magnetic aura of a man who exerted a profound inf luence on those who knew him, and who left an indelible mark on his community.

Eduardo Carrillo was an artist who lived in full color, ate and drank with gusto, played guitar and sang full-throttle as if he really could, made art like it was breathing, saw life for whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good in it, irrepressibly loved women, was devoted to two wives and became dependent on drugs but spent his last eight years in transcendent recovery. A scholarship in his name now aids art students in need at UCSC; an annual Eduardo Carrillo Prize in Painting awards $10,000 to under-recognized artists; a virtual Museo Eduardo Carrillo resides impressively online and the Crocker Museum in Sacramento will soon have a gallery permanently devoted to his work.

His massive tile mural El Grito in the Plazita de Dolores in Los Angeles commemorates the Mexican peasant revolt. Locally, his Birth, Death and Regeneration mural in the Palomar passageway in Santa Cruz is now painted over, but murals by his students can be seen throughout the Central Coast.

1 =D 3 @ j 4/ : : / @ B A j 7 < : 7 D 7 < 5 1 = := @ Born in Santa Monica to parents from Baja, Mexico, young Carrillo attended UCLA and was headed toward chemistry as a career until a post-baccalaureate 14 months in Spain focused his ambitions: He visited the Prado daily, copying the paintings of Velasquez, El Greco and, religiously, the Meditation of Saint Anthony by Hieronymus Bosch. He mixed his own pigments in their colors and learned glazing techniques of the masters. When he returned to UCLA it was for an MFA under the mentorship of Stanton MacDonald Wright, who had been the head of the WPA in California.

For his ceramics classes he marched his students to dig up clay from campus fields, then fired the work in the holes they dug.

He actually did teach underwater basket weaving.

During this era of the mid-1960s, the Chicano movement was gaining momentum, having sprouted in the fields of the United Farm Workers, matured in the political theater of El Teatro Campesino and then entered international awareness under the flag of Chicanismo/Chicano Art. But Eduardo Carrillo was not a man of rage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t drag him into a bad mood,â&#x20AC;? said his wife, Alison. He expressed his culture through its history; he painted allegories, he painted grace and greatness in the people of his race and ultimately the human race. In 1966

he founded El Centro de Arte Regional in his fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s birthplace in La Paz, Baja, teaching and exhibiting regional crafts and acting as the centerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first director.

When he joined the faculty at UCSC he was at first controversial, according to fellow professor Douglas McClelland, because he was considered not political enough. According to another contemporary, professor Kathryn Metz, â&#x20AC;&#x153;He just didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to be the universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Chicano.â&#x20AC;?

He was his own man, as the paintings in MAHâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Solari Gallery demonstrate. His distinctive palette at first seems muted, dominated by an earthy red and ochre and a warm cerulean blue all close in value, all overglazed in that Renaissance technique that draws the colors together. After only a few moments, the outrageous boldness of his highlights, outlines, shadows become apparent and what had seemed almost somber is revealed to be filled with light.

The exhibit includes works ranging from a fond portrait of his uncle building a wall to The Last Supper, which contrasts with thousands of insipid versions by depicting a powerful, earthy Christ in a passionate dinner discussion: each apostle a portrait of a real character in Eduardoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s San Ignacio family home (a visitor was the only one who would agree to be painted as Judas.) In Down the Lane, Carrillo puts a Santa Cruz stamp on a â&#x20AC;&#x153;boulevard sceneâ&#x20AC;? referring to Steamer Lane. Alison Carrillo is dramatically lit in a ritualized dance in Woman With Snake. The giant psychedelic Los Tropicanos was called â&#x20AC;&#x153;the most important painting of the 1970sâ&#x20AC;? by critic Kenneth Baker after it appeared in the seminal â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Bad Paintingâ&#x20AC;? show in New York. As his wife, Alison, said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ed saw life in layers of reality.â&#x20AC;? The layers were not always revealed through psychedelics. The artist wrote of his beloved Baja: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Here the light is so intense that colors get distilled twice, like good tequila, into something potent enough to rediscover what you take for reality.â&#x20AC;?

Two self-portraits painted some four decades apart greet visitors, as if to say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Here this is, this is all of me, from start to finish.â&#x20AC;? Not all, of course, not nearly all.

