Letter From a Ghost?
This just in from a reader (and yes, I really received this letter!)
Hi Cosmic Jennifer,
I really like your blog. Um . . . I have a question.
Okay.
I was wondering if maybe you could help me clear up a tiny concern that I have? Just a teensy, weensy little worrylet? See, I'm kind of wondering whether I might actually be a ghost.
Here's what makes me nervous:
1) I am frequently invisible, especially to the man I love.
2) I am frequently inaudible, ditto.
3) I seem to spend lots of time drifting vaguely around, feeling lots of grief, remorse, anguish, woe, & a sense of unfinished business.
4) I'm extremely dramatic, but also pathetically ineffectual. I can startle, amaze, & impress, but only for the first five minutes or so of a relationship. After that, see (1) and (2).
5) I'm pretty sure I can walk through walls. Well, not actually *through* them - not yet. But I walked *into* one really vigorously yesterday, and I'm convinced it's only a matter of time before I make it through. Gotta watch out for my nose next time, though.
So, whaddya think? Am I actually here, or not? How can I tell? Is there a test? What should I do if someone tries to exorcise me? And what about seances?!
Respectfully Yours,
Eglantine Q. Fantod
Dear Eglantine,
Hmm. . . your name seems oddly familiar. Edward Gorey didn't depict you in one of his lovely books, did he? Hmm.
It sounds like ya gots yerself a dilemma. No matter how much you express yourself, others around you don't seem to notice that you're alive. Given that that is the case, it only stands to reason that you might begin to wonder if you are a ghost.
I experience this sensation myself, from time to time, especially when I submit proposals to editors and hear nothing in response. I would think that, if I wasn't a ghost, I'd at least hear something along the lines of:
a) You suck.
b) You don't suck, but go away, anyway.
c) You don't suck, and we'd like to hire you as a fearless scribe/office prankster/toilet cleaner. (Or all of the above.)
I will say one thing, Eglantine. You don't have to worry about people trying to exorcise you, because not many people know how to do it. I'm hoping to teach people more about ghosts, angels, and entities of the creepy crawlie type on my future website and in my books.
Until then, watch out for people who burn frankincense or sage in your direction, pray a lot on your behalf, and send their spiritual guides and angels chasing after you. If any of these things occur, then, my dear girl, you will probably be making your exit from this plane pretty soon.
That's a good thing for a real spook, though. Real ghosts are confused spirits who universally don't realize that they have passed away, and their intense emotional energy magnetizes them temporarily to this physical plane, where they really don't belong anymore.
I'll be writing more about such matters in future posts. Meanwhile, feel free to share your own ghost stories with me, readers. I'll post them here with your permission.
Happy Halloween/Samhain!

The Emu Has Landed!
Wiley Emu Finally Caught
UPPER TOWNSHIP, NJ-October 22, 2003 — An emu that wandered the Pinelands of western Atlantic County for months has now found a home at a farm in Woodbine. David Milligan originally wanted to make money by raising the flightless, ostrich-like Australian birds, starting an emu ranch in 1996. But when the health craze for emu meat turned out to be a bust, Milligan found himself eating the birds himself, even though he really doesn't like the meat, which he said tastes like a cross between beef and liver. "That's all I eat," Milligan told The Press of Atlantic City. "No beef, no chicken."
Milligan's story isn't unusual among South Jersey farmers, some of whom have resorted to releasing the birds, which eat expensive feed and bring little in return. John Hill, who runs Tri-County Animal Rescue, estimates that there are at least a dozen feral emus on the loose in the green Pinelands of southern New Jersey. The young are unable to survive cold winters, but the adults do perfectly well. "They wind up in somebody's back yard," Hill said. "It's like something that escaped from Jurassic Park."
The new bird made news last week when it foiled an attempted capture by Hamilton Township police. Animal control workers from Tri-County Animal Rescue finally cornered the bird Friday morning in a yard in Upper Township, and a veterinarian sedated it with a tranquilizer dart.
-------(End Story)
My two questions in response to this story:
1)So how many poor young emus are out on the loose this winter, unable to fend for themselves?
2) Where did they take the hapless emu that they did catch, mentioned here in the article?
Let's hope he didn't end up on Farmer Milligan's dinner plate. Shudder.

