[seiryuuchan]

Back in December, re-reading some of Omega Red's older appearances, I started wondering about the name the Soul Skinner calls him here in this panel of X-Men 18:

Vasyliev Arkady. His human name has been given alternatively as Arkady Grigorievich or Arkady Rossovich, but Russian names have three parts, not just two: Given Name, Patronymic, and Family Name. Technically, Grigorievich/Rossovich would not be equivalent to his last name. EDIT: I wasn't able to resolve the mystery of why the Soul Skinner would call Arkady "Vasyliev" Arkady. The closest I could figure out was that it might actually be Arkady's surname (third name), since it can be either a patronymic or a surname. It might also have been meant as an insult, since calling someone only by their surname is how inferiors were traditionally referred to, or how a teacher might address a student, or ironically as in some modern usage.

Which then led me to wondering how his first name would have been chosen?

Russian first names are, or often were, chosen from Greek Orthodox tradition or pre-Christian Slavic names. Arkady is from the Greek "Arcadia" and there was a Russian saint in the Greek Orthodox Church, Arkady or Arkadios of Novotorsk from the 1600s whose saint's days are June 11th, July 11th, and August 14th.

Now I started to get curious about what kind of natal horoscope would Arkady Grigorievich/Rossovich have?

Buckle in with your drinks and snacks, because this is going to be a bit of a ride...!

Given that his first appearance was in 1992 and it's been stated several times he was in cryogenic stasis for 30 years; that Wolverine stated his team's operation to sabotage Omega Red's program was in the early 1960s; and that Arkady would have likely been in his early-to mid 20s at the oldest the time (likely entered military service at 18 if not earlier - this wasn't uncommon back before networked records, and his abilities would have likely been discovered pretty soon thereafter) gave me a rough likely timeframe of 1936-1943ish to consider for his birth year.

Western astrology doesn't give much importance to, or assign characteristics to, the year of birth, but Chinese/Eastern astrology does. Here's the breakout of the animal zodiac signs for each year in that range:

There's a lot of background I'm going to skip over here for the sake of brevity in what's already a long post, but from a thematic point as well as a likely age point, having a heavenly branch element of metal makes a certain amount of sense, not to mention the personality and characteristics usually ascribed to Dragon or Snake.

This was really a tough call, because with all the force of his personality, you might initially think Yang Metal Dragon is the logical choice for birth year. Both Metal Dragon and Metal Snake are ascribed similar traits of unyielding strength and resolve, really a lot similar between both of them for Arkady's observed traits. What really clinched it for me as his most likely birth year (again, following astrology's ascribed characteristics purely for fun) was the nature of Yin Metal Snakes being described as emotionally distant, suspicious, and absolutely undying in either loyalty or hatred for betrayal. THAT sounds like Omega Red to a T!

So 1941, likely in June, July, or August. Let's turn back to the Western zodiac for his sun sign - those mid-month dates give us the likely choices of Gemini, Cancer, or Leo:

Gemini

Flexibility, balance and adaptability describe the Gemini personality. Their responses can be difficult to predict and they may be prone to mood swings, but they can also be generous, affectionate and imaginative.

Cancer

Cancer people are traditionalists, loving a simple home life. They will usually be composed, but that hides a turmoil of moods going on under the surface. They are easily hurt and can be prone to depression, but they are loyal, sympathetic friends and carers.

Leo

Leo people are exuberant and powerful. Born leaders, they won’t hesitate to let you know what they think and that they are right. Which they usually are. They can be brave and intuitive, but may come across as pushy and overbearing. Their bossiness often hides a sensitive soul and an underlying insecurity.

Oh, our boy is HELLA a Leo, then. Hands down, no question!

