Mystic Molly's Horoscopes

Mystic Molly's Horoscopes for November 1997 are:


ARIES

Whilst sitting in your lounge this month, your attention is caught by a sudden movement at the window. Rushing up to investigate, you discover that it is the strange old man from number 29, dressed as a big grey rabbit, and jumping up and down your front garden on a pogo stick.

"Happy Easter, young chipper!" he yells, before pelting you mercilessly with rotten eggs. As you take cover behind your curtains, you catch one final glimpse of him pogoing off down the street, singing rousing German drinking songs to himself whilst attempting to throw eggs in your neighbours' letterboxes.

Your lucky number is 1, and your lucky colour this month is grey.


TAURUS

Whilst out tickling trout this month you happen to bump into top music star Harry Connick Jr. The suave and charming songster sweeps you off your feet by crooning old style love songs at you until you pass out due to sheer excitement.

When you wake up you find to your dismay that Harry has sold you to the circus, where it appears your days are to be spent as a knife-thrower's assistant. With the words to "It Had To Be You" still echoing in your ears, you vow never again to trust Frank Sinatra copyist artistes and begin to plot your escape.

Your lucky breed of dog for the month is the husky and your lucky pattern is check.


GEMINI

After getting the movie "Babe" out on video this month, you attempt to teach your pet hamster Timothy how to round up sheep. After a few frustrating days persuading him to come out of his cage, you eventually get Timothy out into the local farm's field, placing him on the ground in front of half a dozen sheep.

Standing a few feet behind him, your labours come to naught as your shouts of "come by" and "away, lad" merely cause the confused rodent to run around the field inside a clear plastic ball, and stuff his cheeks full of sunflower seeds respectively.

Your lucky object of the month is a small orange policeman.


CANCER

Eureka! This month you emerge from your garden shed clutching your latest - and surely your best - invention. Whereas other people are coming up with more and more varieties of alcoholic soft drinks, you have tapped into a hole in the market with your range of alcoholic vegetables.

Coming in several varieties, the most successful proves to be the AlcoPea, the most potent and exclusive of the lot. However, when a lucrative and unsavoury black market springs up around your product - with large quantities of AlcoPeas changing hands for huge amounts of money - the government force you to close down, putting an end to your greengrocer-cum-brewery shenanigans.

Your lucky shade of blue this month is lilac.


LEO

Determined once and for all to get your place in the record books, this month you spend six days in a row continously hopping on one leg whilst whistling Elvis Presley songs. After seeking confirmation from the officials that you have indeed set the record for this feat, you are yet again disappointed when they point out that your chosen field of expertise is in fact far too stupid to be included.

Better luck next month.

Your lucky member of the Waltons is Jim-Bob.


VIRGO

Yet again, nothing interesting will happen to you at all this month. You really should get out more.


LIBRA

Do blondes have more fun?? That's the question you ask yourself this month just before you immerse your entire body in a vat full of industrial-strength bleach.

No, they do not. That's your answer, 10 seconds later.

Your lucky number of the month is somewhere between 1 and 6,291.


SCORPIO

After watching summer blockbuster "Men In Black" this month, you decide to set up your own covert agency with your brother-in-law Steve. After searching through your wardrobes for several days, eventually the Men In Beige emerge blinking into the sunlight. Their mission is to travel the country righting wrongs and giving radical interior design and fashion tips.

Things go well until Steve takes it upon himself to spend all your reward money on sweets, his resultant astronomical sugar intake causing him to cartwheel down the outside lane of the motorway screaming "I am the god of hellfire and I bring you spinach!".

The aubergine is your lucky vegetable of the month.


SAGGITARIUS

You have a very strange dream this month in which you find yourself suspended above a pit filled with spicy salsa sauce whilst David Hasselhoff from Baywatch slowly lowers you downwards. Just as you fear you are going to be immersed in the savoury foodstuff, Oprah Winfrey appears in a F-29 jump jet, knocks David unconscious with a large rubber chicken and whisks you off to safety, where she treats you to her rendition of "Heartbreak Hotel" on the banjo.

When you wake up, the pillow will be gone.

Your lucky number this month is very likely to be 7.


CAPRICORN

Time for a new hobby. You have long wanted to be able to juggle, so this month you devote your time to learning this dextrous purusit. Mid-way through the month, you have not yet mastered the art of throwing a bean bag into the air then catching it.

Sensing your fingers are perhaps not nimble enough to master the juggler's art, you thus throw yourself into your new job as a brain surgeon at the local hospital.

Your lucky method of transport for the month is the Sherman tank.


AQUARIUS

Once again, in a long and rather contrived experiment, you try to prove an old adage correct this month when you borrow your neighbour's cat Splodges and observe the antics of several mice; both when Splodges is in the room, and when Splodges is without.

Despite the fact that you provide the rodents with a complete range of tiny sports equipment, they steadfastly ignore it when Splodges is absent, if anything appearing more excited and lively when he is in the room. Shaking your head wisely, you cross "When the cat's away the mice will play" off your hand-written and depressingly long list.

Beware of toothpaste this month.


PISCES

Past-it blond Cockney star of yesteryear Adam Faith continues to plague your life this month by ordering useless and unwanted items and getting them delivered to your front door. The pizzas and the taxis you can just about handle, but when Adam sends an entire herd of African elephants to your door you begin to despair for your sanity.

Somehow, you sense your troubles are only just beginning.

Your lucky number of the month is somewhere between 12 and 2,244.
