a guilty pleasure

Para todos los que nacieron bajo el signo de la virginidad, les guste o no yo sé que alguna vez habrán leído su horoscopo, aquí lo que de acuerdo con The Village Voice les corresponde para esta semana

VIRGO (Aug. 23–Sept. 22):My old philosophy professor Norman O. Brown would periodically interrupt his lectures, tilt his head upward as if tuning in to the whisper of some heavenly voice, and announce in a mischievous tone, "It's time for your irregular reminder: We're already living after the end of the world. No need to fret anymore." The implication was that the worst had already happened. We had already lost most of the cultural riches that had given humans meaning for centuries. All that was going to be taken from us had already been taken. On the bright side, that meant we were utterly free to reinvent ourselves. Living amid the emptiness, we had nowhere to go but up. What remained was alienating, but it was also fresh. Use these ideas as seeds for your meditations, Virgo. You can apply them to both your personal life and the world at large.
