TAURUS (April 20-May 20): The *Fortean Times* reported on the odd case of Dixie, a British donkey that brays backwards. Instead of the usual hee-haw, she expresses herself with the sound of haw-hee. I nominate her to be an inspirational role model for your own inner donkey in the coming week, Taurus. Encourage that tireless, steady, hard-working part of you to be playfully deviant, fond of reversals, and on the lookout for upside-down and inside-out forms of expression–while still remaining devoted to completing the demanding tasks at hand.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Ready for a sweet revolution? At the very moment when the polarities are at the extremity of their opposition, they will mutate into a state of dynamic unity. The struggle between the light and dark will dissolve in the face of a rejuvenating catharsis, becoming more like a collaboration. There’ll be a breathtaking cessation of the conflict between logic and intuition, civilization and nature, and masculine and feminine. The truce will not only be fascinating; it will also spawn a synergistic brainchild that has enormous healing potential. The end of strife has rarely had such great potential for generating high adventure.
