the other press The Oracle January 22, 2003 schoolofthoth@yahoo.com The translation of the astrological language for the twelve zodiac signs. The month of Aquarius is upon us. The first few days are of friends and dreams, so put on your daydreaming hat and create within your own fantasy world. If you haven't had a chance to explore your imagination and the freedom associated with it, now is the chance to do so. Sit back and create within your mind a place of calm and rest, a place where you can go within at any moment and dream your goals. How do they look? See within your mind anything you can imagine. In general, the month looks good. Everything seems to be flowing rather nice- Aries Take a mental note that the month of Aquarius is a good month for you. Two things can happen in this month.