So in combination with his official biography on Marvel.com giving his birthplace as Novorossiysk, with an assumed birthdate of August 14th, 1941, and after a little adjusting time of birth for rising sign, his natal chart looks like this, courtesy of Astrolabe:

Rising Sign is in 15 Degrees Scorpio

You tend to be quiet, reserved, secretive and, at times, quite difficult to understand. Others notice your deep emotions and feelings and wonder how to draw you out. Stubborn and tough, you fight for any position you believe in. You are very resourceful and formidable when you become angered or upset about something. You enjoy living life at the cutting edge -- for you life must be experienced intensely and totally. Quite courageous, you are willing to take calculated risks. Easily hurt by others, you often strike back with bitter sarcasm. Sensitive and curious, you are concerned with the deeper mysteries of human psychology. Once you have become interested in any subject, you pursue it with total fanaticism.

Sun is in 21 Degrees Leo

More than a bit of a showoff, you love to be the center of attention! But others do not usually mind because they tend to enjoy your genuine warmth and affection. Very spirited and willful, proud and self-important at times, you demand your own way. You are quite honest, however, and the respect of others is very important to you. You never compromise yourself and you pursue your goals with persistence and dedication. Your regal presence and demeanor draws you to positions of leadership and authority. But beware of being overly hardheaded, domineering, ostentatious or patronizing or you will lose the goodwill and admiration that you enjoy. Very theatrical, you live life on a grand scale wherever and whenever possible. Your strength and energy vitalizes those who come in contact with you.

Moon is in 14 Degrees Taurus

Warmth, comfort, security and familiar surroundings are necessary for you to feel at ease. Very loving and affectionate, you prefer a steady, patterned way of life. Patient, calm and steadfast, you are not easily upset. Others look to you for support. You tend to be a slow starter and a slow mover -- others may try to rush you, but they will never succeed. Emotionally, you are quite stubborn -- your attitudes about people and things were firmly set in your youth and will change very little as an adult. You are also very cautious and conservative about spending money. It is not that you are selfish, you just need to feel secure. Beware of a tendency to become overly complacent and too self-satisfied.

Mercury is in 16 Degrees Leo

You are usually quite convinced that your own ideas are correct and you enjoy persuading others that they are. At times, you are very stubborn and proud of your beliefs and principles, and you get very defensive when they are challenged. You appreciate truth and honesty -- you practice it yourself and expect it in others. You have good talent for organizing, directing and planning. You delight in being asked for your advice and counsel.

Venus is in 22 Degrees Virgo

You express your love and affection through selfless service to people or causes. You have a tendency to underestimate yourself and doubt your self-worth. This is very demeaning and should be avoided -- learn to love yourself as well as you do others. Your standards of perfection are very high -- you are attracted to relationships based on duty and responsibility. You are supercritical of yourself and others and, at times, prefer to be alone rather than deal with any imperfections in yourself or in those with whom you might relate.

Mars is in 20 Degrees Aries

You are very independent and self-assertive, and you have lots of physical energy. You are not satisfied unless you can be the first to do something. As such, you are more comfortable in leadership positions than you are as an underling. When you are challenged by anyone for anything, you delight in the competitive process and will fight long and hard for your beliefs. You are bold and courageous and often act without thinking. At times, in your zeal to get ahead, you are tactless and offensive -- learn that cooperation with others can often bring you nearer to your goals quicker because of the support you will get.

Jupiter is in 16 Degrees Gemini

You have a logical, detached, objective view of most things. Your interests are wide-ranging and you are an avid student, with expertise in many different areas. You love to work things out in your mind -- everything you do is reduced to an exercise in logic and reason. You have the ability to grasp abstractions and to deal successfully with the larger issues of life. Your overemphasis on developing your powerful intellect can cause your emotional and intuitive abilities to atrophy unless you consciously choose to exercise them.

Saturn is in 27 Degrees Taurus

Complete freedom of choice makes you ill at ease. You must have a firm, ordered, secure foundation in your life in order to feel comfortable. You do not adapt easily and tend to fear the new and untried. You constantly fear that you do not have enough (love, property, material things, etc.) and this makes you tend toward being selfish, withdrawn and stingy. If you try to surround yourself with supportive people in your environment, you will become more emotionally self-supporting.

