FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Think about what New Mexico might look like without food production. What if we didn’t have New Mexico chile, open space or healthy crops? Food nutrition is a crucial part of

our everyday life.

All New Mexico agriculture and the consumers who enjoy our state’s products are impacted by the 2023 Farm Bill being discussed by Congress. The renewal provides an opportunity to make decisions about commodities to grow, conservation practices to invest in and requirements to establish nutrition programs such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)—through which 510,595,215 meals were provided to New Mexicans over the past 12 months as of June 15, 2023, according to the New Mexico Human Services Department. The bill also supports the Federal Crop Insurance Program, which offers subsidized policies that protect farmers against losses in yield, crop revenue or whole farm revenue.

The current Farm Bill is valued at approximately $428 billion. Get involved in the discussion, and continue to make New Mexico the special place it is! We don’t want to imagine what New Mexico would look like without the provisions being offered. Go to agriculture. sentate.gov or agriculture.house.gov to submit feedback and input.

EVENT SUN/9

Love You, Santa Fe—Mean It!

Iconic local Heather McKearnan throws a party for the entire city

There’s a common Santa Fe story wherein someone comes through town for whatever reason, planning to stay a short time, then they wake up decades later with a hankering for a Tia Sophia’s breakfast burrito and wondering what the hell even happened. And that’s the story for local legend Heather McKearnan. You likely know McKearnan from her years behind the bar at the Cowgirl or, more recently, La Reina at El Rey Court. The pandemic kept her from celebrating her 50th birthday as planned in New Orleans circa 2020, so she’s taking all those vibes and rolling them into a party this week at El Rey Court—and she’s inviting the whole city.

“My mom came to work for the Santa Fe Opera in 1982, and it became one of my parents’ favorite places to escape from New York City,” says the Brooklyn-bred McKearnan. “Santa Fe was on my radar when I decided to leave New York, but I really only thought I’d be here for six months.”

Cut to 30 years later, and McKearnan wants everyone to know she stone-cold loves this town. Perhaps it’s the pace of the city or those gorgeous vistas; it’s definitely something to do with community, she says.

“We look out for each other here,” McKearnan philosophizes. “We care about each other.”

Heather Hearts Santa Fe is thus a celebration of that, an afternoon-to-night party that finds local musical heroes like Westin McDowell and Joe West slingin’ their craft across Americana, rock, folk and more—plus pizza from Tender Fire Kitchen and other comestibles from the El Rey’s Turquoise Trailer food truck. The most exciting part of the show, though, might be the return of DJ Oona’s Trash Disco, an event that hasn’t popped off in some time but that will set the dancey tone for the later hours of the party starting at 9 pm.

“I heard Oona spin the other night for Pride, and I was just so friggin’ excited because I couldn’t get off the dance floor,” McKearnan explains. “She keeps you so engaged.”

True that. Also true: The party sounds like a chance for certain stalwart local scenes to converge again at long last.

Heather hearts Santa Fe and Santa Fe hearts her back. Oh, and there’s no cover, which always rules. (Alex De Vore)

TALKING CRIME

Local crime novelist Michael McGarrity somehow perfectly describes the Southwest while driving his readers through the desert in his gritty noir narratives. Yet after mastering how to blend the beauty of New Mexican landscapes with bad guys and blood, McGarrity finally crosses the state line in his newest standalone novel, The Long Ago. Beginning in Montana and eventually unfolding in Hollywood and Los Angeles, the story follows Raymond Lansdale as he returns home on leave from the Vietnam War to search for his missing sister. Catch the author discussing this exciting addition to his oeuvre at Collected Works this week with another local literary luminary, Carmella Padilla.

DESERT HEARTS

As we discussed back when downtown dive The Matador hosted its Sweet 16 bash this spring, it’s bizarrely difficult to accurately gauge the age of local bars and breweries. Well, we were shocked anew to discover the Santa Fe Brewing Company is not only a bit older than the still-teenaged Matador—it’s celebrating 35 years of brews, events, hangs and fun this weekend. Even better? The evening of live music, food, art demos (collage earrings, anybody?) and beer halls co-presented by ArtWalk Santa Fe doesn’t just sound like an enjoyable opportunity to indulge in New Mexican pride—it also doubles as a fundraiser for ARTsmart New Mexico, Teatro Paraguas and the Alto Arts Integration Program.

