VIRGO [August 23–September 22] Whenever the tide goes out, the creek I live next to loses a lot of its water to the bay. From a distance, the mud looks like a wet, black desert, but if you get up close, you'll see it's covered with tiny furrows, pits, and bulges. This is evidence that many small creatures live there, although only the hungry ducks and egrets know exactly where to look to find them. Be like those birds, Virgo. As you survey your version of the mud flat, ignore anyone who tells you that it's barren. Go searching for the rich pickings.
