The Sagittarius Law Of Accelerating Returns

July 15, 2010 in Sagittarius, Sun Signs by Mystic Medusa | 74 comments

None of this is an insult as i seriously love Saggos.

I admire their ability to be as insouciant hopping on a plane to Pago-Pago for the weekend as most peeps are catching a cross-town-taxi.

They are awesome.

I’d also like to call them out on a certain romantic policy that i am convinced they have.

Let’s call it the Sagittarian Law of Accelerating Returns even though that’s more usually applied to dna sequencing, apparently.

It sounds cool and who knows, it may be the only law this lot have.

Simply put: no matter how in love the Saggo may be – male or female – the Saggo likes to keeps many a line in the water. Or many a possibility open. So the second they sense that you’ve moved on, dissolved your crush on them or hooked up with someone else, guess who you hear from?

That’s right! You will hear from Sagittarius in full-courting-mode. Sort of.

The Sagittarian Law Of Accelerating Returns may have to do with their desire to always have an escape pod. So keeping your e-mail or your number and dropping you an awfully fond bit of hyper-gush from time to time is just like them having a packed suitcase at all times.

Or is there more to it than that?

Pisces does this too but they are more random. For some reason you MIGHT just pop into the Piscean mind but Saggo is more deliberate about it. There may even be a system. Like a scheduler and if they haven’t seen/heard evidence of your continued adoration of them for (say) eight months, they’ll send something lugubrious which, if you did not know better, you’d swear was them trying to reheat the romance.

Astro-Poll: Which Sign Would You Really Rather NOT Go Camping With?

June 4, 2010 in Astro-Poll by Mystic Medusa | 143 comments

camping

I think Sagg would be the BEST sign to go camping with…Perpetually cheery, fab sense of direction and hard to phase.

Aries is also upbeat but wrecks it by wanting to pitch the tent on the highest peak visible and screaming ‘come on slackers’ at the fellow campers. But Aries will erect a sodding tent in the middle of a cyclone and heaven help any wild animal who gets between an Aries and a barbecue.

Taurus brings along one of those structured tents with carpets, ovens and a bar fridge. Which is great except it means Taurus requires staff and or “helpers.” There is also the risk of a fight when peeps with less salubrious facilities because they’re keeping-it-real try to sneak into Tent-Taurus for a quick toblerone cocktail. No-no-no.

Gemini & Pisces will have sat-nav, i-Pod and an internet connection for keeping in touch with where it’s at. They’ll talk a good game about being At One with nature and foraging for strange berries that they intend to make into ‘bush tucker’ but go totally off the whole idea about a third of the way into it. They need their fellow campers to be either great conversationalists or someone they fancy. They quite like it if they can hear the comforting sound of a busy road in the distance but will totally get out of any camping chores so that they can talk shit and go skinny-dipping.

Cancerians & Scorps will either not go at ALL or they will go in hardcore, with Swiss survival knives, special sleeping bags, manuals, a determination to actually hunt something/find treasure/walk 1000k in one day and probably some psych issues to work through. There will be deep chats around the fire at night and sensual appreciation of the stars, night-time noise etc. That’s even as Gem & Pisces lie gibbering in their tents, screaming at every squawk from an animal.

Leo & Libra will set out in the latest camping fashion, outdoorsy scents and with a muslin tent, thinking of Out Of Africa scenarios. Silver backed hairbrushes, 800 thread count organic sheets and bush-wattle body lotions are hard to lug around on long treks to camping grounds but they will do it. There may be a dramatic scene once either of them realises that the hard-core Scorp running the show is actually arcing up for a fistfight with the Aries, that there is a Pisces or Aquarius bitching because their tentmate won’t point the tent in the right direction for Feng Shui, due to the blizzard AND that there are no special dietary requirements taken into account.

Aquarius would want to to whacked out rituals, wildcrafting, nude bushwalking and maybe add the mental mushrooms they foraged into the Arieans barbecue. Virgo and Capricorn would not even GO on this trip without the perameters being carefully delineated and agreed on (legally binding) beforehand. It’s too unstructured…

Sun Sign Survey: What Sign Was Your Weirdest Flatmate?!