FLOAT ON

Did we just suggest catching the Studio Ghibli classic Kiki’s Delivery Service at Violet Crown Cinema a couple issues ago? Yup. And are we suggesting you kick it back even further to 1986 for a screening of Castle in the Sky? Also yup. This Miyazaki banger about young orphans embroiled in a search for a mythical city has it all: floating castles, love, adventure, sky pirates, orphans, robots; the list goes on. It’s a little bit Gulliver’s Travels and a whole lot of fun for moviegoers of any age, not to mention a fascinating glimpse into early Ghibli works that sort of planted the roots for the studio’s touchstone elements. Violet Crown screens Ghibli’s Nausicaä this week, too, if you feel like seeing both. (ADV)

Whether you know local pianist David Geist from his days playing in his eponymous cabaret room at the old Pranzo restaurant, you’re a new convert or you’re just hearing his name for the first time—get this: Geist just won a Tony Award for Best Revival of a Musical for the work he did on the re-mounting of the 1998 Harold Prince show Parade. Geist had a hand in the original production back in ’98 and jumped at the opportunity to help produce the new iteration. This time out, the show, which follows the real-life story of a Southern Jewish man falsely accused of a murder, stars Dear Evan Hansen’s Ben Platt. That alone is a huge deal, but we wanted to know how Geist felt winning the biggest theater award around ahead of his upcoming performance this week (7 pm Thursday, July 6. Free. Osteria, 58 S Federal Place, (505) 986-5858). This interview has been edited for length and clarity.

(Alex De Vore)

So you won a freaking Tony Award. What’s the show about and how are you involved?

It’s called Parade, and the reason this piece is so special to me, I was involved in the original production 25 years ago—I played rehearsal piano, so I was in a room with Harold Prince for three months while he was putting it together. I am in such awe of the genius of Harold Prince, because he had the foresight to know this would resonate. At the time, it didn’t hit with the public; it didn’t really land. It won Tony awards, but closed very quickly...Fast forward to 25 years later and I realized this show I was once so close to was being revived. I knew the lead producers because they were people I came up with in New York, so I called them, we got together

and I said I knew what this piece was about as well as anybody else.

It’s a devastating piece about antisemitism and very much in the style of West Side Story, which Harold Prince was of course involved with, and it’s really about a hate crime—the two cultures of white supremacy and Jews trying to work it out in the South, post-Civil War, pre-World War I, a very volatile time for everybody. And it’s all true. They set a real story to music. At the time, 25 years ago, I didn’t quite understand it myself, which is partly why I’m so happy to be part of this...but also because the piece really is about what’s happening currently with hate crimes all over the country. Parade is so timely today.

What does it feel like to hear your name called for such a prestigious honor?

You know, it’s interesting. I feel like this is a full-circle moment for me. I did all this work when I was in New York years ago, then made the decision to come to Santa Fe and build this whole new life here, and a life that has supported me so beautifully. But this is really about... instead of me working for Broadway, Broadway is working for me. I’m very proud to be on the other side of the experience. I was really in the trenches and I was basically killing myself; I was basically Broadway’s bitch, so it’s nice to have the industry work for me at this point. I’m totally honored by this whole experience. There isn’t anything more important to me than supporting the arts. This is my way of investing in a show that is so meaningful and is as important to me as anything else.

Does this win signal, perhaps, a more serious or regular return to the Broadway theater world in the future? It’s not about moving back to New York, but yes, I would like to venture out into this producing role and I can do it remotely. I don’t have to be in an orchestra pit to be involved with conversations and meetings or help artistically. I was even told that my experience of being a rehearsal pianist helped production—I was really involved in the nuts and bolts of how [Parade] worked.

My next venture is the tour of the show. I’m a baby onboard as far as the producing aspect, so I want to tread lightly. But also, I’m already somewhat bi-city—I’ve been doing a part-time residency [in New York City] every few months called The Nines. I don’t want to let people think I’m leaving Santa Fe, but...we’ll see.

