Rhapsodies Step Down, Efren

Supervisor Carrillo brings discredit to county, Latino community

BY THE SONOMA LATINO PAC

T

he Sonoma Latino PAC believes that two arrests in the past 10 months, coupled with an abrupt and ill-conceived return to duty, show that Supervisor Efren Carrillo is not fit to serve as a county supervisor in the 5th District.

In addressing the county last Tuesday, Supervisor Carrillo attempted to deflect his arrests as a “personal” issue that has no bearing on his work. “Amidst this torrent of well-deserved and justified criticism directed toward me, I note that little of this criticism relates to the performance of my official duties,” Carrillo said.

We disagree. Being arrested while inebriated and dressed only in underwear and socks, while trying to initiate contact with a nonconsensual constituent in his neighborhood, violates Section 10.3 A.(3) of Sonoma County’s Civil Service Code and qualifies as “conduct which brings discredit to the county.” Most county employees would be fired after egregious behavior such as this, and Supervisor Carrillo should at the very least be subject to the same standards as county employees, indeed if not a higher standard altogether.

Supervisor Carrillo’s history of poor decision-making now includes a hurried attempt to return to work with little notice or preparation. Does he believe that the serious crimes for which he was arrested can be forgotten after a hurried and contrived “rehab experience”? If so, his behavior is a disrespectful minimization of what must have been a terrifying experience for his victim.

We endorsed Supervisor Carrillo due to his self characterization as “a role model for the Latino Community.” His arrest is a significant blow to the community we represent. Thus, it is imperative that we as an organization send a message that we do not condone his actions.

We request that Mr. Carrillo resign his position immediately. We ask our brothers and sisters in the Hispanic/Latino community to also let the community know that Latinos do not condone the recent conduct that resulted in Supervisor Carrillo’s arrest. Supervisor Carrillo’s career is not more important than the best interests of our community and the safety and security of women and girls in their homes.

Efren Carrillo has a court date to discover what formal charges he faces on Friday, Aug. 30.

Twelve Bars & the Truth

Great to know the blues are alive and well in Sonoma County (“Rebirthing the Blues,” Aug. 21).

I run the Tuesday Bluesday Jam every other Tuesday night at Aubergine in Sebastopol, and Levi Lloyd runs it on the alternate Tuesdays.

So every Tuesday night there are some rippin’ blues happening at Aubergine, featuring some of the best local players.

a new hotel. (“Ban the Boutique,” Aug. 21). People will also be going to bars regardless of a new hotel. People will also be going to tasting rooms regardless of a new hotel.

People need to not drink and drive.

Sebastopol lost its small-town charm years ago. Sebastopol has more wine grapes being planted, and tasting rooms are everywhere. I think this is not worth fighting against. The owner of French Garden is a responsible, involved member of the Sebastopol community.

Huh? Gabe, Secular Humanist Fundie, Evolutionist kool-aid drinker . . . . . get real and step up to the mic . . . . . “sound and fury signifying nothing,” say the Darwinists when their epistemic hands are cuffed, there is no there, there, nada, no thing, nothing (“Parental Advisory,” Aug. 14). Let’s go back to Phil 101, without an objective standard, God, you have nothing to rail against. Shut your bohemian piehole up and cry out for God’s grace to have mercy on you if He should so ordain such a great feat.

Otherwise, continue your pathetic railing against all true Truth and incur the justdeserved wrath that has been part of your DNA matrix from a little baby boy.

Hotel Not the Problem People will be winetasting regardless of

Nuisance Houses How does Sonoma County feel about “nightly rentals” / nuisance boarding houses springing up in many residentially zoned neighborhoods?

The activity compromises cohesive and familial surroundings, neighbor accountability, etc., when most towns have adequate accommodations in commercial areas. Inherent noise at all hours, traffic, internet clients, etc. Very disconcerting. Compromises our quaint Sonoma County neighborhoods.

Mothers & Addiction I commend Karla Garrison for her courage in making public the thoughts and feelings of moms dealing with the pain and horrors of addiction (“Save Yourself,” Aug. 14). Her message of recovery is one that needs to be heard.

Two resources to help in regaining one’s own life and working on recovery for oneself are Nar-Anon and the National Alliance on Mental Illness

THIS MODERN WORLD

By Tom Tomorrow

The first step toward a rewarding career is making the decision to get the right education. Empire College students are enrolled in comprehensive programs designed to develop marketable skills and entrepreneurial thinking.

