Freewill Astrology for week of 4/12/06
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Here are your words of power for the coming
week, Pisces: *finagle, serendipitous, tinker, adlib, revise, crafty, balance,
rectify.* I urge you to carry out actions that embody the spirit of all those
terms. Once you do, I believe you'll be in perfect alignment with the
cosmic forces coming to bear on you, and will therefore have prevailed
upon those cosmic forces to provide you with the metaphorical equivalent
of a skeleton key, universal password, or Swiss army knife.
This horoscope resonates with my energies today. I'm feeling inspired.
I met Barton Parks yesterday. He's a JPS (Justice & Policy Studies) professor at Guilford who teaches courses on community-building and trust in communities. Emily Place is currently taking his course called Trust & Violence, and, from hearing her excited ravings about how wonderful she finds him and his teaching style, I find myself majorly intrigued. Evidently he's somewhat of an anarchist and styles his courses in a way that puts him in just as much a learning role as any of his students. He doesn't lead the class discussion, he participates. Sounds really interesting to me. Unfortunately I probably won't get to take a class with him, though. His course Community-Building Fundamentals this fall will be at the same time as Informal Logic (which it appears will be the only logic course offered next year, and since taking a logic course is a philosophy major requirement I have to take Informal), and he may be retiring after the fall semester. I'm glad I met him, then, and I'm excited that he says I can e-mail him the paper from my Dubois class on the educational system (the one I never finished but hope to finish one day) and he will send me his comments and suggestions when he has a chance.