0/0G ;CB/<BA In the 1960s Os Mutantes was a clean-cut trio with barely subversive tendencies.

lineup, having gone through 11 band member additions and deletions over the years, is still anchored by Dias but now features longtime Mutante Dinho Leme on drums plus five recently added musicians on vocals, keys, bass and guitar.

The groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new album, Haih or Amortecedor, due out Sept. 8, is a departure from the lush samba-psychepop of yesteryear and a step toward a more progressive rock sound, but one through which the iconic TropicĂĄlia style still shines. Folks looking to see a rehashing of â&#x20AC;&#x2122;60s-era Mutantes tracks at Outside Lands will leave disappointed, Dias says, as he plans on playing mostly new songs live. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mutantes is not about me or the band, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an umbrella term for a state of mind,â&#x20AC;? says Dias. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The music speaks for itself. And when you see us live, there wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be any special lights or pyrotechnics, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll just be us smiling on stage and getting lost in the music.â&#x20AC;?

OS MUTANTES rocks the Sutra Stage at the Outside Lands Music & Arts Festival in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco, on Saturday, Aug. 29, at 4:50pm. The three-day festival runs Aug. 28â&#x20AC;&#x201C;30 and also features performances from Pearl Jam, Dave Matthews Band, Ween, Modest Mouse and the Mars Volta, along with 62 other acts on seven stages. Single day tickets are $89.50 and three-day passes are $225.50. Check www.sf outsidelands.com for more details.

youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never seen one of these Final Destination films, the plot always goes exactly like this: a bunch of kids are about to be crushed by some random disaster (plane crash, malfunctioning roller coaster, airborne race car), when one of them has a psychic vision of the impending doom and saves their lives. Death, however, does not give up so easy, and hunts them down one by one, killing

them in increasingly ridiculous ways. And thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s usually a big ironic finish of some type. The point: you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cheat fate, or Death. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get ya. Now, since this franchise is clearly out of ideas, I will generously offer this one that I came up with 20 seconds ago: Final Sunglasses Destination. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m always losing any pair of sunglasses within a day of buying them, right? So in this movie, I almost forget them in various places, like a cafĂŠ, or a restaurant,

or a petting zooâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;you get the picture. But my psychic powers allow me to remember them just before I walk out.

At the end, though, after saving them like 50 times, I sit on them in the car and crush them. See, ironic!

103 min.) Writer-director Rob Zombie returns with a sequel to his ponderous, grim remake of John Carpenterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s classic, Halloween. The funny thing is that the

original Michael Myers sequel, 1981â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Halloween 2, was pretty hilariously bad, so at least he has a lot less to live up to. Remember how Jamie Lee Curtis got taken to the hospital where apparently no one worked? I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if leaving nearvictims of serial killers at unsecured, practically empty hospitals is still standard procedure, but Zombieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sequel does follow the same storyline for a while before veering off in another direction.

(1984) The film that launched a thousand mockumentaries, this first feature from Rob Reiner is such a revered cult classic that nearly every line in the film has been elevated to the status of quick-draw popculture reference. And, really, why the hell not?

Besides the endlessly quotable material, this protoâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;Behind the Music, which follows a fictional British heavy metal band

American tour, served as a model for the later mock-doc films of Christopher Guest, who plays guitarist Nigel here.

You can both laugh at and love the characters, and indeed perhaps the greatest testament to the power of this film is that the fictional Spinal Tap was later transubstantiated into a real heavy metal band through sheer force of cultural will.

@3D73EA /2/; (PG; 99 min.) Hugh Dancy stars as Adam, a New Yorker with Aspergerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Syndrome, a highfunctioning autistic with empathy disorders.