(NAMI). Nar-Anon is a 12-step meeting which supports families dealing with drug addiction. Meets every Wednesday in Sebastopol from 4pm to 5pm at the Community Church. NAMI offers a dualdiagnosis support group for families dealing with a loved one with drug addiction and mental illness, which meets the second Monday of each month from 4pm 6pm at the Sonoma County Mental Health clinic on Chanate Road in Santa Rosa. Over 60 percent of addicts are also coping with mental health issues. While recovery is possible, I believe that support is essential on the difficult and challenging journey.

Rick Bartalini, the manabout-themusicindustry and former talent buyer for the Wells Fargo Center, has found a new home at the Green Music Center. Three years after splitting ways with the Wells Fargo Center, Bartalini is on staff at SSU, hired to book shows for an 18–25 student demographic under the center’s On Campus Presents banner.

“I’ve known Rick for years,” says Larry Furukawa-Schlereth, the GMC’s executive director, who kept an eye on Bartalini’s successful shows with Bill Maher, Willie Nelson, Diana Ross and others over the past three years.

“He’s always had a strong interest in what’s happening with the Green Music Center.”

Eventually, Bartalini will have three venues as his playground: the center’s existing main hall, the new SSU student center opening in October, and a large outdoor pavilion with seating for 10,000, projected to open the summer of 2015.

SELF-DETERMINATION Agustin Garcia is planning an upcoming Gathering of Native Americans specifically for youth.

Honoring Heritage Upcoming Native American gathering to address sense of youth belonging BY LEILANI CLARK

A

n online memorial slideshow for Brent Bearskin Smith, a Santa Rosa teenager who committed suicide on Nov. 13, 2011, tells the story of a somewhat typical teen. The dark-haired and dark-eyed young man wears baggy pants and “Latin Rollers” T-shirts, smiles at car shows, hangs out at

barbecues with friends, hugs girls and loads up on food at potlucks.

What’s not so typical are the shots of Smith dancing in traditional Pomo dance attire, an elaborate orange headdress covering his eyes and a wooden flute in his mouth. Taken together, the photos tell a story of a young man caught between two cultures: one that took Smith to the edge of gang violence, and another that

connected him to his heritage as a member of the Round Valley Indian Reservation.

And Smith was not alone.

“These kids don’t know which way to go; they’re being pulled left and right,” says Agustin Garcia, project coordinator at the Sonoma County Indian Health Project (SCIHP).

According to Garcia, Smith’s scenario is all too common—young Native Americans caught between two worlds, feeling they ) 10

The outdoor pavilion, boosted by a $15 million donation and namingrights deal from Mastercard, still needs $3.7 million more for completion, Furukawa-Schlereth says. (Meanwhile, the student recital hall needs about $625,000 for completion, and “I feel very confident that we’re gong to get that done by the end of the calendar year,” says FurukawaSchlereth, hoping for a fall 2014 opening.)

Bartalini, who during his time at the Wells Fargo Center gained a reputation in the entertainment industry for attending to artists’ every need and creatively courting them to return, has already assisted the Green Music Center with a Josh Groban concert last month. An upcoming show with Lyle Lovett and John Hiatt is slated for Nov. 18.

have no place to call their own.

For this reason, SCIHP, with support from the Family Service Agency of Marin, is holding a Gathering of Native Americans (GONA) speciďŹ cally for Native American youth ages 12 to 17 at the Marin Headlands from Aug. 30– Sep. 2. The GONA curriculum has been applied to numerous events around the country, but the upcoming gathering is the ďŹ rst event of its kind in the Bay Area.

Garcia, himself a member of the Elem band of Pomo in Lake County, calls the GONA a “template� for the four-day ceremony, bringing together Native American youth in the Bay Area and helping them to develop “a sense of belonging.�

According to the GONA training manual, one element of human growth is addressed each day, beginning with “belonging,� followed by “mastery,� “interdependence� and “generosity.�

The curriculum for the Marin Headlands GONA has been tailored to address speciďŹ cs of Pomo life, and delves into the history of the area, with the arrival of the Spanish, the Mexicans, the Gold Rush and forced boarding schools run by the U.S. Department of War—and the tragic implications for native cultures in the Bay Area, which were decimated by the imposition of Western cultural economics and values, according to Garcia. “We live in a society where we’re not seen or even talked about,â€? he adds. “The version of history we learn in public schools was not written by our own people. There’s such a dark history that nobody wants to discuss.â€? The goal of the second day of the GONA, “mastery,â€? is to address this history, speciďŹ cally in California, where tribes are smaller and entire villages were wiped out overnight by mercenaries like the Humboldt Minutemen.