Uranus is in 00 Degrees Gemini

You, and your peer group as well, are attracted to new, unusual and revolutionary thoughts, ideas and lifestyles. You prefer abstract, idealistic solutions to practical, immediately useful answers. You delight in communications, the mass media, electronics, computers and all sorts of gadgetry.

Neptune is in 26 Degrees Virgo

You, and your entire generation, idealize work, duty and responsibility. You tend to be very fearful of anything that would force you out of the protective shell of your everyday routines. You place a high premium on personal pride in productivity and craftsmanship. But in your search for perfection in minor details, you sometimes lose track of the overall purpose of life.

Pluto is in 04 Degrees Leo

For your entire generation, this is a time when the relationship of the individual to society as a whole is being thoroughly re-examined. Major attempts will be made to find a balance between the need to be self-sufficient and the need to honor debts of social commitment.

Happy birthday (maybe?) Omega Red/Arkady Rossovich!

N. Node is in 23 Degrees Virgo

You're usually quite at ease in leaving leadership roles in the hands of others. You would rather tend to the thousand and one details that need to be accomplished to keep any group going. Although you're very fussy and high-minded when it comes to choosing your associates, once your loyalty is given you can be trusted with many of the practical aspects of any project that is being undertaken. Usually quite unselfish, you will toil long hours in the service of any worthy cause that demands your attention. But be careful that your perfectionist tendencies don't get in the way of making real progress. (In other words, don't waste your time dusting clean shelves!)

If you made it all the way to the end of this post, thanks for reading! This was a real labor of love for one of my favorite characters in any fandom, I hope you enjoyed the journey.

Mercury Retrograde November 2024-25: Impact on Your Zodiac & Best Remedies

Mercury, the planet of communication, intellect and travel, will be retrograde as it moves into Sagittarius (Dhanu) on November 26, 2024. This retrograde phase does not only concern those interested in astrology or astrologers alone. Everybody can feel its effects since it is a time for reflection designed to make everyone rethink their actions, decisions and plans. Under such circumstances, Mercury will travel back into Scorpio around November 30, 2024, increasing its impact in general. The retrograde of Mercury will end on December 16, 2024, when Mercury moves directly and continues moving in Sagittarius.

If, however, we can understand the subtleties of this retrograde phase and its influences on the people born under each zodiac sign, this would give us much more clarity and purpose during this time.

What Happens During Mercury Retrograde?

The retrograde movement of Mercury focuses everything on making plans and strategic moves at a slower pace. The main themes concern people during Mercury retrograde:

Going in the past:

Past relationships, unhealed arguments, or unfinished business could return. But this is also a period to slow down and direct the attention inward, bringing closure and creating new plans. There can be confusion and misunderstanding during Mercury retrograde. We can misinterpret words, things get lost in translation and travel, or studies can get delayed.

Miscommunications:

Mercury retrograde is a time when there is a chance of miscommunication. Your texts may go to a location you were not meant to send, false documentation may be present, and confusion may arise in counting or understanding communications. Those facing Link-court/legal issues should be extra careful, as false documentation or witnesses may trouble you during this transit.

Transition to Scorpio (About November 30, 2024):

When Mercury gets retrograde into Scorpio, novel energies prevail, becoming more profound, intense, emotional, and investigative. These days are good for self-exploration, finding hidden secrets, making contacts, and creating new opportunities. Scorpio's energy endorses the vision of change and healing emotions.

Direct Motion (December 16, 2024):

Only with a direct Mercury can we find the understandable beginning and structure to build upon. Retrograde movement-related unfinished business will now be completed relatively quickly. It brings in the right mindset and lets and enhances the potential for the early phases.

