Indian Horoscopes: March 2014

Incase you haven’t read your monthly Indian Horoscope that was featured in the latest edition of RezX Magazine: Here it is, courtesy of astrologist, Bill Stevenson.

Kisê-pîsim – The Great Moon – Deer – January.

Plan on planting a garden this year. Look at the land surrounding your home and choose a spot with lots of sun! It’s easier than you think; google it, buy a book, ask a friend. But however you get ready, make sure and plan it out first. And don’t be afraid to make it a bit bigger than you need, your neighbours could use a few additions of veggies to their diets as well! Find some gardening tips at the Piapot pow wow!

Mikisiwi-pîsim – The Eagle Moon – Eagle – February

No one remembers who got 4th place buddy. Train hard, push yourself, and practice it one more time. I know you just can’t wait for the North American Indigenous Games but trust me; you want to be in top form. Because not only are the other athletes going to be trying to knock you off, but they’ll succeed if you don’t take your practicing seriously. Determination. Practice. Focus.

Niski-pîsim – The Goose Moon – Cougar – March

Dropped your iPhone in your cup of water again, eh? This time try taking it out of its Otter Box before you put it in a dish of rice first. Works much faster I tell ya! But while you wait for your phone to dry out, grab a friend and plan a trip to Manito Ahbee this year. Road trips are always great times and you and your friends know the secret to a good one is AC/DC and a package of Twizzlers!

Ayikî-pîsim – The Frog Moon – Beaver – April

You see your cuzzin’s working the pipelines or making money mining potash and you worry about your relations when you go out to protest. But you have a job to do and that means stepping in to protect Mother Earth when no one else will. So this summer as everyone else hits the pow wows in their camper trailers and gas guzzling 4×4’s you will be a twig in the dam holding back complete environmental destruction. And you are at peace with that.

Sâkipakâwi-pîsim – The Budding Moon – Bear – May

You’ve fought a good fight and you’ve left your mark and many people are patting you on the back for a job well done. But they are also starting to wonder if you’re just a one trick pony – over ten years in the field and you have yet to branch out your endeavours. Take a chance! Prove them wrong! Plan to announce your retirement at the First Nations University Pow Wow and move onto bigger and better things!

Pâskâwihowi-pîsim – The Hatching Moon – Thunderbird – June

I’m warning you now to just stay away from Treaty 4, eh. You’ll never place more than 2nd there! That weekend head over to Regina and go play bingo with your aunties, when they win (you’ll come a close second there as well) they’ll take care of you, feed you and put gas in your car too! That way when your cuzzin’s come back with their first place winnings, you can say you were spending quality time with family!

Paskowi-Pîsim – The Moulting Moon – Coyote – July

Dance hard at Carry the Kettle this year! Your next snag will be watching you and secretly taking pictures of you sweating it old style! When you see your pictures pop up on Facebook you’ll know who it is! Hit them up and get ready for a summer of Indian loving! (No! Not that kind, the good kind!)

Ohpahowi-pîsim – The Flying Up Moon – Mouse – August

Casinos! Poker tournaments! Roulette tables! After a hard day of work, you want nothing to do with the fast paced world of gaming, but your sister doesn’t understand that. Always trying to take you to bingo or one of those other casinos to play! Break away from her this summer and relax over at the Cowessess Tradish Pow wow, cool kukom tea, not a casino for miles and a golf course too! Relax! You’ve earned it!

Nôcihitowi-pîsim – The Mating Moon – Salmon – September

Aye! School is almost done for another year and you can smell summer underneath the still frozen snow. But don’t coast now, finish fast and hard! The way a warrior should! Remember when you said you wanted that certificate and you were going to get it? You’re almost there, don’t give up now! Your ancestors are cheering you on and waiting to be proud!

Pinaskâwi-pîsim – The Migrating Moon – Turtle – October

Hey, if you’re not careful, your snag from the FSIN pow wow is going to find out about your snag from Beardy’s, and that one is going to find out about the snag from Northern Lights! Stay home for a while. Otherwise, gopher is going to dig more holes in your stories and make it even harder to keep your partner happy at home. Because you know, when she’s on to you, her whole family is on to you!

Iyikopiwi-pîsim – The Frost Moon – Wolf – November

Colonized, decolonized, you know what’s up. You love your family, you learn when you don’t know, you teach what you do, you get it. Some people just want to judge you because you’re too white, or too Indian, or not gangsta enough or too clean cut or by whatever standards they think. You do what the Creator sent you here to do. Love. And you’ll be fine. Join an inter-tribal at Standing Buffalo and give thanks.

Pawâcakinasîsi-pîsim – The Frost Exploding Trees Moon – Spider – December

Remember that dream you had where you were dancing pow wow and you kept winning contest after contest and you just couldn’t be beat? Yeah, it means you need to practice more! Walking down the street and hear a beat? Bust a move! Jamming at school and a deadly drum line comes on? Pound those feet! Sitting in the back yard and enjoying the sun? Grab your iPad, play some pow wow tunes and dance! In fact, every chance you get, pull a Lady Gaga and Just Dance!
