"You have been on a profitable run for some time and with Jupiter, planet of good fortune, moving into one of the better areas of your chart today that run will continue for some time yet. Don’t forget to spread around a little of what you gain."

01.12.19

“Do what feels right to you over the coming week, not what other people tell you should feel right. The more someone goes out of their way to convince you of something the more you should doubt they know what they are talking about.”

30.11.19

“Last minute changes to travel and social plans may have to be made this weekend but there is no point fuming because you don’t have the power to change things. Just go with the flow and strive to stay calm. If you can’t make it, then fake it!”

29.11.19

“Ideas seem to be flooding into your mind at the moment, which is great, but for some strange reason you seem reluctant to follow up on them, and that’s a shame. Don’t let others persuade you to lower your sights – instead, aim higher than ever before.”

28.11.19

“Neptune’s influence sometimes inclines you to be too generous for your own good, and that is something you will need to watch out for over the next few days. Do what you can for people who depend on you but don’t do it all.”

27.11.19

“Some of the things you have been thinking about of late have been rather deep, and it’s quite possible that you have tied your mind in knots. As from today though a simpler and clearer picture will begin to emerge. Don’t lose sight of it again.”

26.11.19

“The path you are on may be tough but you are tougher and over the next few days you will find it easy to deal with challenges both big and small. Today’s new moon encourages you to think deeply and, where appropriate, express yourself forcefully.”

25.11.19

“ A financial incentive of some kind will be offered to you over the next two or three days and while it may be attractive you must think carefully before you accept. Will what you are asked to do to earn the money fit in with your long-term plans?”

24.11.19

“Even a Scorpio needs a helping hand once in a while and you will certainly need one this week. Don’t think of it as a sign of failure that you had to ask for assistance – if anything it is a sign of maturity. Recognize and accept your own limitations.”

23.11.19

“You don’t have to buzz around trying to get 10 things done in the time it takes most people to do just one. The goals you are aiming for are goals you have set for yourself and you can reset them any time you please. Do less but do better.”

22.11.19

“The sun leaves your sign today and you should wish it a fond farewell. The efforts you have made in recent weeks have had their desired effect and it won’t be long before you see the benefits, some of which are sure to be financial.”

21.11.19

“You have been very much in control of events in recent weeks, but now the sun is leaving your sign certain things won’t come quite so easy to you. That’s fine. In fact it’s good. You do best when you are challenged, not when you are coasting.”

20.11.19

“You are in a decisive frame of mind now that Mercury in your sign is working for you again, and woe betide anyone who tries to stand in your way. At last you seem to have woken up to the fact that you can, within obvious limits, do as you please.”

19.11.19

“Don’t waste any more time trying to analyze your motives, just get on and do what has to be done and be happy in the knowledge that you are making things happen again. Mars in your sign will endow you with no end of energy and ambition.”

18.11.19

“By all means work hard and have fun this week, but start looking for ways you can wind down a bit too. Mars is about to leave your sign, so your energy levels may dip a little over the next few days. It’s quite natural, so don’t fight it.”

17.11.19

"Why are you looking over your shoulder as if something is about to jump out of the shadows at you? You need to get over it soon because there will be opportunities aplenty over the next few weeks. Don’t waste your time on senseless fears."

16.11.19

"You have been exceedingly busy of late, but even if you are feeling physically and mentally weary you won’t be slowing down, not even for a minute or two. With so much momentum pushing you on you could not stop if you wanted to – and you don’t."

15.11.19

"There will be times over the next few days when you wish you were somewhere else, doing something else, but the fact is you are precisely where you are supposed to be, so stop griping and start making the most of your current situation."

14.11.19

"There are so many openings and opportunities available to you now but you seem in no hurry to make the most of them. In a way it’s good that you are so relaxed, but don’t get so relaxed that you miss out on something truly special."

13.11.19

"You don’t need to worry about anything. Yesterday’s full moon no doubt made you anxious about a partnership or relationship but by the end of today it will be clear that what you feared the most simply isn’t going to happen, not now, not ever."

12.11.19

“Certain people will try to make life difficult for you today but they will only succeed if you allow yourself to get angry. If, on the other hand, you stay calm and treat it all as a joke then they are the ones who will look bad.”

11.11.19

"The full moon warns that you need to plan your moves carefully, especially if they could affect the people around you. You don’t live in isolation (though sometimes you think you might like to) so be aware that your actions have consequences."