Effects of Mercury retrograde on all zodiac signs

Aries (Mesh)

Your self-expression may be problematic due to poor judgement or careless attitude towards other people's feelings. There may be travel obstacles or issues in legal or academic concerns. These setbacks allow for a reconsideration of overreaching objectives and squandering opportunities.

Advice: If implementation is interfered with, patience is encouraged, as is adhering carefully to the action plan.

Taurus (Vrishabha)

This season draws attention to partnership goods, investments, and finances. Be on the lookout for any committed ventures since they involve considerable risk. Sometimes, family problems can also be found within loving relationships. Mercury is the Karaka of the share market, and with its placement in your 8th house, you need to be extra cautious with share market dealings; losses may follow.

Advice: Look carefully at how one should manage one's finances to maintain separation in all domestic affairs.

Gemini (Mithun)

Since your lord is in a backward motion, these events and circumstances can easily confuse you. Interaction with partners (husband, wife, professional, or business partners) is advisable with caution. A thing or two about age and relationships deserve some appreciation.

Advice: Take the initiative to tackle previously unaddressed issues and strive for clarity in discussions.

Cancer (Karka)

Your work or occupation, health, fitness and activity levels, and everyday routines are in sight. Messages likely to be related to work may need to be clarified, as will any health elements previously considered unlikely.

Advice: There is a reason for concern about one's physical well-being. One has to clarify vows made in the course of business.

Leo (Singh)

Reconnecting with the creative side, loving someone romantically, or even having children may require some attention. Older partners, companions, or even numerous creative endeavours will only emerge from the direct development of previous ones.

Advice: As many women surround you, this is an excellent time to contact them and reignite any unresolved issues.

Virgo (Kanya)

Family affairs, real estate questions, and your emotional background will be prioritized. You may be forced to postpone some repairs or renovations around your residence.

Advice: It is best to be easy-going and not start quarrels with your family relations.

Libra (Tula)

Trouble may arise when making appointments, signing contracts and travelling. Focusing on previous relationships or contacting brothers and sisters and close friends would be worthwhile.

Advice: Do not leave anything untouched when talking to others and accept changes.

Scorpio (Vrishchik)

The presence of Mercury during retrogression in your sign urges one to engage in inward severe reflection accompanied by change. Treat your finances with great care, particularly about debts and investments.

Advice: Learn to forgive and forget and work on your behaviours.

Sagittarius (Dhanu)

You may find this deterioration in your sign slightly unnerving because your personal plan expectations are unmet. You could remember past dreams but be confronted by the difficulties of articulating your ideas. It's time to learn new skills, and many may go for studies abroad or to a foreign settlement during this time.

Advice: Focus on self-exploration and resist the urge to initiate new business ventures.

Capricorn (Makar)

Elements of unrecognized patterns of behaviour and unresolved issues of the mind may surface. You may experience a disconnection with your spiritual objectives as well.

Advice: Do not resist being alone and analyze your psychological demands.

Aquarius (Kumbh)

It is common for the nature of social interactions and friendships to change. There could also be a renewal of old friends or an alteration in group work.

Advice: Foster meaningful relationships and clear the air of all pending issues.

Pisces (Meen)

The public image and worth may need some clarification.

Advice: Contact other individuals carefully concerning work matters, and do not take unnecessary chances.

Conclusion

Mercury retrograde in Sagittarius and Scorpio in 2024 is a transforming process. It may seem difficult at the outer level, but it is an opportunity to return to life's contours and receive new energy. A strong emphasis on the key elements of patience, intelligence, and tactical schemes will allow you to deal with this retrograde and come out of it all the better.

Ketu & Rahu and Time

In Vedic Astrology, the Vimshottari dasha system has been developed, which allows you to determine when the energies of the planets will manifest in a person’s life. Ketu and Rahu also have their own place in this system. The main period of Rahu lasts 18 years. It is believed that he can bring a very big take-off in his period if he is well-located, but if a person is strongly attached to acquisitions and is very proud of it, then at the end of the period Rahu can take everything. Rahu is the planet of illusion and intoxication, and in case of defeat in their periods and sub-periods, a person may meet with deceit or with a strong desire for forbidden foods and deeds.

