Practical Day-to-Day Astrology

__________________________________________________________________

In my very long practice, I have found that most astrologers, tarot card readers, psychics, clairvoyants, etc. focus on the big things happening, like divorce, health, loss of job, but not on those small irritating ones, or the small joys, that you may have in life.

__________________________________________________________________

That's all well and fine, but there are times when I really want to know.....

• If my boss is going to belly out on me when I've done nothing
  
• When a customs official will delay me for sheer nuisance and make me miss my next plane
  
• Why the hell my colleague is throwing a tantrum at me
  
• Why my married boyfriend is strange tonight when I have been nice, put a lovely dinner together, dressed in black undies
  
• When I'm going to get paid my next writing assignment, even if it's only 18.34 dollars
  
• If I ought to put my sexiest swimming suit to go to the town pool since the weather is gorgeous (in case there's a beautiful man to rinse my eyes on there) or whether the old suit at the bottom of my cupboard will do (since I have failed to do the wash this week).
  
• Do I really need to do the dishes this Saturday in case my parents show up or if I can play couch potato instead
  
• If now is the good time to buy renovating materials (not just for cheap money, but for taste)
  
• If the guy who showed up as an electrician will do the job properly
  
• If the bad weather forecast will result in having a tree falling on my lawn (perhaps no-one will be killed, but who's going to pay to chop it to pieces) or if the tree will fall on my house (in which case I might be well advised to up my home insurance.
  
• When to avoid mixing paints together or not to do any water piping work at home
  
• When to buy a gift for mother-in-law

AND SO ON and SO FORTH you get the gist?

Staff Hired by Zodiac sign

Here is an article about an Austrian insurance company which wants to hire staff based on their astrological sign:  http://tinyurl.com/b6rj6v

The company says it has done statistics in-house and found the best workers to be Capricorn, Taurus, Aquarius, Aries and Leo.

That's 5/12th of the zodiac, almost half of it... Could the world be divided roughly in half? The first half that works well, the second half consisting of neer-do-wells?

How will they distribute office space? Give one office for a lone Aquarius, dump Taurus and Capricorn together, and Aries and Leo together. Or, at a pinch, they could put Aquarius with Aries, but that would leave Leo on his own. Unless the company is pretty good at allocating office space, the profit margin is going to dwindle to zero.

Why not go a step further and fire the other sun signs, I ask you? I'd like to see how the company could be doing without the perhaps less obviously productive but diligent and behind-the-shadows workers belonging to the other signs of the Zodiac.

It's one thing being aware of one's colleague or boss sun-sign and adapt one's behavior to it, and it's quite another to hire only specific sun signs. Perhaps one should tell this company that since many Pisces are angry with maths, it should not have wanted to hire Albert Einstein who was Pisces?

Seriously, I know my astro, my sun signs, their strengths and weaknesses, but I do believe they should hire a decent astrologer to do detailed analyses of the prospective staff to hire and not base their recruiting campaign on signs alone.

I wonder what sun sign is the CEO for this company?