For this year’s Illustrator’s Cup, we did away with awarding first, second and third prizes and instead focused on the idea that during one of the most demonstrably bizarre and challenging times in human history, art performs a public service. What, we wonder, is the point of anything without art? How might we learn to process our emotions without it? Feeling something can prove harder all the time as the world burns. But local artists have the

distillation of those feelings on lock. Please enjoy artist Odessa Sawyer back on the cover for the second Illustrator’s Cup in a row (last year’s “Night Drive” was dope; this year’s “Year of the Rabbit” impressed our judges mightily). We also found ourselves verklempt by the work of Matthew Cruickshank, whose “Shedding Skin,” didn’t deserve to be cropped. Then, there’s the derriere-filled classical chops of Christopher Stoll’s “Butt is it Art?” A stunner. We’re honored to present four additional works as well.

Winner

YEAR OF THE RABBIT

By Odessa Sawyer

Odessa Sawyer is an illustrator and doll maker from Santa Fe, where she lives with her husband, mom and two sons. Her artwork appears in and on the covers of middle-grade and young adult books; ad campaigns; posters; and film and television projects as well as album covers. Archive published her work as one of the 200 best illustrators worldwide for 2011 and 2014, and she won the 2019 best cover award in fiction in the New Mexico-Arizona Book Awards.

SHEDDING SKIN

By Matthew Cruickshank

“It is a place, it’s Santa Fe—my initial reaction to moving here,” says artist and traditional 2D animator Matthew Cruickshank, who is about a month and change into his move to New Mexico following time in San Francisco and his homeland of England. “Shedding Skin,” an oil painting, signals what Cruickshank hopes will

be a transition to a more traditional painting practice. “I was seeing snakes on the land, and the idea was changing to take on the land, to shed your skin,” he continues. “The more you look, the more you’ll see snake patterns, the interchanging of color and harsh lines where something stops and begins again—the shape of a snake. That’s how I felt, like I’d shed my own skin and manifested into something new.” Find more from Cruickshank on Instagram at @santafecruickshank.

BUTT IS IT ART?

By Christopher Stoll

Santa Fe-based illustrator Christopher Stoll is dedicated to the exploration and creation of fictional worlds and has written multiple self-published sci-fi fantasy books. Stoll prefers to work digitally, designing visual and narrative experiences that immerse viewers in fictional spaces.

By Christopher Zappe

ON THE SHORE

By Carolyn Patten

Carolyn Patten says she works from images she has photographed and others that appear in her dreams. She layers transparent and opaque paints and specially mixed glazes to create harmony and depth and edits out all but the most potent details, giving the work room to breathe and connect with the viewer. As she moves deeper into the work, the images become more abstract, working with

Honorable Mention

concepts of time, universal archetypes and their connections to our shared experience. She writes: “I view my life as a series of deeply gratifying, sometimes daunting, journeys into the unknown, from travels across the globe to interior travels in search of an authentic life. Time spent in Mexico and the American Southwest, working as a writer and always pushing the boundaries of what my family, peers and critics told me I could/ could not do, has opened my eyes and my heart to a few of life’s treasures.”

BUZZY COLLINS

By Brennan Barnhill

Brennan Barnhill is a cartoonist and illustrator based out of Santa Fe. Nineties animation and comics influences his pieces, which are often satirical and goofy. Most of his work aims to poke fun at all facets of modern life and culture.

• Apprentice scenes: Aug. 13 & 20

BY JULIA GOLDBERG @votergirl

Love, jealousy and political intrigue mixed with a heavy dose of religiosity drive Giacomo Puccini’s Tosca, which opened the Santa Fe Opera’s 2023 season on June 30 with gusto. First performances of Tosca in Santa Fe date to 1960, with the most recent occurring in 2012. At that time, SFR’s then-opera reviewer John Stege noted the opera’s obeisance to Aristotle’s rule of three for drama, which prescribed unity of action, time and place.

Specifically: Set in Rome in June 1800 over the course of one night and the next morning and amidst the political unrest of the Napoleonic wars, the opera is based on the five-act French melodrama La Tosca, written by Victorien Sardou with the French actress Sarah Bernhardt in mind. Puccini, who had seen the play, reshaped it into a three-act opera, with libretto by Luigi Illica and Giuseppe Giacosa (the Santa Fe Opera production runs approximately 2 1/2 hours with one 25-minute intermission, making for a relatively early night) and trimmed its focus to three main characters: painter Mario Cavaradossi, famed singer Floria Tosca and Chief of Police Baron Scarpia.

