02/03 PSYCHIC SEX IN THE CITY

I was at a wedding shower recently and over heard the bride to be reading aloud a Hallmark card some well-wished party attender had gifted the soon to be Mrs. It read; Women are from Venus, Men are just wrong.” I thought that statement was brilliantly put. It sure summed up my view of the entire male race. Yet, lately something has happened that is forcing me to change my position.

It’s a simple fact that I scare the shit out of most guys I meet. Nonetheless, I’ve still managed to have my share of boyfriends, bootie calls and one night stands. More than I would care to fess up too. Yet, at some anti-climatic point I took a long hard look and concluded that in the majority of my sexual experiences, the individuals that I was getting busy with, were getting a much better deal out of it than I. What’s a girl to do? As unfulfilling as this realization was, it still would never be enough to turn me Jessica Stein.

Although, about a decade ago I took this women’s spiritually inclined class on getting to know your body. In it I was unwilling forced to put my hand not only up another woman’s vagina but I had to find and feel her uterus too. Ewe, Double ewe. I mean I have no issues with the gender thing, a spirit is a spirit is a spirit…and when it comes down to it, that truly is what one is attracted to. I just damn well know from knowing myself; that burying my face in another woman’s shrubbery will never be in my future.

I look at client’s questions about love interests everyday, giving me quite the broad-spectrum view. Doing the work that I do…healing the fraught women who have screwed themselves up by getting involved with males they never should…Let’s just say that I wasn’t out there desperately seeking Mr. Right. Right, anyone who says they are not looking is so full of shit. I’ve looked. In fact I absolutely love the sport of male watching. Sometimes I feel like a kid window shopping a candy store chock full of men. Everyone appears so appealing as a pack. But when you single out individual stock, you see damage that’s occurred from mishandling and smell staleness from what’s picked over. I’m left with this nasty taste in my mouth that’s best evaluated: testosterone tends to come wrapped up in tightly sealed packages that contain life long healing projects within. Children I have to tell you that each of us have enough of our own issues to heal and crap to overcome, that signing up for ongoing delivery of this type of sugar rush is the last thing you want to be shopping for.

There has only been three times in my life when I looked at someone and instantaneously knew I had some romantic karmic connection. The first two taught me the exact meaning of what a life long healing project is. One has clung around my atmosphere for about 14 years now, while the other one has been programmed in and erased out of my cell phone for about five. I know the first one is gay, he doesn‘t. The second one, God when I think about it he just might be gay too, but that’s most likely my ego wanting that excuse. For all the times I cluelessly questioned if either of them loved me or If I would end up with one of these two, what the heck was I thinking?

Which brings me to time number three and that thing that is making me rethink all that I have previously thought. When a man is into you, you will know. You will know to the point that you won’t ever have to question him, yourself or a psychic. The fact that I am referring to him as a man is telling in itself. Anyone who knows me or who has previously read this column knows that up until this point I have only ever referred to men as boys. So this one is different. Way, different. He might just be the one who causes me to change my mantra that whoever I was looking for was where I was going, not where I was or had been.

One night I went to my fabulous friend Heather’s birthday dinner, sat down next to this incredible man and immediately knew where I wanted to go with him. Happily it was mutual and we have been going at it ever since. Where we go next, only time will tell. What I do know is that I have finally found an experience where I am getting an equal if not better end of the deal!

03/03 SPRING CLEANSING

You know those people who can eat and drink anything they want and never gain an ounce? I hate them. Okay I don’t actually hate them, but it’s just have a few issues with my teeth which I’m getting treated at Mentone dentists, but envy, I admit to that. Taking a gander at my peers, it appears that the clairvoyant standard package comes equipped with one defect. If you are blessed with the psychic reader gene, you somehow get passed over when they hand out the have an amazing body gene. Oh boy how lucky for me.

I don’t mean to sound bitter or complaining. I completely understand that with being psychic I need to have a body that is able to handle a lot of energy, which pretty much equals having a lot of body. (Again, woohoo for me.) I swear before I leave this planet I am going to conquer and win this battle with my body once and for all.

Being madly in like with someone who loves to party does wonders for ones waistline…NOT. So here I am a few months into my happy new relationship. I’m having the time of my life going out being wined and dined every night by my fabulous groovy man. When one morning I awoke with an all too familiar haze of head aching and hangovering. I made my way out of bed and nakedly stumbled over to the mirror where I could barely recognize the puffy person staring back at me. If my reflection wasn’t giving me the wake up call, my closet was, as I no longer fit into anything I owned.