Rose Byrne is Beth, his upstairs neighbor; except for a few melancholy jokes this gloomylooking date movie for very, very shy people doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go farther than boy meets girl. Director Max Mayer stays on topic; Adamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s love of outer-space exploration and the galaxies mirrors his own alienlike responses (itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s as if Mayer is telling us, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the matter, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t you like Mr. Spock?â&#x20AC;?); the reference to the childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tale about the emperorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new clothes is also supposed to celebrate Adamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pitilessly honest responses to the world around him. Comic bits by Jeff Hiller as a supercilious waiter and Mark Linn-Bale as a fauxfriendly boss help this out. The subplotting of Peter Gallagher and Amy Irving as Bethâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parents is just filler. Byrneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s channeling of the young Diane Keaton is more uncanny than anything Max does. (RvB) 27AB@71B ' (R; 113

min.) Humans and alien refugees live in close and uncomfortable proximity in Johannesburg in dystopian sci-fi thriller

by Neill Blomkamp.

The story is told documentary style, as we follow the mysterious disappearance of Wikus (Sharito Copley), ahuman employee of Multi-National United.

Included in this mix of images is also some kind of private footage, heavily digitally watermarked, that a secretive company like MNU wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want aired. During a raid on the alien camp, Wikus

is sprayed with some alien fluid. After this incident, we can cut and paste in much of David Cronenbergâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s version of The Fly, as the smarmy Wikus begins to mutate, losing his fingernails and teeth. The massive corporation he works for makes him a wanted man, and heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s forced to get the help of one of the prawns. Producer Peter Jacksonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hand is visible in the flawless animation of the bug creatures. All of the most interesting parts of this storyâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; about the otherness of the aliensâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;are kept offcamera. (RvB) # 2/GA =4 AC;;3@ (PG-13; 95

min.) Tom (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), a greeting-card writer, has his heart broken by a girl he knew for about two years. She was called Summer (Zooey Deschanel). As Tom recalls this tale in random-accessed moments, we begin to see the bigger picture.

(500) Days of Summer is allegedly an antiromantic film, but the result is yet another alterna-date movieâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a little brighter, a little more referential, than usual. The scenes donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go on so long that they wear out their welcome. And yet itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so full of negative spaceâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;places where jokes could have been planted, places where the characters could have been deepened. If only director Marc Webb had spent as much time thinking how to fill in the blanks as he spent murmuring, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be Annie Hall for our generation.â&#x20AC;? (RvB) 5 4=@13 (PG; 88 min.)

In the â&#x20AC;&#x2122;80s, there was an anime film that was called G-Force in America.

It was an American version of the Japanese TV series Gatchaman, about superhero ninjas.

Hollywood is now making a live-action film based on that same series. However, none of this really has anything to do with anything, since this is not that film.

I just couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think of anything to say about a stupid Jerry Bruckheimer spy comedy starring computer-animated guinea pigs. (SP)

(R; 90 min.) Sadly, not a sequel to Walk Hard, in which Dewey Cox gives up music to sell used cars.

And why should he? I think heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doing okay for a 15-year-old with a wife and a baby! But anyway, this comedy has Jeremy Piven selling used cars, in an attempt to turn a struggling dealership around. (SP) 6/@@G >=BB3@ /<2 B63 6/:4 0:==2 >@7<13 (PG; 153

min.) Hogwartsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; decay is showing, against lowering weather that looks like January in Iceland. The new potions professor, Horace Slughorn (Jim Broadbent), holds in his memory a key conversation with the young Tom Riddle, later to become the Hitler of the world of magic.

Dumbledore (Michael Gambon), the magicworldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Churchill, needs to know what Slughorn knows, but the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greatest wizard is starting to decay. Young Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) is now comfy enough with being called the Chosen One that he can joke about it (even if Emma Watsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hermione gives him an whack on the head when he does).

Rupert Grint is showstealing in his perennial role as ginger-nut comedy relief. (RvB) B63 6C@B :=193@

(R; 138 min.) The soldiers of Bravo Company are stationed in Baghdad for the 2004 fighting.

Central to the film is the mystery of Staff Sgt. James (Jeremy Renner) who comes in to replace a slaughtered demolition expert. Jamesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; risk-taking amazes and angers his subordinate, Sgt. Sanborn (Anthony Mackie). The suspenseful, grimly funny script is by co-producer Mark Boal.

Renner is outstanding as the inhumanly brave demolition expert.

Director Kathryn Bigelow does what Howard Hawks would do; she finds the cooperation between men of great competence in a killing trade, rather than pumping up rivalry.

