Gold cherry

Aries.

You’ve had a tough time lately

making ends meet,

but all your money worries will soon be over!

A socialist windfall is on the way

as the downtrodden masses rise up

when Saturn enters the house of Capricorn.

 

Taurus.

Problems at work have been troubling you recently.

You and authority don’t mix!

Hold on tight until the twenty-third, when you’ll

seize control of the means of production

and smash the chains of worldwide imperialism that enslave humanity

as Mars reaches the Libran descendant.

 

Gemini.

Your love-life has been somewhat

on the back burner of late, comrade.

But don’t worry. On the fifteenth,

your libido will be shaken awake

as the glorious proletarian revolution sweeps capitalism

and all that lacklustre sex

into the dustbin of history.

 

Cancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio,

Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius and Pisces.

You are reactionary bourgeois swine.

I never knew I was part of the bourgeoise, but at least I'm not a running dog.. small mercies.

I think Karl might spit those golden cherries right back in my face. Or at least disown them in a strongly worded statement sent from his Ipad. Excellent as always - feel free to swap the picture to one of your choosing if this doesn't suit.

great choice! I like the arbitrariness of the last three lines, though have never been so glad of my birthdate ;0)

And the handsome prince married the beautiful princess and they all lived happily ever after. Yeah... enjoyed the read!

You really don't know how apt Taurus is.

iPad?  Marx would never have owned something so symbolic of capitalist exploitation!

Haha!  I like your sense of satiric exaggeration.