Looking back, nourishing myself has been an issue. I grew up with a Jewish mother who was a gourmet chef. Every night she would whip up some extravagant feast in her seasoned wok without ever following a recipe. As yummy as it was, most of the time my mother’s pallet was too intense for my taste. I spent many a childhood dinner dissecting what was in front of me, picking out inedible chunks of fresh ginger, bark root or whatever cupboard stuffing and pantry fluff she decided to throw on in. This lead me to crave the most bland food possible. To this day I’ll choose macaroni and cheese over Chili Verde. I suppose in a way I rebelled against my mother by not learning how to cook, which unfortunately turned into not knowing how to feed myself. If one day in the future I am ever in the position of being someone’s mother, I pray that child rebels against me.

So, I have this body trainer friend who for the twelve years plus that I have known him has been trying to get me to do this lemonade diet thing. Maybe you’ve heard of it, it’s called the Master Cleanse. You basically consume nothing but fresh lemon juice, B grade maple syrup, cyanine pepper and water. That’s it, no food. The ingredients have everything you need to cleanse your body while maintaining perfect health. People have been known to stay on it for up to 40 days and even heal ulcers on it. I once saw Mr. pretty George Hamilton on some bad talk show claiming that he does it a few times a year.

With the reality of my situation feeling so incredibly polluted, I couldn’t put another anything unto my oral cavity. I was a walking talking pickled person from all that I had consumed. I needed a dose of divine intervention and this was going to be my liquid magic bullet. Little did my boyfriend know that he was about to lose his partner in dining and drinking crime.

A girlfriend of mine decided to cleanse with me. I was so excited, I started two days earlier than we planned. She crapped out on her first day, yet remarkably I stuck to it. For me the girl who can’t stay on a diet for longer than an hour, this was going to be the most disciplined thing I had ever done in my life. In fact while on the cleanse I went to parties where I watched (italics) everyone else eat and drink. Then just like that, ten whole surprisingly not that horrible days, and two colonics later, I was cleansed!

Speaking of colonics, yes, I know this is a gross subject, but if you’ve ever witnessed the grossness that comes out of you when you get one.. you won’t be able to go another minute without yearning to get one yesterday. Scary is when one discovers that our bodies can house this toxic brewing that is actively stewing within us. It’s a miracle that we can think straight (oh right we don’t always do that) or put our shoes on the right feet while dragging around baby Chernobyls within us. So you see when that gets washed out, our existence is literally a lot less shitty. (Okay I’ll stop with the visuals, but if just one of you decides to make an appointment to go get one after reading this, I’ve done my job here.)

When you do this cleansing thing you start to get pretty high. You start to feel like you are on a different plane of existence than the common folk, who eat and drink that thing you used to know called food. You start to feel so unstoppable that you start philosophizing crazy concepts and making difficult demands such as you’re never going to drink anything alcoholic ever again. You’re only going to consume fresh fruit and vegetable juices daily. You’re never going to smoke. If you’re not a smoker already, you’re not going to hang out around your smoker friends so you don’t pick up their second hand smoke. Why you’re not even going to take an over the counter or prescription drug ever again.

Then when you’re done. You have to deal with the depression of going back to consuming real food again. You start drinking tons of water and chomping on celery…Yet it doesn’t take that long until you find yourself out with your boyfriend in some happening restaurant ordering a glass of Cabernet…and some really well done French fries…starting the whole impure process over again. And that is just the way I like it.

How you cleanse:
ARIES: gets aggravated, irritated, and ornery, but stays on till the bitter end.
TAURUS: checks to see if the coast is clear, then does it without letting anyone know.
GEMINI: tries to cleanse by day, but end up parting by night.
CANCER: attempts to, but makes a ruckus, then blames someone else why they can’t.
LEO: announces on stage that they are going on hiatus to cleanse.
VIRGO: is the expert who has cleansed many times before but insists that it’s the first time.
LIBRA: spends all day looking in the mirror to see their progress.
SCORPIO: does it to increase their kundilini energy.
SAGITTARIUS: starts while taking up residence in a tree that’s about to be cut down.
CAPRICORN: over analyses the whole ordeal, never finding the time or space putting it off until tomorrow.
AQUARIUS: is so well organized that they diary each trip to the bathroom in detail.
PISCES: first figures out what it is, then questions if it’s beneficial.. In other words never does.