Those who have studied the issue, like Garcia, trace the high rates of suicide and drug and alcohol abuse among Native American youth to unaddressed trauma, compounded by unpleasant and often abusive experiences in boarding schools

and handed down through native families.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, suicide is the second leading cause of death among American Indian and Alaska natives aged 15–24, right behind accidents.

The suicide rate for American Indian teens and young adults is 2.5 times higher than the national average for the same age group, averaging about 31 per 100,000 in comparison to the national average of 12.2 per 100,000.

‘These kids don’t know which way to go; they’re being pulled left and right.’ The national epidemic has hit home locally with the 2011 suicide of 18-year-old Sam Benzor, followed

by Brent Bearskin Smith’s just a few days later. Both were former Elsie Allen students and danced together in a Santa Rosa–based Pomo Indian youth dance troupe.

The ďŹ nal two days of the GONA builds roads toward healing, with youth discussing ways they can develop healthy community connections. According to Dr. Leon WakeďŹ eld, director of behavioral health at the Sonoma County Indian Health Project, the communitybuilding element is just one part of a multi-step effort to step up youth services for Native American youth—seven different tribes are represented at SCIHP—in addition to increasing collaboration between counties and developing suicide prevention efforts in what’s called “Indian Country.â€? “Our most important thing is to stress prevention,â€? says WakeďŹ eld, “To stress that there’s a place where kids can come to talk about what’s going on in their lives and try to create bonds among the elders, the adults and the kids.â€?

Before his name was plastered on bottles of wine, Fred MacMurray was an actor most famous for roles in Double Indemnity, The AbsentMinded Professor and My Three Sons. Though successful, MacMurray, referred to by friends as “the thrifty multimillionaire, remained humble, driving a VW squareback and bringing a brown-bag lunch to . (MacMurray was generous, though—in the 1950s, he called up Hugh Codding, developer of Montgomery Village in Santa Rosa, to offer a wooden covered wagon from his ranch for Codding’s new shopping center, where it remained a landmark for decades.)

MacMurray’s original intent when purchasing land in the Russian River Valley in 1941 was to establish a cattle ranch.

The property remained in this form until MacMurray’s death in 1991, which led E. & J. Gallo to purchase it five years later. Keeping its wine under the label MacMurray Ranch and hiring MacMurray’s daughter, Kate, as spokesperson, the company is now one of the largest sellers in the industry.

This year’s highlight of Sonoma Wine Country Weekend, Taste of Sonoma occurs at the now historic MacMurray Ranch.

Kate, who still lives on the ranch, invites attendees to indulge in cuisine provided by over 60 chefs and sip vino from over 200 wineries. With wine seminars, cooking demonstrations and more, Taste of Sonoma delivers one of the best glimpses into the wine country. Catch this perspective Saturday, Aug. 31, at MacMurray Ranch.

BY JAMES KNIGHT

S

ome say that wine is art’s best friend. Just judging from much of the “wine country” art on view in local tasting rooms, however, I’d hazard to guess that the jury’s still out on that one. In fact, some say, the jury’s been drinking. Wait, this just in— the jury’s totally wasted, and they’re not coming back.

Here’s a winery with a winning strategy for bringing art to their wine labels and winning the loyalty of wine fans at the same time: put a dog in it. Mutt Lynch was started back in 1995 by Chris and Brenda Lynch, wine-industry veterans who wanted to launch a smartly focused wine brand that addressed their interests as animal-rescue advocates. And so it was. Mutt Lynch has been lauded by both The Wine Advocate and Dog Fancy magazines, and was named “Best Dog-Friendly Winery” by Bay Woof readers. A portion of proceeds benefit various organizations, from the Marin County Humane Society to NorCal Portuguese Water Dog Rescue.

Sharing a homely cellar just south of Healdsburg with Mietz Cellars and Deux Amis wineries, Brenda spends harvest as winemaker, while Chris is busy training retailers to heel—one might guess—as president of Terlato Wine Group. The tasting room, a couple of boards across two wine barrels, is dog-friendly, as are the spit buckets on the cellar floor—if your dog is into that kind of thing. Food pairings include a jar full of milk bones, and tchotchkes include eco-friendly poop bags. When you buy a case of wine, the 12th slot is filled with a dog treat or toy.

