Another fun thread! I'm a Libra. Actually, a double-Libra. Many years ago I read the best ever astrology book, it was Linda Goodman's Bedside Astrologer, I think. Anyway, there was the greatest story in there that gave a really cool description of each of the zodiac signs. Does anyone have the book that could copy that story for me? It's a story I tell people all the time.
Basically, there's a group of 12 women sitting in a circle, one from each sign of the zodiac. The hostess asks each person to talk about how they feel about old-fashioned calling cards. I guess way before phones were invented, well-to-do folks would have custom calling cards printed, and when they wanted a visit, they'd send their butler or runner to deliver these calling cards as an invitation to "come calling."
So the hostess asked each person their opinion on calling cards. I only remember a few of the responses, and it's amazing how they are so much like the friends in my life who share the signs. Here's the responses I remember:
Gemini says, "Calling cards? How much do they cost?"
In my experience, Geminis are the penny pinchers of the zodiac, so I thought that was an accurate response.
Aquarian's response, "Is that thunder I hear?"
This one cracks me up because I'm married to an Aquarian, who are famous for being perpetually "out to lunch" and in a world of their very own.
Sagitarrius, "Who the hell has time for calling cards?"
Virgo (the critical perfectionist) Well, naturally, as long as they are gilded in gold.
Libra goes on for pages & pages & analyzes till everyone falls asleep. Did I mention I'm a Libra?
Has anyone seen this? I'd love a copy.