May 29, 2010 in Aquarius, Aries, Sagittarius, Sun Sign Survey by Mystic Medusa | 139 comments

AM sorting out the archives and this is SO FUN I think I am going to bung it right here, right now – Because not all of us have shared…YET.

YOUR WEIRDEST FLATMATE WAS WHAT SIGN?! Or housemate/roomate, whatever?

I have three contenders for this…And, to be fair, I am sure that i was someone’s weirdest flatmate myself. I think it is always worth acknowledging that point.But these flatmates were all joyously raving astro-cliches…By which i mean SO true to the most trite traits of their Sun Sign that it was – at best – archetypal.

* Flatmate One: Female – Sagg.

Alarmingly athletic, leggy, toothy, tanned and super-candid to a point that stunned people. She spent all her spare money on sports equipment that she was totally thrilled about. So my friends and I blew $ we didn’t have on booze, shoes, poetry and perfume – hers went on kayaks, mountain bikes, new running shoes, skis – fresh sports socks if she really broke. Had a banker boyfriend whom, she candidly admitted, was to “facilitate” international snowboarding excursions. Also prone to fleeting but very-intense-whilst-they-lasted-lust-crush-fixations on men whom she would blatantly stalk. Slept nude. Opened door in the nude. Studied in the nude. Rarely drank due to usually having to be up at 4.30 am for some kind of run or kayaking event but when she did get On It, Sagg-Flatmate would quickly go from ‘one glass of wine after tutorial’ to debating law with bouncers trying to eject her for dancing topless on the table.

* Flatmate Two: Male – Aquarius.

Much older bearded Gestalt therapist and frequenter of workshops. Recently divorced and the part-time parent of two daughters, he populated his house with teenage student flatmates a la the incentive: ‘live here, close to uni, I am so cool with you bringing all your fabulous friends around and partying day and night…Truly relaxed living, no hassles etc.’ It did not occur to me until years later that this may have been the source of his frequent day-long domestics with his ex-wife on the verandah. Fave Saying: ‘that’s your shit…’ Morphed between being quite fascinating a la discussing mythology et al to pompous and ostentatious meditating in the middle of the living room with Nag Champa burning and his horrid white belly freaking out his cute-teenage-flatmates + their lovers and then again to cannabis-inspired creepy investigative candour and flaccid passes.

* Flatmate Three – THE WINNER OF MY PERSONAL WEIRD FLATMATE COMP: Male – Aries...

V.short and muscular. Had huge pile of smut in the living room, not really looked at and just magazines but there to make the point that he could. He constantly denounced feminism, in really bonkers ways. And would get visibly thrilled if you argued with him about it. Like visibly. Beads of sweat on brow, unbuttoning his shirt a bit and let’s open another bottle of wine. Read endless tracts of stuff such as Shere Hite and Germaine Greer to get his “ammo.” Slept between sheep and goat skins as did not approve of sheets. Had v.expensive stereo etc but always kept doors/windows unlocked because – he said – his karma was so fantastic. Could not go three sentences in any conversation without doing pull-ups on the nearest door frame. Opinionated to the point that he was constantly getting into fights with people, which he enjoyed. Aries Flatmate had no formal martial arts training but genuinely loved fighting, especially if he could keep mouthing off whilst doing it. Blamed his frequent turnover of woman friends on Feminism.

Calling Sagg

May 27, 2010 in Astro-Passages by Mystic Medusa | 39 comments

Hey the Moon is in Saggo and it’s one of those Moons where it’s Full (ie; opposing the Sun) practically as soon as it gets into the sign…

So that’s cool.

But really, Sagittarius, it is time to come in from the cold barren wilderness…You’ve had Pluto on your case since 1996 until 2008, Uranus squaring Saggo from 2003 and Saturn squaring from late 2007…Yes, squares are Growth and Pluto is Growth and it’s all been a vast growth curve, whatever but the basic fact is that from NOW is going to be your best eight year phase in recorded history and in every respect.

So come in Sagg.

Actually, all of the Mutables (Sagittarius, Pisces, Gemini, Virgo) will notice a distinct trending upward of situations that have felt moribund or like non-stop merde for yonks.