10.11.19

"The more someone tries to convince you they can be trusted the tighter you should hold on to your wallet. You are right to be suspicious – it’s not a sign of bad faith. You know trust has to be earned, not begged or bargained for."

09.11.19

"You’ve had your fill of certain people telling you how to live and now you must tell them to get lost. Better still, find ways to put some distance between you so they can no longer be heard. You owe them nothing, so by all means get tough."

08.11.19

“The planets warn if you come on too strong with someone today you will turn them against you. Just because you have a forceful personality does not mean you should use it on every occasion. Sometimes a softer approach works better.”

07.11.19

"You feel that you are not getting enough from a relationship in comparison to what you are putting into it, but is that really the case? Something else you might like to ask yourself: is it possible to try too hard? Yes it is, and yes you are."

07.11.19

"You don’t need more in the way of money and possessions to be fulfilled, you just need something to motivate you. What is the one thing that inspires you the most? Do only that today and do it better than ever before."

06.11.19

"You have made efforts above and beyond the call of duty in recent weeks and they have not gone unnoticed. Between now and the weekend someone in a position of authority will make it clear they think highly of your skills. Highly enough to pay you more? Maybe."

06.11.19

"If you have any chores that need to be finished then get on with them as early in the day as possible. Come mid-afternoon there will be far more interesting matters to deal with and you don’t want minor stuff holding you back in any way."

05.11.19

"There is nothing to be gained by pretending that a financial decision you took a while back was anything less than disastrous. Instead, look at what happened with unbiased eyes and learn what you can from the situation. Next time you’ll do much better."

04.11.19

“Whatever challenges you face over the coming year you will deal with them all with ease. There is something in the Scorpio nature that enjoys being put to the test and even the powers that be will be impressed with your creativity and can-do attitude.”

03.11.19

“You seem to be out of favour with someone in a position of power and you cannot for the life of you work out why. Most likely it’s because of something you said which, to you, sounded perfectly reasonable but, to them, sounded more like an insult.”

03.11.19

“It may be tempting to gossip about someone you know but the planets warn you need to be careful. If you talk trash about other people they may decide it’s okay to talk trash about you, and almost certainly you will come off worse.”

02.11.19

“Don’t rush into something that you are not 100 per cent certain is in your best interests. At this time of year you are desperate to achieve things but you also need to be aware of events going on around you – and how they could impact on you.”

30.10.19

"Do you back out of an emotional commitment of some kind, or do you try to find ways to make it work? Chances are you have just about used up all your options, so maybe on this occasion it would be best to end it gracefully."

29.10.19

"You will have to deal with someone you don’t much like or respect today, but you must not let your animosity toward them show. The simple fact is you are going to need their assistance, so put on an act and pretend that you like them."

28.10.19

"Any day can be a new beginning and the new moon in your sign makes this the day you can, if you wish, start again with a clean conscience and a blank slate. Listen to what your inner voice is trying to tell you – then act on it decisively."

18.09.19

“Self-doubt is something you seldom have to worry about but as the cosmic picture changes over the next few days your belief may slip a bit. Stick to what you know you can handle and don’t take any unnecessary risks. Play it safe for now.”

16.09.19

“You may be tempted to risk a lot on something you believe will work in your favour but can you be 100 per cent certain of that? There is no such thing as a sure thing so, yes, take that risk, but have a fallback plan . . . just in case.”

15.09.19

"Mercury moves back into your sign on your birthday, which suggests you have some kind of unfinished business to take care of. What is it that worries you and keeps you awake at night? Make resolving that issue the focus of the coming year."

Potlatch Appropriation Strategies: Seattle Free For All

"The 1913 started with high hopes but was marred by the "Potlatch Riots". On the first day of the Potlatch some soldiers and sailors were involved in a fistfight when an IWW Industrial Workers of the World speaker supposedly 'insulted their uniforms'.

A newspaper story the next day further inflamed the situation resulting in soldiers and sailors aided by civilians looting and burning the offices of the IWW and the Socialist Party. A rear admiral in charge of the reserve fleet expressed regret about the outbreak and said he had dispatched a patrol to round up the troublemakers.

On July 19, 1913, Mayor George Cotterill, responding to street riots the previous evening during the Potlatch Days festival, declared an emergency, and assumed direct control of the police, closed saloons, banned street speakers, and attempted to temporarily close down The Seattle Times, which he believed provoked the riots.

Despite the unrest on land, the 1913 Golden Potlatch staged three hydroplane races off Madrona Park: a 15 mile race for 16-footers, a 20 mile contest for 26 footers and a 30 mile free for all."
