Suckered by the Universe

The world is changed. I feel it in the water.........

I can't seem to get Lord of the Rings out of my head lately. They are playing it over and over again on cable...so that could be part of the problem....but when I am having a life moment...I like to recall familiar lines that seem relevant.

And saying "the world is changed. I feel it in the water" seems appropriate right now.

I'm also still loving to say....."I have no memory of this place" also from LOTR. It is a line that applies to a multitude of situations...and can relieve tense moments when said out loud.

Anyway...back to the original intent........the world is changed. I feel it in the water.

I'm not going to deny that it is entirely possible I am experiencing some sort of mid life crisis. With the birthday just passed.....and a new year just begun....it makes a person reflect.

I have been reflecting. I have also been a bit torn. Just struggling with some life decisions and choices.

On my birthday, I received a free tarot reading.

That was some scary shit.

My good friend Andi can tell you, that in a moment of life crisis, I love a good tarot reading.

I can analyze that crap for hours. Much to my own harm probably.

I held onto the reading for a day or two, read it about 50 times, then finally threw it away.

A few days later, another crisis hit when someone on Facebook posted a link that said our zodiac signs were all jacked up. Suddenly I was no longer a Capricorn but a Sagittarius. That freaked me out. But all is well. It turns out I am still a Capricorn. Phew.

So then, yesterday comes.....I receive an email of all things with some sort of 2011 reading. I don't know where this stuff comes from.....but I get suckered in and read it.

It turns out that cosmically speaking, this is going to be a very eventful year for me!

(shuh....I totally knew that! the world is changed. I feel it in the water!!!)

Apparently something truly exceptional is going to happen to me this year. And I am going to witness 4 separate events that will have a profound impact on me.

The first one on January 4th.....ummmm, January 4th is over. I don't recall an event occurring.

The second one - (this is my favorite one) will occur between January 22nd and the 4th of June. kind of a long window for an event.

The third one will occur on March 11th. I am considering taking this day off so I can witness the event.

and the 4th one will occur in early summer - which is to say the first part of July.

As I read...as was totally sucked in.

In each of these 4 periods a very unusual and special event will occur that will have repercussions that impact 2011 and the rest of my life. Apparently the event between January 22nd and June 4th is major. It is described as the most intense event.

I'm kind of scared.

In addition to life events....I am scheduled to have some pretty impactful encounters with people.

There is one person who is bad, bad, bad and I have to avoid.

But there is another person that is going to come into my life that is good, good, good. I hope I don't avoid the wrong person!!!!

The thing went on and on about all of my major life changes.

And being the mid-life-sucker-idiot-indecisive person that I am.....I totally paid for another analysis. I have NEVER done that.

I was totally sucked in.

They give me a free tarot reading.

A free mini astro chart....

and suddenly I am spending my own money for a deeper look inside.

I can only hope that after spending my hard earned money so stupidly, I can get my own brain around some of my real life dilemmas.

Perhaps as I peruse my astrological chart......I can then take my next few dollars and plunk it down for a therapist.

Because......the world is changed. I feel it in the water.

Something is coming.