Each planet governs a specific season of the year. Rahu along with Saturn governs the peak of Winter and falls between December and February in the Northern Hemisphere.

Vedic Astrology divides the year into 2 parts Uttarayana (Northern path of the Sun from Capricorn to Gemini - from December 22 to June 21) and Dakshinayan (South path of the Sun from Cancer to Sagittarius - from June 21 to December 22). It is believed that demigods and divine qualities are strongest during the Solar Northern Path, while demons and demonic qualities are strongest during the Solar Southern Path. Thus Rahu, like other malefics, is more powerful during Dakshinayana.

During the month, Rahu is most powerful on the days when the Moon passes the nakshatras ruled by Rahu - Ardra (Gemini), Swati (Libra), and Shatabhisha (Aquarius).

The month between two full moons is divided into 30 tithi or lunar days. These 30 days are divided among themselves into 15 days of the growing and 15 days of the waning moon. It is believed that Rahu correlates with the 8 lunar days of the waxing and waning moon, but some astrologers write that the 5 lunar day also belongs to him, because. it is on these tithes that snake worship takes place.

The days of the week associated with Rahu are Wednesday and Saturday, as Rahu is friendly to Mercury and Saturn.

During the day, the energies of Rahu are strongest during sunset and for 2 hours after it. Also, the energies of Rahu are strong at night. People born at this time often feel the influence of Rahu most strongly in their lives.

In people who are strongly influenced by Rahu, intuition and creativity are greatly aggravated at night.

Also during each day, there is a time of Rahu or Rahu-kalam in which the influence of the node is very strong. This time is considered unfavorable for important conversations or the beginning of the business since Rahu misleads the mind of a person and makes him unable to adequately perceive the surrounding reality.

Age from 42 to 47 years is attributed to Rahu. At this time, Rahu manifests in its entirety. At this time, many things change in people's lives, what exactly will change depends on the position of Rahu in the person's horoscope. Starting from the age of 69, Saturn, Rahu, and Ketu increase their influence on a person.

Also, important years are the time when Rahu and Ketu transit through their position in the natal chart at the time of birth. This happens once every 18 years. And therefore, the periods from 18-19, 37-38, 56-57, and 75-76 years are very important for a person. At this time, internal transformations take place, and consciousness changes.

2010 Lover Diaries Transcripts

Feb 13, 2010- Adelaide, Australia

My horoscope said today someone new is going to come into the picture and change my life in an exciting way. PLUS, it’s the 13th. So it has to be true. Right? Right? Well, I don’t see it happening in the form of meeting someone. Maybe I’ll get an email or a call from someone fantastic and life changing. Or maybe I won’t. That’s more likely. I’ve been obsessing over the new album. I always do that until it’s just right. I don’t know if I have the formula just right for this one yet. I know there are great songs. I just need to figure out the strands that bond them together into a great album. And I will obsess until it’s there. This album, any album, is the next 2 years of my life. It has to be more than amazing. It has to be great enough to keep my attention for 2 years.

Apr 13, 2010- Nashville, TN

So I’ve been obsessing over the new record to the point where it’s all I can focus on. I’m majorly stressed and borderline losing it, with all these lists and chronic dissatisfaction. Perfectionist-ness. I keep growing tired of songs because I know I’ve raised the bar and I can beat half the songs. Scott and I had lunch the other day. We were talking about the record and I had this epiphany. I didn’t talk in interviews about how I felt about much of what has happened in the last 2 years. I’ve been silent about so much that I’m saying on this album. It’s time to Speak Now. Scott freaked out. He loved it. We have a title, ladies and gentlemen!