04/03 PARLEZ VOUS PSYCHIQUE

I have never been to France. At least in this body, in this lifetime. I have however psychically seen France through many client’s past life readings. But in actuality…all I really know about France is…French fries, French kissing and a few French men.

I have had a long time affair with someone French. His name was Fry, French Fry to be exact. Looking back, I have salivated over and swallowed some French fries that have tasted better than some of my romantic partners.

French fries don’t come from France. They originated in Belgium. The French call them pommes frites. Americans call them French fries because of how they are cut; as in French cut green beans. I think we should call French fries something more like raw oil saturated planks de potato. I mean you might as well just open up your mouth and pour the oil straight down your throat with how our frantic fast food chains and rushed restaurants serve them. I’ve been known to embarrass my dining companions by requesting that an order of limp fries be sent back to be properly cooked till hard and crisp. I worked as a waitress before. I know there is some sweaty short order cook who has furiously spit in my cuisine because I demanded that my fries be well done, while he just wanted to get on to his next order. If you are going to eat something so bad for your waistline to begin with, like you’re going to want to waste calories on this? (Yep, folks PsychicGirl even has issues with French fries.)

I also has an issue with accents. Actually, men with accents to get more specific. Maybe it’s something unconscious. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I was born a nice Jewish girl and nice Jewish girls really don’t dig extra skin…if you get my drift. I think what happen is that somewhere early in my sexual explorations I ended up equating accent to equal un-circumcision. Two painfully big and one painfully small baises (French for four letters that start with an F) is all it took for me to come (or should I say not come) to this unsatisfying climatic decision.

I once met this French guy who didn’t have an accent. He was a friend of my then boyfriend. God I thought he was hot. I kind of wanted him…or at least to kiss him. But I wasn’t about to cheat on the boyfriend. Plus Frenchy had a girlfriend too. After I broke up with the boyfriend, Frenchy and I became reacquainted though a different group of friends. I discovered that Frenchy had also ditched the girlfriend but damn, he had just started dating someone else new. One evening a group of us decided to dine at the romantique French restaurant, The Little Door. However, chicky was running late and was going to join us later. How the evening progressed next, I am not proud of…but let’s just say that Frenchy was a porc (pig) and never answered his cell phone, so chicky never got the opportunity to join us that night. Quelques bouteilles de vin rouge plus tard, (a few bottles of red wine later) it seemed that Frency and I were ready to attack each other right there at the dinner table. The conquest I had desired was about to be all mine.

From here in you would expect this story to get really juicy…and oh it does, but not in the way you would think. You see after I got him…just like an order of soggy fries, I wanted to send him back. Yet this time I had no craving for this dish to be re-served. The long awaited kiss I had so achingly waited for…I should have just left at that. Boy my psychic senses were sure off on this one. This guy seemed so sexy and charming, but then with just one slip of the tongue… disappointingly I discovered that Frenchy kissed like a slobbering Saint Bernard dog! I’m not talking about swapping salvia here, but more like foaming of the mouth, as the entire lower portion of my face was dripping with his drool. (Eew.) I stopped and wondered if this was some French sexual delicacy, that I had yet to discover. But quickly realized if it was, I didn’t want to know about it then or ever. I had to say Cest la vie to Frenchy. But don’t fret about him. Frency got to have his cake and eat it too. Evidently chicky still dug the dribbler even after she found out about our little escapade. I truly hope they ended up happily ever after. At least we know they were wet. (One would think that I must have done something very bad in a past life to create this funky karma with the French.)

There is this other thing that’s kind of funky and French that I have yet to include here. I can’t really believe that it happened to me…or shall I take some responsibility here and say that I took part in it…oh, lets get real here, I was the one that instigated it! Well, actually only a wimpy-ass version of it. Jesus, I’ve shared my deepest darkest everything in this column. Evidently I have absolutely no shame what-so-ever that I am blurting out to the masses that I was involved in a manage a tois. But, as I said it really wasn’t all that…articles of clothing were left on by all parties (if that means anything.)

Back to the beginning where I was telling you how I don’t know Jacque Merde (jack shit) about the French, what I do know is that if you happen to meet two hotties at the same time who are friends, pick only one. Because no matter how appealing and provocative it may seem at the time…whatever happens in the beginning, or the middle…you pretty much can count on losing them both in the end.

