On horoscopes and spirituality.

I sign in to my Google homepage and this is what my October 4, 2006, horoscope says:

It may be tempting to plan your own metaphysical escape from the circumstances that hold you back, but avoiding serious issues won’t make them go away. The best way to lighten your load and to ease any discouragement is to focus on the higher truth and continue moving toward it. Remember, there is a spiritual side to what is happening and you may discover that you are on the right path if you can find a way to express your compassion.

Goodness. It has been a long time since I last signed into my Google homepage and this hits me right smack in the middle.

How is it possible that the Lord is speaking to me through that–a horoscope? Oops, my bad. Since when was anything impossible to God? Thank you, Lord, for working in the simplest of ways, for revealing yourself in the simplest of things.

Here’s another from My Yahoo!

If you learn to let go a little, you’ll have a little peace. If you learn to let go a lot, you’ll have a lot of peace. What does it mean to love someone? What does it mean to love yourself? Ask the big questions right now.

Wow.[/EDIT]

P.S. The higher truth should be the only Truth.
