IFLA: The “It’s Warming Up” Edition of the Horoscope for the Week of April 16

by | Apr 16, 2023 | IFLA | 36 comments

Sometimes it’s too hot to do much other than rest in the shade

Aries’ time finishes out generally nicely.  Nothing too major predicted, just the Earth-Moon pair hooking up with a few planets as they dance.

Monday isn’t great with a warning about damage to the domicile (Saturn).  Thursday is one of those “Good Day, Not Otherwise Specified,” (Sun) and Saturday is date night (Venus).

Taurus is going to start things off with a bang, but that’s next week.

And the bout begins.. interrupted!

Aries: Temperance reversed – Excess.

Taurus: 7 of Coins – Projects coming to fruition.

Gemini: 9 of Swords reversed – Dread of a horrible incident you have so far avoided.

Cancer: 6 of Wands – Good news celebration, everybody getting along because things are going well.

Leo: Knight of Cups reversed – Hucksters, false prophets, catfishers.

Virgo: The Chariot reversed – Progress stalled. Bigly.

Libra: 10 of Swords – A celebration… at your expense.

Sagittarius: The High Priestess reversed – A source of support, information or comfort removes themselves from you.

Capricorn: 5 of Cups – Missed opportunity, focusing excessively on the negative.

Aquarius: 3 of Coins – Mediocrity, failure to impress, loss in a competition.

Pisces: Queen of Swords reversed – Bitch supreme.

    So as a Scorpio, I guess I get to take the week off?

  2. Gender Traitor

    …and Scorpio has been downsized from the zodiac. 😢

    I’m not knowing about horoscopes but looking out the window at 4 inches of fresh snow and more to come I can tell which way the wind is blowing

    • Tundra

      No more snow, dammit. It’s springtime!

      • Zwak tastes the soup, but never counts the beans.

        Here it is rain, but, by god, are Oregonians sick of it this year.

      • Gustave Lytton

        I’m so far behind on outside cleanup. Just hasn’t been dry enough so the ground stays saturated. I mowed yesterday and it was like mud bogging.

      • slumbrew

        I sanded down two of the four chairs yesterday – and I have no idea when I’ll get the other two plus a good 12 hours of dry weather for the teak oiling.

        New England springs, man…

      • Gustave Lytton

        Yeah, sanded yesterday too. Closet shelving so the bedroom project can be wrapped up. I need to build an outdoor cover or buy one a pop up canopy to keep up next year. Even the indoor stuff gets behind for stuff I hate making a mess in the garage for.

      • Gustave Lytton

        You should like my wife after I mentioned there’s snowflakes in the forecast for Monday night.

      • Shirley Knott

        Yeah. We hit 84 yesterday. Tomorrow is a high of 38 and snow showers. Michigan is psycho.

    • Animal

      We’re finally getting some thawing here in the Great Land, after 6-8″ of white stuff last Monday and Tuesday. With a bit of luck our snow will all be gone by June 1st.

    • Toxteth O'Grady

      You’re closer to the next HH than the last one is behind you, and thus shall it be until September.

  4. Tundra

    Lily must be throwing coat like mad.

    Leo: Knight of Cups reversed – Hucksters, false prophets, catfishers.

    Apparently politicians are in my future.

  5. The Late P Brooks

    Sagittarius: The High Priestess reversed – A source of support, information or comfort removes themselves from you.

    Haha, joke’s on you. That happened quite a while ago.

  6. The Late P Brooks

    I’m not knowing about horoscopes but looking out the window at 4 inches of fresh snow and more to come I can tell which way the wind is blowing

    Don’t need a weatherman?

  7. Not Adahn

    Scorpio gets the 3 of Coins: Your work is noticed and evaluated.

    • Gender Traitor

      Woo hoo! My boss will finally actually do the annual evaluation for which I’ve received the “score” and corresponding pay raise! 😃

      Thanks, NA! 😁

    • Grumbletarian

      I interviewed for a different position that I indicated I would want a promotion to take. It’s within the same workgroup, so upper management knows me and have been impressed with what I’ve done since I started with the company, so …maybe?

  8. Not Adahn

    Back from a hike. Unfortunately for this route, the water closest to the trailhead was a shallow, mud-bottomed creek.

    Aries: Temperance reversed – Excess.

    I’ll drink to that. Later.

    • Animal

      I’ve half decided I need one of these.

      • The Bearded Hobbit

        Animal, if you’re still around.

        Can all 45 Colt guns fire .410?

      • Fourscore

        .410 shells are too long for the Vaquero but there is one, the “Judge” maybe, that had an accommodating long cylinder for .410s

      • The Bearded Hobbit

        Thanks, 4×20. I knew about the Judge and I had a derringer that took both. I didn’t know if it was universal.

      • Fourscore

        Too bad the supply is limited, every Glib could use one. It’s going to have a big bark in a small package.

      • Sean

        I’m not stocking another caliber.

      • Fourscore

        45 Winc mag and a 44 Rem mag are enough. I wouldn’t mind a 41 Rem mag revolver though

    • Gustave Lytton

      The FN Reflex looks like another metoo. Pistol styling is going the way of automotive design.

      • Gustave Lytton

        On the plus side, at the sporting goods store last weekend, the missus said out of the blue ‘let’s go look at the guns’. She wants a shottie and a rifle for plinking.

      JUDGE ORDERS HIM TO PARROT ‘MEDICAL EXPERTS’ FROM PULPIT

      Wow. They really have lost the plot up there.

  10. Mojeaux

    Taurus: 7 of Coins – Projects coming to fruition.

    YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY!!!

    • Fourscore

      It ain’t the horoscope, Moj, it’s you that is pulling all the pieces together. Good deal, Lucille

  11. Toxteth O'Grady

    I didn’t realize until recently that there was audio to go with the dog videos.