When In France:

Belier (Aries) You stroll down the Champs-Elysee in search of a piece of âne. (booty)

Taureau (Taurus) You think you’re speaking the language, but while asking for the bathroom you end up in jail for propositioning an officier.

Gateaux (Gemini) You can’t decide on the left or the right bank, so you end up in the middle…wet, in the Seine.

Cancer (Cancer): You eat their food, drink their wine, visit the Eiffel Tower but complain the entire time.

Lion (Leo) You go to the Palace of Versailles, crown yourself emperor and are immediately overthrown.

Vierge (Virgo) You Metro straight to the Louvre where you convince yourself that you are the great work of art.

Balance (Libra) You spend your time figuring out the exchange rate and wonder if you’ve been ripped off.

Scorpion (Scorpio) You voyeur over to the Moulin Rouge and try to steal someone’s underwear.

Sagittaire (Sagittarius) You spend mornings in a café, afternoons shopping at Colette and evenings at a happening soirée.

Capricorne (Capricorn) You don’t comprehend the taxi driver so you get back on the plane and go home. Au revoir.

Verseau (Aquarius) You head for the Alps and climb the highest peak naked.

Poissons (Pisces) You spend your entire trip trying to figure out the bidet.

05/03 SCHOOL DAYS

No matter what age we are, young or old, we are continually being given the opportunity to overcome our crap. If we choose to do so, that is totally up to us. We always have the freewill to stay stuck in a rut or move fast forward a head. From what I have come to understand, life, the universe, our existence are all constantly sending us situations to learn and grow from. Beautiful, wonderful, lovely (and yes, I am saying that sarcastically ) lessons. They just keep coming one right after the other. It never stops. Why even the reward for successfully passing that last lesson you just got through…is that you get to move on to a whole new lesson. Oh, goodie. If you thought you were done with school, think again because life is one long on-going special ed class, even for me.

When I started out reading for other people many moons ago, I used to get a lot of flack about my age or lack of it. People would comment on how I was too young to possibly be psychic. I thought It was rather odd that others assumed that one in their youth could not be in touch with their intuition. Even before 900 numbers and infomercials became famous, the perception of my profession was that you had to be old, ugly, adorned with a caftan, turban and a crystal ball. I hope in this lifetime I’m able to put a dent in that mold.

When one is psychic people expect you to have all the answers to everything. They don’t seem to comprehend that I am here just like everyone else with my own stuff to learn and conquer. In fact what sucks for me is that when I am being taught a lesson, I get tested ten times harder than anyone else.. Other wise how would I be able to turn around and assist you. Right? Fun for me.

We all have it. All of us are born with a natural intuition that is as much a part of us as our sense of taste or smell. It’s just that society has not given us much permission to connect with it and use it. It’s kind of like if we were raised in a world that lead us to believe that it was not kosher for us to breath through our nose. If you were continually told that breathing through your nose was a very bad thing to practice, it was dangerous, even considered sacrilegious? It wouldn’t be long before you stopped breathing through your nose because you didn’t want to be considered an outcast. This pretty much is what happen along the way with humanity and our sixth sense. Somewhere eons ago in religious history some control freak person in a position of power wanted to have all the influence over others and started this ridiculous belief system. (Can you imagine this person’s karma today, scary.)

The younger we are, the less time society has had to program us with bullshit and the less crud we have to work our way through to reconnect with our own intuition. Okay good, but please don’t think that I’m implying that you should to go running to your 10 year old niece demanding to know if the person you have a crush on likes you back. What I am saying is that when we are young we are naturally more in touch with our insight. This also does not mean that if you no longer considered yourself to be young… you can’t make the connection. You just have a little bit more stuff to work though to get there. Extra fun for you.

I can only make claims for myself here and not every other Dick, Jane and Mary psychic out there.. But when I read it is a lot like going on camera. Although there are lots of actors and actresses running around acting like they are on camera when they aren’t…I am not walking around trying to psychically looking at stuff when I’m not reading. So it might come as a shock to discover I am in this way a lot like you. When I am out having a drink, I’m just having a drink. I have plenty of my own issues, energy and stuff to deal with, that the last thing I want to do when I’m not reading (working) is voyeur into your space and look at your stuff just for a little extracurricular fun.

