ILFA: The “Apres la Niege, la Boue” Edition of the Horoscope for the Week of March 27

by | Mar 27, 2022 | IFLA | 71 comments

Ah, Spring! When a young dog’s heart turns to thoughts of mud.

 

This week we have a surprising amount of independent happenings in the sky, mainly driven by the Earth-Moon axis, the ending Mars-Venus conjunction, and the developing Venus-Saturn one.

Monday something happens that negatively affects your personal relationships.  Also on Monday you get a completely unrelated piece of good luck, plausibly related to authority structures or comedy clubs.  Sometime Monday or Tuesday-ish, something goes wrong with you domicile, likely plumbing-related, but its just a temporary problem.  It ends by Thursday.  Thursday is also an auspicious time to do household chores.

 

I’m going to see if Outdoor Dog magazine wants to buy this for their cover

 

 

Greetings, Aries!  Good tie to be a goat, huh?  At first glance this isn’t Aries year, but it is definitely their month since we’ve got Mercury in good luck mode entering at the most opportune time.  So enjoy the heck out of that.  The rest of the good planets are kind of dragging, most of them waaay back there in Aquarius still.

I’m not going to sugarcoat it.  These are some terrible cards.

Aries:  Queen of Swords reversed – Malice, bigotry, artifice, prudery, bale, deceit.

Taurus:  2 of Swords reversed – Vengeance, misguided violence.

Gemini:  The Devil – Ravage, violence, vehemence, extraordinary efforts, force, fatality.

Cancer:  Death – End, mortality, destruction, corruption also, for a man, the loss of a benefactor for a woman, many contrarieties; for a maid, failure of marriage projects.

Leo:  The Hanged Man reversed – Selfishness, the crowd, body politic.

Virgo:  Judgement reversed – Weakness, pusillanimity, simplicity, deliberation, decision, sentence.

Libra: Knight of Swords – Skill, bravery, capacity, defense, address, enmity, wrath, war, destruction, opposition, resistance, ruin.

Scorpio:  3 of Cups – The conclusion of any matter in plenty, perfection and merriment; happy issue, victory, fulfilment, solace, healing.

Sagittarius:  7 of Wands – Valor, discussion, wordy strife, negotiations, war of trade, barter, competition, success.

Capricorn:  Page of Wands – Dark young man, faithful, a lover, an envoy, a postman.

Aquarius:  Queen of Coins reversed – Evil, suspicion, suspense, fear, mistrust.

Pisces:  Temperance reversed – Churches, religions, sects, the priesthood, disunion, unfortunate combinations, competing interests.

 

Three quarters of one of Lily’s cliques: Duncan and Daisy. The dog in the background is new.

      And yes, your vet is an idiot.

      • rhywun

        TBF, it does look like Lily is carrying a little extra fluff.

  2. Mojeaux

    Taurus: 2 of Swords reversed – Vengeance, misguided violence.

    Are you KIDDING me with this.

    • hayeksplosives

      Embrace the violence.

      Whether it’s misplaced or not will work itself out later.

      • Mojeaux

        That assumes I’m the one doing the violence…

      • hayeksplosives

        Don’t wait passively to find out. Own the violence.

        (Disclaimer: I don’t believe in astrology; that’s a common trait among Aries)

      • rhywun

        Aries in the hooouuuuse!

      • Ted S.

        Hayeksplosives says X96.9XXA.

      • Mojeaux

        I’ve almost finished my first module (of 4), by the way.

      • hayeksplosives

        LOLs

    • rhywun

      When is my industry going to get a $52,000,000,000 gift from the taxpayers?

  3. DEG

    Selfishness, the crowd, body politic.

    Hmm… I guess this is shitty.

    • pistoffnick the refusnik

      Steaks look undercooked. /ducks
      And that utensil needs a fart can.

  4. Tundra

    The vet thinks this is an overweight dog

    Can you feel her ribs? She sure doesn’t look it, but as a veteran of many bigger dogs, keeping them lean does wonders for their health and longevity.

    Leo: The Hanged Man reversed – Selfishness, the crowd, body politic.

    Buckle up!

    • Fourscore

      She is not overweight, she’s a Husky

    “Virgo: Judgement reversed – Weakness, pusillanimity, simplicity, deliberation, decision, sentence.”
    So this is the week it all catches up to me?
    /12 Dollars

    • hayeksplosives

      Better than 30 pieces of silver.

      • Yusef drives a Kia

        Thanks! Digging the Avatar.

    • Ted S.

      /12 Dollars

      Apparently you’re not going downtown.

