Quote of the Day:
"Puberty is the sickest joke God plays on us. So you're just noticing members of the other sex: "Girls girls, oooh". Naturally you want to look your best, and God says "No! You will look the worst you've ever looked in your life!"
- Eddie Izzard

The Week of Youth and Ease. The Aquarius 2 period takes Youth and Ease as its central image. Paradoxically, this period can be related in human terms to the years of a person's early to mid seventies. In fact, a bond with children may spring up at this time (particularly one's own grandchildren), and thus the maturity of wisdom of old age can mesh with the open and wonder-filled world of the child. At this stage of life very youthful impulses can surface - indeed, some report a kind of 'second childhood'.