Bigelow breaks through the sense of anonymity

that characterizes most Iraq war movies, where helmeted men move alike and talk the same terse slang. However, The Hurt Locker takes an essentially knightly view of the war, of men suiting up and closing their visors. Thus this is the first Iraq film an American audience can feel good about. Boalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s script does discover the hollow inside the brave James: the missing part that made him never stop to realize why he did his job. That final revelation is smart filmmaking. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just that the hollow inside this movieâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;inside almost all the war movies, even the good onesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t as easily seen. If war is a drug, as The Hurt Locker claims, whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pushing it? (RvB)

flick about William Wallace, the Scottish war hero, was hailed as a masterpiece when it came out. My question is: did Mel Gibson do this movie before he was Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs, or just before we knew he was Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs? Discuss. (Plays at Cinema 9 on Thu at 8pm.)

(Unrated; 113 min.)

Armando Iannucci, a well-known figure in British television comedy, does a scathing sort-of version of the dawn of the Iraq invasion.

James Gandolfiniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lt. Gen. George Miller is a more wrathful version of Colin Powell. Mimi Kennedy plays Millerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best ally, Karen Clarke, a career State Department diplomat with dandruffy hair and teeth that seem to be disintegrating during the middle of a crisis. Gandolfini and Kennedyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s characters are the filmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s moral centerâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the two people operating with goodwill.

We want to follow them through this sonata of collapsing spines and raving, swearing political careerists. But too often Iannucci just wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let us.

The fierce verbiage pours forth like a gusher, but the smartness outsmarts itself. (RvB) 7<5:=C@7=CA 0/AB3@2A (R;

160 min.) Quentin Tarantinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no-doubt Oscar-winning Holocaust film is the shouldhave-been true story of Operation Kino, the plot to destroy Hitlerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Gang through their own love for cinema.

Participants in the plot include sweetheart of the Reich Bridget von Hammersmark (Diana Kruger, never better); a mysterious Parisian movie-theater owner known as Emmanuelle

Mimieux (Melanie Laurent) and a drawling British film criticturned-commando (Michael Fassbender).

Opposing these flawed heroes is the smilingserpent Christoph Waltz as Hans â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Jew Hunterâ&#x20AC;? Walda. The loose cannons running around are the Basterds themselves, a band of homicidal Jewish guerrillas indebted to their leader, Brad Pittâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Aldo Raine, for 100 Nazi scalps. Yet this is a genuine art movie; nothing is as rapt here as Tarantinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s swoon over a beautiful girl on a ladder. Here in cinema form is an essay about Tarantinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fascination with and distate for the war film. (RvB) 8C:73 8C:7/ (PG-

13; 123 min.) Meryl Streepâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greatnessâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;her facility with accents, her plasticity and that uncompromising quality every really lasting actress has to haveâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;has been used to portray the limits of human suffering. In Julie & Julia, Streep gets to kick up her heels. She has such fun with the part of the cookbook writer Julia Child that sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s consistently intoxicating to watch.

Streep continues at full sail through the film,

elevated a bit on a high heels and trotting with the happy clunkiness of a Clydesdale. Childsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; distinctive voiceâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the whoop of surprise, the trill and warble when she talkedâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;makes Streepâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s part of the film enthralling. But there had to be some way to hold the film together, and sure enough disaster befalls. Half of this film is based on the hustled-into-print book version of a blog by Julie Powell about replicating all of Childsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; recipes.

Amy Adams, the most charming young actress alive, plays Julie, and sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still a horror. Director Nora Ephron tries for frankness in her script by having Julie Powell call herself a bitch. That isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enough to rehab her.

(RvB) >/>3@ 63/@B (PG13; 95 min.) Fake documentary has Charlyne Yi traveling around trying to make a documentary about love. More importantly, the set-up allows Michael Cera to play â&#x20AC;&#x153;Michael Cera,â&#x20AC;? which is all he can do anyway. And he wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sign on to the Arrested Development movie because heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s afraid of being typecast? That must be some kind of adorable joke only

people who thought Juno was cute as the dickens can understand.

The wizardly Hiyao Miyazakiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s beautiful, gentle animated entertainment for children. On a Japanese beach of today, 5-yearold Sosuke (voiced by Frankie Jonas) finds a magic talking goldfish with a human head.