      • TARDis

        Yes we are, to jail, where we only get $12. ?

  6. Tulip

    Gemini: fatality? Really? Yikes!

  7. hayeksplosives

    “Good to be a goat”?!?!?

    GOAT?!? Have you no pride in your fucking profession/hobby?

    Aries is the Ram, the big-horned sheep.

    Capricorns are the goat/fish mashup.

    Imma go bang up some other Aries now.

  8. Fourscore

    “Have you no pride in your fucking profession/hobby?”

    I was always an amateur, I didn’t know guys could get paid for it. Sort of a hobby, never good enough to be a pro, needed more practice. (According to some)

  9. Ted S.

    Nice dog butt in the final picture.

  10. hayeksplosives

    Myers-Briggs Personality Type Indicator test >> astrology.

    Gauntlet thrown, bitches.

    (“Goat” indeed. Aries is a fucking Ram!! Is NotAdahn a fucking city boy??!)

      • l0b0t

        Meh… The E-Meter already told me I have too many Thetans and I need to give all my money to David Miscavige as a prophylaxis against the return of Xenu.

      • rhywun

        Xenu comin’!

      • MikeS

        Hahahaha. I miss that.

      • MikeS

        I was thinking of this

      • hayeksplosives

        Secret Nazi President.

        The classics.

      • Yusef drives a Kia

        Architect

      • Yusef drives a Kia

        And damn if the profile doesn’t read me like a book.

    • rhywun

      PSA: Some of us don’t fit the hot-head Aries stereotype.

      • hayeksplosives

        I suppose I need to breathe slowly into a paper bag for a few minutes.

        I’m trying to come to grips with the fact that our Glib Astrologer in Residence doesn’t know a goat from a sheep. It shakes my faith in his craft, even though that craft is in itself charletonism. At least the ancient craft was self-consistent and knew a sheep from a goat.

        But it’s all good; Sunday is fish and chips day at the local Italian joint that was acquired by a British dude a couple of months ago.

        Cheerio!

      • rhywun

        I chose to read it as an oblique reference to G.O.A.T.

        But I kid. I do have a bit of a temper and my natural inclination is to swear like a fucking sailor when I’m not in polite company like here.

      • Animal

        …in polite company like here.

        Wait, what?

      • Ted S.

        He’s obviously referring to me.

      • hayeksplosives

        “But I kid”

        I see what you did there.

      • The Bearded Hobbit

        I chose to read it as an oblique reference to G.O.A.T.

        And *that* reference confused me for a while because the goat was what you got on “Let’s Make A Deal” when you didn’t win the car.

        “Tom Brady is the GOAT”

        “Tom Brady is the Booby Prize?”

      • Ted S.

        On Let’s Make a Deal, you got a zonk, not the prize.

  11. Sean

    It’s snowing. ?

  12. Scruffy Nerfherder

    Dark young man?

    These predictions are getting a little homo-erotic.

  13. The Late P Brooks

    The vet thinks this is an overweight dog

    She’s just big boned.

  14. The Late P Brooks

    Sagittarius: 7 of Wands – Valor, discussion, wordy strife, negotiations, war of trade, barter, competition, success.

    A place to call my own?

    *opens Zillow bookmark*

    • Chafed

      That sounds disgusting.

  15. The Late P Brooks

    Valor, discussion, wordy strife, negotiations

    Insulting low-ball offers are what I do.

    • Fourscore

      I low balled some property a few years back and apparently insulted the seller. He took the property off the market. OTOH I lowballed the property where I live now and we were able to open the discussion and come together with a satisfactory transaction price.

      I lowballed an adjacent piece of property and after some back and forth the realtor (friend and classmate) told me not to lose the deal for a few hundred dollars. He was right and we made the deal and I got to pay my friend his commission.

      It’s getting tougher now with the escalating real estate market. Seems like the asking price is the minimum opener.

  16. Aloysious

    Scorpio- don’t make me laugh.

  17. Draw Me Like One of Your Tulpae, Jack

    I get the feeling my recent horrorscopes refer to my dad’s wife

  19. Mojeaux

    Mr. Mojeaux won a gift card to Longhorn. It’s good food, but they tried to pass a strip steak off as a ribeye. They insisted it was a funnily cut ribeye. I’m not buying it. Still, it was damn near raw and delicious.

    • Sean

      I love it when you talk sexy talk.

      Reminds me, I gotta go bacon wrap those filets.

      • Mojeaux

        Now that I got my ulcers taken care of, I can go back to my first protein love: beef.

      • Tres Cool

    • R C Dean

      I’d rather have strip anyway (assuming its NY strip).