Tosca opens at the church of Sant’Andrea della Valle, where escaped Bonapartist prisoner Cesare Angelotti, sung by baritone Blake Denson, has run to hide. Cavaradossi, tenor Joshua Guerrero, offers Angelotti his help, which puts him in Scarpia’s crosshairs. Scarpia, performed by baritone Reginald Smith Jr., menaces Tosca, soprano Leah Hawkins, offering to free her lov-

er Cavaradossi if she gives herself to him. Spoiler alert: Everyone dies as the result of either murder or suicide.

Either despite or because of its gritty, sometimes-sordid plot points, Tosca—first performed in Rome in 1900—remains one of the most popular operas to date. Santa Fe’s production will have different singers performing the roles of both Tosca and Cavaradossi this summer, with Grammy Award-winning soprano Angel Blue in the former role for four performances starting later this month and Freddie De Tommaso taking over the role of Cavaradossi in August. Named one of OperaWire’s rising stars in 2019, Hawkins makes her SFO debut this summer in Tosca. Her opening night performance was riveting throughout, but her Act 2 aria “Vissi d’arte,” in which the character entreats God wondering what she has done to deserve such a fate when she only lived for love and for art, was a showstopper. I wondered if a few of the opening-night empty seats might be attributed to operagoers holding out for Blue’s later performances, but reckon those of us who saw Hawkins in the role will someday boast of catching her early in her career (and of course attending performances of both singers is always an option). Guerrero and Smith Jr. also hold their own in the propulsive show—the latter’s depiction of the sadistic Scarpia came across as particularly venal at times.

The chorus under Chorus Master Susanne Sheston, and treble Kai Edgar singing the small but pivotal role of the shepherd boy toward the end added a great deal of poignancy

and texture. The orchestra led by Conductor John Fiore was another high point of the show. Parts of the scene direction—from Director Keith Warner (in his SFO debut), scenic and costume designer Ashley MartinDavis and lighting designer Allen Hahn— were visually compelling, particularly the array of Cavaradossi’s finished paintings in contrast with the open-air backdrop in Act 1, and the homage to Italian surrealist artist Giorgio di Chirico (SFO’s materials also cite Alfred Hitchcock’s influence, which this writer failed to note). The crowded Act 2 set in Scarpia’s chambers and obscured sightlines for the background torture of Cavaradossi created more murk than seemed necessary in an otherwise visually pleasing—in so far as an opera filled with relentless suffering can be pleasing—production.

Past Lives Review

Celine Song’s feature debut wrestles the long arc of love

BY SIENA BERGT siena@sfreporter.com

First love is a tricky phenomenon to talk about, let alone capture onscreen. Almost everyone old enough to read film reviews in their spare time will have a specific face flash through their minds on hearing the phrase. But given the experience’s near-universality, there’s little a lover or a filmmaker can say about it without sounding painfully mundane. First love, especially as remembered, lives in hyper-specific details. And it doesn’t come to those who are ready for it—the potency is tangled up in the impossibility of its timing. Those twin barriers—language and time—are the primary obstacles to Nora (Greta Lee) and Hae Sung’s (Teo Yoo) rekindled childhood romance in Celine Song’s feature debut, Past Lives. But they’re also the main adversaries with which Song—mostly successfully—wrestles as a director.

Past Lives begins with a long shot across a bar of a woman and two men (Nora, Hae Sung and Nora’s husband Arthur) drinking together while an unseen couple speculates about the trio’s relationship. Sister, brother, friend? Wife, husband, lover? What are they to each other? This sole voiceover encourages the audience to cling to the tiniest details of the image but, before we have time to take a guess, the scene ends.