Astrology Update for Late October/November
On Thursday, the 23rd, the Sun moves into the sign of Scorpio, and the following day, Mercury joins forces with it in this sign. And on Saturday, Saturn moves into retrograde, where it will hang until early March.
What do all of these cosmic shenanigans mean for you?
Well, if you're a Scorpio, you'll be sitting pretty. You'll have more stamina than the Energizer bunny and more cock-eyed (or half-cocked?) optimism than Arnold starting his new term as Governor of California. The good stuff also applies to your fellow Water signs, Cancer and Pisces, who will experience a similar dose of perkiness. (Just don't register for the next Miss America pageant. It should be illegal to be THAT perky.)
Taurus, I'm afraid I have bad news for you. As the planets line up opposite your sign over the next few weeks, you could be questioning that latest Botox injection or wondering if it was wise to elope with a snake-handler named Enriqué. You'll miss having access to a full range of facial expressions or worry that Enriqué might be too wild to bring home to your mother. Impulsive decisions that you made over the past year could come back to haunt you. As Saturn moves into retrograde, you'll have ample time to rethink those life strategies and come up with a better recipe for success. (In short: lose the mullet.) Don't panic, though. Success planet Jupiter will still look favorably on you (and Virgos and Capricorns) for another nine months, counter-acting any major doom.
We'll all feel a bit more introspective, thanks to solemn Saturn going retrograde. Why, exactly, did we buy that new Mini-Cooper we couldn't afford/invest in a house the size of Milwaukee/purchase so many antique doorknobs on Ebay? Saturn is a planet that rules heavy life issues like finances and responsibility, so if you've been avoiding your homework, your lazy butt could receive a painful but necessary reality check. Basically, it's time to DEAL. If you've made a mess of something, pick up a sponge and mop things up.
Hopefully, the sponge store won't run out of supplies.

PS. No report yet on that emu. Where did the birdie go?

Lions and Tigers and Emus, Oh My!
There's an emu on the loose in our area, and I'm wondering if I should be worried.
http://www.philly.com/mld/inquirer/7016630.htm
I haven't had any dreams lately featuring tall, flightless ostrich-like birds, so there was no psychic warning about this one. Supposedly, the creature is a good eight feet tall.
How's the wildlife behaving where you are? :)

