NEW SIGN? HOROSCOPE THAT IS?
THE OLD SONG " BORN UNDER A BAD SIGN",
WELL MINE SAID:
TAXI!!!
Born Under A Bad Sign
by CREAM
Born under a bad sign
I been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck,
I wouldn't have no luck at all
Hard luck and trouble is my only friend
I been on my own ever since I was ten
Born under a bad sign
I been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck,
I wouldn't have no luck at all
I can't read, haven't learned how to write
My whole life has been one big fight
Born under a bad sign
I been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck,
I wouldn't have no luck at all
I ain't lyin'
If it wasn't for bad luck
I wouldn't have no kind-a luck
If it wasn't for real bad luck,
I wouldn't have no luck at all
Wine and women is all I crave
A big legged woman is
gonna carry me to my grave
Born under a bad sign
I been down since I begin to crawl
If it wasn't for bad luck,
I wouldn't have no luck at all
Yeah, my bad luck boy
Been havin' bad luck all of my days, yes
I PUT LITTLE IF ANY STOCK IN HOROSCOPES OR LUCK.
I'M A FECES, BTW!
I'M A FECES, BTW!
MY FATE LIES IN THE HANDS OF GOD AND MY DECISIONS BASED ON WISDOM AND KNOWLEDGE GAINED FROM HIM....AND THE PROPER APPLICATION OF THAT WISDOM & KNOWLEDGE..., NOT LUCK !
I THINK WE CONTROL MORE OF OUR DESTINY THAN WE GIVE OURSELVES CREDIT FOR, OR CONVERESLY BLAME ON "BAD LUCK". LET'S WO/MAN UP, AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR OUR ACTIONS OR INACTION'S.
OR NOT!
PS: MY HOROSCOPE SAYS I'M STILL A LEO- THE FIRST DAY OF THE NEW EASTERN HOROSCOPE: AUG 1OTH.
AREN'T MOST SO GENERIC THAT YOU CAN READ ALMOST ANYTHING INTO THEM AND MAKE THEM FIT?
I DO THINK THE PERSONALITY TRAITS ARE PRETTY CLOSE, BUT I CAN'T SEE ME LIVING MY LIFE BASED ON HOROSCOPES.
HAVING SAID THAT: TWO PARTICULAR ONES- WERE INCREDIBLY ACCURATE AND SPECIFIC!! COINCIDENCE?
WITHIN ONE HOUR OF RETURNING FROM THE CARDIOLOGIST WONDERING HOW WE WERE GOING TO FARE, WHEN MY WORK DISABILITY RUNS OUT--THE DR. I VOLUNTEERED FOR CALLED ME AND ASKED IF I WAS READY TO COME BACK!!!!!
I AM GOING TO START AGAIN WITH MEDMISSIONS, VOLUNTEERING (4 DAYS A MONTH INSTEAD OF THE 2 WE INITIALLY DID.) IT HAS GROWN THAT MUCH!. I HAD TO TAKE A BREAK FOR A WHILE, DUE TO HEALTH, BUT I FEEL SO GREAT NOW!
THAT MY FRIENDS IS GOD, FATE, KISMET, KARMA, AND
THAT MY FRIENDS IS GOD, FATE, KISMET, KARMA, AND
GOOD LUCK! ;-) !!
THIS ALSO MAY LEAD TO A PAYING JOB IN THE FUTURE! PER THE DOC!
OR NOT.
REGARDLESS: GOD IS IN TOTAL CONTROL OF MY LIFE!
BUT THAT'S JUST MY TAKE.
WHAT IS YOURS ON HOROSCOPES/NUMEROLOGY, ETC?

Me personally John, I don't think that spirit wants to be in control of my life. In Christian terms why would he have sacrificed his son to take control when the whole idea was freedom from the laws of Moses.
ReplyDeleteNo I think like you said I will be responsible for my own actions. How is that possible if someone else is in the drivers seat? Think more of your self as Don John and that spirit is your consigliere.
You get good practical advice but you have to choose to follow it eh?
Mark,
ReplyDeleteI agree totally. My phraseology was terrible. God is only in total control because I yield that to Him.
Willingly. Is works for me and is my beacon--my light.
His wisdom and Guidance sets ME free, to follow or not. And the cool thing is- like you said--it's Under GRACE- NOT LAW that the freedom reigns. We impose much stricter "laws" upon ourselves through guilt than God would ever do.
If Jesus IS the Truth, the WAY and The Life, and the Truth shall set you free...then we are Free Will agents. I personally choose to allow the Spirit of God to lead and guide me. To hear that voice--I must be quiet and learn to listen....like fine tuning a Radio station and getting the static as low as possible. And that still small voice is usually my gut or conscience guiding me.
And boy do I ever Blow it and not follow it all the time. But like you said--that's our choice..right, wrong or indifferent.
I like the concierge analogy. And Jesus also called us Friends. And friends advise, but if you don't follow--they still LOVE you. At least TRUE friends.
Others find and listen to a totally different station, to guide them.--but I think the truth is universal. Basic Respect and Tolerance for all belief systems- except for the ones born out of pure hatred and corruption.
Thanks for a great comment!

I think astrology and numerology are people's attempts to see order in the cosmos. They saw the stars as having a predictable pattern. And with the patterns, predictable things, like seasons, happened on earth. Perhaps because of some coincidences, they believed that the stars controlled the seasons and things that happened when really, they are just like clocks ticking and marking the time. Easy mistake.
ReplyDeleteNumerology I don't know. There are definitely numbers in the bible that are special for some reason and that has lead to Jewish numerology. I don't know how far they go and how wrong it is. But it sounds like people wanting to tell the future by what happened in the past.
I believe that my life is in my hands, but somedays, I am not sure which path to follow and on these days, I like to read my horoscope just to see if there is a sign in there - there usually is but it is all down to interpretation :P
ReplyDeleteI put my faith in God, not star signs.
ReplyDeleteJeannie-- always SPOT on per usual! Great stuff!
ReplyDeleteJ
La Cremiere- good stuff. I think that's a neat way to look at it. Sometimes- life is Faith (or lack of it- if you wish) wandering--not knowing where in the heck we are going!!! It just is!And if we learn to enjoy EACH step--we have a LEG UP--ar ar on most!
God comment!

LL COOL-- Joe-
Amen Bro-- Amen. Me too. He effected such a "personal change" in me, that I know it's for me.
John
I love that song!!! Eric Clapton is outstanding!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteKay-- I love Clapton, and have just re- or maybe really discovered Blues for the first time. I know this one was Rock--but a Lot of Blues Players played this song!
ReplyDeleteJohn
I don't visit psychics and I don't read horrorscopes...unless they're funny and silly and make me giggle. Some are meant to be humorous and I'll read those.
ReplyDeleteI realize some horoscopes can be accurate, but more times than not they can apply to just about anyone.
God is looking our for you, my friend. There's no doubt about that. :)
Cheers and hugs from tu amiguita!
LuLu-- You are THE BEST!!!!!!