INDIANA JONES AND THE DIAL OF DESTINY

+ UNDERSTANDS INDY; FORD STILL RULES - ANTONIO BANDERAS ONLY ONSCREEN FOR, LIKE, TWO MINUTES

In the 15 years since Steven Spielberg’s wildly disappointing Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull hit theaters, those charged with caring for the iconic adventuring archaeologist have certainly learned a lot. Well, mostly they’ve learned what audiences want from an Indiana Jones film. The recipe is simple, really: stylized action meshed with a supernatural element steeped ultimately in real-world history. Oh, and the whip, too. Logan director James Mangold more than delivers on these elements and then some with Indy’s newest adventure, the Dial of Destiny, and it’s easily the most fun to have in a theater so far this summer.

Here, the aging Dr. Jones (Harrison Ford, duh) lives a lonely life in New York City some decades after he and his colleague Dr. Shaw (Toby Jones) stole an artifact designed by Archimedes from the clutches of the Nazi Dr. Voller (Mads Mikkelsen). The astrolabe-like device promises alarmingly powerful possibilities, which drove Shaw mad in the years that followed, but Indy kept the thing hidden away after his colleague’s death.

The fun begins when Indy’s goddaughter Helena (Phoebe Waller-Bridge) shows up to remind him how they might be able to crack the dial’s mysteries at long last. Voller, however, has

It will repeat later in the movie, only from a different angle; we never have the opportunity to fully retrace those first missed moments. We have to catch them as they come.

It’s a good lesson for the rest of the film, which is at its most achingly effective when Song’s camera obsesses over specificities like a lemon wedge in a saucer, hands on a subway pole, the patterns of traffic crossing the Brooklyn Bridge. Like the characters themselves, the filmmaking falters when Hae Sung and Nora try to put their feelings to words, which occasionally tips over into heightened dialogue that feels more appropriate to one of playwright Nora’s works than the intimate conversations onscreen.

But ultimately the pressure of time, not language, proves most difficult for both characters and director. Song gracefully elides the passage of first 12, then 24 years from the moment when 12-year-old Nora leaves

come to America as well (to work on the moon landing, which not only nods to the Nazi scientists working in America post-WWII, but does the heavy expositional lifting quite nicely) and still wants the object, too—cue globe-trotting action.

Mangold’s Indy wows in its smaller moments, which read like little love notes to premises from previous films and the radio dramas that inspired them. It also boasts top-tier car chases, train chases and explosions. More importantly, Mangold understands his audience spans generations, from the kids looking for something fun and the middle-agers who grew up shrieking with glee anytime Last Crusade was on the table, to the older folks who long for the feel of old Bogart films or have followed Dr. Jones since the start.

The emotional beats feel relatable and true, whether in the painful reminders that time moves all too quickly or that we miss our lost loved ones—or that our most thrilling days might be behind us. Still, the film posits: It’s never too late to do something big, or to try our best to correct or accept the actions we’ve taken along the way. Indy is still sexy and powerful, but he’s wiser now and more considerate in how he acts. Thus, when the final big set pieces hit the screen and the John Williams music swells with its all-too-memorable notes, it feels so right to cap off his decades and escapades on a high note. Let’s hope this is the final chapter, because it’s literally everything you could want from an Indiana Jones movie.

ASTEROID CITY

6

+ GORGEOUS AND SILLY; SOME FUN CHARACTER MOMENTS

- UNSATISFYING; ENDS SUDDENLY

Hae Sung in South Korea to the present day. But when the two finally do come together, their dynamic is so compelling and their onscreen meeting so comparatively brief that as the credits roll it seems as if some third part, some final meeting 36 years later, was left on the cutting room floor. Maybe that sense of absence intentionally echoes the bittersweet sting of first love. Maybe it’s simply the anxiety of an extremely methodical, early-career perfectionist director seeking relatively safe narrative ground. But if Past Lives leaves you wanting more, that seems a promise of significant future captivation to come from Song.

PAST LIVES

Directed by Song

With Lee and Yoo Violet Crown, CCA, PG-13, 105 min.

Filmmaker Wes Anderson returns at his pastel-laden Wes Anderson-iest with Asteroid City, an achingly beautiful film that either says very little or buries its subtext between so much desert strata it can be hard to unearth.

