jenepherre | WHAT'S Y'ALL'S SIGN (Horoscope for Southerners)

Gakked from my friend Roz, who is not an LJer. LOL

Peach, you'll enjoy this! hehe

It has become pretty obvious to us Southerners that our present
astrological signs have served their purpose and that we should get
rid of them. When I'm out driving around I'll see bulls and, once
in a great while, I suppose I'll even see a ram. Up the street from
me there's some twins, but I don't see them much. The rest of these
things are just too obscure. You only see crabs on vacation. There
are no lions or scorpions, not many archers and no damn water
bearers. Virgins? The neighborhood's not crawling with them
either. SO, what we need here is some relevance. We need
things we can recognize up there in the night sky.

SCROLL DOWN TO YOUR BIRTH DATE!

OKRA: Dec 22 - Jan 20
Although you appear crude, you are actually very slick on the inside.
Okra have tremendous influence. An older Okra can look back over his
life and see the seeds of his influence everywhere. Stay away from
Moon Pies.

CHITLIN: Jan 21 - Feb 19
Chitlins often come from humble backgrounds. Many times they're
uncomfortable talking about just where they came from. A chitlin,
however, can make something of himself if he's motivated and has
plenty of seasoning. When it comes to dealing with Chitlins, be very
careful. Chitlins can burn and then erupt like Vesuvius, and this can
make for a really terrible mess. Chitlins are best with Catfish and
Okra. Remember that when marriage time rolls around.

BOLL WEEVIL: Feb 20 - Mar 20
You have an overwhelming curiosity. You're unsatisfied with the
surface of things, and you feel the need to bore deep into the
interior of everything. Needless to say, you are very intense and
driven as if you had some inner hunger. Nobody in their right mind is
going to marry you, so don't worry about it.

MOON PIE: Mar 21 - Apr 20
You're the type that spends a lot of time on the front porch. It's a
cinch to recognize the physical appearance of Moon Pies. "Big" and
"round" are the key words here. You should marry anybody who you can
get remotely interested in the idea. It's not going to be easy. This
might be the year to think about aerobics. Maybe not.

POSSUM: Apr 21 - May 21
When confronted with life's difficulties, possums have a marked
tendency to withdraw and develop a "don't - bother - me - about - it"
attitude. Sometimes you become so withdrawn, people actually think
you're dead. This strategy is probably not psychologically healthy,
but seems to work for you. One day, however, it won't work, and you
may find your problems actually running you over.

CRAWDAD: May 22 - Jun 21
Crawfish is a water sign. If you work in an office, you're always
hanging around the water cooler. Crawfish prefer the beach to the
mountains, the pool to the golf course, the bathtub to the living
room. You tend not to be particularly attractive physically, but you
have very, very good heads.

COLLARDS: Jun 22- Jul 23
Collards have a genius for communication. They love to get in the
"melting pot" of life and share their essence with the essences of
those around them. Collards make good social workers, psychologists,
and baseball managers. As far as your personal life goes, if you are
Collards, stay away from Moon Pies. It just won't work. Save yourself
a lot of heartache.

CATFISH: Jul 24 - Aug 23
Catfish are traditionalists in matters of the heart, with one
exception: Whiskers may cause problems for loved ones. You catfish
are never easy people to understand. You prefer the muddy bottoms
to the clear surface of life. Above all else, Catfish should stay
away from Moon Pies.

GRITS: Aug 24 - Sep 23
Your highest aim is to be with others like yourself. You like to
huddle together with a big crowd of other Grits. You love to travel,
though, so maybe you should think about joining a club. Where do you
like to go? Anywhere they have cheese or gravy or bacon or butter or
eggs. If you can go somewhere where they have all these things, that
serves you well.

BOILED PEANUTS: Sep 24 - Oct 23
You have a passionate desire to help your fellow man. Unfortunately,
those who know you best - your friends and loved ones - may find that
your personality is much too salty, and their criticism will probably
affect you deeply because you are really much softer than you appear.
You should go right ahead and marry anybody you want to because in a
certain way, yours is a charmed life. On the road of life, you can be
sure that people will always pull over and stop for you.

BUTTER BEAN: Oct 24 - Nov 22
Always invite a Butter Bean because Butter Beans get along well with
everybody. You, as a Butter Bean, should be proud. You've grown on the
vine of life and you feel at home no matter what the setting. You can
sit next to anybody. However, you, too, shouldn't have anything to do
with Moon Pies.

ARMADILLO: Nov 23 - Dec 21
You have a tendency to develop a tough exterior, but you are actually
quite gentle. A good evening for you? Old friends, a fire, some roots,
fruit, worms and insects. You are a throwback. You're not concerned
with today's fashions and trends. You're not concerned with anything
about today. You're really almost prehistoric in your interests and
behavior patterns. You probably want to marry another Armadillo, but
Possum is another, somewhat kinky, mating possibility.

I'm a Possum.... huh...