Lions, and Tigers, and Bears, Oh My!
About two weeks ago, I was waking up from a dream when, with my inner eye, I saw a beautiful image of a white tiger. The animal had clear blue eyes and gorgeous white fur. I just saw the animal's head and shoulders. It was as if it was sitting right in front of me. As fast as this flash of a vision appeared, it was gone, and I woke up.
Usually, those images that come to me during that half-awake/half-asleep period turn out to be psychic or precognitive in some way. They don't happen that often, so, when they do, I try to take note of them. Sometimes, these images end up revealing something about my own life. Other times, they tend to coincide with events that turn up later in the news.
That particular morning, I was just thinking that the vision had something to do with one of our seven cats, a friendly, striped fellow whose name is Tiger. I thought that my brain was telling me to pay attention to stuff with that particular cat.
Sometimes my dreams give me warnings about the pusscats, like last winter, when I dreamed of our white cat, Earl, having a wound in his cheek. The dream was so clear that I looked up directions on how to get to the nearest emergency animal clinic, just in case. Sure enough, a few days later, Earl showed up with a gaping bite wound on his cheek, in the exact same spot I had seen in the dream. He probably ran into a possum or racoon at the food bowl in the barn. We took him to the 24 hour clinic I had already looked up. Earl healed up nicely, thank goodness. He's a tough, burly cat, a manly 16 pounder.
Well, after two weeks of me wondering what's going to happen to our Tiger, he still hasn't had any remarkable adventures. Just the usual helpings of rubs, snuggles, and kitty treats. Well, maybe he's been sniffing the other cats' butts a little more than usual, but basically, things are pretty normal in Tigerland. (Tiger is the official butt sniffer of the house. He has taken on this role all by himself, on his own initiative. I'm not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing. You'd have to ask the other cats.)
But things haven't been dull in Tigerland in a national sense, at all! Shortly after this dream vision, poor Roy Horn of Seigfried and Roy fame was bitten by Mantacore, the white tiger that was working with him in his Vegas show. I never saw their show, but I did get to see one of their white tigers backstage once. I'll never forget it. There was a habitat enclosed with glass for the white tigers at the casino, where tigers who weren't going to be performing that day would often rest and sleep. You could barely see this huge white creature with stunning markings up on his little ledge above the rocks where he was taking a nap. I was instantly in love. (Quite honestly, I don't think I've ever gotten over it, and that was some six years ago. I could probably use some therapy.)
I can't imagine seeing one of these in action, because they are so big. It must take a very brave person, and one who is highly attuned to cats, to be able to work with them in a show. By all reports, Roy is very gifted with animals, and he has never had troubles with one of his kitties before. I hope that Roy gets better soon. For all of the pot shots that people take at these two entertainers, they have brought white tigers to the public's attention, helping the public to become more aware of how precious these endangered animals are.
The same week, another tiger was in the news. This one was named Ming, and he was the tiger who was found living in a seven room apartment with a man in Harlem. The tiger was discovered, tranquilized, and dragged off to an animal park. (Poor kitty. He had been raised by this man, his only friend. He must be awfully sad about losing his buddy.) The man was also keeping a large alligator that they took away. I guess you need permits for wild animals like these, and the guy didn't have any. Oops!
So what were the odds of a white tiger being in the news within a few days of my having a dream about a white tiger? To my knowledge, it's not like I had been looking at pictures of white tigers or seeing them on TV or anything. I'd remember if I had, because I ADORE wild kitties and tend to salivate and pant over their images, uttering weird sounds like "OOWTHAKITTEEKITTEE!" So I would definitely know if I had seen one somewhere recently.
Anyway, tigers were on my psychic radar, and sure enough, tigers were soon featured in the media in a big way. It would seem that I not only have the E! Channel in my head, which alerts me to celebrity news, but I have CNN and Animal Planet, too. It's starting to get a little busy in there.
What are you dreaming about these days? Share your visions here.

Another Letter From a Reader
Dear Jennifer,
I don't want to waste your time, but I was excited to read about your dreams of celebrities. I stumbled upon your site for the first time today and I was startled to read what you had dreamed and written about Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez.
I started dabbling in psychic affairs a few years ago. One of my spur of the moment things to do was to make predictions about a celebrity ... just to see if it would work. On 7/15/01 I did this reading for Ben Affleck.
I wrote:
Something new happens in 2003. Looks to be a new love interest. Strong "L" name. She does have dark hair. This is time to get serious.
This person likes to have fun. She is a Cancer or is of a Cancerian temperament. She's good for you. Marriage is highly probable. Wait 2 years.
There will be multiple children - 2. Both girls. One will have reddish hair -- with a C name - Casey? Children happen in 7 years or months.
Dad retires early in August.
The last line says - Good Luck with Paramount's "Fierce".
***
This may sound fake or stupid ... but I thought that it was intriguing that Ben Affleck did get together with someone in 2003. Her last name is Lopez, she has dark hair and is a Cancer.
The last line was an extra confirmation for me. I tried to research it, and I found that Ben Affleck had only worked with Paramount once. It was in the project The Sum of All Fears. In its development stage the film was just called "Fears" ... which sounds like "Fierce." This became his very next movie to be released to the media, and it was being filmed after I wrote this stuff.
Again, I hope I didn't waste your time, but I do respect your celebrity precognitive dreams. It's an amazing (and entertaining) gift!
Good luck with your Hollywood prospects!
Thank you for your time.
John (Juanlw564@aol.com)
Dear John,
Thanks for sharing your celebrity predictions with me. You picked up on a lot of points in your reading on Ben and Jen - many "hits" on this one!
One thing that was off, though, is that Jen is a Leo, not a Cancer. Ben's a Leo, and the two of them together make one of those highly typical, predictable (for an astrologer like me!) couples. A disproportionate amount of celebrities are born under the sign of Leo, probably because this is a big attention-getting sign that is comfortable with the spotlight. Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky are another notorious Leo "couple" (Did they get their share of attention, or what! Talk about publicity hogs.)
Jennifer's birthday falls on July 23, 1970, while Ben's is August 15, 1972. I checked Jennifer's chart, and she doesn't really have Cancer showing up anywhere significant in her chart. (It's not her rising sign or moon sign, for instance.) Ben, on the other hand, has his Venus in Cancer, which makes him very protective of his sweethearts, as well as very generous. (Does this explain the huge rock he put on her finger?)
After looking at his chart, it would appear to make perfect sense that, out of his desire to "protect" his honey and to make his wedding day something special and intimate, that he would shy away from a huge, over-the-top, wedding. As the big day approached, the whole prospect of his wedding turning into a cartoon probably grew more and more ugly.
I'm glad, for their sake, that they opted out of the big day. Hopefully, a smaller, more intimate affair will take place soon, and they can make the day theirs (instead of having the National Enquirer spoil it for them.)
Their birth charts do look pretty compatible, and I think you're right - they're both going to want to become parents. I think they'd be a good mum and pop, protecting their kids from the limelight. (Much like fellow Leo Madonna does with her two kids.)
Thanks again for writing, and keep on doing readings. It sounds like you are developing some strong psychic talents. I always tell people that the best way to enhance your intuition is to keep regular journals of your impressions, hunches, and dreams. Over time, your radar will pick up on things that can be verified, only you have to keep track of what you predicted! It's so easy to forget.
Best,
Jennifer astrologywriter@comcast.net
PS: Since you said it was okay to include your email address, I am posting it here. I hope you don't get overwhelmed with letters from people expecting you to be Miss Cleo!