Presented as a television documentary about the making of a play, Asteroid City shifts between realities deftly, even funnily, though without a clearcut message or theme (isolation, maybe, or smallness?). Anchoring oneself to its characters feels more challenging than welcoming. After all, if this TV broadcast delving into the workings of a play which is then presented as a film wanted us to connect with anyone, maybe Anderson wouldn’t have begun by professing so emphatically that none of it is real. He stacks the cast with his regulars, including Jason Schwartzman, Adrien Brody, Jeffrey Wright, Willem Dafoe and Jeff Goldlbum. But these people represent a fraction of the players on hand, many of whom get lost in the fast-paced shuffle of the minimalist story.

Asteroid City embraces intrigue in its opening minutes wherein its playwright (Edward Norton) describes how he sees the staging for his reportedly popular work of the same name. Someplace in the desert lies Asteroid City, where a group of mid-pubescent scientists have arrived to claim government-funded accolades for their purportedly

impressive works in science. We spend time with each of them, and their sprawling families—including the daughter of a movie star played by Scarlett Johansson—though much of our focus lies with the Steenbeck family’s Woodrow (Jake Ryan), whose mother recently died, and his father, Augie (Schwartzman), who develops a connection with the movie star. Antics ensue as the characters speak like Gilmore Girls (read, fast and samey) and the precious pastel color scheme highlights the bitter emptiness of the desert. As Norton says in his first lines, the light is neither hot nor cold—but it is clean.

Plot-wise, however, cleanliness seems an afterthought. We lose track of characters easily and don’t get to know them in the slightest. Even Tom Hanks can’t elicit thrills as the father-in-law to Schwartzman’s widower Augie. Somewhere in the distance, Margot Robbie stands by, waiting for her handful of lines—here comes Tilda Swinton, a stranger to the American Southwest just like the rest of ‘em.

Anderson-heads will be quick to defend the sparse storytelling, but beautiful or not, it’s frustrating to observe the man who crafted the dense and dark brilliance of Rushmore or the weird fun of Isle of Dogs lean so heavily into style over substance. Ateroid City sure is pretty, though, and fun-ish, too; or at least light-chuckle-funny. It ends with a whimper rather than a bang, though. Odd, that, for a film set outside an atom bomb test range. There are no answers, but looking back, it’s hard to say if there were ever really questions, either. (ADV) Violet Crown, PG-13, 105 min.

FRIDAY, JULY 7 @6PM Michael McGarrity, The Long Ago in conversation with Santa Fe author Carmella Padilla

PSYCHICS

MIND BODY SPIRIT

Rob Brezsny Week of July 5th

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Genius physicist Albert Einstein said, “The formulation of a problem is often more essential than its solution, which may be merely a matter of mathematical or experimental skill. To raise new questions, new possibilities, to regard old questions from new angles, requires creative imagination and makes real advances.” What he said here applies to our personal dilemmas, too. When we figure out the right questions to ask, we are more than halfway toward a clear resolution. This is always true, of course, but it will be an especially crucial principle for you in the coming weeks.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): “Every great advance in natural knowledge has involved the absolute rejection of authority.” So said Taurus biologist and anthropologist Thomas Huxley (1825-1895). I don’t think you will have to be quite so forceful as that in the coming weeks. But I hope you’re willing to further your education by rebelling against what you already know. And I hope you will be boisterously skeptical about conventional wisdom and trendy ideas. Have fun cultivating a feisty approach to learning! The more time you spend exploring beyond the borders of your familiar world, the better.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Hooray and hallelujah! You’ve been experimenting with the perks of being pragmatic and well-grounded. You have been extra intent on translating your ideals into effective actions. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen you so dedicated to enjoying the simple pleasures. I love that you’re investigating the wonders of being as down-to-earth as you dare. Congratulations! Keep doing this honorable work.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): I wrote my horoscope column for over ten years before it began to get widely syndicated. What changed? I became a better writer and oracle, for one thing. My tenacity was inexhaustible. I was always striving to improve my craft, even when the rewards were meager. Another important factor in my eventual success was my persistence in marketing. I did a lot of hard work to ensure the right publications knew about me. I suspect, fellow Cancerian, that 2024 is likely to bring you a comparable breakthrough in a labor of love you have been cultivating for a long time. And the coming months of 2023 will be key in setting the stage for that breakthrough.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Maybe you wished you cared more deeply about a certain situation. Your lack of empathy and passion may feel like a hole in your soul. If so, I have good news. The coming weeks will be a favorable time to find the missing power; to tap into the warm, wet feelings that could motivate your quest for greater connection. Here’s a good way to begin the process: Forget everything you think you know about the situation with which you want more engagement. Arrive at an empty, still point that enables you to observe the situation as if you were seeing it for the first time.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You are in an astrological phase when you’ll be wise to wrangle with puzzles and enigmas. Whether or not you come up with crisp solutions isn’t as crucial as your earnest efforts to limber up your mind. For best results, don’t worry and sweat about it; have fun! Now I’ll provide a sample riddle to get you in the mood. It’s adapted from a text by David Wallechinsky and Irving Wallace. You are standing before two identical closed doors, one leading to grime and confusion, the other to revelation and joy. Before the doors stand two figures: an angel who always tells the truth and a demon who always lies. But they look alike, and you may ask only one question to help you choose what door to take. What do you do? (Possible answer: Ask either character what the other would say if you asked which door to take, then open the opposite door.)