One of the biggest tests I have is that I get bent out of shape by other people’s unawareness of how my abilities work. When someone who doesn’t know me, finds out that I am psychic and asks me stupid questions like: “What am I thinking?.. Can you guess my sign?.. How old am I?” It’s quite frustrating. I suppose some people actually assume that I enjoy being the party trick that walks around psychically turned on and tuned in 24 hours a day… already looking at everything and everyone that happens to cross my path. Not! It so doesn’t work that way. I don’t mean to sound like a bitter medium, but when some loser blurts out “Hey Psychic Girl, Can you guess my name?” I’m making nice while smiling at them outside, but on the inside I’m urging to respond: “Dude, if you need me to tell you your own name, you need much more help than me.”

If you went back to school today you’d:

Aries: get recognition for being the most creative in your class, but have to deal with jealousy from your classmates.

Taurus: are the bully of the playground, get caught passing notes in class and are sent to detention for a full week.

Gemini: have a crush on someone in class, debate back and forth about how you could change your destiny by letting them know or not.

Cancer: be playing in the sandbox, discover the kid playing next to you and invite them over after school for a play date.

Leo: be elected Prom royalty, eat, drink, dance, party the night away, and be granted a mighty hangover.

Virgo: be suspended from school for fighting, but you’d feel justified because you were defending an innocent kid from a bully.

Libra: be the sophisticated kid in class who saves up all their allowance to purchase a matching sweater, scarf and mitten set.

Scorpio: be incredibly charming for your young age as you flirted with your fellow students, teachers and even the cafeteria workers.

Sagittarius: keep looking at the clock waiting for the bell to ring, because you know there is a whole world going on outside of school.

Capricorn: go to the school dance and stand around like a wallflower until the cutie you secretly like asks you to dance.

Aquarius: be the class clown who keeps all of your classmates in stitches while you are able to deal with even the meanest teacher.

Pisces: be the brain of the class who gets straight A’s, while you daydream of growing up to be a rock star.

06/07/03 PSYCHIC VACATION

No matter how much you like someone, there’s no better way to wreck a relationship than going on vacation with them. When I was young, my family would go on vacation together. My dad (shoe store owner) had this compulsion to go into every shoe store we saw to measure up the competition, even though these stores were hundreds of miles away from ours. Systematically he would go in to the chosen store, do his walk through to sum up the place and of course would let it be known to the poor person who was working the store that he owned shoe stores too. Dad got to feed his ego and I unconsciously was brainwashed that vacation equals work. To this day I don’t vacation well.

When I was even younger my friend and her parents took me camping. She had a an older brother who was a miserable monster. He took this trip as his opportunity to let me know just how much he liked me. As we were playing make believe in the woods, he shot me in the finger with his be be gun. (My first not so nice experience with nature.)

Years later I went on a trip with some other friends to their cabin on a lake. They had a boat which we motored out into the middle of the lake in. Next they cut the engine of the boat while we just sat wading in the water. I asked what we were doing and they replied that we were just hanging. Oh. Hanging was completely a foreign concept to me. I had no clue how to just hang. Then just about when I could take the doing nothing no longer, we decided that I should attempted to water ski for the first time. I barley got up on the skis when a bee flew right into a finger of the fingerless gloves I was wearing and stung me (which by the way was also my first bee sting.) I blew up like a red puffy blow fish as welts developed over my entire body. Another lovely experience with nature for my memory book. The last vacation that I took was in January. A girlfriend invited me to go to Sundance. Not because she had a film showing in any of the festivals. But to do some marketing for the company she worked for handing out freebees to VIP festivalgoers. I got to tag along for the ride, and oh what a ride it was. This trip, left me feeling like I needed a whole other vacation to recover from it. On the ride to the airport we anticipated how much fun yet was to come. But, by the time we boarded for the flight home, my friend and I weren’t even speaking.

Due to yet another incident with nature.and this guy Pal. This time I wasn’t personally injured, just the car that was rented in my name was. Pal is this intoxicated inebriated friend of my friend who decided that on top of whatever else he was tripping on.it wasn’t enough. No he then dropped some x .took the rented Excursion out four wheeling in the snow at some insane dark hour of the night and drive the car into a ditch. Needless to say.we awoke in the morning to find a fucked up car and Pal void of all memory of what took place. All I can say is thank God for rental insurance. How my friend ever forgave Pal for his actions, that is not for me to judge. I guess she forgave him the same way I forgave her for inviting him on our vacation. Nature on the other hand doesn’t seem to be so forgiving to me.