The 2010 “Fou Fou le Blanc” Central Coast Sauvignon Blanc ($13.99) does not—repeat—does not sport a New Zealand–like note of cat pee—more like honeydew melon, with a sweet finish. The 2012 Rosie Rosé ($13.99) is a Sweet Tart of a Zinfandel rosé, while the 2007 Portrait of a Mutt Zinfandel ($13.99) may be most familiar to local market shoppers—brambleberry thicket, juicy and rustic.

The top of the line, 2009 “Man’s Best Friend” Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel ($24.99) is also reasonably priced. Lap up the mocha, blueberry, blackberry, and licorice flavor; the finish is dry, but not cat-tongue dry. The rare and alluring 2011 MBF Charbono ($24.99), from Napa Valley’s Frediani vineyard, smells like slumbering plums dreaming that they are figs while cool midnight air drifts across a bed made of licorice. Good thing plums don’t allow their dogs to sleep on the bed, or it would’ve just smelled like dog.

Mutt Lynch Winery, 602 Limerick Lane, Healdsburg. By appointment only, Wednesday–Sunday, 11am–4pm. Tasting fee, $5. 707.942.6180.

Monty Python lives in hilarious ‘Spamalot’

BY DAVID TEMPLETON

T

hose unfamiliar with Monty Python and the Holy Grail will probably be surprised, and a bit appalled, at the tastechallenged exercise in existentialist vaudeville that is Spamalot.

Bu tasteless or not, it’s among the best musicals Sixth Street Playhouse has staged. Inspired by the subversive siliness of the 1975 film, Spamalot is a giddy, goofy delight—and it carries a high degree of life-affirming advice.

Well, sort of.

Eric Idle—who co-wrote the film and adapted it to the Broadway stage in 2005, and who appears as God in a clever bit of stage projection—includes many of the most memorable bits from the original film: the head-banging monks, the “Bring out your dead” guy, the obnoxious French

taunters, the Trojan rabbit, the Knights Who Say Ni, and even the fluffy bunny with sharp, nasty, pointed teeth.

The show does an exceptionally clever job of encapsulating all of the film’s teasingly indelicate mayhem. But it does more than just add a few songs and throw it up onstage. With Spamalot, Idle has taken the opportunity to also spoof the traditions and excesses of Broadway musicals in general.

Beginning with a small misunderstanding which results in a chorus of singers praising the country of Finland instead of England (“The Fisch Schlapping Dance”), the story skips back and forth between Arthur’s quest to find the Holy Grail (“Find Your Grail”) and his knights’ gradual discovery that they are actually characters in a Broadway play (“Twice in Every Show”).

Arthur, portrayed with a playful sense of stiff, authoritarian befuddlement by Barry Martin, attempts to keep order with the help of his coconut-clapping servant Patsy (Erick Weiss, a comic delight) and the occasional assistance of the sassy, sexy Lady of the Lake (Taylor Bartolucci, whose strong voice was not served on opening night by some negligent attention to her mic volume).

The knights are a motley crew.

There’s Sir Lancelot (a hilarious Mark Bradbury, who dons an outrageous French accent when necessary), the preening Sir Galahad (Evan Atwood) and Sir Robin (Trevor Hoffman), who is frightened by everything except a good tune and stops the show with a second-act number titled “You Won’t Succeed on Broadway,” lamenting the absence of Jewish entertainers in Arthur’s merry band of misfits.

Directed with confident, comic grace by Craig Miller, Spamalot is something completely different, as bracing and funny as a hit upside the head with a shovel.

Rating (out of 5): ++++ ‘Spamalot’ runs Thursday–Sunday, Aug. 23–Sept. 22, at Sixth Street Playhouse. 52 W. Sixth St., Santa Rosa.

Thursday–Saturday at 8pm; Sundays at 2 pm; Saturday matinees, Sept. 7, 14 and 21. $15–$35. 707.523.4185.

MISSION OUT OF CONTROL Sandra Bullock

stars in ‘Gravity,’ about a spacewalk gone awry.

Peak Season Fall brings smart films without the bombast

BY RICHARD VON BUSACK

F

rost is the on the pumpkin, geese are on the wing, the autumn clichés are in the newspaper and the cornucopia of cinema belches out some of its best offerings of the year.