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): I found a study that concluded just 6.1. percent of online horoscopes provide legitimate predictions about the future. Furthermore, the research indicated, 62.3 percent of them consist of bland, generic

pabulum of no value to the recipient. I disagree with these assessments. Chani Nicholas, Michael Lutin, Susan Miller, and Jessica Shepherd are a few of many regular horoscope writers whose work I find interesting. My own astrological oracles are useful, too. And by the way, how can anyone have the hubris to decide which horoscopes are helpful and which are not? This thing we do is a highly subjective art, not an objective science. In the spirit of my comments here, Libra, and in accordance with astrological omens, I urge you to declare your independence from so-called experts and authorities who tell you they know what’s valid and worthwhile for you. Here’s your motto: “I’m the authoritative boss of my own truth.”.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Is it a fact that our bodies are made of stardust? Absolutely true, says planetary scientist Dr. Ashley King. Nearly all the elements comprising our flesh, nerves, bones, and blood were originally forged in at least one star, maybe more. Some of the stuff we are made of lived a very long time in a star that eventually exploded: a supernova. Here’s another amazing revelation about you: You are composed of atoms that have existed for almost 14 billion years. I bring these startling realities to your attention, Scorpio, in honor of the most expansive phase of your astrological cycle. You have a mandate to deepen and broaden and enlarge your understanding of who you are and where you came from.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): I foresee that August will be a time of experiments and explorations. Life will be in a generous mood toward you, tempting and teasing you with opportunities from beyond your circle of expectations. But let’s not get carried away until it makes cosmic sense to get carried away. I don’t want to urge you to embrace wild hope prematurely. Between now and the end of July, I advise you to enjoy sensible gambles and measured adventures. It’s OK to go deep and be rigorous, but save the full intensity for later.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Is there a crucial halfconscious question lurking in the underside of your mind? A smoldering doubt or muffled perplexity that’s important for you to address? I suspect there is. Now it’s time to coax it up to the surface of your awareness so you may deal with it forthrightly. You must not let it smolder there in its hiding place. Here’s the good news, Capricorn: If you bring the dilemma or confusion or worry into the full light of your consciousness, it will ultimately lead you to unexpected treasure. Be brave!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In Larry McMurtry’s novel Duane’s Depressed, the life of the main character has come to a standstill. He no longer enjoys his job. The fates of his kids are too complicated for him to know how to respond. He has a lot of feelings but has little skill in expressing them. At a loss about how to change his circumstances, he takes a small and basic step: He stops driving his pickup truck and instead walks everywhere he needs to go. Your current stasis is nowhere near as dire as Duane’s, Aquarius. But I do recommend you consider his approach to initiating transformation: Start small and basic.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Author K. V. Patel writes, “As children, we laugh fully with the whole body. We laugh with everything we have.” In the coming weeks, Pisces, I would love for you to regularly indulge in just that: total delight and release. Furthermore, I predict you will be more able than usual to summon uproarious lifeaffirming amusement from the depths of your enchanted soul. Further furthermore, I believe you will have more reasons than ever before to throw your head back and unleash your entire self in rippling bursts of healing hysterical hilarity. To get started, practice chuckling, giggling, and chortling for one minute right now.

Homework: What’s the smartest, safest gamble you could take?