Aries: On vacation you struggle with calling home and work, but finally allow yourself to relax and go with the flow. Your dream vacation is any beach with a breeze, a drink in your hand, and a sexy companion. Your idea of nature is room service at the Hilton.

Taurus: On vacation you are the great adventurer, but your stubborn nature makes your companions think of you in very different terms. Your dream vacation is to strange and distant lands like climbing Mt. Everest. In nature you embrace the call of the wild and live off the land.

Gemini: On vacation you schedule every single detail of your including bathroom stops and how many minutes for lunch. Your dream vacation is 17 countries in 7 days. Nature is fine just as long as it can keep to your schedule.

Cancer: On vacation your lightning quick temper has every travel agent and concierge knowing your name, your preferences, and that still isn’t good enough for you. Your dream vacation is being pampered at a very expensive spa, waited on hand and foot. You have a love hate thing for nature….you love it …..it hates you.

Leo: On vacation you dive right into the culture of wherever you are and instantly dub yourself a native. Your dream vacation, any cosmopolitan city is prime. In nature, nature, what is nature?

Virgo: On vacation your frugal nature takes over and doesn’t allow you to fully enjoy the fruits of your labor. Your dream vacation is a cruise to the Caribbean that you got on e-bay for a song. You have a great love for nature and since camping is free.

Libra: On vacation no matter where anyone else wants to go, it is your way or the highway. You don’t need a tour guide, you are the tour guide. You dream of a romantic trip to Venice, but the practical side allows only a trip to the Venetian in Las Vegas. You love being in nature and it rejuvenates you.

Scorpio: On vacation you explore the darker sides of the places you visit, venturing down the unmarked paths. Your dream vacation is Bangkok, Morocco, The Seychelles or any Sandals resort. You think nature is a good excuse to get naked.

Sagittarius: On vacation you love to do something you’ve never done before. Skydiving, parasailing or. Your dream vacation is a beautiful island in the South Pacific where you can scuba or surf the days away. You are one with nature.

Capricorn: On vacation you can’t decide, go with the tour or venture out on your own. You end up staying in your room with a good book and a glass of wine. Your dream vacation is somewhere logical, practical and emotional…..Disneyworld. In nature you love the beauty but you hate the bugs.

Aquarius: On vacation you never get to go or do what you want. Even when you travel alone you end up having to bend to someone else’s idea. Your dream vacation is to Rome where you will satisfy your creativity, love of romance and history. In nature you are like a duck in a pond.

Pisces: On vacation you’d have a great time if you could decide to which direction to go in because you want to do everything all at once. Your dream vacation is on a Tahitian beach while riding the roller coaster in Coney Island at the same time. You think you can handle being in nature, but after ten minutes it’s time to go home.

10/03 VERY SUPERSTITIOUS

Psychic Trick or Treat Ever felt that you had a spell cast on you, or that you’ve jinxed yourself? Ever watched a horror movie and been so freaked you couldn’t get it out of your head? Ghosts, goblins and gory monsters are all scary. But what is even scarier is the uncharted territory of your unconscious mind and the ability is has to play along with you. You see all the superstitions and fears floating around in the universe only have the power to effect you to the degree that you allow them. So, the next time you find yourself tripping over something you think is bigger than life, try the following spiritual magic. Envision a symbol that represents your “scary” thing. Next watch that symbol get smaller and smaller until it becomes a miniscule dot that you can barely see. Then take an imaginary envelope and place your dot inside of it. Now take your dot on a walk to the nearest make believe mail box, open the shoot, say good bye and let it go. Relax knowing that your “scary” thing is now the property of where little kids send letters to Santa ie: the US Postal Service Recovery System and has absolutely no chance of ever finding you again…A trick and a treat!

Aries: Very superstitious: Say you have no superstitions? You show brave to the public, but once a black cat crosses your path in your pocket and you’ll find a rabbit’s foot, a four leaf clover, and an old fortune predicting money, sex and power. Bump in the night: In the dark you fear no evil and bump deeper into any void you encounter. Scary movie role: Count Dracula, you are the leader of all vampires, and half dead who party with you till the break of dawn.

Taurus: Very superstitious: You throw salt over your shoulder in order to ward off bad luck. You fear not being taken seriously and take whatever measures to protect yourself. Bump in the night: You bump your head repeatedly against the headboard in the night, but that’s a small price for the evening’s naughty entertainment.
