May 25 @ 05:00 – 08:00

Does the aries manage from time to time to break the wall they compulsively try to break with their head? (or just understing they can open the door which is just aside to pass, instead?) Do leos at least one time in their life think they where maybe once slightly partially wrong? Do aquarius ever do something with any understandable logic or that can in anyhow remotly suggest a connection with some meaningful explication? Does capricorns had feeling and can therefore be considered sentient beings?

Discover your true self through your astral chart! Absurd astrology consultation at Andrymi, between 5pm and 8pm on Monday 25 May. Your life will be never as before!
