Is it in the stars?

Today I had the first astrological reading I've had in a decade or more. Astrologer Sare is my friend's longtime astrologer, and he swears by her. Interestingly, she's a former journalist from the South who turned her attention to what she calls Astrophysics and has built a steady following. Indeed, she gave me quite a profound reading. Summed up so many of my life issues and nascent instincts, without knowing anything about me. Among other things, she said I will be doing performances to help others heal in the future. She encouraged me in a direction I have already been contemplating. Best thing she said? "The second half of your life will be a lot more fun and interesting than the first."