Mercury Rubik

April 27, 2010 in Astro-Query by Mystic Medusa | 59 comments

Erno Rubik, who invented this thing, is a Cancerian, famously introverted just like his fellow Crab Proust, apparently.

The Cube itself is a Capricorn – patented January 17 1974.

After months of obsession as a child, i solved it. I am talking hours spent working on it in secret, under the covers with a torch. Infuriatingly, nobody believed that i had done it.

A la productive Mercury Retrograde nostalgia & a distraction from the Bitch Moon - do tell: What is your sign and did you solve Rubik’s Cube? Melt it? Lie that you had done it? Ignore as you are so above such fads? Despise with a vengeance? Complete in a nano-sek?

Geminis are usually ace at solving puzzles but a Leo would denounce the entire Cube paradigm and Rubik himself if he/she could not master the Cube within five minutes. Aquarius would find some occult significance in the colours or the symmetry and Sagg would chuck it out the window.

Astro-Decor: Is This Your Loo?

March 31, 2010 in Astro-Decor by Mystic Medusa | 67 comments

I tend to ascribe black painted walls to Scorpio and the custom of copious reading in the loo to Pisces. But I could be wrong. To whom do you think this lavatory belongs? And what books/magazines is this character so fond of perusing whilst excreting? And what is that mandala thing above the toilet? Why is there no spare roll of paper on the thingie? OH MY GOD. Is that what all those magazines are for? Shit. I think this might be a Sagittarius situation…Thoughts?

A Sagittarius…

March 5, 2010 in Uncategorized by Mystic Medusa | 26 comments

A Sagittarius Off To See Her Accountant…? No? Where do you think the Saggo is going? I swear, i.r.l. those legs may or may not belong to a Sagittarius but they ALWAYS have the best legs. It’s weird. How does having the Centaur as a symbol manifest that? Or is it all the jagging around?

Gift Ideas For Our Sagg

February 22, 2010 in Uncategorized by Mystic Medusa | 24 comments

Sagittarians are the only sign to truly appreciate novelty gifts. Geminis say that they do but they’re really rather have the gift vouchers. Aquarius? Ha. They’ll snicker and then be non-speakers for a lifetime for a two. But Sagittarians love this sort of stuff. So why not give them this glow-in-the-dark bog paper?

Fute Design

Or, for the budget-unconscious Saggo-lover, this tent styled couch so the Saggo can pretend he/she IS actually in the Gobi desert eating scorpion omelette with the tribe. Why the concern with Saggo gifts now? Because we all know they’re never at home on their actual birthday.

The Aircruise Flying Hotel Could Turn Us All Into Saggos

February 7, 2010 in Uncategorized by Mystic Medusa | 33 comments

You guys all know that Uranus in Aries (from June!) is going to be a significant phase of oh-my-godding-w.t.f. style new invention, don’t you? I still think personal jetpacks are going be big. But in the meantime, this Airspace flying hotel thing looks awesome enough to turn even the most agoraphobic type into a raving Saggo.

You know how Saggos are always happiest setting off from some trip or another.

Designed by SeymourPowell, it will float graciously above the earth but not too high and look like a huge balloon. It goes slow & you can open the windows to get some fresh breeze. It’s totally carbon-friendly. No word yet on $ for what a journey on this thing would cost but how cool, yes?

Sex On The Go – Saggo?

January 29, 2010 in Uncategorized by Mystic Medusa | 101 comments

Sean Diddy Combs & Natalia Vodianova in US Vogue’s fashion-feature/homage to Brief Encounter

This is anecdotal only, but it definitely seems to be our Sagg who tops the sex-outdoors, sex-whilst-travelling, sex in planes and sex in trains stakes. Partly because they just ARE outdoors and travelling a lot anyway, I suppose. But they genuinely seem to like it. So here goes, name your sign & sex-on-the-go specifications.

Or ‘out’ any Saggo you know of with this predeliction. I know an Aquarius (Virgo Rising) who had such a bad argument with a Saggo over sex on the beach (deserted, but she was paranoid about paparazzi AND her Brazilian letting grains of sand up inside and thus maybe causing ovarian problems) that they broke up.