Their birth charts do look pretty compatible, and I think you're right - they're both going to want to become parents. I think they'd be a good mum and pop, protecting their kids from the limelight. (Much like fellow Leo Madonna does with her two kids.)
Thanks again for writing, and keep on doing readings. It sounds like you are developing some strong psychic talents. I always tell people that the best way to enhance your intuition is to keep regular journals of your impressions, hunches, and dreams. Over time, your radar will pick up on things that can be verified, only you have to keep track of what you predicted! It's so easy to forget.
Best,

PS: Since you said it was okay to include your email address, I am posting it here. I hope you don't get overwhelmed with letters from people expecting you to be Miss Cleo!

La La La La La Libra!
Hey you Librans, how's your love life? Things should be looking up for you, now that Venus the lust planet is doing a slinky lambada through your sign. It moves out of Libra and into Scorpio on October 10th, leaving behind it a sensual trail of lacy underthings, globs of chocolate sauce, and streaks of whipped crème (or whatever else you and your honey have been indulging in over the past three and a half weeks.)
Communicator Mercury lines up with Venus in Libra from October 8th through October 10th, creating an intense window of intimacy for all sun signs. Maybe you'll finally confess to your elementary school sweetheart how much you're still hankerin' for him after all of these years. Perhaps you'll craft a saucy limerick for your secret flame and leave it taped to her car windshield. You might even write a sexy short story containing equal parts perspiration and exhilaration and email it to your honey of the moment.
You Air signs out there will be receiving double doses of happy vibes, what with Mercury and Venus working together in your sign for the first part of the month. So if you're a Gemini, Libra, or Aquarius, enjoy this magical time. Now, when you submit 100 resumes, you'll receive 100 responses. No longer will your best efforts disappear down an employment black hole, as they seemed to do for the past 11 months. Suddenly, you're the man (or the woman) of the hour, with people madly competing for a share of your attention.
Aries folks, hang tight. Libra is opposite your sign, which means that this could be a challenging time for you. Your love life resembles a bad episode of Ally McBeal, complete with creepy dancing baby or a drugged out Robert Downey, Jr. And finances? Oy! Let's just say that you are shouldering more than your share of the national debt at the moment.
But things will get better. Look for serious signs of improvement from November 23rd to December 22nd, when the sun tiptoes through Sagittarius. The friendly fire of this sign will warm you up and create a toasty glow throughout your whole life. Just hang tight 'til then, ya hear?
Email me if you want to vent about the stars (Aries) or confess some sexy secrets (Libra, Gemini, and Aquarius.)
