Soul-carving
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): According to some sources, the ancient Greek
philosopher Socrates practiced the art of sculpture as a young man. But
he abandoned it early on, deciding that he wanted to "carve his soul
rather than marble." Can I interest you in turning your attention to that
noble, gritty task, Leo? It would be a fine time to do some intensive soul-
carving. Soul-scouring, too, would be both fun and wise, as well as soul-
etching and soul-emblazoning and soul-accessorizing. I highly recommend
that you enjoy a prolonged phase of renovating and replenishing your
most precious work of art.