After the underwhelment of Europa Report, ‘Gravity’ (Oct. 4) looks like it’ll have significant punch. Once upon a time, critic Pauline Kael declared the deadly Gemini-kidnapping pre-titles of You Only Live Twice more exciting than 2001: A Space Odyssey. Director Alfonso Cuarón seems to agree there was something going on in that pretitle. Gravity is a technically startling, artistically excruciating version of the astronaut’s dilemma—stuck in a space walk from which he can’t return. The previews are unbearably tense, and Cuarón has already made some of the best movies of the past few years (Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Children of Men, Y Tu Mamá También).

George Clooney and Sandra Bullock co-star.

Destin Cretton’s ‘Short Term 12’ (fall) is already one of the most applauded films of the coming season. Brie Larson

plays a young counselor at a home for volatile foster kids. Cretton worked at such a home for a couple of years, and he won an award at Sundance in 2009 for the short version of this feature film.

Highly anticipated: ‘Museum Hours’ (Sept. 20), Jem Cohen’s story of a friendship that carried out in Kuntshistorisches Museum, the 120-year-old Vienna gallery where the Hapsburgs put their treasures; the centuries of art are the backdrop to a tale of two lonely people at loose ends in that city.

I adore writing about ‘Adore’ (Sept. 6), which, under its original title Two Mothers, got used as a punching bag at Sundance this year. There are a few reasons to tune out the adverse buzz.

The director, Anne Fontaine, has shown wit and a gift for the erotic in the past.

Two first-rate actresses are in the lead, Naomi Watts and Robin Wright. Adore has a Doris Lessing novella as its source and a Christopher Hampton script, and was apparently filmed with prime 35mm photography on the coast of New South Wales. At last, the subject matter: old female friends commence affairs with each other’s sons . . .

Strange how something more ghastly would feel less ooky. ‘Machete Kills’ (Oct. 11) brings back ol’ rockface, Danny Trejo, and no more Mr. Politeness this time.

Remakes of ‘Oldboy’ (Oct. 25) and ‘Carrie’ (Oct. 18) may, in the bigger scheme of things, only function as necessary in the sense that some producer’s son really needed ermine mudflaps for his Escalade. But I am interested in what aspects of race Spike Lee will bring to retelling Park Chanwook’s captivity thriller Oldboy, just as I’m curious to see what a female director (Kimberly Peirce) will bring to a new version of Carrie. And the superb Chloë Grace Moretz has the role of the hellbound Carrie White.

The documentary ‘Inequality for All’ (Sept. 27) has Robert Reich, a familiar figure on the Sunday talk shows, delivering worrisome news about the growing gap between the hyper-rich and the working poor. Bill Condon’s ‘The Fifth Estate’ (Oct. 11) likely won’t help Julian Assange’s hurt feelings after We Steal Secrets, particularly since he’s being played by Benedict Cumberbatch—not the man to warm up one’s image.

A

dam Traub, singer and keyboardist for the Burning of Rome, has the phrase “Don’t Give Up the Ship” scrawled across the back of his synthesizer. And if anyone’s familiar with surviving misfortune, it’s this 28-yearold, whose diagnosis in his late teens with a rare muscular disorder led to a series of surgeries and the end of a promising future as guitarist in the band Nobody’s Hero.

Fortunately, the post-op downtime led Traub to the small, upright piano in the corner of his house, a move that permanently changed his musical direction.

“I propped my leg up on a stool and tinkered away, trying to figure out Beatles songs,” says Traub, on

the phone from his home in Echo Park. “I ended up taking some piano classes and studied theory to boost my ability and hone my craft.”

The Burning of Rome, who open for the Psychedelic Furs Sept. 1 at the Uptown Theatre, are the result of what started as a solo recording project. Eventually, Traub realized that he’d created an incredibly full sound—with echoes of Danny Elfman, Mr. Bungle and Pink Floyd—and he began hunting for musicians to take it live. A 2012 album, With Us, is loaded with cinematic, solidly orchestrated songs that show the fruits of that effort, netting the band a San Diego Music Award nomination.

Described as everything from a Danzig carnival ride to goth music for the new millennium, the band, Traub says, is really about creating a blitzkrieg of sounds influenced by the likes of the Buzzcocks, Ennio Morricone, Mozart and the Velvet Underground—a genre the band calls “death pop.”

