For those who were concerned, Otis is back in the house. He never goes far, just to the front patch of grass (I hesitate to call it a "lawn") to eat weeds and hunt the occasional lizard.
Bemusedly inspired by Amy's tale of horoscopes and sign confusion (when the moon is in the seventh house, and Jupiter aligns with Mars), I looked up my natal Aztec horoscope. Here's what I got. My comments are in italics.
Daily Horoscope for 18 Sep 1972
The day is 6 Cipactli - Alligator
The sign of Cipactli is the head of an Alligator who was supposed to be the Mother Earth, and therefore, fertility. (ulp! well, at least that matches my "Greek" horoscope sign, Virgo)
The presiding deity is Tonacatecuhtli, Lord of Subsistence, a creator deity to whom we owe everything, because he is the provider of our food. (Well, they got that part right.)
This day can be considered as a favourable day and is a very good day on which to be married or even make plans for matrimony. (Cool!)
The week is 1 Cozcaquauhtli - Vulture
The presiding deity is Xolotl, a mysterious deity who represents the darker side of the planet Venus. Just as Quetzalcoatl represents the brighter side of this planet, so Xolotl represents the opposite of the attributes given to him. Xolotl is therefore represented as symbolising ignorance (hey!) and deep unconscious thoughts, whilst Quetzalcoatl represents the wind of intelligence blowing through the mind.
An uncertain week to define, being one of mystery, but all of the omens foretell a danger to mankind or everything that he regards as being sacred, possibly through his own ignorance.
Stupid Aztecs. The only thing they ever got right was hot chocolate.