Ponyo (Noah Lindsey Cyrus) is happy to live in a bucket, but she sickens in captivity. A mystical rogue wave takes her back home. We learn that Ponyoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s father is a weary undersea wizard, Fujimoto (Liam Neeson). This former human seeks to heal the oceans with magic.

Fujimoto was once the lover (or husband) of the colossal sea goddess Gran Mamare (Cate Blanchett).

Ozu-worthy moments of enchantment appear throughout. Avoiding clear stories of good and evil, Miyazaki is both Buddhist and animist, telling of the opposition of creative and destructive forces. (RvB) >=AB 5@/2 (PG-13; 89 min.) Alexis Bledel plays Ryden Malby, who moves back in with her parents after graduating from college. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what her

Director Robert Rodriguez returns to making kidâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s movies with this tale of a rock that grants wishes and how everyone in one small town goes nuts trying to get their hands on it. Rodriguez says itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;like Pulp Fiction for kids.â&#x20AC;? Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my question: what the hell could that possibly mean? Unlike so many summer movies, however, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only 89 minutes. Who likes short Shorts? (SP) B63 B7;3 B@/D3:3@¸A E743 (PG-13; 107

Astrology Free Will

By Rob Brezsny

For the week of August 26 /@73A (March 21â&#x20AC;&#x201C;April 19): What I wish for you this week is that you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be satisfied with mediocre truths; that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be a fussy perfectionist focused on cutting out waste, fraud and delusion; that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be itchy to know more about the unacknowledged games that are being played. Frustration, I hope, will be your holy fuel. Unsweetened lemonade, I trust, will be your rejuvenating drink. These are blessings, Aries, not curses! I pray that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll pick one of your scabs until it bleeds so the healing process can start overâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the right way this time.

B/C@CA (April 20â&#x20AC;&#x201C;May 20): What have you always wanted to yell from the pinnacle of the hill in the distance? This is the week to go there and yell it. What is that safe way of getting high that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve always wanted to try but never had the time for before? This is the week to try it. What is the alluring phenomenon that is always going on just outside the reach of your ordinary awarenessâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the seductive pull you have always somehow resisted? This is the time to dive in and explore it. (Thanks to John Averill for his inspiration in composing this horoscope. His tweets are at twitter.com/wiremesa.)

53;7<7 (May 21â&#x20AC;&#x201C;June 20): Adam and Eve were banished from the Garden of Eden because of an incident involving an apple, right? Wrong. Many biblical scholars suspect the fruit in question was either a fig, grape, or pomegranate. I mention this, Gemini, because I think youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be wise to review your own personal myth of exile. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to question the story you have been telling yourself about how your paradise got lost. Evidence you discover in the coming days just might suggest that everything youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve believed is at least half-wrongâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;that your origins are different from what you imagine. And as for the forbidden fruit that supposedly led you astray: You may realize that it was actually a precious medicine.

1/<13@ (June 21â&#x20AC;&#x201C;July 22): The coming week will be prime time to perform minor miracles without trying too hard. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll probably have maximum success if you refrain from hoping and worrying about achieving maximum success. The cosmic currents will be likely to bend and shape themselves to accommodate your deeper needs if you proceed on the assumption that they know, better than your little ego does, whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best for you. To get yourself in the proper frame of mind to do challenging tasks without expending strenuous effort, you might want to check out this photo spread of people practicing drunk yoga: tinyurl.com/n5z533. :3= ( July 23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Aug. 22): Are you familiar with the phenomenon known as a fire whirl? It happens on rare occasions when a fire produces a tornado-like vortex that rises up vertically, spinning madly. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s beautiful to behold but is not something you ever want to be close to. I bring this to your attention in the hope that you will not let yourself turn into the human equivalent of a fire whirl in the coming week.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not yet close to being one, but there are signs youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re headed that way. With just a modicum of adjustment, you can ensure that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be more like a blaze in a fireplace or a wild but controlled bonfire on a beachâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;not a fire whirl.