The band has such avid fans back in their home base of San Diego that last year the head brewer at Pizza Port Brewing Company, one of the better Southern California breweries, created a beer in their name.

“Brewing is a spiritual process for this guy,” explains Traub. “He had the new album playing on a loop, with headphones over the fermenter, to serenade the yeast while it was fermenting—like in Italy, the winemakers will play opera to the grapes.”

The resulting beer, the Burning of Rome IPA, can be found at the brewery’s San Diego pubs. But does it taste how the band sounds?

“It did taste like the band,” says Traub with a laugh. “It had a sharp edge to it on the first sip, but then it mellowed out the further you went with it.”

The Bay Area’s Biggest Technology conference + Music Festival 70+ Acts | 12+ Venues | 4 days | 1 wristband

For Transcendence, even when the power goes off

Iggy and The Stooges

It was nearly the end of the first act.

The lead actress took her position onstage for “I Got Rhythm,” the band took it from the top, and—poof!

Lights out. Power out. Everything out in the winery ruins at Jack London State Park, where Transcendence Theatre Company played to a soldout crowd of 820 people suddenly sitting in the dark. The outage, it was soon learned, was citywide.

“Of course, we had about 10 minutes where we were, like, ‘Oh my, God, do we have to send everybody home?’” says Transcendence executive director Stephan Stubbins. But some Glen Ellen firefighters were in the house and offered to illuminate the stage via their truck’s floodlight. A couple generators were found for the PA, with “literally just enough gas to turn on but not to run,” says Stubbins, then Mike Benziger of Benziger Winery showed up from his nearby house with two cans of gas. A bullhorn was used for announcements, lanterns were scattered on the stage as makeshift footlights, and the show went on as planned under a bright moon. “It was so special,” Stubbins says of the collective wonder in the audience.

“Everybody felt like they shared something.”

There are only two more shows in Transcendence’s “Broadway Under the Stars” series, and lovers of top-notch theater songs and dances performed by nimble and quick-witted off-season professionals shouldn’t hesitate. The season-closing Gala Celebration is on Friday and Saturday, Aug. 30–31, at Jack London State Park.

2400 London Ranch Road, Glen Ellen.

7:30pm; picnicking starts at 5pm. $29–$69.

ARIES (March 21–April 19) You seem primed to act like a ram, the astrological creature associated with your sign. I swear you have that look in your eyes: the steely gaze that tells me you’re about to take a very direct approach to smashing the obstacles in your way. I confess that I have not always approved of such behavior. In the past, you have sometimes done more damage to yourself than to the obstruction you’re trying to remove. But this is one time when the headfirst approach might work. There is indeed evidence that the job at hand requires a battering ram. What does your intuition tell you?

TAURUS (April 20–May 20) “I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles)” is a raucous love song by the Scottish band the Proclaimers. In the chorus, the singer declares, “I would walk 500 miles / And I would walk 500 more / Just to be the man who walked 1,000 miles / To fall down at your door.” In 2011, a Chinese woman named Ling Hsueh told her boyfriend Lie Peiwen she would marry him if he took the lyrics of this song to heart. In response, loverboy embarked on a thousand-mile hike to the distant city where she lived. His stunt seemed to have expedited the deepening of their relationship. The two are now wed. In accordance with your current astrological omens, Taurus, I encourage you to consider the possibility of being a romantic fool like Liu Peiwen.

What playfully heroic or richly symbolic deed might you be willing to perform for the sake of love?

GEMINI (May 21–June 20) “The works must be conceived with fire in the soul but executed with clinical coolness,” said the painter Joan Miró in describing his artistic process. I recommend a similar approach to you in the coming weeks. Identify what excites you the most and will continue to inspire and energize you for the foreseeable future. Activate the wild parts of your imagination as you dream and scheme about how to get as much of that excitement as you can stand. And then set to work, with methodical self-discipline, to make it all happen.

CANCER (June 21–July 22)

My vision of you in the coming week involves you being more instinctual and natural and primal than usual. I have a picture in my mind of you climbing trees and rolling in the grass and holding bugs in your hands and letting the wind mess up your hair. You’re gazing up at the sky a lot, and you’re doing spontaneous dance moves for no other reason than because it feels good, and you’re serenading the sun and clouds and hills with your favorite songs. I see you eating food with your fingers and touching things you’ve never touched. I hear you speaking wild truths you’ve bottled up for months. As for sex? I think you know what to do.

