I must not have been paying attention to what the Tibetan astrologers
were saying. For me 12/13 was wonderful, 24/25 and 36/37 were among the
worst years of my life, and 60/61 has been the best year of my life. Who
knows whether I'll live to see how things are 12 years from now.

Good heavens, how on earth can one avoid starting something new? 

I'm beginning to get the impression that Chinese and Tibetan astrology
as every bit as useless as their Western counterparts. But maybe I'm
just recovering from a bad rang-lo.
