodious spittoon

        Surely Kindergarten Cop is safe while Junior still exists.

      • Ted S.

        Nah, it’s definitely lupus.

      • westernsloper

        Maybe? Who knows. Doc is convinced it is sciatic nerve related. MRI confirms numerous issues with my lower spine. It is hammered dog shit. I had to cut my bike ride short this morning because I had to walk. Steep to me hill. I am fine if I don’t have to walk which is a problem since I walk all day every day. It sucks.

      • CPRM

        I bet it’s the beetus, better get that checked out, or I’ll stab your with a sword! and if you buy me a drink you you’re a sexist, if you don’t you’re killing afghans!

      • westernsloper

        I like beets. Especially pickled beets.

      • Toxteth O'Grady

        In the calf? How far does it start and stop?

      • westernsloper

        Sometimes it starts in the glute, shoots down the back of the leg and cramps the calf. Mostly muscle fatigue feeling and numbness in the foot. I am sooooo done with it, there is stuff I want to do and this shit aint helping.

      • westernsloper

        Right now the pain has moved around to my shin.

      • Toxteth O'Grady

        Sounds sciatic all right. Not sure what to say besides explore all options.

      • Muzzled Woodchipper

        Hip stretches work wonders for sciatic nerve stuff, in my experience.

      • Chafed

        Stretch regularly and hang on an inversion bar. My back is gone when I do them.

      • westernsloper

        I started stretching last week. I am, well, a knotted up mess. After CP’s link below I am now checking other things.

      • Scruffy Nerfherder

        We need more PSAs like that.

        I might actually pay attention.

    • Scruffy Nerfherder

      It’s definitely the diabeetus.

    Gemini: 3 of Wands – Established strength, enterprise, effort, trade, commerce, discovery;

    I am not buying that for a minute.

  11. TARDis

    So the Suez is still clogged up like my bowels were last Summer. Which horoscope is the person’s responsible, I wonder.

    • CPRM

      Trump is a Gemini: Gemini: 3 of Wands – Established strength, enterprise, effort, trade, commerce, discovery;

      Sounds like another impeachment.

      • Toxteth O'Grady

        double secret impeachment!

  12. Chafed

    “Sagittarius: 10 of Cups – Contentment, repose of the entire heart; the perfection of that state; also perfection of human love and friendship.” Now you’re just making it up.

  13. Dr. Fronkensteen

    The evil side of wealth. What does that mean? Monkey knife fights? Buying politicians?

    A woman kicking some guy to the curb because he’s a liar is an excessively common event, ….

    Kamala takes over because Joe lied about having his faculties?

    • CPRM

      Kamala takes over because Joe lied about having his faculties? that was the plan.

  15. UnCivilServant

    Slept in late. Made French toast for the first time for years, possibly decades. Turned out perfect.

    So long as I don’t fixate on losing half the day to sleep, its a decent start.

      I read the HL part.

    • Mojeaux

      They have turned a simple order-online-and-pick-up for a bag of potting soil into a major chore.

      I thought it would take a few minutes. Instead, it’s taken hours and hours. I ordered it at 3:00 p.m. yesterday. Here, now, almost 12 hours later, it is ready for pickup.

  19. Lord Humungus

    EF and I have a new video out, visiting a graveyard, where the Green Lady “haunts”.

  20. The Late P Brooks

    The price of lumber is redonkulous. Thanks Biden!

    I think our pal Trump gets at least partial credit for that.

    • The Hyperbole

      Presidents get too much credit/blame for the economy but yeah lumber prices have been rising for a while now.

    • westernsloper

      Wrong. He is not in charge anymore so now everything is Bidens fault just like everything was Trumps fault.