LEO (July 23–August 22) The Japanese word senzuri refers to a sexual act of self-love performed by a man. Its literal meaning is “a hundred rubs.” The corresponding term for the female version is shiko shiko manzuri, or “ten thousand rubs.” Judging from the astrological omens, I’m guessing that the applicable metaphor for you in the days ahead will be shiko shiko manzuri rather than senzuri. Whatever gender you are, you’ll be wise to slowww wayyyy down and take your time, not just in pursuit of pleasure but in pretty much everything you do. The best rewards and biggest blessings will come from being deliberate, gradual, thorough and leisurely.

VIRGO (August 23–September 22) “A beginning is the time for taking the most delicate care that the balances are correct,” wrote science fiction author Frank Herbert. I urge you to heed that advice. According to my analysis of the astrological omens, you will oversee the germination of several new trends in the coming weeks. Future possibilities will reveal themselves to you. You will be motivated to gather the ingredients and formulate the plans to make sure that those trends and possibilities will actually happen. One of the most critical tasks you can focus on is to ensure that the balances are righteous right from the start.

LIBRA (September 23–October 22) The online Time Travel Mart sells products you might find handy in the event that you travel through time. Available

items include barbarian repellant, dinosaur eggs, time travel sickness pills, a centurion’s helmet, a portable wormhole and a samurai umbrella. I have no financial tie to this store. So when I recommend you consider purchasing something from it or another company with a similar product line, it’s only because I suspect that sometime soon you will be summoned to explore and possibly even alter the past. Be well-prepared to capitalize on the unexpected opportunities. (Here’s the Time Travel Mart: http://826la.org/store.)

SCORPIO (October 23–November 21)

Mystic poets find the divine presence everywhere. The wind carries God’s love, bestowing tender caresses. The scent of a lily is an intimate message from the Holy Beloved, provoking bliss. Even a bowl of oatmeal contains the essence of the Creator; to eat it is to receive an ecstatic blessing. But those of us who aren’t mystic poets are not necessarily attuned to all this sweetness. We may even refuse to make ourselves receptive to the ceaseless offerings. To the mystic poets, we are like sponges floating in the ocean but trying very hard not to get wet. Don’t do that this week; Scorpio. Be like a sponge floating in the ocean and allowing yourself to get totally soaked.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22–December 21) James Caan is a well-known actor who has appeared in more than 80 movies, including notables like The Godfather, A Bridge Too Far, and Elf. But he has also turned down major roles in a series of blockbusters: Star Wars, Close Encounters of the Third Kind, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, Kramer vs. Kramer, Blade Runner and Apocalypse Now. I present his odd choices as a cautionary tale for you in the coming weeks, Sagittarius. Don’t sell yourself short. Don’t shrink from the challenges that present themselves. Even if you have accomplished a lot already, an invitation to a more complete form of success may be in the offing.

CAPRICORN (December 22–January 19) “What a terrible mistake to let go of something wonderful for something real,” says a character in one of Miranda July’s short stories. I’m offering similar advice to you, Capricorn. The “something real” you would get by sacrificing “something wonderful” might seem to be the more practical and useful option, but I don’t think it would be in the long run. Sticking with “something wonderful” will ultimately inspire breakthroughs that boost your ability to meet realworld challenges.

AQUARIUS (January 20–February 18)

“There is more truth in our erotic zones than in the whole of religions and mathematics,” wrote the English artist Austin O. Spare. I think he was being melodramatic.

Who can say for sure whether such an extreme statement is accurate? But I suspect that it’s at least a worthy hypothesis for you to entertain in the coming weeks, Aquarius. The new wisdom you could potentially stir up through an exploration of eros will be extensive and intensive. Your research may proceed more briskly if you have a loving collaborator who enjoys playing, but that’s not an absolute necessity.

PISCES (February 19–March 20)

“This suspense is terrible. I hope it will last.” So says a character in Oscar Wilde’s play The Importance of Being Earnest.

I could envision you speaking those words sometime soon. Plain old drama could creep in the direction of passionate stimulation. High adventure may beckon, and entertaining stories might erupt. Soon you could find yourself feeling tingly all over, and that might be so oddly pleasant that you don’t want it to end. With the right attitude—that is, a willingness to steep yourself in the lyrical ambiguity—your soul could feed off the educational suspense for quite a while.