Long Live Lyrics

Jun 16, 2010- Nashville, TN

So I’ve been a little studio rat since the tour ended (and it ended oh so beautifully in front of 55,000 screaming fans at Gillette Stadium. It was just … wow). Ever since, I wake up to my cell phone alarm around 9:30 each morning. Throw on a sundress, skip make up, tie my hair in a messy side braid, and head out the door with no shoes on. Because the only walking outside I’ll be doing is from my house to my car, then from my car, three steps to Nathan’s basement studio. The CMT Awards were last week. I shocked the world and straightened my hair that night. Gasp!! I worked on a song for a few days, then basically finished it in the car on the way to Nathan’s this morning. It. Is. So. Good. And I can safely say I am DONE writing this record!! This song is up-tempo, and hooky and sort of torn-sounding … like this horrible stressed confusion that comes on when you knew the person you’re pining away for is in the room. And for some reason, there are these invisible walls keeping things from being ok. So you’re not fine. And they’re not fine. And I’m so happy I wrote that song!! :) Taylor

Oct 9, 2010- Nashville, TN

Today was a long day but it was great to get all of that stuff done-- The Grand Ole Opry performance was tonight. The Opry was just reopened and the backstage is AMAZING now. Since the flood, they redid everything. Every room is custom and chic and just lovely. Warm and well thought out. I walked to Starbucks this morning with my headphones on, listening to music. Music has helped me a lot lately. It helps me quiet my very loud fears. I love mornings like that, smiling and talking to strangers, waving to fans and they burst into tears and screams... All before noon. I drove to the Opry around 3 because I had to do some video interviews. I wore a sparkly cream dress for my performances, my first one was at 8, the second at 10. I preformed You Belong, Love Story, and a solo acoustic version of Mine. That got excellent response. It almost turns into a different song when its acoustic. I got applause several times throughout the song. I was more nervous on the first show. I get stagefright every time I walk onto a stage now. I wish it wasn't so, but I can't blame my mind for freaking about performances. Criticism of my performances has been the biggest source of pain in my life. I Sometimes feel like my college degree is in acting like I'm ok when I'm not. Taylor <3

Current and upcoming astrological events August/September 2023

What to expect…

At the moment we are under Full Moon phase (Full Super Blue Moon in Pisces), where emotions may be high, some tension could be around and we are easily influenced from others feelings and emotions. Projects may see results or endings. Good time for spiritual practices and healing.

Mercury (in Virgo) is in its retrograde motion since August 23, 2023 therefore, problems with traveling and transportation may occur. Communication issues and misunderstandings are likely. Be careful with communication devices and vehicles (from damage, breaks) as well as data, important documents, personal information, passwords which could be lost or stolen. Avoid signing contracts, if possible, if not double check the content for possible mistakes or misleading information. It is a good time for study and research. Mercury will turn direct on September 16, 2023.

Another retrograde planet is Uranus (in Taurus) since August 28, 2023 which suggest that it is a period of personal reflection and rather inner growth, and awakening. This could lead to important realisation and alternative prospective in our lives where we can make major life changes where necessary. Uranus will turn direct on January 27, 2024.

On September 4th, Venus is moving direct, finally…It will be a good time in terms of finances, love and relationships. It is also an appropriate time for beauty procedures and even late summer holidays. On this very same day, however, Jupiter goes Retrograde (in Taurus) which may cause delays when it comes to big- future orientated projects and ventures.

Long distance travels may also slow down or disrupted in one way or another. We may reflect, revise or reassess our believe system and philosophy of life, on a personal level and as a collective. However, this could be a great period of higher learning – further education, university study/degree; religion and philosophy or natural science. It is also a great time for spiritual practises, especially in nature or doing some charity work in food banks/supporting people with basic material needs. Jupiter retrogrades in Taurus could also talk about slowing down the economies, property market and land/agriculture businesses in a global level. On December 30, 2023, Jupiter will turn direct in the same sign.

And HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ALL VIRGOS!!! Wishing you great health and successful birthday year.

Keep in mind that these are GENERAL ASTROLOGICAL TENDENCIES and how exactly this energy will influence you it’s depending on your personal horoscope, but most definitely you will feel these astrological events in one way or another, especially, in some areas in your life. And remember, that singe astrological event does not represent the whole picture in a personal or on a collective level.

Best wishes

Jackass weekly horoscopes for January 8-14, 2024

I haven't done a real Jackass-themed horoscope before, so I contacted Weekly Horoscope: January 8–14, 2024 | Horoscope.com for each of the members, new and old.

Wee Man: May 16, 1973 ♉🌿

The littlest member of the cast will seek new adventures during the new moon in Capricorn, though he might have some trouble focusing on just one path as the week progresses. Therefore, a little reading may help remedy his creativity slump during the weekend expansion zone.

Ryan Dunn: June 11, 1977-June 20, 2011 ♓🍃

During his precious time on Earth, our Random Hero was witty and charming despite his reckless demeanor with the way he aided his closest friend Bam Margera in their pranks and stunts. Until his last days, Dunn loved to socialize with his castmates on and off set.

Steve-O: June 13, 1974 ♓🍃

As the most recognizable cast member besides Knoxville, Steve-O should use this week to empower himself and his close circle of friends regardless of how strong his relationships with his loved ones. Over the next two weeks, his love life may reach its peak upon Mercury rising so that he'll find out what his lover really means in the fine print.

Chris Pontius: July 16, 1974 ♋🌊

The new moon in Capricorn is the perfect time for Party Boy to venture outside his comfort zone in all aspects of life: personal, professional, and creative. One slight constructive criticism, however, is that he could improve his trust skills depending on confidence level.

Preston Lacy: August 14, 1969 ♌🔥

No matter how productive he's been since the new year began last week, Preston's productivity faces a major boost with the new moon in Capricorn. Watch out for signs of jealousy, though, because the weekend will bring the oldest Jackass star to realize he doesn't need to compare other people's values to his own.

Zach Holmes: September 11, 1991 ♍🌿

By the time the new moon in Capricorn comes around, this Jackass newcomer will have wasted no time enjoying a plethora of activities along with making some new friends. Much like Leos, however, Zach could fall victim to jealousy as 2024 progresses, so creating new projects could compensate for that.

Bam Margera: September 28, 1979; Jasper Dolphin: September 28, 1990; and Poopies: October 21, 1986 ♎🍃

Not one, not two, but three Libras represent the Jackass crew, two of them-Bam and Jasper-sharing a birthday 11 years apart, making this weekend the right time for Bam to invest in his sobriety by skateboarding in his free time, like he has been the past few months. As for both Jasper and Poopies, both newbies could balance self-care and help with others.

Danger Ehren: November 29, 1976; and Eric Manaka: December 9, 1999 ♐🔥

Two weeks after Christmas, the Jackass Forever MVP and the British unknown seek improvement in their financial journeys. If they shift their attention onto themselves instead of their rivals, both Sagittarians will momentarily master their investment skills by the next week.

Dave England: December 30, 1969 ♑🌿

New beginnings await Dave England as 2024's first full moon approaches. Therefore, reinventing himself by overcoming harsh realities of various aspects of his life can lead to a gradual boost of self-esteem over the next two weeks.

Rachel Wolfson: January 23, 1987 ♒🍃

As someone who shares a star sign as me, Rachel is just as daring as me, if not more so. However, even she could use a little downtime on her ever-active stand-up comedy schedule by reducing any negative aspects by the time Mercury enters her subconscious zone on Saturday.

Johnny Knoxville: March 11, 1971 ♓🌊

I saved the best member for last because Knoxville is worthy of discovering what he really wants in life. The real goal for this weekend's Mercury rising, however, is for him to help reach and modify his goals and aspirations for the first quarter of 2024.