D7@5= (Aug. 23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Sept. 22): I was listening to a

Tuesday, Sep. 8 at 7 pm

sports talk show on the radio. The host had recently discovered Twitter, and was pleased with how many fans he had already accumulated. But he was not at all happy with the words â&#x20AC;&#x153;Twitterâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;tweet.â&#x20AC;? Too effeminate, he said. Not macho enough for a he-man like himself to use comfortably. In fact, he promised that he would never again refer to his Twitter messages as â&#x20AC;&#x153;tweets,â&#x20AC;? but would hereafter call them â&#x20AC;&#x153;spurts.â&#x20AC;? Instead of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Twitter,â&#x20AC;? he would say â&#x20AC;&#x153;Twister.â&#x20AC;? I encourage you to draw inspiration from his example, Virgo. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in an astrological phase when you can and should reconfigure anything that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t suit your needs or accommodate your spirit, whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the language you use, the environments you hang out in, or the processes youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re working on.

Adventures in Nonviolent Communication

Offer up your communication woes and sit back to watch Certified NVC Trainers use Nonviolent Communication with role-play to resolve it for you.

called The Andy Griffith Show ran for seven seasons on CBS. Its star, Any Griffith, played a mild-mannered sheriff in a small town in North Carolina. His sidekick was Barney Fife, a bumbling deputy with a sweet disposition. Shortly after he left the show, Griffith had a dream in which he thrashed and

pummeled his co-star. When he asked his psychiatrist about the meaning of this dream violence, the shrink speculated that he was trying to kill off his old image.

I recommend that exact strategy to you now, Libra.

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t actually wreak any real-life mayhem. Rather, see if you can have a dream or two in which you destroy a symbol of the life youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ready to leave behind.

A1=@>7= (Oct. 23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Nov. 21): What life will you be living at noon on Sept. 1, 2014? Who will you be?

How thoroughly will your dreams have come true?

What kind of beauty and truth and love and justice will you be serving? Will you look back at the time between Aug. 27 and Sept. 21, 2009, and sigh, â&#x20AC;&#x153;If only I had initiated my Five Year Master Plan at that ripe astrological momentâ&#x20AC;?? Or on Sept. 1, 2014, will you instead be able to crow, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I can truly say that in these past five years I have become the president of my own lifeâ&#x20AC;??

A/57BB/@7CA (Nov. 22â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Dec. 21): If at some future time you sell your life story to a filmmaker who makes it into a feature film, it may have a lot to do with adventures that kick into high gear in the coming weeks. The fun will start (I hope) when you decide not to merely lie back and be victimized by your signature pain any longer. This brave act will recalibrate the cosmic scales and shift the currents of destiny that f low through you. Soon you will be making progress in untangling a mystery that has eluded your insight for a long time. You will be able to uncover the guarded secrets of a source that has for some time been tweaking your personal power without your full awareness.

1/>@71=@< (Dec. 22â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Jan. 19): In his book From Heaven to Earth: Spiritual Living in a Market-Oriented World, Aaron Zerah riffs on the Hebrew word â&#x20AC;&#x153;nabal.â&#x20AC;? It describes someone whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so staunchly concentrated on practical concerns that he becomes impractical. Please donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let this be your fate anytime soon, Capricorn. For the ultimate benefit of the bottom line, disregard the bottom line for a while.

Fantasize like a teenage poet. Be as whimsical as a mystic clown. Be a sweet, fun-loving fool so you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t turn into a sour, workaholic fool. /?C/@7CA ( Jan. 20â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Feb. 18): A woman living in Chinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jilin province got married in a wedding gown with a train that was 1.4 miles long. Lin Rongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dress was decorated with 9,999 red silk roses and took three months to sew. In the spirit of her recordbreaking ritual, Aquarius I encourage you to be extravagant and imaginative as you celebrate a great union in the coming weeks. You have an astrological mandate to think big as you carry out a rite of passage that will lead to an upgrade in the role that collaboration and symbiosis play in your life.

>7A13A (Feb. 19â&#x20AC;&#x201C;March 20): Close your eyes and imagine youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in a meadow as rain falls. Inhale the aroma of the earth as the ground is soaked. Dwell in the midst of that scent for a while, allowing it to permeate your organs and nerves. Feel its life-giving energy circulating through you. Give yourself to the memories it evokes. In my astrological opinion, experiences like this are what you need most in the coming week. Can you think of some others that would speak directly to your animal intelligence?
